Survey Product: Trial Edition

Cvent reserves the right to limit access to its Survey Product trial edition based on internal needs. Company may decline or revoke access to the trial edition without notice. Cvent is not responsible for Customer data within the trial edition and relies on Customer to maintain separate copies of the data.

Price and Payment

You agree to pay all fees and other charges in accordance with your service agreement ("Agreement.") If you do not pay the fees or other charges when they are due, then a finance charge of two percent (2%) plus $100 per month or the maximum rate allowed by law if less will be assessed. Annual fees are charged per annum. As an example, if the contract term spans three years, you will be charged the annual amount three times.

If you exceed the contracted level of services during the term of your Agreement, you will be charged as specified in your contract, or if not specified, using the then-current rates for the overage. Where no limits for usage of application services are explicitly given in your contract, limits will apply as specified by product later in this document. Absent an automatic renewal term in your written agreement, if you continue to use the Services beyond your term, your Agreement will automatically renew for another term at then-current rates.

You are responsible for reporting and paying any applicable taxes.

Termination

If you become dissatisfied with the Services because of substantial non-performance, you shall give the Company detailed written notice of such dissatisfaction. Cvent shall have thirty (30) days to cure your dissatisfaction after receipt of such notice. If Cvent fails to cure such substantial non-performance, you may terminate this Agreement and Cvent will refund your unused annual fees on a monthly pro-rata basis starting as of the end of the thirty (30) day cure period.

Either party may terminate this Agreement if (i) the other party breaches any material term or condition and fails to cure within thirty (30) days written notice, or (ii) the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any proceeding relating to insolvency, liquidation or receivership.

In the event of non-payment by the Customer, Cvent may accelerate and declare all sums due, and to become due under this Agreement, immediately payable without notice or demand. All accelerated future payments due under this Agreement shall be discounted to their net present value at a discount rate of 5% per annum from the day of default. If you fail to pay fees when due, then you shall also be liable for all fees due during the term of the Agreement and any additional expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees and accrued interest) Cvent incurs in collecting such delinquent fees.

In the event of non-payment by the Customer, Cvent reserves the right to restrict access to the Services. Customer agrees that such restrictions do not modify the amounts due under their contract.
