If no prior notice was given, we will send you a written notice as soon as practicable and will conduct an inquiry to reasonably determine if the suspension of Services should be maintained.

4. SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT

Subject to the other provisions of these Terms, during the Term, we undertake to provide an Availability of 99.5% (the “Service Level”). The Service Level shall only apply to the components of the Services that are within our immediate control, including but not limited to the Platform. For the sake of clarity, the Service Level shall encompass BEEM’s management services in relation to the Third-Party Cloud Account, but do not encompass the Availability of the Third-Party Cloud Account itself. 

The Service Level does not apply in the following circumstances: (i) Customer’s fault, acts or omissions, a breach of these Terms (including an Abuse); (ii) events that are not within the reasonable control of BEEM, such as a case of a Force Majeure Event; (iii) Customer’s third-party service providers (including Internet service providers’ downtime), including but not limited to third-party service providers set up by BEEM but where control is transferred to the Customer, such as where control of the Third-Party Cloud Account has been transferred to the Customer in accordance with these Terms; (iv) Customer’s IT infrastructure and internal configurations (together, the “Exempted Downtime”). We reserve our right to suspend the Services if you or an End Users breach these Terms. We may, at our sole discretion and at any time, suspend the provision of the Services if necessary to comply with any applicable Law. Any such suspension shall be considered Exempted Downtime.

The Service Level excludes downtime that is caused by maintenance (“Scheduled Downtime”). We reserve up to eight (8) hours per month for Scheduled Downtime. Before proceeding with a Scheduled Downtime, BEEM will advise Customer at least forty-eight (48) hours in advance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, BEEM may not be able to provide advance notices in the case of emergency maintenance. Such emergency maintenance shall be included in the definition of Scheduled Downtime.

Only repetitive and significant breaches of the Service Level will be considered ground for a termination with cause pursuant to these Terms.

5. SUPPORT

We provide technical support through a live chat available on our public website, and within the Services. You can also e-mail us at team@beemdata.com. Support requests that require follow-ups and maintenance work are classified per priority depending on their impact on the Services. We do not provide technical support for past versions of the Services. We respond to support requests made during office hours (9AM to 5PM ET), excluding statutory holidays in force in Quebec, Canada.

6. FEES AND RELATED CLAUSES

(a) Fees; Payments; Reimbursements and Invoices

You agree to pay us the fees as described in the Quotation as consideration for our provision of the Services, the whole in accordance with this Section 6, and the additional payment terms set forth in the Quotation (the “Fees”). Any unpaid portion of the Fees past the due date are subject to interests of 1,5% monthly (approximately 19.56% annually). Customer shall be liable for all reasonable costs (including attorney’s fees) that BEEM may incur to recover unpaid Fees. The foregoing shall not apply if a portion of the Fees is disputed in good faith.

The first invoice describing the Fees shall be sent upon acceptance of the Quotation. Customer agrees to pay the Fees upon receipt of any invoice. When payment is made by credit card or through direct debit in your bank account (if available), payment will be processed automatically by BEEM based on the recurring schedule for payments and as further specified in the Quotation. If payment through direct debit in your bank account or through credit card is selected and authorized as a method of payment for the Fees, you hereby authorize us to debit the Fees from your bank account or credit card, as the case may be. Payment processing for credit cards is handled through a third-party processor, GoCardless. BEEM and / or its Representatives shall in no way be held responsible for any losses or damages, direct or indirect, pecuniary or otherwise, resulting from any error or failure on the part of the GoCardless.

You represent and warrant that you provided us with accurate and truthful financial information as required for us to debit the Fees in your bank account or on your credit card. Your further represent and warrant that you will inform us without undue delays of any changes to the financial information that you provided us with. You shall be responsible for any fees resulting from your failure to inform us of such changes, or for the fees engendered by BEEM if your payment is declined. 

BEEM shall have no obligation to make specific payment methods available, and some payment methods may not be available to you. We may change our billing options at any time by advising you through the Notification Email Address at least thirty (30) days in advance.

Fees for the Services are non-reimbursable, and we have no obligations to refund any Fees already paid by you to us for any reasons whatsoever. In the event a Quotation or these Terms are terminated, you may have certain obligations to continue to pay Fees, notwithstanding such termination, as further set forth in Section 18 below.

(b) Taxes

If BEEM is required by Law or by administration thereof to collect any applicable taxes from Customer, Customer shall pay such taxes to BEEM concurrent with and in addition to the payment of the Fees (and any other financial considerations payable pursuant to these Terms ), unless Customer qualifies for an exemption from any such applicable taxes, in which case, Customer shall, in lieu of payment of such applicable taxes to BEEM, deliver to BEEM such certificates, elections or other documented required by Laws or the administration thereof to substantiate and effect the exemption claimed by Customer. Where BEEM is not required by Law or the administration thereof to collect applicable taxes, Customer shall pay such taxes directly to the appropriate taxing authority and shall provide evidence of such payment to BEEM upon request.

Customer shall make all payments under these Terms without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any taxes (“Tax Deduction”) unless a Tax Deduction is required by Law. If a Tax Deduction is required by Law then (i) where such Tax Deduction relate to any tax other than an income tax imposed on BEEM’s net income, the relevant amount payable by Customer hereunder shall be increased to the amount that would, following any required Tax Deduction, result in BEEM receiving the amount that would have been received if no Tax Deduction were required; (ii) Customer shall, promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction), notify BEEM accordingly and (iii) Customer shall timely remit the amount of such Tax Deduction to the appropriate taxing authorities. Customer will use commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate, reduce, or eliminate any Tax Deduction (including, but not limited to, by taking advantage of any reduced rate of tax provided for by any applicable international agreement for the avoidance of double taxation then in force).

18. TERM; RENEWALS; TERMINATION

With respect to any Quotation, the subscription term may be on a fixed-term basis or on a rolling monthly basis, as further indicated in the applicable Quotation (the “Subscription Term”). The Subscription Term (whether on a fixed-term basis or on a rolling monthly basis) shall automatically renew for successive periods equal to the initial Subscription Term unless a written notice of non-renewal (including by email) is delivered by one party to the other party at least 30 days prior to the expiry of the initial Subscription Term or applicable renewed Subscription Term. 

Either party may terminate a Quotation by providing the other party with at least 30 days prior written notice of termination (a termination for “Convenience”), provided that in the event that the Customer is the party who terminates a Quotation for Convenience, the Customer shall continue to be responsible for, and shall pay to BEEM the Fees and other amounts owing hereunder for the applicable Subscription Term, notwithstanding the termination of the Quotation. Customer may, at its option, elect to pay such Fees and other amounts owing hereunder in one lump sum, or continue to pay such Fees and other amounts owing hereunder on a monthly basis, until paid in full. By way of example, if a Quotation with a fixed 12 month Subscription Term is terminated by Customer for Convenience after 9 months, Customer shall continue to be liable for and shall pay to BEEM the Fees owing for the remaining 3 months of the Subscription Term. Alternatively, if a Quotation with a rolling monthly term is terminated by Customer for Convenience on day 15 of a monthly Subscription Term, Customer shall continue to be liable for and shall pay to BEEM the Fees owing for the following monthly Subscription Term.

The term of these Terms begins upon the approval of these Terms by Customer and continues until the expiry of all Subscription Terms for all applicable Quotations, including any renewals of any such Subscription Term, unless earlier terminated in accordance herewith (the “Term”). 

Either party may terminate these Terms for cause upon a ten (10) days’ prior written notice of a material breach of the Terms to the other party, if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period. If these Terms are terminated for cause by Customer, you agree to pay to BEEM the Fees due and payable in respect of the Services performed up to the date of termination. If these Terms are terminated for cause by BEEM, you agree to immediately pay BEEM all Fees due until the end of the Subscription Term for each Quotation, including as a result of any renewal of a Subscription Term. 

Any termination notice under the previous paragraphs may be made by email. Termination notices by email shall be sent to team@beemdata.com in the case of BEEM and the Notification Email Address in the case of the Customer.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, these Terms shall terminate immediately upon notice by BEEM if Customer becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors. 

Customer hereby irrevocably and expressly renounces to articles 2125 and 2129 of the Civil Code of Quebec, and acknowledges that its sole rights with respect to termination of these Terms or any Quotation, are those set forth in this Section 18.

All applicable Quotations will terminate concurrently with the termination of these Terms, provided that in the event of the termination of these Terms or expiry of the Term, the provisions of Section 6 and this Section 18 which pertain to payment obligations, as well as Sections 7, 8, 10(b), 12, 13, 14, 15 and 19 will survive the Term or the termination of these Terms or any Subscription Term, for any reason, along with any related definitions.

19. GOVERNING LAW; DISPUTE RESOLUTION

The validity, construction and performance of these Terms and the legal relationship between you and us shall be governed by and constructed in accordance with the Laws of Quebec, Canada, and the federal Laws applicable therein, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether in Quebec or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of Quebec, Canada. Specifically excluded from application to the Terms is the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods.

Any legal suit, action or proceeding, arising out of the Terms or any transactions hereunder shall be instituted exclusively in the courts in the Judicial District of Montreal, in Quebec, Canada, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding.

20. GENERAL PROVISIONS

The waiver of a breach of any provision of these Terms will not operate or be interpreted as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. If any provision of these Terms is in violation of any Law, or is illegal for any reason, said provision shall be self-deleting without affecting the validity of the remaining provisions. These Terms describe the entire understanding of the parties and supersedes all oral and written agreements or understandings between them related to its subject matter, except where other documents have been incorporated by reference herein, including but not limited to any Quotation signed between you and us, and the Acceptable Use Policy.

The parties have required that these Terms and all documents relating thereto be drawn up in English. Les parties ont exigé que cette convention ainsi que tous les documents qui s’y attachent soient rédigés en langue anglaise.

We may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, at any time in the context of a bona fide corporate reorganization, a sale of our assets, a merger and acquisition or bankruptcy filings. You may not assign these Terms, or part of it, to any other person without our prior written approval, which shall not be withheld unreasonably. Any attempt by you to assign these Terms without our consent is void. You may not transfer to anyone else, either temporarily or permanently, any rights to use the Services or any part of the Services.
