 Each party acknowledges that in connection with this Agreement it will have access to certain confidential, personal and/or proprietary information of the other party (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information includes but is not confined to information either marked as confidential or information known by the receiving party as being treated by the disclosing party as confidential, and shall remain the sole property of the disclosing party. The receiving party agrees to keep Confidential Information confidential and not to use such information except as authorised by this Agreement or the disclosing party, and to accord to such information the same standards and protections that it uses to protect its own confidential information, save that the receiving party shall have the right to disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by applicable law or to the directors, officers or employees of the receiving party who have a need to know such Confidential Information in order to perform its obligations under the Agreement and to the extent such directors, officers or employees are subject to obligations of confidentiality and non-disclosure that are substantially similar to the obligations set forth in this Agreement.

In addition, a party will not be considered to have breached its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by any governmental authority, provided that, to the extent legally practicable, the receiving party advises the disclosing party prior to making such disclosure in order that the disclosing party may object to such disclosure, take action to ensure confidential treatment of the Confidential Information, or take such other action as it considers appropriate to protect the Confidential Information. Except for Confidential Information necessary for the performance of obligations or exercise of rights under this Agreement, materials or documents containing Confidential Information will be returned to the disclosing party promptly following written requests thereof or otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

11. Force Majeure.
If any party is prevented from performing any of its obligations under the Agreement due to any cause beyond the party’s reasonable control, the time for that party’s performance will be extended for the period of the delay or failure to perform due to such cause, except that you will not be excused from the payment of any sums of money owed by you to Poket prior to such cause.

12. Termination.

A. Personal Users. Poket or the Personal User may terminate this Agreement at any time with or without reason or notice. Poket may terminate this Agreement by ceasing to provide the Services to the Personal User, and the Personal User may terminate this Agreement by uninstalling the Application from its mobile devices and never access to Poket Personal User account again. Upon termination, (i) Poket shall be entitled to inform any Merchant with whom the Personal User has registered in respect of any Merchant Program of the Personal User’s termination of this Agreement, and may delete or retain information relating to the Personal User as allowed or required under applicable law; and (ii) the Personal User shall immediately cease using the Services in any way save only for the purposes of terminating the Agreement or complying with any obligations surviving thereafter.

Unless otherwise provided in the Merchant Agreement or Subscription Plan, at the end of the applicable Subscription Plan (“Existing Subscription Plan”), the Existing Subscription Plan will automatically renew for another year unless either party gives written notice to the other party at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the initial or any renewal term of the party’s intent not to renew. No subscription amount shall be refunded to Merchant upon termination. Each party (“Terminating Party”) shall have the right to terminate the Agreement with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party (“Other Party”), or in the case of termination by Poket, by Poket ceasing to provide the Services to the Merchant, or in the case of termination by the Merchant, by the Merchant de-registering its account with Poket: (i) if the other party becomes insolvent, goes into liquidation, passes any resolution for its liquidation or winding up, or any step is taken by the Other Party or any other third party for the appointment of a receiver, judicial manager or like officer in relation to the Other Party; (ii) upon the dissolution of the Other Party; or (iii) if the Other Party is in material breach of any of its obligations under this Agreement (including non-payment of any amounts due and payable by the Merchant to Poket) and has not cured such breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the Terminating Party within fourteen (14) days of the Terminating Party’s notice to the Other Party to cure such breach. Upon termination: (i) Poket shall be entitled to inform any Personal User which has registered with the Merchant in respect of any Merchant Program of the Merchant’s termination of this Agreement and any matter relating thereto, and may delete or retain information relating to the Merchant as allowed or required under applicable law; and (ii) the Merchant shall immediately cease using the Services in any way save only for the purposes of terminating the Agreement or complying with any obligations surviving thereafter.

C. Surviving Obligations. The obligations of Poket and you under this Agreement that by their nature would continue beyond the termination of this Agreement, including without limitation obligations of confidentiality, shall survive termination thereof.

18. Amendment and Waiver. Poket may amend any of the terms and conditions of this Agreement from time to time, and shall publish the updated terms and conditions on Poket’s website or through the Services. You shall be solely responsible for regularly reviewing and keeping yourself informed and up to date of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The failure of either party to exercise or enforce any of its rights under the Agreement will not act as a waiver of any breach and the waiver of any breach will not act as a waiver of any subsequent breaches.

19. Further Assurances. The parties shall each do all such acts, matters and things as may be reasonably necessary to give full effect to this Agreement.

20. Costs and Expenses. Each party shall pay its own costs and expenses in connection with this Agreement.
