2. Scope of Services
VOLEX-INC will provide the Services as specified in the applicable SOW. All Services are delivered on a managed, as-a-service basis.

In the event of an SLA breach, your sole remedy shall be a service credit as detailed in the applicable SOW. SLA commitments do not apply during: scheduled maintenance windows (notified at least 48 hours in advance); events of Force Majeure; or outages caused by client actions or third-party providers outside VOLEX-INC's reasonable control.
5. Fees and Payment

VOLEX-INC reserves the right to suspend Services for accounts more than 45 days past due, with 10 business days written notice.
6. Intellectual Property
VOLEX-INC retains all intellectual property rights in its platforms, methodologies, tools, and pre-existing materials. Client retains all rights to Client Data. You grant VOLEX-INC a limited license to process Client Data solely as required to deliver the Services. Any custom deliverables created specifically for Client under an SOW shall be governed by the IP assignment terms in that SOW.
7. Confidentiality
Each party agrees to keep confidential the other party's non-public information and to use it solely for purposes of this Agreement. Confidentiality obligations survive termination for a period of three (3) years, except for trade secrets which are protected indefinitely.
8. Data Protection
The parties' obligations regarding personal data are governed by the Data Processing Agreement (DPA), which is incorporated by reference. VOLEX-INC maintains SOC 2 Type II certification and cooperates with Client's compliance obligations including GDPR, HIPAA, and other applicable regulatory frameworks as agreed in the DPA.
9. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, VOLEX-INC'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY CLIENT IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM. NEITHER PARTY SHALL BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
10. Indemnification
Each party agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the other party from third-party claims arising from: (a) its breach of these Terms; (b) its negligence or willful misconduct; or (c) its violation of applicable law.
11. Term and Termination
These Terms remain in effect for the duration of any active SOW. Either party may terminate for cause upon 30 days written notice if the other party materially breaches the Agreement and fails to cure within the notice period. Upon termination, Client's access to Services will be suspended, and VOLEX-INC will provide a data export within 30 days.
12. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, USA, without regard to conflict of law principles. Disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration in Austin, Texas, under the rules of JAMS, except either party may seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction.
13. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms. For existing clients, material changes require 60 days written notice. Continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
