Thank you for choosing Insight as your trusted cloud reseller partner! These terms and conditions (“Terms of Sale”) govern the purchase, access to, and use of the Cloud Services from Insight Direct USA, Inc., on behalf of itself and its U.S. affiliates (“Insight” or “We”) by the customer, including its affiliates, and/or its end users (collectively, “Client” or “You” or “Your”) identified in Your Cloud Services order form (the “Order”). These Terms of Sale are entered into by Insight and Client and are incorporated into and made part of Your Order, unless Insight and Client have signed a separate agreement which expressly governs the receipt, use of and/or access to Cloud Services (“Separate Agreement”), in which case that separate agreement will govern. Insight and Client may collectively be referred to as the “Parties” or individually as a “Party.”
Please read these Terms of Sale carefully and note that any additional or different terms or conditions in any form delivered by You are deemed to be material alterations and notice of objection to (and rejection of) them is hereby given. Any capitalized terms which are not defined in the text can be found in the Definitions section of these Terms of Sale and/or Your Order.
1. Scope of Cloud Services
1.1 Insight as Reseller. Insight is an authorized reseller of third-party Cloud Services which are performed or otherwise provided by the applicable Service Provider or through its affiliates, subcontractors, successors or assigns. Insight is in no way involved with or connected to the manufacturing or production of the Cloud Services. This means We do not perform any aspect of the Cloud Services nor do We have any access to Client Data which You may store in or process using the Cloud Services. We also do not perform any services related to implementation or configuration of Cloud Services (unless We’ve agreed to do so under the Separate Agreement).
1.2 Additional Terms and Order of Precedence. While these Terms of Sale will apply to all Order Forms for Cloud Services, some Cloud Services may have unique or specific terms which apply only to those Cloud Services on the Order Form, and which may be included as a schedule or attachment to Your Order Form or as a “click-through” (“Service-Specific Terms”). In some cases, the Service Specific terms may conflict with these Terms of Sale or other terms and conditions between You and Insight. If this happens, the order of precedence in which terms related to the Cloud Services will apply is as follows:
- Service Provider Terms.
- Service-Specific Terms.
- These Terms of Sale/the Separate Agreement.
1.3 Cloud Services Use, Rights, and Restrictions
1.3.1 Service Provider Terms. Your use of the Cloud Services is governed by the Service Provider Terms, and You assume all risks, costs and expenses in connection with Your use of the Cloud Services (except as may be otherwise set forth in the Service Provider Terms). You are solely responsible for periodically reviewing any designated Service Provider Terms URL (or successor URL, if the Service Provider makes an update) in order to understand and perform Your obligations in accordance with the Service Provider Terms.
UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED IN THE SERVICE PROVIDER TERMS, SERVICE PROVIDER TERMS IN EFFECT AT COMMENCEMENT OF EACH SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD WILL REMAIN IN EFFECT UNTIL THE END OF CLIENT’S THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, INSIGHT RESERVES THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES TO THESE TERMS OR TO THE SERVICE PROVIDER’S OFFERING TO THE EXTENT THE SAME CHANGES ARE IMPOSED BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER.
1.3.2 Compliance with Service Provider Terms. You will comply with the Service Provider Terms and look solely to Service Provider for compliance with the Service Provider’s responsibilities under the Service Provider Terms.
1.3.3 Insight Not Liable. Since Insight is not a party to the Service Provider Terms, Insight shall not be liable for (i) any claim, loss, damages, costs, or expenses arising out of either Your or Service Provider’s performance under or breach of the Service Provider Terms or (ii) any breach by Service Provider of Service Provider’s obligations under the Service Provider Terms, or for any loss, damages, costs, or expenses incurred by Client arising out of or in connection with any provisions or any actions taken by Service Provider under the Service Provider Terms, including, without limitation, any actions against Client to enforce any provisions therein.
1.3.4 Additional Usage Terms. In addition to the Service Provider Terms, You are also subject to the following usage notices and limitations:
- Territory. You are purchasing Cloud Services for use within the Territory. Unless otherwise set forth in Your Order Form or the Service Provider Terms, the Territory is worldwide.
- Service Provider Facilities. Service Provider provides the Cloud Services from Service Provider Facilities in accordance with the Service Provider Terms, which may include locations worldwide. There is no guarantee that any Service Provider Facility, or part thereof, is dedicated to Your sole use, unless otherwise set forth in the Service Provider Terms or as agreed by You and Service Provider directly.
- High Risk. The Cloud Services are not designed for use in life support, life sustaining, nuclear or other applications in which failure could reasonably be expected to result in personal injury, loss of life or catastrophic property damage.
- Business Purpose. You will use the Cloud Services for Your own use and for legitimate business purposes only. You are not permitted to resell, sub-lease, sub-rent, or sub-license the Cloud Services to any third party.
1.3.5 Intellectual Property. Each of Client, Insight, and Service Provider will own all rights, title and interest in its respective intellectual property, and You will not infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate any of these rights, title, or interests (and We agree that We will not violate Yours). No transfer of any intellectual property is contemplated under these Terms of Sale. Any license required for You to access or use the Cloud Services along with Service Provider’s specific obligations with respect to intellectual property (including indemnification, if any), will be set forth in the Service Provider Terms.
1.4 Your Responsibilities. You are responsible for the activity in Your Cloud Services accounts, including the provision of additional licenses, instances, and consumption of Cloud Services resources (as applicable). To that end, You are responsible for (a) maintaining the security of Your networks, servers, applications and access codes, including, without limitation, the backup and other protection of Your system and data against loss, damage or destruction by third parties; (b) providing information reasonably requested by Insight or Service Provider, including, without limitation, any technical and related information, and any consents that Insight or Service Provider may need from You which are necessary for Service Provider to enable the Cloud Services; and (c) working with Insight and Service Provider to resolve performance issues as necessary. It is also Your responsibility to safeguard and maintain account information and any access codes you receive for the Cloud Services. We may therefore assume, without inquiry or liability, that any person who has Your account information or access codes has the authority to access or modify Your account or the Cloud Services, or modify Your account, unless you notify Us immediately in writing of any unauthorized use of such information or codes.
2 Fees and Invoicing
2.1 Fees. Client shall pay Insight the Fees identified in the Order.
2.2 Invoicing/Payment. Fees for the Cloud Services will commence from the date the Cloud Services are made available to You by Service Provider and are non-refundable. Fees include: (a) recurring charges for identified calendar month or other mutually-agreed-upon billing period; and (b) non-recurring set up and other one-off charges (including but not limited to domain set-up charges), if any, for the identified calendar month or other mutually agreed-upon billing period. Insight will invoice You the Fees in accordance with the frequency set forth in the Order Form. Unless otherwise agreed with Insight, You must pay all invoices in full within thirty (30) days of the invoice date.
2.3 Applying for Insight Credit. To apply for credit in connection with such purchase, Client must establish an account with Insight. Client agrees to promptly: (i) provide certain accurate, current and complete information as reasonably required by Insight to process credit application or Order, or by Service Provider to provision the Cloud Services or provide technical support ; and (ii) maintain and update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete, including but not limited to, changes to Client’s billing address or e-mail address, the names of its authorized personnel, or changes in applicable credit card information (including, without limitation, any expiration or cancellation of the credit card). If Client has selected to use a credit card as its method of payment, then Client authorizes Insight to charge that credit card for such Fees (and any applicable credit card processing fees) until Cloud Services are terminated in accordance with these Terms of Sale.
2.4 Usage-Based Billing. You agree that all future increases in quantities used, enabled or consumed for existing purchased Cloud Services will be invoiced on an actual use basis. If new Cloud Services or features are procured, You may need to execute additional forms for any such net-new Cloud Services.
2.5 Taxes. Fees or prices expressed in an Order Form exclude taxes of any kind. Federal, state and local sales, use and excise taxes and all similar taxes and duties, (excluding taxes based on Insight's income, assets or net worth), are solely Your responsibility. You may provide Insight a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority prior to the start date of Your Cloud Services, which will be subject to review and acceptance by Insight. Client is solely responsible for ensuring the tax exemption certificate remains valid, up to date, and accurate at all times.
2.6 Cloud Service Credits. Your Cloud Services may be subject to Service Level Agreements, or SLAs, which are set by the Service Provider. If available and applicable to your Cloud Services, the Service Provider may offer Cloud Service credits if such SLAs are not met. If You believe You are owed a credit by the Service Provider, You must promptly inform Insight so that We can provide You any assistance, as necessary, to claim a Cloud Service credit from the Service Provider. Insight will credit your account within a reasonable time after We receive the credit from the Service Provider. Because the Service Provider must verify any request for credit, You agree that Insight is not obligated to provide any Cloud Service credit if Service Provider is unable to verify, or otherwise rejects Your claim or otherwise does not provide the Cloud Service credit for any reason. ANY CREDITS OR TERMINATION RIGHTS DESCRIBED UNDER THE SLA, IF ANY ARE PROVIDED AS PART OF THIS TRANSACTION, SHALL BE YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY TOPIC SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED BY ANY SUCH SLA’s.
3 Term; Termination/Suspension Rights; Effect
3.1 Order Term. Unless earlier terminated in accordance with this Section, the initial term of Client’s subscription of Cloud Services shall commence on the later of (i) the Effective Date, or (ii) the date the Cloud Services are made available to Client by the Service Provider as notified by the Service Provider to Insight, (“Initial Term”, which is coterminous with the Initial Subscription Period identified on the Order). Upon expiration of the Initial Term, Client’s subscription of Cloud Services will automatically renew for additional, successive terms (each a “Renewal Term”) unless Client or Insight provides notice of non-renewal in accordance with Section 4.5.6.2 (Notices – Routine) or the Order Form specifies otherwise.

3.2 Termination Rights.
3.2.1 For Cause.
3.2.1.1 By Insight. Without prejudice to any other rights to which it may be entitled, Insight may terminate the Order, in whole or in part, with immediate effect, if Client materially breaches these Terms of Sale and fails to remedy that breach within 30 days of receipt of Insight’s written notice of such breach, or if Client breaches the Service Provider Terms or Service-Specific Terms. A material breach, includes but is not limited to: (i) Client’s failure to pay Fees when due, (ii) rejection, for any reason, of any charges for Fees using a credit card provided by Client, (iii) Client’s breach of Section 5.1 (Compliance With Laws), or (iv) unauthorized use of or access to the Cloud Services. or use of or access to the Cloud Services outside of the scope of these Terms of Sale. In addition, If Service Provider suspends or terminates any part or all of the Cloud Services in connection with any “Use Issues” as defined in this paragraph, Client shall be deemed to have been in material breach of the Order. “Use Issues” means Client’s (and/or any Client end user’s) misuse of Cloud Services in violation of the Order, the Service Provider Terms or Service-Specific Terms, or due to any other negligent or wrongful act or omission of Client in connection with Client’s use of the Cloud Services. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph, if Service Provider terminates any part or all of the Cloud Services in connection with any Use Issues, Insight may terminate the Order, in whole or in part, upon written notice with immediate effect unless indicated otherwise in such notice. Client is responsible for Insight's costs of collection for any payment default, including, but not limited to, court costs, filing fees and attorneys' fees. In addition, if payments are not received as described herein, Insight reserves the right to, and may, in its sole discretion, exercise one or more of the following rights: suspend or terminate Cloud Services, and/or revoke or amend any Insight-provided credits, discounts, incentives, or concessions provided by Insight to Client under the Order. Insight may exercise these rights in addition to any other rights, remedies, or recourse Insight may have at law, in equity, or otherwise.
3.2.1.2 By Client. Client may terminate the Order if Insight materially breaches these Terms of Sale and fails to remedy that breach within 30 days after receipt of Client’s written notice of such breach. Insight shall not deemed in default if Service Provider withholds provision of Cloud Services or suspends or terminates Client’s access to, or use of, Cloud Services, or any part thereof, as allowed under this Section 4.1. Any such action by Service Provider does not give Client the right to terminate the Order.
3.2.1.3 For Cloud Services Not Provisioned. If Insight and Client enter into the Order before Service Provider agrees to provide the applicable Cloud Services to Client, and if Service Provider then refuses to provision such Cloud Services for any reason, Insight may immediately terminate the Order, without any liability for such termination, upon written notice to Client. Insight shall not be deemed in default if Service Provider withholds provision of Cloud Services or suspends or terminates Client’s access to, or use of, Cloud Services, or any part thereof, as allowed under this Section 3. Any such action by Service Provider does not give Client the right to terminate the Order.
3.2.2 For Convenience.
3.2.2.1 By Insight. The Order will automatically terminate with immediate effect, without any liability for such termination, upon written notice to Client if Service Provider terminates its agreement with Insight to resell Cloud Services.
3.2.2.2 By Client. Once Cloud Services are provisioned (made available for use by Client), an Order may generally not be terminated or suspended by Client for convenience. Client may have certain rights to terminate Cloud Services as expressly provided under the Service Provider Terms; however, Client must provide Insight prior written notice of Client’s election to exercise such termination rights, and any such election shall be exercised in accordance with the applicable Service Provider Terms.
3.3 Service Provider Suspension/Termination Rights. The provision of the Cloud Services may be withheld or the Cloud Services may be suspended or terminated, in whole or in part, by Service Provider, (a) should Client use the Cloud Services in violation of the Service Provider Terms, or any Service-Specific Terms, if applicable; or (b) under circumstances described in the Service Provider Terms. Insight will determine whether any such action by Service Provider gives Client the right to terminate the Order. To the extent that Fees continue to accrue for the duration of any withholding or suspension of the Cloud Services, or any part thereof based upon the Subscription Period, Client shall be responsible to pay for such Fees in accordance with the Order. In addition, if any Cloud Services disconnection or suspension pursuant to this Section 3.3 results in the requirement of a reasonable reinstatement fee or if Service Provider suspends any Cloud Services due to Client’s acts or omissions and requires an increase in the fees payable by Insight to Services Provider as a prerequisite for Service Provider to resume making the Cloud Services available for Client, Client agrees to pay such additional fees as invoiced by Insight.
3.4 Effect of Termination. Termination or expiration of the Order shall not relieve either party of its rights or obligations incurred prior to suspension, termination, or expiration that by their nature or term survive, including any and all payments due and payable to Insight under the Order. For the avoidance of doubt, and except as otherwise agreed by the Parties or as set forth in the Service Provider Terms, upon the termination effective date or expiration effective date of the Order, You shall cease accessing and/or using the Cloud Services.
3.4.1 Payment Upon Breach. If all or part of the Order is terminated by Insight for cause, Client shall pay Insight any unpaid Fees currently owed, as well as the Fees that would be due for the remainder of the unexpired Subscription Period and any Fees for Cloud Services performed prior to termination. All such fees shall become immediately due and payable upon any such termination. Client will not be eligible for any refund of prepaid Fees if Insight terminates the order for cause.
3.4.2 Provision of Cloud Services after Client’s Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, if despite Client’s election of termination, or any notice to terminate Cloud Services or any part thereof, Client: (i) requests the continued delivery of the Cloud Services (or part thereof) after the intended termination effective date indicated in Client’s written notice, or (ii) otherwise continues to have access to and use such Cloud Services after the intended termination date, then, even if such request or access and use is temporary, to the extent Service Provider invoices Insight for the provision of such Cloud Services to Client, Client shall pay Insight the Fees. These Terms of Sale and the Service Provider Terms will survive and govern Client’s purchase and use of Cloud Services, respectively, until the Cloud Services are terminated by Service Provider.
4 Additional Terms and Conditions

Cloud Services may also be subject to export regulations.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY CLIENT FROM INSIGHT (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ITS SALES REPRESENTATIVES), OR FROM INSIGHT’S OR SERVICE PROVIDER’S WEBSITE, WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY BY INSIGHT NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THESE TERMS OF SALE.

Each party (“Receiving Party”) will maintain in strict confidence and safeguard any Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other party (“Disclosing Party”). Each party must use the same degree of care in protecting and preserving Confidential Information as it uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information, but shall never use less than what would be a reasonable standard of care. If Client is a federal or state governmental entity, then Client agrees on behalf of the other agencies of the federal or state government who may benefit from the Cloud Services that such agencies shall be subject to the same obligations of confidentiality as set forth in these Terms of Sale. Each party agrees to use any Confidential Information only for the purpose of conducting business with each other in the manner contemplated by the Order and restrict disclosure to only those personnel who have a legitimate need to know.

If a Receiving Party is required to provide Confidential Information to any court, government agency or party pursuant to a written court order, subpoena, regulation or process of law, the Receiving Party must first promptly notify the Disclosing Party so that the Disclosing Party may have a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy from the proper authority; and to the extent permitted by law, shall only disclose that portion of Confidential Information that is legally required. Each party agrees that in the event of a breach or threatened breach of any provisions within this paragraph, the Disclosing Party is entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief, in any convenient venue or forum of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of posting bond or security, as a remedy for such breach or anticipated breach. Any such relief is in addition to, and not in lieu of any other remedies available, including, without limitation, monetary damages. For the avoidance of doubt, CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITH ALL FAULTS. Neither party makes any representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the accuracy or completeness of its Confidential Information.
