These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) are entered into by and between BirdEye,
Inc. or its Affiliate identified in the Order Form or Statement of Work
(“BirdEye”), with its principal place of business at 2479 E Bayshore Rd, Suite

Form or Statement of Work (“Client”). The parties agree as follows:

Quick Links
 * Terms & Conditions
 * Privacy Policy
 * Generative AI Policy
 * Acceptable Use Policy

1. TERMS & CONDITIONS

1.1 Provision of Services. BirdEye will provide its subscription service through
the BirdEye Customer Experience & Reputation Marketing platform (the
“Subscription Service”), and any professional services in relation to the
implementation of the Subscription Service (the “Professional Services”; the
Subscription Services and Professional Services may hereinafter be generally
referred to as the “Services”) in accordance with these Terms and any terms and
conditions provided for in a customer agreement, reseller agreement or order
form for the Subscription Service (all such documents maybe be referred to as an
“Order Form”) or a statement of work for the delivery of Professional Services
(“Statement of Work”). Client understands, acknowledges and agrees that
onboarding and implementation of the Services may take up to 2 hours over a 4
week period of time. Client’s reasonable and timely participation in the
onboarding process is a vital component of delivering the Services and any
delays in this process caused by Client will not affect the duration of any
agreement and will not provide a basis for non-payment or termination.

1.2 Third Party Sites. To the extent that Client requests or otherwise cause the
Subscription Service to be integrated with, or make use of data from, other
websites or services (e.g., Facebook, Google+ and Twitter) (“Third Party
Sites”), Client agrees that BirdEye does not have control over the terms of use,
privacy policies, operation, intellectual property rights, performance, service
levels or content of any Third Party Sites; and BirdEye disclaims all
responsibility and liability for any use of Third Party Sites. The Services
incorporate or make the use of certain third party software (“Third Party
Software”), which is licensed subject to the terms and conditions of the third
party licensing such Third Party Software. Nothing in these Terms limits
Client's rights under, or grants Client rights that supersede, the terms and
conditions of any applicable license for such Third Party Software. Such Third
Party Software includes but is not limited to the following software and
services and by use of the Services, Client agrees to be bound by the terms of
said Third Party Software: Google https://policies.google.com/terms?hl=en-US,
Facebook https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms, Twitter
https://www.twitter.com/tos, Youtube https://www.youtube.com/t/terms, Twilio
https://www.twilio.com/legal/tos, LinkedIn
https://www.linkedin.com/legal/user-agreement.

Using Third Parties For Reviews. Client understands that in order for its
customers, end users or others to leave a review about its product or services
on Google, Facebook, Twitter and similar third party sites, it may be required
to have an active, registered account on the relevant third party platform.

1.3 Subscription Service Content. During Client's use of the Subscription
Service, Client may receive data generated by the Subscription Service. Client
may display such generated data on Client's website but may not modify the data
or otherwise use it for any other purposes, including without limitation
analytics purposes, without BirdEye’s prior express written approval. For
purposes of clarification, data generated by the Subscription Service may
include data and content that is owned or licensed by a third party, and
Client's use of such third party data and content is limited further by such
third party’s applicable license terms and web site terms of use. BirdEye hereby
disclaims responsibility and/or liability in full for Client’s use of any such
third party data and content under these Terms.

1.4 Obligations With Respect to Third Party Sites. When using the Services,
Client agrees to adhere to the Terms of Service of all major review sites. This
includes but not limited to Google, Facebook, Yelp, and other review sites.

 * Review gating: Client's use of the BirdEye platform cannot implement any form
   of review gating. Review gating is a process where companies send a message
   to customers asking if their experience was positive or negative. Those who
   had a positive experience are directed to leave an online review. Those who
   had a negative experience are typically sent to a form to leave comments that
   are not made public.
 * When soliciting reviews using the BirdEye platform, Client must provide all
   recipients the same options to provide feedback, regardless of their
   sentiment. This applies to review requests sent via standard review
   templates, custom email templates, and surveys.
 * Sites prohibiting solicitation of reviews: Client's use of the BirdEye
   platform will fully comply with sites such as Yelp that prohibit review
   solicitation, and Client will not misuse the BirdEye platform to bypass
   review sites’ policies.
 * Failure to comply with 3rd Party Review site policies: If Client attempts to
   circumvent the Terms of Service of 3rd party review sites, BirdEye will
   notify Client and allow Client 30 days to take corrective action. Should
   Client fail to comply within the 30-day notice period, Client's account will
   be suspended from BirdEye.

1.5 TCPA and 10DLC Compliance.

a. TCPA: To the extent required by law and as applicable to the parties, the
parties shall comply with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. § 227
(the “TCPA”). Client will be solely responsible for complying with any messaging
consent obligations under the TCPA and TSR in the course of accessing and using
the BirdEye Services. Client is responsible for obtaining explicit consent(s)
from any and all third parties (including Client's customers) to send and
receive SMS and/or emails using the BirdEye Services. BirdEye shall have the
same obligation to obtain third party consent for all parties from which it is
directly obtaining their phone number(s).

b. 10DLC: You understand that if you are using certain SMS-related Services, you
are responsible for complying with A2P 10DLC, including but not limited to
registration and obtaining customer opt in. BirdEye reserves the right to pass
carrier 10DLC fees on to you which you agree BirdEye may collect from you using
your authorized payment method. Client authorizes BirdEye to act as its legal
representative in the 10DLC registration process when such representation is
necessary to provide or enhance the Services.

You understand and agree that in order to use any texting or text-based products
or features in or through the Services, you must maintain your A2P 10DLC
registration by paying the one time registration fee and ongoing text (or,
“campaign”) fees for the duration of your use of any such Services. If you are
entering into an online or self-serve contract for a small business, the
registration fee and ongoing text fees may be combined in one line item on your
contract shown as “Carrier Texting Fees”.

Each party is liable for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
other party from and against any and all damages, liabilities, judgments, fees,
fines, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the
non-breaching party arising from any claims, demands or legal actions made
against it resulting from Client's breach of this Section 1.5.



1.6 Account Protection. In the event that Client become aware that the security
of Client's login information has been compromised or breached, Client must
immediately deactivate such account or change the account’s login credentials.
Additionally, Client shall promptly deactivate the account or change the login
credentials for any individual (e.g., former employee) that no longer is
authorized by Client to access the Subscription Service.

1.7 Fair Use. BirdEye’s priority to its customers is to keep the Services
available and running at optimal speed, which requires each customer to use the
Services fairly and reasonably so as to not affect the access or use by other
customers. The Services include broad access to a variety of resources such as
bandwidth, API requests, and storage which are not unlimited (unless expressly
stated as such in a Customer Agreement, Order Form or other agreement) or the
overuse of which would affect the stability of the BirdEye platform, including
but not limited to the Services, which is why we have this fair use clause
(“Fair Use Policy” or “FUP”). Fair use will be considered the processing of 3
times the average number of requests or processed transactions per Location (as
that term is defined in a Customer Agreement, Order Form or other written
agreement) for other BirdEye customers in the same or similar industry. If
BirdEye determines Client's use of the Services is in violation of its Fair Use
Policy, in its sole reasonable discretion, it may take unilateral action
regarding Client's use of the Services including, but not limited to, limiting
the frequency of access to the Services or limiting the number of processed
requests through the Services in order to bring usage in line with this FUP.
BirdEye also reserves the right to invoice Client for use of the Services in
violation of the FUP. Client understands, acknowledge and agree that BirdEye
will have no liability to Client or any of Client's users for enforcing this FUP
and enforcement will not affect Client's obligations under these terms which
includes the payment of fees for the Services.

1.8 Client’s Restrictions on Use of Services.Client agrees not to do any of the
following while using the Site, Services or BirdEye Content:

 * Access, post, submit or transmit any text, graphics, images, software, music,

   email, junk mail, spam, chain letters or other form of solicitation;

   publication, distribution or transmission of defamatory material or content;
 * Send any emails or text communications for purposes of marketing or promoting
   non-federally legalized products or services or if such communications are
   barred by relevant industry associations. For example, Client will not send
   text messages through the Services if Client is in the cannabis industry, the
   firearms business or any other illegal or association-prohibited industry;

   trademark, logo URL or product name without BirdEye’s express written

BirdEye will have the right to investigate and prosecute violations of any of
the above, including intellectual property rights infringement and Site and
Services security issues, to the fullest extent of the law. BirdEye may involve
and cooperate with law enforcement authorities in prosecuting users who violate
these Terms. Client acknowledges that BirdEye has no obligation to monitor
Client's access to or use of the Site, Services or BirdEye Content or to review
or edit any User Content, but has the right to do so for the purpose of
operating the Site and Services, to ensure Client's compliance with these Terms,
or to comply with applicable law or the order or requirement of a court,
administrative agency or other governmental body. BirdEye reserves the right, at
any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to any BirdEye

2. FEES AND PAYMENT

2.1 Fees. Client shall pay BirdEye the undisputed fees in the currency and as of

Form or Statement of Work. All fees are exclusive of applicable sales, excise,
value-added or use taxes. Except for income taxes levied on BirdEye’s net
income, Client shall pay or reimburse BirdEye for all national, federal,
provincial, state, local or other taxes and assessments of any jurisdiction,
which are legally payable by Client for charges set, services performed or to be

entitled to deduct the amount of any such taxes, duties or assessments from
payments made to BirdEye under these Terms. This provision shall survive the

(e.g. a deficiency assessment by a taxing authority as a result of an audit
after the termination of these Terms). Client will notify BirdEye of any invoice
dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice, at which time the parties
will engage in good faith efforts to resolve the dispute.

2.2 Late Payments. Client's failure to pay undisputed fees when due constitutes

of the following: (i) charge Client a late fee on the unpaid balance at the
lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum lawful rate
permitted by applicable law, rounded to the next highest whole month and
compounded monthly; and/or (ii) suspend Client's access to the Subscription
Service and/or the delivery of the Professional Services. BirdEye’s suspension

the agreement will auto renew in compliance with applicable law as further set
forth herein. Unless otherwise noted in the Order Form or Statement of Work, any

Client and Client's end users in connection with Client's use of the
Subscription Service (e.g., Personal Data, submitted content, product

Client understands, acknowledges and agrees that BirdEye may only be able to
access its Client Data through managed services (or, “Managed Services”) in
order to provide the Services. In order for BirdEye to perform the Managed
Services, Client agrees to provide BirdEye with login credentials to its CRM.
Furthermore, the Managed Services process involves a member of the BirdEye team
logging into the CRM, downloading a report that will include Client Data and
then uploading said Client Data to the BirdEye platform. If being utilized, the
Managed Services will be performed weekly as a default although Client can
request that the timing be adjusted to as short a time as 48 hours upon
reasonable request. All personnel are subject to in-depth, annual privacy and
data security training and assessments.

3.3.2 BirdEye Data. All data generated, stored or collected by BirdEye

BirdEye Data generated by the Subscription Service, subject to Section 3.3.3 of
these Terms.

3.3.3 Third Party Data. Data generated by the Subscription Service may include
data and content that is owned or licensed by a third party, and Client's use of
such third party data and content is limited by such third party’s applicable
license terms and web site terms of use. BirdEye hereby disclaims responsibility
and/or liability in full for Client’s use of any such third party data and
content under this Terms. Such third party data and content will be promptly
destroyed, and Client shall otherwise no longer have access to such third party
data and content, upon termination of these Terms or termination of the
applicable Order Form or Statement of Work.

3.4 Privacy Policy; Personal Data; Security.The collection, use and storage of
Personal Data (as defined in the DPA) through BirdEye’s website is governed by
BirdEye’s privacy policy located at Privacy Policy, (“Privacy Policy”). If
Client's use of the Subscription Service requires BirdeEye to process Personal
Data, BirdEye will process Personal Data subject to BirdEye’s Data Processing
Addendum located at https://cdn2.birdeye.com/version2/pages/terms/BirdeyeDPA.pdf
(“DPA”). The Privacy Policy and DPA, are incorporated into these Terms in their
entirety.

During the term of this Agreement, BirdEye shall maintain a security program
materially in accordance with industry standards that is designed to: (i) ensure
the security of Client Data; (ii) protect against threats or hazards to the
security or integrity of Client Data; and (iii) prevent unauthorized access to
Client Data. If either party believes that there has been a security breach
involving Client Data, such party must promptly notify the other party, unless
legally prohibited from doing so. Additionally, each party will reasonably
assist the other party in mitigating any potential damage arising from any such
security breach. As soon as reasonably practicable after any such security
breach, BirdEye shall conduct a root cause analysis and, upon request, will
share the results of its analysis and its remediation plan with Client.

3.5 Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means any information
disclosed by either party to the other party, either directly or indirectly, in
writing, orally, or by inspection of tangible objects (i) that the disclosing
party identifies as confidential or proprietary; or (ii) that reasonably appears
to be confidential or proprietary because of legends or other markings, the
circumstances of disclosure, or the nature of the information itself (for
avoidance of doubt, neither party shall be required to identify information as
confidential in order to avail itself of the protections set forth in this
Section 3.5). The parties acknowledge that the Subscription Service and
Professional Services, the terms of these Terms and any Order Form or Statement
of Work, and any other proprietary or confidential information provided to the
other party constitute valuable proprietary information and trade secrets of
BirdEye and the Client, respectfully. Each party agrees to preserve the
confidential nature of the other party’s Confidential Information by retaining
and using the Confidential Information in trust and confidence, solely for its
use as permitted and in connection with these Terms, and by using the same
degree of protection that such party uses to protect similar proprietary and
confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care. Each party
will have the right to seek an injunction to prevent any breach or continued
breach of this section. The receiving party agrees to promptly report any
breaches of this section to the disclosing party. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

becomes, through no act or failure to act on the part of the receiving party,
generally known or available to the public without breach of these Terms by the
receiving party; (ii) was independently developed, or otherwise acquired, by the
receiving party without restriction as to use or disclosure before receiving

third party authorized to make such disclosure.

infringement to the extent it arises from: (i) infringing matter supplied or
developed solely by Client; (ii) unauthorized modifications or uses of the
Subscription Service; or (iii) Client's acts or omissions not in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement. If Client's use of the Subscription Service is

indemnification obligation, except to the extent that failure has materially
prejudiced the indemnitor’s ability to defend the claim); (b) sole control of
the defense and settlement by the indemnitor; and (c) reasonable cooperation by
the indemnitee in the defense as the indemnitor may request. The indemnitee has
the right to participate in the defense against the indemnified claims with

liability or take any other actions prejudicial to the defense. Further, the
indemnitee may not settle an indemnified claim unless the indemnitor has
declined to defend.

4.8 Proportional Liability. Each indemnitor’s liability to pay or reimburse any
indemnified claim is limited to the extent of the indemnitor’s proportional
contribution. Neither party has any liability to the extent that any losses in

Terms, all payment obligations under any and all Order Forms or Statements of
Work are non-cancelable and all payments made are non-refundable.

specific Order Form or Statement of Work upon written notice. Upon termination

payment transactions processed through BirdEye Payments are done through a third
party payment processor which is Level 1 PCI DSS compliant. Since BirdEye does

reversal of a transaction. The amount of the refund transaction will be sent to

Payment Fees which BirdEye will deduct from Client's payment account for the
original transaction. Client agrees to indemnify BirdEye against any claims
related to or arising out of any claims by Client's customer related to the
amount of any refund, chargeback or similar issue. In the event Client's payment
account does not contain the funds required to process the refund or cover the
Payment Fees, Client gives BirdEye the right to debit Client's bank account
directly to cover the shortfall.

Right to Cancel or Adjust Pricing: BirdEye reserves the right to terminate
Client's access to and use of Payments if BirdEye, in its sole discretion,
determines that Client pose too great of a risk to continue using the Payments
service. In addition, BirdEye reserves the right to modify the Payment Fees,
upon written notice (for which an email will suffice), in its sole discretion,
if BirdEye determines that different Payment Fees are required to cover the risk
posed by Client's use of the Payments service.

Hardware/Terminals: Client may be provided with hardware (ie, a “terminal”) to
assist with point of sale purchases using the Payments service. Client will at
all times be responsible for maintaining the terminal and will, upon termination
of the Payments service or upon reasonable request from BirdEye, return all
terminals in good condition and good working order.

Disputes: For disputed transactions (including allegedly fraudulent
transactions), Client is responsible for providing evidence of the relevant
transaction(s), through the tools provided by BirdEye. BirdEye is not
