The Compliance Store Terms of Use

Version 1.0

Last Updated January 1, 2023

Provision Analytics Inc. ("Provision") owns and operates an online marketplace through which third-party experts (the "Template Providers") provide digital record, policy, and procedure templates (the "Digital Templates") that Clients can purchase for use within Provision's cloud-based food safety and quality assurance software (the "Provision Platform"). The online marketplace, the Digital Templates, and the Website all form the "Compliance Store".

These Compliance Store Terms of Use (together with any Subscription Form or exhibits hereto, the "Agreement") form an agreement between the user accessing or otherwise using the Compliance Store (the "Client") and is entered into on the date the Client first clicks 'accept' to the Agreement or uses the Compliance Store (the "Effective Date"). Each of Provision and Client shall individually be referred to as a "Party" and jointly as the "Parties".

BY USING THE COMPLIANCE STORE (INCLUDING ANY OF THE DIGITAL TEMPLATES), CLIENT ACKNOWLEDGES THAT CLIENT HAS READ, ACCEPTS AND AGREES TO BE BOUND BY AND COMPLY WITH THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET OUT IN THIS AGREEMENT, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 11(k). IF CLIENT DOES NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT, CLIENT WILL IMMEDIATELY CEASE ANY FURTHER USE OF THE COMPLIANCE STORE. CLIENT REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO PROVISION THAT CLIENT HAS THE CAPACITY TO ENTER INTO THIS LEGALLY BINDING AGREEMENT. IF CLIENT IS USING THE COMPLIANCE STORE ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER PERSON, CLIENT HEREBY REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS TO PROVISION THAT CLIENT HAS THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH PERSON TO THIS AGREEMENT.

THE COMPLIANCE STORE MAY NOT BE ACCESSED FOR PURPOSES OF MONITORING ITS AVAILABILITY, PERFORMANCE OR FUNCTIONALITY, OR FOR ANY OTHER BENCHMARKING OR COMPETITIVE PURPOSES. PROVISION'S DIRECT COMPETITORS ARE PROHIBITED FROM ACCESSING THE COMPLIANCE STORE, EXCEPT WITH PROVISION'S PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT.

Client grants to Provision and its affiliates a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use and incorporate into the Compliance Store, any suggestion, enhancement request, recommendation, correction or other feedback provided by Client or Permitted Users relating to the Digital Templates, the operation of Compliance Store or any of Provision’s affiliates’ services (“Feedback”). Nothing in this Agreement will restrict Provision’s right to use, profit from, disclose, publish or otherwise exploit any Feedback, without compensation to the Client or Permitted Users and without any obligation to the Client or any Permitted User. Provision is not obligated to use any Feedback.

    4. Reservation of Rights. All rights not expressly granted by Provision to Client under this Agreement are reserved.

    5.

    6. Third Party Links. The Compliance Store may include links to other sites on the Internet that are owned and operated by third parties and therefore not affiliated with Provision. Please understand that such linked websites are independent from Provision, and Provision has no control over the content of such websites. Consequently, Provision cannot be held liable for and makes no warranty or representation whatsoever as to the accuracy, timeliness and/or completeness of the information contained on such websites. Such websites may be governed by terms and conditions different from those applicable to Compliance Store, and Provision encourages you to review the terms and privacy policies of those third parties before using their websites. The links which Provision might place on the Compliance Store do not imply that Provision sponsors, endorses or is affiliated or associated with, or has been legally authorized to use any trade-mark, trade name, service mark, design, logo, symbol or other copyrighted materials displayed on or accessible through such sites.

    7. Digital Templates.Client understands that the Digital Templates provided through the Compliance Store are created and maintained by the Template Providers. Any use by Client of such Digital Templates, and any exchange of data between Client and any Template Provider is solely between Client and the applicable Template Provider. Provision does not warrant or support Digital Templates, and cannot guarantee their accuracy or appropriateness for the Client. Provision further cannot guarantee the continued availability or accuracy of the Digital Templates, and may cease providing them without entitling Client to any refund, credit, or other compensation, if for example and without limitation, the Template Provider ceases to make the Digital Templates available through the Compliance Store.

    8. Customization of Digital Templates. In the event Client makes any Modifications to a Digital Template, Client acknowledges and agrees that:

      1. Such Modified Digital Templates may only be used in connection with the Compliance Store and the Digital Platform;

      2. Modified Digital Templates will not be updated or monitored by Provision or the Template Provider at their discretion;

      3. Modified Digital Templates are used at Client's own risk, with no guarantees, warranties, or support from Provision or the Template Provider; and

      4. All content used by Client in association with the Modified Digital Template will comply with all applicable laws.

    9. Provision will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide Client 30 days' notice in advance of any update of a Digital Template upon which Client has based a Modified Digital Template. Client acknowledges that any update to a Digital Template upon which a Modified Digital Template is based may result in the loss of all Modifications made by Client. Provision may provide Client with the ability to selectively accept or decline changes to the base Digital Template on itemized basis at its discretion. All instructions by Client to decline updates to Modified Digital Templates must be provided in advance of the update.

  4. Privacy

    Provision's collection, use, storage, process, disclosure and deletion of information about an identifiable individual ("Personal Information") provided by Client under this Agreement is governed by applicable privacy and data protection laws.

  5. Fees and Payment
    1. Fees. Client will pay to Provision the fees described in a Subscription Form (“Fees”). Unless otherwise noted on a Subscription Form: (i) all Fees are identified in U.S. dollars; (ii) Fees are non-cancelable and non-refundable; and (iii) quantities purchased cannot be decreased during the relevant subscription term. If Client’s use of the Compliance Store exceeds the service capacity set forth on a Subscription Form or otherwise requires the payment of additional fees pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Client will be billed for such usage and Client will pay the additional fees in accordance with this Agreement.

    2. Changes to the Fees. Provision reserves the right to change the Fees and institute new charges on each anniversary of the Term upon providing not less than 30 days prior notice to Client.

    3. Invoicing. Provision will prepare and send to the Client, at the then-current contact information on file with Provision and in association with Client's subscription to the Provision Platform, an invoice for any Fees that have become due and payable. Unless otherwise expressly stipulated in an invoice, all Fees are due upon receipt.

    4. Disputed Invoices or Charges. If the Client believes Provision has charged or invoiced the Client incorrectly, the Client must contact Provision no later than 30 days after having been charged by Provision or receiving such invoice in which the error or problem appeared in order to request an adjustment or credit. In the event of a dispute, the Client will pay any undisputed amounts in accordance with the payment terms, and the Parties will discuss the disputed amounts in good faith in order to resolve the dispute.

    5. Late Payment. The Client may not withhold or setoff any amounts due under this Agreement or its subscription to the Provision Platform. Provision reserves the right to suspend the Client’s access to the Provision Platform, and any Digital Templates until all due and undisputed amounts are paid in full. Any late payment will be increased by the costs of collection (if any) and will incur interest at the rate of one and a half percent (1.5%) compounded monthly (19.56% annually), or the maximum legal rate (if less), plus all expenses of collection, until fully paid. Without limiting Provision other rights, Provision may suspend Client’s access to or its performance of the Compliance Store, if Client has not paid the applicable Fees within 10 days of the date that such Fees become due.

    6. Taxes. The Fees set out in this Agreement do not include applicable sales, use, gross receipts, value-added, excise, personal property or other taxes. Client will be responsible for and pay all applicable taxes, duties, tariffs, assessments, export and import fees or similar charges (including interest and penalties imposed thereon) on the transactions contemplated in connection with this Agreement other than taxes based on the net income or profits of Provision.

    7. Suspension. Any suspension of the Compliance Store by Provision pursuant to the terms of this Agreement will not excuse Client from its obligation to make payments under this Agreement.
