  4. Confidentiality

    1. Definition of Confidential Information. “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 circumstances of disclosure. Confidential Information includes, without limitation, information relating to either party’s products, technology, know-how, specifications, and concepts; as well as information of business and commercial nature, of either part. Confidential Information does not include 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 independently developed by the Receiving Party.
    2. Treatment and Use of Confidential Information. The Receiving Party will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but not less than reasonable care) to (i) not use any Confidential
    3. Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement and (ii) except as otherwise authorized by the Disclosing Party in writing, limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its and its Affiliates’ employees and contractors who need that access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who have signed confidentiality agreements with the Receiving Party containing protections not materially less protective of the Confidential Information than those herein. 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 Section.
    4. Compelled Disclosure. 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.
  5. Fees & Payment

    1. Fees. Customer will pay all fees specified in any applicable Order Forms. Except as otherwise specified herein or in an Order Form, (i) fees are based on the Service purchased and not actual usage, (ii) payment obligations are non-cancelable, and (iii) fees paid are non-refundable. Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing and contact information to WalkMe.
    2. Taxes.  WalkMe’s 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”). Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes associated with Customer’s purchases hereunder. If WalkMe has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible under this Section, WalkMe will invoice Customer and Customer will pay that amount unless Customer provides WalkMe with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. For clarity, WalkMe is solely responsible for taxes assessable against it based on its income, property and employees.

    2. By WalkMe. WalkMe will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Customer from and against all liabilities, damages, costs (including settlement costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of any claim by a third party against Customer to the extent the claim is based on an allegation that WalkMe’s technology used to provide the Services to the Customer infringes or misappropriates any copyright, trade secret, U.S. patent, or trademark right of the third party. In no event will WalkMe have any obligations or liability under this section arising from: (i) use of any Services in a modified form or in combination with materials not furnished by WalkMe and (ii) any content, information, or data provided by Customer, End Users, or other third parties.
    3. General. The party seeking indemnification will promptly notify the other party of the claim and cooperate with the other party in defending the claim.
