14. AI-Powered Features and Data Usage:
14.1. XBP may, from time to time, make available optional AI-powered functionalities within the Services, including but not limited to intelligent document suggestions, automated reminders, content classification, predictive analytics, and other enhancements designed to improve efficiency and user experience (“AI-Powered Features”). These AI-Powered Features may be made available automatically as part of an update to the Services or on an opt-in basis, as determined by XBP.
14.2. AI-Powered Features operate by analyzing Customer Data (as defined below) to generate suggestions, reminders, or other outputs intended solely for the Customer’s internal business use. Customer acknowledges that such outputs are dependent on the quality and accuracy of the input data provided.
14.3. “Customer Data” means any data, documents, images, metadata, or other information input, uploaded, transmitted, or otherwise provided by Customer or its authorized users into the Services, including data derived from invoices, contracts, or other business records. Customer retains all right, title, and interest in and to Customer Data. Nothing in this Agreement grants XBP any rights in Customer Data except as expressly set forth herein.
XBP shall process Customer Data solely (i) to provide, maintain, and improve the Services (including AI-Powered Features); (ii) to ensure the security and integrity of the Services; and (iii) to comply with applicable laws. Customer Data will not be sold, rented, or otherwise disclosed to third parties for marketing or other unrelated purposes.
14.4. XBP shall implement and maintain administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to (i) ensure the security, confidentiality, and integrity of Customer Data, (ii) protect against anticipated threats or hazards to its security or integrity, and (iii) prevent unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, or destruction of Customer Data.
14.5. Customer shall ensure that it has the necessary rights, permissions, and legal basis to provide Customer Data for processing through AI-Powered Features. Customer is solely responsible for reviewing and verifying the accuracy of any AI-generated outputs before relying on them for decision-making.
14.6. AI-Powered Features are intended to assist Customer but do not replace Customer’s independent judgment. XBP does not guarantee that AI-generated outputs will be error-free or suitable for any particular purpose. Customer acknowledges that reliance on AI-generated outputs is at its sole risk.
14.7. XBP may modify the AI-Powered Features, including the methods of processing and algorithms used, provided that such modifications do not materially reduce the level of data protection afforded to Customer Data under this Agreement.
15. Miscellaneous:
15.1. Notices. All notices and other communications must be in writing and will be deemed to have been given to the address set forth on the signature page hereto, or to such other address as may be designated in writing, if sent by registered or certified mail, with return receipt requested, or by a nationally recognized overnight carrier to the addresses set forth below the parties’ names on the signature page.
15.2. Marketing. Customer grants XBP the right to list, present or utilize their name and logo as a current DMR customer on XBP’s service website and/or marketing materials until the current services with the Customer are terminated.
15.3. Governing Law. This agreement and any claim, whether in contract, tort or otherwise arising from this Agreement, shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Parties: (i) agree that any legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement shall be brought in the State of New York, (ii) irrevocably submit to the jurisdiction of such courts; (iii) agree not to assert any claim or defense that they are not subject to the jurisdiction of such courts, that any such forum is not convenient or the venue thereof is improper, or that this Agreement or the subject matter hereof may not be enforced in such courts; and (iv) agree to accept service of process by certified or registered mail or by any other method of authorized law.
15.4. Binding Arbitration. IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OR TO XBP, THE COMPLAINING PARTY SHALL NOTIFY THE OTHER PARTY IN WRITING THEREOF. WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF SUCH NOTICE, BOTH PARTIES SHALL ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE DISPUTE IN GOOD FAITH. IF THE DISPUTE IS NOT RESOLVED BY NEGOTIATION OR MEDIATION, AT ANY TIME AFTER EXPIRATION OF THIRTY (30) CALENDAR DAYS FROM THE DATE OF THE WRITTEN REQUEST FOR INFORMAL SETTLEMENT. INSTEAD OF SUING IN COURT, WE EACH AGREE TO SETTLE DISPUTES ONLY BY ARBITRATION, ACCORDINGLY. THE DISPUTE SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO BINDING ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE AAA COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES BY A SOLE INDEPENDENT ARBITRATOR CHOSEN BY THE AAA OFFICE IN NEW YORK CITY. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL ISSUE A WRITTEN AWARD STATING THE REASONS THEREFOR. THE RULES IN ARBITRATION ARE DIFFERENT. THERE’S NO JUDGE OR JURY, AND REVIEW IS LIMITED, BUT AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF, AND MUST HONOR THE SAME LIMITATIONS STATED IN THESE TERMS AS A COURT WOULD. JUDGMENT UPON THE AWARD RENDERED BY THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE BINDING ON BOTH PARTIES AND MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. EITHER PARTY SHALL RETAIN THE RIGHT TO OBTAIN INTERIM EQUITABLE RELIEF IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ARBITRATOR BE EMPOWERED TO AWARD PUNITIVE DAMAGES. EACH PARTY SHALL BEAR ITS OWN EXPENSE OF ARBITRATION AND SHALL SHARE EQUALLY THE COST OF THE ARBITRATOR AND THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS.
15.5. Waiver of Jury Trial; Class Action Waiver. SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, XBP AND YOU EACH KNOWINGLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL UNDER THESE TERMS, AND YOU FURTHER AGREE THAT ARBITRATION SHALL PROCEED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS WITHOUT THE RIGHT FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED ON A COLLECTIVE OR CLASS ACTION BASIS OR ON A BASIS INVOLVING CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF OTHERS (“CLASS ACTION WAIVER”). CLAIMS MAY NOT BE JOINED OR CONSOLIDATED UNLESS AGREED TO IN WRITING BY US. THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT EVEN IF THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR FOUND UNENFORCEABLE. YOU AND XBP AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
15.6. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES. THE EXPRESS REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE XBP’S ONLY REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. XBP HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

15.8. Assignment, Amendment and Waiver. This T&C may not be assigned without the prior written consent of the other party (whether by operation of law or otherwise), except that either party may assign this T&C to a parent, subsidiary, affiliate, or successor to substantially all of the assets or stock of such party. Any purported assignment without consent will be deemed null and void and as having no effect. XBP may revise this T&C or any additional terms and conditions that are relevant to the Services from time to time to reflect changes in the law or to the Services. Please review the site on a regular basis to obtain timely notice of any revisions. XBP will post the revised terms on the Site with a “last updated” date. The Customer agree that XBP shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification of the Terms.
