If You entered into a SaaS Agreement with Proctorio, Proctorio agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold You harmless from and against any and all losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) or damages resulting from (a) any third party claim that the Application Service and/or the Application Documentation infringes such third party's U.S. patents issued as of the Effective Date or infringes or misappropriates, as applicable, such third party's copyrights or trade secret rights under applicable laws of any jurisdiction, provided You promptly notify Proctorio in writing of the claim, cooperate with Proctorio, and allow Proctorio sole authority to control the defense and settlement of such claim; provided however Proctorio shall not admit fault or liability on Your part without Your prior written consent; (b) any claim that Proctorio failed to comply with applicable law, or violated confidentiality obligations in a SaaS Agreement; (c) Proctorio's gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the event of a claim under (a), in addition to Proctorio's indemnification obligations, You agree to permit Proctorio, at Proctorio's sole discretion, to enable You to continue to use the Application Service or the Application Documentation, or to modify or replace any such infringing material to make it non-infringing. If none of these alternatives is available, You shall, upon Proctorio's written request, cease use of, and, if applicable, return, materials subject to the infringement claim. This provision shall not apply if the alleged infringement arises from any: (i) modification of the Application IP; (ii) combination, operation, or use of the Application IP with other non-Proctorio provided software, hardware or technology; (iii) use of a superseded or altered release of any of the Application IP, if You failed to use a then-current release of the Application IP we provided to you; (iv) Customer Content; or (v) Third Party Products (any of the foregoing circumstances under clauses (i), (ii), (iii), or (iv), or (v) an "Indemnity Exclusion").

13. K-12 Institutions.
We recognize that certain privacy protections apply specifically to minors, and accordingly have implemented additional privacy and security protections in place for minor users. If you are accessing and using the Services as a representative of a K-12 Institution, as a parent of a child attending a K-12 Institution (collectively, "Minor Representative"), or as the minor child who has been given parental permission by a parent, the following terms will also apply to you.
A. Student Users. Minor students agree that they have obtained consent from a parent/legal guardian for their use of the Site and Services in connection with educational uses. By using the Site and Services, if you are a minor, you represent that you have obtained consent from your parent/legal guardian who has read and agrees to this Agreement on your behalf. If you do not obtain such consent, then you are not authorized to use the Site or the Services.
B. Parents and Guardians. As a parent or guardian, you represent and warrant that you are over the age of majority; that you are entering into this Agreement on your behalf and on the behalf of your minor student, and that you have authority to bind you and your minor students to the terms herein. You acknowledge and agree that minor students cannot use the Site and Services without a parent/legal guardian first accepting this Agreement on their behalf. To the extent your minor student needs to set up an account, you, as the parent or guardian are responsible for doing so, and are responsible for both all information provided in setting up that account, and all actions taken by the minor student using that account.
C. Collection of Student Information. Proctorio's Services only collect the personal information from K-12 students that is needed for the operation and management of the Services, and only where the educational institution has contracted with Proctorio to do so. We first require that the educational institution (i) obtain the consent of parents/legal guardians prior to collecting such information or (ii) consent on their behalf.

D. Assignment; Delegation.
If You entered into a SaaS Agreement with Proctorio, You may assign Your rights and duties under the SaaS Agreement, with thirty days prior written notice to Proctorio. Proctorio may assign any SaaS Agreement, without consent, in the event of a change of control event. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
E. Payment; Refunds.
To the extent the Services or any portion thereof is made available for any fee or through a subscription, your access will be granted following payment of the applicable fees to Company. Your account and access to the Services may be suspended in the event of non-payment of applicable fees. You represent and warrant to Company that such payment information is true and that you are authorized to use the payment instrument. If You are using a payment instrument held in the name of a third party, you agree to communicate Proctorio's policy on payments and refunds set forth in this Section 15(E) to such third party. For recurring subscriptions, you will promptly update your account information with any changes (for example, a change in your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur.
If your access to the Services is not under an Institution SaaS contract, your payments are due under the a pay as you go, End User-pay model. This means that You are invoiced by the Company based on the then-stated fees associated with such usage. When you create your account, you will have three payment options: (1) put a card on file with the Company, (2) accept monthly invoices, or (3) End User-pay per usage. Option (2) is only available if you complete an addendum document with the Company.
In the event an Institution's payment method stops working for any reason, the Institution's payment method will automatically revert to End User-pay, meaning the End User will become directly financially responsible for their access to the Services. In that circumstance, Institution understands and agrees that it shall be solely and completely responsible for any and all requests from End Users for refunds. Institution further agrees to hold harmless, indemnify, and, at Proctorio's option, defend Proctorio from and against any losses, liabilities, costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) or damages resulting from any claims from any End User resulting from any failure of Institution's payment method with Proctorio for the Services.
All payments are nonrefundable. In certain circumstances, we may provide a refund to an End User who purchases the Services directly from Proctorio who can demonstrate that they no longer require the Services because they either (1) dropped the program which required use of the Services, or (2) are no longer enrolled in an Institution. Should You believe you are entitled to a refund because either of these circumstances apply to You, please contact our support team within 90 days at refunds@proctorio.com.
If You, or the third party payment instrument holder, see a charge on a card or bank statement for a purchase from Proctorio that You did not make, please first check with your family and friends to see if they made the purchase. Once You've confirmed that the charge was not made by anyone You know, please report the charge to our support team at refunds@proctorio.com within 90 days of the transaction.
The amount and the decision to provide a refund will be made by Proctorio in its sole and absolute discretion. If You receive a refund for any reason, Proctorio reserves the right to terminate Your access to the relevant Services.
Proctorio may suspend or cancel payment or refuse a refund request if we find evidence of fraud, abuse, or unlawful or other manipulative behavior.
F. Advertising.
If You entered into a SaaS Agreement with Proctorio, and gave prior written consent, we may reference and use Your name and trademarks (only in a manner consistent with Your brand requirements and such use subject to Your prior review and approval), and disclose Proctorio's services for business development and marketing efforts, including on our website. Proctorio will not use any Customer Content to advertise or market to students or their parents. Proctorio does not sell or otherwise transfer your data to any third party except as specifically stated in these Terms or Privacy Policy.
G. Independent Contractors.
You and Proctorio will, at all times, act as independent contractors, and nothing contained in these Terms, or any other agreement, will be construed or implied to create an agency, partnership, or employer and employee relationship.
H. Waiver and Severability.
The failure of Proctorio or You to enforce any right or provision of these Terms, or any other applicable agreement, will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms, or any other applicable agreement, is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
