If you do not agree to these Terms, you are not allowed to use the Site or the Services. The “Effective Date” of these Terms is the date you first use the Site, or access any of the Services.

If you are using the Site or accessing the Services in your capacity as an employee, consultant or agent of a company or other entity, you represent that you are an employee, consultant or agent of that company or entity, and that you have the authority to bind that company or entity to these Terms. For the purpose of these Terms, you (and, if applicable, the company or entity that you represent) will be referred to as “Customer” or “you”.

VToura reserves the right to change or modify these Terms, or any of our other policies or guidelines, at any time without notice to you.

Term, Termination and Effect of Termination

These Terms will apply to you starting on the Effective Date, and will continue for as long as you are accessing or using the Site or the Services.

VToura, in its sole discretion, has the right to suspend your ability to use and/or access the Site or the Services, without liability, under the following circumstances: (i) for scheduled or emergency maintenance to the Site or the Services, or any part thereof; (ii) if VToura believes that you are using the Site or the Services in violation of these Terms or applicable law; (iii) if VToura believes that your use of the Site or the Services poses a security risk to us or to any third party; (iv) if required by law enforcement or government agency, or otherwise in order to comply with applicable law or regulation; or (v) if you fail to fulfill your payment obligations hereunder.

Either of us can terminate these Terms upon notice to the other if the other party breaches any of these Terms and fails to cure the breach within fifteen (15) days of receiving written notice of it from the non-breaching party. We reserve the right to terminate these Terms for cause immediately upon notice to you, and without giving you a cure period, if you breach any of these Terms relating to our intellectual property (including your compliance with the access grant and any restrictions) or our Confidential Information (defined below).

When these Terms terminate or expire: (i) you will no longer have the right to use or access the Site or the Services as of the date of termination/expiration; (ii) if you owed us any fees prior to such termination/expiration, you will pay those fees immediately; and (iii) each of us will promptly return to the other (or, if the other party requests it, destroy) all Confidential Information belonging to the other.

Confidential Information

For the purposes of these Terms, “Confidential Information” means any technical or business information disclosed by one party to the other that: (i) if disclosed in writing, is marked “confidential” or “proprietary” at the time of disclosure; or (ii) if disclosed orally, is identified as confidential or proprietary at the time of such disclosure, and is summarized in a writing sent by the disclosing Party to the receiving Party within thirty (30) days of the disclosure. For the purposes of these Terms you agree that the Feedback, any Reports we provide to you, and any nonpublic elements of the Site or the Services (including, without limitation, the source code of any VToura-proprietary software), will be deemed to be VToura’s Confidential Information, regardless of whether it is marked as such.

Neither of us will use the other party’s Confidential Information, except as permitted by these Terms. Each of us agrees to maintain in confidence and protect the other party’s Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care as it uses for its own information of a similar nature, but in all events at least a reasonable degree of care. Each of us agrees to take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized disclosure of the other party’s Confidential Information, including, without limitation, disclosing Confidential Information only to its employees, independent contractors, consultants, and legal and financial advisors (collectively, “Representatives”): (i) with a need to know such information, (ii) who are parties to appropriate agreements sufficient to comply with this Section, and (iii) who are informed of the nondisclosure obligations imposed by this Section. Each party will be responsible for all acts and omissions of its Representatives. The foregoing obligations will not restrict either party from disclosing Confidential Information of the other party pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body, provided that the party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the other party to enable them to contest such order or requirement.

The restrictions set forth in this Section will not apply with respect to any Confidential Information that: (i) was or becomes publicly known through no fault of the receiving party; (ii) was rightfully known or becomes rightfully known to the receiving party without confidential or proprietary restriction from a source other than the disclosing party who has a right to disclose it; (iii) is approved by the disclosing party for disclosure without restriction in a written document which is signed by a duly authorized officer of such disclosing party; or (iv) the receiving party independently develops without access to or use of the other party’s Confidential Information.

You agree that any notice that VToura is required to provide pursuant to these Terms can be given electronically, which may include an email to the email address you provide to VToura as part of your Registration Data.

Business Customers

Business customers are subject to all provisions in these Terms, as well as special provisions defined below.

Cancellation and Transfer of Services:

If you purchased a Business membership and are on a year-to-year payment plan, you may cancel your account by providing written notice to your account manager. The date this written notice is sent is the “notice date.” Your subscription will be terminated as of the notice date and you will not be billed in a subsequent year. If a payment was received after the notice date, it will be refunded to you. No refunds will otherwise be issued (you will not receive a refund for unused Services in the year that the notice was received and subscription canceled).

If you contracted us to provide a custom solution (defined as custom software, business processes, business rules, feature development, or custom architecture), and we have already engaged in the development of that solution (regardless of completeness), any refund of fees will be reduced by the cost of our effort to implement the custom solution. In the event that the cost to develop a custom solution exceeds the total sum of payments received by the customer before cancellation, you will be charged for any remainder of the actual cost of developing the custom solution up incurred until the notice date.

General Provisions:

If you are a business customer and have contracted us for a custom solution (defined as custom software, business processes, business rules, feature development, or custom architecture), you accept that there is inherent risk in the development of such a solution. You agree to properly define your custom solution needs and to make available subject matter experts who can respond to questions in a timely manner. We will make a good faith effort to confirm the solution definition and deliver the solution to you in the agreed timeline. In the event of a dispute or delay in delivery, you agree to be bound by the provisions in these Terms, such as, but not limited to, the terms specified in LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
