This Standard Contract (the “Standard Contract”) sets forth the terms and conditions applicable to the licensing of Product from the licensor (“Licensor”) by the Party (defined below) subscribing to the Product (“Buyer”), deployed into Buyer’s Computing Environment. This Standard Contract only applies if the Product is expressly offered pursuant to the Standard Contract. The offer of Product pursuant to this Standard Contract, and Buyer’s purchase of the corresponding Subscription, constitutes each Party’s respective acceptance of this Standard Contract and their entry into this Agreement (defined below), and this Agreement will become effective on the date of Buyer’s purchase of the corresponding Subscription. Unless defined elsewhere in this Standard Contract, terms in initial capital letters have the meanings set forth in Section 13. Buyer and Licensor may be referred to collectively as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party”.
1.2 Product Subscription. Licensor will fulfill the Subscription to Buyer. A Subscription, as described in the applicable Product Listing and the corresponding purchase transaction, may be for Product deployed in Buyer’s Computing Environment. The pricing and term of the Subscription (if not on demand) are set forth in the Product Listing. Additional information concerning the Product and included services that are included or referenced in the Product Listing are a part of the Product Listing; such information may include but is not limited to: intended geographic use of the Product, any technical requirements for use of the Product, Support Services (which may vary by geography), information regarding Open Source Software and a description of Licensor’s security practices.
1.3 Agreement. Each Subscription is subject to and governed by this Standard Contract, the applicable Product Listing, the terms and conditions of the NDA (if any and as defined in Section 6.4), and any amendments to any of the foregoing as may be agreed upon by the Parties in accordance with Section 12.3, which together constitute the entire agreement between Buyer and Licensor (the “Agreement”). Each Subscription is a separate agreement between Buyer and Licensor. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of the various components of this Agreement, the following order of precedence will apply: (a) any amendment agreed upon by the Parties; (b) the NDA (if any); (c) the Product Listing; and (d) this Standard Contract.
2. Licenses.

2.1.1 If the Subscription is for a Product, or includes a component of a Product, deployed in Buyer’s Computing Environment, Licensor hereby grants to Buyer during the term of the Subscription, subject to Section 2.1.3, a nonexclusive, worldwide (subject to Section 12.4), nontransferable (except in connection with an assignment permitted under Section 12.2), non-terminable (except as provided in Section 10) license under all Proprietary Rights in and to the Product, or the applicable Product component, to deploy, operate and use the Product in Buyer’s Computing Environment and to allow its Users to access and use the Product, or the applicable Product component, as so deployed, in accordance with the Product Listing, the usage purchased in the Subscription, and the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

The terms of this Agreement apply to Open Source Software (i) to the extent not prohibited by the license to which the Open Source Software is subject, including without limitation, warranties and indemnification, and (ii) except to the extent required by the license to which the Open Source Software is subject, in which case the terms of such license will apply in lieu of the terms of this Agreement only with respect to such Open Source Software, and not to the entire Product, including without limitation, any provisions governing attribution, access to source code, modification and reverse-engineering.

No shrink-wrap, click-acceptance or other terms and conditions outside this Agreement provided with any Licensed Materials or any part thereof (“Additional Terms”) will be binding on Buyer or its Users, even if use of the Licensed Materials, or any part thereof, requires an affirmative “acceptance” of such Additional Terms before access to or use of the Licensed Materials, or any part thereof, is permitted. All such Additional Terms will be of no force or effect and will be deemed rejected by Buyer in their entirety. For clarity, the Product Listing and or Documentation are not Additional Terms subject to this Section.

Except for rights expressly granted in this Agreement, each Party reserves all rights in and to its Confidential Information. The Parties agree that the Licensed Materials are Confidential Information of Licensor.
6.2 Obligations. The Parties will maintain as confidential and will avoid disclosure and unauthorized use of Confidential Information of the other Party using reasonable precautions. Each Party will protect such Confidential Information with the same degree of care that a prudent person would exercise to protect its own confidential information of a like nature, and to prevent the unauthorized, negligent, or inadvertent use, disclosure, or publication thereof or access thereto. Each Party will restrict Confidential Information to individuals who need to know such Confidential Information and who are bound to confidentiality obligations at least as protective as the restrictions described in this Section 6. Except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement, neither Party will use Confidential Information of the other Party for any purpose except in fulfilling its obligations or exercising its rights under this Agreement or as necessar for proper use of the Product. Each Party will promptly notify the other Party if it becomes aware of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the other Party’s Confidential Information, and reasonably cooperate with the other Party in attempts to limit disclosure.
6.3 Compelled Disclosure. If and to the extent required by applicable Law, including regulatory requirements, discovery request, subpoena, court order or governmental action, the Receiving Party may disclose or produce Confidential Information but will give reasonable prior notice (and where prior notice is not permitted by applicable Law, notice will be given as soon as the Receiving Party is legally permitted) to the Disclosing Party to permit the Disclosing Party to intervene and to request protective orders or confidential treatment therefor or other appropriate remedy regarding such disclosure. Disclosure of any Confidential Information pursuant to any legal requirement will not be deemed to render it non-confidential, and the Receiving Party’s obligations with respect to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party will not be changed or lessened by virtue of any such disclosure. Notwithstanding any provisions herein, if Buyer is a Government Entity, Buyer will comply with all Laws applicable to it with respect to disclosure of public information.
6.4 NDA. Buyer and Licensor may agree to a separate nondisclosure agreement between Buyer and Licensor (or the respective Affiliates of Buyer and Licensor) (“NDA”) that applies to disclosures occurring during the term of the Subscription, in which case the terms and conditions thereof are incorporated herein by reference and will apply instead of subsections 6.1 through 6.3 of this Section 6.
