By building that platform, Rightly gives IP professionals the one tool and the integrity they need allowing them to serve more IP owners better and protect intellectual property internationally — and of course, scale their business.

By using the Rightly Suite, the Customer and Authorized User accept and agree to the terms of this Agreement. If you are using the Rightly Suite via a Customer, or you are on a free trial basis, you agree and are bound to these terms by using the Rightly Suite.

1. Use of Services

We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. You agree to review this Agreement periodically to be aware of such modifications. We will notify you of any material changes but minor wording changes having no impact on the legal position will not be forwarded. You further agree that your continued use of the Services shall be deemed to be your conclusive acceptance of any modified Agreement. A current version of this Agreement is accessible via the footer at www.rightly.io.

We are responsible for hosting the Software and the Website, and the Customer is responsible for providing the resources necessary for Authorized Users to access the Rightly Suite. The Software and the Website are accessible 24/7, at least 99.95% of the time, except for maintenance, repairs, and loss or interruption caused by reasons beyond our control and not by our negligence. Rightly warrants commercially reasonable uptime availability in the Services and accuracy in the Customers or Authorized Users files loaded in the Rightly Suite. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that your only remedy for failures, delays, or interruptions with respect to Services ordered by you is limited to a refund for such Services, at Rightly’s sole discretion. All Services are acquired by you “as is” and “where is”.

The Customer is responsible for keeping their account information current, whitelisting Our IP address, and mailing domain to ensure alerts of notifications, informing us of any errors, and ensuring that they have the infrastructure to access the Rightly Suite. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to correct any reproducible errors that prevent the Software from performing with the then-current specifications as promptly as possible.

You as a Customer accept that we provide you and your Authorized Users with notices, reminders, and messages through our Rightly Suite, Apps, and Contact Information. The Customer agrees that we will provide notices and messages to you in the following ways: (1) within the Rightly Suite, or (2) sent to the contact information you provided us (e.g., email, mobile number, physical address).

Our third
party content providers may restrict access to their content and data for the specified user(s) and, accordingly, Rightly reserves the right to restrict access to the affected Rightly Content as required by the third-party content provider. The use of third-party trademarks or other intellectual property as contained in the Services is for information purposes only and Rightly claims no rights to such intellectual property and grants no license thereto.

3. License, User Accounts, and Authorized Users

Rightly grants the Customer a non-exclusive, revocable, worldwide, royalty-free, non-transferable license to access and use the Rightly Suite in creating and managing intellectual property for the Customer’s business purposes. In general, as the Customer, you may not sub-license such license, but you may grant sublicenses to any contractors you retain solely for using the Rightly Suite to provide assistance to Authorized Users. In order to provide Authorized Users with access to certain Services, you may need to create a User for them. Authorized Users have a license to use the Rightly Suite under the terms of this Agreement.

4. Services

Our services are designed to automate, collaborate and simplify IP Management by enabling you, your clients, and Local Agents to exchange instructions and data, learn, and find business opportunities, and make decisions using a cloud-based IP Management platform built by IP professionals to IP Professionals.

We provide digitization, insights, integrity, and transparency to professionals working with IP management globally. With automation, collaboration and simplicity, we bring our Customers and their clients and Local Agents or Preferred Agents closer to having a common understanding of the value of good IP management.

Our Services allow messaging and sharing of information in many ways. Information and content that you share or post may be seen by other Authorized Users. Where we have made settings available, we will honor the choices you make about who can see content or information (e.g., IP Matters information).

As part of Our Services, we shall send reminders on your behalf to your Authorized Users of IP Records (trade mark, registered design, utility model, and patent) pending renewal based on the renewal dates that you have instructed us to enter into our system. Until instructions have been placed, Rightly will send out renewal reminders as per the following frequency:
1 January, 1 February, and 1 March for IP Records pending renewals in Q1 and Q2.
1 April, 1 May, and 1 June for IP Records pending renewals in Q2 and Q3.
1 July, 1 August, and 1 September for IP Records pending renewals in Q3 and Q4.
1 October, 1 November, and 1 December for IP Records pending renewals in Q4 and the coming calendar year.

Upon instructions from Customer or Authorized Users, you are able to select an agent from our directory of agents or invite your own preferred agent and send a Renewal Offer to 1 (one) Local Agent or your Preferred Agent to have them assume the responsibility of renewing the IP Record according to the instructions provided by the Customer or Authorized User, subject to your or your Authorized Users payment the renewal cost. Rightly automate the exchange of your instruction and the relevant data to reduce the manual and time-consuming workload of a traditional e-mail exchange of instructions and data ensuring you and the Local Agent or your Preferred Agent are constantly updated on the process of the Renewal Workflow and we are only responsible for sending the Renewal Offer to a Local Agent or your Preferred Agent it remains your responsibility to make sure that renewal dates and other deadlines are met, and any renewal fees are paid.

You must send the Renewal Offer to an Agent providing sufficient time to actually handle the renewal or you might be invoiced additional fees due to the urgent nature, so they have time to carry out the renewal prior to the renewal deadline. If we receive your instructions to renew late, the Agent may not have sufficient time to carry out your instructions prior to the deadline. In the event of late instructions, urgency charges may be incurred by the Agent and payable by You.

Certain of our Services (e.g. Online Brand Protection or Renewal workflows) are offered through the Rightly Suite. In the event you wish to purchase any of these Services, you have to contact our Customer Success Team.

Your right to any Services that are available is conditional on our receipt of the appropriate payment for such Services. If such payment cannot be charged to your credit card or if a charge is refunded for any reason, including chargeback, or, in the case of billed charges, if prompt payment of our bills is not rendered, you agree that we reserve the right to cancel your order and/or suspend or terminate your Account.

In addition to other applicable remedies, Rightly reserves the right to suspend and/or terminate Your access to the Rightly Suite and/or terminate this Agreement, upon five days’ email notice, if You no longer have a valid license in force.

We attempt to be as accurate as possible in describing Services (including pricing) offered for purchase; however, we do not warrant that all such descriptions are complete, current, or error-free.

Rightly strives to continually improve the Services and accordingly, may make improvements, changes, modifications, and updates to the features, presentation, format, and information of the Rightly Content available via the Services.

5. Disclaimer for IP Record Data provided by Customer

The Services are meant to be used by legal professionals. If you are not a legal professional, we encourage you to engage a legal counsel to interpret and investigate the data before it is delivered to Rightly either in an Excel spreadsheet, CSV-files, or through an API.

Any assessments made by our system relating to deadlines are based upon the system’s interpretation of the IP Record Data provided by the Customer. Rightly takes no responsibility for the correctness, accuracy, or quality of the IP Record Data provided. Our system does not practice law; therefore, you are encouraged to engage legal counsel to assess the information we make available to you. However, we offer Services to have Local Agents verify the IP Record Data.

6. Definition of IP Record in relation to Rightly Renewal fee set in the license agreement

An IP Record on the Rightly Suite is defined as each single of the following rights; trademark, registered design rights, copyrights, patents, utility models, and domains. The Rightly Renewal Fee set in the Service Agreement between Rightly and the Customer is applicable for each renewal of any IP Record which is handled through the Rightly Renewal workflow in the “Renewals” tab on the Rightly Suite. For renewals of any of the aforesaid rights which are pooled via WIPO or any other similar intellectual property organization, the Customer will be invoiced for each individual record that is renewed and updated with a new renewal date. As an example, a trademark filed and registered in 4 countries (jurisdictions) through the Madrid Protocol (WIPO) is calculated as 5 IP Records on the Rightly Suite (1 WIPO record and 4 national records). In the event that the WIPO record and 3 of the national records are renewed, Rightly will invoice the Customer 4 times the fee set in the license agreement, although the renewal of all 4 records in question has been handled through one payment in the WIPO system. Any records that lapses are not subject to the Rightly Renewal Fee in the license agreement.

Unless anything else explicit follows from the license agreement in question, it is mandatory for the Customer to process all renewals through the “Renewals” tab on the Rightly Suite. In that regard, it is not mandatory to use any specific agent(s) or any agents in general.

Authorized users agree to waive all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs, or counterclaims of any nature (other than compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this agreement or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of liability for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. Accordingly, some of the above limitations in sections 9 or 10 hereof may not apply to you.

“Confidential Information” means non-public information, technical data, or know-how of a party and/or its affiliates, which is furnished to the other party in written or tangible form in connection with this Agreement. Oral disclosure will also be deemed Confidential Information if it would reasonably be considered to be of a confidential nature or if it is confirmed at the time of disclosure to be confidential.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information which is: (i) already in the possession of the receiving party and not subject to a confidentiality obligation to the providing party; (ii) independently developed by the receiving party; (iii) publicly disclosed through no fault of the receiving party; (iv) rightfully received by the receiving party from a third party that is not under any obligation to keep such information confidential; (v) approved for release by written agreement with the disclosing party; or (vi) disclosed pursuant to the requirements of law, regulation, or court order, provided that the receiving party will promptly inform the providing party of any such requirement and cooperate with any attempt to procure a protective order or similar treatment.

Each party will hold in confidence the other party’s Confidential Information by means that are no less restrictive than those used for its own confidential materials. Each party agrees not to disclose the other party’s Confidential Information to anyone other than its employees or subcontractors who are bound by confidentiality obligations and who need to know the same to perform such party’s obligations hereunder. The confidentiality obligations set forth in this Section will survive for one (1) year after the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, except as otherwise agreed in writing or otherwise stated in this Agreement, each party will, upon the request of the disclosing party, either: (i) return all of such Confidential Information of the disclosing party and all copies thereof in the receiving party’s possession or control to the disclosing party; or (ii) destroy all Confidential Information and all copies thereof in the receiving party’s possession or control. The receiving party will then, at the request of the disclosing party, certify in writing that no copies have been retained by the receiving party, its employees, or agents.

In case a party receives legal process that demands or requires disclosure of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information, such party will give prompt notice to the disclosing party, if legally permissible, to enable the disclosing party to challenge such demand.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in recognition of the irreparable harm that a breach by you of the intellectual property rights of Rightly or its licensors would cause, Rightly may seek an injunction against such violation or breach in a court of competent jurisdiction.

19. GDPR

As a general principle, Rightly limits the information collected about you to only what is needed for conducting our business. “Personal Data” (PD) means any information that identifies you directly or indirectly, including, without limitation, by reference to your name, e-mail address, login ID, other contact or location data, and to one or more factors specific to your genetic, economic, cultural or social identity. You may choose to provide PD to Rightly in a number of ways: in person, telephonically, by mobile app, by email, or electronically via our websites. Examples of how you may share PD with us include: requesting a brochure or product information, requesting pitch user, requesting OBP pre-screenings, ordering software or services from us, responding to Rightly surveys, or applying for a job. We may also obtain PD from third parties (for example, credit agencies or background checks).
General Examples of PD are:
· Name (including company name for business customers)
· E-mail address
· Credit card number, financial/bank account number or wire transfer information, including routing numbers and instructions
· Passwords or personal identification codes (PINs)
· Date of birth
· Social Security number or other government identification number
· Employee number
· Professional employment information
· Company contact information for business customers
· Mailing address
· Telephone number
· IP Address allowing you to access our internet services
Rightly may compile or aggregate PD from numerous customers or Web or platform visitors to collect data about groups of customers or potential customers or categories of service. Rightly does not consider this “aggregate” information as PD because the aggregated information does not contain the PD of any individual customer or Web visitor.
Rightly retains PD only as long as is necessary for Rightly to comply with business, tax, and legal requirements. For customers, partners, vendors, and employees, this retention period is likely to be the entire time you are our customer or employee or otherwise have a relationship with us, depending on the type of PD. After our relationship is terminated we will keep your PD for a reasonable period, to maintain our records in accordance with the law and our legitimate business needs. We may keep an anonymized form of your PD, which will no longer refer to you, for statistical purposes without time limits, to the extent that we have a legitimate and lawful reason to do so.
Rightly commits to cooperate with EU data protection authorities and comply with the advice given by such authorities with regard to human resources data transferred from the EU in the context of the employment relationship.
Rightly’s customers (our licensees) can use our software products to collect PD from their employees, affiliates, law firms, agents or counterparts. The collection, access, administration, and storage of this PD are under the control of our licensees, with generally no involvement or access by Rightly personnel.
Rightly utilizes a data center that is at least ISO/IEC 27001:2013 and SOC 2, Type 2 certified, and whose practice and infrastructure are in compliance with applicable privacy laws and appropriate data transfer mechanisms. Rightly is responsible for the processing of PD it receives, under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), and other applicable data privacy laws (collectively “Privacy Laws”), and subsequently transfers to a third party acting as an agent on its behalf. Rightly complies with the EU Standard Contractual Clauses for all onward transfers of PD from the EU or Switzerland, including any onward transfer liability provisions, and has placed EU Standard Contractual Clause in force with all third parties who further transfer Personal Data acting on Rightly’s behalf.
We, at Rightly take security very seriously, which is why we use industry leaders as the technological basis of our platform.
Rightly use the following service providers:
· Firebase (Google): We store our data (IP records, matters, tasks, user data, etc.) in Firestore, which is a product in the Firebase portfolio, which in turn is a platform run and hosted by Google. Security, specifically authentication and authorization, is handled through Firebase Authentication. See information about Firebase security practices here.
· Vercel: Our front end is hosted by Vercel. See more information about their security practices here. · Render: Parts of our platform run on render.com. Render runs their platform on AWS in Europe and on Google Cloud Platform in the US. We only have services in Europe on Render. They are currently working on getting SOC 2 certified.
· Mailjet: We use Mailjet to send e-mails from our platform. See their security practices here.
· Sentry: We use Sentry for logging information about how our systems are used and to trace errors. See their security practices here.
· Algolia: We use Algolia to index certain data, making it easier and quicker to search through it. See information about their security practices here.
Rightly complies with ISO 27001.
If Rightly processes any personal data (as defined in the GDPR) of individuals located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”) or if Authorized Users are established in the EEA, the Data Processing Addendum will apply to the processing of such personal data and Authorized Users agree that under EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (“GDPR“), Rightly is the Processor and the Customer is the Controller.
