Services

License Grant
Subject to the terms of this Agreement and payment of the applicable fees, MAD grants Customer, during the term, a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Platform solely to respond to calls from Connected Elevators, remotely view the interior of the applicable Connected Elevators, and communicate with passengers.
Ownership
MAD and its licensors retain all right, title and interest, including all intellectual property rights, in and to the Platform, software, documentation, updates and improvements, MAD’s trademarks, and any feedback, usage data, analytics and derivative works, including de-identified or aggregated data derived from the Services. No rights are granted except as expressly set out in this Agreement.
Service Commitments
MAD will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a 99.9% uptime target, maintain security safeguards, encrypt data (TLS 1.2+), provide authentication controls, and maintain and update the Platform in accordance with industry standards.
Fees
Customer agrees to pay monthly fees per elevator, in Canadian dollars (CAD), as outlined in Schedule A. Billing is monthly in arrears based on the maximum number of elevators connected during the period. MAD will add or remove Connected Elevators from Customer’s account upon Customer’s written request, and will provide a list of the Connected Elevators on Customer’s account with each invoice. Payment terms are NET 30 with a late fee of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, whichever is lower.
Taxes
All fees are exclusive of taxes. Customer is responsible for all goods and services tax (GST), harmonized sales tax (HST), provincial sales taxes (including PST and QST), excise, and similar taxes, duties, and governmental charges arising from the Services, excluding taxes based on MAD’s net income. If MAD is required to collect or remit such taxes, they will be invoiced to and paid by Customer.
Term and Termination
This Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and continue for an initial term of six (6) months (the “Initial Term”). Following the Initial Term, this Agreement shall automatically renew on a month-to-month basis (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless either party provides at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of non-renewal or termination.
Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Services are subscription-based and that this Agreement will automatically renew for successive renewal terms unless Customer cancels by providing at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to MAD at the notice address set out in this Agreement (or by such other cancellation method as MAD makes available).
Termination of this Agreement shall not relieve Customer of any obligation to pay fees accrued prior to the effective date of termination. Any unpaid amounts shall become immediately due and payable upon termination.
Termination for Convenience
MAD may terminate this Agreement, or suspend or discontinue any or all of the Services, for any reason or no reason, at any time, upon ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Customer, without liability or penalty to MAD. Upon any termination for convenience by MAD, Customer remains liable for all fees accrued through the effective date of termination, and MAD will have no obligation to refund any prepaid fees except, at MAD’s sole discretion, a pro-rated portion of prepaid fees for Services not yet rendered.
Fee Changes
MAD may modify pricing upon one hundred eighty (180) days’ written notice. Customer may terminate without penalty within thirty (30) days of such notice if it does not accept the revised pricing.
Suspension
MAD may suspend Services if Customer fails to pay any amount within ten (10) days after written notice of non-payment, or fails to cure any other material breach within thirty (30) days after written notice of the breach. MAD may also suspend or interrupt any Services immediately, with notice to Customer as soon as reasonably practicable, to the extent MAD reasonably determines it is necessary to address a security threat or to prevent harm to the Platform, its networks, or other customers.
Use Restrictions
SIM cards and services are for authorized system use only. Unauthorized use may result in additional charges.
Privacy
MAD may collect, access, use, store, process, and transmit information, including personal information, solely as reasonably necessary to provide, maintain, support, secure, and improve the Services and Platform. Customer represents and warrants that it has obtained all necessary rights, authorizations, notices, and consents required under applicable law to permit the collection, use, disclosure, and processing of personal information by MAD in connection with the Services. Customer acknowledges and agrees that: a) the Services may rely on third-party telecommunications providers, cloud hosting providers, carriers, and technology vendors; b) data may be processed and stored in Canada, the United States, or other jurisdictions where MAD or its service providers operate; and c) electronic communications and data transmissions may not always be secure or uninterrupted. MAD will implement commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. However, Customer acknowledges that no method of electronic storage, transmission, or internet communication can be guaranteed to be completely secure or error-free. MAD will: (a) process personal information only on Customer’s behalf and for the purposes of this Agreement; (b) limit access to personnel and service providers who need it and are bound by confidentiality obligations; (c) notify Customer without undue delay after becoming aware of any unauthorized access to or disclosure of Customer personal information; (d) provide reasonable assistance with individual access requests and complaints relating to that information; and (e) delete Customer personal information within thirty (30) days after this Agreement ends, unless retention is required by law.
As between the parties, Customer retains ownership of Customer data submitted to or generated through the Services, excluding usage data and de-identified or aggregated data, which belong to MAD. Customer grants MAD a non-exclusive right to use such data solely as necessary to provide, maintain, support, secure, and improve the Services and fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.
