5. Fees. 

5.1 Fees 

The Services may include both paid-for Services, for which you will be charged fees (“Fees”) and free Services for which no fees are charged. The applicable Fees are available on our website or on the subscription portal. We reserve the right to, at any time and from time to time and upon reasonable advance notice to you, in our sole discretion, change the Fees we charge for the Services, including the right to charge Fees for Services that were previously free of charge. We may also at any time and from time to time, in our sole discretion, change or remove any of the pricing models in place. The new prices shall apply as of the calendar month following the notification. In case of refusal of the new prices, you remain free to terminate this Agreement by notifying us before the new prices enter in force. 

5.2 Invoicing and Payment 

Fees are invoiced in advance on monthly basis and payable upon receipt of the invoice by direct debit, credit card or other payment means notified to you at our sole discretion. The first invoice will cover the period from the Effective Date to the end of the then-current month. We may use third party payment service providers to collect any Fees you incur in the course of your use of the Services. Our third party payment service providers may receive and implement updated credit card information from your credit card issuer in order to prevent your payment or subscription from being interrupted by an outdated or invalid card. This disbursement of the updated credit card information is provided to third party payment service providers at the sole election of your credit card issuer. Your credit card issuer may give you the right to opt-out of the update service. Should you desire to do so, please contact your credit card issuer. You agree not to hold us responsible for banking charges incurred due to payments on your account. 

5.3 Late payments 

You acknowledge that your failure to pay any Fees when due may result in suspension or termination of your use of the Services. If you fail to pay any of the fees or charges due hereunder, the Company reserves the right to, among other things, engage an attorney or a collections agency to collect the delinquent fees and charges. You agree to pay all fees and costs incurred by the Company in connection with the collection of such delinquent amounts, including without limitation, any and all court related costs, attorneys’ and/or collections agencies’ fees plus interest in an amount equal to the lesser of 1.0% per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. 

5.4 Taxes 

You are responsible for all sales tax, use tax, value added taxes, withholding taxes and any other similar taxes and charge of any kind imposed by a governmental entity on the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. When we have the legal obligation to pay or collect taxes for which you are responsible pursuant to this Section 5.4, the appropriate amount will be invoiced to and paid by you unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.

6. Customer Support. 

Although we aim to offer you the best service possible, we make no promise that the Services will meet your requirements and we cannot guarantee that the Services will be fault free. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide technical support services to you in the event a fault or other issue with the Services occurs. If a fault or other issue occurs in our Services, please report it to us at support@nabla.com and we will review your complaint and, where we determine it appropriate to do so, correct the fault. 

7. Confidential Information

“Confidential Information” means all information provided or made available by or on behalf of the disclosing party (whether disclosed orally or disclosed or accessed in written, electronic, or other form of media, and whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as “confidential”).

Each party agrees to: (a) take reasonable precautions to protect Confidential Information, and (b) not to use (except in the provision of the Service, or as otherwise permitted herein) or divulge to any third person any Confidential Information. The foregoing restrictions do not apply to: (i) any information that is in the public domain or already in the receiving party’s possession; (ii) was known to the receiving party prior to the date of disclosure; (iii) becomes known to the receiving party thereafter from a third party having an apparent bona fide right to disclose the information; or (iv) Confidential Information that the receiving party is obligated to produce pursuant to a court order or a valid administrative subpoena, providing receiving party provides disclosing party of timely notice of such court order or subpoena (unless receiving party is legally precluded from providing such notice). 

This Section 7 will survive termination or expiration of your use of the Services.

8. Data Protection 

The parties agree to comply with all applicable privacy, data protection, anti spam and other laws, rules, regulations and guidelines relating to protection, collection, use and distribution of Personal Information (as defined below). If required by applicable data protection legislation or other law or regulation, you will inform third parties that you are providing their Personal Information to us for processing and will ensure that any required third parties have given their consent to such disclosure and processing. “Personal Information” means any information that identifies, relates to, describes, or can be reasonably associated with or traced to, directly or indirectly, a particular individual or household, including an individual’s name, address, telephone number, email address, credit card information, social security number or other similar specific factual information, regardless of the media on which such information is stored (e.g., on paper or electronically). 

9.  Patient Information 

As part of using the Services, you agree that you will comply with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to you and/or your business, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”). You represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to any information covered by HIPAA that you use or provide to us as part of your use of the Services. 

If either of you or your organization are subject to HIPAA as a Covered Entity or Business Associate (as defined in HIPAA) and intend to use the Services in a manner that will cause us to create, receive, maintain, or transmit Protected Health Information (“PHI”) on your behalf, then, at the outset of creating an Account to use the Services for yourself or your organization, you and Nabla shall comply with the Business Associate Agreement attached hereto as Appendix I .

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in addition to any rights set forth in the BAA, you acknowledge and agree that Nabla may collect, process, and otherwise use de-identified data that is transmitted to Nabla through your use of the Services for training of Nabla’s internal artificial intelligence model, and Nabla may disclose such de-identified data in connection with the Services.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM COMPANY SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY MADE HEREIN. 

IN NO EVENT WHATSOEVER SHALL THE COMPANY, ITS AFFILIATES, OR SUPPLIERS, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, SHAREHOLDERS, AGENTS, OR REPRESENTATIVES, BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF SALES, PROFIT, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OR DOWNTIME, (ARISING UNDER TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHER LAW) REGARDLESS OF SUCH PARTY’S NEGLIGENCE OR WHETHER SUCH PARTY KNEW OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE DOWNLOAD OF ANY MATERIALS IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES IS DONE AT YOUR DISCRETION AND RISK AND THAT YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE DOWNLOAD OR UPLOAD OF ANY MATERIAL.

Business Associate will not retain any copies of such information.
