BeamSec End-User Licence Agreement
This end-user licence agreement (this “Agreement”) governs the licence and access of BeamSec software, subscriptions, and services provided by BeamSec LTD, and all affiliated products (“BeamSec”) unless you (or the business, government, or entity you represent) have executed a separate written agreement with BeamSec governing such software, subscriptions, and services. BeamSec is located at Britannia House, 11 Glenthorne Road, London, W6 0LH, United Kingdom.
Downloading, installing, accessing, or using BeamSec software, subscriptions, and/or services constitutes acceptance of this agreement.

If you agree to this agreement on behalf of a business, government, or other entity, you represent and warrant that you have the power and authority to bind such business, government, or other entity to this agreement, and your agreement to these terms will be treated as the agreement of such business, government, or other entity. As used in this agreement, “customer” refers to the business, government, or other entity on whose behalf you have entered into this agreement.
If you are unwilling to agree to this agreement, or you do not have the right, power, and authority to act on behalf of and bind the customer, do not install, download, access, or otherwise use the software, and subscriptions.
If the customer receives the software, subscriptions, or services through a BeamSec authorised reseller, partner, or distributor (collectively, “authorised partner”), all fees and other procurement and delivery terms will be agreed upon between the customer and the authorised partner; however, the terms outlined in this agreement regarding customer’s use of the software, subscriptions, and services remain applicable. For clarification, the customer’s agreement with the authorised partner is between the customer and the authorised partner only and such agreement is not binding on BeamSec.

III. TERM AND TERMINATION.
A. Term.
1. Software Licence and Support. Each Software will be licensed for the period stated on the applicable Order or, if no period for the Software Licence is specified in the Order, for one (1) year from the date the Software was delivered to Customer (“Initial Software License Term”). Unless otherwise stated on the Order, the Software License will automatically renew after its Initial Software License Term for additional periods of one (1) year each (each, a “Renewal Software License Term” and together with the Initial Software License Term, the “Software License Term”), unless either Party notifies the other of its intention not to renew the Software License at least sixty (60) days before the expiration of the then-current Software License Term. If Customer is licensing the Software on a term basis, BeamSec will provide Software Support Services at no additional charge, for the duration of the Software License Term and such Software Support Services will be coterminous with the Software License Term. If Customer is licensing Software on a perpetual basis, Customer’s licence to the Software is contingent on Customer purchasing Software Support Services for the duration of the perpetual licence subject to BeamSec’s End of Life Policy as outlined in the BeamSec Community portal. If BeamSec no longer supports such Software under its End-of-Life Policy, Customers may continue to use the Software without Software Support Services. Except under the foregoing sentence, if Customer ceases to purchase Software Support Services at any time during the term of the perpetual licence, the perpetual licence will terminate.
2. Subscriptions. The term of each Subscription is specified in the applicable Order or, if no period for the applicable Subscription is specified, for one (1) year from the date in which access to the Subscription was made available to Customer (“Initial Subscription Term”). Unless otherwise stated on the Order, the Subscription will automatically renew after its Initial Subscription Term for additional periods of one (1) year each (each, a “Renewal Subscription Term” and together with the Initial Subscription Term, the “Subscription Term”), unless either Party notifies the other of its intention not to renew the Subscription at least sixty (60) days before the expiration of the then-current Subscription Term.
3. Professional Services. The term of performance for Professional Services begins on the date stated in the applicable SOW or Order or as otherwise mutually agreed in writing between the Parties and will remain in effect for the term stated in the applicable SOW or Order. If no term for Professional Services is outlined in the applicable SOW or Order, then (i) concerning an SOW, the Professional Services will start on the effective date of the SOW and will continue until complete unless otherwise terminated as set forth herein, and (ii) concerning an Order, Professional Services will start on a mutually agreed upon date, and continue until complete, unless otherwise terminated as set forth herein.
B. Termination for Material Breach; Suspension. A Party may terminate this Agreement or one or more of the Orders and Statements of Work hereunder, if the other Party commits a material breach, and fails to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days of being notified by the non-breaching Party of such breach (“Cure Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer acknowledges and agrees that BeamSec may, in its sole and absolute discretion, immediately terminate this Agreement, or affected SOW or Order, or suspend Customer’s access to any Services in connection with any actual, alleged, or suspected: (i) breach of confidentiality obligations and licence or use restrictions outlined in this Agreement and applicable exhibit, (ii) direct or indirect technical or security issues or problems caused by or relating to Customer, or (iii) violations of applicable law and, in BeamSec’s determination, such violation cannot be adequately cured within the Cure Period. If BeamSec terminates this Agreement or any Order or Statement of Work due to Customer’s material breach, BeamSec will not refund any amounts to Customer. If the Customer terminates a Software Licence or Service due to a material breach by BeamSec, the Customer is entitled to a refund for the remainder of the current term for the affected Software or Service. However, no refund will be issued if the Customer is also in breach of the Agreement at the time of such termination. In cases where the Customer terminates a Software Licence or Service for reasons other than BeamSec’s material breach, the Customer is not eligible for any refund or credit for Fees already paid or owed to BeamSec. Furthermore, in such circumstances, any outstanding Fees for Software Licences and Services under any applicable Statement of Work or Order will become immediately due and payable.
C. Effect of Termination. Upon termination of an applicable SOW or Order for any reason, all access rights and licences granted herein concerning the affected Order or SOW will immediately terminate. Termination or expiration of any Order or SOW will not be deemed a termination or expiration of any other Orders or SOWs in effect as of the date of termination or expiration, and this Agreement will continue to govern and be effective as to those outstanding Orders and SOWs until those Orders and SOWs have expired or terminated by their terms or as set forth herein. Within ten (10) business days of the termination of an applicable SOW or Order, each Party will return or delete all copies of the other Party’s intellectual property in its possession or control.
Upon termination of this Agreement, Customer agrees to cease all use of our Software, and delete all copies of any BeamSec Ltd products from any devices.
D. Survival. The provisions of Section IV (Fees, Taxes and Expenses), Section V (Confidentiality and Data Privacy), Section VI (Intellectual Property), Section VII (Warranties and Disclaimers), Section IX (Limitation of Liability), Section XI (Miscellaneous), and all accrued payment obligations, will survive the termination of this Agreement and the termination of all Orders and SOWs.
IV. FEES, TAXES AND EXPENSES.
A. Customer will pay the fees for the Software and Services outlined in the applicable Order or Statement of Work (“Fees”). All Fees are non-cancellable and non-refundable. All Fees will be fully invoiced in advance unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. Fees are exclusive of all tariffs, duties, or taxes imposed or levied by any government or governmental agency, including without limitation, local sales, use, value-added, or other similar taxes (collectively, “Taxes”) and Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes applicable to the Software and Services provided by BeamSec to Customer. Customer will reimburse BeamSec for any expenses incurred by BeamSec so long as such expenses are directly attributable to the Software and Services provided to Customer.
B. Customer agrees to pay, in full, any undisputed invoice submitted by BeamSec within thirty (30) days of receipt of such invoice. If Customer fails to make any payment when due, then interest at a rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month will accrue on such unpaid, undisputed amounts, calculated from the date the payment was originally due. If Customer disputes any invoice, it will promptly notify BeamSec of the disputed amount, but in no event later than the date payment is due, with an explanation of the reasons, therefore.
V. CONFIDENTIALITY AND DATA PRIVACY.
A. Recipient will: (i) not use any Confidential Information for any purpose except to evaluate and engage in discussions concerning a potential business relationship between the Parties and/or to fulfil its obligations under this Agreement; (ii) use at least the same degree of care as Recipient uses to protect its own confidential information from unauthorised use, access or disclosure, but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care; (iii) limit disclosure of Confidential Information to those persons within Recipient’s organisation who have a need to know and who have previously agreed in writing, prior to the receipt of Confidential Information, to be bound by confidentiality obligations similar to those set forth in this Agreement; (iv) not disclose any Confidential Information to third parties without Discloser’s prior written consent; (v) not copy, reverse engineer, disassemble, create any works from, or decompile any prototypes, software or other tangible objects which embody Discloser’s Confidential Information; and (vi) comply with, and obtain any necessary permissions under, all relevant export control laws and regulations as stipulated by the United Kingdom. Any reproduction of Confidential Information requires the Discloser’s prior written consent and will remain the property of the Disclosure. Any reproductions will contain any notices of confidentiality contained in the original Confidential Information.
B. The foregoing confidentiality obligations will not apply to information that Recipient can demonstrate: (i) is publicly known and made generally available through no improper action or inaction of Recipient; (ii) was already in the possession of, or known by Recipient before the time of disclosure by Discloser through no fault or breach of this Agreement by Recipient; (iii) was rightfully obtained by, or disclosed to, Recipient from a third party without any obligation to maintain the Confidential Information as proprietary or confidential, or (iv) is independently developed by Recipient without the use of or reference to Discloser’s Confidential Information. Recipient may disclose Confidential Information to the extent such disclosure is required to comply with applicable law or a valid order or requirement of a governmental or regulatory agency or court of competent jurisdiction, provided that Recipient (a) restricts such disclosure to the maximum extent legally permissible; (b) notifies Discloser as soon as practicable of any such requirement to the extent such provision of prior notice is permitted by applicable law; and (c) that subject to such disclosure, such disclosed materials will in all respects remain subject to the restrictions outlined in this Agreement.
C. Within ten (10) business days of the termination of this Agreement or upon Disclosure’s written request, Recipient will promptly, at Recipient’s election, destroy or return all of Discloser’s Confidential Information in Recipient’s possession or the possession of any representative of Recipient; provided, however, that Recipient will not, in connection with the foregoing obligations, be required to delete Confidential Information held electronically in archive or back-up systems, and such Confidential Information will in all respects remain subject to the restrictions outlined in this Agreement. Upon Discloser’s written request, Recipient will provide a certification, signed by an officer of Recipient, as to the destruction or return of Discloser’s Confidential Information.
D. Discloser retains all right, title and interest to its Confidential Information. Recipient acknowledges that the disclosure of Confidential Information may cause irreparable injury to Discloser. Discloser will, therefore, be entitled to seek injunctive relief upon a disclosure or threatened disclosure of any Confidential Information, without a requirement that Discloser prove irreparable harm and without the posting of a bond. This provision will not in any way limit such other remedies as may be available to Discloser at law or in equity. ALL CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION IS PROVIDED “AS IS.” DISCLOSER MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR OTHERWISE, REGARDING ITS ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR PERFORMANCE.
E. If the use of the Software and Subscriptions includes the processing of personal data (as described in applicable data privacy laws) when performing its obligations under this Agreement, the following will apply:
1. Customer will ensure that: (i) Customer is entitled to transfer the relevant personal data to BeamSec so that BeamSec may lawfully use, process, and transfer the personal data on Customer’s behalf and by this Agreement; and (ii) the relevant third parties have been informed of, and have given their consent to, such use, processing, and transfer as required by all applicable data protection laws.
2. BeamSec will: (i) process personal data in compliance with and subject to this Agreement and any lawful and reasonable instructions received from Customer; (ii) not use or process or permit any BeamSec subcontractors to use or process, any personal data except to the extent necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement; (iii) implement and maintain adequate and reasonable technical and organisational safeguards designed to protect against the unauthorised or accidental access, loss, alteration, disclosure or destruction of personal data in BeamSec’s possession or control; (iv) ensure that it has appropriate procedures in place designed to comply with applicable data protection laws and will take all reasonable steps to ensure that persons employed by it, and other persons engaged at its place of work, are aware of and comply with applicable data privacy laws and regulations.
3. BeamSec will not sell, process, retain, disclose, or use (i) for a commercial purpose or (ii) outside of the direct business relationship between BeamSec and Customer, any Customer Data that, under the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) constitutes “personal information” (“Personal Information”), except to provide the Software and Services or as permitted by GDPR. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, Order, or Statement of Work, the Parties acknowledge and agree that BeamSec’s access to Personal Information or any other Customer Data does not constitute part of the consideration exchanged by the Parties in respect of this Agreement.
VI. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY.
A. Intellectual Property of BeamSec; Restrictions. All Intellectual Property Rights in the BeamSec IP belong exclusively to BeamSec or its licensors. Customer acknowledges and agrees that it will not (and will not allow any third party), in whole or in part, to directly or indirectly: (i) disassemble, decompile, reverse compile, reverse engineer or attempt to discover any source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of any BeamSec IP (except to the limited extent that applicable law prohibits reverse engineering restrictions solely for interoperability purposes), (ii) sell, resell, distribute, sublicense or otherwise transfer, the BeamSec IP, or make the functionality of the BeamSec IP available to any other party through any means (unless BeamSec has provided prior written consent), or (iii) reproduce, alter, modify or create derivatives of the BeamSec IP (unless as expressly permitted in this Agreement). Customers will maintain the copyright notice and any other notices that appear on BeamSec IP, including any interfaces related to the Software or Subscriptions.
B. Aggregate Data; Feedback.

Aggregate Data will also include statistical information related to the use and performance of Software and Services, provided that such statistical information is de-identified. Customer grants to BeamSec a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, fully paid-up licence to use and exploit any suggestion, enhancement request, recommendation, correction, or other feedback (“Feedback”) provided by Customer or its Authorised users relating to the Software and Services.

Customer acknowledges that for applicable Software and Services, BeamSec may provide certain BeamSec templates and formats to Customer, and Customer will have a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to use, modify, display, and reproduce such templates and formats for Customer’s internal use with the applicable Software or Service, subject to the restrictions outlined in this Agreement. To the extent that any such modified templates and/or formats do not embody or otherwise include Customer’s Confidential Information and Customer Marks, BeamSec owns and holds all rights, title, and interest in and to such templates and/or formats.
D. Intellectual Property of Customer; Restrictions. BeamSec acknowledges that Customer owns all rights, title, and interest in and to Customer Marks and Customer Data (excluding Aggregate Data). Customer grants to BeamSec the worldwide right to use, access, host, copy, transmit, and display Customer Marks and Customer Data, as reasonably necessary for BeamSec to perform its obligations by this Agreement. BeamSec may disclose Customer Data to its third-party contractors and service providers (including cloud service providers) to the extent necessary to provide the applicable Software and Services under this Agreement; provided that such third-party contractors and service providers are bound by confidentiality obligations similar to the provisions of this Agreement. BeamSec expressly disclaims any Customer Data which Customer has generated for use with an applicable Subscription or Software, and Customer agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and, at BeamSec’s option, to defend BeamSec, its officers, directors, employees, contractors and agents from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) incurred as a result of any alleged or actual violations of any third party rights arising out of the Customer Data.
VII. WARRANTIES AND DISCLAIMERS.
A. Software Warranty. BeamSec represents and warrants that, during the “Software License Term” following delivery of the Software to Customer (“Software Warranty Period”), the Software will perform materially as described in the applicable Documentation. Customer must promptly notify BeamSec of any breach of this warranty, but in any event no later than the expiration of the Software Warranty Period. The warranty outlined in this Section will not apply if the Software (i) has been modified or altered by any party other than BeamSec or BeamSec’s duly authorised representatives; (ii) has not been installed, operated, repaired, or maintained by instructions supplied by BeamSec; or (iii) has been subjected to abnormal stress, misuse, negligence, or accident.

The foregoing states Customer’s sole remedy and BeamSec’s entire liability for breach of warranty in this Section.
B. Professional Services and Software Support Services Warranty. BeamSec warrants to Customer that Professional Services and Software Support Services will be performed professionally by industry standards for like services. Customer must promptly notify BeamSec of any breach of this warranty, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days following the date the Professional Services or Software Support Services were performed. For any breach of BeamSec’s warranty obligations outlined in this Section, BeamSec will promptly correct or re-perform the applicable Professional Services or Software Support Services, at BeamSec’s expense.

C. Subscription Services Warranty. BeamSec warrants to Customer that during the applicable Subscription Term, the Subscription will be performed materially by the applicable Documentation, and in a professional manner with reasonable skill and care. Customer must promptly notify BeamSec of any breach of this warranty, but in any event no later than thirty (30) days following the date this warranty was allegedly breached. The warranty outlined in this Section will not apply if (i) Customer has used the Subscription contrary to BeamSec’s instructions as may be outlined in the applicable exhibit or Documentation, or (ii) the Subscription has been modified or altered by any party other than BeamSec or BeamSec’s duly authorised representatives. For any breach of BeamSec’s warranty obligations set forth in this Section, BeamSec will promptly correct the non-conformity, at BeamSec’s expense. The preceding sentence states Customer’s sole remedy and BeamSec’s entire liability for breach of warranty in this Section.
D. DISCLAIMERS.

If the BeamSec IP, Software or Subscription, or parts thereof, become, or in BeamSec’s opinion may become, the subject of an infringement claim, BeamSec may, at its option: (i) modify or replace such BeamSec IP, Software or Subscription with a non-infringing, functional equivalent; (ii) obtain for Customer all necessary licences and permissions to continue using the BeamSec IP, Software or Subscription; or (iii) require that Customer cease to use the BeamSec IP, Software or Subscription and (a) with respect to Subscriptions and term Software Licences, refund any pre-paid Fees for the unused remainder of the Software License Term or Subscription Term; (b) with respect to perpetual Software Licences, refund the Fees paid for the Software License, less allowance for amortisation over a three (3) year period, straight-line method and refund any pre-paid Fees for the unused remainder of the Software Support Term; and (c) with respect to Professional Services, refund any pre-paid Fees for Professional Services that have not been delivered.

C. Customer agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold BeamSec, its employees, and agents harmless from any claims and/or demands, including reasonable legal ’ fees, made by any third party arising out of or related to Customer’s alleged or actual use or misuse of the BeamSec IP, Software and Subscriptions, including without limitation: (a) claims related to the unauthorised disclosure or exposure of personal data or other private information by Customer; (b) claims that the Customer Data infringes a third party right; (c) claims that use of a Subscription by Customer, including by Customer’s Authorised Users, harasses, defames, or defrauds a third party; or (d) claims arising from Customer’s use of the Software and Services in violation of this Agreement.
D.
