10. Fees and Payment.​

10.1 Publicly Available Offerings.​

Some Offerings may be offered to the public and licensed on a royalty free basis, including Offerings that require a Paid Plan for software licensing fees above a certain threshold of use. These terms apply to all Offerings regardless of whether they require a Paid Plan.

10.2 Offering Fees.​

If your use of an Offering does not require an Order or Paid Plan but software licensing fees are charged contemporaneously with your use of the Offering, those fees will be charged as described on the Site or in the user interface of the Offering. Such fees may be calculated by combining a fee charged by us and a fee charged by a Third Party Offering that provides certain functionality related to the Offering. For those Offerings which entail an Order or Paid Plan, we calculate and bill fees and charges according to your Order or Paid Plan. For such Offerings, on the first day of each billing period, you will pay us the applicable fees (the “Base Fees”) and any applicable taxes based on the Offerings in the Paid Plan. In addition, for particular Orders, we may issue an invoice to you for all charges above the applicable threshold for your Paid Plan which constitute overage fees for the previous billing period. If you make any other changes to the Offerings during a billing period (for example, upgrading or downgrading your Paid Plan), we will apply any additional charges or credits to the next billing period. We may bill you more frequently for fees accrued at our discretion upon notice to you. You will pay all fees in U.S. dollars unless the particular Offering specifies a different form of payment or otherwise agreed to by you and us in writing. All amounts payable by you under this Agreement will be paid to us without setoff or counterclaim, and without any deduction or withholding. Fees and charges for any new Offering or new feature of an Offering will be effective when we use commercially reasonable efforts to communicate updated fees and charges through our Site, the interface of the Offering itself, or other public channels or, if you are on a Paid Plan, upon commercially reasonable efforts to notify you directly, but we may expressly state when notifying you that another effective date applies. We may increase or add new fees and charges for any existing Offerings you are using by using commercially reasonable efforts to notify users of the Offerings through our Site, the interface of the Offering itself, other public channels or, if you are on a Paid Plan, by giving you 30 days’ notice. Unless otherwise specified in an Order, all Paid Plan amounts due under this Agreement are payable within 30 days following receipt of your invoice. We may elect to charge you interest at the rate of 1.5% per month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less) on all late payments.

10.3 Taxes.​

Each party will be responsible, as required under applicable law, for identifying and paying all taxes and other governmental fees and charges (and any penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) that are imposed on that party upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under this Agreement. All fees payable by you are exclusive taxes unless otherwise noted. We reserve the right to withhold taxes where required.

11. Temporary Suspension; Limiting API Requests.​

11.1 Generally. We may suspend your right to access or use any portion or all of the Offerings immediately if we determine:

(a) your use of the Offerings (i) poses a security risk to the Offerings or any third party, (ii) could adversely impact our systems, the Offerings, or the systems of any other user, (iii) could subject us, our affiliates, or any third party to liability, or (iv) could be unlawful;

(b) you are, or any End User is, in breach of this Agreement;

(c) you are in breach of your payment obligations under Section 10 for 30 days or longer; or

(d) for entities, you have ceased to operate in the ordinary course, made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar disposition of your assets, or become the subject of any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or similar proceeding.

11.2 Effect of Suspension.​

If we suspend your right to access or use any portion or all of an Offering:

(a) you remain responsible for all fees and charges you incur during the period of suspension; and

(b) you will not be entitled to any fee credits for any period of suspension.

11.3 Limiting API Requests.​

We retain sole discretion to limit your API requests (“API Requests”) submitted in conjunction with your use of an Offering at any time if your usage of the Offering exceeds the usage threshold specified in your Paid Plan or otherwise on the Site or user interface of the Offering. Further, excessive API requests, as determined by Consensys in our sole discretion, may result in the temporary or permanent suspension of your access to an account or to your use of the applicable Offering. Consensys is not required but will endeavor, when reasonable, to warn an account owner or user prior to suspension.

12. Term; Termination.​

12.1 Term.​

For Offerings subject to a Paid Plan, the term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will remain in effect until terminated under this Section 12 or by separate written agreement. Any notice of termination of this Agreement by either party to the other must include a Termination Date that complies with the notice periods in Section 12.2. For Offerings that are not subject to a Paid Plan, the term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and will remain in effect until you stop accessing or using the Offerings.

12.2 Termination.​

(a) Termination for Convenience. If you are not on a Paid Plan, you may terminate this Agreement for any reason by ceasing use of the Offering. For Paid Plans, Torus Labs may terminate this Agreement for any reason after providing 30 calendar days’ written notice.

(b) Termination for Cause.

(i) By Either Party. Either party may terminate this Agreement for cause if the other party is in material breach of this Agreement and the material breach remains uncured for a period of 30 days from receipt of the other party’s notice of breach.

(ii) By Us. We may also terminate this Agreement for cause immediately (A) if we have the right to suspend under Section 11, (B) if our relationship with a third-party partner who provides software or other technology we use to provide the Offerings expires, terminates, or requires us to change the way we provide the software or other technology as part of the Offerings, or (C) in order to avoid undue risk of violating the law.

12.3 Effect of Termination. Upon the Termination Date:​

(i) all your rights under this Agreement immediately terminate; and

(ii) each party remains responsible for all fees and charges it has incurred through the Termination Date and are responsible for any fees and charges it incurs during the post-termination period;

(iii) the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement to the full extent necessary for their enforcement and for the protection of the party in whose favor they operate. For instance, should this Agreement between you and us terminate, any dispute raised after you stop accessing or using the Offerings will be subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement if that dispute relates to your prior access or use.

For any use of the Offerings after the Termination Date, the terms of this Agreement will again apply and, if your use is under a Paid Plan, you will pay the applicable fees at the rates under Section 10.

‌13. No Third Party Beneficiaries​

‌15. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver​

‌PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT

‌15.1 Initial Dispute Resolution​

‌The parties shall use their best efforts to engage directly to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement and engage in good faith negotiations which shall be a condition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

‌15.2 Binding Arbitration​

‌If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of 30 days from the time informal dispute resolution under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision begins, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or your use of the Service shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre in accordance with the provisions of its Arbitration Rules and the supplementary procedures for consumer related disputes of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (the “SIAC”), excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions.

‌The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable, or whether a claim is subject to arbitration. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be written, and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.‌

15.3 Location​

Binding arbitration shall take place in Singapore. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any court in Singapore, in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

15.4 Class Action Waiver​

The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND TORUS LABS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

15.5 Exception - Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims​

‌Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court to protect its intellectual property rights (“intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

‌15.6 30-Day Right to Opt Out​

You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following address: Torus Labs, 60 Paya Lebar Road #04-46 Paya Lebar Square Singapore 409051 and via email at hello@tor.us. The notice must be sent within 30 days of July 18, 2019 or your first use of the Service, whichever is later, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those paragraphs. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, Torus Labs also will not be bound by them.

‌15.7 Changes to this Section​

‌Torus Labs will provide 30-days’ notice of any changes to this section. Changes will become effective on the 30th day, and will apply prospectively only to any claims arising after the 30th day.

For any dispute not subject to arbitration you and Torus Labs agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in the courts located in Singapore. You further agree to accept service of process by mail, and hereby waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defences otherwise available.

The Terms and the relationship between you and Torus Labs shall be governed by the laws of Singapore without regard to conflict of law provisions.

‌16.2 Waiver and Severability of Terms​

‌The failure of Torus Labs to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
