A Services Term may be renewed upon mutual agreement of the parties and payment of the applicable renewal Fees. If an Order Form includes a Services Term of indefinite duration, each party may terminate the Order Form for any reason by registered letter with three (3) months' notice. If an Order Form includes a Services Term with a limited duration, you may not cancel the Order Form. In ​"pay as you use" arrangements, we shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement with immediate effect if you have not used the Services for more than three (3) months.
*B. Services Termination and Suspension. * We may temporarily or permanently suspend access to the Services with respect to Customer or an Authorized User, and without liability to you (a ​"Datirium Termination"), immediately in the event of: (a) Customer's failure to pay any Fees or other amounts payable to Datirium when due; (b) your material breach or violation of any provision of the Agreement that is not cured within ten (10) days of Customer's receipt of written notice from Datirium referencing such breach or violation, with the exception of a material breach or violation of Section 5 (Acceptable Use), for which we may terminate immediately; or (c) Customer ceasing to do business in the normal course, becoming or being declared insolvent or bankrupt, being the subject of any proceeding relating to liquidation or insolvency which is not dismissed within ninety (90) calendar days, or making an assignment for the benefit of its creditors. Additionally, we may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days' written notice in the event that (i) Applicable Law so requires (for example, due to a change to the law governing the provision of the Services); (ii) the Services rely on data or services provided by a third party partner and the relationship with such partner (1) has expired or been terminated, or (2) requires us to change the way we provide the data or services through the Services; or (iii) providing the Services could create a substantial economic burden, security risk, or material technical burden, as determined by us in our reasonable good faith judgment. In the event that we permanently suspend your Account during a Services Term pursuant to this subsections (a) through (c) above, you are not entitled to a restoration of your Account or any of your Customer Data. If we have suspended your individual Authorized User Account, you may not register a new Account or access and use the Services through an Account of another user.
*C. Customer Termination. * Customer may terminate the Agreement with respect to all, and not less than all, of the Services without liability (except as set forth in Section 12.E. (Outstanding Payments; No Refunds) below) upon the occurrence of a material breach by us to provide the Services according to the terms of the Agreement, which breach is not cured within thirty (30) business days after our receipt of written notice from Customer describing such breach in detail (a ​"Customer Termination").
*D Effect of Services Termination. * Unless otherwise stated in the Agreement, upon the expiration or termination of the Agreement: (a) all rights and licenses granted by a party to the other party will immediately terminate, unless otherwise specified; (b) Datirium will terminate Customer access to its Customer Data through the Services (subject to Section 12.F. (Availability of Customer Data) below); and (c) each of the parties will be relieved of their further duties and obligations arising under the Agreement. The expiration, cancellation or termination of the Agreement will not otherwise release either party from its obligation to pay any sum that may be then or thereafter owing to the other party nor operate to discharge any liability that had been incurred by either party prior to any such termination. All sections of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including Sections 4.G. (Audit), 6.B. (License to Customer Data) (with respect to De-Identified Data only), and 7 (Privacy) through 13 (General Terms) (inclusive).
E. Outstanding Payments; No Refunds. In the event that the Agreement is terminated by us for any reason constituting Datirium Termination or by Customer for any reason other than Customer Termination, all Fees and any other amounts owing to Datirium under the Agreement shall accelerate and be immediately due and payable, including, without limitation: (a) in the case of any Services subscribed to on a month-to-month basis, Fees through the end of the month in which the Services are terminated; and (b) in the case of any Services subscribed to for other than on a month-to-month basis, Fees through the remainder of the Services Term. Set-up fees, monthly or yearly Services fees and usage fees are non-refundable.
*F. Availability of Customer Data. * As long as Customer has paid all Fees owed to us, and subject to Section 12.B. (Services Termination and Suspension), we will make the Customer Data available to you for download in an agreed-to format upon written request to us within thirty (30) days after expiration of the applicable Services Term. After such 30-day period, we shall have no obligation to maintain or provide any Customer Data and may thereafter, unless legally prohibited, delete all Customer Data in the SciDAP Platform or otherwise in our possession or under our control.
- GENERAL TERMS
*A. Miscellaneous. * This Agreement (including each Order Form) contains the entire understanding between Datirium and you relating to the subject matter herein and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements between us. We reject any additional or different terms proposed by you, including those contained in your purchase order, acceptance or website. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and an Order Form, the terms of the Order Form shall control, but only as to that Order Form. You may not assign or transfer your rights and benefits under this Agreement without our prior written consent, but we may assign or transfer this Agreement without restriction. Except as set forth in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any rights or benefits on any third party. No waiver, amendment, modification or addition to this Agreement shall be valid unless in writing and signed by both you and us. In the event any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, such determination shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision herein. Datirium and Customer are independent contractors, and this Agreement does not create a partnership, joint venture, employment or agency relationship between Datirium and Customer or any Authorized User. This is a non-exclusive arrangement.
B. Governing Law and Jurisdiction; Arbitration. This Agreement and all matters related thereto will be construed and interpreted under and governed by the laws of the State of Ohio (other than its conflicts of laws provisions) and the federal patent, trademark, copyright and other applicable federal laws of the United States of America. Prior to arbitration, the parties shall seek informal resolution of disputes. The process shall be initiated with written notice of one party to the other, describing the dispute with reasonable particularity followed with a written response within ten (10) calendar days of receipt of notice. Each party shall promptly designate an executive with requisite authority to resolve the dispute. The informal procedure shall commence within 10 calendar days of the date of response. If the dispute is not resolved within 10 business days of the date of commencement of the procedure, either party may proceed to arbitration as set forth herein. The parties agree that any claim or dispute between them, and any claim by either party against any agent, employee, successor, or assign of the other, related to this agreement, including any dispute as to the validity or applicability of this arbitration clause, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, except as where those rules are intentionally varied by the parties herein or pursuant to mutual agreement. The parties expressly agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in Cincinnati, OH, in the English language, and under Ohio law. The prevailing party shall be entitled to a reimbursement of all of its reasonable attorney fees and arbitration costs by the other party. The arbitration award shall be final. The parties are entering into this arbitration agreement in connection with a transaction involving interstate commerce. Accordingly, this arbitration agreement, and any proceedings thereunder, shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") 9 USC 1-16. Any award by the arbitrator may be entered as a judgment in any court having jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the commencement of arbitration under this Section 15.3, at any time either party may proceed directly to a court of competent jurisdiction for any available injunctive or other equitable remedy for a breach of the Confidentiality obligations.
C. Publicity. Customer agrees that we may publicly disclose that we are providing Services to Customer and may include Customer's name, logo, trade names, trademarks, service marks, trade dress, logos and other rights in indicia in any promotional materials, including without limitation any press releases issued by us and on our website and printed materials. Except as set forth in this Agreement, neither party may publicly use the other party's name, logo or other trade or service mark.
*D. Force Majeure. * Neither party shall lose any rights hereunder or be liable to the other party for damages or losses on account of failure of performance by the defaulting party if the failure is due by any occurrence or contingency beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, war, strike, fire, Act of God, earthquake, flood, lockout, embargo, governmental acts or orders or restrictions, failure of suppliers, or any other reason where failure to perform is beyond the reasonable control of the nonperforming party; provided that such party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly mitigate any damages or losses.

Datirium may charge Customer or any person seeking compliance with any Investigations for the reasonable costs and expenses associated with our compliance with any Investigations. Datirium reserves the right to comply with any InvestigationS without notice to Customer. Datirium shall not be deemed in breach of the Agreement for our compliance with any Investigations that require the sequestering or disclosure of all or a portion of the Customer Data.
