  8. Our communications to you may contain Hexoskin confidential information. If you receive any materials or communications that are clearly confidential or marked confidential, then you will not disclose the Hexoskin confidential information to any third party without Hexoskin's prior written consent.

Section 5: Content

Content Accessible Through our APIs

Our APIs contain some third party content (such as text, images, videos, audio, or software). This content is the sole responsibility of the person that makes it available. We may sometimes review content to determine whether it is illegal or violates our policies, and we may remove or refuse to display content. Finally, content accessible through our APIs may be subject to intellectual property rights, and, if so, you may not use it unless you are licensed to do so by the owner of that content or are otherwise permitted by law. Your access to the content provided by the API may be restricted, limited, or filtered in accordance with local laws, regulations, and policies.

Submission of Content

Some of our APIs allow the submission of content, and except as expressly provided in these terms, Hexoskin does not acquire any ownership of any intellectual property rights that you or your end users hold in the content that you submit to our APIs through your API Client. By submitting, posting or displaying content to or from the APIs through your API Client, you give Hexoskin a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish, publicly perform, publicly display and distribute such content. However, Hexoskin will only use such content for the purpose of enabling Hexoskin to provide the APIs and only in accordance with the applicable Hexoskin privacy policies. You agree that this license includes a right for Hexoskin to make such content available to other companies, organizations or individuals with whom Hexoskin has relationships for the provision of syndicated services, and to use such content in connection with the provision of those services. Before you submit content to our APIs through your API Client, ensure that you have the necessary rights (including the necessary rights from your end users) to grant us the license.

Retrieval of content

When a user's non-public content is obtained through the APIs, you may not expose that content to other users or to third parties without explicit opt-in consent from that user.

Data Portability

Hexoskin supports data portability. By accessing users' data through the APIs for use in any of your services or applications, you agree to enable your users of any such service or application to export their equivalent data to other services or applications of their choice in a way that's substantially as fast and easy as exporting such data from Hexoskin products and services, subject to applicable laws.

Prohibitions on Content

Unless expressly permitted by the content owner or by applicable law, you agree that you will not, and will not permit your end users to, do the following with content returned from the APIs:

  1. Scrape, build databases or otherwise create permanent copies of such content, or keep cached copies longer than permitted by the cache header;
  2. Copy, translate, modify, create a derivative work of, sell, lease, lend, convey, distribute, publicly display or sublicense to any third party;
  3. Misrepresent the source or ownership; or
  4. Remove, obscure, or alter any copyright, trademark or other proprietary rights notices, falsify or delete any author attributions, legal notices or other labels of the origin or source of material.

In using Hexoskin's Brand Features, you must follow the Hexoskin Brand Features Use Guidelines at www.hexoskin.com/en/brand-guidelines.html. You understand and agree that Hexoskin has the sole discretion to determine whether your attribution(s) and use of Hexoskin's Brand Features are in accordance with the above requirements and guidelines.

Publicity

You will not make any statement regarding your use of an API which suggests partnership with, sponsorship by or endorsement by Hexoskin without Hexoskin's prior written approval.

Promotional and Marketing Use

In the course of promoting, marketing, or demonstrating the APIs you are using and the associated Hexoskin products, Hexoskin may produce and distribute incidental depictions, including screenshots, video, or other content from your API Client, and may use your company or product name.

Section 8: Termination

Termination

Your Obligations Post-Termination

Upon any termination of these terms or discontinuation of your access to an API, you will immediately stop using the API, cease all use of the Hexoskin Brand Features, and delete any cached or stored content that was permitted by the cache header under Section 5. Hexoskin may independently communicate with any account owner whose account(s) are associated with your API Client and developer credentials to provide notice of the termination of your right to use an API.

Surviving Provisions

When these terms come to an end, those terms that by their nature are intended to continue indefinitely will continue to apply, including but not limited to: Sections 8, 9, and 10.

Section 9: Liability for our APIs

WARRANTIES

NEITHER HEXOSKIN NOR ITS SUPPLIERS OR DISTRIBUTORS MAKE ANY SPECIFIC PROMISES ABOUT THE APIS. FOR EXAMPLE, WE DON'T MAKE ANY COMMITMENTS ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE APIS OR THE CONTENT ACCESSED THROUGH THE APIS, THEIR RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY OR ABILITY TO MEET YOUR NEEDS. THE APIS AND CONTENT ACCESSED THROUGH THE APIS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS". SOME JURISDICTIONS PROVIDE FOR CERTAIN WARRANTIES, LIKE THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF THE MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE EXCLUDE ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

WHEN PERMITTED BY LAW, HEXOSKIN, AND HEXOSKIN'S SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS, WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR LOST PROFITS, REVENUES, OR DATA, FINANCIAL LOSSES OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL LIABILITY OF HEXOSKIN, AND ITS SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS, FOR ANY CLAIM UNDER THESE TERMS, INCLUDING FOR ANY WARRANTIES THAT MAY NOT LEGALLY BE EXCLUDED, IS LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US TO USE THE APIS (OR, IF WE CHOOSE, TO SUPPLYING YOU THE APIS AGAIN) DURING THE SIX MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE LIABILITY. NOTHING IN THESE TERMS LIMITS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. IN ALL CASES, HEXOSKIN, AND ITS SUPPLIERS AND DISTRIBUTORS, WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE THAT IS NOT REASONABLY FORESEEABLE.

Indemnification

You agree to hold harmless and indemnify Hexoskin, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, and employees, or partners, from and against any third party claim arising from or in any way related to:

  1. your misuse or your end user's misuse of the APIs; or
  2. your violation or your end user's violation of these terms,

including any liability or expense arising from all claims, losses, damages (actual and consequential), suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys' fees, of every kind and nature. In such a case, Hexoskin will provide you with written notice of such claim, suit or action.

Section 10: General Provisions

Modification

We may modify these terms or any additional terms that apply to an API occasionally, for example, to reflect changes to the law or changes to our APIs. We'll post notice of modifications to these terms or the additional terms within the documentation of each applicable API. Changes are effective seven (7) days after they are posted. However, changes specific to new functionality for an API or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. You agree that your continued use of the API constitutes an acceptance of the modified terms.

General Legal Terms

These terms control the relationship between Hexoskin and you. They do not create any third party beneficiary rights. If you do not comply with these terms, and Hexoskin does not take action right away, this does not mean that Hexoskin is giving up any rights that it may have (such as taking action in the future). If it turns out that a particular term is not enforceable, this will not affect any other terms. The laws of Quebec, Canada, will apply to any disputes arising out of or related to these terms or the services. ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES WILL BE LITIGATED EXCLUSIVELY IN THE PROVINCE OF QUEBEC, CANADA, AND YOU AND HEXOSKIN CONSENT TO PERSONAL JURISDICTION IN THOSE COURTS.
