Terms of Service
Please read these terms carefully. By using Polarity, you agree to the Terms of Service below.
Service
Access and Use.
During the Subscription Period and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Customer may (a) access and use the Cloud Service; and (b) copy and use the included Software and Documentation only as needed to access and use the Cloud Service, in each case, for its internal business purposes. If a Customer Affiliate enters a separate Order Form with Provider, the Customer's Affiliate creates a separate agreement between Provider and that Affiliate, where Provider's responsibility to the Affiliate is individual and separate from Customer and Customer is not responsible for its Affiliates' agreement.
Support.
During the Subscription Period, Provider will provide Technical Support as described in the Order Form.
User Accounts.
Customer is responsible for all actions on Users' accounts and for all Users' compliance with this Agreement. Customer and Users must protect the confidentiality of their passwords and login credentials. Customer will promptly notify Provider if it suspects or knows of any fraudulent activity with its accounts, passwords, or credentials, or if they become compromised.
Feedback and Usage Data.
Customer may, but is not required to, give Provider Feedback, in which case Customer gives Feedback "AS IS". Provider may use all Feedback freely without any restriction or obligation. In addition, Provider may collect and analyze Usage Data, and Provider may freely use Usage Data to maintain, improve, enhance, and promote Provider's products and services without restriction or obligation. However, Provider may only disclose Usage Data to others if the Usage Data is aggregated and does not identify Customer or Users.
Customer Content.
Provider may copy, display, modify, and use Customer Content only as needed to provide and maintain the Product and related offerings. Customer is responsible for the accuracy and content of Customer Content.
Machine Learning.
Usage Data and Customer Content may be used to develop, train, or enhance artificial intelligence or machine learning models that are part of Provider's products and services, including third-party components of the Product, and Customer authorizes Provider to process its Usage Data and Customer Content for such purposes. However, (a) Usage Data and Customer Content must be aggregated before it can be used for these purposes, and (b) Provider will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with industry standard technology to de-identify Usage Data and Customer Content before such use. Nothing in this section will reduce or limit Provider's obligations regarding Personal Data that may be contained in Usage Data or Customer Content under Applicable Data Protection Laws. Due to the nature of artificial intelligence and machine learning, information generated by these features may be incorrect or inaccurate. Product features that include artificial intelligence or machine learning models are not human and are not a substitute for human oversight.
Restrictions & Obligations
Restrictions on Customer.
Except as expressly permitted by this Agreement, Customer will not (and will not allow anyone else to):
- (i) reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to discover any source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of the Product (except to the extent Applicable Laws prohibit this restriction);

If Customer (a) has an outstanding, undisputed balance on its account for more than 30 days; (b) breaches Section 2.1 (Restrictions on Customer); or (c) uses the Product in violation of the Agreement or in a way that materially and negatively impacts the Product or others, then Provider may temporarily suspend Customer's access to the Product with or without notice. However, Provider will try to inform Customer before suspending Customer's account when practical. Provider will reinstate Customer's access to the Product only if Customer resolves the underlying issue.
Privacy & Security
Personal Data.
Before submitting Personal Data governed by GDPR, Customer must enter into a data processing agreement with Provider. If the parties have a DPA, each party will comply with its obligations in the DPA, the terms of the DPA will control each party's rights and obligations as to Personal Data, and the terms of the DPA will control in the event of any conflict with this Agreement.
Prohibited Data.
Customer will not (and will not allow anyone else to) submit Prohibited Data to the Product unless authorized by the Order Form or Key Terms.
