During the Term, and including upon YAKKL's reasonable request, you may provide YAKKL with comments, input and feedback regarding the features, functionality and performance of the Product or Services (“Feedback”). You hereby assign and agree to assign to YAKKL all right, title and interest in and to any Feedback, and any improvements and modifications to the Product or Services or YAKKL's other products or services conceived or made as a result of such Feedback, including all intellectual property and other proprietary rights in the foregoing.
d. You will comply and/or cause your users to comply with the applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement in connection with any access to or use of the Product and Services, and any other applicable specifications, documentation or usage limitations made available by YAKKL from time to time. You are responsible for acquiring and maintaining all software, hardware and services necessary to access or use the Product and Services.
e. YAKKL may, in its sole discretion, set "rate limits" change quotas and other limits on Product or Services usage, which may include the number of calls that you may make during a particular period, the minimum required time between any such calls, or the maximum file size that may be transmitted to, from or through the Product, or require pre-payments in connection with any of the foregoing. You will not (and will not permit or enable any third party to) exceed or circumvent any such quotas or limits, including by aggregating accounts or obtaining multiple Keys.
f. If developing a Customer Application, you shall require each end user of a Customer Application (“End User”), as a condition of accessing or using any Product or Service, to affirmatively accept a terms of service or end user license agreement with you (the “EULA”) consistent with this Agreement, including the required terms set forth in Attachment 1 (Required End User Terms), as updated by YAKKL from time to time.
a. The fees for the Product and Services (“Fees”) are as set forth at yakkl.com or as otherwise communicated to you by YAKKL, and are subject to change by YAKKL from time to time. You agree to pay to YAKKL the then-current Fees for your usage of the Product and Services. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, all Fees are non-refundable.
You may have the option to purchase prepaid credits (“Credits”) that may be redeemed to satisfy certain Fees that you may incur. The price for Credits, and details regarding the redemption of Credits to satisfy Fees, are as set forth at yakkl.com or as otherwise communicated by YAKKL, and are subject to change by YAKKL from time to time. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, all Credits are non-transferable and non-refundable, and shall expire one (1) year from the date of purchase. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, all Credits are non-transferable, non-refundable and have no cash value, and shall expire upon the earlier of (a) any expiration or termination of this Agreement, or (b) one (1) year from the date of purchase of the applicable Credits.
b. YAKKL may, in its sole discretion, provide you with a limited free trial for the Product and/or certain Services. Any such free trial will be subject to usage limits and other restrictions as specified by YAKKL during your registration process, or as otherwise communicated by YAKKL from time to time. You acknowledge and agree that your access to and use of the Product or applicable Services may be suspended or terminated without notice if your free trial expires, or you exceed any such limits or restrictions.
c. Except during a valid free trial as described above, you must maintain a valid payment mechanism on file with YAKKL in order to use the Product or Services. Accordingly, you may be asked to supply certain information.
d. Automatic Renewal. To ensure uninterrupted service, recurring Paid Services are automatically renewed. This means that unless you cancel a Paid Service before the end of the applicable subscription period, it will automatically renew, and you authorize us to use any payment mechanism we have on record for you, like credit cards or PayPal, or crypto to collect the then-applicable subscription fee as well as any Taxes. By default, your Paid Services will be renewed for the same interval as your original subscription period, so for example, if you purchase a one-year subscription for an advanced security plan, you'll be charged each year for access for another 12-month period. We may charge your account up to one month before the end of the subscription period to make sure pesky billing issues don't inadvertently disrupt your access to our Services. The date for the automatic renewal is based on the date of the original purchase and cannot be changed. If you've purchased access to multiple services, you may have multiple renewal dates.
To review renewal dates and manage subscriptions for any other Paid Services, please consult the respective Service's website portal or contact the support team. You'll need to check your email (including in spam or other filters) for any reminder emails we might send you before your Paid Services renew.
e. Cancelling Automatic Renewal. You can manage and cancel any Paid Services at the respective Service's website portal.
If auto-renew is successfully turned off, you'll see the date on which your subscription expires. If you have multiple Paid Services to cancel, repeat this process for each subscription.
f. Fees and Changes. We may change our fees at any time in accordance with these Terms and requirements under applicable law. This means that we may change our fees going forward, start charging fees for Services that were previously free, or remove or update features or functionality that were previously included in the fees. If you don't agree with the changes, you must cancel your Paid Service.
g. No-Show Policy. We may have a “no-show policy” for some Paid Services that require your participation. For instance, this may mean that if you don't show up or are late for a scheduled session or training, you'll still be charged and won't be entitled to a refund.
h. Refunds. We may have a refund policy for some of our Paid Services, and we'll also provide refunds if required by law. In all other cases, there are no refunds and all payments are final.
i. The specified Fees and prices for Credits are exclusive of any federal, state, local or other taxes, and you will be solely responsible for such taxes;
The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) begins on the Effective Date and continues until terminated in accordance with its terms. Unless mutually agreed otherwise in writing during the Term, you must stop accessing and using the Product and Services at the end of the Term.
YAKKL may suspend or restrict your rights in or access to the Product or Services, or immediately terminate this Agreement, in whole or in part at any time and without prior notice, including if YAKKL reasonably believes that you have violated this Agreement, or if your use of the Product or Services exceeds reasonable usage as determined from time to time by YAKKL in its sole discretion. Upon termination of this Agreement: (a) the licenses granted to you will immediately terminate; (b) you will immediately cease all access to and use of the Product and Services, and you acknowledge that you may no longer have access to any Customer Data; and (c) you will promptly return or permanently destroy all Confidential Information in your possession or control, and certify that you are in compliance with the foregoing. Sections 2, 4, 6(a)–(c) and (f), 7 (with respect to any amounts accrued during the Term) and 8–18 will survive termination of this Agreement.
We may ask you to make adjustments, restrict the resources or terminate your access to the Services, if we believe your website's, application's, or API's bandwidth usage burdens our systems (which is rare and typically only occurs when a website or application is used by multiple sites or applications), or (iii) terminate or deny access to and use of any of our Services to any individual or entity for any reason. We will have no obligation to provide a refund of any fees previously paid.
You can stop using our Services at any time, or, if you use a Paid Service, you can cancel at any time, subject to the Fees, Payment, and Renewal section of these Terms.
a. You represent and warrant that: (a) the Customer Data is not unlawful or tortious, and you own or have procured sufficient licenses, rights, consents and permissions, and provided sufficient notices, including as required by applicable privacy laws, rules and regulations, and consistent with any applicable privacy policies, to provide the Customer Data to YAKKL for use as set forth in this Agreement; (b) the Customer Data, including YAKKL's use of the Customer Data in accordance with this Agreement, does not and will not infringe, misappropriate or otherwise violate any intellectual property or other proprietary rights of any third party, including any privacy rights; (c) you shall, in connection with your use of the Product and Services, and the development, distribution and use of any Customer Application, comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations (including privacy laws), and shall not violate or interfere with any obligations or restrictions imposed on you or any End User by any third party; and (d) you have obtained from each End User all applicable rights, consents and permissions for YAKKL to access such End User’s third-party accounts, using such End User’s credentials, in operating the Products and Services, including as required by Section 6(f) above.

e. YAKKL assumes no responsibility for errors or omissions in the contents of the Product/Service.
In no event shall YAKKL be liable for any special, direct, indirect, consequential, or incidental damages or any damages whatsoever, whether in an action of contract, negligence or other tort, arising out of or in connection with the use of the Service or the contents of the Service. YAKKL reserves the right to make additions, deletions, or modifications to the contents on the Product/Service at any time without prior notice.

“Confidential Information” means the terms of this Agreement, any trade secrets or other confidential or proprietary contained within the Product or Services, and other information identified by YAKKL as confidential at the time of disclosure, or that a reasonable person would consider confidential due to its nature or the circumstances of its disclosure. Confidential Information includes the Product and all Feedback. You will maintain all Confidential Information in confidence, and not disclose any such Confidential Information to a third party or use such Confidential Information except as permitted under this Agreement. You will take all reasonable precautions necessary to ensure that Confidential Information is not disclosed by you (or your employees, agents or users) to any third party, using a degree of care that is at least as protective as the care you use to maintain the confidentiality of your own confidential information of similar importance (and in no case less than a reasonable degree of care). You will immediately notify YAKKL of any unauthorized access to or disclosure of Confidential Information. The obligations related to Confidential Information in this Section 13 will not apply to information that: (a) is or becomes part of the public domain through no act or omission of yours; (b) was in your lawful possession before receipt from YAKKL, through no breach of an obligation of confidentiality or other restriction on disclosure; (c) is lawfully disclosed to you by a third party without restriction on disclosure; or (d) is independently developed by you without use of Confidential Information, as shown by written contemporaneous documentation. You agree that any breach of this Section 13 may cause irreparable harm to YAKKL, and that you will be entitled to seek equitable relief in addition to all other remedies provided by this Agreement or available at law.
Certain features or functionality of the Product or Services may include or make available access to information, components, products, services and other materials made available by third parties, including End User accounts maintained by third parties (“Third Party Components”), or allow for the routing or transmission of such Third Party Components, including via application program interfaces.
YAKKL neither controls nor endorses, nor is responsible for, any Third Party Components, including the accuracy, validity, timeliness, completeness, reliability, integrity, quality, legality, usefulness or safety of Third Party Components, or any intellectual property rights therein. Certain Third Party Components may, among other things, be inaccurate, misleading or deceptive. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a representation or warranty by YAKKL with respect to any Third Party Components. YAKKL have no obligation to monitor Third Party Components, and YAKKL may block or disable access to any Third Party Components through the Product or Services at any time.
IF YOU ELECT TO USE ANY THIRD PARTY COMPONENTS FOR WHICH YAKKL PROVIDES AN INTEGRATION, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR OBTAINING AND PAYING FOR ANY APPLICABLE THIRD-PARTY SUBSCRIPTIONS AND LICENSES. YOUR USE OF THIRD PARTY COMPONENTS IS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND IS SUBJECT TO ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS, CONDITIONS AND POLICIES APPLICABLE TO SUCH THIRD PARTY COMPONENTS, AS MADE FROM TIME TO TIME (SUCH AS TERMS OF SERVICE OR PRIVACY POLICIES OF THE PROVIDERS OF SUCH THIRD PARTY COMPONENTS), AND YOU HEREBY AGREE TO COMPLY WITH SUCH ADDITIONAL TERMS, CONDITIONS AND POLICIES.
You will not assign, subcontract or delegate this Agreement or any rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement to any other person or entity without YAKKL's prior written consent. An equity sale or purchase, merger (including by operation of law) or other change of control will be considered an assignment for purposes of this Section 15. YAKKL may assign, subcontract or delegate this Agreement, or any rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, without restriction. Any assignment in violation of this provision will be null and void.
For business customers only, YAKKL may identify you as YAKKL's customer in marketing, promotional and other materials, and may place your name and logo on YAKKL's websites. YAKKL may also reasonably request (with your consent not to be unreasonably withheld) that you participate in other publicity activities, including providing a quote for an YAKKL press release and acting as a reference for other prospective YAKKL clients. You hereby grant to YAKKL and its designees a nonexclusive, fully paid-up, worldwide license to use and display your trade names, trademarks, and service marks (including logos) in connection with the foregoing. All such use shall be in accordance with good trademark usage practices, and all goodwill arising from such use shall inure solely to your benefit.
This Agreement is made and will be governed by the state and federal laws of Delaware, United States, excluding its choice of law principles. Any dispute arising under or relating to this Agreement will be resolved exclusively by arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, with the venue of any such arbitration proceeding to be in Cartersville, Georgia, United States, or such other location as may be agreed by the Parties. The arbitrator for any dispute will be selected according to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association and will have experience with intellectual property licensing agreements. The award rendered by the arbitrator will be final, will identify a winning party, and judgment may be entered upon the award in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction. The fees and expenses of the arbitrator will be shared by the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement in any forum having proper jurisdiction.
This Agreement constitutes the complete agreement between the Parties relating to the matters specified in this Agreement, and supersedes all prior representations or agreements, whether oral or written, with respect to such matters. This Agreement may be amended or superseded only by a writing signed by the Parties. If any provision (or any part thereof) is unenforceable under or prohibited by any present or future law, then that provision (or part thereof) is hereby amended, so as to comply with such law, while preserving to the maximum extent possible the intent of the original provision. Any provision (or part thereof) that cannot be so amended will be severed from this Agreement; and all the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in effect. Failure by either Party to complain of any act or failure to act of the other Party, or to declare the other Party in default, regardless of the duration of the default, will not constitute a waiver of rights under this Agreement. The word “including” means “including without limitation”. The word “or” means “and/or”. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including via PDF copies or electronic signatures), all of which taken together are treated as a single original agreement. Notices to you (including notices of changes to this Agreement) may be made via posting to YAKKL's website or by e-mail (including in each case via links), or by regular mail. YAKKL will not be responsible for any failure to fulfill any obligation due to any cause beyond its control.
You may not use the Services if such use is inconsistent with U.S. sanctions law or if you are on any list maintained by a U.S. government authority relating to designated, restricted or prohibited persons.
These Terms were originally written in English (US). We may translate these terms into other languages, and in the event of a conflict between a translated version of these Terms and the English version, the English version will control.
The Agreement (together with any other terms we provide that apply to any specific Service) constitutes the entire agreement between YAKKL and you concerning our Services. If any part of the Agreement is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part is severable from the Agreement, and does not affect the validity or enforceability of the rest of the Agreement. A waiver by either party of any term or condition of the Agreement or any breach thereof, in any one instance, will not waive such term or condition or any subsequent breach thereof.
YAKKL may assign its rights under the Agreement without condition. You may only assign your rights under the Agreement with our prior written consent.
