Terms & Conditions

Services & Statements of Work

The Services to be covered under this Agreement are set forth in one or more purchase orders, other ordering documents, and statements of work, together with any exhibits thereto (each a "SOW"), which reference this Agreement, the terms and conditions of which are incorporated into and made a part of any such SOW. In the event Client chooses to order products or Services from Gizmo Wizards LLC or any of its Affiliates ("Service Provider") utilizing the Internet or Service Provider’s website, the terms and conditions contained therein shall apply to any such products or Services ordered. The cost, installation and functioning of all products not provided by Service Provider in rendering Services hereunder, including, without limitation, electric power, electrical wiring, cabling, telephone equipment, computers, modems, printers, tables, etc. shall be Client’s sole responsibility.

Pricing & Terms of Payment

(a) The price for Services to be provided will be set forth in a SOW. Service Provider may, after the initial term of a SOW, increase charges for Services by giving the Client thirty (30) days written notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Service Provider reserves the right to change the price of Services at any time and in its sole reasonable discretion where factors (i) involving Client’s systems or operating environments or lack thereof, or (ii) outside of Service Provider’s reasonable control increase the cost to Service Provider.

(b) All terms are net 30 days, unless otherwise specified in a SOW, contingent upon Client qualifying for credit with Service Provider. Should Client not qualify for sufficient credit with Service Provider, payment must be made via other acceptable form such as credit card or prepayment. Failure to pay within specified terms may at the option of Service Provider result in the suspension of the contract, imposition of interest charges at the rate of a 1.5% per month or the highest allowed by law, whichever is lower, and may result in the termination of the contract by Service Provider upon written notice.

(c) The SOW shall specify whether the contract is based on a fixed price or hourly rate. All reasonable travel, lodging, car rentals, and meal expenses will be billed to the Client unless otherwise specified in SOW.

(d) Any sales and use taxes shall be added to the invoice. In the event Client claims exemption from sales and use taxes, Client must provide Service Provider with the appropriate tax exemption certificate from the taxing authority.

Fees & Taxes

Client, at its expense, shall pay, discharge, and be responsible for, all licensee fees, business, sales, use, or other similar taxes or assessments charged or levied by reason of anything performed under this Agreement, excluding, however, all taxes and assessments applicable to Service Provider’s income or applicable to Service Provider’s property. If Service Provider is required to remit any fee, tax, or duty on behalf of or for the account of Client, Client will reimburse Service Provider within ten (10) days after Service Provider notifies Client in writing of such remittance.

Proprietary Rights

Except for any deliverables as set forth in a SOW, Service Provider does not convey or transfer nor does Client obtain any right or interest in any of the software programs, systems, tools, data or materials or process utilized or provided by Service Provider in connection with the performance of this Agreement

In the event Service Provider holds, stores, or provides storage Services for any of Client’s property, including but not limited to any computer hardware or products, Client is required to maintain insurance on such property at its own expense and shall provide Service Provider with a certificate of insurance naming Service Provider as an additional insured. In case of loss, Client's insurance shall be primary and Service Provider’s coverage, if any, shall be non-contributory. Unless otherwise provided by a SOW, Service Provider has no liability for Client’s property stored at Service Provider’s premises. Any Client property abandoned at our premises without communication can be liquidated or disposed of and may become property of Service Provider after 90 days after our final notice to pay is recieved by certified mail.

Limited Warranty

(a) Computer & Technical Services. Service Provider shall provide computer and/or other technical Services in a good workmanlike and professional manner consistent with current industry standards, and such Services shall for a period of ninty (90) days following completion (the “warranty period”) conform to the specifications in the Scope of Work. The foregoing limited warranty is contingent upon Client fulfilling the Client responsibilities set forth above and any other conditions that may be specified in the applicable SOW. All product and Service completion schedules provided by Service Provider are estimates and are provided for planning purposes only.

In the event Client finds any Services provided hereunder to be defective or nonconforming during the warranty period, subject to the limitations set forth above, Service Provider shall promptly correct such Services to the reasonable satisfaction of Client in accordance with the specifications set forth in the SOW. In the event such corrected Services fail to comply with the specifications set forth in the SOW, then at Client’s option, Service Provider shall again promptly correct such Services or shall reimburse to Client the payments made to Service Provider for such Services.

Right of Termination

If Service Provider is unable to furnish any parts or acquire technical data required to repair and/or Service any item of computer hardware products, then Service Provider may cancel coverage for that item under the applicable SOW and Service Provider will refund payment for the remaining days of coverage under the applicable SOW, on a pro rata basis.

If, during the course of a SOW or after its completion, items of computer products experience an excessive failure rate due to age, discontinuance of spare parts availability from the manufacturer or other causes beyond Service Provider's control, Client agrees to replace or refurbish said equipment at no charge to Service Provider. If Client fails to do so, Service Provider may, at its option, exclude such item from coverage by giving the Client thirty (30) days written notice.

(b) Mutual Rights of Termination:

Either party may terminate a SOW at any time if the other party breaches any material provision of the SOW or this Agreement and fails within fourteen (14) days after receipt of notice of default to correct such default promptly or to commence corrective action reasonably acceptable to the aggrieved party and proceed with diligence to completion.

After the initial term of a SOW, unless dates are otherwise designated for specific Services set forth therein, either Party thereto shall have the right to terminate the SOW without cause, without penalty, and without liability for any damages as a result of such termination, by giving the other Party at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such termination. If either Party properly terminates a SOW, Service Provider will provide a pro rata refund for any advance payment for the remaining days of coverage under the SOW. Any funds so owed by Service Provider will be refunded in full within sixty (60) days after receiving written notice of contract termination. Notwithstanding any termination of a SOW, Client shall be obligated to pay Service Provider for (i) all products and Services provided by Service Provider in accordance with the SOW at any time on or prior to the effective date of termination; (ii) any products, subscriptions, services, or licenses procured by Service Provider for Client and which cannot be returned to the third-party from which it was procured; and (iii) all incidental costs and expenses incurred by Service Provider in accordance with this Agreement or a SOW at any time on or prior to the effective date of termination.

Nondisclosure

With respect to the confidentiality of certain non-public, confidential or proprietary information (the “Confidential Material”) to be shared between the parties in order to perform the SOW (the “Permitted Purpose”) and in consideration of the parties furnishing Confidential Material to each other, the parties agree as follows:

(a) Each party (a “disclosing party”) may from time to time disclose certain Confidential Material to the other party (a “receiving party”). Each disclosing party shall retain all rights to its Confidential Material. Each receiving party agrees to take such measures to prevent the unauthorized disclosure to third parties of Confidential Material, as it would take to prevent disclosure of its own proprietary or confidential information but in no event less than reasonable measures. To the extent practicable, information protected by this Agreement shall be marked "Confidential". Information exchanged prior to the date of this Agreement shall be considered Confidential Material.

(b) The receiving party shall keep the Confidential Material confidential and shall not, without the prior written consent of the disclosing party, use or disclose the Confidential Material for any purpose other than the Permitted Purpose; provided, however, that the receiving party may disclose the Confidential Material to its officers, directors, employees and representatives (each, a “Permitted Recipient”) who have a reasonable need to know the information for the purpose of assisting the receiving party with its evaluation and performance of the Permitted Purpose and who shall be caused by the receiving party to abide by the confidentiality and use restrictions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the receiving party shall not be precluded from disclosing the Confidential Material where required by law, provided that, to the extent practicable and legally permissible, it provides the disclosing party reasonable prior notice of such request in order to permit the disclosing party an opportunity to take reasonable steps to protect and limit the scope of disclosure. Except as necessary to the Permitted Purpose, Confidential Material obtained pursuant to this Agreement may not be duplicated, and all Confidential Material exchanged pursuant to this Agreement must be destroyed or returned to the originating party upon request.

(c) Confidential Material may not be used by the receiving party except as expressly permitted herein; no grant of license to use Confidential Material is given by this Agreement.

(d) Confidential Material shall not include the following: information obtained by receiving party that (i) is or becomes generally known or available to the public through no breach by receiving party, (ii) is lawfully known to it at the time of receipt from the disclosing party, (iii) is subsequently furnished to it lawfully by a third party without restriction, or (iv) is independently developed by receiving party without the use of disclosing party’s Confidential Material.

(e) Confidential Material is provided “AS IS” and no warranties or representations are given, and receiving party shall rely on such information at its own risk. The exchange of Confidential Material shall not obligate either party to enter into a business or other relationship.

(f) Service Provider may from time to time disclose information to the PCI Security Standards Council or a Qualified Security Assessor in order to remain in compliance with the credit card security standards. Such disclosure shall be permitted under this Section.

(g) The parties acknowledge that unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Material may cause irreparable damage to the disclosing party for which monetary damages may not be adequate relief. Therefore, in addition to any other remedies it may have, the disclosing party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief against actual or threatened unauthorized disclosure or use of Confidential Material.

(h) Confidential Material shall be protected hereunder for a period of five (5) years following the termination of this Agreement; provided that all trade secret information shall remain protected subject to the use and confidentiality restrictions set forth herein for as long as such information remains trade secret under applicable law.

Non-Solicitation of Personnel

Client shall not solicit for employment, directly or indirectly, the officers, employees, subcontractors or agents (“Personnel”) of Service Provider who have performed duties in support of this Agreement during the term hereof and until eighteen (18) months after the earlier of: (a) the termination of such Personnel’s engagement; and (b) the termination of all SOWs entered under this Agreement, unless explicitly agreed to in writing by the parties. No offer or other form of solicitation of employment will be made at any time when the employment of such Personnel is prohibited by this Agreement. Should Client solicit any Personnel for employment in violation of this Section, and should that employee subsequently become an employee of the Client, the Client agrees to reimburse Service Provider an amount equal to the salary and commissions, if any, earned by the employee during the last twelve (12) months while employed by Service Provider. Both parties agree that this amount represents reasonable compensation to Service Provider for its cost of recruiting and training, and does not constitute a penalty. Such amount will be due and payable by the Client within ten (10) days of receipt of written demand from Service Provider. Nothing herein shall prevent an employee of Service Provider from responding to an employment advertisement or announcement of general circulation made by Client; provided that such advertisement or announcement is not directed at Service Provider’s employees. The intention of this Section is to prohibit the active recruitment of Personnel.

Binding Agreement and Assignments

This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement is not transferable or assignable without the prior written consent of the other party provided, however, that such consent shall not be required in the event of an assignment made to an affiliate of either party or to a successor or purchaser in a merger, acquisition or sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the business, assets or equity of either party, provided that the successor/assignee is not deemed to be a competitor of non-assigning party.

Waiver

No waiver of any provision or breach shall be implied by failure to enforce any rights or remedies herein provided, and no express waiver shall affect any provision or breach other than that to which the waiver is applicable and only for that occurrence.

Subcontracting

Service Provider may subcontract for Services provided to Client. Such subcontracting will not release Service Provider from any of its obligations in this Agreement.

This Agreement shall not be supplemented, modified or amended except by a written instrument signed by duly authorized representatives of Client and Service Provider, respectively, and no other person has or shall have the authority to supplement, modify or amend this Agreement in another manner; provided that Service Provider reserves the right to make any corrections or adjustments in prices, fees, taxes, or other charges or quantities quoted due to errors, market fluctuation, supply chain disruption tariffs, third party supplier changes in cost, or other factors outside of Service Provider’s control. Service Provider will notify Client promptly of such corrections or adjustments. Service Provider reserves the right to cancel or refuse any SOW based on incorrect pricing or availability.
