Thank you for visiting VAIRSA-Procurement. Together with the Privacy Policy, these Terms and Conditions are a contractual Agreement between The Seventh Mind and our users, so please read them carefully before accessing or using VAIRSA-Procurement. In consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement, you and The Seventh Mind agree as follows:
The Seventh Mind's mission is to transform software development by analyzing data across the stack to quantify the craft of development. Features and functionality are as described on our Website on the Subscription Date, as such features and functionality may change periodically. We operate our Service on our providers' hosting servers to enable Authorized Users to access and use our Service via the web. By using or accessing any part of our Service, you are representing that you have the capacity and authority to enter into this agreement and are consenting on behalf of yourself and/or as an authorized representative of your company, as applicable, to be bound by this agreement.
The Seventh Mind distributes the Service online. You are solely responsible for providing, installing, and maintaining at your own expense all equipment, facilities, and services necessary to enable Authorized Users' access and use of the Service through the interface, including, without limitation all computer hardware, software, and Internet access.
You are solely responsible for tracking and for ensuring the security and confidentiality of all user identifiers and passwords. The Seventh Mind has no liability with respect to any use or misuse of such identifiers or passwords, and any use other than as provided in this Agreement will be considered a breach of this Agreement by you.
Agreement will be considered a breach of this Agreement by you. The Seventh Mind has implemented commercially reasonable, industry-standard technical and organizational measures designed to secure your data from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure.
You will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure, through proper instructions and enforcement actions, that all access to and use of the Service by you or Authorized Users, or otherwise through your facilities, equipment, identifiers, or passwords, will conform to this Agreement and will be made and used solely for proper and legal purposes, and will be conducted in a manner that does not violate any law or regulation, the rights of any third party, or this Agreement.
No provision of this Agreement includes the right to, and you will not, directly or indirectly:
In the event you violate any of the terms in this section, in addition to any other remedies available at law or in equity, The Seventh Mind will have the right, in its discretion, to immediately suspend your and Authorized Users' use and access to the Service.
This Agreement will commence on the Subscription Date and, unless terminated early in accordance with Section 7, continue for the number of days or months or year(s) specified in the Subscription as measured from the Subscription Date (the "Initial Period").
If you are using a Paying Plan, this Agreement will automatically renew for successive renewal periods of the same duration of the Initial Period (each, a "Renewal Period") unless one party gives notice of termination or non-renewal. The Initial Period and all subsequent Renewal Periods are collectively the "Service Period."
If you are using the Service under a Free Plan, this Agreement will be deemed 15 days and either party will be free to not renew, or to terminate, this Agreement immediately upon notice to the other.
It is your responsibility to properly cancel your account with The Seventh Mind. You can cancel your account at any time by going into your account settings.
Any and all rights granted to you with respect to the Service and Technology, and any and all rights granted to The Seventh Mind with respect to your data except as written in Section 11.2, will terminate on the effective date of termination. You agree to return to The Seventh Mind any and all Confidential Information of The Seventh Mind in your possession or control. This Section 7 and Sections 4, 6, and 10-15 will survive the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement.
The Seventh Mind's only obligation with respect to any electronic information transmitted or received by you or Authorized Users in relation to use of the Service is to promptly delete or destroy any information that is stored in the Service database on the effective date of termination upon your request. You acknowledge that the duration of the retention of such information is determined by the terms of the applicable Free Plan or Paying Plan. In addition, you acknowledge that although information in the Service database will be deleted from its transaction servers, The Seventh Mind may retain such information stored on automatic backup archiving systems during the period such backup or archived materials are retained under The Seventh Mind's customary procedures and policies. In addition, The Seventh Mind may retain certain information as provided in Section 11.2.
The Seventh Mind may terminate this Agreement immediately upon notice to you if you breach any provisions in the Agreement, in order to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or if you default in the timely payment of any amounts due The Seventh Mind under a Paying Plan.
Excluding scheduled maintenance windows, The Seventh Mind will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain 99.8% availability of the hosted portion of the Service for each month during the term of this Agreement. The Service will be deemed "available" so long as Authorized Users are able to login to the Service interface and access data.
If you are under a Paying Plan, The Seventh Mind will provide in-product and help desk support ("Help Desk"). Although no response times are guaranteed, The Seventh Mind will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to such support requests within 24 hours. The Seventh Mind may delegate the performance of certain portions of the Support to third parties, but will remain responsible to you for delivery. In the event any Support is not performed with reasonable skill, care, and diligence, The Seventh Mind will re-perform the Support to the extent necessary to correct the defective performance, and you acknowledge that re-performance will be your sole and exclusive remedy for any defective performance.
Subject to this Agreement, The Seventh Mind will make the Service available to you and Authorized Users during the Service Period, and The Seventh Mind hereby grants to you, during the Service Period, a nonexclusive, non transferable, limited right to enable Authorized Users to access and use the Service through the interface and the Website, and to access and use The Seventh Mind's technical and operations documentation and Agents (as defined in Section 9) in support solely for your internal, business use.
You acknowledge that your and each Authorized User's access and use of the Service are subject to The Seventh Mind's Privacy Policy which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. The Seventh Mind may delegate the performance of certain portions of the Service to third parties, but will remain responsible to you for delivery. The Seventh Mind may in its discretion modify, enhance, or otherwise change the Service.
The Seventh Mind will make various application program interfaces (APIs), agents, libraries, and other materials available at the Website or through the Service at its discretion to support your access and use of the Service (collectively, "Agents"). You acknowledge and agree that:
You agree to review any electronic documentation that accompanies the Agents or is identified in a link provided to you to determine which portions of the Agents are open source and are licensed under open source license terms. To the extent any such license terms require that The Seventh Mind provide you the rights to copy, modify, distribute, or otherwise use any open source software in the Agents that are inconsistent with the limited rights granted to you in this Agreement, then such rights in the applicable open source license terms will take precedence over the rights and restrictions granted in this Agreement, but solely with respect to such open source software. Further, you acknowledge and agree that all third-party content is governed by its respective terms and such terms are solely between you and the applicable licensor. You agree to comply with such third-party terms (including open source license terms), as applicable, and The Seventh Mind has no liability with respect to third-party content under this Agreement.
As used in this Agreement, "Confidential Information" means any information that is proprietary or confidential to the Discloser (as defined below) or that the Discloser is obligated to keep confidential (e.g., pursuant to a contractual or other obligation owing to a third party). Confidential Information may be of a technical, business, or other nature. However, Confidential Information does not include any information that:
Each party reserves any and all right, title, and interest (including any intellectual property rights) that it may have in or to any Confidential Information that it may disclose to the other party under this Agreement. The party that receives any Confidential Information (the "Recipient") of the other party (the "Discloser") will protect Confidential Information of the Discloser against any Unauthorized Use or disclosure to the same extent that the Recipient protects its own Confidential Information of a similar nature against Unauthorized Use or disclosure, but in no event will use less than a reasonable standard of care to protect such Confidential Information; provided that the Confidential Information of the Discloser is conspicuously marked or otherwise identified as confidential or proprietary upon receipt by the Recipient or the Recipient otherwise knows or has reason to know that the same is Confidential Information of the Discloser. The Recipient will use any Confidential Information of the Discloser solely for the purposes for which the Discloser provides it.
This section will not be interpreted or construed to prohibit:
In the event of any breach or threatened breach by the Recipient of its obligations under this section, the Discloser will be entitled to injunctive and other equitable relief to enforce such obligations. The obligations of confidentiality will survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.
As set forth in the Non-Disclosure Agreement, you agree that you will not disclose, publish, or otherwise disseminate any Confidential Information to anyone other than individuals who are employees of The Seventh Mind, members of the pre-release program, or as otherwise expressly permitted or agreed to in writing by The Seventh Mind. You further agree to take reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use, disclosure, publication, or dissemination of Confidential Information, including preventing access to or display of the Service to third parties. You agree to use the Confidential Information solely for the permitted uses as set forth in this Agreement. You agree not to use Confidential Information otherwise for your own or any third party's benefit without the prior written approval of an authorized representative of The Seventh Mind in each instance.
You retain ownership, right, and responsibility to all text, software, audio, video, images, or other content that you and/or any Authorized User run on or through the Service (collectively "Customer Data"), subject only to the limited rights expressly granted in this Agreement and intellectual property rights. You are solely responsible, and The Seventh Mind assumes no liability for the Customer Data that Authorized Users or other third parties post, send, or otherwise make available over or through the Service.
In order to provide and support the Service for your benefit, you hereby grant The Seventh Mind a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license during the Service Period to use, reproduce, electronically distribute, transmit, have transmitted, perform, display, store, and archive Customer Data. You agree that, so long as no Confidential Information is publicly disclosed, The Seventh Mind may:
As used in this Agreement, "Technology"means any and all know-how, processes, methodologies, specifications, designs, inventions, functionality, graphics, techniques, methods, applications, computer programs, libraries, user manuals, documentation, products or other technology and materials of any kind, or any enhancement thereto, used by The Seventh Mind in connection with the performance of the Service or the Support, or made available by The Seventh Mind to you, any Authorized User, or any third party in connection with the Service or the Support. Without limiting the above, Technology includes the products, services, and technology made available through the Website, the Agents, the Service interface, and any The Seventh Mind branded or co-branded websites (including sub-domains, widgets, and mobile versions).
The Service and Technology constitute or otherwise involve valuable intellectual property rights of The Seventh Mind, and The Seventh Mind will own all right, title, and interest in and to the above. No title to or ownership of the Service or Technology, or any intellectual property rights associated therewith, is transferred to you, any Authorized User, or any third party under this Agreement. Sections 8-9 describe the entirety of your limited rights to access and use the Service and Agents and to make the Service and Agents available to Authorized Users. Except with respect to certain of the Agents, in no event will you be entitled to access or review any object code or source code. The Seventh Mind reserves all rights to the Service and Technology not otherwise expressly granted herein.
You understand and agree that we will not be liable to you or any third party for any damage, injury, or loss of profits, use, goodwill, or data, or for any incidental, indirect, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, however arising, that result from:
Our liability is limited whether or not we have been informed of the possibility of such damages, and even if a remedy described in this Agreement is found to have failed of its essential purpose. We will have no liability for any failure or delay due to matters beyond our reasonable control.
These limitations will not apply to damages arising out of a party's failure to comply with its confidentiality obligations, indemnification obligations, or payment obligations to The Seventh Mind. Except for their respective indemnity and confidentiality obligations, in no event will either party, their affiliates, directors, employees, or licensors be liable to the other party or any authorized user for any claims, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, damages, losses, or costs in an amount exceeding the fees you paid to The Seventh Mind.
This limitation of liability section applies whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if the non-breaching party has been advised of the possibility of such damage. The above limitations of liability will apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction.
This section states The Seventh Mind's entire liability and your exclusive remedies for intellectual property rights infringement. You hereby represent and warrant to The Seventh Mind that you have the authority to enter into and perform this Agreement, and that performance of the Agreement's obligations and exercise of its rights do not and will not violate any applicable laws, regulations, or orders.
You hereby represent, warrant, and covenant that:
The Seventh Mind hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to you, if under a Paying Plan, that:
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless The Seventh Mind and its employees, contractors, agents, officers, and directors, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, or debt and expenses (including without limitation attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:
The Seventh Mind agrees to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless you, if under a Paying Plan, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, or debt and expenses (including without limitation attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:
In addition, if the Service or Technology becomes the subject of a claim of infringement of a copyright or patent, The Seventh Mind will indemnify you, if under a Paying Plan, against such claim provided that you give The Seventh Mind prompt written notice of the claim, allow The Seventh Mind to direct the defense and settlement of the claim, and cooperate with The Seventh Mind as necessary, at The Seventh Mind's expense, for defense and settlement of the claim. If the Service or Technology become, or, in The Seventh Mind's opinion is likely to become, the subject of such a claim, The Seventh Mind will have the right to obtain for you the right to continue using the Service or Technology, replace or modify the Service or Technology so that it becomes non-infringing, or terminate the rights granted here to such Service or Technology with refund to you of any fees paid for such Service and Technology (less a reasonable charge for the period during which you has had available to it the use of such Service and Technology).
The Seventh Mind will have no liability for any infringement claim to the extent it:
Except as expressly provided in this agreement, the services, technology, support, and all other items provided in connection therewith are provided on an "as is"basis without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. The Seventh Mind disclaims all warranties, express or implied, arising by law or otherwise, with respect to any error, defect, deficiency, infringement, or noncompliance in the services, technology, support, or any other items provided by, through, or on behalf of The Seventh Mind under this agreement (including without limitation any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement and any implied warranty arising from course of performance, course of dealing, or usage of trade).

The parties expressly understand and agree that their relationship is that of independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement will constitute one party as an employee, agent, joint venture partner, or servant of another.
The Seventh Mind will have no liability to you, Authorized Users, or third parties for any failure or delay in performing any obligation under this Agreement due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including without limitation acts of God, fires, floods, strikes, civil disturbances or terrorism, or interruptions in power, communications, satellites, the Internet, or any other network that are beyond its reasonable control.
