海角乱伦

These base terms and conditions (which may also be referred to as the 鈥�base terms鈥� or 鈥�Base Terms鈥�) describe 海角乱伦鈥檚 minimum requirements for a vendor or service provider and may be attached to different types of commercial contracts, as follows:

1.1 If 海角乱伦 engages the Company by issuing a PO referencing these base terms by a URL and there is no other contract between the parties related to the subject matter of the PO, these base terms and any Attachments are incorporated into the PO and together comprise a Contract referred to as a 鈥�PO-Based Contract."

1.2 If 海角乱伦 enters into an engagement with the Company by attaching these base terms to an Order or referencing these base terms by URL in an Order (other than a PO), these base terms and any Attachments are incorporated into the Order and together comprise a Contract referred to as a 鈥�Single-Use Contract.鈥� A Single-Use Contract is effective when the Order is signed by both parties.

1.3 If 海角乱伦 and Company agree to terms governing one or more present or future Orders, these base terms and any Attachments and Orders referencing the Contract are incorporated into a Contract Cover Sheet and together comprise a Contract referred to as a 鈥�Master Contract.鈥� A Master Contract is effective when the Contract Cover Sheet is signed by both parties.

1.4 If 海角乱伦 issues a PO under a Master Contract or Single-Use Contract, the PO describes the quantity, nature, and price of the Goods and Services identified in the PO and the PO鈥檚 base terms linked by URL do not amend the Master Contract or Single-Use Contract.

1.5 If the parties (or their Affiliates) execute separate contracts that govern legal, regulatory, corporate responsibility, and industry requirements that 海角乱伦 requires vendors to comply with whether or not in the context of vendor relationships (each a 鈥�Corporate Responsibility Contract鈥�), the Corporate Responsibility Contracts govern this Contract to the extent applicable and, in the event of a conflict between this Contract and a Corporate Responsibility Contract, the Corporate Responsibility Contract will govern. If there is a conflict between Corporate Responsibility Contracts, the conflict will be resolved in the manner that permits 海角乱伦 to satisfy its legal, ethical, and commercial requirements and best practices.

1.6 If there is a conflict between the parts of this Contract: (A) an Attachment controls over these base terms; and (B) these base terms and any Attachments, respectively, control over any Order, Contract Cover Sheet, or PO.

1.7 Capitalized terms that are used but not otherwise defined in these base terms have the meaning assigned in the Definitions section. This Contract is not an exclusive arrangement. 海角乱伦 is permitted to negotiate and enter contracts with any person for the same or similar activities.

This section applies only to a PO-Based Contract. The PO is an offer to Company from 海角乱伦 to purchase Goods and Services described in the PO subject to these base terms and any Attachments. 海角乱伦 is permitted to cancel the PO, in whole or in part, before Company accepts the offer. The Contract is formed when Company accepts the offer. Company can accept the offer when it (a) expressly accepts the PO, (b) commences performance of any of the Goods and Services in the PO, or (c) fails to provide to 海角乱伦 a written rejection or a written counteroffer within 5 days after the Company鈥檚 receipt of the PO. By accepting the offer, the Company agrees that no Company terms and conditions apply to the Goods and Services and any such terms included with the Goods and Services are void. The Company acknowledges and agrees that 海角乱伦 would not engage the Company under any terms other than these base terms. If the PO refers to a project proposal or similar document from the Company, the reference will be limited to the description and quantity of Goods and Services described in the document if included in the PO.

Company will provide the services described in and subject to the Contract. The Company acknowledges that 海角乱伦 expects exceptional service, quality, professionalism and support from its vendors, and the Company must therefore provide services in accordance with the highest standards in its industry. Except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in the Contract, Company must perform its Contract obligations entirely within the United States and must not send or make available outside the United States any 海角乱伦 information. This section describes the Company鈥檚 minimum obligations with respect to services. An Attachment may provide additional or different terms for services (for example, a Master Services Attachment).

4.1 Company will provide the licenses described in and subject to the Contract. An Order will provide the license terms for any licensed materials, but if Company provides its intellectual property to 海角乱伦 and no license is specified, Company hereby grants to 海角乱伦 a worldwide, non-sublicensable, fully paid, royalty free license for 海角乱伦, its Affiliates, and its third party service providers to use the intellectual property to fulfill the purposes of this Contract and solely for the benefit of 海角乱伦 as long as such third party service providers are bound to confidentiality provisions no less stringent than those in the Confidentiality section of this Contract.

4.2 海角乱伦 and Company, respectively, own their previously existing or independently created intellectual property and retains their rights to third party intellectual property in their possession. Company assigns to 海角乱伦 and will perform all actions necessary to perfect the assignment of each deliverable and all intellectual property rights to any deliverables under the Contract. If protectable by copyright, Company and 海角乱伦 agree that deliverables are 鈥渨orks made for hire鈥� in favor of 海角乱伦 within the meaning of the United States Copyright Act of 1976. If an Order provides that Company will retain intellectual property rights to materials it creates for 海角乱伦, Company hereby grants to 海角乱伦 an exclusive right to the intellectual property for 3 years after its acceptance by 海角乱伦.

4.3 If Company incorporates its intellectual property into a deliverable, Company grants to 海角乱伦 a perpetual, worldwide, assignable license for 海角乱伦 and its third-party service providers to use that intellectual property in a manner consistent with 海角乱伦's use of the deliverable as described in the Contract (or, at minimum, in a commercially reasonable manner).

4.4 If 海角乱伦 provides any of its property to the Company, the Company is permitted to use such material only to perform its Goods and Services and for no other purpose whatsoever. If the Goods and Services include, for example, the use of 海角乱伦鈥檚 trademarks to create materials for the public (including 海角乱伦 personnel), the Company must seek 海角乱伦鈥檚 approval of each such use.

4.5 Company owns any feedback or suggestions made by 海角乱伦 only if 海角乱伦 submits the feedback or suggestion using a feedback form (such as on a website or within an application) except that (a) the feedback and suggestions are provided "AS IS" and 海角乱伦 disclaims all representations and warranties relating thereto, and (b) 海角乱伦 retains all intellectual property rights with respect to its confidential information. 海角乱伦 retains all rights to any feedback or suggestions submitted any other way.

Company will deliver the goods described in and subject to this Contract. Title to goods will pass to 海角乱伦 upon the earlier of (1) delivery at 海角乱伦鈥檚 designated facility or destination or (2) payment. Company will bear risk of loss until delivery at 海角乱伦鈥檚 designated facility or destination. Company will include a packing slip clearly identifying this Contract (and applicable PO number, if any) with each shipment of goods. 海角乱伦鈥檚 count of delivered goods will be deemed final and conclusive for goods delivered without a packing slip. Company will secure the lowest transportation and insurance rates and fulfill any carrier requirements. 海角乱伦 will have no obligation to pay drayage, boxing or packing charges except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in the Contract. Company will be responsible for shipping costs for goods that are not shipped as provided for in this Contract, and 海角乱伦 is permitted to (a) deduct these costs from amounts it owes to Company or (b) require Company to pay the costs directly. In the absence of specific instructions, Company will ship goods using the most economical mode of commercially reasonable transportation available consistent with the time and handling requirements in the Contract. This section describes the Company鈥檚 minimum obligations with respect to goods. An Attachment may provide additional or different requirements for certain Goods and Services (for example, a Master Purchase Attachment).

海角乱伦 has the right to accept or reject Goods and Services. 海角乱伦 is permitted to reject Goods and Services that 海角乱伦 determines in its sole discretion do not to strictly conform to 海角乱伦鈥檚 Requirements. Payment for any part of the Goods and Services does not constitute acceptance by 海角乱伦. At 海角乱伦鈥檚 request, Company will promptly correct or replace nonconforming Goods and Services at Company鈥檚 sole cost until the Goods and Services are conforming. If Company does not promptly correct or replace nonconforming Goods and Services, Company must refund all amounts paid for the nonconforming Goods and Services and reimburse (or, at 海角乱伦鈥檚 request, offset the amounts against any other amounts owed by 海角乱伦) 海角乱伦鈥檚 costs to correct or replace the nonconforming Goods and Services. 海角乱伦 has the right to return rejected Goods and Services or Goods and Services supplied in excess of quantities stated in this Contract at Company鈥檚 expense. 海角乱伦 and Company will comply with the Testing and Acceptance Attachment, if attached.

8.1 Each party is required to hold the other party鈥檚 confidential information in confidence and will protect the other party鈥檚 confidential information using the level of care the party receiving confidential information (or creating confidential information on the other party鈥檚 behalf) would use to protect its own sensitive and confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care.

If a party is required to disclose confidential information by Law, it will, if permitted by Law, provide the other party with prompt written notice so that the other party can seek a protective order. Any person to whom the receiving party discloses the disclosing party鈥檚 confidential information must be bound by confidentiality terms no less stringent than those in this section.

8.4 A party will notify the other party of a breach of this section or any other improper disclosure of confidential information within 24 hours after it has reason to believe the breach or disclosure occurred.

9.1 Prices set forth in this Contract are firm and not subject to change except as expressly provided otherwise in the Order. If Company replaces Goods and Services with another, higher-priced good, deliverable, or service acceptable to 海角乱伦, the price in the Order for the replaced good, deliverable, or service will apply to the new good, deliverable, or service. Without limiting any of 海角乱伦鈥檚 other rights or remedies under this Contract, if Company replaces any Goods and Services with another good, deliverable, or service with reduced quality, functionality, or features, 海角乱伦 may at its sole discretion accept the Goods and Services and reduce fees equitably. Company warrants that prices for Goods and Services must be no greater than the lowest price Company offers to its customers for similar Goods and Services and will reduce its prices under this Contract correspondingly. 海角乱伦鈥檚 sole financial obligation for Goods and Services will be the fees described in this Contract.

If the dispute is not resolved informally within 30 days after 海角乱伦鈥檚 notice thereof, 海角乱伦 or Company will then be permitted to pursue their respective rights or remedies available under this Contract, at law or equity. If attached, this dispute is subject to the Dispute Resolution Attachment. 海角乱伦 is permitted to set off claims or amounts that Company or its Affiliates owe under the Contract against any amounts 海角乱伦, or its Affiliates owe under this Contract or any other contracts with Company or its Affiliates.

Additionally, 海角乱伦 will be responsible for any personal property taxes imposed on all materials owned by 海角乱伦, including both inventory and finished, products, goods, and services, and held at Company鈥檚 plants or warehouses, all as determined by the transfer of title for finished goods. If upon audit Company is assessed additional taxes in connection with this Contract or the Goods and Services, Company reserves the right to invoice 海角乱伦 retroactively for such additional assessment for taxes, but not interest and penalties. 海角乱伦 reserves the right to require that any such invoiced additional taxes be appealed through the respective authoritative governmental body鈥檚 administrative and judicial processes. The cost of such an appeal will be borne by Company if the assessed additional tax is reduced, and by 海角乱伦 if the assessed additional tax is upheld. 海角乱伦 may provide Company with an exemption certificate, prepared as per applicable law, or any other evidence reasonably acceptable to Company that any such taxes do not apply to products, goods and other Goods and Services provided to 海角乱伦 by Company. If any Goods and Services or portion thereof believed to be exempt from taxes based on such certificate, is determined subsequently to be taxable, 海角乱伦 shall hold Company harmless from the tax liability assessed and pay the tax due, including any interests and penalty. 海角乱伦 will not be responsible for any taxes levied or imposed on the gross or net income of Company. In no event will 海角乱伦鈥檚 obligation exceed the relevant state statute of limitations on assessment of an applicable tax.
