Unauthorized access or use of the Account or the Program must be immediately reported to Navina.
5. Prohibited Uses. Except as specifically permitted herein, without the prior written consent of Navina, Customer must not, and shall not allow any Permitted User or any third party to, directly or indirectly: (i) copy, modify, create derivative works of or distribute any part of the Program (including by incorporation into its products); (ii) sell, license (or sub-license), lease, assign, transfer, pledge, or share Customer's rights under this Agreement with any third party; (iii) use any “open source” or “copyleft software” in a manner that would require Navina to disclose the source code of the Program to any third party; (iv) disclose the results of any testing, use or benchmarking of the Program to any third party; (v) disassemble, decompile, reverse engineer or attempt to discover the Program’s source code or underlying algorithms; (vi) use the Program in a manner that violates or infringes any rights of any third party, including but not limited to, privacy rights, publicity rights or intellectual property rights; (vii) remove or alter any trademarks or other proprietary notices related to the Program; (viii) circumvent, disable or otherwise interfere with security-related features of the Program or features that enforce use limitations; (ix) export, make available or use the Program in any manner prohibited by applicable laws (including without limitation export control laws); (x) use the Program in a manner that violates any applicable law, including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA"), and/or (xi) transmit any malicious code (e.g., software viruses, Trojan horses, worms, malware or other computer instructions, devices, or techniques that erase data or programming, infect, disrupt, damage, disable, or shut down a computer system or any component of such computer system) or other unlawful material in connection with Navina’s product or Services.
6. Customer Data and Analytics Information. As Navina operates the Services, Navina may monitor and process data that Customer will upload to the Program and/or that may be collected as a result of Customer's use of the program, regarding the Customer and/or its patients (the “Customer Data”). As the exclusive owner of the Customer Data, Customer represents that to the extent the Customer Data includes any personally identifiable information or Protected Health Information, as defined in HIPAA ("PHI"), Customer has received the required consents or permits and has acted in compliance with applicable privacy laws (including but not limited to HIPAA), as to allow Navina to use the Customer Data solely in order to perform the Services. Customer shall defend, hold harmless and indemnify Navina (including, without limitation, its affiliates, employees, officers, directors, contractors and agents) from and against any and all losses, penalties, fines, damages, liabilities, settlements, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, as a result of Customer's breach or failure to meet its above representation. Customer acknowledges Navina may be required to disclose the Customer Data: (a) to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, subpoena or governmental request; or (b) to collect, hold and/or manage the Customer Data through Navina's authorized third party service providers as reasonable for business purposes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any anonymous information which is derived from the use of the Program (i.e., metadata, aggregated and/or analytics information which is not personally identifiable information (“Analytics Information”)) may be used by Navina for any purpose, including for providing the Service, for development, and/or for statistical purposes. For the removal of doubt Navina will be the exclusive owner of the Analytics Information. Navina may store Customer Data for the period Navina views such data as required.

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE CONSTRUED AS LIMITING NAVINA’S LIABILITY TO THE EXTENT ARISING FROM A NAVINA’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.
15. Indemnification. Navina agrees to defend, at its expense, any third party action or suit brought against the Customer alleging that the Program, when used as permitted under this Agreement, infringes intellectual property rights of a third party (“IP Infringement Claim”); and Navina will pay any damages agreed in a settlement or awarded in a final judgment against the Customer that are attributable to any such claim, provided that (i) the Customer promptly notifies Navina in writing of such claim; and (ii) the Customer grants Navina the authority to solely handle the defense and/or settlement of any such claim and (iii) provides Navina with all reasonable information and assistance, at Navina’s expense. Navina will not be bound by any settlement that the Customer enters into without Navina's prior written consent. Navina will not, without Customer’s written consent which shall not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, agree to any settlement which makes any admission on behalf of Customer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Navina shall have no responsibility for IP Infringement Claims resulting from or based on: (i) modifications to the Program made by a party other than Navina or its designee; (ii) the Customer's failure to implement software updates provided by Navina specifically to avoid infringement; or (iii) a combination or use of the Program with equipment, devices or software not supplied or authorized by Navina or not in accordance with the Documentation. This Section states Navina's entire liability, and Customer's exclusive remedy, for claims of alleged or actual infringement.

Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement: (i) the Program license granted to Customer under this Agreement shall expire, and Customer shall discontinue any further use and access thereof; (ii) Customer shall immediately delete and dispose of all copies of the Documentation; and (iii) any sums paid by Customer until the date of termination are non-refundable, and Customer shall not be relieved of its duty to pay in full all due sums owed by Customer to Navina under this Agreement until the date of termination or expiration hereof.

The termination of this Agreement shall not limit Navina from pursuing any other remedies available to it under applicable law.
17. Miscellaneous. This Agreement - including any BAA, Proposals, and any exhibits attached or referred hereto - represents the complete agreement concerning the subject matter hereof and may be amended only by a written agreement executed by both Parties. The failure of either Party to enforce any rights granted hereunder or to take action against the other Party in the event of a breach shall not be deemed a waiver by that Party of future breaches. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable, and shall not affect the enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement. Any use of the Program by an agency, department, or other entity of the United States government shall be governed solely by the terms of this Agreement. Neither Party may assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, provided that Navina may assign this Agreement to the successor of all or substantially all of such Party’s assets or business (including by a merger or acquisition).
