Specifically, Evisions grants Customer unlimited access and use of the Products by staff, faculty, students, contractors and Customer Affiliates (together, “Authorized Users”) working at, with or for Customer. Under this Agreement, Customer may not make the Products available to any other entities, institutions or other third parties beyond the Authorized Users.
2.2 Customer acknowledges that the Products contain trade secrets and confidential information of Evisions and its licensors. Customer shall take reasonable steps to prevent disclosure of the features and functions of the Products to unauthorized third parties.
2.3 All right, title and interest in the Products shall remain in Evisions and its licensors. Customer may not access the object code or source code of the Products without Evisions’ prior written consent and Customer may not duplicate, modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or create derivative works based upon the Products.
2.4 Customer may not assign its rights under this Agreement to a third party.
2.5 Evisions may, with seven (7) days written notice to Customer, suspend availability of or use of all or any portion of the Products at any time if Evisions should reasonably determine that Customer is in material breach of Sections 2.1-2.4 of this Agreement. Any failure of Customer to timely make any required payment to Evisions will allow Evisions to suspend the subscription if not cured within thirty (30) days of written notification.

Except as provided in Section 3.3, Evisions shall not be required to develop any specific Enhancement under this Agreement.

Customer shall notify Evisions of any errors it finds in accordance with Evisions’ then current reporting procedures and Evisions has the right to confirm the error before initiating a fix by replicating it or confirming it through other troubleshooting procedures. If the error is material to the operation of the Service or Products and Evisions is unable to fix the error after making commercially reasonable efforts as set forth herein, then Evisions has the right to terminate this Agreement and refund the pro rata portion of the fees for the unused portion of the Term.
3.4 Customer hereby grants Evisions use of the Customer Data solely to the extent required to solve technical support problems or to perform maintenance services under this Agreement. Evisions agrees that Customer Data may contain confidential information and intellectual property of Customer and/or its contractors. Evisions agrees that it shall take all reasonable precautions necessary to keep Customer content secure and Evisions will not use (other than as may be needed to perform technical support and maintenance services) or disclose any Customer Data without the express written permission of Customer.
3.5 Upon notice to and approval by Customer, which approval shall not unreasonably be withheld, Evisions may subcontract to a third party or parties any and all tasks or services to be provided under this Agreement and Evisions may sublicense to such third party or parties the rights licensed to Evisions pursuant to Section 3.4 for the sole purpose of enabling such parties to host, support, deliver, enhance or maintain the Hosting Facility and the Products. In the event Evisions subcontracts for the delivery of any such services, Evisions shall remain responsible to Customer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and impose restrictions and obligations on any such third party comparable to the restrictions and obligations imposed on Evisions hereunder.

7.2 If a third party infringement claim is asserted in relation to the Service or Products, or if Evisions believes such a claim is likely to be asserted, Evisions may at its option and expense either: (a) replace or modify the Products or alter the Service so that it becomes non-infringing; or (b) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Products and Service. If neither of the foregoing alternatives is reasonably available, Evisions may terminate availability of the Service and/or Products and, in such event, Evisions shall refund to Customer a proportional amount of the fees paid therefore.
8. Customer Indemnification.

The Evisions technician responding to Customer’s inquiry will be experienced, technically competent, and familiar with the Service and Products.

ii) High – Production Critical. Reserved for issues when the production environment is threatened, but not actually down. Evisions will respond the same day the request is received (if the request is received by 4:00 pm Pacific Time of any day the help desk is open or, if received later, the next business day).
iii) Medium – Time Sensitive. Evisions will respond within 24 hours of the time the request is received, excluding in the computation of such 24 hours any days outside of normal business hours.

Evisions may undertake scheduled maintenance of the Service or the Products during time periods designated by Evisions. Evisions will provide Customer with no less than 48 hours prior electronic mail or other notice of any scheduled maintenance that is likely to make the Products inaccessible or unusable and will only perform this type of scheduled maintenance outside of normal business hours.
