Levellr agrees to:

(a) make the Services available to Customer in accordance with any active Order and this Agreement

5. Term

5.1 Term of this Agreement

This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and shall remain in effect until all of Customer’s Orders have expired or have been terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (the “Term”). The “Effective Date” of this Agreement shall be the date specified in Customer’s initial Order, or the start date of a trial or, if such Order was submitted online, the date Customer submits the online Order. If Customer is using the Services pursuant to a trial Account and does not submit an Order prior to the conclusion of the trial period, this Agreement will terminate at the end of the trial period or, if later, the date Levellr closes such trial Account.

5.2 Term of Orders

The initial term of each Order shall commence on the date specified in the Order or, if such Order was submitted online, the date Customer submits the online Order (the “Order Effective Date”). Unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Agreement, each Order shall remain in effect for 1 year from the Order Effective Date (unless a different term is set forth in Customer’s Order) (“Initial Term”), following which the Order shall automatically renew for successive 1-year periods on the first day following the end of the Initial Term (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either party hereto has provided notice to the other of non-renewal at least 60 days in advance of the end of the Initial Term or, if applicable, the current Renewal Term. Notwithstanding the prior sentence, all Orders for free Accounts, unless earlier terminated by either Customer or Levellr, shall not automatically renew, but shall remain in effect for the period of time indicated during the Account registration process. Fees for the Services shall automatically increase by 5% each year after the Initial Term unless otherwise specified in the Order.

5.3 Termination

Unless otherwise prohibited by law, either party may terminate this Agreement, including any outstanding Orders, if:

(a) the other party is adjudicated bankrupt or otherwise seeks to avoid its performance obligations under applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws;

(b) upon the occurrence of a material breach of this Agreement by the other party if such breach is not cured within 30 days after written notice identifying the matter constituting the material breach.

In the event of the termination or expiration of this Agreement, all licenses granted under this Agreement shall terminate automatically. Upon an early termination of this Agreement for any reason, all current Orders shall terminate and, unless such termination resulted from a material, uncured breach of this Agreement by Levellr, all fees and expenses payable under any such Orders shall become immediately due and payable. The parties agree that, in such a termination, Levellr’s damages may be difficult to ascertain, therefore the parties agree that Customer shall pay to Levellr seventy-five percent (75%) of the remaining amounts payable under any terminated Orders as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty.

5.4 Removal and Suspension

Levellr reserves the right, without notice or liability to Customer, to remove any Content from the Services and/or suspend Customer’s access to or use of the Services in its sole discretion if it believes that (a) Customer has violated its obligations under this Agreement, (b) that such removal is required by applicable law, (c) that Customer use of the Services represents a direct or indirect threat to the network function or integrity of the Services, (d) such suspension is necessary to prevent unauthorized access to or harm to Content or data of other Levellr customers; (e) such suspension is necessary to comply with Levellr’s legal obligations, or (f) Customer’s account has become inactive. Levellr further reserves the right to remove any Content from the Services and/or render Content inaccessible to the public upon request from a third party asserting ownership of rights in such Content. Customer is solely responsible for creating backup copies of any Content.

6. Billing

For Customers who subscribe to Levellr’s online products, Customers are required to pay the monthly or annual subscription fees at the beginning of each negotiated billing period immediately after completing the purchasing process. Levellr will process the payment method using the information provided by Customer during the purchasing process.

If Customer incurs any overages, these will be billed at the end of the relevant billing period, as defined in Customer’s subscription. Levellr will process the payment method using the information provided by Customer during the purchasing process.

It is Customer’s responsibility to notify Levellr of any change to such payment information. If Customer does not wish to use the same payment method or information for making the payment for renewal, Customer shall contact Levellr and make the change.

If Customer does not choose to cancel a subscription before the expiration of the current subscription period, the subscription will be automatically renewed for another identical period of time, based on the initial subscription. In either such case of automatic renewal, Levellr will charge the payment method on Customer’s account for the renewal subscription fee using the payment information Customer last provided Levellr.

Customer’s access to the Services may be suspended if Customer fails to fully pay any existing balance. LEVELLR MAY NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR ANY DISRUPTION IN THE SUPPLY OF THE SERVICES IF CUSTOMER FAILS TO NOTIFY IT OF ANY CHANGE PURSUANT TO THE FOREGOING PRIOR TO THE OCCURRENCE THEREOF.

Customer is responsible for the payment of all applicable taxes in connection to Customer’s subscription of the Services; provided, however, that Levellr reserves the right to collect and pay taxes to the relevant authorities when it, in its sole discretion, believes that applicable law requires it to do so.

6.1 Usage-based billing

In the event Customer’s Services include a limit on the number of units included in Customer’s subscription, the units shall be defined as follows.

“Community Members” shall mean the number of users that have opted-in to data sharing and/or joined the community channels

“Monthly fees” shall mean any fees incurred by Customer in a month’s worth of subscription, including any overages.

“Overages” shall mean any fees incurred by Customer for usage of the platform beyond the limits included in a subscription, at the price specified in such subscription.

6.2 User subscriptions

Some elements of the Service are only accessible to paying users, for example if you enable paid-to-access Community Channels. There are fees associated with accessing these elements of the Service (“Paywall Service”) and full details of the fees payable (“Fees”) are available at https://www.levellr.com/pricing.

Depending on the type of subscription you purchase, your Community Channels may be subject to certain limitations and caps, such as a cap on the total number of End Users that may access your Community Channels. You may pay additional Fees to increase these limitations. If your Community exceeds the limitations or caps applicable to your subscription, we will automatically charge the applicable Fees detailed at https://www.levellr.com/pricing.

We may change the Fees, but these changes won’t take effect during your current subscription period and we will let you know of any changes 30 days in advance (either via email or via a prominent notice in the Service) so that you have the chance to cancel your subscription if you do not wish to pay the new Fees. New Fees will not apply retroactively.

New features will not automatically be included in existing subscriptions.

Your access to Paywall Services will continue for as long as you pay the Fees or until these Terms are terminated.

If you set up a Paywall Service you may use the functionality offered via the Service, such as offering your End Users subscriptions that provide access to certain Community Channels. Paywall Service functionality is provided by our payment partner Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”). Levellr does not provide payment services, but we may provide you with the information necessary to integrate Stripe’s payment services into your Community Channels.

If you set up a Paywall Service you must connect your Stripe account to your Levellr account. If you don’t have a Stripe account, you must set one up. When setting up your Stripe account, you must review and accept any Stripe terms and policies that apply. If you don’t agree with the Stripe terms and policies that apply to you, you must not set up the Paywall Service. If you are unable to set up a Stripe account (for example, because you do not meet Stripe’s eligibility criteria), you will not be able to set up a Paywall Service.

You are responsible for checking for and paying any taxes that may apply in relation to your Paywall Service.

We may suspend your access to Paywall Service if you don’t comply with these Terms or our Community Guidelines.

Annex B

California Specific Provisions

The following terms apply to the processing of Personal Data where the Customer is an individual resident of the State of California.

These California Specific Provisions provide additional information about how Levellr collects, uses, discloses and otherwise processes personal information of individual residents of the State of California, either online or offline, within the scope of the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”).

Unless otherwise expressly stated, all terms in these California Specific Provisions have the same meaning as defined in our Terms of Service or as otherwise defined in the CCPA.

Personal Information Disclosures

The term “personal information” in these California Specific Provisions shall mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household.

Collection and Use of Personal Information

In the last 12 months, Levellr has collected the categories of personal information identified in the Privacy Policy.

Disclosure of Personal Information

In the previous 12 months, Levellr has disclosed all of the categories of personal information collected as detailed in Privacy Policy, to third parties for a business purpose.

Levellr does not “sell” personal information as most people would typically understand that term. However, Levellr does allow certain third-party partners and providers to collect information about consumers directly through the platform for purposes of analysing and optimising the platform, measuring statistics, and detecting and reporting fraud. To the extent this practice is interpreted to constitute a “sale” under the CCPA, please refer to the Global Privacy Policy for more information including how to exercise any rights to opt-out of cookies and analytics.

Customer’s California Privacy Rights

As a California resident, Customer may be able to exercise the following rights in relation to the personal information about Customer that Levellr has collected (subject to certain limitations at law):

Right to Know. Customer has the right to request that Levellr disclose to Customer the categories and specific pieces of personal information Levellr has collected about Customer as well as information about how Levellr collects, uses, discloses, and “sells” personal information.

Right to Request Deletion. Customer has the right to request the deletion of personal information that Levellr has collected from Customer, subject to certain exceptions.

The Right to Opt Out of Personal Information Sales. Customer has the right to direct Levellr not to sell personal information Levellr has collected about Customer to third parties now or in the future.

The Right to Non-Discrimination. Customer has the right not to receive discriminatory treatment for exercising any of the rights described above.

However, please note that if the exercise of the rights described above limits Levellr’s ability to process personal information (such as in the case of a deletion request), Levellr may no longer be able to provide to the Customer its products or Services or engage with Customer in the same manner.

How to Exercise Customer’s California Privacy Rights

To Exercise Customer’s Right to Know or Right to Deletion

To exercise Customer’s right to know and/or right to deletion, Customer must submit a request by emailing Levellr at [email protected] with the subject line “California Rights Request”.

Levellr will need to verify Customer’s identity before processing Customer’s request. In order to verify Customer’s identity, Levellr will generally require the matching of sufficient information Customer provides Levellr to the information Levellr maintains about Customer in its systems and/or by other means. Certain requests may require Levellr to obtain additional personal information from Customer.

To Exercise Customer’s Right to Opt Out of Personal Information Sales

Levellr allows certain third-party partners and providers to collect information about consumers directly through the platform for purposes of analysing and optimising the platform, measuring statistics, and detecting and reporting fraud. To the extent this practice is interpreted to constitute a “sale” under the CCPA, please refer to the Global Privacy Policy for more information including how to exercise any rights to opt-out of cookies and analytics.
