Hipcall and Customer may be individually referred to as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”.

Hipcall provides services intended solely for business use, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and on the condition that customer accepts and complies with this Agreement. By electronically signing this Agreement, Customer (a) accepts this agreement and agrees that Customer is legally bound by its terms; and (b) represents and warrants that: (i) its representative is 18 years of age or of legal age to enter into a binding agreement; and (ii) has the right, power, and authority to enter into this agreement on behalf of the corporation, governmental organisation, or other legal entity, and to bind such organisation to these terms. If Customer does not agree to the terms of this agreement, neither Customer nor its End Users may download, install, or use the services.

The Parties agree as follows:

1. Definitions

Capitalised terms not defined have the meaning given to them in Attachment A.

2. Ordering and Term

A. Ordering Services

Customer may order Services by submitting electronically an Order in the format provided by Hipcall on the Hipcall website or, for subsequent orders, via the Administrative Portal. The Order will identify the Services requested by Customer together with: (i) the price for each Service; (ii) scheduled Start Date; (iii) and products leased, licenced or sold to Customer, if any. An Order will become binding when it is executed by the Customer and accepted by Hipcall. Hipcall may accept an Order by commencing performance of the requested Services. The Services will begin on the Start Date, as identified in the applicable Order. Customer may purchase additional Services and software through Orders via the Administrative Portal.

B. Service Descriptions

The Service Attachment(s) applicable to Customer’s Services are incorporated into and forms a part of this Agreement. Hipcall is a cloud-based unified communications service that includes enterprise-class voice, fax, text, call handling, mobile apps, and bring your own device capabilities that integrates with a growing list of applications.

C. Term of this Agreement

The term of this Agreement will commence on the Effective Date and continue until the last Order Form is terminated or expires, unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms.

D. Services Term and Automatic Renewal

The Services’ term will begin on the Start Date of the initial Order and continue for the initial term set forth in the initial Order (“Initial Term”). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, recurring Services will automatically renew for successive periods of the same length as the Initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”) unless either Party gives notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days before the expiration of the Initial Term or the then-current Renewal Term. The term of any recurring Services added to the Account after the initial Order is submitted will start on the Start Date of the subsequent Order, will run coterminously with the then-current term of any pre-existing Services, and will be billed on the same billing cycles as the pre-existing Services.

3. Invoicing and Payment

A. Prices and Charges

All prices are identified in British pound sterling, euros or USD, as identified on the website or Administrative Portal. Additional charges may result if Customer activates additional features, exceeds usage thresholds, or purchases additional Services. Customer will be liable for all charges resulting from use of the Services on its Account. Recurring charges for the Services begin on the Start Date and will continue for the Term. Recurring charges (such as charges for Digital Lines, product licences, minute bundles) will, once incurred, remain in effect for the Initial Term (as described in an Order Form) or then-current Renewal Term. Hipcall will provide notice of any proposed increase in such charges no later than thirty (30) days before the end of the Initial Term or then-current Renewal Term, and any such increase will be effective on the first day of the next Renewal Term. Outbound calling rates will be applied based on the rate in effect at the time of use. Customer may locate the currently effective rates in the Administrative Portal.

B. Billing and Payment

All Services must be purchased via valid credit or debit card at the time of purchase. By providing a valid credit or debit card, Customer is expressly authorising all Services and fees to be charged to such payment card, including recurring payments billed on a monthly or annual basis. In addition, Customer’s supplied credit card shall be used for any in-month purchases of additional services and products, or where Customer has exceeded usage or threshold limits, any overage charges. Recurring charges are billed in advance in the frequency set forth in the Order Form, and usage-based and one-time charges are billed monthly in arrears. Credit and debit card payments are subject to the approval of the card issuer, and Hipcall will not be liable in any way if a card issuer refuses to accept a credit or debit card for any reason. Customer is responsible for any credit card chargeback or similar fees for refused or rejected payments that Hipcall is entitled to charge under this Agreement. If the payment card associated with Customer’s Account is declined or fails for any reason, Hipcall will send Customer a notice using the contact information associated with Customer’s Account. Hipcall may continue to attempt charging Customer’s payment card for outstanding charges and additional fees along with any other rights and remedies available to Hipcall under this Agreement, at law or in equity. Unless otherwise stated at the time of purchase or on the Customer’s invoice, payment is due in full, without deduction or set-off, within thirty (30) days of the date on the invoice. Any payment not made when due will be subject to a late payment fee equivalent to the lesser of (i) the rate provided for pursuant to the Late Payment of Commercial Debts (Interest) Act 1998; or (ii) the highest rate allowed by Law. In no event may payment be subject to delays due to Customer internal purchase order process. No discount will be applied by Hipcall for payment within a period shorter than that mentioned herein. Hipcall’s acceptance of late or partial payments (regardless of how they are marked or designated (including without limitation as ‘Paid in Full’, ‘Accord and Satisfaction’, or similarly) will not waive, limit, or prejudice in any way Hipcall’s rights to collect any amount due. Hipcall may terminate the Services and this Agreement for non-payment if any fees or charges are not paid within thirty (30) days of the due date.

C. Taxes

All rates, fees, and charges are exclusive of applicable Taxes, for which Customer is solely responsible. Taxes may vary based on jurisdiction and the Services provided. If any withholding tax is levied on the payments, then Customer must increase the sums paid to Hipcall so that the amount received by Hipcall after the withholding tax is deducted is the full amount Hipcall would have received if no withholding or deduction had been made.

D. Billing Disputes

If a Customer reasonably and in good faith disputes any portion of Hipcall’s charges, it must provide written notice to Hipcall within thirty (30) days of the invoice, identifying the reason for the dispute and the amount being disputed. Customer’s dispute as to any portion of the invoice will not excuse Customer’s obligation to timely pay the undisputed portion of the invoice. Upon resolution, Customer must pay any unpaid amounts within thirty (30) days. Any amounts that are found to be in error resulting in an overpayment by the Customer will be applied as a billing credit against future charges. Customer will be reimbursed any outstanding billing credits at the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

4. Provision of the Service

A. General Terms

Hipcall will provide the Services as described in the relevant Service Attachment. Hipcall may enhance, replace, and/or change the features of the Services, but it will not materially reduce the core features, functions, or security of the Services during the Term without Customer’s consent.

B. Customer Care

Customer must provide all first-tier support to Customer’s End Users. Hipcall may require Customer’s Helpdesk support personnel to complete a series of training courses on Hipcall’s Services. Such training will be provided online by Hipcall at no cost. Hipcall will make second-tier remote support available to Customer’s Helpdesk personnel and/or Account Administrators via Hipcall Customer Care, which will be available to attempt to resolve technical issues with, and answer questions regarding the use of the Services.

C. Acceptable Use Policy

The Services must be used in accordance with Hipcall’s Acceptable Use Policy, available on the website. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Hipcall may act immediately and without notice to suspend or limit the Services if Hipcall reasonably suspects fraudulent or illegal activity in the Customer’s Account, material breach of the Acceptable Use Policy, or use of the Services that could interfere with the functioning of the Hipcall Network, provided such suspension or limitation may only be to the extent reasonably necessary to protect against the applicable condition, activity, or use. Hipcall will promptly remove the suspension or limitation as soon as the condition, activity or use is resolved and mitigated in full. If Customer anticipates legitimate but unusual activity on its Account, Customer should contact Hipcall Support in advance to avoid any Service disruption.

If this Agreement or any Services are terminated for any reason other than as a result of a material breach by Hipcall or as set forth in Section 14(K) (Regulatory and Legal Changes) the Customer must, to the extent permitted by applicable Law and without limiting any other right or remedy of Hipcall, pay within thirty (30) days of such termination all amounts that have accrued prior to such termination, as well as all sums remaining unpaid for the Services for the remainder of the then-current Term plus related taxes and fees.

The Indemnified Party’s failure to comply with the foregoing obligations will not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its defence or indemnification obligations under this Section (Indemnification), except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnified Party will have the right to participate at its own expense in the defence of such third-party claim, including any related settlement negotiations. No such claim may be settled or compromised by the Indemnifying Party without the Indemnified Party’s express written consent (which such consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed), unless such settlement or compromise includes a full and complete release of all claims and actions against the Indemnified Party by each party bringing such third-party claim.

C. Equitable Relief

Any breach of either Party’s IP Rights will cause that Party irreparable harm for which monetary damages will be inadequate and such Party may, in addition to other remedies available at Law or in equity, obtain injunctive relief without the necessity of posting a bond or other security, proof of damages, or similar requirement, in additional to any other relief to which such Party may be entitled under applicable Law.
