All payments made by you to us under this Agreement will be made free and clear of any deduction or withholding Taxes and Fees, as may be required by applicable Law. If any such deduction or withholding Taxes and Fees (including domestic or cross-border withholding taxes) are required on any payment, you will pay such additional amounts as necessary, such that the net amount received by us is equal to the amount then due and payable under this Agreement. We will provide you with such tax forms as reasonably requested in order to reduce or eliminate the amount of any withholding or deduction for taxes in respect of payments made under this Agreement. You also agree to provide Spotlight with withholding tax certificates, upon Spotlight’s request, to the extent a withholding certificate is required to be sent to Spotlight under applicable Law, and you agree that Spotlight may provide your withholding tax certificate to the appropriate taxing authority without further notice to you.

If the VAT registration number is not valid, Spotlight reserves the right to nevertheless charge the applicable VAT to you. For the avoidance of doubt, if VAT is due by you to a taxing authority, through the reverse charge or other similar mechanism, you are solely responsible for paying those amounts to the relevant taxing authority, such that Spotlight receives the full amount of payment required.
- 13.6 Tax Determination. Tax determination is principally based on the location where you have established your business based on your Customer Data, or if you are an individual, where you permanently reside. This location will be defined by Spotlight as your ‘Sold To’ address.

If you subscribe to the Services and those Services are used and enjoyed by a branch or individual in a country that is different to your location as determined pursuant to Section 13.6, you acknowledge that you will inform Spotlight of the Services that have been allocated, and you acknowledge that Spotlight reserves the right to charge Taxes and Fees based on the use and enjoyment of those Services.
- 13.8 Disclosures to Taxing Authorities. In accordance with applicable tax Law, and notwithstanding any of Spotlight’s notice obligations that may arise under this Agreement, including but not limited to, Section 17.4 or pursuant to our Government Request Guide, we may disclose Customer information, including Customer Confidential Information, to a tax authority without notice to you before or after the disclosure.

In order to terminate or modify the affected Services, you must provide notice to Spotlight, via the billing portal (if available for your account) or in an email to support@spotlightsystems.net, in accordance with the Renewal Notice Period. Any statutory rights you may have under the applicable Laws to terminate your Services at an earlier time during the Initial Subscription Term or any given Renewal Term remains unaffected by this clause, and, if required by applicable Law, we will send you a reminder notice prior to the commencement date of the Renewal Term (and in accordance with the notice periods specified in this Agreement or other such deadline set by applicable Law that may apply to you) reminding you of your right to terminate the affected Services and how to do so.

- 14.4 Effect of Termination or Suspension. Upon any termination of this Agreement, you must cease any further use of the Services and Software, except for any access rights granted in Section 14.5. No expiration or termination of this Agreement will affect your obligation to pay all Charges that may have become due before such expiration or termination, including that Spotlight may retain any Charges previously paid by you if this Agreement is terminated, unless prohibited by applicable Law. If your Services are suspended for your failure to comply with this Agreement, you will be liable for all Charges due and owing during the period of suspension.
- 14.5 Deletion and Access to Customer Content After Termination.

- CONFIDENTIALITY
- 17.1 Definition. “Confidential Information” means: (i) with respect to Spotlight, any information disclosed by, for, or on behalf of Spotlight, directly or indirectly, to you or any End User in connection with this Agreement, the Services or Software, or learned or accessed by you or any End User in connection with the Services or Software, including business information, development plans, product roadmap details, systems, strategic plans, source code, services, products, pricing, methods, processes, financial data, programs, trade secrets, know-how, and marketing plans, however it is conveyed in any form or medium, together with all information derived from the foregoing, and any other information that is designated as being confidential (whether or not it is marked as “confidential”) or which is known by you or the End User or reasonably should be understood by you or the End User to be confidential (“Spotlight Confidential Information”); and (ii) with respect to you, any information disclosed by you to Spotlight that (a) must be kept confidential pursuant to applicable Law or (b) is sensitive security and technical information that is clearly and conspicuously marked as “confidential” by you (“Customer Confidential Information”). Customer Content is not Customer Confidential Information; however, Customer Content will be protected in accordance with Section 10.3.
- 17.2 Exclusions. Confidential Information does not include information that: (i) is already rightfully known to the receiving party at the time it is received, free from any obligation to keep such information confidential; (ii) becomes publicly known or available through no act or omission of the receiving party or any third party; (iii) is rightfully received from a third party without restriction and without breach of this Agreement; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without the use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.
- 17.3 Obligation of Confidentiality. You and Spotlight shall take reasonable steps to maintain the confidentiality of each other’s Confidential Information using measures that are at least as protective as those taken to protect its own information of a similar sensitivity, but in no event using less than a reasonable standard of care. Neither you nor Spotlight will disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to any person or entity except to its employees, advisors, and attorneys who have a strict need to know the information in connection with this Agreement and who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as the provisions herein. In addition to the foregoing permitted disclosures, Spotlight also may disclose Customer Confidential Information to its consultants, contractors, service providers, subprocessors, and other third parties who are bound by confidentiality obligations at least as protective as the confidentiality provisions herein.
- 17.4 Permitted and Compelled Disclosures. Notwithstanding the restrictions in this Section 17 and without limiting any other rights of Spotlight, including our disclosure rights without notice in Section 13.8, we may disclose Customer Confidential Information received in connection with this Agreement, the Services, or Software to the extent authorized in our Government Request Guide or as required by applicable Law; provided, however, that Spotlight will first notify you, unless providing such notice or timely notice is: (i) prohibited by applicable Law; or (ii) determined by Spotlight in its sole discretion to be (a) a risk or potential risk of harm to a person or to the health of a person, (b) a risk or potential risk of damage to property, (c) an emergency, or (d) a threat to the Services, Software, or Spotlight’s rights or property.
