on which these Terms of Service appear) ("Acceptance"), you are legally bound and become a party to a
legal contract between you and the specific affiliate of Resideo Technologies,
Inc. identified in the Resideo Pro Terms or the relevant Service-Specific Terms

receive operational, transactional and other legally
required correspondence from us such as registration confirmations, security
notifications, account actions, purchase receipts, downtime notifications,
notifications about changes in these Terms of Service, recall notices or end of

order for the Services to function as described, in order for the
Services to comply with applicable laws or for us to meet our legal obligations
or exercise our rights under these Terms of Service or applicable laws.
5.4. We may also send you and your Users marketing communications in accordance with your and
your Users' marketing preferences and applicable law. You are able to opt-out
from marketing communications at any time and free of charge, either by using

6.1. Fees, if any, together with payment timing and
related information are stated in the applicable Service-Specific Terms, and shall be subject to change upon notice. To the
extent permitted by applicable law, disputes as to invoices must be accompanied
by detailed supporting information and if not raised within 15 days following
the invoice date are deemed waived. We reserve the right to correct any
incorrect invoices which must be paid by the original invoice payment due date
or the issuance date of the corrected invoice, whichever is later.
6.2. Your obligation to pay is not contingent on
our performance under different agreements or your receipt of payment from
other parties and you may not set off any invoiced amounts against any amount
due from us.
6.3. All Fees shall be net of any and all present
or future taxes, duties, levies, imposts, assessments or other charges
(including penalties, interest and other additions thereto) that are imposed by
or on behalf of any political subdivision or territory or possession of any
such country or any authority or agency therein or thereof having power to tax,
telecommunications fees or charges, VAT, in each case, including without
limitation royalties, or other fees and expenses (“Taxes”) and you shall have the obligation to pay any and all such
Taxes deemed due and payable arising out of or in connection with the provision
of the Services by us to you or your provision of your own services that are,
in part, reliant on the Services to any third party or end user, regardless of
whether we separately invoice for them. In addition, all payments by you under
these Terms of Service will be made free and clear of and without deduction or
withholding for or on account of any Taxes unless such withholding or deduction
is required by law. If you are required by law to make any such withholding or
deduction, you will pay to us such additional amounts as may be necessary so that
the net amount received by us after deduction or withholding for or on account
of any such present or future Taxes will not be less than the amount then due
and payable under these Terms of Service. If any payment to us is subject to
withholding tax, you must remit such amount to the appropriate authority in
accordance with any applicable law. Delay or failure to pay any such amounts
shall be deemed a material breach of these Terms of Service for which you shall
indemnify, defend and hold us harmless. For the
avoidance of doubt, you shall pay any corresponding taxes to the appropriate
taxing agency, including but not limited to VAT. You will provide us with
official receipts issued by the appropriate authority to establish that any
such withholding or other applicable taxes have been paid, within 30 days
following the invoice date.
6.4. We may invoice sales, digital and related
taxes (e.g. VAT) unless you provide a valid exemption
certificate in advance.
6.5. If you are delinquent in your payment of
applicable Fees, we may, without prejudice to any other legal or equitable
remedies, suspend performance of the Services with or without prior notice,
charge a late payment Fee of 1.5% per month (or the maximum permitted by
applicable law, if lower) and collection costs including reasonable attorneys’
and collection fees.
6.6. You understand and agree that our credit
group, or agent, has your permission to conduct a credit investigation
including, but not limited to bank and trade references and credit bureaus in
connection with the provision of credit or the Services to you. A Credit
Application may be provided to you. We may take remedial action or impose
additional credit obligations if there is an adverse change in your
creditworthiness.
7.1. These Terms of Service become effective on the
Service Commencement Date and continue for the duration of your use of the
Services (or for the period specified in the relevant Service-Specific Terms,
if shorter) unless terminated earlier by us pursuant to this Section or the
relevant Service-Specific Terms (the “Term”).
7.2. We may terminate the Terms of Service (and/or
any particular Use Rights or Service-Specific Terms)
if you:
7.2.1. have breached or are in breach of any of the
Terms of Service, including if you fail to pay any Fees when due;
7.2.2. you have used or are using the Services in a
manner that is fraudulent, infringes our IPR, or may subject us to third party liability;

that has or is likely (in our opinion) to cause us to be in violation of
applicable laws or to negatively affect our reputation and/or goodwill;

from creditors or wind down operations; and/or
7.2.5. in our reasonable business judgment, we have
determined that the continuation of the provision of relevant Services is
either not commercially feasible or not in line with our corporate strategy.
7.3. Instead of termination, we may, with or
without notice, suspend Use Rights if we determine that you or Users are or may
violate the Terms of Service. During suspension, you and Users will not have
access to all or part of the Services and may be unable to access Input
Data.
7.4. Upon termination or expiry, you must:
7.4.1. pay all Fees due;

Service-Specific Terms, reasonable assistance and cooperation regarding the

addition to those listed in these Terms of Service and you agree that any third party supplier shall have the right to enforce such
restrictions with respect to such third party’s software. Resideo Technologies, the Resideo

Inc., or its subsidiaries or affiliates. Our status (and that of any identified
contributors) as the authors of the Services must always be acknowledged.

any of our IPR. Each Service is licensed as a single product and its component
parts may not be separated for use on more than one computer.
8.3. You retain all rights over Input Data and you are solely responsible for securing and backing
up your Input Data.

including but not limited to, your tradenames, trademarks, logos) to provide,
protect, improve or develop the Services and our other products or services. You
hereby certify that you own all rights, title and
interest in and to the Input Data, or otherwise have the right and license to
use such Input Data.
8.5. Your Input Data must be of a professional
nature, not offensive or in violation of any law or regulation. If you use the
Services to display your Input Data on Devices not owned by you (for example,
using the Services to show your logo on end user Devices), you must represent
and warrant that you have all necessary rights and permissions to do so. We may
disclose your identity to any third party who is claiming that your Input Data
constitutes a violation of their rights (including their IPR and their right to
privacy).
8.6. We and our Affiliates may also use Input Data
for any other purpose provided it is in an anonymized form that does not
identify you. You waive all IPR in your
Feedback and your Feedback shall be deemed to be non-confidential we shall have
no obligation of any kind with respect to such Feedback and shall be free to
reproduce, use, disclose and distribute the Feedback to others without
limitation.
8.7. All information, analysis, insights, inventions and algorithms derived from Input Data and/or
Feedback by Resideo or its Affiliates (but excluding the Input Data itself) and

Services.

strictest confidence and shall not, without the written consent of the
disclosing party, be used or disclosed except to the receiving party’s
Affiliates, employees and service providers who are bound to substantially
similar obligations of confidentiality and have a need to know. All Confidential Information shall remain the
property of the disclosing party. Each party will be responsible for any
breaches of the confidentiality obligations by its Affiliates, employees or service
providers or Users. Neither party will use Confidential Information received
from the other party to compete with the other party or for any purpose other
than the fulfilment of these Terms of Service. The receiving party will keep
the disclosing party's Confidential Information confidential for 10 years from
disclosure, with the exception that software comprised in the Services will be
kept confidential perpetually. Without
limiting the foregoing, the receiving party may, if under order or subpoena,
disclose Confidential Information as required under judicial, legislative, or
administrative/regulatory investigations or proceedings; provided that, if
permitted and reasonably practicable, the receiving party must provide the
disclosing party with written notice of the disclosure, including advance notice and
reasonable opportunity to contest or limit the disclosure.
9.2. The Services' contents and their internal
operation, workings and processes are our Confidential Information. Input Data
is your Confidential Information except if in an anonymized form that does not
identify you or any individual. Personal Data comprised in Confidential
Information is governed by the Data Privacy Agreement. To the extent
information or contents of the Services are not recognized as trade secrets or
otherwise protected by our IPR in any jurisdiction, such information and
contents shall be deemed confidential, non-public information to be held by you
in strictest confidence and not, without our express written consent, used or
disclosed except to those who have a need to know and agree to be bound by this
Section.
9.3. Each party hereby grants to the other party a
non-exclusive license to use its Confidential Information disclosed in
connection with these Terms of Service solely for performance of the
recipient’s obligations under these Terms of Service. Except as expressly

Confidential Information or assign its rights or obligations under this Section
without the prior written consent of the disclosing party. All other transfers
or assignments shall be null and void.
9.4. The parties acknowledge that damages for
violation of the confidentiality obligations of this Section may be inadequate,
and the parties agree that injunctive relief for any breach of these Terms of
Service by the recipient of Confidential Information may be had in addition to
any other remedies available.

the relevant Service-Specific Terms or upon request of the disclosing party,
whichever occurs first, the recipient will promptly return to the disclosing
party all Confidential Information received pursuant to the Terms of Service or
the relevant Service-Specific Terms (as applicable), together with any and all
copies thereof, or, if the disclosing party so requests, the recipient will
destroy all such Confidential Information and provide the disclosing party with
a written certification of the destruction.
9.6. You will not publicly announce or disclose the
existence of your commercial relationship with us, or
advertise or release any publicity regarding such commercial relationship,
except where permitted under relevant ServiceSpecific
Terms or with our prior written consent.

you provide Personal Data to us (whether as part of Input Data, Feedback,
Confidential Information or as part of your and/or your User's use of the
Service), our Data Privacy Agreement applies.
10.2. Security measures and requirements for the
Services, if any, are stated in the applicable Service-Specific Terms (the “Security Policy”). If no additional

Data and Input Data and follow industry-standard security practices;

your requirements or that the Services will always be available, uninterrupted,
error-free or free of charge (where we do not
currently require Fees to be paid).
11.3. Subject always to the relevant
Service-Specific Terms, software provided by us in a Service will operate as
described by the Documentation for 30 days from the date of download or
installation, as applicable. Your sole remedy and our only liability for breach

the nonconforming portion and, if we cannot accomplish a repair or provide a
replacement after reasonable efforts to do so, refund to you any pre-paid but
unused Fees in respect of such software on a pro-rata basis. This is the only
warranty and only remedies we provide with respect to such software.

public websites on which these Terms of Service appear or from which they are
