The User bears full responsibility for the actions of both the Agent and the User resulting from the use of the Agent Account and the User Account. The User is solely responsible for all data and materials added, distributed, or sent in connection with the use of the System, as well as the consequences of such actions. ITSM Software’s actions regarding User Data placed in the System are purely technical and do not include verifying their legality.

In the event of third-party claims arising from actions by the User, Agent, or User, especially related to content submitted and processed in the System, the User assumes full responsibility. The User is obligated to indemnify ITSM Software from any liability in this regard.

ITSM Software is not liable for damages related to:

a) actions or omissions by the User, Agent, or User, as well as a third party to whom the User, Agent, or User has granted access to the System, particularly those violating the provisions of the Terms of Service;

b) the lack of access to the System due to reasons attributable to the User, Agent, or User, as well as a person who gained access through them;

c) providing access credentials for the Admin Panel, Agent Account, or User Account to third parties by the User, Agent, or User;

d) malware introduced into the System by the User, Agent, User, or third party to whom they have granted access to the System.

a) insufficient funds on the User's payment card, authorized by the User for Fee payment, or removal of the card from the payment system despite at least 7 days' payment delay;

b) failure to authorize the payment card in the payment system, as mentioned in § 6.10 of the Terms of Service, by the end of the Trial Period – if ITSM Software allowed the User to use the Trial Period without providing payment card details before starting the Trial Period;

ITSM Software is entitled, without further demand for payment from the User, to suspend the Services, including blocking access to the System, with the possibility of restoring access upon payment.

Regardless of the above right, if the User delays payment of the Fee, ITSM Software – from the first day after the due date – may display a notice in the Admin Panel informing of the overdue Fee.

ITSM Software has the right to receive the Fee for the period of service suspension due to being ready to provide the Services.

ITSM Software may terminate the Agreement immediately after any service suspension lasting more than 7 days without requiring the User to fulfill the Agreement properly.

ITSM Software reserves the right to adjust the Fee Schedule, notifying the User under the principles above. New rates apply at the start of the next Subscription Period, subject to § 16.6 below. Changes to the Fee Schedule may result from Service expansion, increased operating costs, or IT specialists' wage increases.

Changes do not affect any orders or payments made by the User before the effective date of such changes.

In case of price changes by the cloud infrastructure provider used by the System (e.g., AWS price changes), ITSM Software reserves the right to update the Fee Schedule accordingly. The User will be notified of new rates at least 7 days before they take effect, with the new prices applicable no later than the day they are introduced by the cloud service provider.

ITSM Software will notify the User of any changes to the Terms of Service and the Fee Schedule via email.

§ 17. FINAL PROVISIONS


The Parties agree to resolve any disputes arising from the provisions of the Terms of Service first through amicable resolution. If an agreement cannot be reached, disputes will be settled by the competent common court with jurisdiction over ITSM Software's registered office. If the User's registered office is outside of Poland, the Parties agree that all matters arising from or related to the Agreement will be subject to the jurisdiction of the Polish courts.

If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, it does not affect the validity of the remaining provisions, which remain in full force and effect.

The User may not, without written consent from ITSM Software, assign any claims arising from the Agreement to third parties or offset their claims with those of ITSM Software arising from the Agreement, under penalty of nullity.

The governing law for this Agreement is Polish law. To the extent permitted by law, the direct application of international and foreign law provisions is excluded. However, if international or foreign provisions are mandatory and applicable to the Agreement, the User agrees to inform ITSM Software accordingly. If such notification is not provided, ITSM Software reserves the right to terminate the Agreement immediately.

If the Agreement is concluded in multiple languages or translated into other languages, the Polish version shall be binding and decisive, especially regarding the interpretation of terms used in the Agreement.
