Term and termination

10.1 The Contract shall, unless otherwise terminated as provided in this clause 10, commence on the Commencement Date and shall continue for the initial subscription term set out in the Order Form and, thereafter, it shall be automatically renewed for successive period set out in the Order Form.

10.2 Either party may terminate the Contract for convenience at the end of the Contract term or the respective renewal by serving to the other party a written notice (including by email) at least 30 days before the expiration of the respective Contract term or renewal, such termination shall take effect at the end of the current Contract term at earliest (unless the Customer has terminated the Contract by notice as a result of Wordsmith AI’s change of these Terms that directly and substantially contradict the terms and conditions of the Contract in effect when the Customer initially accepted it, and the Customer finds these changes unacceptable; in such case termination shall become effective after the expiration of the 30 days’ notice period).

10.3 Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:

10.3.3 the other party takes any step or action in connection with its entering administration, provisional liquidation or any composition or arrangement with its creditors (other than in relation to a solvent restructuring), obtaining a moratorium, being wound up (whether voluntarily or by order of the court, unless for the purpose of a solvent restructuring), having a receiver appointed to any of its assets or ceasing to carry on business or, if the step or action is taken in another jurisdiction, in connection with any analogous procedure in the relevant jurisdiction;

10.3.4 the other party suspends, threatens to suspend, ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or a substantial part of its business;

10.3.5 the other party's financial position deteriorates so far as to reasonably justify the opinion that its ability to give effect to the terms of the Contract is in jeopardy; or

10.3.6 the other party suspends or ceases, or threatens to suspend or cease, carrying on all or a substantial part of its business.

10.4 Termination or expiry of the Contract shall not affect any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities of the parties that have accrued up to the date of termination or expiry, including the right to claim damages in respect of any breach of the Contract which existed at or before the date of termination or expiry.

Confidentiality

11.1 In order to perform its obligations under the Contract, each party may be given access to information of the other party (including that of its authorised users) that is proprietary or confidential or is either clearly labelled or identified as such or that a reasonable person would deem to be confidential (“Confidential Information”). A party's Confidential Information shall not be deemed to include information that:

11.1.2 was in the other party's lawful possession before the disclosure;

11.1.3 is lawfully disclosed to the receiving party by a third party without restriction on disclosure; or

11.1.4 is independently developed by the receiving party, which independent development can be shown by written evidence.

11.2 Subject to clause 11.4, each party shall hold the other's Confidential Information in confidence and not make the other's Confidential Information available to any third party, or use the other's Confidential Information for any purpose other than the implementation of this Contract.

11.3 Each party shall take all reasonable steps to ensure that the other's Confidential Information to which it has access is not disclosed or distributed by its employees or agents in violation of the terms of this Contract.

11.4 A party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent such Confidential Information is required to be disclosed by law, by any governmental or other regulatory authority or by a court or other authority of competent jurisdiction, provided that, to the extent it is legally permitted to do so, it gives the other party as much notice of such disclosure as possible and, where notice of disclosure is not prohibited and is given in accordance with this clause 11.4, it takes into account the reasonable requests of the other party in relation to the content of such disclosure.

11.5 The provisions of this clause 11 shall survive termination of this Contract, however arising.

General provisions

12.1 Assignment. We may at any time assign, transfer, subcontract, delegate, or deal in any other manner with any or all of its rights or obligations under the Contract. The Customer may not assign, transfer, subcontract, delegate, or deal in any other manner with any or all of its rights or obligations under the Contract without the prior written consent of Wordsmith AI.

12.2 Entire agreement. The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes and extinguishes all previous agreements, promises, assurances, warranties, representations and understandings between them, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.

12.3 Variation No variation of the Contract shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties (or their authorised representatives).

12.4 Waiver. No failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under the Contract or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.

12.5 Severance. If any provision or part-provision of the Contract is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, unless superseded by a provision contained in a new version of these Terms, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of this agreement. If any provision of the Contract is deemed deleted under this clause 12.5 the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree a replacement provision that, to the greatest extent possible, achieves the intended commercial result of the original provision.

12.6 Notices. Any notice given to a party under or in connection with this contract shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or by pre-paid first-class post or other next working day delivery service at its registered office (if a company) or its principal place of business (in any other case); or sent by email to the other party’s recorded address. Any notice shall be deemed to have been received (i) if delivered by hand, at the time the notice is left at the proper address; (ii) if sent by pre-paid first-class post or other next working day delivery service, at 9.00 am on the second Business Day after posting (where “Business Day” means a day other than a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday in England when banks in London are open for business); or (iii) if sent by email, at the time of transmission, or, if this time falls outside business hours in the place of receipt, when business hours resume. This clause does not apply to the service of any proceedings or other documents in any legal action or, where applicable, any arbitration or other method of dispute

12.7 Third party rights. The provisions of clauses 8 (Indemnity) and 9 (Limitation of Liability) are for the benefit of us and our officers, directors, employees, agents, contractors and consultants. Each of these individuals or entities shall have the right to assert and enforce those provisions directly against you on its own behalf. Otherwise and unless expressly stated otherwise, the Contract does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of the Contract.

12.8 No partnership or agency. Nothing in the Contract is intended to, or shall be deemed to, establish any partnership or joint venture between any of the parties, constitute any party the agent of another party, or authorise any party to make or enter into any commitments for or on behalf of any other party. Each party confirms it is acting on its own behalf and not for the benefit of any other person.

12.9 Force majeure.
