In addition, we each agree that disputes shall be arbitrated only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action.

III. WARRANTY, INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
- Merchant and Zumigo recognize that every business decision represents an assumption of risk and that neither party, in furnishing Information or the Zumigo Services to the other, underwrites or assumes the other’s risk in any manner. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS EXHIBIT A, OR ANY AMENDMENT HERETO, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE ZUMIGO SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” BASIS AND EACH PARTY HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL OTHER PROMISES, REPRESENTATIVES, GUARANTEES AND WARRANTIES WHETHER EXPRESS OF IMPLIED OR STATUTORY REGARDING THE ACCURACY, CORRECTNESS, COMPLETENESS, CURRENTNESS, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE INFORMATION OR SERVICES PROVIDED TO THE OTHER. NEITHER PARTY, NOR ANY OF ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, AFFILIATED COMPANIES (“AFFILIATED PERSONS AND ENTITIES”) WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OR INJURY RELATING TO, ARISING OUT OF, OR CAUSED IN WHOLE OR IN PART BY, THEIR ACTS OR OMISSIONS, EVEN IF NEGLIGENT, RELATING TO THE ACCURACY, CORRECTNESS, COMPLETENESS OR CURRENTNESS OF THE ZUMIGO SERVICES OR ANY INFORMATION.

IV. CONFIDENTIALITY
Merchant agrees to hold in confidence all Zumigo Information received through the Zumigo Services provided by Zumigo, except as provided in Section I.3. Each party acknowledges that all other materials and information disclosed by a party (“Discloser”) to the other party (“Recipient“) in connection with the performance of this Exhibit A, consist of confidential and proprietary data (collectively, the “Confidential Information”). Each Recipient will hold the Confidential Information in strict confidence, and will restrict its use of Confidential Information to the purposes anticipated in this Exhibit A. If the law or legal process requires Recipient to disclose Confidential Information, Recipient will notify the Discloser of the request. Thereafter, the Discloser may seek a protective order or waive the confidentiality requirements of this Exhibit A, provided that Recipient may only disclose the minimum amount of information necessary to comply with the requirement. Recipient will not be obligated to hold confidential any information from the Discloser which (a) is or becomes publicly known, (b) is received from any person or entity who, to the best of Recipient’s knowledge, has no duty of confidentiality to the Discloser, (c) was already known to Recipient prior to the disclosure, and that knowledge was evidenced in writing prior to the date of the other party’s disclosure, or (d) is developed by the Recipient without using any of the Disclosers information. The rights and obligations of this Section IV (i) with respect to confidential and proprietary data that constitutes a “trade secret” (as defined by applicable law), which includes without limitation all consumer report information received through the Zumigo Services, will survive the termination of this Exhibit A for so long as such Confidential Information remains a trade secret under applicable law; and (ii) with respect to all other Confidential Information, will survive the termination of this Exhibit A for the longer of two (2) years from termination, or the confidentiality period required by applicable law. Each party acknowledges that unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information by a party may irreparably damage the other party in such a way that adequate compensation could not be obtained from damages in an action at law. Accordingly, the actual or threatened unauthorized disclosure or use of any Confidential Information shall give the Discloser the right to seek injunctive relief restraining such unauthorized disclosure or use, in addition to any other remedy otherwise available (including reasonable attorneys’ fees). Each party hereby waives the posting of a bond with respect to any action for injunctive relief.
Merchant understands that Zumigo will keep the Consumer Information (as defined below) provided by Merchants or otherwise collected from Merchant’s use of the Zumigo Services for as long as it remains necessary for the identified purpose or as required by law, which may extend beyond the termination of our relationship with Merchant. Zumigo may store some information indefinitely for operational purposes, such as technical support and abuse prevention. Other data such as web server logs or store sales reports are only kept as long as space is available for them. Please note that if a Merchant or ecommerce platform requests that Zumigo delete its Consumer Information, Zumigo will use its best efforts to so; however, it may not be possible to completely delete all of it due to technological and legal constraints.
The retention period is determined by various criteria such as the type of user, the services to which you subscribe, and the nature of our relationship. The retention period can also be modified based on internal changes in auditing requirements and/or mandatory retention periods provided by law and statute of limitations.

A soft inquiry will be place on the subject Consumer’s consumer file indicating that such file was accessed in connection with a request by Merchant (including the date of access), which was at the subject Consumer’s request.
- Merchant will not interpret the failure of Zumigo to verify an account number as an indication of fraud or a statement regarding that consumer’s credit worthiness, because the inability to verify may result from one or more factors unrelated to attempted fraud or credit worthiness, including, without limitation, the inability to verify debit cards or account numbers that are truncated or encrypted in the credit file.
