MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT

This Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) sets forth the terms under which J2 Martech Corp. DBA EmailMother(“EmailMother,” “we,” or “us”) provides you (“Customer,” “you,” or “your”) with email verification and/or deliverability suite services. Each of you and EmailMother may be referred to individually as a “Party” and together the “Parties.”

In order to receive the Services, you must execute a valid SOW or click on the “Agree” button during sign-up. By clicking the “Agree” button and/or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read the Agreement, understand it, and agree to be bound by it. If you do not execute a valid SOW or click on the “Agree” button, EmailMother will have not entered into any legal agreement with you and shall not provide or deliver the Services to you.

In consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, EmailMother and Customer agree as follows:

  1. SCOPE OF SERVICES. EmailMother agrees to provide email verification and/or deliverability suite services (each and together, the “Services”) to Customer as provided herein, and as more fully set forth in separate Statements of Work (“SOW(s)”) or online order form. Each completed SOW will identify the specific Services to be performed, the beginning date of performance, the compensation to be paid for performance of the specified Services and any further details, as necessary. On reaching agreement on each SOW to be performed as part of the Services, the SOW shall be completed and signed by the Parties, and shall thereupon be deemed to be fully incorporated herein by reference.

  2. CHANGES IN SCOPE OF SERVICES. Should Customer request EmailMother to perform any additional Services not covered under any SOW then these additional Services and costs will be paid at a rate agreed upon in advance by the Parties.

  3. TERM. This Agreement shall become effective upon the Effective Date and shall remain in full force and effect for the duration of Customer’s use of the Services. Upon termination of any applicable SOW or sixty (60) days after the expiration of all Customer’s verification credits, if applicable, this Agreement shall also terminate. EmailMother may terminate this Agreement if, in its reasonable determination, EmailMother determines that Customer has violated Section 12. Email verification credits automatically expire one (1) year from the date of purchase.

  4. PAYMENT.

    1. Verification Services Invoicing and Payment. Upon full execution of each SOW, EmailMother will invoice Customer for the fees described in such SOW. If Customer is submitting an online order form, fees are due upon checkout. All fees must be paid in full before email verification credits are applied to Customer’s account.
    2. Deliverability Suite Invoicing and Payment. Upon full execution of each SOW, EmailMother will invoice Customer for the full fees described in such SOW. Each invoice must be paid before Customer gains access to the deliverability suite Services.
    3. Self-Serve Customers. Customers who sign up for EmailMother  services via EmailMother  online portal shall pay all fees upon check-out as presented in the online portal. Customer must agree to the payment terms presented at the time Customer signs up for or purchases any additional Services. Customer must ensure that the credit card information used for Customer’s account is current and accurate, and that Customer is authorized to use that credit card. We may implement fraud-protection measures anytime including, without limitation, temporarily charging small amounts to validate Customer’s credit card and authorization.
    4. Payment Terms. Customer shall pay each invoice within thirty (30) days of receipt unless otherwise stated in an SOW. Customer shall be liable for collection costs, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorney’s fees for any invoices that are not paid in accordance with this Section 4. EmailMother Services are billed in advance and are non-refundable. There will be no refunds or credits for partial service or refunds made should Customer not use the full volume of EmailMother Services ordered. The foregoing shall apply without exception.
  5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Customer agrees that no title to the intellectual property in the Services is transferred to Customer. Title, ownership rights and intellectual property rights in and to the Services shall remain with EmailMother  and/or EmailMother licensors. The Services are protected by intellectual property laws of the United States and other countries and by international treaties.

  6. CONFIDENTIALITY. In the course of performing this Agreement, the Parties may have access to certain proprietary information and trade secrets of each other (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). The Parties agree that the terms of this Agreement are part of the Confidential Information. Neither Party may, either during or after the Term of this Agreement, use, disclose or otherwise permit any person or entity access to any of the Confidential Information of the other Party, except as required or anticipated in the performance of their obligations hereunder or to comply with applicable law. The Parties each understand that they are not allowed to sell, license or otherwise exploit any products or Services that embody in whole or in part any Confidential Information of the other Party, except as set forth hereunder.

  7. REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTY OF CUSTOMER. Customer represents and warrants to EmailMother that any personal details such as email addresses, first and last names, phone numbers, or any information that alone or when combined with other information could identify an individual (“Personal Data”) furnished to EmailMother is owned or properly obtained by Customer, and none of such Personal Data infringes upon the privacy or proprietary rights of any third party.

  8. MUTUAL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. Each Party hereby represents and warrants to the other Party, with the intention that the other rely thereon in entering into this Agreement, that:

If EmailMother does not accomplish (iv) or (v) above within a reasonable time period after receipt of Customer’s notice of the noncompliance, then EmailMother  will refund to Customer the fees Customer pre-paid to EmailMother for any Service Customer was unable to use as a result of EmailMother not being able to provide the remedy in (iv) or (v).
    2. Indemnification by Customer. Customer shall defend EmailMother against any Claim made or brought against EmailMother by a third party alleging that Customer’s data, or Customer’s use of the Services in violation of this Agreement, infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of a third party or violates applicable law, and shall indemnify EmailMother for any damages finally awarded against, and for reasonable attorney’s fees incurred by, EmailMother in connection with any such Claim; provided, that EmailMother: (a) promptly gives Customer written notice of the Claim; (b) gives Customer sole control of the defense and settlement of the Claim (provided that Customer may not settle any Claim unless the settlement unconditionally release EmailMother of all liability); and (c) provides to Customer all reasonable assistance, at Customer’s expense.

  11. LIMITATION OF DAMAGES. NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR ONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES INCURRED OR SUFFERED BY THE OTHER ARISING AS A RESULT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF THE OTHER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES.
