Any legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement will be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts located in the Northern District of California and the parties hereby irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue therein.\n\n### 8.3 Severability.\n\nIf any provision of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will be construed so as to be enforceable to the maximum extent permissible by law, and the remaining provisions of the Agreement will remain in full force and effect.\n\n### 8.4 Waiver.\n\nThe waiver of any breach or default will not constitute a waiver of any other right hereunder or of any subsequent breach or default.\n\n### 8.5 Notices.\n\nAll notices required or permitted under this Agreement will be in writing and delivered in person, by confirmed facsimile transmission, by email to a contact email provided by a party, by overnight delivery service, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid with return receipt requested, and in each instance will be deemed given upon receipt.

These Terms may be modified by Company from time to time, and for paid subscriptions, Company shall provide advance written notice to Licensee either via a posting on Company’s website or through Licensee’s account. For paid subscriptions, the new terms shall come into force only upon the beginning of a renewal term, and for free subscriptions, the new terms shall be enforceable immediately. Should a free subscription Licensee not agree with the amended terms, it should immediately cease usage of the Service, and should a paid subscription Licensee not agree with the amended terms, it has the right to terminate the Agreement at the end of its then current term (i.e. before a renewal term commences), in accordance with the termination provisions set forth above.

(“Hightail”), a Delaware corporation, that govern all access to and use of Hightail services (the “Service(s)”). Where the context allows, the term “Subscriber” also includes “Authorized Users,” as defined under Section 1 below.\n\nThe Agreement may be accepted by (1) Subscriber and Hightail fully executing an order form that incorporates these Terms; (2) Subscriber and Hightail agreeing to these Terms in a written format other than an order form; or (3) Subscriber accessing or using any part of the Services.\n\nThe Hightail Privacy Policy is incorporated herein by reference and includes information on how Hightail deals with personal information it collects in connection with the Services.\n\n### 1\\.

The administrator will identify an Authorized User via a name and an email address. In creating its account, Subscriber agrees to provide accurate, current, and complete information. Subscriber is responsible for safeguarding the passwords that Authorized Users use to access the Services. Subscriber agrees not to disclose any such passwords to any third party. Subscriber agrees to take sole responsibility for any activities or actions under such passwords, whether or not Subscriber has authorized such activities or actions.

The indemnifying party shall not enter in to any settlement that imposes liability or obligations on the indemnified party without obtaining the indemnified party’s prior written consent. Hightail’s indemnification obligation will not apply, however, to the extent a claim is based upon the use of the Services in combination with other products, services, processes, or other items not provided by Hightail. If the Services or Hightail applications become, or in Hightail’s opinion are likely to become the subject of an infringement claim, Hightail may at its option obtain for Subscriber the right to continue using the Services or applications, or modify the Services or applications in order to avoid the claim.\n\nBack to Top\n\n### 9\\.
