General Terms And Conditions For Long Range Solutions, LLC (FOR PURCHASERS)

These General Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) govern all persons (“Purchasers”) that purchase or license, directly or indirectly, equipment, software, firmware, and/or services (collectively “Deliverables”) from Long Range Solutions, LLC (“LRS”).

Limited Software Use License. All software and firmware (collectively “Software”) is licensed (the “License”) for use only by Purchaser and other expressly authorized or permitted users, including customers of Purchasers. Neither the Software, nor any interest therein, is intended to be sold or conveyed by this License.

Application Programming Interface (API). In addition or incident to the sale or license of certain Deliverables, LRS may license Purchasers to access or use LRS’ APIs. All APIs and the routines, protocols and tools comprising the APIs are the exclusive property and right of LRS. Only expressly authorized licensees of a LRS API may access or use such API. Use and other rights concerning APIs are subject to these Terms and LRS’ Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms in full by reference, and such other specific terms and conditions as LRS may implement on a case by case basis. For purposes of these Terms, APIs are included in the definition of “Software” hereunder and a license to use an API is included in the definition of “License” hereunder.

Usage Restriction. Paging technology and other technology built into the Deliverables may at times not work due to interference with signal transmission beyond LRS’ control. Purchaser therefore agrees not to use any Deliverable for an application in which a signal or connection failure might cause harm to a person, injury to a property, or a business loss. Purchaser also agrees to abide by and strictly adhere to any rules, regulations and guidelines related to the use of any portion of any Deliverable to collect, store or transmit personal data (as defined by Article 4, General Data Protection Regulation) or personally-identifiable information (as defined by relevant federal and state statutes), including without limitation any “protected health information” (as defined by HIPAA), or billing or financial payment data, from any customer, consumer or user (collectively, “Personal Data”).

Data Collection. In connection with the Deliverables, data provided by Purchaser and its customers may be collected in connection with surveys, consultations, and uses of the Deliverables, including email addresses, telephone numbers, locations of users (which may utilize geo-location technology), times of usage, times of paging, times of responses to paging, devices used, configuration preferences, cookies, and social network information. In order to provide LRS’s customers with enhanced comparative benchmarking services with respect to customer industries, among other services, Purchaser hereby grants to LRS a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable license to use and distribute this data and results obtained through Purchaser’s use of the Deliverables for any and all purposes; provided that LRS shall not identify any Purchaser, or distribute to third parties any Personal Data or “protected health information” (as defined by HIPAA) or billing or financial payment data of any customer or consumer of Purchaser, without the express prior consent of such Purchaser. Purchaser warrants that Purchaser has the right to disclose, transfer or otherwise make available any Protected Health Information (as defined in 45 C.F.R. § 160.103) or other Personal Data that is made available to LRS by Purchaser or by Purchaser’s customers in connection with the Software or other Deliverables. Without limiting the foregoing, Purchaser shall obtain all authorizations, consents or other permissions from Purchaser’s customers (or the customer’s authorized personal representative) for the disclosure of customers’ Personal Data to LRS that are required by international, federal, state or local law, including, without limitation, the administrative simplification section of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and its implementing regulations and the European Union General Data Protection Regulation.

Limited Warranty. Unless expressly agreed to in a separate written instrument, LRS warrants to only Purchaser that the Deliverables will perform in accordance with specifications for them that LRS has published prior to their delivery for a period of time as specified in the purchase agreement or purchase order relating to such Deliverables. This limited warranty shall be voided if any Deliverable is modified or serviced by someone other than LRS or where the defective or non-performance is caused to any extent by accident, misuse, abuse, neglect, fire, water, acts of nature, power surges, improper maintenance, usage not in accordance with instructions or specifications, or usage or storage in unsuitable physical or operating environments.

Limitation of Remedies. In the event of any breach of any express warranty made herein, LRS may, at its option, either repair or replace any defective Deliverable or refund the money that Purchaser paid for it. LRS’s total liability for any defect in any Deliverable or for any other breach of any of its duties and obligations to Purchaser shall be limited to the amount of money that was paid for the defective Deliverable or the other duty or obligation. LRS will in no event be liable for any lost profit or any other type of consequential or special damage.

Confidentiality. The Deliverables and all computer systems that deliver any portion of them contain confidential trade secret information. Purchaser shall not attempt to reverse engineer any portion of the Deliverables or such computer systems, such as to disassemble any portion of hardware or decompile any portion of the Software, nor aid or permit anyone else in doing so. Any access by Purchaser not in compliance with these Terms shall be considered “access without authorization” for purposes of applying the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1030 and similar state or local laws.
