Terms of Service

BEFORE USING THE THRIVE COMMERCE PROMOTIONS APPLICATION (AS DEFINED BELOW), PLEASE READ THESE END USER TERMS OF SERVICE (THESE “TERMS”).  THESE TERMS ARE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THE ORDER FORM EXECUTED BY THE COMPANY IDENTIFIED AS THE “CUSTOMER” IN THE ORDER FORM (“CUSTOMER”) AND THRIVE COMMERCE LLC (“THRIVE”). PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS, CUSTOMER SHALL RECEIVE THE RIGHT TO ACCESS AND USE THE PROMOTIONS APPLICATION.  THESE TERMS AND THE ORDER FORM TOGETHER FORM A BINDING AND EXECUTED WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN CUSTOMER AND THRIVE, EFFECTIVE AS OF THE FIRST DATE OF MUTUAL EXECUTION OF THE ORDER FORM.

1. The Promotions Application. Thrive will make the Promotions Application available to (a) Customer and (b) individuals who are authorized by Customer to use Promotions Application on behalf of the Customer and who have been supplied user identification and passwords by Customer (or by Thrive at Customer’s request), including employees, consultants, contractors, and agents of Customer (“Users”). Thrive hereby grants the Customer and its Users a limited, non-exclusive right to access the Promotions Application during the Subscription Term and in accordance with these Terms (including the specific access rights and limitations set forth in the Order Form) (the “Subscription”). Customer’s Subscription is not dependent on any future functionality or features (or any public comments or other disclosure made by Thrive with respect thereto).  “Promotions Application” means the online, website application provided by Thrive to host various shopper facing promotions products on Customer’s website and the use of an administrative system located at https://pm-prod.tcapi.io/offers. 

2. Subscription Term. Customer’s initial subscription term for the Promotions Application commences on the expected “Subscription Start Date” stated in the Order Form, or, if later or if none is provided in the Order Form, the day User login names and a password are issued to Customer to access the Promotions Application (the “Subscription Start Date”). The Subscription will continue for the “Subscription Term” specified in the Order Form (the “Subscription Term”) and may be renewed in accordance thereof. 

3. Confidentiality. As used herein, “Confidential Information” means all confidential information of a party (“Disclosing Party“) disclosed to the other party (“Receiving Party“) that is designated in writing as confidential or, by the nature of the information, should be designated as confidential, as well as the terms and conditions of these Terms. Confidential Information shall not include information which: (a) is known publicly; (b) is generally known in the industry before disclosure; (c) has become known publicly, without fault of the Receiving Party, subsequent to disclosure by the Disclosing Party; or (d) has been otherwise lawfully known or received by the Receiving Party. The Receiving Party shall not disclose or use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of these Terms, except with the Disclosing Party’s prior written permission. The Receiving Party agrees to keep confidential all Confidential Information disclosed to it by the Disclosing Party, and to protect the confidentiality thereof in the same manner as it protects the confidentiality of its own (at all times exercising at least a reasonable degree of care in the protection of Confidential Information). If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, it shall provide the Disclosing Party with prior notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at Disclosing Party’s cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. The Receiving Party agrees that monetary damages for breach of confidentiality hereunder may not be adequate and that, if necessary, the Disclosing Party shall be further entitled to injunctive relief. 

4. Fees and Taxes. The Customer shall pay to Thrive all of the fees specified in the Order Forms. Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, fees are due within 30 days from the invoice date. Any payment not received from the Customer by the due date shall accrue (except with respect to charges then under reasonable and good faith dispute), at the lower of 1.5% or the maximum rate permitted by law of the outstanding balance per month from the date such payment is due until the date paid. If any Customer account is 30 days or more overdue (except with respect to charges then under reasonable and good faith dispute), in addition to any other rights and remedies set forth in these Terms, Thrive reserves the right to suspend the Promotions Application without liability to Thrive, until such account is paid in full. 

5. Proprietary Rights. The Promotions Application and all intellectual property rights therein and all intellectual property rights relating to the provision of the Support are owned or licensed by Thrive.

Customer shall provide monthly reporting of in-store offer redemptions from Promotions Application, which shall include orders and revenue, if applicable.  Thrive shall be able to utilize all performance data within the Promotions Application for internal purposes only.  Notwithstanding, Customer acknowledges that in generating the Reports, Thrive may use certain materials, products, algorithm processing, training material, best practices and other property that belongs to Thrive (“Thrive Property”).  The parties agree that Thrive shall retain all right, title, and ownership in and to the Thrive Property, including all intellectual property rights pertaining thereto.   Customer shall not: (i) modify, translate, or create derivative works based on the Promotions Application; (ii) create any link to the Promotions Application or frame or mirror any content contained or accessible from the Promotions Application, (iii) reverse engineer, de-compile, disassemble or otherwise attempt to discover the source code or underlying ideas or algorithms of the Promotions Application; or (iv) access the Promotions Application in order to (a) build a competitive product or service, or (b) copy any ideas, features, functions or graphics of the Promotions Application.

THIS SECTION 15 SETS FORTH THRIVE’S SOLE LIABILITY AND CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT. 

16. Customer Indemnification.
