Any attempt to do so is a violation of the rights of ICS and its licensors. If you breach these restrictions, you may be subject to prosecution and damages. The terms of the license will govern any upgrades provided by ICS that replace and/or supplement the original Services, unless such upgrade is accompanied by a separate license in which case the terms of that license will govern.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this TOS, the obligations of ICS set forth in this TOS do not extend to any software or materials which may be made available by ICS, or otherwise obtained or used by you, subject to an open source license or other open source terms ("Open Source Software"). Any third-party code that may be incorporated in the Software is covered by the applicable open source or third-party license TOS, if any, authorizing use of such code. You agree that all Open Source Software shall be and shall remain subject to the terms and conditions under which it is provided. You shall not use or combine the Open Source Software with the Services or other items in any manner that would subject the Services to open source terms and conditions.
The Services are protected by copyright laws and international treaty provisions, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties. All rights, title and interest in and to the Services, including but not limited to copyrights, patent rights, trade secrets and other intellectual property rights, are owned by ICS or its suppliers. Except as set forth in this TOS, no other license is granted with respect to any rights to patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trademarks, or any other rights in respect to the Services.

You acknowledge that ICS may from time to time issue upgraded versions of the Mobile Software, and may automatically electronically upgrade the version of the Mobile Software that you are using on your mobile device.
The following applies to any Mobile Software you acquire from Apple's App Store ("App Store-Sourced Software"): you acknowledge and agree that this TOS is solely between you and ICS, not Apple, and that Apple has no responsibility for the App Store-Sourced Software or content thereof. Your use of the App Store-Sourced Software must comply with the App Store Terms of Service. You acknowledge that Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App Store-Sourced Software. In the event of any failure of the App Store-Sourced Software to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the App Store-Sourced Software to you; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App Store-Sourced Software, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be solely governed by this TOS and any law applicable to ICS as provider of the software.

If your device is operating iOS, ICS strongly recommends that you enable device protection by configuring a passcode for your device. ICS uses the data protection APIs in your Apple device to provide an additional layer of security for your NetSfere related application data, including your security keys and authentication tokens. This application data will remain protected and secure, provided that you use the passcode security feature that comes with your device. Use the passcode settings in your device to maximize the security of your device: (1) Set Require Passcode to "Immediately"; (2) Use longer alphanumeric passcodes; and (3) enable "Erase Data" to automatically erase the device after ten failed passcode attempts. Your unauthorized access to the operating system of the device may result in loss of the security functionality of the Services.
"Confidential Information" means any non-public data, information and other materials regarding the products, Software, Services, prices and discounts, or business of a party (and/or of third parties, to the extent a party is bound to protect the confidentiality of any third parties' information) provided by a party, its employees, contractors or affiliates ("Disclosing Party") to the other party ("Receiving Party") where such information is marked or otherwise communicated as being "proprietary" or "confidential" or the like, or where such information should, by its nature, be reasonably considered to be confidential and/or proprietary. The parties agree, without limiting the foregoing, that any performance and security data, product roadmaps, source code, benchmark results, and technical information relating to the Services, including pricing information, shall be deemed the Confidential Information of ICS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include information which: (i) is already known to the Receiving Party without the obligations of confidentiality prior to disclosure by the Disclosing Party; (ii) becomes publicly available without fault of the Receiving Party; (iii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without restriction as to disclosure, or is approved for release by written authorization of the Disclosing Party; (iv) is independently developed or created by the Receiving Party without use of the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information; or (v) is required to be disclosed by law or governmental regulation, provided that the Receiving Party provides reasonable notice to Disclosing Party of such required disclosure to the extent allowed by applicable law, and reasonably cooperates with the Disclosing Party in limiting such disclosure. Except as expressly authorized herein, the Receiving Party shall: (i) use the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party only to perform hereunder or exercise rights granted to it hereunder; and (ii) treat all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in the same manner as it treats its own similar proprietary information, but in no case will the degree of care be less than reasonable care.
You agree to defend, indemnify, hold harmless and defend ICS and its officers, shareholders, predecessors, successors in interest, directors, employees, agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors and suppliers from and against any and all claims, charges, complaints, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees and expert fees) due to, arising out of or relating in any way to your use of, or access to, the Services.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ICS BE LIABLE FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR ANY SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT OR SIMILAR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES OR ANY DATA SUPPLIED THEREIN OR THEREWITH EVEN IF ICS OR ANYONE ELSE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO CASE SHALL ICS' LIABILITY EXCEED THE SERVICE FEES PAID BY YOU DURING THE THREE (3) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE FIRST EVENT OR OCCURRENCE GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR PERSONAL INJURY, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY STATED WARRANTY REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Upon such termination, you agree to destroy the Software and cease using the Services.
This TOS shall be governed by the laws of the State of Illinois as such laws are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within Illinois between Illinois residents and by the laws of the United States. You consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Cook County, Illinois. You agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (1980) will not apply to this TOS. Your use of the Services may also be subject to other local, state, national, or international laws.

The remainder of the TOS shall remain in full force and effect.
