3.1 General.
Customer is responsible and liable for all uses of the Flex Platform resulting from access provided by Customer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer is responsible for all acts and omissions of Authorized Users, and any act or omission by an Authorized User that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if taken by Customer will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by Customer.

Flex may from time to time make Third-Party Products available to Customer or Flex may allow for certain Third-Party Products to be integrated with the Flex Platform to allow for the transmission of Customer Data from such Third-Party Products into the Flex Platform or Flex’s provision of the Flex Platform. For purposes of this Agreement, such Third-Party Products are subject to their own terms and conditions. If Customer does not agree to abide by the applicable terms for any such Third-Party Products, then Customer should not install or use such Third-Party Products. By authorizing Flex to transmit Customer Data from Third-Party Products into the Flex Platform or use Customer Data in connection with Third-Party Products to provide the Flex Platform, Customer represents and warrants to Flex that it has all right, power, and authority to provide such authorization.

Customer is responsible and liable for all uses of the Flex Platform resulting from access provided by Customer. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer is responsible for all acts and omissions of Authorized Users, and any act or omission by an Authorized User that would constitute a breach of this Agreement if taken by Customer will be deemed a breach of this Agreement by Customer.

Flex may from time to time make Third-Party Products available to Customer or Flex may allow for certain Third-Party Products to be integrated with the Flex Platform to allow for the transmission of Customer Data from such Third-Party Products into the Flex Platform or Flex’s provision of the Flex Platform. For purposes of this Agreement, such Third-Party Products are subject to their own terms and conditions. If Customer does not agree to abide by the applicable terms for any such Third-Party Products, then Customer should not install or use such Third-Party Products. By authorizing Flex to transmit Customer Data from Third-Party Products into the Flex Platform or use Customer Data in connection with Third-Party Products to provide the Flex Platform, Customer represents and warrants to Flex that it has all right, power, and authority to provide such authorization.

Fees paid by Customer are non-refundable. Customer shall make all payments hereunder in US dollars. By agreeing to the terms of this Agreement, Customer agrees that Flex’s third-party payment processor, Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”), may process Customer’s payment of the Fees. Please see Stripe’s Services Agreement, available at https://stripe.com/us/legal, and Stripe’s Privacy Policy, available at https://stripe.com/us/privacy, as each may be amended by Stripe in accordance with the terms set forth therein, for information on how Stripe collects and uses personal information. As used herein, “Service Fees” means a specified percentage of the sales price of each transaction made by an end user of Customer through the the Flex Platform.

4.2 Late Payments.
If Customer fails to make any payment when due, and Customer has not notified Flex in writing within ten (10) days of the payment becoming due and payable that the payment is subject to a good faith dispute, without limiting Flex’s other rights and remedies: (a) Flex may charge interest on the undisputed past due amount at the rate of 1.5% per month, calculated daily and compounded monthly or, if lower, the highest rate permitted under applicable law; (b) Customer shall reimburse Flex for all reasonable costs incurred by Flex in collecting any late payments or interest, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, and collection agency fees; and (c) if such failure continues for ten (10) days or more, Flex may suspend Customer’s access to all or any part of the Flex Platform until such amounts are paid in full.
