1.1 Access and Use
During the Subscription Period and subject to the terms of this Agreement, Client may (a) access and use the Service; and (b) copy and use the included Documentation only as needed to access and use the Service, in each case, for its internal business purposes. If a Client Affiliate enters a separate Order Form with Company, the Client's Affiliate creates a separate agreement between Company and that Affiliate, where Company's responsibility to the Affiliate is individual and separate from Client and Client is not responsible for its Affiliates' agreement.
1.2 Support
During the Subscription Period, Company will provide standard technical support via email (and/or another support channel designated by Company) during Company's normal business hours (Monday–Friday, 9:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. Pacific Time, excluding U.S. federal holidays). Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to respond to support requests and to diagnose and correct verified errors in the Service.
Severity Levels; Response Targets
Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the response time targets below (response means initial acknowledgement and commencement of triage; not resolution). Company may reclassify severity based on impact and available workarounds.
- Severity 1 (Critical): the Service is down or materially unavailable for production use, or there is a critical security incident involving the Service — response within 24 hours.
- Severity 2 (High): material degradation of core functionality with no reasonable workaround — response within 2 business days.
- Severity 3 (Normal): non-critical issues, questions, or minor defects — response within 5 business days.
Exclusions
Standard technical support includes assistance with Service access and functionality, configuration questions, and incident triage/escalation. Standard technical support excludes custom development or consulting, on-site support, and issues caused by (i) Client's systems, networks, or misuse, or (ii) third-party systems or services outside Company's control (including EHR vendors, telecom providers, or third-party AI/voice providers).
1.3 User Accounts
Client is responsible for all actions on Users' accounts and for all Users' compliance with this Agreement. Client and Users must protect the confidentiality of their passwords and login credentials. Client will promptly notify Company if it suspects or knows of any fraudulent activity with its accounts, passwords, or credentials, or if they become compromised.
1.4 Feedback and Usage Data
Client may, but is not required to, give Company Feedback, in which case Client gives Feedback "AS IS". Company may use all Feedback freely without any restriction or obligation. In addition, Company may collect and analyze Usage Data, and Company may freely use Usage Data to maintain, improve, enhance, and promote Company's products and services without restriction or obligation. However, Company may only disclose Usage Data to others if the Usage Data is aggregated and does not identify Client or Users.

Company may copy, display, modify, and use Client Content only as needed to provide and maintain the Service and related offerings. Client is responsible for the accuracy and content of Client Content.
1.6 Machine Learning
Usage Data and Client Content may be used to develop, train, or enhance artificial intelligence or machine learning models that are part of Company's products and services, including third-party components of the Service, and Client authorizes Company to process its Usage Data and Client Content for such purposes. However, (a) Usage Data and Client Content must be aggregated before it can be used for these purposes, and (b) Company will use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with industry standard technology to de-identify Usage Data and Client Content before such use. Nothing in this section will reduce or limit Company's obligations regarding Personal Data that may be contained in Usage Data or Client Content under Applicable Data Protection Laws. Due to the nature of artificial intelligence and machine learning, information generated by these features may be incorrect or inaccurate. Product features that include artificial intelligence or machine learning models are not human and are not a substitute for human oversight.

9.3 Procedures
The indemnifying party's obligations in this Section 9 (Indemnification) are subject to receiving from the indemnified party (a) prompt notice of the claim (but delayed notice will only reduce the indemnifying party's obligations to the extent it is prejudiced by the delay); (b) the exclusive right to control the investigation, defense, and settlement of the claim (however, (i) any settlement requiring the indemnified party to admit liability, pay money, or take or refrain from taking any action, will require the indemnified party's prior written consent, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed, and (ii) the indemnified party may participate in the defense of the claim at its own cost); and (c) reasonable cooperation at the indemnifying party's request and expense.

Company and its licensors own all intellectual property and other rights in the Service, Documentation, and related technology, and nothing in this Agreement assigns or transfers any such rights to Client.

To the extent that Company maintains PHI in a Designated Record Set electronically, the Company will make such PHI available to Client in an electronic format that enables Client to fulfill its access obligations under 45 C.F.R. § 164.524. If Client reasonably requests a different format for the PHI, Company will provide the PHI in such format if it is readily producible in that format, or in a readable electronic form and format as agreed to by Company and Client.

Neither party will be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations (excluding payment obligations) if the delay or failure results from a Force Majeure Event. If a Force Majeure Event causes delay or failure, the affected party will (a) promptly notify the other party of the Force Majeure Event and its expected duration and (b) use reasonable efforts to minimize the impact of the event.
13.6 Dispute Resolution
