Terms of Use
Find legal information and resources for Clever Cloud products and services Updated on the 27th of february, 2018
1. Preamble
1.1 CLEVER CLOUD has designed and developed a software application with standard and customizable options (the “Software”) and online access, which allows its clients to entrust its entire information system infrastructure to CLEVER CLOUD. As an additional option, the CLIENT may ask CLEVER CLOUD to install on its Software all the CLIENT’s applications (software package or specific applications), to manage its personal data silos and/or to insure the full management of its logs and of the application logs of its administrators or of its final clients.
1.2 The CLIENT wishes to be able to use the Software online and to benefit from the services offered by CLEVER CLOUD under the following terms.
1.3 In accordance with the obligation to negotiate in good faith (Art. 1104 [new] Civil Code), the CLIENT declares that, prior using the Software:
1/ the CLIENT has performed an accurate written analysis of its needs;
2/ CLEVER CLOUD has provided the CLIENT, in particular in the business and technical proposal,, the details of the explicit essential features of the service proposed by CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1133 [new] Civil Code) enabling, in particular, the CLIENT to assess the adequacy of the Service for its needs;
3/ the CLIENT has received from CLEVER CLOUD all the information that is crucial for its consent, which have a direct and necessary relation with the content and the essential features of the Service or the capacities of CLEVER CLOUD (Art1112-1 [new] Civil Code).
1.4 CLEVER CLOUD reminds CLIENT that (i) CLEVER CLOUD's duty to inform does not relate to the assessment of the value of the SaaS Service (Art. 1112-1 [new] Civil Code) that CLEVER CLOUD agrees to supply to the CLIENT and (ii) any inaccurate economic assessment of the SaaS Service by the CLIENT, prior to using the Software, is not grounds for cancellation of the Terms of use (Art. 1136 [new] Civil Code).
1.5 CLEVER CLOUD draws the CLIENT's attention to the fact that the SaaS Service offered by CLEVER CLOUD is a standard service designed for companies of varying sizes operating in different business sectors. It is therefore up to the CLIENT, prior to using the Software (i) to verify that the SaaS Service meets its needs and (ii) to ensure that the SaaS Service is scaled in such a way that allows it to fulfill the CLIENT’s own professional objectives, of which CLEVER CLOUD would not be aware. Consequently, in the event that the CLIENT has not (i) remitted to CLEVER CLOUD a preliminary written analysis of its needs or (ii) sent, in writing, to CLEVER CLOUD the details of the information that is crucial to its consent or (iii) informed CLEVER CLOUD, in writing, of all the essential features of the service expected from CLEVER CLOUD, the CLIENT acknowledges that CLEVER CLOUD Terms of Use will serve as expression of its needs, thus waiving any implicit essential feature of the provision of service by CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1133 [new] Civil Code) of which CLEVER CLOUD may not be aware.
1.6 The parties declare that the pre-Collaboration negotiations were freely carried out (Art. 1112 [new] Civil Code) and that the provisions of the Collaboration were freely negotiated (Art. 1110 [new] Civil Code).
The parties have therefore agreed to the following terms.
This means you know how these terms work and you have understood what Clever Cloud can bring to you as an online service.
2. Definitions
2.1 Administrator
Refers to the User chosen by the CLIENT to centralize the communication between the CLIENT and CLEVER CLOUD and to manage the operational aspects of implementation of the SaaS Service by the CLIENT.
2.2 Bug
Refers to any SaaS Service malfunctions specifically related to a problem affecting the Software. A “Blocking” bug is one that completely prevents the use of the Software by the CLIENT. A “Major” bug is one that substantially degrades or restricts the performance and/or one or more major features of the Software.
2.3 Software
Refers to the Software on the Platform. The Software can only be accessed remotely, by connecting Users to the Platform. The Software includes the back office, which provides access to the Administrator to the configuration functions of the SaaS Service.
2.4 Maintenance
Refers to the Software's corrective maintenance service and assistance/user support service. The cost of this provision is included in the SaaS Royalty. The obligations of CLEVER CLOUD under this provision are specifically defined in the section “Maintenance / Assistance / Support.”
2.5 Implementation
Refers to the preparatory phase for the Start of Production of the SaaS Service, which enables CLEVER CLOUD to prepare an instance of its Software specially for the CLIENT and to scale the SaaS Service to the extent desired by the CLIENT. The costs of Implementation are not included in the amount of the Royalty and are paid as a supplementary cost.
2.6 Collaboration
Refers to the first time the CLIENT starts using the Software until the last time he is using it, or until the Termination.
2.7 Platform
Refers to all the hardware and software of the hosting data center on which the Software is installed and from which the SaaS Service is provided to the CLIENT.
2.8 SaaS Royalty
Refers to the amount due by the CLIENT to CLEVER CLOUD in exchange (Art. 1107 [new] Civil Code) for the right to use the SaaS Service, except for additional services (Implementation phase, training, etc.). The deadline for payment of SaaS Royalty’s invoices is 30 days.
2.9 SaaS Service
Refers to the right of the CLIENT (i) to access the Platform to use the Software, (ii) to benefit
from the Software’s hosting services and CLIENT’s Data backup services on the Platform,
(iii) to benefit from the maintenance provisions described in the Section “Maintenance / Assistance / Support”. Services included in the definition of SaaS Service form an indivisible whole for CLEVER CLOUD.
2.10 User(s)
The CLIENT determines the opening of rights and entitlements of each User under its sole responsibility via the Software’s back office which is only accessible to the Administrator. It is the responsibility of the CLIENT to provide User training prior to the use of the SaaS Service in actual conditions of production.
This lists the general vocabulary used in these terms.
3. Purpose Of Terms Of Use – Features Of The Service
3.1 The purpose of Terms of use is to define the terms and conditions under which CLEVER CLOUD, through the use of the Software, provides the SaaS Service for the benefit of the CLIENT in return for payment of the Royalty. Use of the SaaS Service is granted to the CLIENT for the sole benefit of its Users, for the sole needs of its business, and not for processing data for the benefit of third parties, either free of charge or paid.
3.2 The list of services comprising the SaaS Service, the availability rate of the SaaS Service and the list of Software modules chosen by the CLIENT (i) together explicitly and exhaustively describe the essential features of the SaaS Service rendered by CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1133 [new] Civil Code), excluding any implied features that the CLIENT may expect and which CLEVER CLOUD cannot legitimately be aware of, and (ii) together ensure that the SaaS Service rendered by CLEVER CLOUD is of a quality that complies with the legitimate expectations of the CLIENT and CLEVER CLOUD, taking into account the nature of the services that constitute, together and indivisibly, the SaaS Service rendered by CLEVER CLOUD and of the purposes and the amount of consideration the CLIENT agrees to pay to CLEVER CLOUD to use the SaaS Service (Art. 1166 [new] Civil Code).
3.3 At the request of the CLIENT, CLEVER CLOUD can perform additional services (advice, support, configuration, training, etc.), other than those explicitly included in the SaaS Service. Any additional services to be performed by CLEVER CLOUD must be the subject to a quotation from CLEVER CLOUD and a written and express acceptance from the CLIENT before being carried out by CLEVER CLOUD. These services are invoiced separately, in addition to the SaaS Royalty.
The service is for your use only, as a single customer or a company; and you're not going to give away your credentials to a third party. This also says that any additional services outside of our online documentation and public pricing provided on demand may be subject to additional fees.
4. Strict Limits For Use Of The Software And Saas Service
4.1 Terms of use include the right to use the Software, in a non-exclusive and non- transferable manner, and may not be sub-licensed, assigned, transferred or made available
to a third party, free of charge or paid, in any practical or legal manner whatsoever. The SaaS Service and the Software are intended to be used:
- only by remote access on the Platform chosen by CLEVER CLOUD, in compliance with the rules of identification and assignment of rights of the Users chosen by the CLIENT via the back office of the Software;
- only for the processing of the CLIENT's professional Data by the Users under the terms strictly defined in this Article.
4.2 Any modification or attempt by the CLIENT to modify the terms of access or use of the Software or the SaaS Service (access to the SaaS Service through any mean not authorized nor expected for by CLEVER CLOUD, unauthorized increase in the number of Users) or any use of the Software or SaaS Service under conditions not provided for in Terms of use without the prior written consent of CLEVER CLOUD represents a considerable danger to the continuity of CLEVER CLOUD's business whose intellectual property in the Software constitutes an essential asset. Consequently, any modification or attempt to modify the terms of use of the SaaS Service, the Software or the Platform, whether voluntary or not, by the CLIENT is deemed to constitute a sufficiently serious breach on the part of the CLIENT which entails the right of CLEVER CLOUD to suspend immediately and automatically the SaaS Service (Art. 1219 [new] Civil Code) upon the date of information to this effect by CLEVER CLOUD to the CLIENT, especially through an Email confirmed by a notification (Article 13.7 “Notification”).
4.3 The login credentials of the CLIENT's Users to access the Software are personal and confidential. They are assigned by the Administrator of the CLIENT under its own responsibility. They may only be changed by the CLIENT or at the initiative of CLEVER CLOUD, provided that the CLIENT is informed immediately. The CLIENT agrees to take all necessary measures to keep the Users login IDs secret and not disclose them in any form whatsoever. The CLIENT is solely responsible for the use of the IDs which it alone manages through the back office of the Software. In general, the CLIENT assumes responsibility for the physical and logical security of the individual access terminals to the Software. In the event that the CLIENT becomes aware that an unauthorized person has gained access to the Software, the CLIENT agrees to inform CLEVER CLOUD immediately. In the event of loss, theft or usurpation of the Users login IDs, the CLIENT will use only the back office procedure of the Software, allowing him to recover his identifiers or create new ones.
4.4 By using the SaaS Service, the CLIENT must comply with, and refrain from violating, any right of any other person, entity, contractual duty and laws including laws forbidding distribution of child pornography, forgery, identity theft, interference with electronic communications, invasion of privacy, unlawful sending of commercial/marketing messages, collection of excessive user data from children, securities violations, wire fraud, money laundering, terrorist activities, false advertising, propagating or profiting from frauds and unfaire scheme.
4.5 The CLIENT agrees not to :
-Take action that might generate unreasonable or disproportionately (as determined by us) large load
on our and on our third party providers’ infrastructure
-Abusive use of network bandwidth
-Interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the SaaS service
-Run any form of “spam” on the SaaS Service
-Use the SaaS Service for any high risk activities including nuclear facilities, air traffic control, life customer systems or any other use where the failure of service could lead to death, personal injury or environmental damage (contact xxxxx@xxxxxx-xxxxx.xxx for appropriate answers)
Our service is accessible through login and passwords (with optional 2FA) and cannot be transferred or sub-licensed. Also, using our service implies that you fully comply with the law and use the service in a ethical way.
5. Availability Of Saas Service
5.1 CLEVER CLOUD guarantees, within the context of a performance obligation, the SaaS Service availability rate of ninety-nine point nine (99,9) % per year. Compliance by CLEVER CLOUD with the availability rate is as a feature of the service of CLEVER CLOUD in accordance with the legitimate expectations of the parties (Art. 1166 [new] Civil Code) in consideration of the nature, uses and amount of the consideration CLIENT agrees to pay to CLEVER CLOUD to use the SaaS Service.
5.2 The SaaS Service availability rate is calculated “Platform start”. By express agreement, the availability rate of the SaaS Service does not take into account (i) any interruptions in the operation of the Internet for which CLEVER CLOUD can in no way be responsible, or (ii) any scheduled maintenance operations of the Software or the Platform for which the CLIENT is informed by CLEVER CLOUD with at least ten (10) days notice.
5.3 The duration of the SaaS Service's unavailability due to the correction of the Blocking or Major Bugs in the Software or of the Platform according to the terms set forth in the “Maintenance/Assistance/Support” section is taken into account in the calculation of the rate of availability of the SaaS Service.
5.4 CLEVER CLOUD reminds the CLIENT (i) that the provision of a connection between the Platform and the CLIENT's computer system is not included in the services provided by CLEVER CLOUD in accordance with the SaaS Service and (ii) that it is up to the CLIENT to have a connection to a communication network in order to receive and transmit data from the Platform.
5.5 CLEVER CLOUD REMINDS THE CLIENT THAT THE INTERNET, WHICH ENABLES A CLEVER CLOUD TO PROVIDE THE SAAS SERVICE, IS AN OPEN AND INFORMAL NETWORK, CONSISTING OF THE INTERNATIONAL INTERCONNECTION OF INDEPENDENT COMPUTER NETWORKS USING THE TCP/IP PROTOCOL, WITHOUT ANY OBLIGATION TO SUPPLY OR CAPACITY TO SUPPLY BETWEEN OPERATORS OF THESE NETWORKS. CONSEQUENTLY, CLEVER CLOUD CANNOT GUARANTEE (i) ANY AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICE WHICH TAKES ACCOUNT OF THE FUNCTIONING OF THE INTERNET, (ii) OR THAT THE USE OF THE SAAS SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED.
The service is guaranteed to be available 99.9% of the year, on the condition that there is no Internet failure or any other global and/or catastrophical event which would be way out of our hands, (Heavy rain, giant meteor hitting earth, etc. You got the idea).
6.Penalty For Non-Compliance With The Availability Rate Of The Saas Service
6.1 Failure to comply for CLEVER CLOUD with the availability rate indicated in the Terms of use entails for CLEVER CLOUD the obligation to compensate the damages suffered by the CLIENT and to pay damages (Art. 1231-5 [new] Civil Code) in the form of a penalty.
The penalty is calculated according to the formula P = M x R where: P = amount of penalty;
M = number of consecutive minutes of SaaS Service’s unavailability;
R = amount of the 12-month SaaS Royalty reported in minutes (1 month being deemed to include 30 days and 1 year 360 days) multiplied (x) by two (2).
6.2 The penalty is payable only after formal notice to CLEVER CLOUD by the CLIENT, unless there is definite breach of CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1231-5 [new] Civil Code) and subject to proof by the CLIENT of the unavailability of the SaaS Service for the alleged duration.
6.3 CLEVER CLOUD agrees to pay the amount of the penalty within thirty (30) days of receipt of the CLIENT'S invoice, without the CLIENT being able to compensate the amount of sums he owes to CLEVER CLOUD in respect of the SaaS Royalty with that of the penalty. The penalty is not subject to VAT (BOI-TVA-base-10-10-30-20140115 No. 70). Pursuant to Article 1231-5 [new] Civil Code, payment by CLEVER CLOUD of the penalty is exclusive of any other claim for damages to the CLIENT for the same prejudice and does not entitle the CLIENT to terminate the SaaS Service (except in the case of following section), the CLIENT's prejudice having been repaired by payment to the CLIENT of damages. The payment of the penalty by CLEVER CLOUD shall constitute recognition and acceptance by the parties of (i) the imperfect performance of the SaaS Service already rendered during the contested period (Art. 1223 [new] Civil Code) and (ii) the proportional reduction of the SaaS Service price over the period concerned.
6.4 In any case, the aggregate amount of penalties to be paid by CLEVER CLOUD over the last twelve (12) months of actual use of the SaaS Service by the CLIENT shall be limited to a maximum of ten (10)% of the total amount of the SaaS Royalty, excluding tax, actually paid by the CLIENT.
We will have to compensate our customers if we cannot maintain the 99.9% availability rate based on the calculation presented in this article.
7. Obligation To Collaborate
7.1 As soon as the CLIENT agreed to the Terms of use, each party agrees to execute the Term of uses in good faith, in particular by cooperating with the other party in the execution of the services it is responsible for, for example by communicating to the other party all documents, information and information necessary or requested to enable CLEVER CLOUD to provide the SaaS Service under the Terms of use.
7.2 The CLIENT acknowledges having been informed by CLEVER CLOUD that the implementation and the correct use of the SaaS Service is likely to depend on the CLIENT's ability to train its Users in advance in the use of the SaaS Service and to adapt some of its internal organizational and/or operational processes.
We truly hope that you've signed-up to Clever Cloud with a spirit of cooperation with us. We also assume that you know what you're doing when you are using Clever Cloud, and have sufficient technical abilities to run our developer-oriented service.
8. Financial Terms
8.1 General provisions
The amount and terms of payment are as described in our pricing page xxxxx://xxx.xxxxxx- xxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxx to which applicable taxes associated with the Software applies .In general terms, CLEVER CLOUD's invoices are payable, in advance, within thirty (30) days maximum from the date of invoice.
8.2 Late payment and suspension of execution
8.2.1 Compliance by the CLIENT with the deadlines for payment of the SaaS Royalty constitutes an explicit essential feature of the CLIENT's services expected by CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1133 [new] Civil Code). Any late payment by the CLIENT of more than thirty
(30) days after the agreed deadline and after reminder by email from CLEVER CLOUD to the CLIENT is deemed to constitute a sufficiently serious default on the part of the CLIENT (Art. 1219 [new] Civil Code) to entitle CLEVER CLOUD to immediately suspend the execution of the SaaS Service, with simultaneous notification of the CLIENT by CLEVER CLOUD, without further notice or formality of any kind.
8.2.2 In accordance with Article L.441-6 of the Commercial Code, in the event of non- payment of all or part of the SaaS Royalty (or any other amount owed by the CLIENT) within the deadlines, (i) any unpaid amount will automatically generate daily interest until the date of full payment of principal, interest, charges and related expenses, at a rate equal to FIVE
(5) times the legal interest rate, without a reminder being necessary and without prejudice to the damages that CLEVER CLOUD reserves the right to pursue legally; (ii) in accordance with Article L.441-6 of the Commercial Code, a lump sum indemnity for collection costs, the amount of which is set in Article D.441-5 of the Commercial Code, will be automatically due for each invoice concerned. Pursuant to Article L.441-6 of the Commercial Code, the recovery costs, documented on the invoice, of amounts owed by the CLIENT (costs of proceedings, expenses, disbursements and attorney and bailiff fees) are deemed to constitute a related expense of the claim of CLEVER CLOUD and are entirely the responsibility of the CLIENT until the CLIENT’s claim shall be repaid.
8.2.3 In the event of termination of the Terms of use by CLEVER CLOUD for non-payment by the CLIENT shall be immediately payable by way of provisional compensation for the prejudice suffered by CLEVER CLOUD, notwithstanding the right of CLEVER CLOUD to seek legal compensation for its total prejudice. For benefits calculated on the basis of a quantifiable result (for example, a number of clicks measured during a given period), the amount of the provisional compensation to CLEVER CLOUD will be calculated on the price
due by the CLIENT for the last full month of performance of the service concerned invoiced by CLEVER CLOUD. Failure by the CLIENT to pay the provisional indemnity within sixty (60) days of the notice of termination will constitute a manifestly illegal disturbance for CLEVER CLOUD.
8.3 Unpredictable economic circumstances
Pursuant to Article 1195 [new] Civil Code, CLEVER CLOUD declares to not accept (i) the risk of an upward fluctuation in the cost of hosting and storing the CLIENT Software and Data invoiced to it by a Platform that operates these benefits on an outsourcing basis with CLEVER CLOUD nor (ii) the risk of upwards fluctuation in the cost of the services related to the encryption of CLIENT Data or the CLIENT's connection to CLEVER CLOUD's platform. Consequently, any increase of more than fifteen (15)% of any of these specific services announced by CLEVER CLOUD to the CLIENT shall be deemed to constitute an unpredictable economic circumstance rendering the provision of the Service for CLEVER CLOUD excessively expensive.
8.4 Imperfect performance of services and reduction of price
8.4.1 In the event of imperfect performance of the services under the responsibility of CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1223 [new] Civil Code) (i) that not sanctioned by penalties and (ii) for which the CLIENT has begun to pay, the CLIENT may, after formal notice from CLEVER CLOUD, request a proportional reduction of the price of the SaaS Royalty. In this case, the CLIENT and CLEVER CLOUD agree to negotiate in good faith a new price which, to be applicable, must be concluded within thirty (30) days of the CLIENT's notification. Failing agreement within this period, the Collaboration shall be terminated by notice at the initiative of either party.
8.4.2 If the CLIENT has not paid for the services which have been imperfectly executed (even for services actually invoiced but for which payment was not actually received by CLEVER CLOUD), upon receipt of the notice by the CLIENT and by express waiver of Article 1223 para. 2 [new] Civil Code, CLEVER CLOUD shall immediately inform the CLIENT of its decision to suspend the performance of the Service, said failure to pay being deemed to constitute a sufficiently serious breach by the CLIENT (Art. 1219 [new] Civil Code).
Our invoices are due 30 days in advance, penalty may be applied if the payment is more than 30 days late.
9. Liability And Insurance
9.1 CLEVER CLOUD reminds the CLIENT that the Software and the SaaS Service allow the CLIENT to improve the relevance or the efficiency of his company but do not constitute a service likely to affect the operation of the production of CLIENT products or services. CLEVER CLOUD is liable for direct, immediate (Art. 1231-4 [new] Civil Code) and foreseeable damages (Art. 1231-3 [new] Civil Code) caused by partial or total poor performance of the Terms of use that can be proven by the CLIENT. CLEVER CLOUD is in no way liable for indirect, unforeseeable or consequential damages caused by partial or total failure to perform the Service, including the cost of obtaining software or providing a substitute service to the Software or the SaaS Service.
9.2 In any event, the total amount of the financial liability of CLEVER CLOUD is limited to the amount of the SaaS Royalties paid by the CLIENT for the last twelve (12) months of actual use of the SaaS Service (Art. 1231-3 [new] Civil Code), except in the case of (i) bodily injury,
(ii) gross or fraudulent misconduct of CLEVER CLOUD (Art. 1231-3 [new] Civil Code), (iii) infringement by CLEVER CLOUD of the intellectual property rights of a third party or (iv) non-compliance by CLEVER CLOUD with the criminal sanctions of the GRDP. The CLIENT shall be entitled to hold CLEVER CLOUD liable for only one (1) year from the occurrence of the breach in question.
9.3 CLEVER CLOUD declares that it has insurance with an insurance company with a reputation of creditworthiness, covering the consequences of its civil and professional liability which may be incurred by it as a result of the performance of the Terms of use. The payment of the annual insurance premium by CLEVER CLOUD takes into account the amount of the indemnity offered by CLEVER CLOUD under the Terms of use. In the event that the CLIENT desires an additional level of compensation for its losses, CLEVER CLOUD will offer the CLIENT an Amendment to his insurance policy and the CLIENT will bear the full amount of the surcharge requested by the insurance company of CLEVER CLOUD to cover the specific risk requested by the CLIENT.
We are not liable for indirect or unforeseeable damages that could be caused by failure to perform our service. As reasonable people, we have an insurance covering our civil and professional liability.
