The following terms and conditions govern all use of the website located at https://www.pendo.io/ (the Website), including all of the materials, documents, text, images, graphics, animation, videos and other information and content included in or available at the Website (Content). The Website, Content and any services provided at the Website are collectively referred to as the Service. The Service is owned and operated by Pendo.io, Inc. (Pendo).

The Service is offered and provided subject to acceptance of all of the terms and conditions contained herein (Terms of Use). The Terms of Use shall be deemed to include all other operating rules, conditions, policies and procedures that are referred to herein or that may otherwise be published at the Website by Pendo from time to time (collectively, Policies), including without limitation, the Privacy Policy.

The Service is available only to individuals who are at least 18 years old, who are acting for themselves or in their capacity as an employee or representative of a business entity or other organization (in which case you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to the Terms of Use on behalf of yourself and such entity or organization). Pendo may refuse to offer the Service to any person or entity and may change its eligibility criteria, at any time, in its sole discretion.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS OF USE, OR IF YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE OR AUTHORIZED TO DO SO, THEN DO NOT REGISTER FOR, ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE. COMPLETING ANY REGISTRATION PROCESS OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING ANY PART OF THE SERVICE WILL CONSTITUTE ACCEPTANCE OF, AND CREATE A LEGALLY ENFORCEABLE CONTRACT UNDER WHICH YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY, ALL OF THE TERMS OF USE, WITHOUT MODIFICATION.

Not Commercial Data Services.

For clarity, the Content and Service provided at the Website do not include access to or use of Pendo’s commercial data services, which are only made available pursuant to a separate written agreement executed by the customer and Pendo (a Commercial Contract). In the event of any conflict between these Terms of Use and a Commercial Contract, the terms and conditions of the Commercial Contract shall control.

Changes.

Pendo reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify or replace any of the Terms of Use (including any Policy) at any time. It is your responsibility to check the Terms of Use periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Service following the posting of any changes to the Terms of Use constitutes acceptance of those changes. The Terms of Use (as it applies to you) may not otherwise be amended except by written instrument executed by you and Pendo.

Registration.

From time to time, at its sole discretion, Pendo may make all or any part of the Service available only to registered users (such as, for example, to apply for, subscribe or gain access to various information services or employment opportunities). You may elect to register or not, at your discretion. The registration process may require you to provide your name, company name, address, telephone number, email address and certain additional personal data or other information (such as, for example, your preferred contact method and businesses that are of interest to you).

No Warranties.

THE WEBSITE, CONTENT AND OTHER ASPECTS OF THE SERVICE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND ANY WARRANTIES IMPLIED BY ANY COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE, ALL OF WHICH ARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMED.

THESE LIMITATIONS ARE INDEPENDENT FROM ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY REMEDY PROVIDED HEREIN.

SOME STATES AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Indemnification.

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Pendo, its limited partners and portfolio companies, and its and their affiliates, officers, directors, employees and representatives, from all liabilities, claims, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that arise from your use or misuse of the Service. Pendo reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will assist and cooperate with Pendo in asserting any available defenses.

International Use.

You expressly consent to the transmission, collection, storage, processing and use of your data from, to and within the United States, in addition to the country where you are located (if not the United States). Pendo makes no representation that the Service is accessible, appropriate or legally available for use in locations outside the United States, and accessing and using the Service (including with regard to the provision, collection or processing of data) is prohibited from territories where doing so would be illegal. If you access or use the Service from other locations, then you do so at your own initiative and risk and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws.

Dispute Resolution.

A printed version of the Terms of Use and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to the Service or Terms of Use (including any Policy) to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You and Pendo agree that any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the Service must be commenced within 1 year after the claim or cause of action arose. Otherwise, such claim or cause of action is permanently barred.

The Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Delaware, USA, excluding its conflicts of law rules. In the event of any conflict between US and foreign laws, regulations and rules, US laws, regulations and rules shall govern.

Except that either party may seek an injunction or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction, all disputes between the parties arising out of or in relation to or in connection with the Service or Terms of Use shall be settled by binding arbitration in accordance with the JAMS commercial arbitration rules and procedures then in force, by one neutral arbitrator appointed in accordance with the rules. The arbitration shall take place in Dover, Delaware, USA. The proceedings shall be in English, all evidence shall be in English (or translated into English) and the governing law shall be as set forth herein. The arbitrator’s decision shall be in writing and shall comply with all terms and conditions in the applicable version of the Terms of Use. The decision and award rendered shall be final and binding on both parties. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Terms of Use and any award rendered pursuant hereto shall be governed by the UN Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THE TERMS OF USE WILL TAKE PLACE ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT BY ENTERING INTO THE TERMS OF USE OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU AND PENDO ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Use of the Service is not authorized in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of the Terms of Use, including without limitation, this section.

Integration and Severability.

The Terms of Use are the entire agreement, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written or electronic), between you and Pendo with respect to the Service; provided, nothing in the Terms of Use is intended to amend or supersede any rights or obligations of Pendo pursuant to any fiduciary obligation. If any provision of the Terms of Use is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the Terms of Use will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.

Miscellaneous.

The Terms of Use and access to the Service contemplated hereunder are personal to you, and are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with Pendo’s prior written consent. Pendo may assign, transfer or delegate any of its rights or obligations hereunder without your consent. All waivers and modifications must be in a writing signed by both parties, except as otherwise provided herein. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created hereunder and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect. The failure of either you or Pendo to exercise, in any way, any right herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. All notices hereunder will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by facsimile or email; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service.
