Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, any payment required to cure a Customer breach must be remitted to CacheFly by official bank check or wire transfer.

Customer acknowledges and agrees that the Early Termination Charge reflects a reasonable estimate of the damages incurred by CacheFly as a result of an early termination, and is not a penalty.

7.3 Survival

The expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason will not affect the accrued rights of the Parties or the right of either Party to sue for damages arising from a breach of this Agreement. Notwithstanding expiration or termination of this Agreement, (i) Customer shall remain liable to pay to CacheFly all Fees and other amounts due or accruing on or prior to the effective date of such expiration or termination, and (ii) the rights and obligations of the Parties set forth in this Agreement which by their terms survive the termination of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect beyond the effective date of expiration or termination of this Agreement, including Sections 2.1.5, 2.2.4, 3.1, 3.3.2, 3.3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.8, 4, 6.2, 7, and 9 through 16.

9.2 Non-Disclosure

Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the receiving Party shall not, and shall not permit any other Person to, (i) use Confidential Information for any purpose other than the performance of the receiving Party’s obligations or exercise of its rights under this Agreement, or (ii) divulge such Confidential Information, without the disclosing Party’s prior written consent, except to those employees and independent contractors who have a need to know such Confidential Information for purposes of carrying out the receiving Party’s obligations or exercising the receiving Party’s rights under this Agreement.

Services Description

CacheFly provides a Content Delivery Network (“CDN”) which delivers web files physically closer (and thereby, significantly faster) to Customers’ end-users than traditional single-location web hosting, utilizing a geographically distributed network of servers located in high-availability data centers across the Internet (the “CacheFly Network”).

Fees

CacheFly offers three service models – either a CDN Subscription Plan, Pay-as-You-Go Plan, or custom plans. Each plan is comprised of two components – data transfer, and data storage. Data transfer is measured between the CacheFly Network and Customer’s end user browser/client/requestor. CacheFly does not charge fees for transfer of Customer data to or within the CacheFly Network. In cases where Customer utilizes its own storage in connection with the CacheFly service, there are no Fees for CacheFly to cache Customer’s files.

CDN Subscription Plans

Fees for CDN Subscription Plans are charged on a monthly basis, billed on the anniversary date of the plan. Each CDN Subscription Plan will list an included amount of data transfer and content storage, each expressed in Gigabytes (as defined below). Usage in excess of any included amount will incur an overage charge as set forth in the CDN Subscription Plan which will be billed to customer on the following month’s invoice.

Pay-as-You-Go Plans

CacheFly Pay-As-You-Go Plans are charged as consumption occurs and settled on a monthly basis on the anniversary date of the plan. Charges for Pay-As-You-Go data transfer and storage are billed in Gigabyte increments, as measured by the CacheFly Network.

Custom Plans

CacheFly Custom Plans are charged based on agreed per month pricing per data transfer and storage. Custom Plans are charged on a monthly basis, billed on the anniversary date of the plan. Excess usage that occurs will be billed on the following month’s invoice.

Trial Plan

From time to time, CacheFly may offer a promotional account for new customers to evaluate the service prior to the purchase of a plan (each a “Trial Plan”). The services provided in any Trial Plan, if available, will be set forth on the CacheFly website during the registration of the Trial Plan. Each Trial Plan will have a limited duration and permitted storage and transfer amounts (such as 14 calendar days, with up to 10 Gigabytes of storage and 2,048 Gigabytes of transfer). Upon conclusion of the Trial Plan, the CacheFly Network will automatically suspend the service unless Customer selects a plan and payment method via the CacheFly website, or via a CacheFly Sales Representative.

Service Level

CDN Uptime Service Level

The CacheFly Network will be available 100% of the time.

Remedies for Failure of Service Levels

CDN Uptime Service Level

If CacheFly fails to meet its Service Level during any given service’s billing month, Customer’s account will be credited. Upon Customer’s request, CacheFly will issue a credit to Customer for failure to meet the CDN Uptime Service Level in an amount equal to one day’s worth of the Monthly Fee paid by Customer, multiplied by 10 minute period (or portion thereof rounded to the next hour) of the cumulative duration of such failure during a particular billing month.

Exceptions, Limitations on Remedies

Customer shall not receive any credits under these SLAs in connection with any failure or deficiency caused by or associated with:

  • Circumstances beyond CacheFly reasonable control including, without limitation, acts of any governmental body, war, insurrection, sabotage, embargo, fire, flood, strike or other labor disturbance, interruption of or delay in transportation, unavailability of or interruption or delay in telecommunications or third party services, failure of third party software or inability to obtain raw materials, supplies, or power used in or equipment needed for provision of the CDN;
  • Failure of access circuits to the CacheFly Network, unless such failure is caused solely by CacheFly;
  • False SLA breaches reported as a result of outages or errors of any SLA measurement system;
  • Acts or omissions of Customer (or user of Customer’s services), including without limitation, any negligence, willful misconduct, or breach of CacheFly Acceptable Use Policy.

Limitation on Remedies

If Customer is entitled to multiple credits under this Service Description, the aggregate Credits in respect of any one (1) calendar month issued under this Service Description shall not exceed the total Monthly Fees payable for the CDN for two (2) weeks during such calendar month. Except as set forth in this Service Description, CacheFly makes no claims regarding the availability or performance of the CDN. The remedy for failure of any individual CDN plan shall be limited to the remedies described herein, and shall not constitute a failure of any other CacheFly products or services. CacheFly’s suspension or modification of any plan in accordance with the terms of its Master Products and Services Agreement shall not be deemed to be a failure of CacheFly to meet adequate Service Levels under the Agreement. Any failure that is determined to be, in CacheFly’s reasonable discretion, attributable to conditions at any Customer or end user premises (including, but not limited to, network failures) shall not be deemed a failure to meet any of the Service Levels described herein.

Use of CacheFly IP Addresses

Any IP addresses assigned to Customer by CacheFly remain the sole property of CacheFly, and may be used only in connection with and for the duration of the Services purchased. In the event Customer discontinues the use of the Services for any reason, or this Supplement terminates for any reason, Customer’s right to use the IP Addresses.
