Terms and Conditions

Thank you for your interest in Prospct. These terms and conditions (collectively, “Terms”) along with the chosen plan and/or document incorporating such Terms (“Plan”) shall govern the relationship, and constitute a legally binding agreement, between Prospct Solutions. (“Prospct”, “the Company”, “we” or “us”) and your company (“Customer”) (collectively referred to as the “parties”).  By accessing, using, downloading, or installing the Platform Customer acknowledges that Customer has read, will be bound by and will comply with these Terms and the Privacy Notice (which is incorporated herein by reference), both as may be amended at the sole discretion of Prospct.

Additional terms and restrictions (“Supplementary Terms”), available here, may be applicable to some of the features available on the Platform (each being a “Feature”). Customer agrees to the applicable Supplementary Terms at the time they choose to add or use the corresponding Feature. Unless expressly stated otherwise, these Terms apply to the use of Features. Please read the Terms and the details of the Plan carefully before installing or using the Platform and any applicable Supplementary Terms (referred to collectively as the “Terms”) frequently to remain informed of any changes to them.


Platform and Purpose

  1. Subject to the Terms, Prospct agrees to license access to its proprietary online platform (“Platform”) to the Customer, which Platform enables Customer to utilize Prospct’s service(s) (as set out in the relevant Plan) to gain access to business intelligence and insights relating to businesses and business professionals (each such individual, a “Business Contact”), compiled from multiple sources (collectively, the “Data”) retained in Prospct’s B2B database (“Database”), accessible on a ‘Platform as a Service’ basis, including through the use of an API, integrated application, browser extension, downloadable software or Prospct’s website (www.Prospct.com (“Site”)) and any feature, functionality, data, and content therein.
  2. Customer wishes to use and access the Platform and obtain Data for Customer’s internal business uses and operations for one or more of the following objectives: B2B sales/marketing to prospective and current customers, recruitment, business intelligence or fraud prevention purposes) (“Purpose”). Therefore, the parties agree as follows.


Eligibility

  1. End Users:
    1. As used in these Terms, an “End User” means an individual user designated by Customer as a user of the Platform (up to the number of End Users provided for in the applicable Plan). Customer is solely responsible for granting End Users access to the Platform, including adding and removing access rights of End Users. Customer shall be responsible for compliance with these Terms by all End Users.
    2. If you are using Prospct as a member of an organization or using your organization’s email domain (thereby representing yourself as a member of the organization) (“You”), You represent, warrant, and covenant that You are authorized to enter this agreement on behalf of such business organization, notwithstanding whether You or Your company make payment of the Fees, and such business organization shall be a party to and bound by the terms hereof, and will thereby be the Customer, and that Prospct may share Your email address and plan information with an authorized agent of the company upon request in order for them to administer the account for the company. For the avoidance of doubt, use of the Platform is not permitted for  anyone under the age of 18. To the extent that You or Your employer have entered into another written agreement with Prospct, in respect of Your account, that contains terms that directly conflict with any terms of these Terms, then the conflicted terms set forth in such other agreement will control.
    3. If Customer designates additional persons as End Users beyond the number subscribed for in the applicable Plan, such designation may be deemed by Prospct as Customer’s subscription to such additional number of End Users. In the event of such, Prospct may charge Customer a corresponding additional Fee equal to the prevailing per-End User rate multiplied by the period from the date of designation until the end of the then-current Term.
  2. Account:
    1. Each End User will gain access to the Platform by creating an account and providing a unique username and password (“Login Credentials”). To obtain Login Credentials, Customer acknowledges that End Users must provide Prospct with certain identifying information (including names and business email addresses), which information must be accurate and complete. Customer also agrees to inform us immediately of any unauthorized use of Customer’s or any End Users’ account or any change in anny Login Credentials. By accepting the Terms, Customer declares that it is responsible for all activities taken under its account.
    2. Such Login Credentials may not be shared, must be kept secret and secure, and may not under any circumstances be used by anyone who is not an End User. An End User is not permitted to re-assign, transfer, or sublicense their account to any third party. If any End User’s Login Credentials are disclosed to any person who is not an End User but who is an employee of Customer, this disclosure will constitute Customer’s subscription as of the time of such disclosure to the number of additional End Users equal to the number of persons to whom such credentials were disclosed. Prospct will not be liable for any damages or losses caused by someone using Customer’s account without permission.
    3. Once Customer creates an account, each End User, will automatically join our mailing list. Each End User can choose to remove their email addresses from that mailing list by choosing the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of any email communication Prospct sends.
    4. If the employment of any End User that was in effect as of the date such person was designated as an End User terminates, such person’s authorization to access the Platform shall be revoked automatically without any further action by Prospct. Customer may either elect to transfer the End User license to a different user and corresponding email address with the domain held by the Customer, or terminate the End User’s account. Please note that there will be no refunds in the event of the aforementioned.
  3. Any individual who accesses the Platform under these Terms must be provisioned as an End User. As used in these Terms, “Credit” means a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, worldwide, revocable and limited right to access one (1) Business Contact throughout the Term. For the avoidance of doubt, Credits purchased by Customer and not used by the end of the applicable Term shall expire at the end of such Term and not roll over to any renewal term. Any additional Credits may be purchased on an ad hoc basis for an additional fee. The content of any particular Business Contact (including the available data points or the accuracy of any particular data point) is provided on an as-is basis, and once a Credit is used, the use cannot be revoked, and no replacement Credits or refunds will be provided based on the amount or quality of a particular record.


Software as a Platform

  1. Subject to these Terms, Prospct grants to Customer a non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, worldwide, revocable and limited right throughout the applicable subscription period (“Term”) to use the Platform for the Purpose to such number of End Users and limited to such number of Credits (as defined below) by which the Customer can receive Data through the use of the Platform.
  2. Following termination of these Terms subject to the restrictions outlined in these Terms, Customer may only continue to use Data that was legally obtained from Prospct under these Terms and that was stored on Customer’s systems during the Term.
  3. The Platform is provided subject to certain usage limits outlined in the Supplementary Terms and Acceptable Use Policy incorporated therein.


Support. 

  1. Prospct guarantees that the Platform will be available at least 99% of the time on a weekly basis (“Platform Availability”). Platform Availability excludes planned outages for system maintenance, which are, to the extent possible, performed outside of usual business hours (GMT) or on Saturdays or Sundays (“Planned Outages”) and excludes unavailability caused by factors outside of Prospct’s reasonable control, such as unpredictable and unforeseeable events that could not have been avoided even if reasonable care had been exercised. Aside from emergencies, Planned Outages will generally be performed in a way that minimizes impact to the Platform as a whole and will be resolved within 12 hours. In the event that system availability falls below the Platform Availability, Customer may provide written notice to Prospct, and if availability again falls below the Platform Availability within 3 months of such notice, Customer may terminate these Terms upon written notice to Prospct and shall be entitled to a prorated refund of the total prepaid fees for any complete months remaining of the applicable Term, as at the date of such termination.
  2. Prospct has created different tools to help users address frequently asked questions and additional technical and general support issues. In addition, Prospct tests frequent updates, maintenance, error shooting and additional means in order to improve the Platform. Prospct does not undertake to keep operating any of the above, and reserves the right to change, reduce, limit or terminate its maintenance and support efforts.
  3. Prospct may access, collect, and use any information from or relating to Customer and Customer’s use of the Platform (“Related Information”) for customer and technical support, for regulatory and third-party compliance purposes, to protect and enforce Prospct’s rights, to monitor compliance with and investigate potential breaches of these Terms, and to recommend additional products or services. Prospct may share this information with its partners or affiliates for the same purposes. Customer grants Prospct and Prospct affiliates the perpetual right to use Related Information and any feedback provided by Customer for purposes such as to test, develop, improve, and enhance Prospct’s products and services, and to create and own derivative works based on Related Information and feedback, so long as neither Customer, any End User nor any other individual is identifiable as the source of such information.


Changes to the Terms

  1. We reserve the right to modify, change to, suspend or discontinue, temporarily or permanently the Platform or any Features (the “Changes”) with or without notice with no liability, at any time and for any reason, including without limitation any Changes which may be done automatically for the purpose of improving, enhancing or de-bugging versions of the Platform or other aspects thereof. We will notify Customer of any adverse material changes via the Site or Platform (including without limitation by sending an email notification or by way of on-screen pop-ups) by any other form prior to those Changes becoming effective. Otherwise, any other, non-material change, will be effective upon the “last updated” date stated at the top of these Terms.
  2. Customer’s continued use of the Platform, following any such Changes, constitutes complete and irrevocable acceptance of such Changes and the revised Terms. If Customer does not agree with the new/modified Terms, Customer’s sole remedy is to discontinue using the Platform. For the avoidance of doubt, the then-current version of these Terms will supersede all earlier versions.


Intellectual Property Rights

  1. As between Prospct and Customer, all intellectual property rights in the Data, the Database, the Platform, and any part thereof, and any and all derivatives, changes, and improvements thereof lie exclusively with Prospct.

  4. If Prospct informs Customer that a data subject has made a request that their Personal Data be removed from Prospct’s Platform, Customer shall remove such data from their possession without undue delay, unless the Customer has another valid legal basis under applicable law to process such data. Customer confirms that it will at all times maintain an active End User of ‘administrator’ status (the “Admin”) whose responsibility it will be to ensure compliance with the aforementioned requirement.


Privacy and Artificial Intelligence.

  1. Each party will process Personal Data in accordance with the data processing addendum which is available at: https://www.Prospct.com/legal/dpa/  (the “DPA”) (“Personal Data” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in Regulation (EU) 2016/679).  In the event of any conflict between the DPA and these Terms, as relates to the subject matter of the DPA, the DPA will supersede.

Customer appoints Prospct to perform any such transfer of Customer Data to any such country and to store and process Customer Data in order to provide the Platform or by Customer’s documented instructions. Any such transfer shall be effected by way of a legally enforceable safeguarding mechanism that is permitted under the DPA, including but not limited to the Standard Contractual Clauses.
  3. Prospct may make certain features available, including artificial intelligence (“AI”), machine learning, or similar functionality (“AI Features”). These features may include technology developed by Prospct or a third-party provider.
  4. Prospct acknowledges that Customer Data provided by the Customer via its account’s integrations and enrich services is confidential. Prospct is committed to safeguarding Customer Data and respecting its users’ privacy. Therefore, Prospct confirms that it will not use Customer Data to train public AI. Notwithstanding, AI Features may be trained in Prospct’s local and offline environment for product and research development purposes, mainly with regard to Customers’ metadata. For example, AI Features may analyze what certain companies (in the same size and industry as the Customer) are searching for in Prospct’s Platform and recommend to other Customers how to get better enrichment results based on such searches.


Confidentiality

  1. Each party (each a “receiving party”) may have access to certain non-public proprietary, confidential information or data of the other party (each a “disclosing party”), regardless of how it is furnished, which a reasonable person or entity should reasonably believe is proprietary, confidential, or competitively sensitive (together, the “Confidential Information“). The fact that the parties entered into these Terms, and the contents of these Terms, shall be deemed Confidential Information.
  2. Confidential Information shall exclude any information that (i) is now or subsequently becomes generally available in the public domain through no fault or breach on the part of receiving party; (ii) the receiving party can demonstrate in its records to have had rightfully in its possession before disclosure of the Confidential Information by the disclosing party; (iii) receiving party rightfully obtains from a third party who has the right to transfer or disclose it, without default or breach of these Terms; or (iv) the receiving party can demonstrate in its records to have independently developed, without breach of these Terms or any use of or reference to the Confidential Information.
  3. The receiving party agrees:
    1. not to disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information to any third parties other than to its directors, officers, employees, advisors, or consultants (collectively, the “Representatives”) on a strict “need to know” basis provided that such Representatives are bound by written agreements to comply with confidentiality obligations as protective as those herein;
    2. inform the disclosing party immediately on becoming aware or suspecting that an unauthorized party has become aware of or gained access to the Confidential Information;
    3. not to use or reproduce, or knowingly allow anyone else to reproduce, directly or indirectly, any of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information for any purposes except to carry out its rights and responsibilities under these Terms, unless otherwise provided for in these Terms; and
    4. to keep the disclosing party’s Confidential Information confidential using at least the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information, which shall in any event not be less than a reasonable degree of care.
  4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the receiving party is required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation, to disclose the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, then before such disclosure, the receiving party will give written notice (to the extent permissible by applicable law) to the disclosing party so that it may seek appropriate relief and will disclose Confidential Information to the minimum extent required.
  5. The Customer shall not ridicule, defame, mock, disparage, stalk, intimidate, threaten, harass, harm, advocate, incite harassment, or abuse another person, group, Prospct employees, including Prospct’s customer service representatives, hatefully, racially, religiously, ethnically or in any other manner.
  6. Customer acknowledges that the Data obtained using Credits are for its own use only and that the disclosure to a third party of Business Contacts, permitting a third party to access any Business Contact records through use of Login Credentials or the use of the Business Contacts for the benefit of or on behalf of any third party (“Covered Breach”), will cause damage to Prospct in an amount that is difficult to quantify. In order to avoid the time and expense of quantifying the direct damages caused by a Covered Breach, if Customer, negligently or intentionally, commits a Covered Breach, then Prospct shall be entitled to liquidated damages from Customer in the amount equal to $2.00 per Business Contact record that is so disclosed, used, or made available per third party recipient or beneficiary, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, such liquidated damages are cumulative with any other damages that may be caused by such Covered Breach.
