    (b) the Customer's breach of Section 5 (Restrictions on Use) to the extent consisting of: unauthorized sublicensing or redistribution of the Services; model extraction or theft prohibited by Sections 5.2 and 5.3; use of NuMind's Confidential Information to develop a competing product in breach of Section 5.7; or use of the Services after expiry or termination of the Agreement; and

    (c) fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence, to the extent liability for such cannot be excluded or limited under applicable mandatory law.

    14.6 NuMind shall not be liable for any loss or damage directly resulting from: (a) contamination of the Customer's systems by viruses, malicious code, or cyber-attacks or malicious acts of third parties, provided NuMind has implemented the security measures set forth in the DPA; (b) use of the Services in any manner not expressly authorized under the Agreement; (c) continued use of the Services after NuMind has issued a written recommendation to suspend use in connection with a known defect or security vulnerability; (d) use of the Services in an environment or configuration that does not meet NuMind's technical requirements as set out in the Documentation; or (e) use of the Services after expiry or termination of the Agreement.

    14.7 The Customer shall procure that all Authorised Users comply with the Agreement and shall remain liable to NuMind for any breach of the Agreement by its Authorised Users.

    The Customer is responsible for the accuracy, legality, and quality of the Customer Content it provides under the Agreement, and for ensuring that such Customer Content is submitted in compliance with applicable law. Nothing in this Section 14.7 affects NuMind's obligations as a processor of personal data under Section 12 and the applicable DPA.

    In the event of any breach of the Agreement by the Customer or its Authorised Users, NuMind may exercise any of its rights and remedies under the Agreement, including suspension of access pursuant to Section 16.3 and termination pursuant to Section 16.2 without prejudice to any claim for damages or injunctive relief available under applicable law.

    14.8 Notwithstanding the exclusive jurisdiction provisions of Section 18, nothing in the Agreement prevents either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of unauthorized use of its intellectual property or unauthorized disclosure of its Confidential Information, without prejudice to any other rights or remedies under the Agreement or applicable law.

    14.9 Subject to mandatory applicable laws, any claim or action arising out of or in connection with the Agreement must be commenced within two (2) years from the date on which the party bringing such claim knew, or reasonably should have known, of the facts giving rise to it.

    The shortened limitation period set out in this Section 14.9 shall not apply to: (a) claims arising out of fraud or wilful misconduct; (b) claims arising out of a party's obligations under applicable data protection law, including Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR); or (c) claims arising out of a party's obligations under applicable artificial intelligence regulation, including Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (AI Act).

    15. Artificial Intelligence

    The following provisions apply to the extent that the AI Act is applicable to either party pursuant to Article 2 of the AI Act:

    15.1 Qualification

    NuMind is the provider of the Services within the meaning of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 (the “AI Act”). The Customer is the deployer of the Services within the meaning of the AI Act when using the Services for its own purposes or those of its clients.

    15.2 Intended Purpose

    The intended purpose of the Services is AI-powered structured data extraction from documents, as described in the Documentation. The Customer shall not use the Services for any purpose materially different from the intended purpose without NuMind's prior written consent. Any material change in intended use may alter the risk classification of the Services and the applicable regulatory obligations of each party.

    15.3 Risk Classification

    NuMind shall inform the Customer in writing of the risk classification of the Services under the AI Act (including whether the Services constitute a high-risk AI system) as reasonably determined by NuMind. NuMind shall notify the Customer without undue delay if the risk classification changes following a material update to the Services, the Documentation, or applicable law.

    15.4 NuMind Provider Obligations

    As provider of the Services, NuMind is responsible for: (i) establishing and maintaining the quality management system required under Article 17 of the AI Act (if applicable); (ii) ensuring the conformity assessment required under Article 43 of the AI Act (if applicable); (iii) registering the Services in the EU AI database under Article 71 of the AI Act (if applicable); (iv) providing the Customer with adequate instructions for use, including information on the capabilities and limitations of the Services, performance metrics, and recommended human oversight measures; (v) establishing and maintaining a post-market monitoring system in accordance with Article 72 of the AI Act (if applicable), taking into account information provided by the Customer pursuant to Section 15.5(viii); (vi) notifying the relevant market surveillance authority of any serious incident in accordance with Article 73 of the AI Act (if applicable); and (vii) retaining the technical documentation for the Services for the period required under Article 18 of the AI Act (if applicable).

    15.5 Customer Deployer Obligations

    As deployer of the Services, the Customer is responsible for: (i) using the Services in accordance with the instructions for use provided by NuMind; (ii) implementing appropriate technical and organizational measures to ensure human oversight of Outputs; (iii) monitoring the operation of the Services and suspending use if a risk to safety or fundamental rights is identified; (iv) maintaining logs under the Customer's control for the minimum period required by applicable law, and in any event not less than six (6) months; (v) ensuring a sufficient level of AI literacy among Authorized Users and other persons dealing with the operation of the Services on the Customer's behalf; (vi) where required by the AI Act, informing natural persons that they are subject to the use of an AI system; (vii) where required by the AI Act, informing workers' representatives before deploying the Services in a context affecting working conditions; and (viii) promptly informing NuMind of any serious incident or malfunction identified during use of the Services, to the extent reasonably necessary to enable NuMind to fulfill its post-market monitoring obligations.

    15.6 Provider Requalification

    If the Customer: (i) places the Services on the market or puts them into service under its own name or trademark; (ii) makes a substantial modification to the Services; or (iii) changes the intended purpose of the Services such that they become a high-risk AI system, the Customer shall be deemed the provider of the resulting AI system under Article 25 of the AI Act and shall assume all corresponding regulatory obligations. Such actions shall also constitute a material breach of the Agreement entitling NuMind to terminate the Agreement in accordance with Section 16.2.

    15.7 Fundamental Rights Impact Assessment

    Where the Customer is required to conduct a fundamental rights impact assessment pursuant to Article 27 of the AI Act, NuMind shall, upon reasonable written request, provide the Customer with information necessary to conduct such assessment, to the extent such information is in NuMind's possession and not already available in the Documentation. The Customer shall treat such information as Confidential Information. The Customer remains solely responsible for the performance, methodology, and conclusions of such assessment.

    15.8 Regulatory Updates

    Each party shall promptly notify the other of any changes in applicable law, including the AI Act, that materially affect the parties' respective obligations with respect to the Services. The parties shall cooperate in good faith to update the Agreement as necessary to reflect such changes.

    16. Term, Renewal, Suspension and Termination

    16.1 Term and Renewal

    Subject to terms of specific Order Form or any other specific agreement, the Agreement takes effect on the Effective Date and shall be renewed by tacit agreement for successive one (1) month periods, unless either party provides written notice of non-renewal prior to the expiry of the then-current term.

    16.2 Termination

    In the event of a breach by either party of any of its obligations under the Agreement, the Agreement may be terminated at the fault of the defaulting party.

    Thus, in the event a party sends to the other notice of termination, by registered letter with acknowledgement of receipt, for failure to comply with one of its obligations under this Agreement: (i) if the breach may not be cured, the Agreement shall be immediately terminated by the non-defaulting party at the other party's fault following first presentation of said notice; (ii) if the breach may be cured, the defaulting Party shall have a period of fifteen (15) days as from the date of first presentation of said notice to definitively remedy to the breach or default. In this second case, if the breach or default is not definitively remedied within this period and the formal notice remains unsuccessful, the Agreement shall be terminated as of right at the defaulting party's fault.

    Termination is without prejudice to any damages to which the non-defaulting party may be entitled as a result of the breach or default by the defaulting party and to any recourse relating to the breach(es) found.

    The exercise of this right of termination does not exempt the defaulting party from fulfilling the obligations entered into until the termination takes effect, without prejudice to any recourse that the other Party may have.

    16.3 Suspension

    NuMind may suspend the Customer's access to the Services immediately upon written notice if: (a) the Customer materially breaches any obligation under Section 4 or Section 5; (b) the Customer's use of the Services creates a material security, legal, or regulatory compliance risk for NuMind or third parties; or (c) any undisputed amount remains unpaid fifteen (15) calendar days after written notice from NuMind. Suspension does not relieve the Customer of its obligation to pay all Fees accrued and consumed prior to suspension. NuMind may reinstate access upon remediation of the grounds for suspension, at NuMind's reasonable discretion.

    16.4 Effects of Termination

    16.4.1 Upon expiry or termination of the Agreement for any reason: (i) all licenses and API access rights granted to the Customer terminate immediately; (ii) the Customer shall immediately cease all use of the Services and API Credentials; and (iii) all Fees for Tokens consumed up to the effective date of termination shall remain due and become immediately payable.

    16.4.2 In accordance with Section 7.3, Customer Content and Outputs are deleted from NuMind's active production systems within fourteen (14) days of each API call. Residual copies may remain in encrypted backup or database history systems for up to thirty (30) days and are deleted through the ordinary backup rotation process. Any Customer Content held incidentally in connection with support services shall be deleted within thirty (30) calendar days after the Customer's written request or the effective termination date, unless retention is required by applicable law.

    16.4.3 All amounts already paid to NuMind are retained by NuMind, and all amounts due for Tokens consumed shall be immediately payable.

    16.4.4 The following Sections survive expiry or termination: Sections 1, 7.3, 7.4, 9 (Fees accrued prior to termination), 10, 11, 12, 13.4, 14, 15 (to the extent of obligations surviving by their nature), 16.4, and 19, together with any other provision that by its nature is intended to survive.

    17. Modifications to the Terms and the Services

    17.1 NuMind may modify these Terms at any time. In the event of any material modification, NuMind shall notify the Customer by email, or by any means agreed by the Parties where applicable, at least thirty (30) days before such modifications take effect. The Customer's continued access to or use of the Services following expiry of the notice period shall constitute the Customer's full acceptance of the modified Terms.

    17.2 If the Customer objects to the proposed modifications, it shall notify NuMind in writing before the end of the notice period. In such event, the Customer: (a) shall not access or use any new features or functionalities introduced or modified after the effective date of the modifications; and (b) may terminate the Agreement in accordance with Section 16 before the modifications take effect.

    17.3 NuMind may modify or discontinue the Services or any feature or functionality thereof at any time. Where a material change to the API or the Services would require the Customer to update its technical integration, NuMind shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice using the notification channels specified in Section 19.6, with as much lead time as is reasonably practicable.

    18. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

    The Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America.

    In the event of a dispute, the parties shall seek to resolve it amicably in good faith.

    If no amicable resolution is reached within one (1) month after written notice of the dispute, the courts of the State of Delaware, United States of America, shall have exclusive jurisdiction.

    19. General Provisions

    19.1 Force Majeure

    Neither party shall be liable for any delay in or failure to perform its obligations under the Agreement caused by an event beyond its reasonable control, including acts of government, acts of God, war, terrorism, pandemic, major Internet or infrastructure outages, labor disputes, or natural disasters, provided such event is (i) beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, (ii) unforeseeable at the time of execution of the applicable Order Form, and (iii) unavoidable despite the exercise of all reasonable measures. The affected party shall notify the other party promptly of any force majeure event. If such an event continues for more than sixty (60) calendar days, either party may terminate the Agreement upon written notice, without prejudice to any amounts already due.

    19.2 Subcontractors

    NuMind may use subcontractors and sub-processors to perform all or part of the Services, provided that NuMind remains responsible for the performance of the Services and for the acts and omissions of its subcontractors in connection with the Agreement. NuMind's use of sub-processors for the processing of personal data is governed by the DPA.

    19.3 Assignment

    The Customer shall be solely responsible for the performance of the Agreement, and in particular shall refrain from assigning or transferring the rights defined in the Agreement.

    In addition, and to avoid all doubt, any changes which could occur in the person of NuMind, such as for example change of control, merger, scission, takeover, partial business transfer, assignment, transfer to a subsidiary, as well as any commercial or legal agreement with a third party, shall have no effect whatsoever on the existence and performance of the Agreement between NuMind and the Customer.

    19.4 Publicity

    Unless the Customer notifies NuMind in writing at any time that it objects to being referenced, NuMind is authorized to identify the Customer as a customer and use the Customer's name, brand and logo on NuMind's website, customer lists, and standard sales and marketing materials, in each case in accordance with any brand guidelines made available by the Customer. The Customer may withdraw such permission on written notice, and NuMind shall cease such use upon such notice.

    In any event, these elements shall only be used in cooperation between the parties and in strict compliance with the Customer's image and reputation; the Customer retains full control of its image and may give NuMind any specific directions, agreements or refusal concerning the use of said elements within the framework of the present Agreement.

    19.5 Open-Source and Third-Party Components

    The Services may incorporate open-source or third-party components subject to their own license terms. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, such components are provided on an “as is” basis. NuMind shall provide information on applicable open-source licenses upon reasonable written request.

    19.6 Notices

    All notices under the Agreement shall be in writing. Routine operational notices may be sent by email to the contacts specified in the applicable Order Form. Formal notices relating to breach, termination, material claims, or registered mail obligations shall be sent by registered mail with acknowledgement of receipt (or an internationally recognized equivalent tracked delivery method) to the address defined above regarding NuMind and the address provided to the Customer regarding the latter. Either Party may update its notice details by written notice to the other party.

    19.7 Entire Agreement

    The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes all prior proposals, negotiations, discussions, representations, and understandings relating to that subject matter, whether written or oral.

    19.8 Waiver

    A failure or delay by either party in exercising any right or remedy under the Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of that right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict any future exercise of that right or remedy.

    19.9 Severability

    If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed severed from the Agreement and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that most closely reflects the parties' original intent.

    19.10 Independent Contractors

    The parties are independent contractors. The Agreement does not create, and shall not be construed to create, a partnership, joint venture, employment, agency, or fiduciary relationship between the parties.

    19.11 Electronic Signatures

    The Agreement, any Order Form, and any amendment may be executed by electronic signature or exchanged in electronic form, which shall have the same legal force and effect as original hand-written signatures.

    19.12 Customer Purchasing Terms

    Any purchase order, procurement portal term, supplier onboarding document, or other customer-generated document shall not amend or supplement the Agreement. In the event of any contradiction between these Terms and any general terms and conditions of purchase or any other general or special terms and conditions of the Customer, these Terms shall prevail.

    19.13 Language
