Terms and Conditions

Gladius Defense & Security Terms and Conditions
  1. License. (a) This Agreement between Gladius Defense & Security, LLC. (hereafter referred to as “GDS”) and Licensee concerns one or more electronic databases developed and maintained by GSD each consisting of (1) a proprietary database (the "Database") of defense market information, including but not limited to, the information, text, photographic and other images and data contained therein (collectively, the “Information”) and the proprietary organization and structures for categorizing, sorting and displaying such Information, (2) evaluations, guides, assessments, models, and other analyses related to defense and aerospace. Any information derived from the use of the Database and Information are collectively referred to herein as the “Licensed Product.” During the term of this Agreement, GSD hereby grants to Licensee a nonexclusive, nontransferable license to use only those portions of the Licensed Product that are expressly identified on the Subscription Form to which these GSD Terms and Conditions are attached, subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The Licensed Product may be used by no more than the number of users set forth on the Subscription Form. Except where Licensee in an individual, and therefore the sole Authorized User, all of such users (the “Authorized Users”) must be individuals (1) employed by Licensee or an Exclusive Contractor of Licensee on the Subscription Form and (2) included on GSD’s list of Authorized Users and associated sites for the Licensed Product. Licensee understands that all individuals that benefit from the Licensed Product must be an Authorized User and Licensee agrees to notify GSD if the number of such individuals exceeds the number of Authorized Users set forth in this Agreement. Licensee will ensure that access to and use of the Licensed Product, and the user names and passwords (collectively, the “Passcodes”) and any other authentication method used to access the Licensed Product are available only to Authorized Users, and will not allow anyone other than an Authorized User access to the Licensed Product or Passcodes for any reason.
  2. Use. (a) Subject to the prohibitions set forth below, during the term of this Agreement, Licensee may, in the ordinary course of business: (1) use the Licensed Product for Licensee’s internal research purposes; and (2) use the Database (A) to provide information regarding defense and aerospace to its clients and prospective clients; and(B) to market platforms and systems.  Subject to the provisions set forth below, Licensee may print Information or copy Information into word processing, spreadsheet and presentation programs (or other software programs with the express written consent of GSD), so long as the level of Information being printed or copied is reasonably tailored for Licensee’s purposes, insubstantial and used in compliance with this Section. (b) Except as set forth in Section 2(a), Licensee shall not distribute, disclose, copy, reproduce, make available, communicate to the public by telecommunication, display, publish, transmit, assign, sublicense, transfer, provide access to, use or sell, directly or indirectly (including in electronic form), any portion of the Licensed Product, or modify, adapt or create derivative works of the Licensed Product. (c) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, Licensee shall not: (1) upload, post or otherwise transmit any portion of the Licensed Product on, or provide access to any portion of the Licensed Product through, the Internet, any bulletin board system, any electronic network, any listing service or any other data sharing arrangement not restricted exclusively to Licensee and the Authorized Users.
  3. Ownership. Licensee acknowledges that the Information is comprised of data that is owned by GSD and its licensors and that GSD and its licensors have and shall retain exclusive ownership of all proprietary rights to the Licensed Product, including all U.S. and international intellectual property and other rights such as patents, trademarks, copyrights and trade secrets. This is a license agreement and not an agreement for sale. Licensee shall have no right or interest in any portion of the Licensed Product except the right to use the Licensed Product as set forth herein. Licensee acknowledges that the Software, Database, Analysis, Information and Licensed Product constitute the valuable property and confidential copyrighted information of GSD and its licensors (collectively, the “Proprietary Information”). Licensee agrees to (a) comply with all copyright, trademark, trade secret, patent, contract and other laws necessary to protect all rights in the Proprietary Information, (b) not challenge GSD’s and its licensor’s ownership of (or the validity or enforceability of their rights in and to) the Proprietary Information, and (c) not remove, conceal, obliterate or circumvent any copyright or other notice or license, use or copying technological measure or rights management information included in the Licensed Product. Licensee shall be liable for any violation of the provisions of this Agreement by any Authorized User and by Licensee’s employees, Exclusive Contractors, affiliates and agents and for any unauthorized use of the Licensed Product by such persons. Without GSD’s consent, Licensee may not use or reproduce any trademark, service mark or trade name of GSD or its licensors.
  4. Term. The term of this Agreement shall begin on the Start Date, shall continue for the initial term specified on the Subscription Form (the “Initial Term”), and shall expire at the end of such Initial Term on the last day of the calendar month in which the Start Date occurred, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. This Agreement shall continue thereafter for successive periods of one (1) year (each such successive period being a “Renewal Term”) commencing on the last day of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, unless at least sixty (60) days prior to the last day of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, either party has provided the other written notice of an intent not to renew. Licensee acknowledges that it is responsible for payment of License Fees (as defined below) pursuant to Section 5 for the entire Renewal Term unless the Agreement is terminated in accordance with the notice provisions of this Section. The “Start Date” shall be the date of dissemination by GSD of a Passcode for such Licensed Product to Licensee; provided, that for existing customers with Passcodes, the “Start Date” shall be the date of signature of this Agreement by GSD.
  5. License Fees. Licensee agrees to pay the License Fees and all other fees set forth in this Agreement, which are priced in U.S. dollars and shall be paid in U.S. dollars (the “License Fees”). Licensee’s obligation to pay such fees shall begin on the Start Date. Licensee may choose to receive invoices for the License Fees by email, regular mail or both. In addition to anything set forth herein, GSD may: at any time during a Renewal Term increase the License Fees or charge other fees for any portion of the Licensed Product or service provided by GSD, provided, that if Licensee does not agree to the increase or charge implemented solely under this Section, then Licensee may give GSD written notice of termination within sixty (60) days of GSD’s notice of such increase or charge, in which case Licensee shall continue to pay the License Fees in place before the proposed increase or charge until the last day of the calendar month in which Licensee’s notice of termination is delivered, and this Agreement shall terminate with respect to such portion of the Licensed Product on such date. All fees shall be billed in advance in accordance with the billing cycle identified herein and are due net thirty days. All payments received after the due date may be subject to a late payment charge from such due date until paid at a rate equal to the maximum rate permitted under applicable law. In all cases, the amount of License Fees shall be paid by Licensee to GSD in full without any right of set-off or deduction. GSD may accept any payment without prejudice to its rights to recover the balance due or to pursue any other right or remedy. No endorsement or statement on any check, payment, or elsewhere will be construed as an accord or satisfaction. The License Fees do not include sales, use, excise or any other taxes or fees now or hereafter imposed by any governmental authority with respect to the Licensed Products. GSD shall not be bound to use third party payment vendors, and any fees charged by such vendors shall be added to the License Fees payable hereunder.
  6. Termination. (a) Either party may terminate any portion of this Agreement in the event of: (1) any breach of a material term of this Agreement by the other party which is not remedied within thirty (30) days after written notice to the breaching party; or (2) the other party’s making an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or the filing by or against such party of a petition under any bankruptcy or insolvency law, which is not discharged within 30 days of such filing. (b) GSD may terminate any portion of this Agreement immediately without further obligation to Licensee: (1) upon GSD’s good faith determination of any violation by Licensee of any provision of Section 1, 2, 3,  or 13(a) hereunder, or any material provision of any other agreement between the parties or their affiliates; or (2) in the event that GSD discontinues the License Product or discontinues a particular product, upon five (5) days written notice at any time in GSD’s sole discretion in which case GSD shall refund any fees paid by Licensee to license the terminated portion of the Licensed Product after the effective date of such termination, and Licensee shall be released of its obligation to pay the associated License Fees due after the date of such termination. (c) GSD may interrupt the provision of any portion of the Licensed Product to Licensee upon GSD’s good faith determination of any violation by Licensee of any provision of Section 1, 2, 3, or 13(a) hereunder, or any material provision of any other agreement between the parties or their affiliates, and Licensee shall continue to be responsible for all License Fees, provided that Licensee shall not be responsible for license fees for an interrupted period if there was not an actual violation. GSD will restore the provision of the Licensed Product only if all amounts due hereunder are paid and if, in GSD’s reasonable opinion, GSD has received satisfactory assurances as to the cessation of the violation. (d) Upon Licensee’s breach of any term of this Agreement, all License Fees and all other fees payable hereunder shall become immediately due and payable in full, and in addition to the foregoing, GSD’s remedies shall include any damages and relief available at law or in equity. If GSD retains any third party to obtain any remedy to which it is entitled under this Agreement, GSD shall be entitled to recover all costs, including attorney’s fees and collection agency commissions, GSD incurs.
  7. Post-Termination. At termination or nonrenewal of this Agreement, Licensee may no longer use any portion of the Licensed Product in any manner. Within ten (10) days after the effective date of termination or nonrenewal, Licensee will permanently delete or destroy all elements of the Licensed Product under its control and upon request from GSD, affirm the completion of this process by execution and delivery to GSD of an affidavit to that effect reasonably satisfactory to GSD. In addition, GSD may at its sole expense audit Licensee’s compliance with this provision and the terms of the Agreement, provided, that such audit will occur under Licensee’s reasonable supervision and Licensee shall cooperate in the conduct of the audit. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the second sentence of this Section 7, upon any non-renewal or termination of the Agreement, Licensee shall not be required to purge from its hard-copy, electronic or email files Information from the Licensed Product that Licensee’s Authorized Users incorporated into its own reports, analyses or other materials in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and which are contained in such hard-copy, electronic or email files, (the “Post-Termination Information”); provided, however, that the Post-Termination Information may be retained solely for archival, legal or regulatory purposes and may not be used, copied, distributed or displayed for internal research or marketing or for establishing, populating or used within any defense and aerospace service or other searchable database or for any other purposes.

If a provision is held to be invalid, illegal or otherwise unenforceable, it shall be deemed to be replaced with an enforceable provision that retains the intent and benefits of the original provision. Licensee acknowledges that in the event of a breach of any of these terms by Licensee, GSD may suffer irreparable harm and shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief (without the necessity of posting a bond) as well as all other monetary remedies available at law or in equity.

Headings are for reference only. The provisions of Sections 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, and 10 through 19 hereof will survive nonrenewal or termination of this Agreement.
