Please read these terms of service (“TOS”) carefully. They constitute a legally binding agreement and contain terms limiting our liability to you, exclusions of certain warranties, and terms relating to our access to and use of data collected and analysed by the Platform.
These TOS apply to the Platform for App Owners (“customers) with FREE Plans or PAID “Plans”.
We reserve the right to change or modify any of these TOS at any time, in our sole discretion. Your continued use of any part of the Platform following such a change will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications.

You shall not disclose the details of the Platform, or portion thereof, to any third party. This section shall survive termination of this Agreement until and to the extent that such information becomes publicly available. If we have signed a non-disclosure agreement, the terms of such agreement shall also apply to your use of the Platform, to the extent that such terms do not conflict with this Agreement.
The confidentiality obligations in Section 2 will not apply to Confidential Information that:
FREE Plan: Access is on a month-to-month basis and either party may terminate access at any time by giving email notice to the other.

All other Plans: The Term will be as outlined in your Plan Agreement or your specific contract.
You may terminate this Agreement for cause:
(i) upon 30 days written notice to us of a material breach if such breach remains uncured at the expiration of such period, or
(ii) if we become the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation or assignment for the benefit of creditors.
Upon any termination for cause by you, we shall give you a refund of any prepaid fees pro-rated to the effective date of termination.
This agreement and your right to use the Platform shall terminate automatically if you violate any part of these Service Terms or if you become insolvent. In this case, no refund of pre-paid fees will be provided by us.
For FREE plans, where your account is inactive for a period of ninety (90) days, your right to use the Platform shall terminate automatically and immediately.

Without prejudice to Contextual’s other rights and remedies hereunder, Contextual may at its discretion suspend Customer’s access or SDK access to the Contextual Services immediately:
Contextual shall endeavour to keep all such suspensions to a minimum and shall give Customer prior notice of such suspensions to nominated administrative contacts where reasonably practicable to the extent that, where applicable, the Underlying Service Provider provides such notice and subject to the Underlying Service Provider’s suspensions length.
Contextual is used to support Mobile and Web Apps with Guides and Analytics with unmetered bandwidth based on fair-use assumptions and should be used in accordance with our product documentation and TOS. As such, Dashboard, API and SDK endpoints currently do not limit the bandwidth you may use in accordance with your Plan to which you have subscribed and deemed by us to be ordinary usage.
Should Contextual deem a customer’s account as exceeding fair-use bandwidth consumption or causing technical problems, Contextual will notify the customer and allow the customer to remedy the problem. However, should a customer’s bandwidth or Platform resource impact be significantly greater than what Contextual deems as fair-use of the Platform, Contextual reserves the right to suspend or throttle the customer’s account where appropriate. In such an event, Contextual will notify Customer within 7 business and discuss other available options and Platform that could be better suited for your use and needs.
Upon termination, you will stop using the Platform (and you acknowledge that we may terminate your account). On termination you will remove the Libraries from your app and cease all use of the Platform Libraries, SDKs and API. Unless this agreement has been terminated for your breach, insolvency or non-payment of fees, you need not remove the Libraries from your app immediately but must do so within a reasonable period.
You acknowledge that, on termination of the Platform, your App users may not have access to some features that depend on the Platform API.
Unless your access to the Platform has been terminated for non-payment, insolvency or for breach of these TOS, we will maintain your App Data for a period of not less than thirty (30) days. We are not obliged to maintain App Data for longer than this period.
(i) For PAID Plans, upon written request we will make it available to you to download in a format and time reasonably determined by us.
(ii) For FREE Plan, at your own cost, you may export data from the console via printout, export or via relevant API calls during this period.
For (i) and (ii) You should be aware that after this period, all App Data may be deleted permanently and may not be retrievable.

In no event shall we be liable for any indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages whatsoever arising out of the use of or inability to use the Platform, whether based on contract, tort or other legal theory, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
