Cask Data, Inc. Enterprise Terms


Last Updated: January 31, 2016

These Enterprise Terms are part of a legal agreement (such agreement together with these Enterprise Terms, the "Agreement") between the person or entity agreeing to these terms ("Customer") and Cask Data Inc. ("Cask"), a Delaware corporation located at 150 Grant Ave, Suite A, Palo Alto, CA 94306 and includes these Enterprise Terms, any terms expressly incorporated herein by reference, and any terms in a fully-executed ordering document that incorporates these Cask Enterprise Terms (an "Order Schedule"). This Agreement is effective as of the date the Order Schedule is fully executed (the "Effective Date").

Customer may obtain Software, Support and/or other Services (collectively "Products") from Cask subject to the terms of this Agreement. "Software" means software, data and other materials made available to Customer by Cask, including error corrections, modifications and updates to such items, and including the Documentation. "Software" does not include, and Cask does not warrant or support, software obtained from any source other than Cask. "Documentation" means the materials available at http://docs.cask.co/, as amended from time to time. "Support" means the services described in the Cask Support Policy available at www.cask.co/support-policy, as amended from time to time. "Services" means training, consulting or other services (other than Support) specified in an Order Schedule.

1. Subscriptions

1.1. Subscription. Cask provides support and licensing of its Software as a combined subscription (a "Subscription") for the time period specified in Customer's Order Schedule (the "Subscription Period").

1.2. Subscription License. If Customer has purchased a Subscription, then subject to terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement, Cask grants Customer a worldwide, nonexclusive, nontransferable, nonsublicensable, terminable license to use the Software during the Subscription Period (a "Subscription License").

1.3. Support. If Customer has purchased a Subscription, Cask will provide Customer with Support of the Software during the Subscription Period.

2. Consulting Services

If applicable, Cask will provide Consulting Services as specified in an Order Schedule or in a separate Statement of Work (SOW).

3. Payment

3.1. Fees. Customer will pay to Cask all fees (the "Fees") as specified in the Order Schedule. If the due date is not otherwise specified in the Order Schedule, all Fees are due 30 days from the date the applicable Order Schedule is fully-executed. All Subscription Fees are non-refundable. Unless otherwise specified in the Order Schedule, all Fees are in U.S. Dollars.

3.2. Increased Usage. Customer may increase its use of the Software during the Subscription Period beyond the scope specified in the Order Schedule, provided that Customer promptly notifies Cask of the additional usage and pays the applicable Fees. The Order Schedule will specify the scope of the Subscription purchased by Customer, including as follows: (1) number of Hadoop clusters; (2) number of Nodes per Hadoop cluster. "Node" means a Java Virtual Machine (a platform-independent execution environment that converts Java bytecode into machine language and executes it); and (3) the number of CDAP Servers. Unless otherwise specified in a new Order Schedule, the initial term of additional usage will run for the remainder of the then-current Subscription Period, and Cask will invoice Customer for the prorated fee based on the unit price in the then-current Order Schedule.

3.3. Taxes. Customer is responsible for any duties, customs fees, or taxes (other than Cask's income tax) associated with the purchase of the Products provided by Cask, (including any related penalties or interest) ("Taxes"), and shall pay the listed Fees without deduction for Taxes. If Customer is required by local law to withhold any amount from any payments specified in the Order Schedule, then Customer will pay Cask the listed Fees as if no withholding were required, and shall remit the withholding to the appropriate governmental authorities on behalf of Cask, with a copy of the tax receipt or certificate forwarded to Cask.

3.4. Inspection, Audit. During the Agreement Term and for one year thereafter, Cask or its designated agent may inspect Customer's facilities and audit Customer's records to verify Customer's compliance with the Agreement. Any such inspection and audit will take place only during Customer's normal business hours and upon no less than 15 days prior written notice.

3.5. Delinquencies. Any late payments by Customer will accrue late charges at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower (such charges, "Interest Charges"). Customer shall pay to Cask any Interest Charges as invoiced by Cask.

4. Restrictions

All rights in the Software not expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved to Cask or its licensors. Without limiting the foregoing (and subject to the terms applicable to Third Party Software and except to the extent such restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law), Customer shall not, and shall not permit others under its control to (1) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, decompile, translate, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of the Software or any component thereof; (2) assign, sublicense, transfer, lease, rent or otherwise distribute or make available the Software to any third party; (3) use the Software for High Risk Activities or otherwise contrary to the Documentation; (4) use the Software to create, deliver training on, improve (directly or indirectly) or offer a substantially similar product or service; or (5) use the included ODBC driver to connect to other distributions of the components of the Software. "High Risk Activities" means uses such as the operation of nuclear facilities, air traffic control, or life support systems, where the use or failure of the Software could lead to death, personal injury, or environmental damage. "Third Party Software" means third-party software, data, and other material that is subject to terms that are in addition to or different from the terms set forth in this Agreement, and listed at http://docs.cask.co/cdap/current/en/reference-manual/licenses/index.html. Cask provides any Third Party Software subject to the applicable license or other terms specified at the foregoing link or in the "read me" file available upon access to the Software.

5. Proprietary Rights

5.1. Software. The Software is licensed, not sold. As between the parties, all Intellectual Property Rights in the Software shall remain with Cask or its licensors. "Intellectual Property Rights" means all patents, patent applications, copyrights, mask works, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights, worldwide.

5.2. Federal Agency Users. The Software was developed solely at private expense and is commercial computer software and related documentation within the meaning of the applicable Federal Acquisition Regulation and agency supplements thereto.

5.3. Feedback. If Customer provides Cask any suggestions or feedback regarding the Products ("Customer Feedback"), then Cask may use the Customer Feedback without obligation to Customer, and Customer hereby irrevocably assigns to Cask all right, title, and interest in that Customer Feedback.

6. Term & Termination

6.1. Agreement Term. This Agreement will begin on the Effective Date and continue until the later of the following: (1) the expiration or completion of all Subscription Periods or Service commitments under any open Order Schedules; or (2) the date on which the Agreement is terminated as specified herein (such term, the "Agreement Term").

6.2. License Term. Subject to Customer's payment of Fees, the Subscription License will continue for the Subscription Period, unless terminated earlier as set forth in this Agreement. At the end of each Subscription Period, the Subscription will automatically renew under the Agreement, subject to the then-current Cask list price for the Products under Subscription, for an additional Subscription Period of one year, unless either party gives the other notice of nonrenewal at least 30 days before the end of the then-current Subscription Period. Any subscription that carries no fee per the then-current Cask list price for any additional subscription periods (a "No-Fee License") shall continue until terminated, in Cask' sole discretion, on notice to Customer.

6.3. Termination for Breach. Either party may terminate the Agreement if the other party breaches any material term of the Agreement and fails to cure that breach within 30 days after receipt of written notice of such breach by the non-breaching party.

6.4. Effect of Termination. If the Agreement expires or is terminated, then: (1) the rights granted by one party to the other will immediately cease; (2) all Fees owed by Customer are immediately due upon receipt of a final invoice from Cask; and (3) upon request, each party will use commercially reasonable efforts to return or destroy all Confidential Information of the other party.

7. Confidentiality

7.1. Confidentiality Obligation. During the term of this Agreement, both parties agree that (1) Confidential Information will be used only in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement; (2) each will use the same degree of care it uses to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care; and (3) the Confidential Information may be disclosed only to employees, agents and contractors with a need to know, and to its auditors and legal counsel, in each case, who are under a written obligation to keep such information confidential using standards of confidentiality not less restrictive than those required by this Agreement. Cask may use Customer's data for internal business purposes only, including providing Support, and improving, testing and providing the Products. "Confidential Information" means any information designated as confidential orally or in writing by either party, or any information that the receiving party knows, or has reason to know, is confidential or proprietary based upon its treatment by the disclosing party.

This Agreement imposes no obligation with respect to information which: (1) is a part of or enters into the public domain; (2) was already in the recipient's possession prior to the date of disclosure other than by breach of this Agreement; (3) is rightfully received from a third party without any duty of confidentiality; (4) is independently developed without reference to the Confidential Information of the disclosing party.

7.3. Publicity. Customer may state publicly that it is a user of the Products, and Cask may identify Customer as a user of the Products, provided that any such statements shall conform with the trademark usage guidelines provided by one party to the other. Each party must obtain the other party's advance written consent to any press release relating to use of the Products.

8. Warranties

8.1. Services Warranty. Cask warrants that it will perform any Services with reasonable care and skill and consistent with standards generally observed for services of a substantially similar nature. If the Services fail to conform to the foregoing warranty, as Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for such failure, Cask will promptly attempt to re-perform the applicable Service(s) within thirty (30) days or such longer period as agreed to by the parties in writing, or at Cask' option and sole discretion refund any Fees Customer has previously paid for the applicable Service(s).

8.2. Software Warranty. Cask warrants that, during the Subscription Period, the Software will perform in material conformance with its published Documentation. If the Software fails to conform to the foregoing warranty, as Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for such failure, Cask will remedy such issues as provided in the Cask Support Policy, or at Cask' option and sole discretion, and upon Customer's return of the Software to Cask, refund the unused portion of any Fees paid for the Subscription.

8.3. Authority. Each party warrants that it has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement.

8.4. Harmful Code. Cask will use commercially reasonable efforts and commercially available technology to scan the Software made available to Customer for, and to remove from the then-current-version of the Software, any computer "viruses," "worms" and other malicious code.

8.5. No Warranties. Under a No-Fee License, the Software is provided free of charge, and on that basis, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Cask provides the Software "as-is" and without any warranties, and the warranties set forth in this Section 8 shall not apply.

8.6 EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER CASK NOR ITS SUPPLIERS PROVIDES ANY OTHER WARRANTIES REGARDING THE PRODUCTS, AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM CASK OR ELSEWHERE WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY, TERM OR CONDITION UNLESS EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT. THE PRODUCTS ARE NOT DESIGNED, MANUFACTURED, OR INTENDED FOR HIGH RISK ACTIVITIES.

9. Indemnity

9.1. Indemnity by Cask. Cask shall defend or settle at its sole expense any claim brought against Customer, its directors, officers, or employees by a third party alleging that the Software as delivered by Cask infringes or misappropriates any patent, copyright, or trade secret of a third party, and Cask shall pay all damages finally awarded or costs of settlement of the claim provided that Customer: (1) provides Cask prompt written notice of any claim; (2) gives Cask sole control of the defense and settlement of the claim; and (3) provides all reasonable assistance in connection with the claim.

9.2. Injunctions. If Customer's rights to use the Software are, or in Cask' opinion could be, enjoined due to an indemnified claim, then Cask may, at its sole discretion and expense: (1) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Software according to the terms of this Agreement, (2) modify the Software such that it operates with materially equivalent functionality without infringing or misappropriation, or (3) if neither of the foregoing options is commercially reasonable, terminate the Subscription and refund the unused portion of any Fees paid for the Subscription.

9.3. Exclusions. The indemnity provided by Cask under this Agreement does not extend to claims arising from or relating to (1) use of the Software under a No-Fee License; (2) modifications to the Software not provided by or approved in writing by Cask; (3) use of the Software in combination with any data, software, or hardware not provided by Cask to the extent the alleged infringement would not have occurred without the combination; (4) use of the Software that is outside the scope of permissible use under the Subscription License granted herein and the Restrictions set forth in Section 4 of these Enterprise Terms, or (5) allegedly infringing activities that continue after Cask has informed Customer in writing of and made available to Customer at no additional charge a version of the Software that would have avoided the alleged infringement.

9.4. Remedy. This section states Customer's sole and exclusive remedy with respect to claims of infringement of third party proprietary rights of any kind and is subject to the terms of the section titled "Limitation of Liability."

10. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Cask or its suppliers be liable for damages other than direct damages, including the cost of procurement of substitute goods or technology, loss of profits, or for any special, consequential, incidental, punitive or indirect damages on any theory of liability, whether in statute, contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the total liability of Cask to Customer under this Agreement exceed the greater of the total amounts paid by Customer to Cask during the 12 months prior to the date the claim arises, or ten thousand US dollars. The liability limitations in this paragraph (and otherwise in the Agreement) do not limit or exclude damages for bodily injury or death or other damages that under applicable law cannot be limited or excluded.

11. Miscellaneous

11.1. Affiliates. Cask and Customer agree that Affiliates of Customer may acquire Products from Cask or its Affiliates by entering an Order Schedule with Cask (or a Cask Affiliate) that incorporates the terms and conditions of the Agreement. The parties acknowledge that adjustments to the terms of the Agreement may be made in a particular Order Schedule (for example, to address disparate tax and/or legal regimes in other geographic regions). "Affiliate" means an entity that owns or controls, is owned or controlled by, or is under common control or ownership with a party, where "control" is the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of an entity, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

11.2. Assignment. The Agreement may not be assigned by either party by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may assign this Agreement in its entirety (including all Order Schedules), without consent of the other party, to its Affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the business to which the Agreement relates.

11.3. Conflicting Terms. If there is a conflict among the documents that make up the Agreement, the documents will control in the following order: the Order Schedule, these Enterprise Terms, and the terms located at any URL referenced in these Enterprise Terms.

11.4. Entire Agreement. The Agreement sets out all terms agreed between the parties and supersedes all other agreements between the parties relating to its subject matter. In entering into the Agreement, neither party has relied on, and neither party will have any right or remedy based on, any statement, representation or warranty (whether made negligently or innocently), except those expressly set out in the Agreement. The terms located at a URL referenced in the Agreement are hereby incorporated by this reference. After the Effective Date, Cask may provide Customer with an updated URL in place of any URL in the Agreement. Customer agrees that its purchase of a Subscription is neither contingent upon the delivery of any future functionality or features nor dependent upon any oral or written public comments made by Cask, including any roadmaps or target release dates, with respect to future functionality or features.

11.5. Export Controls. Customer agrees to comply with all export and re-export restrictions and regulations of the Department of Commerce and any other United States or foreign agencies and authorities in connection with Customer's use of the Products. In particular, but without limitation, the Software may not, in violation of any laws, be exported or re-exported (1) into any U.S. embargoed country or (2) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Commerce Department's Table of Deny Orders. Customer represents and warrants that Customer and its Affiliates are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any such country or on any such list.

11.6. Force Majeure. Neither party will be liable for failure or delay in its performance under the Agreement to the extent caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable control.

11.7. Governing Law. The Agreement is to be construed in accordance with and governed by the internal laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws principles, and any disputes arising hereunder will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts of Santa Clara County, California, USA; the parties consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts. Each party hereby waives any right to jury trial in any litigation in any way arising out of or related to the Agreement.

11.8. Independent Contractors. The Agreement will not be construed as creating an agency, partnership, joint venture or any other form of association, for tax purposes or otherwise, between the parties; the parties will at all times be and remain independent contractors.

11.9. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The Agreement does not confer any benefits on any third party unless it expressly states that it does.

11.11. Severability and Waiver. In the event that any provision of the Agreement (or any portion hereof) is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the provision (or portion) will be enforced to the extent possible consistent with the stated intention of the parties, or, if incapable of enforcement, will be deemed to be severed and deleted from this Agreement, while the remainder of the Agreement will continue in full force. The waiver by either party of any default or breach of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of any other or subsequent default or breach.

11.12. Survival. The following sections will survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement: Payment, Restrictions, Proprietary Rights, Effect of Termination (Section 6.4), Confidentiality, Limitation of Liability, and Miscellaneous.

11.13. Updates. Except as expressly provided herein, no modification of the Agreement will be effective unless contained in writing and signed by an authorized representative of each party. Cask may make changes to terms located at a URL referenced in this Agreement, including these Enterprise Terms (collectively, the "URL Terms") from time to time. Cask will post the amended terms and will update the "Last Updated Date" at the top. By continuing to access or use the Software after Cask has provided Customer with such notice of a change, Customer is indicating that it agrees to be bound by the modified terms. If the change has a material adverse impact on Customer and Customer does not agree to the change, Customer must notify Cask within thirty days after being informed of the change. If Customer notifies Cask as required, then Customer will remain governed by the terms in effect immediately prior to the change until the end of the then-current Subscription Period (or, in the case of Services, the completion of the applicable Services). If the Subscription Period is renewed, it will do so under the updated URL Terms.
