Except as otherwise specified in order forms, fees charges shall be made in advance, either annually or in accordance with any different billing frequency stated in the applicable order form. Unless otherwise stated in the order form, invoiced charges are due net 14 days from the invoice date. You are responsible
for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to us and notifying us of any changes to such information.
7.3. If any invoiced amount is not received by us by the due date, then without limiting our rights or remedies, (a) those charges may accrue late interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, and/or (b) we may condition future subscription renewals and order forms on payment terms shorter than those specified in section 7.2.
7.4. If any amount owing by you under this or any other agreement for our services is 30 or more days overdue, we may, without limiting our other rights and remedies, accelerate your unpaid fee obligations under such agreements so that all such obligations become immediately due and payable, and suspend our services to you until such amounts are paid in full. We will give you at least 10 days’ prior notice that your account is overdue, in accordance with section 14.2 (manner of giving notice) for billing notices, before suspending services to you.
7.5. We will not exercise our rights under section 7.3. or 7.4. above if you are disputing the applicable charges reasonably and in good faith and are cooperating diligently to resolve the dispute.
7.6. Our fees do not include any taxes, levies, duties or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction whatsoever (collectively, “Taxes”). You are responsible for paying all taxes associated with your purchases hereunder. If we have the legal obligation to pay or collect taxes for which you are responsible under this section 7.6, we will invoice
you and you will pay that amount unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, we are solely responsible for taxes assessable against us based on our income, property and employees.
7.7. You agree that your purchases are not contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by us regarding future functionality or features.

9. Confidentiality
9.1. “Confidential information” means all information disclosed by a party (“Disclosing party”) to the other party (“Receiving party”), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and the circumstances of disclosure. Your confidential information includes your data; our confidential information includes the services and content; and confidential information of each party includes the terms and conditions of this agreement and all order forms (including pricing), as well as business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party. However, confidential information does not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the disclosing party, (ii) was known to the receiving party prior to its disclosure by the disclosing party without breach of any obligation owed to the disclosing party, (iii) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the disclosing party, or (iv) was

Neither party will disclose the terms of this agreement or any order form to any third party other than its affiliates, legal counsel and accountants without the other party’s prior written consent, provided that a party that makes any such disclosure to its affiliate, legal counsel or accountants will remain responsible for such affiliate’s, legal counsel’s or accountant’s compliance with this “Confidentiality” section.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, we may disclose the terms of this agreement and any applicable order form to a subcontractor or non- AFG application provider to the extent necessary to perform our obligations to you under this agreement, under terms of confidentiality materially as protective as set forth herein.
9.3. The receiving party may disclose confidential information of the disclosing party to the extent compelled by law to do so, provided the receiving party gives the disclosing party prior notice of the compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the disclosing party’s cost, if the disclosing party wishes to contest the disclosure. If the receiving party is compelled by law to disclose the disclosing party’s confidential information as part of a civil proceeding to which the disclosing party is a party, and the disclosing party is not contesting the disclosure, the disclosing party will reimburse the receiving party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to that confidential information.
