Decoder AI, Inc.

PLEASE READ THESE ENTERPRISE TERMS (“TERMS”) CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE SERVICES OFFERED BY DECODER AI, INC. (“DECODER”). BY MUTUALLY EXECUTING ONE OR MORE ORDER FORMS WITH DECODER WHICH REFERENCE THESE TERMS (EACH, AN “ORDER FORM”), YOU (“CUSTOMER”) AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS (TOGETHER WITH ALL ORDER FORMS, THE “AGREEMENT”) TO THE EXCLUSION OF ALL OTHER TERMS. IN ADDITION, ANY ONLINE ORDER FORM WHICH YOU SUBMIT VIA DECODER’S STANDARD ONLINE PROCESS AND WHICH IS ACCEPTED BY DECODER SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MUTUALLY EXECUTED. IF YOU ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF AN ENTITY, THEN YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE AUTHORIZED TO BIND SUCH ENTITY TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IF THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT ARE CONSIDERED AN OFFER, ACCEPTANCE IS EXPRESSLY LIMITED TO SUCH TERMS.

Order Forms; Access to the Service. Upon mutual execution, each Order Form shall be incorporated into and form a part of the Agreement. For each Order Form, subject to Customer’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including any limitations and restrictions set forth on the applicable Order Form) Decoder grants Customer a nonexclusive, limited, personal, nonsublicensable, nontransferable right and license to internally access and use the Decoder product(s) and/or service(s) specified in such Order Form (collectively, the “Service,” or “Services”) during the applicable Order Form Term (as defined below) for the internal business purposes of Customer, only as provided herein and only in accordance with Decoder’s applicable official user documentation for such Service (the “Documentation”). Customer (i) agrees to use the Service in compliance with all applicable local, state, national and foreign laws, treaties and regulations in connection with Customer’s use of the Service (including those related to data privacy, international communications, export laws and the transmission of technical or personal data laws), (ii) agrees to use the Service subject to any limitations set forth in the Order Form including without limitation the limits on the maximum number of permitted users and/or seats (“Seats”) for the use of the Services (“Usage Parameters”), and (iii) shall not use the Service in a manner that violates any third party intellectual property, contractual or other proprietary rights. If the Order Form states that the Services are made available for evaluation purposes or that Customer is given access to “Beta Features” of the Services (defined to include means any beta versions, beta features, and/or functionality of the Platform, which are clearly designated as beta, pilot, limited release, developer preview, non-production, evaluation, or by a similar description), (a) the Services or Beta Features provided under this evaluation license may be used for purposes of internal evaluation only and not for any productive use; and (b) CUSTOMER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE SERVICES AND SOFTWARE MAY INCLUDE FEATURES TO PREVENT USE AFTER THE APPLICABLE EVALUATION PERIOD SET FORTH ON THE ORDER FORM AND THAT UNLESS CUSTOMER PURCHASES A PAID SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION OF SUCH PERIOD, THIS AGREEMENT WILL TERMINATE AT THE CONCLUSION THEREOF.
Account Types. Decoder allows entities (“Enterprise Customers”) to create accounts to access the Services (an “Account”). “Customer” as used herein refers to Enterprise Customers, as applicable. Individual users of an Enterprise Customer’s Account will be provisioned with individual access to the Services.
Implementation. Upon payment of any applicable fees set forth in each Order Form, Decoder agrees to use reasonable commercial efforts to provide standard implementation assistance for the Service only if and to the extent such assistance is set forth on such Order Form (“Implementation Assistance”). If Decoder provides Implementation Assistance in excess of any agreed-upon hours estimate, or if Decoder otherwise provides additional services beyond those agreed in an Order Form, Customer will pay Decoder at its then-current hourly rates for consultation.
Support; Service Levels. Subject to Customer’s payment of all applicable fees, Decoder will provide support, maintenance, and uptime for each Service in accordance with Decoder’s then-current standard support and availability policies for the Service located at Support Policy.
Service Updates. From time to time, Decoder may provide upgrades, patches, enhancements, or fixes for the Services to its customers generally without additional charge (“Updates”), and such Updates will become part of the Services and subject to this Agreement; provided that Decoder shall have no obligation under this Agreement or otherwise to provide any such Updates. Customer understands that Decoder may make improvements and modifications to the Services at any time in its sole discretion; provided that Decoder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give Customer reasonable prior notice of any major changes.
Ownership; Feedback. As between the parties, Decoder retains all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, and all software, products, works, and other intellectual property and moral rights related thereto or created, used, or provided by Decoder for the purposes of this Agreement, including any copies and derivative works of the foregoing. Any software which is distributed or otherwise provided to Customer hereunder (including without limitation any software identified on an Order Form) shall be deemed a part of the “Services” and subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No rights or licenses are granted except as expressly and unambiguously set forth in this Agreement. Customer may (but is not obligated to) provide suggestions, comments or other feedback to Decoder with respect to the Service (“Feedback”). Decoder acknowledges and agrees that all Feedback is provided “AS IS” and without warranty of any kind. Notwithstanding anything else, Customer shall, and hereby does, grant to Decoder a nonexclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free, fully paid up license to use and exploit the Feedback for any purpose. Nothing in this Agreement will impair Decoder’s right to develop, acquire, license, market, promote or distribute products, software or technologies that perform the same or similar functions as, or otherwise compete with any products, software or technologies that Customer may develop, produce, market, or distribute.
Fees; Payment.
1. Customer shall pay Decoder fees as set forth in each Order Form (“Fees”). Unless otherwise specified herein or in an Order Form, all Fees shall be invoiced annually in advance and all invoices issued under this Agreement are payable in U.S. dollars within thirty (30) days from date of invoice.

Confidential Information. From time to time during the Term (as defined below), either party may disclose or make available to the other party nonpublic information about its business affairs, products, confidential intellectual property, trade secrets, third-party confidential information, and other sensitive or proprietary information (collectively, “Confidential Information”). For the avoidance of doubt, Decoder’s Confidential Information includes without limitation the Services and any product roadmap information, and Customer’s Confidential Information includes without limitation Customer Data. Confidential Information does not include information that, at the time of disclosure is: (a) generally available to the public; (b) known to the receiving party at the time of disclosure without restriction; (c) rightfully obtained by the receiving party on a non-confidential basis from a third party; or (d) independently developed by the receiving party without access to or use of the Confidential Information.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required (i) in order to comply with the order of a court or other governmental body, or as otherwise necessary to comply with applicable law, provided that the party making the disclosure pursuant to the order will first have given written notice to the other party and made a reasonable effort to obtain a protective order; or (ii) to establish a party’s rights under this Agreement, including to make required court filings. On the expiration or termination of the Agreement, the receiving party will promptly return to the disclosing party all copies, whether in written, electronic, or other form or media, of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, or destroy all such copies and certify in writing to the disclosing party that such Confidential Information has been destroyed. Each party’s obligations with regard to Confidential Information are effective as of the Effective Date and will expire five (5) years from the date such Confidential Information is first disclosed to the receiving party; provided, however, with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret (as determined under applicable law), such obligations will survive for as long as such Confidential Information remains subject to trade secret protection under applicable law.

1. If set forth on an Order Form, the Service will be provisioned on a hosting environment provided by Customer (the “Customer Environment”).
2. For purposes of this Agreement, “Customer Data” shall mean any data, Input (as defined below), information or other material provided, uploaded, or submitted by Customer to the Service in the course of using the Service.

3. Decoder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the security and integrity of the Service and the Customer Data. Notwithstanding anything else, if the Service is deployed in a Customer Environment, Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (a) Customer will provide Decoder with access to the Customer Environment to allow Decoder to install, configure, support and maintain the Service as provided hereunder, and Decoder shall not be responsible for any issues that arise from failure to provide such access; (b) Customer is responsible for ensuring that Decoder’s access to the Customer Environment as permitted hereunder does not conflict with or violate any agreement between Customer and any third party (including, without limitation, any third party hosting provider with respect to the Customer Environment; (c) Decoder does not host the Customer Environment into which the Services are deployed or in which Customer Data may be stored; and (d) Customer is solely responsible for the Customer Environment, including without limitation security, backup, and disaster recovery with respect thereto.

Customer is responsible for the use of the Service by any person to whom Customer has given access to the Service, even if Customer did not authorize such use. By using the Services, Individual Customers acknowledge and agree that such Customers are subject to the provisions in this Agreement as well as those in Decoder’s Privacy Policy (located at Privacy Policy). In the event and to the extent that an Enterprise Customer is a controller or processor of Personal Data (as defined in the DPA) that is subject to certain Data Protection Laws (as defined in the DPA), the Data Processing Addendum located at Data Processing Addendum (the “DPA”) is hereby included and incorporated into this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and provisions of the DPA, the provisions of the Agreement will control.

Customer is solely responsible for procuring any and all rights necessary for it to access Third Party Integrations (including any Customer Data or other information relating thereto) and for complying with any applicable terms or conditions thereof. Any exchange of data or other interaction between Customer and a third party provider is solely between Customer and such third party provider and is governed by such third party’s terms and conditions. Decoder cannot and does not guarantee that the Service shall incorporate (or continue to incorporate) any particular Third Party Integrations and does not make any representations or warranties with respect to Third Party Integrations.
Artificial Intelligence.
1. The Services leverage generative artificial intelligence services (the “AI Systems”) to create output (“Output”) based on textual prompts and other input from users (collectively, “Input”).

Company cannot control, and has no duty to take any action regarding how you may interpret, rely on or use any Output or what actions you may take as a result of having been exposed to Output, and you hereby release Company from all liability for your having acquired or not acquired Output through the Services.
2. The AI Systems may include Third-Party AI Systems. You acknowledge and agree that the Third-Party AI Systems comprise generative AI systems that are trained by a third party (and not by Company) on data from various sources (“Training Data”) and that may produce similar responses to similar prompts or queries, and therefore Company makes no representations or warranties regarding the Output based on Training Data, including any ownership thereof.
3. You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for all of your Inputs, and Company does not make any guarantees about the accuracy, timeliness, suitability, or quality of any Output, including whether such Output meets your individual requirements. Your use of the Output will be at your sole responsibility, and neither Company nor any Third-Party AI Systems provider will be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss whatsoever caused, or alleged to be caused, directly in connection with the use of the Inputs or the Outputs.

Customer is responsible for checking the Third Party Terms Site for updates. Any use by Customer of the Services following a change to the Third Party Terms shall constitute acceptance of such change. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, Decoder shall not, and shall not permit any Third Party Service to, use any Customer Data processed under this Agreement to train machine learning models. Decoder cannot and does not guarantee that the Service shall incorporate (or continue to incorporate) any particular Third Party Services, and does not make any representations or warranties with respect to Third Party Services or any third party providers.
Term; Termination. This Agreement shall commence upon the date of the first Order Form, and, unless earlier terminated in accordance herewith, shall last until the expiration of all Order Form Terms. For each Order Form, unless otherwise specified therein, the “Order Form Term” shall begin as of the effective date set forth on such Order Form, and unless earlier terminated as set forth herein, (x) shall continue for the initial term specified on such Order Form (the “Order Form Initial Term”), and (y) following the Order Form Initial Term, shall automatically renew for additional successive periods of equal duration to the Order Form Initial Term (each, a “Order Form Renewal Term”) unless either party notifies the other party of such party’s intention not to renew no later than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Order Form Initial Term or then-current Order Form Renewal Term, as applicable. In the event of a material breach of this Agreement by either party, the non-breaching party may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to the breaching party, provided that the breaching party does not materially cure such breach within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. Without limiting the foregoing, Decoder may suspend or limit Customer’s access to or use of the Service if (i) Customer’s account is more than sixty (60) days past due, or (ii) Customer’s use of the Service results in (or is reasonably likely to result in) damage to or material degradation of the Service which interferes with Decoder’s ability to provide access to the Service to other customers; provided that in the case of subsection (ii): (a) Decoder shall use reasonable good faith efforts to work with Customer to resolve or mitigate the damage or degradation in order to resolve the issue without resorting to suspension or limitation; (b) prior to any such suspension or limitation, Decoder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice to Customer describing the nature of the damage or degradation; and (c) Decoder shall reinstate Customer’s use of or access to the Service, as applicable, if Customer remediates the issue within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. All provisions of this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, accrued payment obligations, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability. For clarity, any services provided by Decoder to Customer, including any assistance in exporting the Customer Data, shall be billable at Decoder’s standard rates then in effect.
Indemnification. Each party (“Indemnitor”) shall defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the other party, its affiliates and each of their respective employees, contractors, directors, suppliers and representatives (collectively, the “Indemnitee”) from all losses, liabilities, and expenses paid or payable to an unaffiliated third party (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (“Losses”), that arise from or relate to any claim by such third party that (i) (a) the Customer Data or Customer’s use of the Service (in the case of Customer as Indemnitor), or (b) the Service (in the case of Decoder as Indemnitor), infringes, violates, or misappropriates any intellectual property or proprietary right of such third party; or (ii) Decoder has been grossly negligent or engaged in willful misconduct; provided that in each case the Indemnitee provides the Indemnitor with: (x) prompt written notice of any claim (provided that a failure to provide such notice shall only relieve the Indemnitor of its indemnity obligations if the Indemnitor is materially prejudiced by such failure); (y) the option to assume sole control over the defense and settlement of any claim (provided that the Indemnitee may participate in such defense and settlement at its own expense); and (z) reasonable information and assistance in connection with such defense and settlement (at the Indemnitor’s expense). The foregoing obligations of Decoder do not apply (A) with respect to the Service or any information, technology, materials or data (or any portions or components of the foregoing) to the extent (1) not created or provided by Decoder (including without limitation any Customer Data), (2) made in whole or in part in accordance to Customer specifications, (3) modified after delivery by Decoder, (4) combined with other products, processes or materials not provided by Decoder (where the alleged Losses arise from or relate to such combination), (B) where Customer continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or (C) to the extent Losses arise from Customer’s breach of this Agreement.

Notices must be sent to the contacts for each party set forth on the Order Form. Either party may update its address set forth above by giving notice in accordance with this section. Except as otherwise provided herein, any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived only by a writing executed by both parties.

If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable.
