By clicking "agree and install," using the SecureAnywhere Business Solution or using or installing any Software (the first date on which any such action occurs, the "Effective Date"), You acknowledge that You have read this Agreement, understand it, and agree to be bound by it. If You do not agree, You are not authorized to use the SecureAnywhere Business Solution for any purpose, and You should not install the Software.
Webroot may modify this Agreement upon notice to You, which notice may be provided via the Webroot Portal (as defined below).

IN CONDUCTING THE FOREGOING ACTIVITIES, WEBROOT MAY TRANSFER YOUR INFORMATION TO ITS LOCATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS. BY AGREEING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND INSTALLING THE SOFTWARE, YOU AGREE TO SUCH TRANSFER OF YOUR INFORMATION. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR INFORMATION MAY NOT BE SUBJECT TO THE SAME CONTROLS AS YOUR CURRENT LOCATION.

9.2 Disclaimers. The express warranties in this Section 9 are in lieu of all other warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, regarding the Software, Documentation, and Support, including without limitation any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement of third party rights.

Webroot will promptly notify Licensee in writing of such action or claim, give Licensee sole control of the defense thereof and any related settlement negotiations, cooperate with Licensee and, at Licensee’s request and expense, assist in such defense. This Section 10 states Webroot’s entire liability and Licensee’s sole and exclusive remedy for infringement claims and actions.

Except with respect to claims arising out of a breach of Sections 2, 3 and/or 8, in no event will either party be liable for any consequential, indirect, exemplary, special, or incidental damages, including any lost or damaged data and lost profits, arising from or relating to this Agreement even if the party has been advised of the possibility of such damages. Additionally, in no event will Webroot’s total cumulative liability in connection with this Agreement and the Software, Documentation, and Support, whether in contract or tort or otherwise, exceed the amount of License Fees paid to Webroot hereunder.
12. TERM AND TERMINATION.
12.1 Term. The initial term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and shall continue for the Subscription Term as specified in the Service Order (the "Initial Term"). At the end of the Initial Term, this Agreement shall be renewed automatically for consecutive renewal terms of twelve (12) months (each such term, a "Renewal Term") (such Renewal Terms together with the Initial Term, the "Term"), unless terminated by either party by providing the other party written notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the applicable Term or unless terminated pursuant to Section 12.2.

12.3 Effects of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement by Webroot under Section 12.1 or 12.2, any amounts owed to Webroot under this Agreement before such termination will immediately be due and payable, and Licensee’s rights to the Support will immediately terminate.

13. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. The Software is configured to (i) automatically block, remove, and/or quarantine the installation of software that Licensee may not want on its computer system ("Potentially Unwanted Software") and (ii) enable Licensee to decide whether or not it wants Potentially Unwanted Software installed on its computer system. The choice is Licensee’s. If Licensee does not want the ability to remove potentially unwanted software from its computer system, Licensee shall not accept this license and will not install the Software. If the Software identifies Potentially Unwanted Software, the Software will ask Licensee if its wants to retain or remove the program(s). Licensee understands that whether the Software removes or disables Potentially Unwanted Software is its choice and that it is solely responsible for selecting which Potentially Unwanted Software the Software removes or disables. Licensee agree that Webroot is not responsible for such removal or disabling or the consequences thereof. Removing or disabling the Potentially Unwanted Software may cause other software on Licensee’s computer system ("Other Software") to stop working, and it may cause Licensee to breach a license to use Other Software on Licensee’s computer system if the Other Software installed the Potentially Unwanted Software as a condition of Licensee’s use of the Other Software. Licensee is hereby advised to review the license agreement(s) for Other Software before authorizing the removal of Potentially Unwanted Software. Licensee acknowledges that its use of the Software may remove or disable other programs on Licensee’s computer system, including software that may or may not be Potentially Unwanted Software. While Webroot uses reasonable efforts to properly identify Potentially Unwanted Software and regularly update its list of such programs, Webroot cannot and does not guarantee that its list is complete or accurate. For more information regarding how to access and review Potentially Unwanted Software blocked or quarantined by the Software, and/or how to prevent such a program from being blocked or quarantined in the future, please contact Support following installation.
14. GENERAL.
14.1 Export Laws. Licensee acknowledges that the laws and regulations of the United States restrict the export and re-export of commodities and technical data of United States origin, including the Software. Licensee agrees that it will not export or re-export the Software in any form in violation of the export laws of the United States or any foreign jurisdiction. Licensee will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Webroot from and against any violation of such laws or regulations by Licensee or any of its agents, officers, directors, or employees.
14.2 Assignments. Licensee may not assign or transfer, by operation of law or otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement (including its licenses with respect to the Software) to any third party without Webroot’s prior written consent. Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be void. Without limiting Webroot’s right to assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder, Webroot will have the right to assign this Agreement to any successor to its business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of stock, reorganization, or otherwise.
14.3 Notices.

Either party may change its address by giving written notice of the new address to the other party.
14.4 Governing Law and Venue. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any of its conflict of laws provisions that would cause the laws of another jurisdiction to apply. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to this Agreement. Any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement must be brought in a federal or state court in Denver or Boulder County, Colorado (provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement will prevent Webroot from seeking injunctive relief to enforce the terms of this Agreement in any venue or jurisdiction, as determined in Webroot’s sole convenience), and each party irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction and venue of any such court in any such action or proceeding. If any legal action is brought to enforce this Agreement, the prevailing party will be entitled to receive its costs, expenses and reasonable attorneys’ fees, in addition to any other relief it may receive.
14.5 Remedies. Licensee acknowledges that the Software contains valuable trade secrets and proprietary information of Webroot, that any actual or threatened breach of Sections 2, 3 or 8 will constitute immediate, irreparable harm to Webroot for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that injunctive relief is an appropriate remedy for such breach, and Licensee waives any requirement by Webroot for posting bond.
14.6 Waivers. All waivers must be in writing. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.

Neither party may assign this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that either party may freely assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder to any affiliate or any successor to its business or assets to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of assets, sale of stock, reorganization, or otherwise. No provision of this Agreement will be deemed waived unless the wavier is in writing and signed by Webroot. No modifications or amendments shall be made to this Agreement unless in writing and signed by the parties. This Agreement and the Remote Access Agreement constitute the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding between You and Webroot and supersede and cancel all previous written and oral agreements and communications relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Remote Access Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if You have entered into a separate written agreement signed by Webroot for provision of the Professional Services, the terms and conditions of such other agreement will prevail over any conflicting terms and conditions in this Agreement. No provision of any purchase order or in any other business form employed by You will supersede the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and any such document issued by You will be for administrative purposes only and will have no legal effect.
