Fees and expenses; payments

  1. Fees. In consideration for the access rights granted to Customer and the services performed by Norby under this Agreement, and unless otherwise specified in an Order, Customer will pay to Norby the fees set forth on the Norby Pricing webpage (collectively, the “Fees”).  Except as otherwise provided in an applicable Order, all Fees hereunder are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis and are due and payable to Norby within thirty (30) days of the end of the billing cycle.  Norby reserves the right to change the Fees or its pricing model at any time during the Term provided that any such change will go into effect no earlier than thirty (30) days after the change is posted to the Norby Pricing webpage, and provided further that if the Fees are specified in an Order, no changes to the Fees will become effective until the expiration of the then-current subscription term covered by that Order. Norby reserves the right (in addition to any other rights or remedies Norby may have) to discontinue the Norby Service and suspend all Authorized Users’ and Customer’s access to the Norby Service if any fees are more than thirty (30) days overdue until such amounts are paid in full.
  2. Payment. Customer shall pay Norby the Fees stated on the pricing page of the Website, in Customer’s Account, in an Order, or as otherwise specified in this Agreement. All Fees are quoted in United States Dollars, and except as otherwise agreed upon in an Order, all payment obligations under this Agreement are non-cancelable and all Fees paid are non-refundable. Customer must provide Norby with valid credit card or payment information as prompted by the Norby Service as a condition for signing up for the Norby Service. If Customer provides credit card information, Customer represents that Customer are authorized to use the card and Customer authorizes Norby to charge that card for all payments for which Customer are responsible hereunder. By submitting payment information, Customer authorizes Norby to provide that payment information to third parties for purposes of their facilitation of payment. Customer agrees to verify any information requested by Norby for purposes of acknowledging or completing any payment for which Customer is responsible, and will immediately notify Customer of any change in Customer’s billing address or the credit card or other payment information used for payments hereunder.
  3. Taxes.  The fees are exclusive of, and Customer will pay, all sales, use, excise and other taxes and applicable export and import fees, customs duties and similar charges that may be levied upon Customer in connection with this Agreement, except for employment taxes for Norby employees and taxes based on Norby’s net income.
  4. Interest.  Any amounts not paid when due shall bear interest at the rate of one and one half percent (1.5%) per month, or the maximum legal rate if less.
  5. Records; Audit.  Customer will permit Norby or its representatives to review Customer’s relevant records and inspect Customer’s facilities to ensure compliance with this Agreement.  Norby will give Customer at least ten (10) days advance notice of any such inspection and will conduct the same during normal business hours in a manner that does not unreasonably interfere with Customer’s normal operations. If any such audit should disclose any underpayment of fees, Customer shall promptly pay Norby such underpaid amount, together with interest thereon at the rate specified in this section.  If the amount of such underpayment exceeds five percent (5%) of fees actually paid during the audited period, Customer shall also pay Norby for Norby’s expenses associated with such audit.
  6. Payments for Customer Events.  Norby is integrated with certain third-party payment processors (each a "Payment Processor") (which may include Stripe, Apple Pay, and Google Pay) to accept payment by End Users to Customer for Customer Events and related charges.  The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of the Payment Processor in addition to this Agreement. Norby is not responsible for error by the Payment Processor. By choosing to collect payments utilizing the Payment Processor, Customer agrees to pay to the Payment Processor all charges by the Payment Processor, in accordance with the applicable payment terms, either as a charge to Customer’s chosen payment method ("Payment Method") or as a pass-through reimbursement to Norby. Such charges may include state and local sales tax, the amount of which varies. Customer agrees to make payment using that selected Payment Method. Norby reserves the right to correct any charge or payment errors, even if it has already requested or received payment. Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) its sales through the Norby Service are transactions between Customer and the End User of such purchases, and not with Norby or any of its affiliates; and (ii) Norby is not a party to Customer’s payment transaction for such sales and Norby is not a buyer or a seller in connection with such transactions.

Customer is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all Customer Content made available in connection with a Customer Event. The Norby Service allows Customer to connect with End Users through the Norby Service. Because Norby is not involved in the actual contract between Customer and End Users, or in the completion of the sale of any Customer Events, in the event that Customer has a dispute with one or more End Users, CUSTOMER RELEASES NORBY (AND NORBY’S AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS, INVESTORS, SUBSIDIARIES, AND EMPLOYEES) FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS, OR DAMAGES (ACTUAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL) OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED AND UNSUSPECTED, DISCLOSED AND UNDISCLOSED, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NORBY’S AND ITS AFFILIATES’, SUPPLIERS’, CONTRACTORS’, AND LICENSORS’ AGGREGATE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY UNDER OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE NORBY SERVICE AND THE NORBY SYSTEM) WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY CUSTOMER TO NORBY FOR THE USE AND ACCESS TO THE NORBY SERVICE AND THE NORBY SYSTEM DURING THE SIX (6) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT WHICH GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM.  IT IS EXPRESSLY UNDERSTOOD AND AGREED THAT IN THE EVENT ANY REMEDY HEREUNDER IS DETERMINED TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE, ALL LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY AND EXCLUSIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH HEREIN WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT.

In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is necessary for the Receiving Party to enforce its rights under this Agreement or is required by law or by the order of a court or similar judicial or administrative body, provided that (to the extent legally permissible) the Receiving Party promptly notifies the Disclosing Party in writing of such required disclosure and cooperates with the Disclosing Party if the Disclosing Party seeks an appropriate protective order.

Indemnification

By Norby

Norby will defend at its expense any suit brought against Customer, and will pay any settlement Norby makes or approves, or any damages finally awarded in such suit, insofar as such suit is based on a claim by any third party alleging that the Norby Service, Licensed Content or the Norby System infringes, misappropriates or violates any third party Intellectual Property Rights.  If any portion of the Norby Service or the Norby System becomes, or in Norby’s opinion is likely to become, the subject of a claim of infringement, Norby may, at Norby’s option: (a) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Norby Service or the Norby System; (b) replace the Norby Service or the Norby System with non-infringing software or services which do not materially impair the functionality of the Norby Service or the Norby System; (c) modify the Norby Service or the Norby System so that it becomes non-infringing; or (d) terminate this Agreement and refund any fees actually paid by Customer to Norby for the remainder of the term then in effect, and upon such termination, Customer will immediately cease all use of the Norby Service, Norby System, and Documentation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Norby shall have no obligation under this section or otherwise with respect to any infringement claim based upon (x) any use of the Norby Service, Licensed Content or the Norby System not in accordance with this Agreement or as specified in the Documentation; (y) any use of the Norby Service or the Norby System in combination with other products, equipment, software or data not supplied by Norby; or (z) any modification of the Norby Service or the Norby System by any person other than Norby or its authorized agents (collectively, “Exclusions”).  This Section states Norby’s entire liability and Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for the claims and actions described herein.
