Article 8 — TERM AND TERMINATION
Section 8.1 Term. The term of this Agreement commences as of the Effective Date and unless terminated earlier pursuant to any of the Agreement’s express provisions, will continue in effect and will auto-renew for the next year, once the term ends.
Section 8.2 Termination. In addition to any other express termination right set forth elsewhere in this Agreement:
- Company may terminate this Agreement, effective upon written notice to Customer, if Customer: (i) fails to pay any amount when due hereunder, and the failure continues more than thirty (30) days after Company’s delivery of written notice of failure to pay; or (ii) breaches any of its obligations under Section 2.3 or Article 7.
- either Party may terminate this Agreement, effective upon prior written notice to the other Party, if the other Party materially breaches this Agreement, and such breach: (i) is incapable of cure, or (ii) being capable of cure, remains uncured thirty (30) days after the non-breaching Party provides the breaching Party with written notice of such breach, and

- either Party may terminate this Agreement for convenience upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the other Party. Such termination shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay all Fees accrued and due through the end of the thirty (30)-day notice period. For the avoidance of doubt, a termination for convenience under this Section 8.2(d) shall not trigger the Early Termination Fee set forth in Section 8.3, provided that the terminating Party has provided the full thirty (30) days’ written notice required herein.
Section 8.3 Effect of Expiration or Termination. Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement, except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement:
- all rights, licenses, consents and authorizations granted by either Party to the other hereunder will immediately terminate,
- Company shall immediately cease all use of any non-anonymized Customer Data or Customer’s Confidential Information and (i) at Customer’s written request, return to Customer or destroy, all documents and tangible materials containing, reflecting, incorporating, or based on non-anonymized Customer Data or Customer’s Confidential Information, and (ii) permanently erase all non-anonymized Customer Data and Customer’s Confidential Information from all systems Company directly or indirectly controls,

- if Customer terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2(b), Customer will be relieved of any obligation to pay any Fees (including Early Termination Fees) attributable to the period after the effective date of the termination and Company will refund to Customer Fees paid in advance for Subscriptions that Company has not performed as of the effective date of termination,
- if Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.2(a) or Section 8.2(b), or if the Customer Terminates this Agreement or any Service Order at any time prior to the expiration of any Service Term of any Service Order for convenience, all Fees that would have become payable had the Agreement remained in effect until expiration of the Term will become immediately due and payable, and Customer shall pay such Fees, together with all previously accrued but not yet paid Fees and any expenses that are reimbursable, on receipt of Company’s invoice. The Early Termination Fees are calculated pursuant to the definitions set forth herein. Customer agrees that the amount of the Early Termination Fee is a genuine estimate of Company’s actual damages resulting from an early termination of the Services, and therefore for the sake of efficiency, economy, and convenience, the Early Termination Fee set forth herein constitutes liquidated damages, is reasonable, and is not intended as a penalty or to be punitive in nature.
Section 8.4 Surviving Terms.
