4. CONFIDENTIALITY.
- Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means all written or oral information, disclosed by one party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other (the “Receiving Party”), related to the business, products, solutions, services, or operations of the Disclosing Party, or a third party, that has been identified as confidential or that by the nature of the information ought reasonably to be treated as confidential, including the terms of these Terms of Service.
- Use and Disclosure. Each Receiving Party agrees that it will not disclose the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to anyone except its employees, contractors, and third-party service providers and advisors who have a need to know and are bound by confidentiality obligations no less restrictive than these Terms of Service, unless authorized by the Disclosing Party (e.g., through the Supplier Portal interface). Confidential Information shall not include information that is: (a) generally known to the public without breach of these Terms of Service; (b) obtained by the Receiving Party from another source not known to have an obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party; (c) at the time of disclosure to the Receiving Party, already in the possession of the receiving party free of any confidentiality obligation; (d) independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party; or (e) required by applicable law or regulation to be disclosed, provided that the Receiving Party shall give the Disclosing Party prompt notice of any such requested disclosure and shall comply with any valid protective order that is obtained by such other party. For the purposes of clarity, you acknowledge that through uploading and transmitting Your Content through the Supplier Portal to other retail or commercial partners will not be deemed of this Section 4 (Confidentiality).

10. GENERAL TERMS
- These Terms of Service are the entire agreement concerning the subject matter contemplated herein and supersede any prior or concurrent communications.
- If you are an individual accepting these terms on behalf of an entity, you represent that you have the legal authority to enter into this agreement on that entity's behalf.
- We may update these Terms of Service by providing you with reasonable notice. If, in our sole judgment, an update materially and detrimentally impacts your rights or obligations, we will provide at least 30 days’ notice before the update goes into effect, unless the update is necessary for us to comply with applicable law, in which case we will provide you with as much notice as reasonably possible. Any other updates will be effective on the date we notify you of the updated Terms of Service. Your continued use of, or access to, the Supplier Portal after an update goes into effect will constitute acceptance of the update. If you do not agree with an update, you may terminate your acceptance of these Terms of Service under Section 9 (Termination).
- We may assign these Terms of Service to any of our affiliates, or to a third party that succeeds to all or substantially all of our business and assets relating to the subject matter of these Terms of Service, whether by sale, merger, operation of law or otherwise.
- If any portion of these Terms of Service is held invalid or unenforceable, the remainder will remain in full force and effect.
- The failure of either party to insist upon strict performance of any provision of these Terms of Service is not to be construed as a waiver of any provision or right.
- These Terms of Service are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware (USA) without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
- CLASS ACTION WAIVER/MANDATORY ARBITRATION/WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT INCLUDES AN AGREEMENT TO MANDATORY ARBITRATION, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SUPPLIER PORTAL TO BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN PROCEED IN COURT. THIS SECTION ALSO INCLUDES A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO PROCEED WITH ANY DISPUTE INDIVIDUALLY AND NOT AS PART OF A CLASS ACTION. THIS SECTION ALSO INCLUDES A JURY WAIVER.
-
- You agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of your use of any of Supplier Portal and these Terms of Services be final and binding arbitration. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under the Agreement (despite any other choice of law provision). To the extent that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law do not supply substantive law necessary for the resolution of any disputes or claims, the laws of the State of Delaware shall apply.
- Arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). If the arbitration results in an award, then judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
- NO ARBITRATION OR OTHER CLAIM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE JOINED TO ANY OTHER ARBITRATION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM INVOLVING ANY OTHER CURRENT OR FORMER USER OF THE SUPPLIER PORTAL, AND NO CLASS ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE PERMITTED. In the event that this Class Action Waiver is deemed unenforceable, then any putative class action may only proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration.
- WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND SALSIFY BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US.
- In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to this Agreement be instituted more than two (2) years after the cause of action arose.
