IT IS AGREED AS FOLLOWS:

1. DEFINITIONS

1.33.1    provide the Platform Services to the Employer, as further described in clause 2; 1.33.2    provide the Support Services, as further described in clause 3; 1.33.3    if so agreed between Parties in writing, provide the Consultancy and Other Services, as further described in clause 4 and in the agreement between the Parties.  

2. PLATFORM SERVICES

2.1 General 2.1.1 The Employer shall choose which subscription level (“Subscription Level”) to subscribe to during the Term. The credits and Services rendered within each of those Subscription Levels are set forth on the online order form and on the relevant information page on the website. 2.1.2 Employer has the right to upgrade (i.e. add more functionality) or downgrade (i.e. deduct functionality) the Subscription Level chosen on the online order form. An upgrade of the Subscription Level will be effective as soon as the payment for the upgraded Subscription Level has been received. A downgrade will become effective after the Term of the payment for the former Subscription Level has expired. In both cases, the Term of the Agreement will recommence as from the moment of the downgrade or upgrade becoming effective. A request to upgrade or downgrade is done through written request issued by the Employer to Talentsquare and as accepted by Talentsquare. 2.1.3 The Employer agrees that all data uploaded to the Platform (in particular all CVs), will be processed by each Party in accordance with the Legal Agreement and the Data Processing Agreement. 2.1.4 The Charges for the Platform Services are dependent upon the Subscription Level chosen, and are set forth in clause 11 and will be indicated on the online order form and on the relevant information page of the website which Employer acknowledges having consulted. 2.1.5 Without the approval of the Employer, and provided it has no significant involvement in terms of personal data protection, Talentsquare shall have the right at any moment to (i) activate a new or improved version of the Platform; (ii) add additional functionality to the Platform; (iii) to modify internal or external functioning of the Platform, provided similar functionality is kept; or (iv) move its servers or networks to other locations or data centers, within the European Union. Talentsquare shall undertake reasonable efforts to ensure when performing such actions, that the impact on the use for the Employer and its Users is limited.   2.2 Service levels 2.2.1 During the Term, Talentsquare shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Platform (i) is available to the Employer 99.5% (not including any scheduled maintenance) of the time in any calendar month; and (ii) shall have reasonable performance and response timing. The Employer recognizes, however, that this availability, performance and response timing is subject to a variety of interdependent factors (such as the availability of telecommunication links, the interaction between software of various parties, network congestion on the Internet, etc.), which are substantially out of the control of Talentsquare. 2.2.2 The Employer acknowledges that the access to and use of the Platform may be suspended from time to time due to maintenance. To the extent possible, Talentsquare shall schedule planned downtime outside working days. 2.2.3 With respect to versions of the Platform that are made available by Talentsquare as a “beta”, “pilot” or testing version, the Employer acknowledges and accepts that: (i) such version of the Platform is made available “as is”, and likely contains errors; (ii) none of the warranties set forth in this Agreement apply; (iii) all quality levels and warranties imposed by law are excluded to the maximum extent allowed by law; and (iv) Talentsquare shall not be liable for any contractual or extracontractual damage caused by such Platform, to the maximum extent allowed by law.

3. SUPPORT SERVICES

3.1 Talentsquare will, during the Term, take all reasonable commercial measures within reasonable limits for making the necessary correction of any reproducible non-conformity of the Platform (“Defect”). 3.2 The correction of Defects will, at Talentsquare’s sole discretion, consist in the following remedial service: (i) provision of a workaround; (ii) temporary correction (patches); (iii) correction via delivery of a new version; or (iv) adaptation of the documentation without reducing the functionality of the Platform. 3.3 The Employer shall closely co-operate with Talentsquare in order to allow Talentsquare to provide the Support Services, such as (but not limited to): (i) report problems timely and according to the procedure communicated by Talentsquare; (ii) provide sufficient documentation and information to enable Talentsquare to investigate and, if required, to reproduce the problem; (iii) provide reasonable assistance to Talentsquare in diagnosing the problem; or (iv) provide Talentsquare with access to its installation for remote diagnosis. 3.4 The Support Services do not cover any intervention resulting from any reason not assignable to the Platform, such as (but not limited to): (i) Defects resulting from erroneous, improper, non-authorised or unsupported use of the Platform; (ii) Defects resulting from a fault of the Employer or any third party; (iii) interventions resulting from an accident, fire, natural physical disaster, hardware failure and in general any reason not associated with the Platform; (iv) Defects resulting from the interfacing with other software; and (v) recovery of lost or corrupted data. 3.5 Talentsquare shall provide Helpdesk Services, which consist of First-line Support and/or Second-line Support. The Helpdesk Services can be reached by the live chat support directly integrated to Talentsquare either by email: info@talentsquare.com or, if applicable, by telephone reachable at +32 2 880 40 86. 3.6 The Subscription Level shall indicate whether the Helpdesk Services provided by Talentsquare are accessible by telephone.

All dates will be extended by a reasonable period if any delay or stoppage is caused by any act or omission of the Employer. 4.6 Upon completion of the Deliverables, if relevant for the Consultancy and Other Services concerned and if agreed between the Parties, Talentsquare shall make the Deliverables available to the Employer for testing. The Employer shall then perform acceptance tests and verify whether the Deliverables comply with the Specifications. 4.6.1 In case a noncompliance is detected by the Employer, the Employer shall notify Talentsquare and state in sufficient detail how the Deliverables did not conform to the Specifications. Talentsquare shall then use its reasonable business efforts to correct any deficiencies in the Deliverables and shall require the Employer to re-run the acceptance tests. 4.6.2 When the acceptance tests indicate that the Deliverables comply with the Specifications, the Employer shall notify Talentsquare thereof in writing. This event marks the end of the Acceptance Procedure and constitutes the formal acceptance of the Deliverables. 4.6.3 Any noncompliance of the Deliverables which is detected after the formal acceptance of the Deliverables or after the Deliverables have been used in a production environment, shall be corrected at the then current rates of Talentsquare and shall be invoiced separately. 4.7 The modification of the Consultancy and Other Services requires the agreement of both Parties, specifying the modifications or the effects (in particular technical and financial). Until such agreement, Talentsquare shall continue its Consultancy and Other Services in compliance with the Agreement in force. 4.8 Clause 2.2.3 also applies, mutatis mutandis, to “beta” / testing versions of any Deliverables.

Specifically, Talentsquare does not warrant that the Platform will be error free or will perform in an uninterrupted manner.

If none of these options are commercially practicable, Talentsquare shall refund the Charges paid for the (current license period of the) Platform or the Deliverables.

10. CHARGES

10.1 The Charges for each Subscription Level and for the Support Services are set forth on the online order form and the relevant information page on the website. Charges for Consultancy and Other Services are as agreed between the Parties. 10.2 There will be no refunds or Credits for partial terms (month, quarter, half-year, and full-year) of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for terms unused with an open Account unless outlined in a separate agreement between the Parties. 10.3 Any dispute regarding an invoice must be lodged with Talentsquare in writing within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the invoice. Once this period has expired, the dispute will be considered as inadmissible and the invoice will be deemed to have been accepted irrevocably and in full. 10.4 The Employer accepts that Talentsquare has the possibility to send invoices electronically. The Employer acknowledges that it is responsible for the appropriate storage of the electronic invoices and for the fulfilment of all other legal requirements with respect to receiving electronic invoices. 10.5 Talentsquare registers access to Talentsquare Services for invoicing requirements and so any problems can be detected. It keeps a log up to date in which it only stores data relating to the use of the service provided. This log can be reproduced on paper or any other type of information medium. It provides evidence that access has been gained to Talentsquare Services, unless the Employer can prove the contrary. Electronic messages, connections, operations on the network and transactions between the Employer and Talentsquare shall be proven using the logs and transaction files kept electronically by Talentsquare. The Employer accepts the evidential value of this data. This capability of proof does not prevent the parties from each providing their own proof using permitted legal methods.

11. PAYMENT

11.1 The Employer shall pay Talentsquare the Charges described in clause 10. License Fees will be invoiced by Talentsquare in accordance with the Subscription Level chosen (monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or yearly). Consultancy and Other Services are invoiced separately by Talentsquare. 11.2 Talentsquare can index the applicable License Fee annually, three months prior to the anniversary of this Agreement, based on the following formula: Vn = Vo ( 0.2 + 0.8 Sn/So) whereby: Vn = the new License Fee Vo = the previous License Fee Sn = the index of the national wage costs (referteloonkost landsgemiddelde) as published by Agoria (the Belgian trade association of technology companies) three months before the anniversary of this Agreement So = the index of the national wage costs (referteloonkost landsgemiddelde) as published by Agoria three months before the previous indexation. 11.3 A valid credit card is required for subscribing to a Subscription Level. Licence Fees are charged in advance, are non-refundable and are invoiced and deducted from the credit card with the periodicity as stated in the order form (monthly, quarterly, half-yearly or yearly). Charges for Consultancy and Other Services are charged in accordance with what has been agreed between the Parties, in absence of which the Charges will be payable in advance. 11.4 For any upgrade in Subscription Level, Employer’s credit card provided will automatically be charged at the point in time when Employer upgrades. Downgrading the Service will not result in any refund and may cause the loss of access to content, features, or capacity of the Account. Talentsquare shall not be liable for any such loss. 11.5 In case the Employer does not have a valid credit card, a bank transfer can be performed upon agreement and reception of an invoice or purchase order sent by Talentsquare. A minimum of half-year usage of the Service has to be requested in order for the purchase order to be considered. Downgrading the Service will again not result in any refund and may cause the loss of access to content, features, or capacity of Employer’s Account. Talentsquare shall not be liable for any such loss. 11.6 In the event the Employer purchases additional credits, Talentsquare will invoice the Employer on the date of such purchase (or any later date as Talentsquare sees fit). 11.7 Unless payment has already been made (e.g. in case of online payment of the License Fee), all invoices are payable within the thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the invoice. In case of late payment, a monthly interest of 1% will be charged automatically and without prior notice. In case of non-payment (two (2) months after due date) the invoice will be, after reminder by registered mail, raised by 15%, on top of legal costs. 11.8 In the event of any failure of the Employer to timely make the payments indicated above (e.g. in case insufficient funds are provided on the bank account of the Employer), then Talentsquare can, without in any way affecting its other rights hereunder: (i) demand that all outstanding invoices become due at once; (ii) suspend or terminate the Services, including the License; or (iii) only allow Employer to access the basic non-paying Services (without Employer being entitled to any compensation or damages). 11.9 Except if otherwise indicated, the amounts payable to Talentsquare under this Agreement do not include: (i) any sales, use, excise, import or export, value added or similar tax; (ii) the cost of any bug fixes or software maintenance after the acceptance of the Deliverables in accordance with clause 4 (unless if such bug fixes or software maintenance is included in the Support Services); (iii) costs of travel and lodging; or (iv) out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Talentsquare.

12. RISK ALLOCATION

12.1 Without prejudice to clauses 13.2 and 13.3, both Parties contractual and extra-contractual liability is limited to the aggregate amount of the payments made by the Employer to Talentsquare in the twelve (12) months preceding the incident that gave rise to the liability. 12.2 In no event will Parties be contractually or extracontractually liable for any indirect or consequential damage, such as (but not limited to) loss of profits, loss of anticipated savings, loss of business, loss of opportunity, loss of revenue, loss of time, loss of goodwill or injury to reputation, third party claims or losses suffered by third parties. 12.3 This clause 13 shall not apply in case of fraud or wilful intent.

13. TERM AND TERMINATION

13.1 The Agreement commences as from the moment of Employer submitting the online order (“Effective Date”) and shall remain in effect for a period as chosen by the Employer on the online order form (e.g. a month, a quarter, half-year or year) (the “Initial Period”). 13.2 After the Initial Period, this Agreement shall be subject to automatic renewal for subsequent periods of the same duration as the Initial Period, until this Agreement is terminated by either Party as described below. 13.3 Either Party may terminate this Agreement for cause, without involvement of a judge in case (i) the other Party commits a material breach of this Agreement that is not cured within thirty (30) calendar days (or cannot be cured at all) after notice thereof from the non-breaching Party, whereby any infringement of the License shall in any case be considered as a material breach; or (ii) in case of cessation of payment, bankruptcy or liquidation of the other Party (iii) in the case the other party would not use the platform for the purposes defined in the legal agreement. 13.4 Employer can terminate its Account for convenience. Employer is solely responsible for properly cancelling its Account. An email or phone request to cancel Employer’s Account is not considered cancellation. Employer can cancel its Account at any time by clicking on the Account link (visible after Employer logs in) in the navigation bar at the top of the screen and finding the “My Settings” link, followed by the “Want to close your account?” link. This is the only way in which Employer may cancel its Account, without prejudice to clause 13.3. All of Employer’s content will be immediately deleted from the Service upon cancellation. This information cannot be recovered once Employer’s Account is cancelled. If Employer cancels its Service before the end of the current paid up period (month, quarter, half-year, and full-year), such cancellation will take effect immediately and Employer will not be charged again, nor will Employer receive a refund for the unused portion of the payment period. 13.5 In the event the Agreement expires or is terminated for convenience then, without prejudice to the other rights and obligations that may apply to either Party, the Employer shall pay the amounts due up to the time of termination. 13.6 In the event the Agreement expires or is terminated, the Employer has the right to have their information deleted from the system, without further dispute.

14. CHANGES

14.1 In view of the service provision by Talentsquare and also given the further development of the Platform, the Agreement (including the contractual stipulations, the rates, etc.) may be subject to modifications by Talentsquare. 14.2 In the event of such changes, the Employer will be informed of the change. During a period of one (1) month after the announced change, the Employer has the opportunity to terminate the Agreement, without such termination giving rise to the reimbursement of monies already paid. If the Employer does not exercise this termination option within the aforementioned period, the Employer will be deemed to have accepted the modification.

15. MISCELLANEOUS
