6.3. Payment. All License Fees for the Initial Term shall be due and payable as specified in the Quote. All fees for a Renewal Term and all other undisputed fees or amounts due Radformation under this Agreement shall be due and payable in full within thirty (30) days of the date of Radformation's invoice. In the event Customer disputes any amount in an invoice, it must provide Radformation written notice of such dispute prior to the date the payment is due. Except for any disputed amount, Customer shall have no right of offset or withholding under this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, all payments are non-refundable and shall be payable in U.S. dollars.

7. Collection and Use of Information.
7.1. Information Collected. Customer acknowledges that Radformation may collect and store technical information about use of the Software and about equipment on which the Software is installed or through which it otherwise is accessed and used. Such information does not include any personally identifiable information or protected health information and may include, without limitation: (a) the "name" and IP address of the Client(s); (b) license key data; (c) how users interact with the Software and specific features of the Software; and (d) log crash data about the Client operating state at the time of an application crash ("Technical Data").
7.2. User Supplied Data. Customer can use functionality provided with the Software to send Radformation anonymized data ("User Supplied Data") to help Radformation troubleshoot the Software or otherwise support Customer's use of the Software. Such User Supplied Data is only provided to Radformation if initiated by Customer.

Customer agrees that Radformation may use such Technical Data and/or User Supplied Data to: (a) improve the Software or develop Updates or new Releases; (b) improve training on the use of the Software; (c) verify that the use of the Software is consistent with the licensed use under the terms of this Agreement and the applicable Quote; (d) verify Customer's compliance with the terms of this Agreement and enforce Radformation's rights, including all Intellectual Property Rights in and to the Software.
7.4. Protected Health Information. Radformation does not require access to any personally identifiable information about Customer's patients, including without limitation Protected Health Information or Individually Identifiable Health Information as those terms are defined under HIPAA, in order to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and Customer shall ensure that no such information is disclosed to or accessible to Radformation.
7.5. Imaging Plan Data. If Customer enters into an Quote for the use of Radformation Software that includes the transmission of certain imaging plan data to Radformation (including for instance Radformations's AutoContour Software and RadMonteCarlo), Customer acknowledges and agrees that in the use of the Software, certain CT or MRI images, image structures, plan, and dose information selected by Customer ("Imaging Plan Data") will be transmitted to Radformation for analysis and processing. Prior to transmission, the Software anonymizes the Imaging Plan Data so that no personally identifiable information, Protected Health Information, or Individually Identifiable Health Information is transmitted to Radformation. Radformation's Software then analyzes and processes the Imaging Plan Data before delivering the results back to Customer. Upon delivery of the results to Customer, the Imaging Plan Data is fully deleted and removed from Radformation's systems. All Imaging Plan Data is fully encrypted in transit. Except as expressly set forth in this paragraph, Radformation will make no use of Imaging Plan Data provided by Customer without Customer's prior written consent.

8.2. No Liability for Certain Losses. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement or an Quote, in no event will Radformation or its affiliates, or any of its or their respective licensors or service providers, be liable to Customer or its Representatives for any: (a) use, interruption, delay, or inability to use the Software; (b) loss or corruption of data caused by Customer or its information technology systems; (c) losses caused by Customer's systems, hardware or any software not provided by Radformation; or (d) Customer's failure to install any Patches, Updates or Releases.

9.3. Right to Separate Counsel. An indemnified party shall have the right, but not the obligation, to arrange at its own expense for separate counsel of its own selection to participate in the Claim, provided that such participation does not limit the indemnifying party's control of the defense. The indemnifying party will not settle a Claim in a manner that imposes any obligation on an indemnified party without the indemnified party's prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
9.4. Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Party will have an obligation to indemnify the other Party to the extent a Claim results from: (i) acts or omissions that would obligate the indemnified party to also indemnify the other Party; or (ii) the other Party's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
9.5. Infringement. Claims. If a Claim is made that the use of the Software or Documentation, or any portion thereof, in accordance with this Agreement, infringes any United States Intellectual Property Rights, Radformation, at its sole expense and option, shall either: (a) procure for Customer the right to exercise the rights and licenses granted hereunder with respect to the Software and Documentation; (b) modify the Software or Documentation to make it non infringing but continue to meet the Product Specifications; (c) replace the Software and Documentation with equivalent but non infringing software of like functionality that meets the Product Specifications and appropriate documentation; or (d) if options (a)-(c) are not commercially reasonable, terminate this Agreement and refund the License Fee for any unused portion of the Term.

For the avoidance of doubt, Radformation's quotation, pricing information, code, Documentation, roadmaps, and technical specifications or data, and the terms of this Agreement are deemed to be Radformation's Confidential Information whether or not they are marked or otherwise identified as confidential. All Confidential Information, including copies made by Recipient, will remain the property of Discloser.

Recipient will hold Discloser's Confidential Information in confidence and will treat Discloser's Confidential Information with the same degree of care taken to protect its own similar confidential information, but in no event with less than reasonable care. Recipient further agrees to limit disclosure of such information to those of its directors, employees, contractors, and agents who have a need for such information and who are bound under a written agreement or legal obligation to keep such information confidential. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Recipient may disclose Confidential Information as required by applicable law or by proper legal or governmental authority, provided that Recipient, if permitted by applicable law, gives Discloser prompt notice of any such legal or governmental demand and reasonably cooperates with Discloser, at Discloser sole expense, in any effort to seek a protective order or otherwise to contest such required disclosure.The obligations of confidentiality imposed by this Agreement shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Radformation will promptly notify Customer of any change in the status of the representations set forth in this section. If the representations in this section cease to be true, Customer will have the right to terminate this Agreement immediately upon providing written notice to Radformation and receive a pro rata refund of License Fees.
11.3. Governmental Audit. To the extent required by applicable law, Radformation will, until four (4) years after the termination of this Agreement, make available, upon written request by the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services or upon request by the Comptroller General of the United States General Accounting Office, or any of their duly authorized representatives, a copy of this Agreement and such books, documents, and records as are necessary to certify the nature and extent of the costs of the products and services provided under this Agreement. Radformation further agrees that, if it carries out any of its duties under this Agreement through a subcontract with a related organization with a value or cost of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or more over a twelve (12)-month period, it will include in each such subcontract a provision requiring the related organization to the costs of its products and services.
