Work Order (defined below)
These General Terms of Service
1.2 Customer requests Service Provider to provide services (including, but not limited to, the Software defined in Section 7.1) (the “Services”) and (as the case may be) products (the “Products”) as defined in this Agreement.
1.3 Service Provider and Customer must complete and execute work orders (each, a “Work Order”) before any Services are provided or Products are delivered. Each Work Order will include the information relating to the specific Services and/or Products. Once executed, a Work Order becomes part of this Agreement, although the terms in a Work Order will govern only the Services and/or Products described in that Work Order.
Services and Products
2.1 Provision of Services. Service Provider agrees to provide the Services identified in the Agreement (including, but not limited to, the Software defined in Section 7.1). The provision of the Services shall be subject to the limited or excluded representations and warranties according to Section 4.
2.2 Provision of Products. Service Provider agrees to sell the Products (including, but not limited to, thermal cameras) identified in the Agreement. Such purchase agreements shall be subject to the limited or excluded representations and warranties according to Section 4.
2.3 Standard Operating Procedures. Service Provider will, upon request and under confidentiality, supply copies to Customer of all standard operating procedures of Service Provider relevant to the Services rendered and the Products sold under this Agreement.
2.4 Subcontracting. Service Provider may subcontract the performance of certain portions of the Services to an Affiliate (defined below) of Service Provider or to a qualified third party; provided, that (a) Service Provider notifies Customer in writing of the Affiliate or proposed subcontractor and identifies the specific Services to be performed by such Affiliate or subcontractor, (b) such Affiliate or subcontractor performs those Services in a manner consistent with the terms, conditions and obligations of this Agreement, and (c) Service Provider remains liable for the performance of such Affiliate or subcontractor. “Affiliate” means, with respect to each party to this Agreement, any corporation, company, partnership, joint venture and/or firm which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with that party. As used in this Section 2.4, “control” means (i) in the case of corporate entities, direct or indirect ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the stock or shares having the right to vote for the election of directors (or such lesser percentage that is the maximum allowed to be owned by a foreign corporation in a particular jurisdiction), and (ii) in the case of non‑corporate entities, the direct or indirect power to manage, direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the non‑corporate entity or the power to elect at least fifty percent (50%) of the members of the governing body of such non-corporate entity.

If a required modification to the Agreement is identified by Customer or by Service Provider, the identifying Party will notify the other Party in writing as soon as reasonably possible. Within ten (10) business days of receiving or sending such notice, Service Provider will provide Customer with a change order containing a description of the required modifications and their effect on the scope, fees and timelines specified in the Agreement (each, a “Change Order”). No Change Order will be effective unless and until it has been signed by an authorized representative of each Party. If Customer does not approve such Change Order, then the Parties will use reasonable efforts to agree on a Change Order that is mutually acceptable. If practicable, Service Provider will continue to provide Services under the existing Agreement during any such negotiations, provided such efforts would facilitate the completion of the work envisioned in the proposed Change Order, but will not commence work in accordance with the Change Order until it is authorized in writing by Customer. Nothing in this Section 2.5 will limit Customer’s right to terminate this Agreement under Section 10.

SERVICE PROVIDER DOES NOT PROMISE ANY PARTICULAR RESULTS, INCLUDING THE PREVENTION OF FIRES OR OTHER HAZARDS.
Representations and Warranties by Service Provider and Failure to Perform
4.1 For the Products
The warranty offered herein by Service Provider (the “Warranty”) gives Customer specific legal rights. This Warranty and the remedies set forth are exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, remedies and conditions, whether oral, written, statutory, express or implied. Service Provider disclaims all statutory and implied warranties, including without limitation, warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose and warranties against hidden or latent defects, to the extent permitted by law. In so far as such warranties cannot be disclaimed, Service Provider limits the duration and remedies of such warranties to the duration of this express Warranty (to the extent permitted by law) and, at Service Provider’s option, the repair or replacement services described below regarding the Product.
Service Provider warrants to the Customer (being the original purchaser) that the Product will be free from material defects in workmanship and materials under normal use for a period of two (2) year from the date of purchase (the “Warranty Period”). This Warranty applies to hardware products and accessories marked with the Service Provider’s trade name or logo and containing a valid serial number which were sold/purchased directly from the Service Provider or from an authorized reseller.
If Customer submits warranty claims to Service Provider before the end of the Warranty Period and the Product clearly and verifiably fails the warranty, Service Provider will, in its sole discretion: (i) refund Customer in the amount of the price paid by Customer for the Product (excluding taxes and shipping costs); (ii) exchange the Product with a new or refurbished Product (exchange the Product of identical specifications or functional equivalent); or (iii) repair the Product. This Section sets forth Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy. Returns shipped without Service Providers’ prior express return authorization will not be accepted.
If a Product has been exchanged or repaired following this Warranty, it will be subject to a warranty for either: (i) the remaining original Warranty Period; or (ii) thirty (30) days from the date of repair or replacement.
Service Provider is not responsible for lost or damaged return shipments. Customer assumes responsibility for the payment of any shipping charges and for all risk of loss or damage to the Product during shipment to Service Provider.
This Warranty does not apply to, and explicitly excludes, the following: (a) defects or damage caused by alteration, unusual stress, accident, neglect, abuse, misuse, improper or unauthorized repair, installation, wiring, improper storage or testing, use of third party accessories or if the serial number has been removed; (b) damage caused by using the Products outside the permitted or intended uses described by Service Provider; (c) damage caused by use with third-party products; (d) any third-party hardware products, even if packaged or sold with the Products; and (e) modifications of the Products by anyone other than Service Provider.

Service Provider will not enter into any agreement, either written or oral, that would conflict with Service Provider’s responsibilities under this Agreement.
4.2.4 Qualifications of Service Provider Personnel. Service Provider has, and will, engage employees and approved subcontractors and/or consultants (the “Service Provider Personnel”) with the proper skill, training and experience to perform the Services.

Before providing Services, all Service Provider Personnel must have agreed in writing to (a) confidentiality obligations consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and (b) assign or otherwise effectively vest in Service Provider any and all rights that such personnel might otherwise have in the results of their work.
4.2.5 Data Security. Service Provider maintains appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of the data provided by Customer to Service Provider for the provision of the Services (the “Customer Data”). All data storage and processing happen within a secure environment which only authorized and authenticated personnel can access.
4.2.6 Legal Compliance. Service Provider will comply, in all material respects, with all Swiss laws, regulations and orders applicable to its operations.
4.2.7 Conflicts with Rights of Third Parties. To the best of Service Provider’s knowledge, the provision of the Services under this Agreement will not violate any patent, trade secret or other proprietary or intellectual property right of any third party.
4.2.8 Exclusive Representations and Warranties. Service Provider does not give any other representations and warranties than those that are explicitly stated in this Section 4.

Upon expiry of one (1) year after delivery of the Services concerned, all claims of the Customer based on defects or deviations shall be time-barred.
Obligations of Customer

Further, a late payment interest of five percent (5%) per year shall apply.
6.3 Reimbursement. Customer shall reimburse Service Provider for reasonable travel expenses and other out-of-pocket expenses incurred directly and solely in connection with the Agreement, provided that such costs have been approved in advance by Customer.

In this context, Service Provider grants to Customer access to the Software on a non-exclusive basis. Customer is granted no ownership rights or exclusive or sole license to the Software. Customer understands and agrees not to directly, or indirectly: reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code, or underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the Software.

7.3 Record Retention. All Records will be retained by Service Provider for a period of five (5) years, or such longer period as required under applicable law or regulation (the “Record Retention Period”).

For Innovire USA LLC General Terms, please see the link at the bottom of this page
These general terms of service (the “General Terms of Service) regulate the contractual relationship entered into by and between you (the “Customer”) and Innovire AG, a corporation established under Swiss law, having its registered office at Stettbachstrasse 6, 8600 Dübendorf, Switzerland (the “Service Provider”, together with the Customer the “Parties” and each a “Party”) (the “Agreement”).
Background and Agreement Structure
1.1 The Agreement consists of the following elements which shall, in case of any discrepancy or conflict, prevail in the following order (lower number governs over higher number):
Work Order (defined below)
These General Terms of Service
1.2 Customer requests Service Provider to provide services (including, but not limited to, the Software defined in Section 7.1) (the “Services”) and (as the case may be) products (the “Products”) as defined in this Agreement.
1.3 Service Provider and Customer must complete and execute work orders (each, a “Work Order”) before any Services are provided or Products are delivered. Each Work Order will include the information relating to the specific Services and/or Products. Once executed, a Work Order becomes part of this Agreement, although the terms in a Work Order will govern only the Services and/or Products described in that Work Order.
Services and Products
2.1 Provision of Services. Service Provider agrees to provide the Services identified in the Agreement (including, but not limited to, the Software defined in Section 7.1). The provision of the Services shall be subject to the limited or excluded representations and warranties according to Section 4.
2.2 Provision of Products. Service Provider agrees to sell the Products (including, but not limited to, thermal cameras) identified in the Agreement. Such purchase agreements shall be subject to the limited or excluded representations and warranties according to Section 4.
2.3 Standard Operating Procedures. Service Provider will, upon request and under confidentiality, supply copies to Customer of all standard operating procedures of Service Provider relevant to the Services rendered and the Products sold under this Agreement.
2.4 Subcontracting. Service Provider may subcontract the performance of certain portions of the Services to an Affiliate (defined below) of Service Provider or to a qualified third party; provided, that (a) Service Provider notifies Customer in writing of the Affiliate or proposed subcontractor and identifies the specific Services to be performed by such Affiliate or subcontractor, (b) such Affiliate or subcontractor performs those Services in a manner consistent with the terms, conditions and obligations of this Agreement, and (c) Service Provider remains liable for the performance of such Affiliate or subcontractor. “Affiliate” means, with respect to each party to this Agreement, any corporation, company, partnership, joint venture and/or firm which controls, is controlled by or is under common control with that party. As used in this Section 2.4, “control” means (i) in the case of corporate entities, direct or indirect ownership of at least fifty percent (50%) of the stock or shares having the right to vote for the election of directors (or such lesser percentage that is the maximum allowed to be owned by a foreign corporation in a particular jurisdiction), and (ii) in the case of non‑corporate entities, the direct or indirect power to manage, direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the non‑corporate entity or the power to elect at least fifty percent (50%) of the members of the governing body of such non-corporate entity.
2.5 Change Orders. If the scope of work under this Agreement changes, then the Agreement may be amended as provided in this Section 2.5. If a required modification to the Agreement is identified by Customer or by Service Provider, the identifying Party will notify the other Party in writing as soon as reasonably possible. Within ten (10) business days of receiving or sending such notice, Service Provider will provide Customer with a change order containing a description of the required modifications and their effect on the scope, fees and timelines specified in the Agreement (each, a “Change Order”). No Change Order will be effective unless and until it has been signed by an authorized representative of each Party. If Customer does not approve such Change Order, then the Parties will use reasonable efforts to agree on a Change Order that is mutually acceptable. If practicable, Service Provider will continue to provide Services under the existing Agreement during any such negotiations, provided such efforts would facilitate the completion of the work envisioned in the proposed Change Order, but will not commence work in accordance with the Change Order until it is authorized in writing by Customer. Nothing in this Section 2.5 will limit Customer’s right to terminate this Agreement under Section 10.
No Professional Advice
NOTHING PROVIDED BY SERVICE PROVIDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES AND/OR THE PRODUCTS, SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO CONSTITUTE PROFESSIONAL ADVICE OR SUPPORT WITH RESPECT TO COMPLYING WITH FIRE PREVENTION OR OTHER SAFETY LAWS AND REGULATIONS, AND CUSTOMER SHOULD NOT RELY ON THEM AS SUCH. CUSTOMER’S DECISION TO RELY ON ANY INFORMATION OR DATA OR OTHER RESULTS IT OBTAINS IN CONNECTION WITH ITS USE OF THE SERVICES AND/OR PRODUCTS IS AT ITS SOLE DISCRETION AND RISK. SERVICE PROVIDER DOES NOT PROMISE ANY PARTICULAR RESULTS, INCLUDING THE PREVENTION OF FIRES OR OTHER HAZARDS.
Representations and Warranties by Service Provider and Failure to Perform
4.1 For the Products
The warranty offered herein by Service Provider (the “Warranty”) gives Customer specific legal rights. This Warranty and the remedies set forth are exclusive and in lieu of all other warranties, remedies and conditions, whether oral, written, statutory, express or implied. Service Provider disclaims all statutory and implied warranties, including without limitation, warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose and warranties against hidden or latent defects, to the extent permitted by law. In so far as such warranties cannot be disclaimed, Service Provider limits the duration and remedies of such warranties to the duration of this express Warranty (to the extent permitted by law) and, at Service Provider’s option, the repair or replacement services described below regarding the Product.
Service Provider warrants to the Customer (being the original purchaser) that the Product will be free from material defects in workmanship and materials under normal use for a period of two (2) year from the date of purchase (the “Warranty Period”). This Warranty applies to hardware products and accessories marked with the Service Provider’s trade name or logo and containing a valid serial number which were sold/purchased directly from the Service Provider or from an authorized reseller.
If Customer submits warranty claims to Service Provider before the end of the Warranty Period and the Product clearly and verifiably fails the warranty, Service Provider will, in its sole discretion: (i) refund Customer in the amount of the price paid by Customer for the Product (excluding taxes and shipping costs); (ii) exchange the Product with a new or refurbished Product (exchange the Product of identical specifications or functional equivalent); or (iii) repair the Product. This Section sets forth Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy. Returns shipped without Service Providers’ prior express return authorization will not be accepted.
If a Product has been exchanged or repaired following this Warranty, it will be subject to a warranty for either: (i) the remaining original Warranty Period; or (ii) thirty (30) days from the date of repair or replacement.
Service Provider is not responsible for lost or damaged return shipments. Customer assumes responsibility for the payment of any shipping charges and for all risk of loss or damage to the Product during shipment to Service Provider.
This Warranty does not apply to, and explicitly excludes, the following: (a) defects or damage caused by alteration, unusual stress, accident, neglect, abuse, misuse, improper or unauthorized repair, installation, wiring, improper storage or testing, use of third party accessories or if the serial number has been removed; (b) damage caused by using the Products outside the permitted or intended uses described by Service Provider; (c) damage caused by use with third-party products; (d) any third-party hardware products, even if packaged or sold with the Products; and (e) modifications of the Products by anyone other than Service Provider.
4.2 For the Services
Service Provider makes the following exclusive representations and warranties with respect to the Services, and agrees to notify Customer in writing immediately upon any future breach of these representations and warranties:

4.2.3 Absence of Other Contractual Restrictions. Service Provider is under no contractual or other obligation or restriction that is inconsistent with Service Provider's execution or performance of this Agreement. Service Provider will not enter into any agreement, either written or oral, that would conflict with Service Provider’s responsibilities under this Agreement.
4.2.4 Qualifications of Service Provider Personnel. Service Provider has, and will, engage employees and approved subcontractors and/or consultants (the “Service Provider Personnel”) with the proper skill, training and experience to perform the Services. Service Provider will be solely responsible for paying Service Provider Personnel and providing any employee other benefits that they are owed. Before providing Services, all Service Provider Personnel must have agreed in writing to (a) confidentiality obligations consistent with the terms of this Agreement, and (b) assign or otherwise effectively vest in Service Provider any and all rights that such personnel might otherwise have in the results of their work.
4.2.5 Data Security. Service Provider maintains appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards for protection of the security, confidentiality and integrity of the data provided by Customer to Service Provider for the provision of the Services (the “Customer Data”). All data storage and processing happen within a secure environment which only authorized and authenticated personnel can access.
4.2.6 Legal Compliance. Service Provider will comply, in all material respects, with all Swiss laws, regulations and orders applicable to its operations.
4.2.7 Conflicts with Rights of Third Parties. To the best of Service Provider’s knowledge, the provision of the Services under this Agreement will not violate any patent, trade secret or other proprietary or intellectual property right of any third party.
4.2.8 Exclusive Representations and Warranties. Service Provider does not give any other representations and warranties than those that are explicitly stated in this Section 4.
4.2.9 Failure to Perform. In the event that the Services provided hereunder (or any portion thereof) do not meet the specifications or other performance criteria agreed to by Service Provider and Customer in this Agreement, then Service Provider will, at Service Provider’s sole discretion, promptly (i) re-perform or repair such Services at Service Provider’s cost, or (ii) refund to Customer all amounts paid by Customer to Service Provider in connection with such Services. Upon expiry of one (1) year after delivery of the Services concerned, all claims of the Customer based on defects or deviations shall be time-barred.
Obligations of Customer
If specified in a Work Order, Customer shall be obliged to adhere to the instructions of use attached or referred to in the Work Order (the “Instructions of Use”). The representations and warranties according to Section 4 above (if any) are made and provided under the condition that and subject to such instructions of use being at all times be fully complied with by the Customer.
Compensation
6.1 Fees. As full and complete consideration for the Services and Products, Customer will pay Service Provider as set forth in the applicable Work Order.

Further, a late payment interest of five percent (5%) per year shall apply.

In this context, Service Provider grants to Customer access to the Software on a non-exclusive basis. Customer is granted no ownership rights or exclusive or sole license to the Software. Customer understands and agrees not to directly, or indirectly: reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code, or underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the Software. Customer agrees not to modify, translate, or create derivative works based on any aspect of the Software. Customer understands that it has no rights to copy, distribute, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer or encumber rights to the Software or any of its components.

7.3 Record Retention. All Records will be retained by Service Provider for a period of five (5) years, or such longer period as required under applicable law or regulation (the “Record Retention Period”). At the end of the Record Retention Period, such Records will, at Service Provider’s sole discretion, either be (a) delivered to Customer or to its designee, or (b) disposed of. Service Provider may retain copies of any Records as are reasonably necessary for regulatory or insurance purposes, subject to Service Provider’s obligations of confidentiality under this Agreement.
Confidential Information

During the term of this Agreement and for a period of five (5) years thereafter, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, Service Provider will not, directly or indirectly, publish, disseminate or otherwise disclose, or deliver or make available to any third party, or use any Confidential Information, other than in furtherance of the purposes of this Agreement. Service Provider will exercise all reasonable precautions to protect the integrity and confidentiality of the Confidential Information. Service Provider may disseminate or permit access to Confidential Information only to Service Provider Personnel who have a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of their duties under this Agreement and who are bound to obligations of non-disclosure and non-use of the Confidential Information that are at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Agreement.
