Professional Services Terms and Conditions

The following are the “Professional Services Terms” which govern the delivery of consulting services provided by Catamorphic Co. dba LaunchDarkly (“LaunchDarkly”) to the client or customer noted in the applicable Services Order (“Customer”) which is entered into by and between the parties and references these Professional Services Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in these Professional Services Terms have the meanings assigned to them elsewhere in the Agreement.

1. PURCHASE OF SERVICES

1.1 SERVICES ORDER. The “Professional Services” provided under these Professional Services Terms will be those set forth in any mutually agreed services schedule, order form, statement of work or other document executed by LaunchDarkly and Customer referencing these Professional Services Terms (each, a “Services Order” or “Order”). The Professional Services may include configuration, implementation, training, or other consultation related to a LaunchDarkly product or service that Customer has received rights to use under a separate agreement (the “LaunchDarkly Platform”). Each Services Order shall be governed by these Professional Services Terms (together the “Agreement”). Any changes to this Agreement will only be as mutually agreed to by the parties by execution of an amendment to the Agreement, including any change orders.

1.2 DIRECT PURCHASES. For Service Orders purchased directly with LaunchDarkly, the Customer shall pay all fees specified in the Service Order (the “Fees”). Each Service Order with LaunchDarkly shall be signed by both parties or issued by LaunchDarkly and executed by Customer via the issuance of a purchase order that incorporates the Service Order by reference, subject to acceptance of such purchase order by LaunchDarkly. Except as otherwise specified herein or in an Order, payment obligations are non-cancelable, and all fees paid are non-refundable. Customer is responsible for ensuring that it has provided LaunchDarkly with the most current billing information. In the event Customer issues purchase orders in its normal course of business and furnishes LaunchDarkly with a purchase order number in advance of the invoice date, LaunchDarkly will make every reasonable effort to reference such purchase order number on the invoice. Invoices will be sent via email to the email indicated in the Billing Information section of each Order Form. Unless otherwise specified in the Order, payment for any fees will be due within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice. LaunchDarkly reserves the right to suspend the delivery of Services in the event that Customer is more than 30 days delinquent in its payment obligations hereunder.

  • 1.2.1 - Taxes. LaunchDarkly’s Fees do not include any Taxes, and Customer is responsible for paying all Taxes arising from its purchases hereunder, excluding Taxes based on LaunchDarkly’s net income, employees, or property. “Taxes” as used herein means any direct or indirect local, state, federal or foreign value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes. If LaunchDarkly has the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which Customer is responsible, the appropriate amount of such Taxes shall be invoiced to and paid by Customer, unless Customer provides a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority in advance. The failure to include Taxes on an invoice does not relieve the Customer of its obligation to pay such Taxes as required in the applicable taxing jurisdiction. All amounts payable to LaunchDarkly under this Agreement shall be without set-off and without deduction of any taxes, levies, imposts, charges, withholdings and/or duties of any nature which may be levied or imposed, including without limitation, value added tax, customs duty and withholding tax. Further, Customer agrees that in the case where Taxes are required to be deducted from payments to LaunchDarkly, such as but not limited to VAT, GST or similar withholding obligations, Customer will increase the Fees payable to LaunchDarkly so that LaunchDarkly receives from Customer (without any liability for Taxes) the amount equal to the total Fees LaunchDarkly would have received but for such withholding or deductions (the “True Up”).
  • 1.2.2 - Overdue Charges. If any invoiced amount not subject to good faith dispute is not received by LaunchDarkly by the due date, then without limiting LaunchDarkly’s rights or remedies Customer agrees that LaunchDarkly may impose interest at the rate of 1.5% of the outstanding balance per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower. LaunchDarkly may also suspend delivery of the Services

1.3 PURCHASES THROUGH A PARTNER. For any Services purchased by Customer through a Partner, the pricing and payment terms are as established through the order or agreement entered into by and between Customer and the Partner and all payments will be made directly to Partner. If a Partner is entitled to terminate or suspend any Services purchased by Customer due to non-payment and notifies LaunchDarkly, LaunchDarkly may suspend or terminate the Services identified by the Partner.

2. SCOPE OF PROFESSIONAL SERVICES

LaunchDarkly offers the LaunchDarkly Platform as a service of general utility provided by LaunchDarkly to all customers the same way at the same time, leveraging the same code base. As provided by LaunchDarkly over the internet, the LaunchDarkly Platform itself is not customizable for one customer to differentiate from how it is provided to any other customer. Customer’s use of the LaunchDarkly Platform is highly configurable within the service itself, however, these configurations are available to all of LaunchDarkly’s customers. Therefore, the scope of any Professional Services shall be limited to (i) deployment assistance and planning, (ii) configuration and integration assistance; and (iii) training on the use and operation of the LaunchDarkly Platform. Professional Services shall not constitute works-for-hire.

3. TERM AND TERMINATION

The Agreement shall remain in effect from the effective date specified in the Order and for so long as any Services Order remains in effect. Each Services Order, with respect to the Services, shall become effective on the effective date specified in the applicable Services Order (“Services Effective Date”) and shall expire on the earlier of (a) the date that Services are completed thereunder, or (b) any expiration date set forth on the Services Order (“Services Completion Date”). Either party may terminate the Services Order upon written notice given to the other party, if the other party materially breaches the Services Order and fails to cure such breach within thirty (30) days following receipt of notice describing the breach. Upon termination by Customer for LaunchDarkly’s material breach, Customer shall be liable only for payment for the Services rendered through the termination date and shall receive from LaunchDarkly a pro-rata refund of any unused, prepaid fees for Services.

4. CUSTOMER RESPONSIBILITIES

4.1 Prior to the start of the Professional Services, Customer will identify a primary responsible person who will have the authority to act on Customer’s behalf in all matters regarding the Services (“Primary Responsible Person”).

The Primary Responsible Person will:

  • 4.1.1 - Obtain and provide correct and applicable information, data, consents, decisions and approvals without delay as required by LaunchDarkly to perform the Professional Services;
  • 4.1.2 - Promptly provide access, workspace and connectivity to the systems and other facilities necessary for LaunchDarkly’s personnel, and help resolve and escalate Professional Services issues within Customer’s organization, as necessary; and

Customer will not share administrative credentials to LaunchDarkly employees and/or personnel.If required by the scope of the applicable Services Order, Customer will create temporary access credentials for the LaunchDarkly Platform for use by LaunchDarkly employees and/or personnel valid on the start date and automatically expiring upon completion of the relevant Services.

5. LAUNCHDARKLY RESPONSIBILITIES

LaunchDarkly will perform Services based on a schedule mutually agreed to by the parties. Services will expire unless the Services are scheduled and delivered by the applicable expiration date stated in the Services Order. Services will ordinarily be performed by a LaunchDarkly service representative or other authorized representative of LaunchDarkly, and may include participation from other authorized representatives for the purpose of professional development.
