Customer Responsibilities.
-
- General. Customer is responsible and liable for all uses of the Services and Content resulting from access provided by Customer, directly or indirectly, whether such access or use is permitted by or in violation of this Agreement.
- Third-Party Products. Playfair may from time to time make Third-Party Products available to Customer. For purposes of this Agreement, such Third-Party Products are subject to their own terms and conditions and the applicable flow-through provisions provided by that third-party provider. If Customer does not agree to abide by the applicable terms for any such Third-Party Products, then Customer should not access or use such Third-Party Products. Playfair is not liable for any Customer Data that Customer provides to the third-party provider. Customer further agrees that Playfair will not be liable for any action or inaction of the third-party provider, including its collection, storage, processing, sharing, selling or other treatment of Customer Data that Customer provides to the third-party provider.
- User Credentials. If Customer chooses, or is provided with, a username, password, or any other piece of information as part of the Platform’s security procedures, Customer must treat such information as confidential, and must not disclose it to any other person or entity. Customer also acknowledges that its account is personal to Customer and agrees not to provide any other person with access to the Platform or portions of it using Customer’s username, password, or other security information. Customer agrees to notify Playfair immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of Customer’s username or password or any other breach of security. Customer also agrees to exit from Customer’s account at the end of each session. Customer should use particular caution when accessing Customer’s account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record Customer’s password or other personal information. Playfair has the right to disable any username, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by Customer or provided by Customer, at any time in Playfair’s discretion for any or no reason, including if, in Playfair’s opinion, Customer has violated any provision of this Agreement.
Digital Badges. Playfair has partnered with a third-party provider to offer digital badges as a way for Customer to share and validate achievements. These badges are secure and consist of an image and metadata that is uniquely linked to Customer’s achievements. To receive a badge, Customer must complete the relevant badge requirements as set by Playfair, which may include training course(s) provided and/or examinations. Upon successful completion of the badge requirements, Customer will receive an email from the third-party provider with instructions on claiming the badge. The third-party provider may communicate directly with Customer. After Customer completes the steps as indicated, Customer will be able to share the badge to social media sites and via other digital methods. Please note that Customer may need to provide personal information to the third-party provider to claim the badge. Playfair is not liable for any personal information Customer provides to the third-party provider and any personal information provided to the third-party provider shall be subject to their terms and conditions and privacy policies. Playfair recommends that Customer reviews such documents before providing any personal information to the third-party provider.
Service Levels and Support. This Agreement does not entitle Customer to any support for the Services.
Fees and Payment. Customer shall pay Playfair the fees (“Fees“) as set forth on the pricing page of the website, as Playfair may update them from time to time, without offset or deduction. If Customer fails to make any payment when due, without limiting Playfair’s other rights and remedies: (i) Playfair may immediately terminate Customer’s access to the Platform and license to the Service; and (ii) Customer shall reimburse Playfair for all costs incurred by Playfair in collecting any late payments or interest, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency fees.

- Effect of Expiration or Termination. Upon expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, Customer shall immediately discontinue use of the Services and Customer shall delete, destroy, or return all copies of the Playfair IP and, upon request from Playfair, certify in writing to the Playfair that the Playfair IP has been deleted or destroyed. No expiration or termination will affect Customer’s obligation to pay all Fees that may have become due before such expiration or termination or entitle Customer to any refund for Fees paid on or prior to the date of Termination.
