Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Cloudpager may be provided to You without charge for a specified trial period. After the end of the trial period, You will be required to pay a fee for the continued use of Cloudpager. You can use the [tools] supplied to You by Numecent to cloudify Your Application for deployment on Cloudpager free of charge. If You choose to have Numecent cloudify Your Application, You agree to pay to Numecent the fees specified by Numecent on or before the deadline specified on each invoice provided by Numecent.

For all purchased Cloudpager services, we will charge You at the interval indicated in Numecent’s fees and payment policies, if different. You agree that You authorize all such charges. Late payments may bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). Charges are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for paying all taxes and government charges, and all reasonable expenses and attorneys’ fees Numecent incurs collecting late amounts. To the fullest extent permitted by law, You waive all claims relating to charges unless claimed within sixty (60) days after the charge (this does not affect Your credit card issuer rights). Charges are solely based on Numecent’s measurements of Your use of Cloudpager, unless otherwise agreed to in writing. To the fullest extent permitted by law, refunds (if any) are at the discretion of Numecent and only in the form of credit for Cloudpager. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Numecent to extend credit to any party. You acknowledge and agree that any credit card and related billing and payment information that You provide to Numecent may be shared by Numecent with companies who work on Numecent’s behalf, such as payment processors and/or credit agencies, solely for the purposes of checking credit, effecting payment to Numecent and servicing Your account. Numecent may also provide information in response to valid legal process, such as subpoenas, search warrants and court orders, or to establish or exercise its legal rights or defend against legal claims. Numecent shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of such information by such third parties. Numecent reserves the right to discontinue the provision of Cloudpager to You for any late payments.

You may not access Cloudpager in a manner intended to avoid incurring fees. Numecent may change its fees and payment policies for Cloudpager by notifying You at least fifteen (15) days before the beginning of the billing cycle in which such change will take effect. Changes to the fees or payment policies will be posted on the website (or such other URL Numecent may provide from time to time). Any outstanding balance becomes immediately due and payable upon termination of the Terms for any reason.

Fees are non-refundable except as required by law. You are responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to Numecent. Numecent may suspend or terminate the services provided under this Agreement is fees are overdue.

You shall reimburse Numecent for, or if You notify Numecent, You shall directly remit to tax authorities any sales tax, use tax, value added tax, or goods and services tax. If You are required by law to withhold any taxes, You must provide Numecent with an official tax receipt or other appropriate documentation.

You may not (and You may not permit anyone else to): (a) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, decompile or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of Cloudpager or any part thereof, unless this is expressly permitted or required by law, or unless You have been specifically told that You may do so by Numecent, in writing (e.g., through an open source software license); or (b) attempt to disable or circumvent any security mechanisms used by Cloudpager or any Applications running on Cloudpager.

Open source software licenses for components of Cloudpager released under an open source license constitute separate written agreements.

Numecent hereby grants You a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free, non-transferable license, with no right to sub-license, to display the Numecent trademarks and/or logos as provided here (the “Marks”) for the sole purpose of promoting or advertising that You use Cloudpager and solely in accordance with Numecent’s then-current Trademark Usage Guidelines, which may be found at Numecent Trademark Usage Guidelines. You agree that all goodwill generated through Your use of the Numecent Marks shall inure to the benefit of Numecent.

Any acquisition by You of such non-Numecent products or services, and any exchange of data between You and any non-Numecent provider, is solely between You and the applicable non-Numecent provider. We do not warrant or support non-Numecent Applications or other non-Numecent products or services, whether or not they are designated by Numecent as “certified” or otherwise, except as specified in an Order Form.

Exhibit A – Support of Numecent Cloud Services and Software Solution

1. Support and Maintenance Levels

Numecent shall provide Third Level Support Services to the Customer and the Customer shall provide First and Second Level Support Services to its prospective end-users. Support and Maintenance applies to both the Numecent Cloud Services & Software Solution. This Service Level Agreement applies to customers that accept the Numecent Terms of Service (https://numecentcloud.com/service/tos.do) and End User License Agreement (https://www.numecent.com/eula).

First & Second Level Support Services

The Customer will supply First and Second Level Support. First Level Support means the initial response (and any follow-up response, as appropriate) to a user-initiated support request by the Customer’s support staff. First Level Support shall include call logging, initial information gathering and verification of entitlement to support, answering product installation, configuration and usage questions as well as problem isolation, identification, replication and troubleshooting. The latest patch for supported versions listed on the Numecent support site must be applied in order to be eligible for support assistance.

Second Level Support includes problem isolation, identification and replication and the determination by the Customer’s technical staff in reviewing all reported issues to determine if the problem occurs in the Cloud Services & Software Solution or in the Customer’s software.  If the Customer determines that the problem occurs in the Cloud Services & Software Solution, the Customer will first attempt using known methods to resolve the problem. The Customer may then report the issue to Numecent Support staff via the support web portal or via e-mail. If Numecent Support is unable to replicate the issue, the Customer shall provide such additional information reasonably required (which may include a sample program enabling replication of the issue). The Customer shall also make its personnel available to Numecent Support to assist in problem identification and resolution of all reported issues.

Customer shall collect log files, screenshots, error codes, and other supporting materials as deemed relevant to the issue and submit the supporting materials to Numecent within a reasonable amount of time. 

Third Level Support Services

Numecent will supply Third Level Support for the Cloud Services & Software Solution to the Customer. The Customer will designate a maximum of three (3) contacts within the organization to establish continuity of support with Numecent.

Numecent will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to resolve any problems within the target times specified in under the Service Level Agreement (SLA) as listed below. Service Level Agreements are specific and separate for the Numecent Cloud Services and the Software Solution as outlined below.

Problem Determination

Numecent will provide access to product guides, FAQs, and the knowledgebase system to the Customer’s support staff. This knowledgebase system will assist the Customer in determining if the issue is with the Licensed Software. The guides and knowledgebase will include all updates and procedures for both the Cloud Services and Software Solution, such as security updates for the Software Solution.

In order to ensure that problems with the Cloud Services or Software Solution may be correctly diagnosed, Customer will provide reasonable access (including access on a remote basis) to Customer’s personnel, premises, user equipment, and user data as and when requested by Numecent in the context of a problem investigation, without charge to Numecent. Failure to provide such access may prohibit effective action by Numecent and render Numecent unable to proceed.

2. Cloud Services – Service Level Agreement

Numecent Cloud Services are designed using industry best practices to achieve a high degree of service availability. The system is fully managed, highly available, and is monitored 24×7. In addition, all scheduled and emergency maintenance on the Cloud Services, which may affect customers, will be notified ahead of time. Numecent will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the Numecent Cloud Services are available with a Monthly Uptime.

Monthly Uptime Commitment: 99.95%

“Monthly Uptime” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of minutes during the full month in which any of the Services, as applicable, was in the state of “Unavailable”. Monthly Uptime measurements exclude downtime resulting from:

  • Scheduled maintenance windows.
  • Customer’s failure to follow configuration requirements for the Cloud Services as documented (https://support.numecent.com/en/support/solutions/articles/1000284991)
  • Customer’s employees, agents, contractors, or vendors, or anyone gaining access by means of Customer’s passwords or equipment, or otherwise resulting from Customer’s failure to follow appropriate security practices.
  • Caused by any component not managed by Numecent, such as Customer’s Internet Service Provider failures.
  • Service disruption due to Force Majeure, including, but not limited to, natural disasters, war or acts of terrorism, or government actions.

No Service Commitment is offered for any Numecent tech preview or Beta programs.

Incident Reporting and Responsiveness

Disruption in service can be reported to an automated escalation system by:

and leaving a brief description, region affect, and a call back number. This service is available 24 hours, 7 days a week for urgent or high impacting issues affecting the availability of Cloud Services. Numecent Support will contact back to communicate status on a resolution.

Cloud Services Target Response Times
Urgent1 hour
High4 hours
Medium / LowNext business day
Table 1- Cloud Services SLA

Each incident is given a severity level in accordance with the SLA. The Customer can set the severity initially, but it may be changed by the Support staff based on the criteria below. If an acceptable explanation or work-around is given, then the severity may be lowered.

  • URGENT – A critical business impact, such as severe loss or an outage of the services, that demands an immediate response. This level as this is reserved for end-user facing issues and does not include administrative functionality.
  • HIGH – A moderate impact to the business, such as a temporary loss or degradation of service, that required an expediated response.
  • MEDIUM/LOW – The issue has minimum impact to the business and only needs a response during normal business hours.

Customer reported incidents, severity levels, and status can be seen on the Numecent support portal at https://support.numecent.com. All service interruptions reports, status, and root cause analysis for Urgent level issues can also be viewed in the support portal or by following the Numecent support Twitter account @numecent_tech.

Scheduled Maintenance

Scheduled Maintenance of the Cloud Services may occur monthly, after Numecent business hours from 6 pm to 12 am Pacific Time, and can temporarily withdraw the availability of the Cloud Services. Such Scheduled Maintenance will be posted to the Cloud Services administration site and emailed to the Main Technical Contact no less than ten (10) Business Days with a notice of the intended maintenance time and period.

Emergency Maintenance will be performed outside the Normal Business Hours with advanced notice of no less than one (1) Business Day. Service interruptions due to Emergency Maintenance are not included in the Service Uptime Target.

Regular updates to the Cloud Services can occur weekly during Numecent normal business hours, but do not affect the uptime commitment and are included in the Service Uptime Commitment. Any disruption in the Cloud Services will be notified immediately along with restoration times.

Incident Escalation Procedures

Incidents are organized into three tiers (1, 2, and 3) defined by the age of the ticket and/or the severity of the problem reported. Tier-3 calls are escalated directly to a Support Manager to dispatch directly to knowledge experts. Appropriate support or on-call personnel handle all other tier issues. Tickets will be automatically escalated to the next tier if SLA response times are at risk or if the assigned agent has not begun remediation within 15 mins of the reported incident. If the SLA response time is not met, the Customer can escalate to tier-3 by calling 949-833-2800 x3 to reach a specialist.

Service Credits

If Numecent confirms that there is a failure to meet the Monthly Uptime Commitment in a particular calendar month, then the Customer may make a request for service credit within thirty (30) days after the end of such calendar month.

Monthly Uptime Percentage: < 99.95%  
Service Credit: 10% off for applicable month(s)

The Customer will be entitled to a credit based on (a) the monthly fees invoiced for the Cloud Services in the month experiencing such failure, with a monthly subscription plan or (b) 1/12 of annual fees invoiced for the Cloud Services, with an annual plan. Service Credits are non-transferable and will be applied to Customer’s next monthly subscription or annual Service extension in the immediate renewal period.

Customer that purchases the Cloud Services through a reseller will receive a credit through the reseller. Numecent does not control resale pricing or resale credits. Credits do not include a right of offset on payments due to Numecent or a reseller.

3. Software Solution – Service Level Agreement

Each Service Level involves contacting the Numecent Support staff to help resolve specific symptoms encountered while using the Software Solution, where there is a reasonable expectation that the problems are caused by the Software Solution. Support incidents provide reactive support that focuses on a specific problem, error message, or functionality that is not working as intended. An incident is defined as a single support issue and the reasonable effort needed to resolve it. A single support issue is a problem that cannot be broken down into subordinate issues. If a problem consists of subordinate issues, each shall be considered a separate incident.

Incident Severity Levels

Each incident is given a severity level in accordance with the SLA. The Customer can set the severity initially, but it may be changed by the Support staff based on the criteria below. If an acceptable explanation or work-around is given, then the severity may be lowered.

  • URGENT – An Urgent priority issue is a reproducible emergency condition which renders the software or residing system inoperable.  The condition, such as data loss or corruption, requires an immediate solution that is not already available.
  • HIGH – A High priority issue is a reproducible condition which makes the use or continued use of any function difficult and/or causes serious limitations to the use of the software.
  • MEDIUM – A Medium priority issue is a reproducible limited problem condition which is not critical in that no loss of data occurs and which can circumvent or avoided on a temporary basis.
  • LOW – A Low priority issue is a minor problem condition or documentation error which can be easily circumvented or avoided.

NOTE: Feature requests are not considered severity incidents and instead are reviewed by product management as future change requests for new releases.

6. INFORMATION AND AUDIT

Customer acknowledges that Numecent is regularly audited by independent third-party auditors and/or internal auditors against the standards specified in the Numecent Security Standards. Upon request, Numecent shall supply (on a confidential basis) a summary copy of its audit report(s) to Customer, so that Customer can verify Numecent’s compliance with the audit standards against which it has been assessed, and this DPA. If the Agreement does not include a provision protecting Numecent’s confidential information, then any audit report(s) will be made available to Customer subject to a mutually agreed upon non-disclosure agreement covering those reports.

Numecent shall also provide written responses (on a confidential basis) to all reasonable requests for information made by Customer related to its Processing of the Customer Personal Data, including responses to information security and audit questionnaires that are necessary to confirm Numecent’s compliance with this DPA, provided that Customer shall not exercise this right more than once per year.

Customer agrees to exercise any right it may have to conduct an audit or inspection of Numecent’s technical and organization measures, including under the EU Standard Contractual Clauses if they apply, by instructing Numecent to carry out such audit. 

7. RETURNING OR DELETING THE CUSTOMER PERSONAL DATA

Upon termination or expiration of the Agreement, or anytime upon Customer’s written request, Numecent shall promptly return or delete all copies of the Customer Personal Data. Numecent shall not be required to return or delete the Customer Personal Data to the extent (i) Numecent is required by applicable law or order of a governmental or regulatory body to retain all or some of the Customer Personal Data, or (ii) Customer has not paid all amounts due under the Agreement.

8. SUB-PROCESSORS

Customer agrees that Numecent may engage Sub-processors to Process the Customer Personal Data on Customer’s behalf. Customer hereby consents to Numecent continuing to use any of Numecent’s Affiliates and all Sub-processors already engaged by Numecent as at the date of this DPA (a full list is available on request by contacting Numecent’s data privacy manager at privacy@numecent.com). Customer shall promptly take any reasonable action required or appropriate to facilitate or support any transfer of the Customer Personal Data to approved Sub-processors (e.g., updating registrations with Supervisory Authorities).

Numecent shall notify Customer of any new Sub-processor Numecent wishes to appoint to carry out Processing activities on behalf of Customer. If, within two (2) weeks of receipt of any such notice, Customer notifies Numecent in writing of any objections to the proposed appointment for legitimate reasons, Numecent shall work with Customer in good faith to take reasonable measures to address the objections raised by Customer, and where such measures cannot be agreed within three (3) weeks from Numecent’s receipt of Customer’s notice, Customer may by written notice to Numecent with immediate effect terminate the Agreement to the extent that it relates to the Services which require the use of the proposed Sub-processor. “Legitimate reasons” shall be deemed given if there is an indication based on objective facts which reasonably support the assumption that the engagement of the Sub-processor would breach applicable law or this DPA.

Where Numecent engages a Sub-processor to carry out specific Processing activities on behalf of Customer, Numecent shall enter into a written agreement with the Sub-processor which includes terms that offer the same level of protection for the Customer Personal Data as those set out in this DPA.

Notwithstanding any approval by Customer within the meaning of Section 8.1, Numecent shall remain fully liable vis-à-vis Customer for the performance of any such Sub-processor that fails to fulfil its data protection obligations under this DPA and/or any applicable Data Protection Laws.

9. TRANSFERS of PERSONAL INFORMATION

To the extent that Numecent Processes any Customer Personal Data in a country that is neither a Member State nor considered by the European Commission to have adequate level of protection for personal information, Numecent will (i) enter into EU Standard Contractual Clauses with Customer, unless Numecent can demonstrate adherence to one of the other statutory Transfer mechanisms approved by the European Commission, such as the Privacy Shield.

To the extent that Customer or Numecent are relying on a specific statutory mechanism to normalize international Personal Data Transfers that is subsequently modified, revoked, or held in a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, Customer and Numecent agree to cooperate in good faith to promptly terminate the Transfer or to pursue a suitable alternative mechanism that can lawfully support the transfer.

For the purposes of Section 9, Numecent and Customer agree that incorporation of the EU Standard Contractual Clauses or Privacy Shield into this DPA shall act as a legally-binding execution. 

10. INFORMATION OBLIGATIONS AND PERSONAL DATA BREACH

If Numecent becomes aware of a Personal Data Breach that impacts the Processing of the Customer Personal Data that is the subject of the Agreement and is reasonably likely to require a data breach notification by Customer under the GDPR, Numecent will without undue delay: (a) notify Customer of the Personal Data Breach; and (b) take reasonable steps to minimize any damage resulting from the Personal Data Breach.

To assist Customer in relation to any Personal Data Breach notifications Customer is required to make under the GDPR, Numecent will include in the notification under Section 10 (a) such information about the Personal Data Breach as Numecent is reasonably able to disclose to Customer, taking into account the nature of the Services, the information available to Numecent, and any restrictions on disclosing the information, such as confidentiality.

Customer agrees that:

  1. An unsuccessful Personal Data Breach will not be subject to this Section 10. An unsuccessful Personal Data Breach is one that results in no unauthorized access to the Customer Personal Data or to any of Numecent’s equipment or facilities storing the Customer Personal Data, and may include, without limitation, pings and other broadcast attacks on firewalls or edge servers, port scans, unsuccessful log-on attempts, denial of service attacks, packet sniffing (or other unauthorized access to traffic data that does not result in access beyond headers) or similar incidents; and
  2. Numecent’s obligation to report or respond to a Personal Data Breach under this Section 10 is not and will not be construed as an acknowledgment by Numecent of any fault or liability of Numecent with respect to the Personal Data Breach.

Notification of Personal Data Breaches, if any, will be delivered to one or more of Customer’s administrators by any means Numecent selects, including via email. It is Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure Customer’s administrators maintain accurate contact information on Numecent’s systems, and secure transmission at all times.

Customer acknowledges that Numecent will not assess the contents of the Customer Personal Data in order to identify information subject to any specific legal requirements. Customer is solely responsible for complying with the data breach notification obligations applicable to Customer under the GDPR and fulfilling any third-party notification obligations related to any Personal Data Breach.

11. LIABILITY

The liability of each Party under this Addendum shall be subject to the exclusions and limitations of liability set out in the Agreement. Customer agrees that any regulatory penalties incurred by Numecent in relation to the Customer Personal Data that arise as a result of, or in connection with, Customer’s failure to comply with its obligations under this Addendum and the GDPR shall count towards and reduce Numecent’s liability under the Agreement as if it were a liability to Customer under the Agreement.

12. GENERAL

If any provision of this DPA is ineffective or void, this shall not affect the remaining provisions. The parties shall replace the ineffective or void provision with a lawful provision that reflects the business purpose of the ineffective or void provision. In case a necessary provision is missing, the parties shall add an appropriate one in good faith.

In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this DPA and the provisions of the Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

This DPA will be governed and construed in accordance with the governing law and applicable jurisdiction provisions of the Agreement, unless required by applicable Data Protection Law.

Except as otherwise detailed herein, the terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect.
