Recruitics may use all suggestions, enhancements and feedback provided by Client without restriction. All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by Recruitics.
Client acknowledges that the rendering of the Services will require the good faith cooperation of Client. Therefore, Client agrees to provide all information reasonably requested by Recruitics in order to perform the Services, to timely respond to inquiries and to promptly review any deliverables. Recruitics reserves the right to reasonably extend the delivery schedule and/or assess reasonable additional charges to the extent required because of Client’s failure to cooperate as set forth herein. Recruitics may rely upon all decisions and approvals from Client, and Recruitics shall not be liable for any matter as a result of following Client’s specific instructions.
Recruitics may provide Client with an unlimited number of usernames for Client to access the Application. The username and password credentials provided should be safeguarded at all times. The credentials may only be used by the named individuals authorized by Recruitics and may not be used by any other employees, consultants, agents or third parties other than as authorized in writing by Recruitics. Client shall be liable for use of the credentials by all such parties. Client acknowledges that Recruitics may, from time to time, monitor the logon times and usage for the purpose of verifying that Client and its permitted users are the sole holder and user of the credentials. To the extent any party under the reasonable control of Client gains access to the Application through use of the credentials or by circumventing Recruitics’s security systems, Client shall be liable to compensate Recruitics for such usage as if such party were an additional user, in addition to any other liability. Client shall promptly notify Recruitics in writing if any credentials should be deactivated because of unauthorized use or sharing of the credentials or any other reason. Client shall not attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Application or any restricted portion of the Application, attempt to access any other user's data or otherwise compromise any aspect of the Application.

5. Warranties: Each party represents and warrants to the other party that: (i) it has the full corporate right, power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to perform the acts required of it hereunder, (ii) the execution of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations hereunder, do not and will not violate any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iii) when executed and delivered, this Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of such party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms and (iv) it shall at all times be in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations and the terms of any third party agreement to which it is subject. In the event that Client disputes the performance or quality of the Services, Client must notify Recruitics in writing within ninety (90) days of the performance of such Services. As Client’s sole and exclusive remedy for any dispute about the Services, Recruitics shall be obligated to re-perform any Services that have not been properly performed. Client acknowledges that it has not entered into this Agreement in reliance upon any statement, warranty or representation made by Recruitics or any other person and Client irrevocably and unconditionally waives any rights to claim damages and/or to rescind this Agreement by reason of any misrepresentation (other than a fraudulent misrepresentation) that is not contained in the Fasttrack Sales Order and any additional applicable Order Forms.
Certain Services may be dependent upon the products and services of third parties, such as search engines, email service providers, social media platforms, job sites and similar third parties not controlled by Recruitics. While Recruitics shall make commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any issues, Recruitics shall not be liable for the acts or omissions of such third parties, including the failure of the products or services of such third parties to operate as intended.
6. Limitation of Liability: In no event will either party be liable for any special, indirect, incidental or consequential damages (including without limitation, loss of use, data, business or profits or costs of cover) arising out of or in connection with this agreement, whether such liability arises from any claim based upon contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), product liability or otherwise, and whether or not it has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage. Recruitics’s cumulative liability to client, from all causes of action and all theories of liability, will be limited to and will not exceed the amounts paid to and retained by Recruitics during the twelve (12) months prior to such claim under this agreement.
7. Indemnities: Recruitics shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Client, its affiliates, successors and assigns, and each of their officers, directors, clients and agents (“Indemnitees”), against and from any and all third party claims, liabilities, damages, fines, penalties or costs of whatsoever nature (including reasonable attorney’s fees and costs) (“Claims”), arising out of or in any way connected with any third party intellectual property infringement by the Application when used as authorized or violation of laws applicable to Recruitics as a provider of the Services. Client shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Recruitics and its Indemnitees against and from any Claims arising out of or in any way connected with (i) information or materials provided by Client for use in connection with the Services or (ii) Client’s ultimate use of the Services, except to the extent caused by a breach of this Agreement by Recruitics. The indemnifying party's obligations are conditioned upon the indemnified party: (i) giving the indemnifying party prompt written notice of any claim, action, suit or proceeding for which the indemnified party is seeking indemnity (provided that a failure or delay in providing such notice shall not relieve the indemnifying party's obligations, except to the extent prejudiced by such failure or delay); (ii) granting complete control of the defense and settlement to the indemnifying party, provided that the indemnifying party will not acquiesce to any judgment or settlement without the indemnified party's prior written consent, unless it obtains a full and final release of all claims against the indemnified party and such judgment or settlement does not impose any requirements or restrictions upon the indemnified party; and (iii) reasonably cooperating with the indemnifying party, at the indemnifying party's expense, in the defense and settlement of such claim. The indemnifying party shall provide the indemnified party the option to engage separate counsel, at the indemnified party’s expense, to participate in any claim giving rise to indemnification hereunder. The indemnifying party may settle any claim, to the extent it seeks a money payment, with or without the consent of the indemnified party. The indemnifying party must obtain the indemnified party’s consent to any settlement to the extent it consents to injunctive relief or contains contract terms governing future activities that would materially affect the indemnified party’s business or interests, said consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
8. Force Majeure: Except for payment obligations, neither party shall be liable for any non-performance or loss resulting from causes out of its reasonable control, such as delays or interruptions due to electronic or mechanical equipment, telephone problems, and internet problems, defects due to storms, acts of government, strikes, labor or materials shortage or acts or omissions of suppliers.
9. Waiver: The waiver by either party of any terms, conditions, rights, duties or breaches of this Agreement shall not be continuing or constitute a waiver of any other term, condition, right, duty or breach.

The provisions of Sections 2, 3, 6-15 and any accrued payment obligations shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement.
