1 Services

1.1 CULTURE AMP SERVICES

During the Subscription Term, we will provide you with the worldwide (subject to applicable export and import laws and regulations), non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable (except pursuant to a permitted assignee under these General Terms), royalty-free right for its Users to access and use the Services as described in your Service Order(s). You may order additional services at any time by contacting our Customer Success team. We will invoice you for any additional services you order after the start of the Term at the time those additional Services are ordered. 

1.2 CHANGES TO SERVICES

We continually change and improve our Services. Culture Amp may alter the Services at any time without prior notice. We will provide you with reasonable prior notice if we make a change to the Services resulting in an overall material decrease in functionality of the Services. If we do make a change that results in a material decrease in functionality, you may terminate your Subscription under clause 8.3.

1.3 SUSPENSION OF SERVICES

We may limit or suspend the Services from time to time at our discretion (for example, to perform scheduled maintenance or in the event of a security emergency). If Culture Amp limits or suspends the Services, we will give you reasonable advance notice so that you can plan around it. However, there may be some situations, such as security emergencies, where it may not be practicable for us to give you advance notice. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to narrow the scope and duration of the suspension or limitation as is needed to resolve the issue that prompted such action.

We may suspend your access to or use of the Services following thirty (30) days’ written notice if Customer is in material breach of this Agreement or any Service Order (including but not limited to Customer’s failure to pay Culture Amp the fees for the Services as set forth in a Service Order).

1.4 THIRD PARTY SERVICES

If you use any third party service with the Services (for example, BambooHR, Namely, Slack or Workday integrations or a web browser), you acknowledge that third party service may access or use the Customer Data. Culture Amp will not be responsible for any act or omission of the third party, including such third party’s use of Customer Data. Culture Amp does not warrant or support any such third party service, and you should contact that third party for any issues arising from your use of the third party service.
