Any agreement, term sheet or cover letter executed by the parties with reference to these terms and conditions (“Engagement Document”), online registration terms, and these Isolocity Terms and Conditions shall be referred to herein as the “Agreement”. In the event of a conflict between these Isolocity Terms and Conditions and an applicable Engagement Document, the terms and conditions of the Engagement Document shall govern with respect to the conflict. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary contained in any purchase order or other document issued by Client (“Client Issued Document”), as between the terms and conditions of the Client Issued Document and this Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall prevail. Any additional or conflicting legal terms or conditions contained in any Client Issued Document are hereby expressly rejected and shall be of no force or effect.
With respect to any non-disclosure agreement entered into by the Parties, in the event of a conflict between these Isolocity Terms and Conditions and the terms of the non-disclosure agreement, the non-disclosure agreement will govern over Section 10 with respect to the treatment of Confidential Information only. The non-disclosure agreement will not otherwise effect or take precedence over any other term of this Agreement, including but not limited to, Section 9 (Intellectual Property), 11 (Warranties and Disclaimers), 12 (Indemnification and IP Infringement) and 13 (Limitations on Liability).
The Isolocity Terms and Conditions posted on Isolocity’s website (available at https://www.isolocity.com/software-terms-and-conditions/) are effective as of the date accepted by the Client, which may be either in writing, electronically through a website, by email acceptance, or otherwise, or upon receipt of the Services by the Client, whichever occurs first.
Unless otherwise agreed in an Engagement Document, CJB reserves the right to make changes to this Agreement. CJB will notify Client of changes by: (a) posting a notice in the Isolocity Solution for a period of 30 days before such changes will become effective (“Effective Change Date”); and/or (b) sending Client an email notification of such changes at least 30 days prior to the Effective Change Date. As of the Effective Change Date, the most current and up to date version of this Agreement will be accessible on the website or through the Isolocity Solution, and the continued use of the Isolocity Solution or any Services will signify continued acceptance to the revised Agreement.

Client can add teams for the Fee as set out in the applicable Engagement Document or during the registration process.

CJB expressly reserves the right to modify or amend the Isolocity Solution by introducing modifications, changes, enhancements, new versions and new releases to all or part of the Isolocity Solution from time to time. CJB uses artificial intelligence tools (“AI Tool(s)”) for the provision and improvement of its Services, including by analysing your Client Data to facilitate enhancements and suggestions that are designed to improve the experience and functionality of the Services. During the initial phase of implementation, Client may be required to share with CJB certain Client Data, including documents, templates, and other relevant data, and AI Tools may be used for the configuration of such Client Data into the Isolocity Solution. In addition, CJB may use Client Data to train the AI Tools for the improvement of its services. If you do not wish to have your Client Data used for AI Tool training, you may opt out by providing us with written notice at support@isolocity.com. By using the Isolocity Solution or Services, Client consents to the use of such AI Tools.
2.11. The Client will not, and will ensure that its Users do not:
(a) use the Isolocity Solution in any way that is in violation of the laws applicable to Client (including all privacy and anti-spam legislation);

(c) post, send or otherwise make available through the Services any material that:
(i) contains any virus, trojan, worm or similar deleterious program that may damage or interfere with the operation of any aspect of the Isolocity Solution;

2.12. Where the Isolocity Solution limits the number of Users, and in the event that the Client’s number of Users at any time exceeds the agreed to number and/or function, the Client agrees to pay to CJB such Fees as would have applied if such users had been agreed to by the parties. Client may request licenses to additional Authorized Users, and agrees to pay the applicable Fees for such additional licenses in accordance with CJB’s then current rates.
2.13. CJB may at any time suspend or limit the Client’s access to or use of the Isolocity Solution if it reasonably believes that Client is in breach of this Agreement.
2.14.

In the event that Client wishes to purchase additional Consulting and Implementation Services, CJB and Client will execute Engagement Document setting out the applicable service terms. For clarity, Fees associated with certain implementations may be included in the price agreed in the Engagement Document or through the online portal, and would therefore not be a separate, chargeable feature.

2.17. Our Services may integrate with or use certain third-party applications, websites, and services (collectively “Third-Party Services“) to assist in the provision of the Services.

By using the Services, or providing Isolocity with Personal Information, Client agrees to CJB’s use, collection, processing, and disclosure of Personal Information in accordance with its Privacy Policy.
2.18. You may also access certain Third-Party Services through the use of our Services. Your access and use of any Third-Party Services is governed solely by the terms of service, privacy policies, and other governing documents of those third parties.

The “Initial Term” and “Renewal Term” are collectively referred to as the “Term”. For clarity, annual and month-to-month Set Terms are not interchangeable, meaning that if a Client has registered for an annual subscription, it cannot thereafter switch to a monthly subscription.

Unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Agreement, or either party provides a notice of non-renewal in accordance Section 7.1(c), such Initial Term shall automatically renew for successive 1 year or monthly Renewal Terms, whichever is applicable in accordance with the Service chosen.
(c) Notice of Non-Renewal: (i) Where the Term is on an annual (or longer) basis, either party may provide to the other party written notice, at least 90 days in advance of the expiration of the relevant Term, that it does not intend to renew the Agreement with the result that the Agreement will expire, and the Services will be terminated at the end of the then current Term.

Any pre-paid Fees are non-refundable.
7.2. The following applies with respect to the Term:
(a) Termination by Client of the Agreement. (i) If the Term is on a month-to-month basis, Client may terminate the Agreement, in whole or in part, for convenience upon 90 days’ notice to CJB. (ii) If the Term is on an annual (or longer) basis, Client may terminate the Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time before the end of the relevant Term by giving notice of termination to CJB at least 90 days before the proposed early termination date. In both (i) and (ii), Client shall be responsible for paying 100% of all Fees payable to CJB for the remainder of Initial Term or Renewal Term, as the case may be, and for Fees due up to the effective date of termination. Any pre-paid Fees are non-refundable.

Subject to any restrictions in the Engagement Document: (i) If the Term is on a month-to-month basis, Client may scale down from the total number of Authorized Users or teams (whichever is applicable) upon providing CJB with 90 days’ written notice. (ii) If the Term is on an annual (or longer) basis, the Client may scale down from the total number of Authorized Users or teams (whichever is applicable) only upon providing 90 days’ written notice prior to the end of the then current Term. For clarity, the Client may not scale down the total number of Authorized Users at any time during the Term other than as set out in this Section 7.2(c). Any pre-paid Fees are non-refundable.
7.3. CJB may terminate the Agreement, or Client’s access to the Services, in whole or in part, for convenience upon 90 days’ notice to Client. Any pre-paid Fees are non-refundable.
7.4. Either party may terminate the Agreement or any part thereof for cause at any time by written notice to the other party if:
(a) the other party breaches any term of the Agreement and fails to remedy such breach within 30 days after receipt of notice requiring it to do so; or
(b) the other party becomes insolvent, has a receiver or trustee in bankruptcy appointed, enters into liquidation, is subject to an arrangement for protection from its creditors, fails to comply with a statutory demand or is otherwise unable to pay its debts when due.
For clarity, any pre-paid Fees are non-refundable.
8. Audit
8.1. CJB shall have the right at its own expense, to perform an inspection of the Client’s relevant records and systems solely for the purpose of ensuring compliance with the requirements of the Agreement, including access to the correct amount of Authorized User licenses.
