Customer is solely responsible for: (a) all use of the Services under its account (whether or not authorized); (b) all acts and omissions of Authorized Users, including ensuring that it and its Authorized Users only use the Services in compliance with the Documentation, this Agreement and all Applicable Law (any breach of this Agreement by an Authorized User shall be deemed a breach by Customer); (c) the entry, accuracy, integrity and legality of Customer Data and the means by which it acquires, provides and uses such Customer Data; (d) using commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to or use of the Services (and promptly notifying Sublime in the event of any such unauthorized access or use); and (e) determining whether the Services are suitable or sufficient for its business purposes.

Customer’s use of third-party products or services that are not licensed to Customer directly by Sublime (“Third-Party Services”) shall be governed solely by the terms and conditions applicable to such Third-Party Services, as agreed to between Customer and the third-party. Sublime does not endorse or support, is not responsible for, and disclaims all liability with respect to Third-Party Services, including the privacy practices, data security processes and other policies related thereto. Customer may enable integrations between the Services and Third-Party Services (each, an “Integration”). By enabling an Integration between the Services and its Third-Party Services, Customer is instructing Sublime to share the Customer Data necessary to facilitate the Integration. Customer is responsible for providing all instructions to any Third-Party Service provider relating to Customer Data. Sublime and Third-Party Service providers are not sub-processors of each other.

5. Intellectual Property Rights
5.1 Sublime Intellectual Property Rights.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Services will require Customer and its personnel to share Customer Data which may include personal data (such as email addresses, message contents, subject, sender, recipients, attachments, IP addresses, and any other information that may be contained in an email (.eml) file processed by the Services) which Sublime will process solely for the purposes of providing the Services and support. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Customer acknowledges and agrees that Sublime may: (a) internally use Customer Data for the purpose of generating Aggregated Anonymized Data; (b) freely use, retain and make available Aggregated Anonymized Data for Sublime’s business purposes (including for purposes of improving, testing, operating, training, promoting, and marketing Sublime’s products and services); and (c) solely where authorized by Customer and shared for such purposes, use Customer Data to improve the performance and security of the Services as further set forth in Section 5.3.

By opting-in or otherwise utilizing any such features (including features labeled as “Share with Sublime” or “LinkAnalysis”), Customer hereby authorizes Sublime’s use and retention of any associated Customer Data (which will be converted to Aggregated Anonymized Data where reasonably practical), or any outputs or derivatives thereof, for such Threat Intelligence purposes. In addition, Customer hereby authorizes Sublime to use security-related learnings derived from suspicious or malicious activity identified in the Services (including phishing emails, malware samples, fraud attempts, attack vectors, and related indicators) for Threat Intelligence purposes.

8.1 By Sublime.

8.3 Indemnification Procedures. The party entitled to seek coverage pursuant to this Section 8 (the “Indemnitee”) shall: (a) promptly notify the other party obligated to provide such indemnification (the “Indemnitor”) in writing of any such Claim (any delay or failure to provide notice will only reduce the Indemnitor’s obligations to the extent materially prejudiced thereby); (b) give sole control of the defense and settlement of any such Claim to the Indemnitor (provided that Indemnitor may not settle any claim in a manner that adversely affects Indemnitee’s rights, imposes any obligation or liability on the Indemnitee or admits liability or wrongdoing on the part of Indemnitee, in each case, without Indemnitee’s prior written consent); and (c) provide all information and assistance reasonably requested by the Indemnitor, at the Indemnitor’s expense, in defending or settling such Claim.
