Proprietary Information of the Company includes non-public information regarding the Service’s features, functionality, and performance. Proprietary Information of Customer includes non-public data provided by Customer to the Company to enable the provision of the Services (“Customer Data”). The Receiving Party agrees: (i)to take reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information, and (ii)not to use (except in performance of the Services or as otherwise permitted herein) or divulge to any third person any such Proprietary Information. The Disclosing Party agrees that the preceding shall not apply concerning any information after one(1) year following the disclosure thereof or any information that the Receiving Party can document (a)is or becomes generally available to the public, or (b)was in its possession or known by it before receipt from the Disclosing Party, or (c)was rightfully disclosed to it without restriction by a third party, or (d)was independently developed without the use of any Proprietary Information of the Disclosing Party or (e)is required to be disclosed by law.

4. Payment of Fees

4.1 Customer will pay Company the applicable fees described in the Order Form for the Services. Should Customer elect to use the Services in a manner that exceeds the scope defined within the Order Form or otherwise requires the payment of additional fees (per the terms of this Agreement), Customer shall incur additional Fees at the Company’s then-current rate for such additional Services. 

4.2 Term, Renewal, and Invoicing: The term of this Agreement consists of the Initial Term, as specified in the Order Form, and any subsequent Renewal Term(s), which will automatically renew for the same duration unless otherwise specified. The first month of the Initial Term is prorated to align with the billing cycle. The first full month following the prorated period defines the starting month of the Initial Term. The start and end dates of the term will follow the invoicing cycle, with invoices issued from the 2nd of each month to the 2nd of the following month.

Example: If the customer starts the service on September 16, 2024, the first month will be prorated from September 16 to October 2, 2024. The first full month of the Initial Term will then run from October 2 to November 2, 2024. If the Initial Term is six months, the Agreement will continue until April 2, 2025. Subsequent Renewal Terms, unless otherwise specified, will follow this same billing cycle, with each new term beginning on the 2nd of the month.

4.3 Pricing Amendments: The Company reserves the right to amend the pricing terms (including applicable fees) for any Renewal Term, provided written notice is given to the Customer, unless a specific contract with a set duration is in place. Any changes will apply to the following term after the current one ends. For inquiries, please contact the Company’s customer support at finance@eva.guru.

4.4 Billing and Payment Terms: The Company will issue invoices based on the contract. Unless a specific payment term is outlined in the contract, payment is due immediately upon receipt. If payment for Platform and Recovery Services is not received within 30 days, services will be suspended. If payment is not received within 60 days, all services will trigger the cancellation of the next term and suspension of Managed Services. Invoices will continue to be sent to the Customer until the end of the current term by the cancellation. A finance charge of 4.3% per month (or the maximum allowed by law) will apply to any outstanding balance. The Company may recover attorney’s fees and costs for collection, and the Customer is responsible for all applicable taxes.

4.5 Payment Methods: To use the Service, you must provide one or more authorized payment methods. We do not accept payment via physical checks. Please use one of our accepted digital payment methods for all transactions. You authorize us to charge these methods for any fees under this agreement. You are still responsible for the outstanding amount if the Company cannot collect the fees owed. Failure to pay may result in suspension or termination of services. Some payment methods may incur additional processing fees from their issuers, which the Company will specify on the invoice as service surcharges. 

4.6 Refunds: No refunds or credits will be provided for partially used periods, and all payments are non-refundable. If you cancel, you can still access the Services until your term ends. You agree not to initiate a chargeback of payments through your payment provider. Doing so will be deemed a material breach of this Section, and the Company may hold you liable for such action, including recovery of its attorney’s fees and costs.

4.7 Upgrades: Certain subscription packages on the website’s pricing page are subject to potential upgrades. The customer acknowledges and agrees that the subscription fee for such packages may be contingent upon fluctuations in the customer’s revenue. In the event of an increase in the customer’s revenue, the customer agrees to pay any associated surplus by the terms outlined on the website and within the subscription agreement. 

4.8 Subscription Suspension Due to External Factors: If services are suspended due to external factors beyond the control of both the Customer and the Company, the suspension may last for a maximum of two months. The suspension will not alter the overall contract duration; however, the current term end date will be postponed by the length of the suspension. No invoices will be issued to the customer during the suspension period.

4.9 Company Formation Fees: As part of the Company Formation Services, the Customer agrees to pay the applicable fees described in the Order Form. These fees include, but are not limited to, entity registration, tax identification number application, and related administrative services. The Company Formation Fees cover the initial registration process. Any annual renewal fees (e.g., state filing fees, registered agent fees, or other recurring compliance costs) are the sole responsibility of the Customer and must be paid directly to the relevant authorities or to the Company if invoiced as part of a managed service. If the Customer opts for renewal services related to company formation, the Customer shall pay the renewal fees as invoiced by the Company at the applicable rate for such services. Failure to pay the renewal fees on time may result in a lapse of compliance with relevant state or federal regulations. The Company is not liable for any consequences arising from such lapses.

5. Term and Termination

5.1 Term and Renewal The term of this Agreement consists of two parts: the Initial Term, as specified in the Order Form, and the Renewal Term(s). The Agreement will automatically renew for additional periods, equal in duration to the Renewal Term, even if the Initial Term was different. Each renewal period will be the same length as the previous one unless otherwise specified. The start and end dates of the term will be determined following clause 4.2 of this Agreement.

5.2 Termination by Customer: The Customer may not terminate the current term but may request the cancellation of the following (Renewal) term during the current term. To cancel, the Customer must provide notice via email to the assigned Key Account Director, Cluster Leader, POD Leader, Brand Manager, or through the Eva Platform. Eva will offer a feedback meeting to address concerns and propose solutions if the request is made, though the Customer can choose whether to proceed with or cancel the request. If the current term is month-to-month, cancellation will take effect at the end of the current term, after a two-month exit period. For terms longer than one month, the cancellation will take effect at the end of the current term, following a one-month exit period.

5.3 Termination Due to Dissatisfaction: If the Customer is dissatisfied with the results of a month-to-month service due to promised but not delivered outcomes, the Customer may request a cancellation call with Customer Success to discuss and set KPIs that can be achieved within a 30-day cure period. If no resolution is completed within the cure period, the Customer’s contract will be canceled without requiring two full months of exit notice.

5.4  Amazon Reimbursement and Vendor Recovery Services: If the Customer revokes access to the Marketplace platform (such as Amazon, Walmart, or similar) and the Company is unable to perform activities, such as Amazon reimbursement services, during the cancellation period, the Company will calculate the monthly loss. This calculation will be based on the average monthly invoice of the service over the last three months. Subsequently, the Company will charge the Customer for two months of the invoice amount, determined by the calculated monthly loss. 

5.5 Amazon Reimbursement Clawback An Amazon reimbursement clawback occurs when Amazon reclaims funds previously reimbursed to a seller. In such cases, the Customer may request a refund from Eva for any clawback amounts within 60 days of Eva issuing an invoice related to that reimbursement. After these 60 days, Eva is not responsible for processing any refund requests associated with clawbacks.
