2. SYSTEM OVERVIEW

2.1 Authentication.

(a) Certificates. A Certificate shall only be generated by Entrupy and may only be requested for Items verified by the System as Authentic in the final result. Licensee may display the Certificate for an Item or provide a link to the Certificate hosted by Entrupy solely on Licensee’s website, social media accounts maintained and owned by Licensee, Licensee’s online listings of Items on e-commerce, or printed out for physical display. Under no circumstances may Licensee, or any third party on behalf of Licensee, generate, reproduce, modify, display, or otherwise make available any Certificate for (i) an object other than the exact Item for which the System specifically generates it, (ii) any object that has not been verified as Authentic through the System, (iii) any object that Licensee knows or suspects to be inauthentic, (iv) any other use except as expressly set forth herein; or (v) for any Items submitted for verification by a User that Licensee knows or has reason to believe is a seller of, or is in any way affiliated with the sale of, inauthentic goods (collectively, the “Certificate Use Restrictions”). Licensee is responsible for ensuring that its Customers and Users comply with the Certificate Use Restrictions. Any attempted or actual breach of the Certificate Use Restrictions is a material breach of this Agreement and without affecting Entrupy’s other rights and remedies hereunder, will invalidate the Guarantee described in Section 2.1(c).

(b) Evidence Reports. Upon your request and subject to your payment of additional fees, Entrupy may produce an evidence report supplementing the information provided for any Unidentified Items (the “Evidence Report”).

(c) Disputes; Guarantee. To provide you with further confidence in our System’s Item verification abilities, Entrupy offers payout amounts for Items which we have issued a Certificate (the “Guarantee”) as further described in the Sneaker Guarantee Policy and Luxury Guarantee Policy. If the authenticated Item is a Sneaker, the Sneaker Guarantee Policy exclusively governs the Guarantee for that Item. If the authenticated Item is not a Sneaker, the Luxury Guarantee Policy exclusively governs the Guarantee for that Item. Such Guarantee will not apply if Entrupy invalidates an authentication or Certificate within fifteen (15) business minutes (i.e., minutes occurring between 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM ET Monday - Friday, excluding U.S. federal holidays, or as otherwise adjusted by Entrupy upon written notice from time to time) after delivery of the authentication results by Entrupy to you. In the event a Certificate is revoked by Entrupy, Licensee must promptly remove any publication or display of the Certificate, including on any websites, social media accounts maintained or owned by Licensee, Licensee’s online listings of Items on e-commerce, or printed out physical displays. The Guarantee is only available to, and must be claimed by, you, and not your Customers, Users, or any third parties. You are solely responsible for any promises you make to your Customers, Users, or any third parties based on the Guarantee, and any interactions with such Customers, Users, or any third parties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any attempted or actual breach of the Certificate Use Restrictions will invalidate any guarantee provided under this Agreement, the Sneaker Guarantee Policy, or the Luxury Guarantee Policy. The Guarantee is Entrupy’s sole and exclusive liability and responsibility for, and Licensee’s sole and exclusive remedy for, any Items incorrectly authenticated by the System. In the event the System issues an Unidentified result for an Item that is ultimately proven to be authentic, Entrupy shall not be liable or held responsible for any direct or indirect loss or harm that results. Licensee agrees not to challenge or otherwise attempt to hold Entrupy liable for Items deemed to be Unidentified by the System. All disputes by you regarding the authenticity of Items authenticated by Entrupy must be submitted in accordance with the applicable Sneaker Guarantee Policy or Luxury Guarantee Policy, which includes, without limitation, completing a claims form and submitting proof of purchase. Additional details of the Guarantee process, including how to file a dispute claim and additional restrictions and qualifications requirements, are available in the Sneaker Guarantee Policy and Luxury Guarantee Policy.

2.2 Data Transmission.

We are not responsible for any compromise of data or data security caused by transmission across non-Entrupy computer networks (including the internet).

3. LICENSE, OWNERSHIP AND RESTRICTIONS

3.1 License Grant.

Subject to this Agreement, we grant you and your Users a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, worldwide right, during the Term, to use the System, Software, and Hardware (to the extent you were provided any Hardware by Entrupy) for the sole purpose of authenticating and Fingerprinting Items. Additionally, to the extent you utilize the Entrupy SDK, we grant to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, non-sublicensable, license to use various software code, algorithms, libraries, testing and analysis tools, drivers, editors, network protocols, and development environments for purposes of integrating access to Entrupy’s System with your existing software or mobile application software via a software development kit or other similar means.

3.2 Authentication Services.

Entrupy grants you the right to offer, sell, and provide authentication and Fingerprinting services using the System on behalf of your Customers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement for the authentication of such Customer’s personal Items for non-commercial purposes, which shall include the rights to provide Customers with copies of the Certificates, if any, generated by your use of the System on their behalf; provided that (i) you inform Customers of, and have Customers agree to, the limitations on use in connection with the Certificates stated herein, including without limitation, Section 2.1(a) and the representations and warranties listed in Section 9.1(b) and (ii) Customers use the Certificates solely for non-commercial purposes. All Certificates will be issued under your name. Entrupy reserves the right to revoke this right in its sole discretion if it suspects any abuse or misuse by you or Customers. As stated above, Customers are not protected by the Guarantee.

3.3 Ownership.

We retain all right, title and interest in and to the Hardware, System, and Software and its components, outputs, and compilations, including all Intellectual Property Rights therein and all Images submitted or provided to Entrupy by you, your Users, or anyone that submits or provides such content to Entrupy through you or your Users. You and your Users agree not to challenge, object to, or otherwise interfere with Entrupy’s exclusive right, title and interest in and to such Intellectual Property Rights and Images. To the extent Entrupy cannot own any such rights by operation of law or otherwise, you, and anyone that uses the System through you or your Users, grants Entrupy a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, sub-licensable, perpetual license to use any such material provided by you or your Users, or obtained from you or anyone using the System through you, in connection with your use or your User’s use of the Hardware, System or Software without restriction, including but not limited to Entrupy’s right to display, edit, modify, reproduce, distribute, publish, store, or create derivative works of any such content.

Except as expressly permitted herein, you may not (1) sell, resell, rent, or lease access to the Hardware, System, or Software (2) operate the Hardware, System, or Software on a service bureau or shared access basis, (3) make the Hardware, System, or Software available to anyone except for your Users in accordance with this Agreement; (4) sublicense, copy, distribute, modify, or create derivative works of the Hardware, System, Software or any elements thereof; (5) decompile, reverse assemble, or reverse engineer the Hardware, System, or Software, including any attempt to derive source code; (6) repackage Software elements on a standalone basis; or (7) isolate or extract code or other elements from Software for any purpose. Additionally, you may not reproduce, screenshot, display, download, save, store, or share any Images or otherwise use any Images for any purpose or in any manner that is not expressly set forth herein. You are strictly prohibited from modifying or tampering with the Hardware (to the extent you were provided any by Entrupy), including by attempting to extract the Software from the Hardware or installing additional software or applications on the Hardware without Entrupy’s prior written approval. Hardware may only be used in connection with the applicable Entrupy-provided Software. Use of the Hardware (and any third-party software embedded therein) may be subject to additional terms and conditions, including from the manufacturer of such Hardware or components thereof. Breach of this section would be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. For clarification, this Section 3.4 does not restrict you from using, displaying or distributing Certificates, solely in accordance with the rest of the Agreement.

Furthermore, with respect to any application accessed through or downloaded from the Apple App Store (an “Apple App Store Sourced Application”), you will only use the Apple App Store Sourced Application (a) on an Apple-branded product that runs the iOS (Apple’s proprietary operating system), (b) as permitted by the “Usage Rules” set forth in the Apple App Store Terms of Service, including without limitation the following terms, which apply to any Apple App Store Sourced Application accessed through or downloaded from the Apple App Store:

Your use of the Apple App Store Sourced Application must comply with the App Store Terms of Service.
2. You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Apple App Store Sourced Application.
3. In the event of any failure of the Apple App Store Sourced Application to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Apple App Store Sourced Application to you and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Apple App Store Sourced Application. As between Entrupy and Apple, any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of Entrupy.
4. You and Entrupy acknowledge that, as between Entrupy and Apple, Apple is not responsible for addressing any claims you have or any claims of any third party relating to the Apple App Store Sourced Application or your possession and use of the Apple App Store Sourced Application, including, but not limited to: (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the Apple App Store Sourced Application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
5. You and Entrupy acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim that the Apple App Store Sourced Application or your possession and use of that Apple App Store Sourced Application infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, as between Entrupy and Apple, Entrupy, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim to the extent required by the Agreement.
6. You and Entrupy acknowledge and agree that Apple, and Apple’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of the Agreement as related to your license of the Apple App Store Sourced Application, and that, upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Agreement, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce the Agreement as related to your license of the Apple App Store Sourced Application against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
7. Without limiting any other terms of the Agreement, you must comply with all applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the Apple App Store Sourced Application.

3.5 Open Source Software.

Certain items of code provided with the Software are subject to “open source” or “free software” licenses (“OSS”). Licensee understands that OSS is not subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except for this section and the disclaimers and limitations of liability. Instead, each item of OSS is licensed under the terms of the license that accompanies such OSS.

3.6 Item Information and Reports.

We own all information, data, and content generated or collected by the Hardware, System, or Software, including all Images, Certificates, Evidence Reports, and other reports accompanying the authentication or verification of Items. We hereby grant to you a revocable, nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, nontransferable, non-sublicensable right and license, during the Term, to use, display, and distribute Certificates and Evidence Reports for your internal business operations, which includes providing Certificates to your Customers and end users for referential purposes. We reserve the right to revoke the licenses granted in this Section 3.6 at any time and invalidate any Certificates, upon notice, including, without limitation, for any material breach of this Agreement by you or your Users.

3.7 Entrupy Marks.

During the Term, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, we grant to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable, royalty-free license to use, display, and reproduce the Entrupy Marks, solely (a) as they appear on the Certificates, without modification, in your use, display and distribution of the Certificates for your internal business operations, (b) as they appear on any marketing materials provided by Entrupy in your distribution of such marketing materials, without modification, and (c) upon Entrupy’s prior written approval, on your website to promote your use of Entrupy’s services, provided that you do not suggest any partnership or endorsement by Entrupy of you or your business, products or services. We grant no rights in the Entrupy Marks other than those expressly granted in this section. You acknowledge our exclusive ownership of the Entrupy Marks and agree that all goodwill arising as a result of your use of the Entrupy Marks will inure solely to the benefit of Entrupy. You agree not to take any action inconsistent with such ownership. You shall not adopt, use, or attempt to register any trademarks, trade names, or service marks that are confusingly similar to the Entrupy Marks or in such a way as to create combination marks with the Entrupy Marks. At our request, you will modify or discontinue any use of the Entrupy Marks if we determine, in our sole discretion, that such use does not comply with this Agreement or our then-current trademark usage policies and guidelines. Any breach of this Section, or failure to sufficiently comply with Entrupy’s request for modification or discontinuance of use, in each case as determined by Entrupy in its sole discretion, shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement.

3.8 Updates.

(a) We will make all Updates available to you as and when they become generally available to our other similarly situated customers during the Term. Failure to install Updates (if applicable) may impact Hardware, System, or Software’s performance and will invalidate our support or indemnification obligations with respect to the Hardware, System, or Software.

(b) To the extent you have requested Hardware, Entrupy is not required to provide new Hardware to you during the Term. Entrupy may, however, at its sole discretion, elect to provide Hardware, including upgraded units to you to replace older Hardware (if applicable and which shall not occur more than once in any twelve (12) month period), in which case Entrupy may charge you a fee for the set-up cost of such replacement units as set forth on our applicable Hardware Replacement Fees schedule (for equipment used to authenticate Sneakers at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/sneakers/, and for all other items at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/luxury/, each as may be amended from time to time). In such case, you must promptly return your replaced Hardware units. Entrupy will provide shipping labels to you at Entrupy’s expense for the return of all Hardware in the event of a replacement. Entrupy may charge you for the replacement cost of any such Hardware that is not returned in Good Condition, as defined below and as determined by Entrupy in its sole discretion, within thirty (30) days of Entrupy’s delivery of the replacement Hardware as may be located in the applicable Hardware Replacement Fees schedules, and as may be amended from time to time.

(c) Entrupy may make additional features or modules for the System available for an additional fee during the Term (each such offering, an “Add-On”). Add-Ons are not required for the proper functioning of the System or any Software included in your Subscription and will be offered to you as and when they are generally offered to other Entrupy customers.

4. HARDWARE

4.1 Lease.

Entrupy may have leased and shipped Hardware to you in connection with this Agreement, or a previous agreement between you and Entrupy. To the extent you were provided with any Hardware, you shall at all times maintain such Hardware in good operating condition and repair, normal wear and tear excepted (“Good Condition”) and you shall keep the Hardware in your sole possession and control at all times, unless otherwise agreed upon by Entrupy in writing. All risk of loss for any Hardware (including any replacement Hardware) shall pass to you upon Entrupy’s delivery of the Hardware to the applicable carrier or delivery service.

4.2 Updates.

If Licensee has leased Hardware from Entrupy for a period of two (2) or more years, Entrupy may, in its sole discretion, require Licensee to replace such Hardware. You agree to pay Entrupy the then applicable fees and costs for replacing any Hardware, as made available at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/sneakers/ for equipment used to authenticate Sneakers, or at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/luxury/ for all other items, and as may be amended from time to time. Additionally, any Hardware that is not maintained in Good Condition shall be promptly replaced by you at the then applicable fees and costs for replacing such Hardware.

4.3 Return.

All Hardware shall be returned to Entrupy in Good Condition within thirty (30) days of termination or expiration of this Agreement. Entrupy will provide shipping labels to you at Entrupy’s expense for the return of all Hardware upon termination of this Agreement. If you fail to return such Hardware within thirty (30) days or the Hardware is not returned in Good Condition, as determined by Entrupy in its reasonable discretion, you agree you will pay Entrupy the applicable fees and costs for replacing such Hardware as made available at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/sneakers/ for equipment used to authenticate Sneakers, or at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/luxury/ for all other items, and as may be amended from time to time.

5. SERVICES

5.1 Software Support.

(a) We will use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve issues with the Software in a timely manner. Problems with Software should be reported to us via email at support@entrupy.com. As promptly as reasonably possible following an update to any operating system or other software that the Software is dependent upon, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to modify the Software to remain compatible with the current and immediately prior major version of such software. We are not required to support versions of the Software other than the most current version. You will notify Entrupy thirty (30) days prior to making any modifications or updates to any of your software that may impact Entrupy’s software, software development kit or integration with your mobile applications, or systems. Entrupy is not responsible or in any way liable for changes you make to your software that impact performance or use of any Software licensed to you by Entrupy.

(b) While we endeavor to keep the System available 24/7/365, service outages can and will occur, and we do not guarantee uptime or that the System will be continuously available or error free. Certain authentications may require additional review or follow up, which may result in a delay in receipt of applicable results.

5.2 Hardware Support.

In the event that you are unable to access or use the Software as a result of defective Hardware (to the extent Entrupy provided you with any Hardware), you shall notify Entrupy via email at support@entrupy.com. Entrupy has no obligation to provide support for any Hardware that has been leased to you for longer than two (2) years from the date Entrupy delivered the Hardware to you. If an issue concerning Hardware that has been leased for less than (2) two years cannot be resolved remotely, Entrupy may, at its sole discretion, repair or ship replacement Hardware (if applicable) after receipt of the defective Hardware from you. If you have (a) met your maintenance responsibility under this Agreement, and (b) leased the Hardware from Entrupy for less than two (2) years, then the replacement will be at no cost to you; otherwise, you will pay Entrupy the applicable fees and costs for repairing or replacing such Hardware as made available at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/sneakers/ for equipment used to authenticate Sneakers, or at https://entrupy.com/replacement-fees/luxury/ for all other items, and as may be amended from time to time. You shall be responsible for any and all damage to the Hardware as a result of unauthorized downloads, vandalism, abuse, neglect or force majeure, regardless of whether such vandalism, abuse, neglect, or force majeure is caused by you or any other third party to whom you have granted access. By way of example and not limitation, damage caused by exposure to extreme conditions (heat, moisture) or improper handling (drops, impact) will be considered damage for which you are responsible.

5.3 Contacting Support.

Support may be reached anytime via email at support@entrupy.com and we will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to such requests within one business day of submission.

6.3 Connectivity.

You and your Users are responsible for any network or internet connectivity required to access or use the Hardware, System, or Software. An internet connection is required to access the System’s cloud-based Software elements. The Hardware must connect to the internet to submit Images to the System for verification.

6.4 General.

In addition to obligations identified elsewhere in this Agreement, you will provide access to such information, personnel and systems we reasonably require to support the Hardware, System, or Software.

6.5 Non-disparagement.

Currently, Entrupy uses Checkout.com Group and its affiliates as its third party payment service (e.g., card acceptance, merchant settlement, and related services) and therefore by making any payments on or through Entrupy’s website or application, you agree to be bound by Checkout.com’s privacy policy (currently accessible at https://www.checkout.com/legal/privacy-policy) and its terms of service (currently accessible at https://www.checkout.com/legal/terms-and-policies) and hereby consent and authorize Entrupy and Checkout.com to share any information and payment instructions you provide to the other to complete your transactions. Entrupy reserves the right to change its Payment Processor(s) with or without notice to you.
