SERVICE DATE AND TERM

1.1 Term: The initial term of this Agreement is one month, and shall automatically renew at the end of the term and each month thereafter, unless one party notifies the other party of its intent not to renew at least fifteen (15) days prior to the end of this Agreement. 

SERVICES

2.1 Scope of Services to be Provided:  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and solely for the duration of this Agreement, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide authorized Users of the Client (each, a “User,” collectively, ”Users”) access to the Application and the Services. The term “Services” includes all the software, applications, widgets, tools, and functionality made available through the Services, including our platform, the help desk system, and related support services.  Any new features which augment or enhance the current Services, including the release of new features or products, including those that require additional fees, are also included in the term “Services.”   However, the term “Services” does not include Professional Services.  “Professional Services” means any services we provide in addition to your use of the above-mentioned software, such as human resources consultations, which will be governed by a separate agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and solely for the duration of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants the Client and Users a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, nontransferable, license to access and use the Application, solely for internal business purposes as set forth herein. In addition, if the Application or the Company directs a User to call one of the Company’s nurses, then a User shall have access to the Services.  The Company will report to the Client the use and results of the Application and the Services on a regular basis, as agreed between the parties.   

2.2 Medical and Emergency Care Exclusion: Neither the Application nor the Services are intended to provide medical or emergency care for any conditions. If the Company receives a call that is assessed as an emergency, the Company will immediately direct the User to hang up and access the local emergency medical services.  The Client shall make Users aware of this policy so as not to delay emergency care. 

III. PAYMENT FOR SERVICES

3.3 Payments and Terms: Payment from the Client to the Company shall be due: (a) for Fees (as defined on the Services Quote), on a monthly basis, charged on a day of each month selected by the Company for Services for that month, and (b) for Usage Based Fees (as defined on Services Quote) and only if client agrees to Opt-In, on a monthly basis, charged on a day of the month selected by the Company for usage based fees for the preceding month.  The amounts stated on the Services Quote, plus any taxes, assessment or charges, will be charged to the Client’s credit card or ACH on file with the Company. The Company shall also have the right to charge the Client’s credit card or ACH for any partial months or weeks. The Client shall pay the entire amount due to the Company without offset or deduction.  If the Company believes in good faith that the Client‘s ability to make payments may be impaired or if the Client shall fail to pay any invoice when due, the Company may suspend Service until such payment is made or cancel Service, and the Client shall remain liable to pay for any Service already rendered.  Any payment received from the Client may be applied by the Company against any obligation owing from the Client to the Company. The Client shall pay interest on any amount due to the Company not paid when due from the due date to the date of payment at the rate of one and one-half (1-1/2%) percent per month or such lower rate as may be the maximum allowable by law.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein, if the Client fails to make payment when due, the Company may pursue any legal or equitable remedies, in which event the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement for costs of collection and reasonable attorneys’ fees.
