BY CLICKING A BOX INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE MASTER TERMS AND CONDITIONS (THIS "AGREEMENT") OR BY EXECUTING AN ORDER FORM THAT REFERENCES THIS AGREEMENT OR BY OTHERWISE USING OR ACCESSING THE COMPANY PLATFORM (AS DEFINED BELOW) (THE "ACCEPTANCE"), YOU AGREE YOU HAVE READ AND ARE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH ENTITY TO THIS AGREEMENT, IN WHICH CASE THE TERM "MERCHANT" WILL REFER TO SUCH ENTITY. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SUCH AUTHORITY, OR IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THIS AGREEMENT, YOU MUST NOT ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT AND MAY NOT USE THE COMPANY PLATFORM. This Agreement, by and between Merchant and Recurly, Inc. ("Recurly"), is effective as of the date of Acceptance (the "Effective Date") and governs Merchant’s use of Recurly’s online recurring billing software-as-a-service platform, including any software, documentation or data related thereto (the "Services"). Each of Recurly and Merchant may be referred to herein individually as a "Party" or collectively as "Parties".

1. Recurly Service

  1. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Merchant is hereby granted a nonexclusive right during the Term (as defined below) to use the Services, as well as any Add-On Services (as defined in the Order Form) and Professional Services (together with the Service, the "Ordered Services"), each as set forth on the attached order form and any other order form subsequently executed by the parties (each, an "Order Form").
  2. Recurly will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer the Services.
  3. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Recurly will perform the Professional Services as set forth on (a) the Order Form, or (b) a separate, mutually executed Statement of Work ("SOW"), as applicable.
  4. Recurly may reasonably suspend Merchant’s access to the Services at any time in its reasonable discretion if it possesses a good faith belief that Merchant’s (or any of its users) use of the Service is in violation of Sections 3(b), 3(e), or 5(b) of this Agreement. Merchant acknowledges that the operation of the Service may from time to time encounter technical or other problems and may not necessarily continue uninterrupted or without technical or other errors and Recurly will not be responsible to Merchant or others for any such interruptions, errors or problems or an outright discontinuance of the Service. Recurly has no obligation to continue producing or releasing new versions of the Service.
  5. Recurly is and will continue to be PCI compliant. Recurly keeps a protected copy of the credit card numbers and/or checking account information of Merchant’s customers ("Payment Information"). This Payment Information belongs to Merchant (and Merchant’s customers). By utilizing the Service, Merchant grants Recurly a license to use this Payment Information for the purposes of fulfilling our Service obligations to Merchant and Recurly will otherwise use commercially reasonable efforts to keep such information confidential and secure in accordance with general industry standards.
  6. Recurly agrees to comply with all applicable state and federal laws and regulations (including those relating to privacy and data security), with regards to its use, access and storage of billing data on Merchant’s behalf.

2. Service Implementation and Registration

  1. Merchant agrees to use the Service only through Merchant’s website or software application that Merchant owns and controls (the "Site"), and to implement the Service on the Site in accordance with Recurly’s documentation. Recurly may suspend or rate limit the Service in the event Recurly finds any implementation issues with the Site. Such suspension or limitation will remain in effect until Merchant corrects any issues specified by Recurly and a suspension or rate limitation will not relieve Merchant of Merchant’s payment obligations under the Agreement.
  2. Merchant agrees to provide Recurly with current, complete and accurate registration information as prompted by the Service registration process and to maintain and properly update such information ("Registration Data"). If Merchant is using the Service to conduct credit card transactions through the Recurly Payment Gateway, Merchant will set up and maintain an account that is capable of receiving funds through a merchant bank account ("Merchant Bank Account"). Merchant authorizes Recurly to confirm that the Merchant Bank Account is and remains in good standing with a financial institution as long as Merchant is using the Service. If Merchant is using the Service to conduct ACH transfers, Merchant must set up an account relationship with Recurly’s ACH processor(s).
  3. Merchant further agrees that, in providing Registration Data, Merchant will not knowingly omit or misrepresent any material facts or information and that Merchant will promptly enter corrected or updated Registration Data via the Service, or otherwise advise Recurly promptly in writing of any such changes or updates. Merchant further consents and authorizes Recurly to verify Merchant’s Registration Data as required for Merchant’s use of and access to the Service. Once Merchant subscribes to the Service, Merchant will receive a unique user ID and password in connection with Merchant’s account (collectively referred to herein as "IDs"). Merchant agrees that it will not allow another person to use its IDs to access and use the Service under any circumstances. Merchant is solely and entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of Merchant’s IDs and for any charges, damages, liabilities or losses incurred or suffered as a result of Merchant’s failure to do so. Recurly are not liable for any harm caused by or related to the theft of Merchant’s IDs, Merchant’s disclosure of its IDs or Merchant’s authorization to allow another person to access and use the Service using its IDs. Furthermore, Merchant is solely and entirely responsible for any and all activities that occur under Merchant’s account including any charges incurred relating to the Service. Merchant agrees to immediately notify Recurly of any unauthorized use of its account or any other breach of security known to Merchant. Merchant acknowledges that the complete privacy of its data and messages transmitted while using the Service cannot be guaranteed.
  4. Recurly is not liable for any losses relating to chargebacks, fraudulent charges or other actions by Merchant or Merchant’s customers that are deceptive, fraudulent or otherwise invalid ("Fraudulent Actions"). By using the Service, Merchant hereby releases Recurly from any liability arising from Fraudulent Actions. Merchant will also use best efforts to promptly notify Recurly of any Fraudulent Actions which may affect the Service. Recurly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate Merchant’s account if Merchant engages in, or permits any other user or customer to engage in, Fraudulent Actions.

3. Service Use and Limitations.

  1. Recurly is a subscription management and billing software service, as well as a payment gateway service. Merchant acknowledges and agrees that: (i) Recurly is not a bank or other chartered depository institution and (ii) Recurly will not be holding any monies for Merchant or Merchant’s customers. Accordingly, Merchant agrees that Recurly will not be responsible or liable for any amounts related to any credit-card or payment transaction.
  2. The rights granted herein are subject to the following restrictions (the "License Restrictions"). Merchant will not directly or indirectly:
    • reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, create derivative works of or otherwise create, attempt to create or derive, or permit or assist any third party to create or derive, the source code underlying the Service;
    • attempt to probe, scan or test the vulnerability of the Service, breach the security or authentication measures of the Service without proper authorization or wilfully render any part of the Service unusable;

    • otherwise use the Service outside the scope expressly permitted hereunder and in the applicable Order Form.
  3. In order to provide the Service, Recurly is required to access, use and/or provide Merchant’s and/or Merchant’s customers’ information and data ("Customer Data”), including, but not limited to, Payment Information. Recurly will access and use Customer Data solely as reasonably necessary to provide the Ordered Services (including any Third Party Account Services (as defined below)) to Merchant. Recurly does not own the Customer Data. Merchant, not Recurly, will have sole responsibility for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality and intellectual property ownership of all Customer Data and, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, Recurly will not be responsible or liable for the deletion, correction, destruction, damage or loss of Customer Data not caused by Recurly.

  4. The Service may provide Merchant with access to, be integrated with, or contain links or references to, products, services (including Add-On Services provided by third parties), data, information, sites or other materials which are provided or operated by third parties (collectively, "Third Party Products"). Third Party Products are not under Recurly’s control and Merchant acknowledges that Recurly is not responsible or liable for the content, functions, accuracy, legality, appropriateness or any other aspect of such Third Party Products. Any purchase or use of Third Party Products by Merchant may be subject to separate or additional terms. Merchant will comply with all Third Party Terms and will indemnify and hold Recurly harmless from all damages, costs, settlements, attorneys’ fees and expenses arising from or related to Merchant’s breach of any Third Party Terms. Any provision by Recurly of Third Party Products and any exchange of data between Merchant and any third-party provider of a Third Party Product is solely between Merchant and the applicable third-party provider. Certain Third Party Products (e.g. account updater and risk management services) require the use of Customer Data (including Payment Information) ("Third Party Account Services"). In the event Merchant purchases or uses any Third Party Account Services, Merchant acknowledges and agrees that Recurly may provide Customer Data to the applicable Third Party Account Services provider in order to enable Merchant’s use of such service.
  5. Merchant represents, warrants and agrees that Merchant will only use the Ordered Services in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and that Merchant will not use the Ordered Services to violate, infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property or other proprietary right of any third party (including, without limitation, any rights of privacy or publicity). Without limiting the foregoing, when using or otherwise accessing the Ordered Services, Merchant will at all times comply with Recurly’s then-current Acceptable Use Policy for the Service (the "AUP"), which is hereby incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.
  6. Following any termination or expiration of this Agreement or Merchant’s Recurly account, Recurly will retain a copy of Merchant’s billing data for a period of thirty (30) days. Merchant acknowledges and agrees that (i) Merchant is solely responsible for exporting a copy of Merchant’s billing data prior to any such termination or expiration and (ii) if Merchant requires access to such data following any such termination or expiration, Merchant may be required to pay professional service fees to Recurly to retrieve such data. In addition, Recurly will not be obligated to release any such billing data or to allow the export thereof if Merchant (or Merchant’s third party designee to receive such data, as applicable) do not demonstrate PCI compliance to Recurly’s reasonable satisfaction (including, without limitation, certifying such compliance in writing in a form acceptable to Recurly).

4. Fees and Payment

  • Unless otherwise set forth on the Order Form, Merchant agrees to pay the fees as set forth on the applicable Order Form and all SOWs (the "Fees") within thirty (30) days of the invoice date.
  • Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, all payment obligations are non-cancelable and nonrefundable.
  • Any past-due amounts payable by Merchant hereunder will bear interest at a rate of 1.5% per month (or the maximum amount permitted by applicable law, whichever is less). Without limiting any remedy available to Recurly, if Merchant fails to pay any fees due hereunder, Recurly may suspend Merchant’s access to the Service.
  • All Fees are exclusive of taxes and other fees which may be imposed on Recurly or Merchant for the provision or use of the Service. Merchant will be responsible for such taxes and other fees. Tax exempt status will be granted to Merchant upon presentation of a satisfactory certificate of exemption.
  • Merchant is responsible for its own Merchant Bank Account fees in addition to the Fees set forth hereunder. Recurly may help Merchant apply for a Merchant Bank Account, or Merchant may bring an existing Merchant Bank Account, but any fees associated with such Merchant Bank Account are Merchant’s responsibility and are not included in Recurly’s fees. All fees associated with Merchant’s chosen payment gateway (with the exception of the Recurly Payment Gateway (offered to U.S. customers only)) are also separate and not included in the Fees.

    • 5. Confidentiality

  • "Confidential Information" means any information or data disclosed by either party that is marked or otherwise designated as confidential or proprietary or that should otherwise be reasonably understood to be confidential in light of the nature of the information and the circumstances surrounding disclosure. However, "Confidential Information" will not include any information which (a) is in the public domain through no fault of receiving party; (b) was properly known to receiving party, without restriction, prior to disclosure by the disclosing party; (c) was properly disclosed to receiving party, without restriction, by another person with the legal authority to do so; or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of or reference to the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.
  • Each party agrees that it will use the Confidential Information of the other party solely in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and it will not disclose, or permit to be disclosed, the same directly or indirectly, to any third party without the other party’s prior written consent, except as otherwise permitted hereunder. However, either party may disclose Confidential Information (a) to its employees, officers, directors, attorneys, auditors, financial advisors and other representatives who have a need to know and are legally bound to keep such information confidential by confidentiality obligations consistent with those of this Agreement; and (b) as required by law (in which case the receiving party will provide the disclosing party with prior written notification thereof, will provide the disclosing party with the opportunity to contest such disclosure, and will use its reasonable efforts to minimize such disclosure to the extent permitted by applicable law. Neither party will disclose the terms of this Agreement to any third party, except that either party may confidentially disclose such terms to actual or potential lenders, investors or acquirers. Each party agrees to exercise due care in protecting the Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure. In the event of actual or threatened breach of the provisions of this Section or the License Restrictions, the non-breaching party will be entitled to seek immediate injunctive and other equitable relief, without waiving any other rights or remedies available to it. Each party will promptly notify the other in writing if it becomes aware of any violations of the confidentiality obligations set forth in this Agreement.

Merchant may use any Merchant Content posted by Merchant in any other way without restriction. Merchant may only use Merchant Content posted by others in the ways described in this Agreement.
  • In order to operate the Service, Recurly needs the right to make certain uses of Merchant’s publicly posted Merchant Content (for example, Merchant may provide Recurly with Merchant Content to enable Recurly to send communications on Merchant’s behalf to Merchant’s customers regarding their subscription billing).Therefore, when Merchant posts Merchant Content on the Service, Merchant agrees that Recurly may use and make available such Merchant Content solely as reasonably necessary to provide the Service to Merchant. By posting Merchant Content to the Service, Merchant hereby represents and warrants that Merchant has the right to post that Merchant Content and to grant the foregoing rights to Recurly.
  • In addition, Merchant acknowledges that Recurly may (i) internally use (but not disclose) information and data collected by Recurly regarding Merchant’s use of the Service to create Aggregated Anonymous Data (as defined below) and (ii) may freely use and make available Aggregated Anonymous Data. "Aggregated Anonymous Data" means merchant-level information and data that is in an aggregated, anonymized form and which can in no way be specifically linked to Merchant or to any of Merchant’s customers.
  • Recurly reserves the right to remove any content (including, without limitation, Merchant Content) from the Service, at its sole discretion.

  • Merchant may from time to time provide Recurly suggestions or comments for enhancements or improvements, new features or functionality or other feedback ("Feedback") with respect to the Service. Recurly will have full discretion to determine whether or not to proceed with the development of any requested enhancements, new features or functionality.
