(“ControlHub”). By signing the ControlHub Services Order Form (“Order Form”) or by otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you are using the Services on behalf of a business or organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that business or organization and representing that you have the authority to bind that business or organization to these terms. References to “you”, “your” or “Customer” refers collectively to that business or organization and its users. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Services.

1 License Terms; Proprietary Rights

1.1 Subject to these Terms, ControlHub hereby grants to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use the Services as set forth on the applicable Order Form.

1.2 ControlHub shall own and retain all right, title and interest in and to (a) the Services and Software (as defined below), all improvements, enhancements or modifications thereto, (b) any software, applications, inventions or other technology developed in connection with Services or support, (c) the text, graphics, images, photographs, videos, illustrations, and other content contained in the Services, and (d) all intellectual property rights related to any of the foregoing. You shall own all right, title and interest in and to the Customer Data (as defined in Section 4).Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, ControlHub shall have the right collect and analyze data and other information relating to the provision, use and performance of various aspects of the Services and related systems and technologies (including, without limitation, information concerning Customer Data and data derived therefrom), and ControlHub will be free (during and after the term hereof) to (i) use such information and data to improve and enhance the Services and for other development, diagnostic and corrective purposes in connection with the Services and other ControlHub offerings, and (ii) disclose such data solely in aggregate or other de-identified form in connection with its business.

1.3 You hereby grant to ControlHub the non-exclusive, fully paid, royalty-free, non-transferable right and license to use your name(s) and corporate logo(s) in ControlHub’s marketing materials and on its website, for promotional purposes. No other rights or licenses to your name(s), logo(s) or other goodwill are granted pursuant to this Section 1.4.

2 Services and Support

2.1 Subject to these Terms, ControlHub will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide you the Subscription Services referenced in the Order Form, commencing on the date set forth in the Order Form (or, if no Initial Service Term is defined, then on the date you begin using the Subscription Services) and continuing until such time as you cancel the agreement or is otherwise terminated hereunder.

2.2 The Subscription Services enable you to designate certain users of your business or organization as administrators (“Administrators” or “Admins”) to act as point of contact for you, “Approvers” who you grant to the authority to approve purchase requests made by its other users (“Requesters”).

2.3 Through the Subscription Services, Customer and its users may receive “Purchasing Services”, where ControlHub will make purchases on behalf of Customer related to products or services that the Customer users request, such as products and services from suppliers, contractors, sellers, retailers, wholesalers or service providers (“Providers”). In order to facilitate the Purchasing Service, Customer authorizes ControlHub to submit certain information, including the name and other personal information of the Customer user and the applicable payment information (collectively, the “Shared Information”), to the Providers. As an example and by way of illustration only: to facilitate an Customer user purchase of an airline ticket, ControlHub may provide the Customer user’s name, other identifying information, and payment information to the Provider (the airline).

2.4 ControlHub is not responsible for the provision of the products or services purchased through its Purchasing Services, and does not guarantee the correctness of any material, information or results made available to Customer by or from the Providers, and the presentation of product or services inventory through the Subscription Services does not constitute a binding contract offer by ControlHub or the respective Provider. Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) the Purchasing Services may be subject to the terms and conditions, agreements, and privacy and security policies of the specific Provider selected by the Customer’s user(s), and (ii) the use of Purchasing Services will be subject to Customer’s compliance with applicable law. Customer and its users shall be solely responsible for, and assume all risk arising from, the selection, use and receipt of any Purchasing Service. Customer shall be responsible for the accuracy of all Shared Information it provides to ControlHub.

2.5 ControlHub shall not be liable for the performance or product/service quality of any Provider, any loss or injury to any Customer user resulting from a Purchasing Service, or any unauthorized use, disclosure, or misuse of any Shared Information by a Provider.

2.6 For avoidance of doubt, the Services do not include any products or service provided the Providers, even if ControlHub sent those Providers a Purchase Order, made an online purchase from them or provided any type of service/procurement request or engagement.

2.7 Subject to the terms hereof, ControlHub will provide you with reasonable technical and customer support services for the Services.
