Updated: 02/15/2023

This constitutes the Software License and Services Agreement (this “Agreement“) between STOCKPRESS CORPORATION (“Stockpress“), and you (“You” or “Client“). Stockpress and Client are entering into this Agreement in order to memorialize the terms and conditions under which Stockpress will grant to Client a license to use the Software (defined below) and render the Services (defined below).

By clicking the “accept” button, (A) You accept this Agreement and agree that You are legally bound by its terms; and (B) You represent and warrant that: (i) You are of legal age to enter into a binding agreement and (ii) You have the right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and bind Client to its terms. This Agreement comprises the entire agreement between Stockpress and Client and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements, promises, representations, or descriptions pertaining to the subject matter contained herein. If You do not agree with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, You may not download, access, install or use the Software or the Services.

1. GENERAL.

Software. Stockpress has developed and is the owner of all right, title and interest in a digital asset management platform and its related components, titled “Stockpress” (the “Software“), which includes online document storage, file sharing, hosting and asset management. Client wishes to obtain a license to use the Software, and Stockpress hereby licenses the Software to Client in accordance with this Agreement.
Upgrades. Stockpress, at its sole discretion, may make available future upgrades or updates to the Software. Upgrades or updates, if any, may not necessarily include all existing software features or new features that Stockpress releases. The terms of this Agreement will govern any software upgrades or updates provided by Stockpress that replace and/or supplement the original Software, unless such upgrade or update is accompanied by a separate license in which case the terms of that license will govern.

Reproduction of Materials. To the extent that the Software may be used to reproduce materials, it is licensed to Client only for reproduction of non-copyrighted materials, materials in which Client owns the copyright, or materials Client is authorized or legally permitted to reproduce. If Client is uncertain about Client’s right to copy any material, Client should consult a legal advisor.

2. LICENSE AND RELATED MATTERS.

Grant of License and Reservation of Rights.  Stockpress hereby grants to Client a limited, nontransferable, nonexclusive license to use the Software during the Term (as defined below) solely on the terms set forth herein. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Stockpress reserves all rights in and to the Software. Client expressly acknowledges and understands that the Software is licensed to Client, not sold. Accordingly, except for the limited license granted to Client hereunder, Stockpress retains all right, title and interest in and to the Software and related media and documentation, all copies thereof, and all proprietary rights therein, including any copyrights, trademarks, patents, and trade secret rights. Stockpress reserves the right to use, and to license other third parties to use, the Software for any purpose Stockpress may determine, during the Term (defined below) or otherwise.

Use of the Software.  While Client uses Stockpress’ digital asset management, document storing and document sharing services via the Software, Client shall be entitled to use the Software interactively, as necessary in furtherance of Client’s needs and specific functional requests, if any.

Data Processing. Stockpress will use, at a minimum, industry standard technical and organizational security measures to store and process Client’s data (“Client Data”) through the Software. These measures are designed to protect the integrity of Client Data and guard against the unauthorized or unlawful access to, use and processing of Client Data. Client agrees that Stockpress may store and process Client Data in the United States and locations other than the Client’s country. To the extent that Client Data is subject to EU Data Protection Laws and is processed by Stockpress as a data processor acting on the Client’s behalf (as a data controller), Stockpress will use and process such Client Data as the Client instructs in order to provide the Services and fulfill Stockpress’s obligations under this Agreement. “Client Data” means the files and structured data stored on the Software or submitted to the Software by the Client and the account and contact information created by the Client in connection with Client’s use of the Software.

3. SERVICES.  In connection with Client’s license of the software, Stockpress may render support, troubleshooting and/or related services (the “Services”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

During the Free Account Period, You will be presented with an option to choose a subscription tier upon sign-in to your Stockpress workspace and you will need to select a subscription tier in order to continue using the Software and the Service following the Free Account Period.

In the event Client terminates prior to the end of an applicable annual subscription outside of the Free Account Period, Client shall be entitled to a refund for the remainder of the applicable annual subscription term by reaching out to Stockpress support. Upon any termination of this Agreement, all rights granted to Client hereunder shall automatically terminate and revert to Stockpress, and Client shall immediately and permanently discontinue all use of the Software. Thereafter, neither Client nor any of its affiliates, contractors, receivers, trustees, employees, assignees or other representatives shall have the right to use or in any way deal with or access the Software.

Stockpress may also impose limits on certain features or restrict Client’s access to parts or all of the Software without notice or liability. Client has no interest, monetary or otherwise, in any feature or content contained in the Software.

CONSIDERATION AND RELATED MATTERS.

Subscription Fees. Following the Free Account Period, the Software and the Service are available through monthly and/or annual subscriptions. Subscription fees will be automatically charged to your payment method on file each month or year, as applicable, until You cancel or otherwise terminate your subscription in accordance with Section 4(C) of this Agreement. Stockpress reserves the right to cancel any subscription if Stockpress is unable to successfully charge your payment method on file. All subscription fees are fully earned upon payment. You hereby expressly agree that Stockpress may submit periodic charges (e.g., monthly or annually) without further authorization from you until Stockpress receives written notice from you or until you elect to cancel or terminate your subscription via the Stockpress website.

LIMITATION ON LIABILITY.

Limited Warranties.  Stockpress warrants that the Software, as delivered, will be free of defects in all material respects and will have the functional capabilities for which the Software is intended to be used. If the Software fails to meet the foregoing standards upon delivery, then Stockpress shall at its own expense correct any such defect that is within Stockpress’s control within ten (10) business days of receiving notification of such defect; provided that Stockpress’ sole responsibility, and Client’s sole remedy, under this Agreement with respect to any defect in the Software shall be for Stockpress to use commercially reasonable efforts to correct such defect within ten (10) business days of receiving notice, or if the defect cannot be corrected by Stockpress and is under Stockpress’s control, to refund payments made by Client for the period during which the material defect was present after Client has uninstalled the Software. It is understood that Stockpress is under no obligation to refund payments made by Client if the defect for which the Software is being uninstalled is caused by any third party platform or otherwise outside of Stockpress’s control.

No Other Warranty.
Except for the express warranty set forth in Section 6(A) above, Stockpress is providing the Software on an “as is” basis, and Client’s use of the Software is at its own risk. Stockpress does not make any, and hereby disclaims all, other express and implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement and title, and any warranties arising from course of dealing, usage or trade practice.

Except for the express warranty set forth in Section 6(A) above, Stockpress has not made, and is not now making, any other promises, guarantees, representations or warranties of any kind or nature, express or implied, regarding the Services to be provided hereunder, and Stockpress hereby expressly disclaims all of the same, including any warranty of a particular result or a particular benefit to be realized by Client as a direct or indirect result of the Services to be provided, warranty of fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing, usage or trade practice.

Limits on Liability.
NEITHER STOCKPRESS NOR ANY OF ITS PARENT, SUBSIDIARIES OR AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE TO CLIENT IN ANY WAY FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF THE SOFTWARE AND RELATED SERVICES OR ANY USE OF THE SOFTWARE OR RELATED SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, INACCESSIBILITY TO CONNECT TO THE INTERNET, LOSS OF DATA OR PROPRIETARY INFORMATION, OR ANY RELATED CORRUPTION OR ERROR ASSOCIATED WITH TRANSMISSION OF DATA.
STOCKPRESS SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INTERRUPTIONS OF SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, SERVER DISRUPTIONS, SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE FAILURES, OR ANY OTHER EVENT WHICH MAY RESULT IN A LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF CLIENT DATA OR DISRUPTION OF SERVICE. IN NO EVENT WILL STOCKPRESS BE LIABLE TO CLIENT FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL STOCKPRESS’S LIABILITY, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED (IN THE AGGREGATE) THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY CLIENT TO STOCKPRESS DURING THE NINETY (90) DAYS IMMEDIATELY PRIOR TO THE TIME SUCH CLAIM AROSE. CLIENT HEREBY AGREES TO DEFEND, INDEMNIFY AND HOLD STOCKPRESS HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ANY CLAIM, LIABILITY, LOSS, LOSS OF PROFIT, FINES, PENALTIES, CAUSES OF ACTION, INJURY, COST OR EXPENSE (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) INCURRED BY STOCKPRESS ARISING OUT OF OR FROM CLIENT’S USE OF THE SOFTWARE AND RELATED SERVICES. THIS INDEMNITY PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE THE TERMINATION AND/OR BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE ANY RELATED ADDENDUMS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, CLIENT’S DUTY TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS STOCKPRESS SHALL NOT APPLY WHEN THE CLAIM ARISES OUT OF THE NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF STOCKPRESS, OR THOSE ACTING ON BEHALF OF STOCKPRESS. SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO CLIENT.
