Current Master Subscription and Service Agreement
This Master Subscription and Services Agreement (this “Agreement”) is between SocialClimb, LLC, with a principal place of business at 1355 W Innovation Way #500, Lehi, UT 84043 (“SocialClimb”) and the subscriber identified on the applicable Service Order for SocialClimb’s SaaS Services. However, if SocialClimb and Customer have signed a different form of Master Subscription and Services Agreement, that agreement shall apply rather than this one.

SocialClimb may update this Agreement from time to time by posting an amended Agreement to
Customer’s SocialClimb Service Dashboard with notice to Customer of this revision by email or in-app notification. The revised version will become effective and binding the next business day after it is posted. If Customer does not agree with a modification to the Agreement, Customer must notify
SocialClimb in writing of any reasonable objections within thirty (30) days after SocialClimb sends notice of the revision. If Customer provides such notice, then Customer’s subscription will continue to be governed by the terms and conditions of the Agreement prior to modification until Customer’s next renewal date, after which the updated version will apply.

- Return or Destruction. Promptly upon expiration or termination of this Agreement or at any time upon a Disclosing Party’s request, the Receiving Party shall promptly, at the Disclosing Party’s option, either return or destroy all (or, if the Disclosing Party so requests, any part) of the Confidential
Information, and all copies thereof and other materials containing such Confidential Information, including deletion from such Party’s files and systems and the Receiving Party shall certify in writing its compliance with the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party may retain Confidential
Information on its back-up servers that are not generally accessible, in the ordinary course of business, as well as one copy in a secure location for archival purposes, provided that such Confidential Information shall remain subject to the provisions of this Agreement.
- Injunctive Relief. Each Party acknowledges that in the event of a breach of this Section 7 damages may not be an adequate remedy and the Disclosing Party may be entitled to, in addition to any other rights and remedies available under the Agreement or at law or in equity, injunctive relief to restrain any such breach.
