Vorellis shall not be liable for any interruptions, delays, loss of access, errors, slowdowns, incompatibilities, data loss, transmission failures or performance degradation caused by factors beyond its reasonable control, including:

a) the Client’s systems, networks, devices, browsers, configurations or suppliers;
b) third-party services connected to or authorised by the Client;
c) internet, telecommunications or public infrastructure providers;
d) failures of cloud providers or third-party service providers;
e) acts or omissions of the Client or its authorised Users;
f) incorrect configuration of the Account by the Client;
g) improper or abusive use of the Services;
h) a force majeure event or an external incident reasonably beyond Vorellis’s control.

This clause does not limit Vorellis’ obligations as expressly set out in the Addendum on the processing of personal data, including its annex on security measures, or in Annex A.

10.10 Status Page and Operational Communications

Vorellis may provide a status page, portal, dashboard, in-app notification, email, or any other reasonable means to communicate information regarding the availability, outages, maintenance, or operational incidents affecting the Services.

These communications are provided for operational purposes. They do not amend the Agreement, unless expressly stated in writing by Vorellis.

10.11 Technical Support

The technical support applicable to the Services is that set out in Appendix A, the relevant Purchase Order or any applicable support policy.

Unless otherwise specified, technical support covers assistance with accessing the Services, the general operation of the platform, reasonably reproducible technical issues, and general usage queries.

Technical support does not include, unless otherwise specified:

a) professional services;
b) the full configuration of the Client’s compliance programme;
c) the correction of the Client’s Data;
d) legal or professional validation of the Results generated;
e) the resolution of problems caused by the Client’s third-party systems, networks, devices, configurations or services;
f) personalised support not provided for in the Client’s Subscription plan.

10.12 Changes imposed by third parties

The Client acknowledges that certain components of the Services may depend on third-party providers, APIs, services, models, infrastructure, app stores, operating systems, browsers or technologies.

If a third party modifies, suspends, withdraws, restricts, or renders incompatible a service, API, licence, technology, or functionality necessary for the Services, Vorellis may reasonably modify the Services to maintain their operation, security, or compliance.

Vorellis shall not be liable for any loss of functionality or modification necessitated by a decision, restriction, change or failure of a third party beyond its reasonable control.

11. Limited Warranties and Exclusions

11.1 Limited Warranty of Service Provision

Vorellis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Services in accordance with the Contract, the applicable Purchase Order and Annex A.

This warranty is a warranty of means and not a warranty of result.

11.2 Limited Security Warranty

Vorellis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to implement and maintain reasonable technical, organisational and administrative measures to protect the Services and the Client’s Data, in accordance with the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information, including its annex relating to security measures, where applicable.

This warranty does not replace the Client’s security obligations, in particular concerning the management of Authorised Users, Credentials, devices, networks, configurations, access, exports and Client Data.

11.3 Limited Warranty Regarding Rights

Vorellis represents that, to the best of its knowledge, it has the necessary rights to provide the Services to the Client in accordance with the Agreement.

This warranty does not apply to the Client’s Data, third-party services connected to or authorised by the Client, content provided by the Client, the Client’s instructions, or any use of the Services contrary to the Agreement.

11.4 No warranty of compliance

The Services may assist the Client in structuring, documenting, analysing, prioritising, monitoring or managing certain aspects of its compliance, governance, cybersecurity, risk management or data protection programme.

However, Vorellis does not warrant that the use of the Services will ensure the Client’s compliance with any law, regulation, standard, framework, contractual requirement, internal policy, auditor’s expectation or supervisory authority’s position.

Nor does Vorellis warrant that the use of the Services will prevent a complaint, a request for access, an incident, an investigation, a sanction, a loss, a claim, a finding of non-compliance or a failed audit.

11.5 No guarantee of legal or professional accuracy

The Services, including the generated Results and AI Features, do not constitute legal advice, a legal opinion, professional advice, an audit, a certification, an attestation, regulatory validation or a professional decision.

Vorellis does not guarantee that the Generated Results are complete, accurate, sufficient, up to date, suitable for all of the Client’s circumstances, or legally valid for a particular situation.

The Client must review, validate, and approve the Generated Results before relying on, using, transmitting them to a third party, or making a decision based on them.

11.6 No warranty regarding the Client’s Data

Vorellis does not guarantee the accuracy, quality, legality, completeness, relevance, sufficiency or timeliness of the Client Data.

The Results generated may be incomplete, inaccurate or inappropriate if the Client Data is incomplete, inaccurate, out of date, poorly categorised, insufficient, contradictory or misinterpreted by the Client.

The Client remains responsible for verifying the Client Data, correcting errors and keeping their information up to date.

11.7 No warranty regarding AI Features

The AI Features are provided as support tools. They may produce results that are incomplete, inaccurate, ambiguous, unsuitable, out of date or requiring human validation.

Vorellis does not guarantee that the AI Features will always produce a response that is accurate, complete, compliant, relevant or appropriate to the Client’s context.

The Client must not use the AI Features as a substitute for human, legal, professional, technical, security or compliance analysis.

11.8 No guarantee of perfect availability

Unless expressly agreed in Annex A, the applicable Purchase Order or an applicable service level agreement, Vorellis does not guarantee that the Services will be available at all times, without interruption, error, delay, vulnerability, loss of performance or temporary unavailability.

The Services may be affected by maintenance operations, updates, incidents, technical limitations, third-party services, suppliers, networks, the Client’s systems, external events, or other circumstances set forth in the Contract.

11.9 No warranty regarding third-party services

Vorellis does not guarantee any third-party services, systems, accounts, applications, APIs, platforms, infrastructures, models, software, connectors, or tools that the Client chooses to connect to, authorise, or use with the Services.

Vorellis shall not be liable for the acts, omissions, errors, interruptions, changes, data losses, processing, disclosures, terms, policies or decisions of such third-party services, except to the extent that the damage results directly from a breach by Vorellis of its contractual obligations.

11.10 General Exclusions of Warranties

Unless expressly provided for in the Contract, the Services, Documentation, Generated Results, AI Features, integrations, reports, content, models, templates, recommendations, statuses, questionnaires and other elements provided by Vorellis are provided “as is” and “as available”.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis excludes any warranty, condition or representation not expressly set out in the Contract, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, freedom from error, non-infringement, accuracy, continuous availability, absolute security or a particular result.

11.11 Limits on exclusions

Nothing in the Contract limits or excludes any liability that cannot be limited or excluded under applicable law.

The exclusions set out in this section shall be interpreted to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

11.12 Remedies in the Event of Non-Conformity of the Services

If the Services are not provided in a manner substantially in accordance with the Contract, the Client must notify Vorellis in writing within a reasonable time, describing the alleged non-conformity.

The Client’s primary remedy is to allow Vorellis to remedy the non-conformity within a reasonable time, where such a remedy is possible.

If Vorellis does not remedy a material non-conformity within a reasonable period of time following written notice from the Client, the Client’s rights are those set out in the Contract, including, where applicable, the rights of termination expressly provided for in the section relating to duration, suspension and termination.

12. Limitation of Liability

12.1 General Application

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the total aggregate liability of Vorellis, its officers, directors, employees, representatives, suppliers, licensors, service providers and subcontractors in relation to the Contract, the Services, Agent AlexArc, the Generated Results, the AI Features, the Documentation, the Client Data or any Purchase Order is limited to proven direct damages suffered by the Client.

This limitation applies regardless of the nature of the claim, whether based on contract, civil liability, tort, fault, negligence, statutory duty, warranty, indemnity or any other legal basis.

12.2 Limit of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis’s total aggregate liability for all claims arising out of the Contract or in connection with the Services shall not exceed the total amount of Fees actually paid by the Client to Vorellis for the relevant Services during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

If the claim arises before twelve (12) months’ Fees have been paid, the liability cap shall correspond to the Fees actually paid by the Client to Vorellis for the relevant Services prior to the event giving rise to the claim.

The existence of multiple claims, events, incidents, invoices, Purchase Orders, Authorised Users, Modules or legal theories does not increase this limit.

12.3 Exclusion of Indirect Damages and Related Losses

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis shall not be liable for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive, exemplary, aggravated or consequential damages, nor for the following losses or damages, even if Vorellis has been advised of the possibility thereof:

(a) loss of profits, revenue, anticipated savings or business opportunities;
b) loss of goodwill, reputation, clientele or commercial value;
c) business interruption, operating loss or loss of productivity;
d) loss, corruption, alteration or unavailability of data, except to the extent expressly provided for in the Contract;
e) replacement costs, substitution costs or the cost of acquiring an equivalent service;
f) a third-party claim against the Client, except where an obligation to indemnify is expressly provided for in the Contract;
g) fines, sanctions, penalties, investigations, administrative measures or regulatory decisions directed at the Client;
h) consequences arising from a decision taken by the Client based on the Service, the Results generated or the AI Features without appropriate validation.

Without limiting sections 3.12, 3.13 and 11, Vorellis shall not be liable for any loss, damage, penalty, cost, claim or consequence arising from:

a) the inaccuracy, incompleteness, obsolescence or misclassification of the Client’s Data;
b) any decision, action, omission, priority, classification, validation or interpretation by the Client;
c) the use of the Services as a substitute for legal, professional, technical, cybersecurity, compliance or data protection advice;
d) a lack of human validation of the Results generated;
e) use of the Services in breach of the Agreement;
f) a breach by the Client of its legal, regulatory, contractual, professional or internal obligations;
g) the Client’s communication with an authority, a data subject, an employee, a supplier, a Client or a third party;
h) a failure of the Client’s systems, networks, devices, configurations, access, tools or suppliers.

12.5 Exclusions relating to third-party services

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis shall not be liable for any acts, omissions, interruptions, errors, vulnerabilities, decisions, modifications, conditions, policies, processing, disclosures, data loss or incidents caused by a third-party service connected to, authorised by, selected by or used by the Client.

This exclusion does not apply to the extent that the damage results directly from a breach by Vorellis of its contractual obligations in respect of a Sub-contractor used by Vorellis to provide the Services.

12.6 Exclusions relating to the Client’s access

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis shall not be liable for any loss, unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration, deletion, export or use of the Client’s Data arising from:

a) the sharing of Credentials;
b) a weak or compromised password;
c) a compromised Client device, network or environment;
d) poor management of authorised Users;
e) access granted by the Client to an unauthorised person or a third-party service;

12.7 Claims relating to AI Features

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, claim or consequence arising from the use of the AI Features where such loss, damage, cost, claim or consequence results from:

a) a lack of human validation;
b) the use of the generated Results as legal, professional, technical or regulatory advice;
c) incomplete, inaccurate, out-of-date or insufficient Client Data;
d) an instruction, prompt, question or configuration provided by the Client;
e) the use of the AI Features in breach of the Contract;
f) a decision taken by the Client based on an automatically generated result.

12.8 Exceptions to the limit of liability

The limitations set out in sections 12.1 to 12.7 do not limit:

(a) the Client’s obligation to pay the Fees due;
b) a Party’s liability for wilful misconduct or gross negligence, to the extent that such a limitation is prohibited by applicable law;
c) a Party’s liability for personal injury or emotional distress, to the extent that such a limitation is prohibited by applicable law;
d) injunctive relief or other legal remedies available in the event of a breach of confidentiality, intellectual property rights or the security of the Services;
e) any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

12.9 Obligations to minimise damage

Each Party shall take reasonable steps to limit any loss, damage, cost or consequence arising from an incident, breach, interruption, error, unauthorised access, dispute or other event relating to the Contract.

In particular, the Client must cease any problematic use of the Services, preserve relevant evidence, correct configurations under its control, remove unauthorised access, notify Vorellis without undue delay and cooperate with Vorellis where such cooperation is necessary to limit the impact.

12.10 Time limit for claims

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Client must provide Vorellis with written notice describing any claim relating to the Contract or the Services within a reasonable time after becoming aware of the facts giving rise to such claim.

Such notice must describe the nature of the claim, the relevant facts, the alleged damages and the remedial measures sought.

This section does not affect any mandatory limitation period provided for by applicable law.

12.11 Allocation of Risk

The Parties acknowledge that the Fees, the subscription model, the exclusions of warranties, the limitations of liability and the other terms of the Contract reflect a reasonable commercial allocation of risks between the Parties.

The Client acknowledges that Vorellis would not be able to provide the Services on the same economic terms without the limitations set out in this section.

12.12 Interpretation in accordance with applicable law

The limitations and exclusions set out in this section apply only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If any limitation or exclusion is held to be invalid, unenforceable or excessive, it shall be interpreted or reduced to have the maximum effect permitted by applicable law, without affecting the validity of the other provisions of the Agreement.

13. Term, Suspension and Termination

13.1 Term of the Agreement

This Agreement shall come into force on the earlier of the following dates:

a) the date of acceptance of the first Purchase Order;
b) the date of activation of a Subscription;
c) the date on which the Client accesses or uses the Services for the first time;
d) any other date expressly stated in a Purchase Order.

The Agreement shall remain in force for as long as a Purchase Order, a Subscription or an outstanding obligation remains in force, unless terminated in accordance with the Agreement.

13.2 Subscription Term

Each Subscription is valid for the Subscription Period specified in the applicable Purchase Order.

Unless otherwise stated in the Order Form, the Subscription commences on the date of activation of the Services by Vorellis. It remains in force for the initial period specified in the Order Form.

13.3 Renewal

The applicable Purchase Order governs the renewal of the Subscription.

Where the Order Form provides for automatic renewal, the Subscription shall be renewed for successive periods of the same duration, unless either Party gives notice of non-renewal within the time limit specified in the Order Form.

In the absence of a timeframe specified in the Order Form, the notice of non-renewal must be given at least thirty (30) days before the end of the current Subscription Period.

Failure to renew a Subscription does not release the Client from their obligation to pay the Fees due for the current Subscription Period.

13.4 Termination at the Client’s discretion

The Client may not terminate a Subscription before the end of the applicable Subscription Period, unless the Order Form expressly provides for this or unless required by applicable law.

Where the Purchase Order permits termination at will, the terms regarding notice, effective date, refunds, credits or applicable fees shall be as set out therein.

Unless otherwise stated in the Purchase Order or required by applicable law, termination at the Client’s convenience shall not entitle the Client to any refund of Fees paid. It shall not cancel Fees incurred or payable for the current Subscription Period.

13.5 Termination for Breach

A Party may terminate the Contract or the relevant Purchase Order if the other Party commits a material breach of the Contract and fails to remedy such breach within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice describing the breach.

The cure period may be shorter if the breach creates a serious risk to the security, confidentiality or availability of the Services, the Client Data, Vorellis’ intellectual property rights, other Clients, Vorellis’ suppliers or the legal compliance of the Services.

13.6 Immediate termination by Vorellis

Vorellis may suspend or terminate all or part of the Services, the Account, the Contract or a Purchase Order immediately if Vorellis reasonably believes that:

a) the Client or an Authorised User is using the Services in an illegal, fraudulent, abusive, dangerous or unauthorised manner;
b) the Client is breaching the usage restrictions set out in the Contract;
c) the Client compromises or attempts to compromise the security, integrity, availability or performance of the Services;
d) the Client infringes Vorellis’ intellectual property rights or attempts to reproduce, extract, circumvent or exploit the Services in an unauthorised manner;
e) the Services are used to process prohibited, unlawful or unauthorised data or content;
f) the continued provision of the Services exposes Vorellis, its suppliers, its Subcontractors, its other clients or a third party to a significant legal, regulatory, operational or security risk;
g) the Client fails to pay an amount due and undisputed in good faith following reasonable notice;
h) the Client makes a false or misleading statement regarding their identity, their authority, their use of the Services or their rights over the Client Data;
i) the law, an order, a competent authority or an essential supplier requires or necessitates such suspension or termination.

Where reasonably practicable, Vorellis shall notify the Client prior to any immediate termination. However, Vorellis may act without prior notice where immediate action is required to mitigate a serious risk.

13.7 Suspension of the Services

Vorellis may suspend all or part of the Services, the Account, a Module, an integration, access or an authorised User where such suspension is reasonably necessary to:

a) prevent or mitigate a security risk;
b) stop any non-compliant use;
c) protect the Client’s Data, other Clients, Vorellis’ systems or Vorellis’ suppliers;
d) investigate an incident, abuse, fraud or suspicious activity;
e) comply with the law, a court order or a legally binding request;
f) to remedy a failure to pay in accordance with the Contract;
g) prevent any damage, loss, breach of confidentiality or infringement of the rights of Vorellis or third parties.

The suspension must be proportionate to the circumstances, as far as possible.

13.8 Effect of suspension

During a suspension, the Client remains bound by the Contract and must continue to fulfil its obligations, including those regarding payment, confidentiality, security, the protection of Credentials, and proper use.

Vorellis may restore access to the Services once the cause of the suspension has been rectified to its reasonable satisfaction.

Vorellis shall not be liable for any loss, interruption, delay, damage, cost or consequence arising from a suspension carried out in accordance with the Contract.

13.9 Suspension requested by the Client

The Client may request the suspension of certain access rights, Authorised Users, Modules or features where necessary for reasons of security, administration, an employee’s departure, an internal investigation, organisational change or Account management.

Vorellis may process this request in accordance with its reasonable procedures, subject to available features, operational lead times, the Administrator’s rights and applicable security obligations.

A suspension requested by the Client does not reduce the Fees payable, unless otherwise stated in the Purchase Order or in a written agreement from Vorellis.

13.10 Termination in the event of insolvency or cessation of business

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis may terminate the Contract or a Purchase Order if the Client:

a) substantially ceases its business operations;
b) becomes insolvent;
c) makes a general assignment of its assets for the benefit of its creditors;
d) becomes subject to bankruptcy, reorganisation, liquidation, receivership or any similar proceedings;
e) is unable to pay its debts as they fall due.

This clause applies only to the extent that it is valid and enforceable under the applicable laws relating to insolvency, bankruptcy or restructuring.

13.11 Termination of a Specific Purchase Order

The termination of a Purchase Order does not automatically result in the termination of other Purchase Orders or of the Contract as a whole, unless the nature of the breach, the context or the notice of termination clearly indicates otherwise.

Vorellis may limit termination or suspension to the relevant Purchase Order, Module, Account, Authorised User, environment, integration, or element, where such limitation is reasonable in the circumstances.

13.12 Survival of Certain Obligations

The termination or expiry of the Contract, a Purchase Order or a Subscription does not release the Parties from obligations which, by their nature, are intended to survive, in particular obligations relating to:

a) the payment of Fees due;
b) confidentiality;
c) intellectual property;
d) Client Data and its deletion, return or residual retention;
e) restrictions on use;
f) limitations of liability;
g) exclusions of warranties;
h) indemnification, where applicable;
i) dispute resolution;
j) any other provision which is reasonably intended to survive the expiry of the Contract.

13.13 No effect on accrued rights

The termination or expiry of the Contract, a Purchase Order or a Subscription shall not affect any rights, remedies, liabilities or obligations arising prior to the effective date of such termination or expiry.

Amounts due prior to termination or expiry remain payable.

13.14 Notice of termination or non-renewal

Any notice of termination or non-renewal must be given in accordance with the notice provisions set out in the Contract or by such reasonable means as specified by Vorellis.

The notice must identify the Agreement, Purchase Order, Subscription or Services concerned, specify the desired effective date and, in the case of termination for breach, describe the alleged breach in sufficient detail to enable the other Party to respond to it or remedy it where the Agreement provides for a right of remedy.

14. Effects of termination or expiry

14.1 Termination of Access Rights

On the effective date of termination or expiry of a Subscription, the right of the Client and its Authorised Users to access the relevant Services shall cease, unless otherwise provided for in the Purchase Order, the Contract or a written agreement with Vorellis.

Vorellis may deactivate or restrict the Client’s access to the Services, the Account, the Modules, integrations, AI Features, reports, dashboards, exports and other features associated with the terminated or expired Subscription.

14.2 Fees due

The termination or expiry of the Contract, a Purchase Order or a Subscription does not release the Client from its obligation to pay Fees due, incurred or payable prior to the effective date of the termination or expiry.

Unless otherwise specified in the Purchase Order or required by applicable law, Fees paid or payable for the current Subscription Period remain non-refundable.

14.3 Restricted access for export purposes

Unless termination is due to gross negligence, a security risk, misuse, non-payment, breach of usage restrictions or any other situation justifying immediate deactivation, Vorellis may, at its reasonable discretion, allow the Client temporary access to certain export features after the Subscription has ended.

Such limited access, when offered, is intended solely to enable the Client to export Client Data available in the formats then supported by the Services.

Unless otherwise specified in writing by Vorellis, this post-termination access is limited to a maximum period of thirty (30) days from the date of termination or expiry.

14.4 Client’s Responsibility to Export Their Data

The Client is responsible for exporting, downloading or retaining any Client Data they wish to keep prior to the end of the Subscription or during any period of limited access granted by Vorellis.

Vorellis is not obliged to provide a custom export, special extraction, format conversion, assisted migration, data restoration or transition service, unless expressly provided for in a Purchase Order, Statement of Work or separate contract.

14.5 Deletion or deactivation of Client Data

Following the termination or expiry of the Subscription, Vorellis may delete, anonymise, deactivate, archive or render inaccessible the Client Data associated with the relevant Account, subject to:

(a) reasonable technical processing times;
b) routine backups;
c) legal, regulatory, tax, accounting, security or audit obligations;
d) obligations set out in the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information;
e) the need to retain certain information to establish, exercise or defend a legal claim;
f) retention obligations relating to contractual evidence, technical logs, invoices, payments or acceptance histories.

14.6 Residual Backups

Certain Client Data may remain temporarily in backups, logs, technical archives, disaster recovery systems, security environments or ordinary residual copies following the deletion or deactivation of the Account.

Vorellis is not obliged to delete such residual copies immediately if their immediate deletion is not technically feasible or if they are retained in accordance with its normal backup, security, business continuity, compliance or retention practices.

Any Client Data retained in such residual copies remains subject to the applicable confidentiality, security and processing obligations.

14.7 Generated Results and Exported Documents

Subject to full payment of the Fees due and compliance with the Agreement, the Client may retain and use the Generated Results, reports, documents, exports or deliverables produced by the Services prior to termination or expiry, solely for its internal commercial, professional, organisational or institutional purposes.

However, the Client may not use such Generated Results, reports, documents, exports, or deliverables to create, develop, market, or improve any product, service, model, database, tool, or offering that competes with the Services, unless Vorellis has given its prior written consent.

Vorellis reserves all rights to its methodologies, templates, structures, workflows, taxonomies, content, rules, models, interfaces and other underlying elements.

14.8 Termination of licences and authorisations

Upon termination or expiry of the relevant Contract or Subscription, all licences, access rights, authorisations to use and limited rights granted to the Client in relation to the Services shall cease, unless otherwise expressly provided for in the Contract.

The Client must cease all use of the Services, non-public Documentation, access, Credentials, integrations and Vorellis elements to which it is no longer entitled.

14.9 Professional Transition Services

Any post-termination assistance, migration, assisted export, data transfer, replacement configuration, guidance, review, analysis, extended support, or transition service constitutes a separate Professional Service, unless expressly provided for in the applicable Purchase Order.

Vorellis is not obliged to provide these services without a separate written agreement, without operational availability and without payment of the applicable Fees.

14.10 Suspension or termination due to the Client’s fault

Where termination or suspension results from non-payment, non-compliant use, a security risk, fraud, an intellectual property infringement, misuse or a material breach by the Client, Vorellis may limit, refuse or make post-termination access to the Client’s Data, subject to conditions to the extent reasonably necessary to protect the Services, Vorellis, other Clients, its suppliers or its rights.

This clause does not limit Vorellis’ mandatory obligations under applicable law or the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information.

14.11 Data necessary for contractual evidence

Notwithstanding any termination or expiry, Vorellis may retain certain information necessary to demonstrate the existence, performance, acceptance or termination of the Contract, including:

a) Purchase Orders;
b) invoices and proofs of payment;
c) electronic acceptance logs;
d) accepted contract versions;
e) administrative communications;
f) billing information;
g) security or access logs necessary for the defence of Vorellis’ rights;
h) information necessary to comply with legal, tax, accounting or regulatory obligations.

This information remains subject to the applicable confidentiality and security obligations.

14.12 Effect on Subcontractors and Third-Party Services

The termination or expiry of the Subscription may result in the deactivation of integrations, access, connections, synchronisations, APIs or third-party services associated with the Client’s Account.

The Client is responsible for revoking or, where applicable, modifying the access or authorisations they have granted to third-party services connected to the Services.

Vorellis shall not be liable for any processing, storage, deletion, export or use carried out by third-party services controlled or authorised by the Client following termination or expiry.

14.13 Survival of Obligations

The termination or expiry of the Contract, a Purchase Order or a Subscription shall not affect those provisions which, by their nature, are intended to continue to apply, in particular those relating to:

a) the payment of Fees due;
b) confidentiality;
c) intellectual property;
d) Client Data and its deletion, return or residual retention;
e) restrictions on use;
f) exclusions of warranties;
g) limitations of liability;
h) indemnification, where applicable;
i) remedies;
j) the applicable law and dispute resolution;
k) any other provision that is reasonably intended to survive the termination of the Contract.

14.14 No liability for compliant deletion

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Vorellis shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost, claim or consequence arising from the deletion, deactivation, anonymisation, archiving or inaccessibility of the Client Data carried out in accordance with the Contract, the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information (including its annex on security measures), the Purchase Order or applicable policies.

This clause applies in particular where the Client fails to export its Client Data before the end of the Subscription or during the period of limited access granted by Vorellis.

15. Changes to the Services and Contractual Documents

15.1 General Development of the Services

Vorellis may modify, correct, update, improve, optimise, or develop the Services to enhance their security, reliability, performance, user experience, compliance, maintenance, interoperability, or functional value.

Such modifications may, in particular, relate to:

a) the user interface;
b) the Modules;
c) workflows;
d) questionnaires;
e) reports;
f) AI features;
g) integrations;
h) performance;
i) security;
j) documentation;
k) technical configurations;
l) support or administration mechanisms.

15.2 Changes with no material impact

Vorellis may make changes to the Services that do not materially reduce the essential functionalities to which the Client is entitled under the applicable Purchase Order.

Such changes may be made without the Client’s further consent, provided that they are consistent with the Contract and do not substantially alter the essential commercial commitments of the current Purchase Order.

15.3 Material changes to the Services

During a current Subscription Period, Vorellis shall use reasonable efforts to avoid removing or substantially reducing any essential functionality expressly included in the applicable Purchase Order.

However, Vorellis may modify, suspend, replace or remove a feature where reasonably necessary, in particular for reasons of security, compliance, applicable law, reliance on a third-party supplier, end-of-life of technology, technical stability, performance, prevention of abuse or normal product evolution.

Where reasonably possible, Vorellis shall notify the Client of any material change likely to affect the Client’s normal use of the Services.

15.4 Changes required for security, compliance or emergency reasons

Vorellis may, without prior notice, make an immediate change to the Services, access, integrations, AI Features, Modules, configurations or Documentation where such a change is necessary to:

(a) to address a vulnerability;
b) prevent or limit a security incident;
c) comply with a law, order or legally binding request;
d) protect the Client’s Data, other Clients, Vorellis, its suppliers or its Subcontractors;
e) prevent fraud, abuse or unauthorised use;
f) to rectify a critical fault;
g) maintain the stability, availability or integrity of the Services.

In such cases, Vorellis may notify the Client after the change where reasonable and appropriate.

15.5 Amendments to Contractual Documents

Vorellis may periodically update this Agreement, Appendix A, the Addendum relating to the processing of personal data, including its appendices relating to security measures and sub-processors, the applicable policies and any other document incorporated by reference.

Any amendment to these documents must be identified by a new version number, an effective date or another reasonable means of determining the applicable version.

Amendments shall not apply retroactively to a Subscription Period already in progress, unless:

a) the Client expressly accepts them;
b) they are required by applicable law;
c) they are necessary for reasons of security, compliance, data protection, the operation of the Services or the prevention of abuse;
d) they are favourable to the Client or do not have a material adverse effect on their rights;
e) the Purchase Order or the relevant document expressly provides for a different rule.

15.6 Notice of amendment

Where Vorellis makes a material amendment to the contractual documents that adversely affects the Client’s rights or obligations, Vorellis shall give the Client reasonable notice prior to the amendment coming into effect, except in cases of emergency, security, legal compliance or an essential requirement imposed by a third party.

The notice may be sent by email, via the application, on a portal, on a dedicated contractual page, in the Documentation or by any other reasonable means.

The notice may include a summary of the amendment, the updated version of the document, the effective date and the documents concerned.

15.7 Effective Date of Amendments

Unless otherwise stated in the notice of amendment or in the relevant document, a material amendment to the contractual documents shall take effect on the earlier of the following dates:

a) on the date of the Client’s express acceptance;
b) upon renewal of the Subscription;
c) on the date specified in the notice of amendment;
d) on the date on which the Client continues to use the Services after the amendment comes into effect, provided that the Client has been reasonably notified of the amendment.

Amendments necessary for reasons of security, compliance, applicable law, prevention of misuse or protection of the Services may take effect immediately.

15.8 Amendments to the Purchase Order

A Purchase Order may only be amended by a written document accepted by Vorellis and the Client, or by an electronic amendment mechanism recognised by Vorellis.

Any changes to the plan, Fees, Modules, Usage Limits, Subscription Period, support level or the Client’s specific terms must be reflected in an amended Purchase Order, a new Purchase Order, a written confirmation or an electronic acceptance mechanism approved by Vorellis.

No commercial communication, demonstration, presentation, informal proposal, unauthorised email or statement by a partner shall amend a Purchase Order, unless confirmed in writing by Vorellis.

15.9 Changes to Fees

Vorellis may amend the Fees applicable to the Services for a renewal period, a new Purchase Order, an additional module, an exceedance of Usage Limits or an additional service.

Unless otherwise stated in the Purchase Order, a change to the Subscription Fees shall not apply to the current Subscription Period, unless the Client accepts the change, adds Services, exceeds the Usage Limits or requests an upgrade.

Where the Subscription renews automatically, Vorellis must notify the Client of a material increase in Fees within a reasonable time prior to the renewal, unless the increase results from additional usage, applicable taxes or fees already provided for in the Purchase Order.

15.10 Amendments to the Addendum relating to the processing of personal data

Any amendments to the Addendum on the Processing of Personal Data are governed by the terms set out in this Addendum.

Vorellis may amend this Addendum where necessary to reflect changes to applicable laws, the Services, Sub-processors, security measures, transfers, processing instructions or compliance requirements.

Where the amendment materially affects the Client’s rights or obligations regarding the processing of personal information, Vorellis shall provide reasonable notice to the Client, except in cases of emergency, legal requirement or security necessity.

15.11 Changes to security measures

Vorellis may update the security measures described in the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information, or in its annex relating to security measures, to reflect changes in its technical, organisational, and administrative measures.

Vorellis shall not materially reduce the overall level of security described in the Addendum on the Processing of Personal Information or in its annex on security measures during a current Subscription Period, unless such reduction is offset by reasonably equivalent measures or is necessitated by technical, legal, security or operational reasons.

15.12 Amendments to the List of Sub-processors

Vorellis may update the List of Sub-processors in accordance with the terms set out in the Addendum on the Processing of Personal Information.

Where required by the Contract, the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information or by applicable law, Vorellis shall notify the Client of the addition or replacement of a Sub-processor who processes personal information on behalf of the Client.

The rights to object or terminate in relation to the addition or replacement of a Sub-processor, where applicable, are those set out in the Addendum on the Processing of Personal Information.

15.13 Rejection of a Material Change

If the Client refuses a material amendment applicable to a future period, their primary remedy is not to renew the Subscription or to cease using the Services at the end of the current Subscription Period, unless the Contract, the Purchase Order or applicable law provides for another remedy.

If a material change is to apply during a current Subscription Period and significantly adversely affects the Client’s rights, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith to determine a reasonable solution, which may include a mitigation measure, a transition, an amendment to the Purchase Order or, where applicable, a termination of the relevant Purchase Order in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

15.14 Applicable Versions and Archiving

Vorellis may retain a copy or history of the applicable versions of the Agreement, Purchase Orders, Annex A, the Addendum relating to the processing of personal data, including its annexes relating to security measures and sub-processors, and other incorporated documents.

The versions applicable to a Client may be determined by reference to the Purchase Order, the date of acceptance, the date of renewal, the version indicated in the document, the electronic acceptance logs or the contractual records retained by Vorellis.

15.15 Administrative Corrections

Vorellis may correct any typographical, administrative, formatting, numbering, reference, link or layout error in a contractual document, provided that such correction does not substantially alter the rights or obligations of the Parties.

15.16 No unauthorised modifications

No employee, representative, partner, affiliate, reseller, consultant, integrator, service provider or other third party is authorised to amend the Contract, a Purchase Order or an incorporated document, unless they have written authorisation from Vorellis or the amendment is accepted through a contractual mechanism approved by Vorellis.

No oral statement, sales presentation, demonstration, marketing document, support response or informal communication shall amend the Agreement, unless such amendment is expressly confirmed in writing by Vorellis in an applicable contractual document.

16. Governing Law, Jurisdiction and Dispute Resolution

16.1 Governing Law

The Agreement, any Purchase Order, the Services and any dispute arising out of or in connection therewith shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec and the applicable federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict of laws principles that might result in the application of the laws of another jurisdiction.

16.2 Exclusive Jurisdiction

Subject to the urgent remedies provided for in the Contract and the mandatory provisions of applicable law, the Parties agree that any dispute, remedy, claim, proceeding or action arising out of the Contract, a Purchase Order, the Services, Agent AlexArc, the Client Data, the generated Results or the contractual relationship between the Parties shall be submitted exclusively to the competent courts of Quebec, sitting in the judicial district of Montreal, Quebec, Canada.

Each Party irrevocably accepts the jurisdiction of these courts and waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any objection based on venue, ‘forum non conveniens’ or the alleged unsuitability of these courts.

16.3 Attempt at prior settlement

Before commencing legal proceedings, except in cases of urgency or where immediate relief is reasonably necessary, the Party wishing to raise a dispute must send written notice to the other Party reasonably describing:

(a) the nature of the dispute;
b) the relevant facts;
c) the relevant contractual provisions, where known;
d) the amounts claimed, if any;
e) the remedial action or desired outcome.

The Parties must then attempt to resolve the dispute in good faith through discussions between their authorised representatives within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice, unless the Parties agree on a different period.

16.4 Escalation of commercial disputes

If the dispute is not resolved within the time limit set out in section 16.3, either Party may request that the dispute be referred to a director, executive officer or decision-making representative of the other Party.

The designated representatives shall endeavour to resolve the dispute in good faith within a reasonable period of time.

This step does not limit a Party’s right to bring legal proceedings where necessary to preserve its rights, avoid serious harm or meet an applicable deadline.

16.5 Voluntary mediation

The Parties may agree to submit a dispute to voluntary mediation before commencing or continuing legal proceedings.

Mediation is mandatory only if the Parties consent to it in writing after the dispute has arisen, or if required by applicable law or a rule of procedure.

Unless otherwise agreed, each Party shall bear its own costs of participating in the mediation, and the mediator’s fees shall be shared equally.

16.6 Urgent remedies and injunctive relief

Notwithstanding sections 16.3 to 16.5, a Party may immediately apply for a protective order, an injunction, a conservatory measure, a confidentiality order, a measure to protect intellectual property rights, Client Data, personal information, confidential information, trade secrets, the security of the Services or any other right requiring urgent intervention.

Such an application may be made to the competent courts of Quebec or to any other competent court where this is reasonably necessary to ensure the measure is effective.

16.7 Recovery of Outstanding Fees

Vorellis may take any reasonable steps to recover any Fees due, interest, recovery costs and other amounts payable under the Contract.

The pre-litigation procedures set out in sections 16.3 to 16.5 shall not apply where the claim relates primarily to the recovery of an amount due and undisputed in good faith.

16.8 No Restriction on Regulatory Obligations

Nothing in this section shall prevent a Party from responding to a request, investigation, order, inspection, audit or legally binding requirement issued by a competent governmental, judicial, administrative or regulatory authority.

The Client remains responsible for its own communications and obligations towards authorities, data subjects, employees, Clients, suppliers, auditors or any other third party, unless otherwise stipulated in a separate engagement letter.

16.9 Time limits and preservation of rights

A Party’s participation in a discussion, escalation or mediation shall not constitute a waiver of its rights, remedies, defences or limitation periods, unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Each Party remains responsible for taking the necessary steps to preserve its rights within the applicable time limits.

16.10 Continued Performance of Obligations

During any dispute, the Parties must continue to perform their uncontested obligations in good faith, including obligations regarding the payment of uncontested amounts, confidentiality, security, the protection of Client Data, and the proper use of the Services.

Vorellis may, however, suspend or terminate the Services in accordance with the Contract where the conditions for suspension or termination are met.

The use of Subcontractors processing personal information on behalf of the Client is governed by the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information, including the List of Subcontractors.

17.6 Relationship between the Parties

The Parties are independent contractors.

Nothing in the Contract creates a partnership, joint venture, general agency, employment relationship, fiduciary relationship, agency, franchise, partnership or exclusive representation between the Parties.

Neither Party is authorised to bind the other Party, to enter into a contract on its behalf or to make a statement binding on the other Party, unless expressly authorised in writing.

17.7 Force Majeure

Neither Party shall be liable for any delay or failure to perform its obligations, other than payment obligations, where such delay or failure results from an event reasonably beyond its control, including:

Vorellis may suspend or refuse the Services where necessary to comply with any applicable legal or regulatory obligation.

17.10 Severability

If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, void, unenforceable or unenforceable, it shall be interpreted, limited or modified to the extent necessary to render it valid and enforceable, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If such interpretation, limitation or modification is not possible, the provision in question shall be deemed to have been severed, without affecting the validity of the other provisions of the Contract.

17.11 Waiver

The fact that a Party does not immediately exercise a right, remedy or power provided for in the Contract shall not constitute a waiver of that right, remedy or power.

Any waiver must be in writing and shall apply only to the specific case to which it relates.

No waiver of a breach shall constitute a waiver of any future breach or of any other breach.

17.12 Entire Agreement

The Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties in relation to the Services. It supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreement, proposal, statement, discussion, presentation, demonstration, quotation, communication or arrangement relating to the same subject matter, except to the extent that a document is expressly incorporated by reference.

No terms and conditions of purchase, purchase order from the Client, procurement policy, supplier portal, administrative document or unilateral condition of the Client shall amend the Agreement, even if Vorellis receives, accepts, processes or executes a document from the Client, unless expressly accepted in writing by Vorellis.

17.13 Priority of Documents

The order of priority of contractual documents is as set out in section 1.7.

In the event of any conflict between a contractual document and a marketing page, a demonstration, a sales presentation, non-contractual documentation or an informal communication, the contractual documents shall prevail.

17.14 Electronic signature and electronic acceptance

The Contract, a Purchase Order or any other contractual document may be accepted or signed electronically.

An electronic signature, click-through acceptance, in-app acceptance, portal acceptance, electronic confirmation or any other acceptance mechanism recognised by Vorellis shall have the same effect as a handwritten signature, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Vorellis may retain the logs, metadata, versions, proofs of acceptance, IP addresses, identifiers, dates, times and electronic copies necessary to demonstrate the acceptance and integrity of the contractual documents.

17.15 Copies and Electronic Documents

The Contract and Purchase Orders may be drawn up in one or more electronic or physical copies.

Each copy shall be deemed to be an original, and all copies together shall constitute a single document.

17.16 Interpretation

Headings and subheadings are inserted solely for ease of reference and shall not affect the interpretation of the Contract.

Terms in the singular include the plural and vice versa, where the context permits.

The words “including”, “such as”, “notwithstanding” or similar expressions are deemed to mean “including, without limitation”.

The Contract shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with its commercial purpose, namely the provision of SaaS Services to a business Client.

17.17 Language

The language of the Contract is governed by section 1.8.

Where the Parties validly agree to use an English or bilingual version of the Agreement, the version that prevails is that specified in the Purchase Order or the relevant document.

17.18 No Third-Party Beneficiaries

Unless expressly stated otherwise in the Contract, no provision of the Contract confers any right, remedy or benefit on any third party.

The rights and remedies provided for in the Contract belong exclusively to the Parties and their authorised successors or assigns.

17.19 Cumulative remedies

Unless expressly provided otherwise, the rights and remedies provided for in the Contract are cumulative and are in addition to the rights and remedies available under applicable law.

The exercise of one remedy shall not preclude the exercise of another, unless they are incompatible or otherwise provided.

Agent AlexArc operates in particular based on the Client’s Data, responses entered by the Client, uploaded documents, selected configurations, information on the Client’s activities, systems, suppliers, incidents, logs, metrics, tasks, or other relevant elements.

Agent AlexArc may provide jurisdiction packs, reference frameworks, structured content, questionnaires, templates, mappings, requirements or controls associated with certain jurisdictions, laws, standards, reference frameworks or compliance areas.

These jurisdictional packs are used to structure the Client’s analysis and documentation. They do not constitute a legal opinion, an exhaustive interpretation of applicable law, a certification of compliance, or a guarantee that the Client complies with the relevant requirements.

2.6 Results-based approach

Agent AlexArc may produce, provide or display generated results, including reports, analyses, statuses, classifications, scores, recommendations, tasks, questionnaires, documents, summaries or other outputs.

Agent AlexArc may include an Evidence Inventory Module that enables the Client to identify, upload, classify, link to, or track certain documents, files, policies, procedures, reports, screenshots, certificates, or other items of evidence.

The existence of an item in the evidence inventory does not imply that such an item is legally valid, sufficient, complete, up to date or compliant. The Client remains responsible for validating the relevance, quality, sufficiency and currency of each piece of evidence.

3.5 Suppliers and Service Providers Module

Agent AlexArc may include a Module relating to the Client’s suppliers, service providers, subcontractors or other third parties.

The Client remains responsible for determining its applicable obligations, verifying the identity of the data subject, complying with statutory time limits, preparing appropriate responses and retaining the necessary evidence.

These elements are intended to help the Client track certain tasks, discrepancies, risks, evidence, records, incidents, suppliers, requests, tasks or other elements available in Agent AlexArc.

3.13 Document Generation

Agent AlexArc may include tools for generating, preparing or exporting documents, templates, reports, registers, policies, procedures, forms, notices, summaries or other content.

The generated documents are provided as tools for assistance and structuring. They must be reviewed, adapted, completed and approved by the Client prior to use.

No document generated by Agent AlexArc constitutes, in itself, a validated legal document, a legal opinion, a certificate of compliance or sufficient proof of compliance.

Access to a jurisdiction pack may be limited depending on the Subscription plan, the activated Modules, the Usage Limits, the Account configuration, the relevant jurisdiction, the available language, the applicable Documentation or the available features.

4.3 Nature of compliance content

The compliance content available in Agent AlexArc is provided as tools for assistance, structuring, documentation and analysis support.

It does not constitute a legal opinion, legal advice, an exhaustive interpretation of applicable law, a certification, an attestation, regulatory validation, an audit or a guarantee of compliance.

The Client remains responsible for determining the laws, regulations, standards, contractual requirements, internal policies, sector-specific obligations and regulatory expectations applicable to its activities.

4.4 Evolving content

Jurisdictional packs and compliance content may be modified, updated, corrected, expanded, replaced or removed by Vorellis in accordance with the Contract.

This content may be subject to change, in particular due to legislative, regulatory, administrative, case-law, doctrinal, normative, operational, or technical changes, or to improve the quality, consistency, security, user experience, or functional value of Agent AlexArc.

Vorellis does not guarantee that all legislative, regulatory, normative or administrative changes will be immediately incorporated into Agent AlexArc.

4.5 Non-exhaustiveness

A jurisdiction pack may cover certain topics, requirements, controls, issues, registers, tasks, evidence or documents deemed relevant by Vorellis for the operation of Agent AlexArc.

However, a jurisdiction pack must not be interpreted as covering all legal, regulatory, contractual, sector-specific, professional or organisational obligations applicable to the Client.

The Client remains responsible for supplementing the analysis where its context, sector of activity, data flows, suppliers, systems, international activities, contractual commitments or specific risks require further analysis.

4.6 Application to a specific organisation or activity

Jurisdictional packs are provided based on structured content and general parameters. Their relevance depends on the information provided by the Client, the responses entered, the activated Modules, the Client’s Data, the Account configurations and the actual context of the Client’s activities.

Vorellis does not guarantee that a jurisdiction pack is fully suited to a Client’s specific organisation, activity, sector, supplier, system, incident, transfer, project, contract, category of personal information or use case.

4.7 Validation by the Client

The Client must review, validate, and approve any analysis, recommendation, task, status, classification, report, document, register, or Result generated from a jurisdiction pack before relying on or using it.

The Client must, where necessary, seek the advice of its legal, professional, technical, security, compliance or data protection advisers before making a decision based on a jurisdiction pack or compliance content.

4.8 Multi-jurisdictional packs

Agent AlexArc may allow the use of multiple jurisdiction packs for the same Client, organisation, activity, supplier, project or register.

When multiple jurisdiction packs are used, the Results generated may reflect requirements, controls, questions, or recommendations arising from different jurisdictions, laws, standards, or frameworks.

The Client remains responsible for determining the jurisdictions that are actually applicable, resolving conflicts between requirements, prioritising relevant obligations and validating the measures to be implemented.

4.9 Educational content and help texts

Agent AlexArc may include educational content, help texts, explanations, examples, definitions, notes, instructions, micro-content, general recommendations or training materials related to a jurisdiction pack or a Module.

This content is intended to help authorised Users understand certain issues, fields, tasks, registers or generated Results.

It does not constitute comprehensive training, professional advice, legal advice or a personalised assessment of the Client’s situation.

4.10 Mappings, checks and statuses

Agent AlexArc may use mappings, controls, statuses, correspondence rules, priority levels, deviation categories, indicators, scores or processing logic to structure certain generated Results.

These elements are classification and decision-support tools. They must not be interpreted as definitive conclusions regarding the Client’s compliance, maturity, adequacy of measures or actual level of risk.

The Client remains responsible for validating the relevance of the statuses, scores, priorities, classifications and recommendations displayed in Agent AlexArc.

4.11 Available languages

Jurisdictional packs and compliance content may be available in one or more languages, depending on the content developed, the jurisdictions covered, the Modules activated and the features available.

In the event of a discrepancy between two language versions of the same content, the Client must verify the applicable version before relying on it, particularly where the language version used is not the official language of the relevant legislative, regulatory, normative or contractual text.

4.12 No attorney-client relationship

The provision of a jurisdiction pack, compliance content, questionnaire, mapping, recommendation, report, template or generated Result does not create any attorney-client, adviser-client, auditor-client, DPO-client, RPRP-client or consultant-client relationship between Vorellis and the Client.

Any separate professional relationship must be expressly provided for in a Purchase Order, a Statement of Work or a separate contract.

5. Deliverables, reports, status updates and recommendations

5.1 Purpose of Generated Results

Agent AlexArc may produce, propose, display or export Generated Results, including reports, summaries, analyses, statuses, scores, classifications, recommendations, tasks, questionnaires, registers, documents, alerts, priorities or other outputs related to the activated Modules.

Generated Results are intended to assist the Client in structuring, documenting, prioritising, monitoring and managing certain elements relating to compliance, governance, risk management, cybersecurity and the protection of personal information.

5.2 Dependence on Client Data

The generated Results depend in particular on:

a) the Client’s Data;

b) the responses entered by the Client or its authorised Users;

c) the documents uploaded;

d) the Account settings;

e) the activated Modules;

(f) the applicable jurisdiction packages;

g) usage limits;

h) the available settings;

i) the rules, mappings, templates or content used by Agent AlexArc;

j) the AI features used, where applicable.

Incomplete, inaccurate, out-of-date, contradictory, mislabelled or insufficient Client Data may produce incomplete, inaccurate, irrelevant or unsuitable generated Results.

5.3 No definitive conclusion

The Generated Results are provided as tools to assist and aid decision-making.

They do not constitute a definitive conclusion, a legal opinion, legal advice, professional validation, an audit, certification, attestation, regulatory approval or a guarantee of compliance.

The Client remains responsible for determining whether a generated Result is accurate, complete, relevant, sufficient, up to date and appropriate to their context.

5.4 Mandatory validation by the Client

The Client must review, validate and approve the generated Results before:

a) relying on them;

b) using them for decision-making purposes;

c) passing them on to a third party;

d) filing them in an internal or external file;

e) using them in communications with an authority;

f) to use them in communications with a data subject, a Client, a supplier, an employee or a partner;

g) to use them as evidence of compliance, governance, cybersecurity, risk management or personal data protection.

5.5 Reports and dashboards

Agent AlexArc can generate or display reports, dashboards, consolidated views, indicators, visualisations, summaries or exports.

These elements are intended to facilitate the understanding and monitoring of certain information available in Agent AlexArc.

They may be incomplete or inaccurate if the underlying information is incomplete, inaccurate, out of date, poorly structured, poorly labelled or not validated by the Client.

5.6 Statuses, scores and classifications

Agent AlexArc may display statuses, scores, priority levels, deviation categories, progress indicators, risk levels, maturity levels, completeness levels or other classifications.

These elements are provided for the purposes of structuring, monitoring and prioritisation.

They must not be interpreted as a definitive measure of compliance, actual risk, organisational maturity, adequacy of controls, legal validity or regulatory compliance.

The Client remains responsible for interpreting, validating and, where necessary, correcting these statuses, scores, priorities or classifications.

5.7 Recommendations and tasks

Agent AlexArc may propose or generate recommendations, tasks, remedial actions, follow-ups, reminders, priorities, or measures to be considered.

These recommendations and tasks are provided as management and monitoring tools. They do not guarantee that the proposed actions are mandatory, sufficient, complete, legally required, proportionate or appropriate to all of the Client’s circumstances.

The Client remains responsible for deciding whether to implement, modify, postpone, ignore or reject a recommendation, task or measure proposed by Agent AlexArc.

5.8 Documents generated or prepared

Agent AlexArc may assist in generating, preparing, structuring or exporting documents, including policies, procedures, registers, reports, forms, notices, tables, summaries, action plans or other documentary content.

These documents are provided as templates, drafts, support tools, or content to be completed.

They must be reviewed, adapted, completed and approved by the Client before use.

No document generated or prepared by Agent AlexArc constitutes, in itself, a final legal document, sufficient proof of compliance, a legal opinion, a certification or a professional validation.

5.9 External use of the generated Results

The Client may use the Generated Results for its internal commercial, professional, organisational or institutional purposes, subject to the Contract, the applicable Purchase Order and this Annex A.

Before any external communication of a Generated Result, the Client must ensure that such Result is accurate, complete, appropriate, authorised and suitable for the relevant recipient.

The Client remains responsible for any communication of Generated Results to an authority, auditor, insurer, client, supplier, employee, data subject or any other third party.

5.10 Generated Results and the Client’s Legal Obligations

Generated Results do not replace the Client’s legal, regulatory, contractual, professional, sector-specific or internal obligations.

The Client remains responsible in particular for:

a) determining its applicable obligations;

b) complying with applicable deadlines;

c) retaining the required evidence;

d) documenting its decisions;

e) communicating with the relevant authorities or persons where required;

f) to obtain the necessary internal approvals;

g) have the results validated by their professional advisers, where applicable.

5.11 Modifications to the generated results

The Client may modify, supplement, adapt or correct the Generated Results for its internal purposes, subject to the Contract and Vorellis’ intellectual property rights in the underlying elements of Agent AlexArc.

The Client remains responsible for any modification, adaptation, interpretation, communication or use of the Generated Results after their production, export or modification.

5.12 Retention and history of generated results

Agent AlexArc may retain certain generated results, histories, versions, logs, exports, statuses, or usage records, depending on available features, the Account configuration, the Usage Limits, and applicable retention rules.

Vorellis does not guarantee that all Generated Results will be retained indefinitely, retrievable at any time, exportable in all formats, or available after the termination or expiry of the Subscription.

The Client remains responsible for exporting, backing up or retaining any Generated Results they wish to keep outside of Agent AlexArc.

5.13 Similar Generated Results

The Client acknowledges that certain Generated Results may be similar or identical to results, templates, recommendations, formulations, reports, tasks, classifications or documents produced for other Clients, particularly where standard content, templates, jurisdiction packs, rules, taxonomies, questions or similar AI Features are used.

Nothing in this Annex A shall limit Vorellis’ right to provide other clients with similar features, templates, reports, content, recommendations, documents, structures, taxonomies, workflows or results, subject to the confidentiality obligations applicable to the Client’s Data.

5.14 No Competitive Use

The Client may not use the generated Results, reports, documents, classifications, mappings, questionnaires, statuses, models, recommendations or other outputs from Agent AlexArc to create, train, feed, improve, market or offer a product, service, model, database, tool, repository or offering that competes with the Services, unless Vorellis has given its prior written consent.

This restriction does not limit the Client’s normal use of the Generated Results for internal commercial, professional, organisational or institutional purposes, in accordance with the Contract.

6. AI Features

6.1 Purpose of AI Features

Agent AlexArc may include AI Features designed to assist the Client with certain tasks involving structuring, analysis, summarisation, classification, reformulation, document generation, prioritisation, comparison or decision support.

The AI Features are provided as support tools. They do not replace human validation, professional judgement, legal advice, compliance analysis, security analysis, auditing, internal approval or the Client’s final decision.

6.2 Available AI Features

Depending on the Subscription plan, the activated Modules, the applicable jurisdiction packs, the Usage Limits and the features then available, the AI Features may, in particular, assist the Client in:

a) summarise certain information entered or uploaded into Agent AlexArc;

b) rephrase responses, findings, descriptions, tasks or texts;

c) suggest classifications, statuses, priorities, or items to be completed;

d) generate draft reports, summaries, policies, procedures, notices, registers or other documents;

h) support the analysis of certain discrepancies or compliance issues;

i) facilitate navigation, searching or understanding of certain content available on Agent AlexArc.

Vorellis may add, modify, limit, suspend or remove certain AI Features in accordance with the Contract.

6.3 Reliance on Client Data and Instructions

The Results generated by the AI Features depend in particular on the Client Data, prompts, instructions, questions, documents, responses, configurations, settings, activated Modules, applicable jurisdiction packs and technical limitations specific to the Services.

Incomplete, inaccurate, ambiguous, out-of-date, contradictory or poorly qualified information may produce incomplete, inaccurate, irrelevant or unsuitable Results.

The Client remains responsible for formulating appropriate instructions, providing accurate information and validating the results obtained.

6.4 Limitations inherent in AI Features

The AI Features may produce results that are incomplete, inaccurate, ambiguous, out of date, irrelevant, overly general, insufficiently contextualised, or require human correction.

They may also propose formulations, classifications, tasks, summaries, recommendations or documents that appear plausible but are not accurate, complete, sufficient or suited to the Client’s actual context.

The Client must not assume that a result generated by an AI Feature is accurate, compliant, legally valid, sufficient or complete.

6.5 Mandatory human validation

The Client must review, validate and approve any Result generated by an AI Feature before relying on it, using it, transmitting it to a third party, incorporating it into a register, filing it in a dossier, communicating it to an authority or making a decision based on it.

This validation must be carried out by a competent person, depending on the nature of the result in question, in particular by a person responsible for compliance, data protection, cybersecurity, legal affairs, operations, human resources, IT or any other relevant function within the Client’s organisation.

6.6 No automated legal or professional advice

The AI Features do not provide legal advice, legal opinions, professional advice, audits, certifications, attestations, regulatory validation or professional decisions.

The Client must not use an Output generated by an AI Feature as a substitute for the advice of its legal, professional, technical, security, compliance or data protection advisers.

Where the context warrants, the Client must obtain separate professional advice before making a decision or acting based on a generated Result.

6.7 Automated decisions and significant effects

The Client must not use the AI Features to make a decision, without appropriate human intervention, that has a legal, contractual, disciplinary, financial, regulatory, operational, or otherwise significant effect on an individual or an organisation.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Client must not rely solely on the AI Features to:

a) decide whether an incident should be reported;

b) respond to a request for access, rectification, erasure, portability or any other request from a data subject;

c) conclude that a processing activity is compliant;

d) conclude that a supplier is acceptable or unacceptable;

e) conclude that a DPIA is complete or sufficient;

f) conclude that a document is legally valid;

g) conclude that a security measure is sufficient;

h) decide an employee, a candidate, a Client, a supplier or any other data subject.

6.8 Data submitted to the AI Features

The Client remains responsible for the Client Data, including prompts, files, documents, responses, information or content submitted to the AI Features.

The Client must avoid submitting to the AI Features any sensitive personal data, highly confidential information, trade secrets, medical information, information relating to minors, usernames, passwords, access keys, sensitive financial data, or other high-risk information, unless this is necessary, proportionate, authorised, and in accordance with the Contract.

Where certain sensitive information is necessary for the use of an AI Feature, the Client remains responsible for ensuring that such use complies with its legal, regulatory, contractual and internal obligations.

6.9 Prohibited use of AI Features

The Client must not use the AI Features to:

a) produce, facilitate or conceal any illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, abusive or harmful activity;

b) generate automated legal advice without human validation;

c) generate a compliance conclusion without appropriate validation;

d) circumvent the rules of use, security, confidentiality, access control or Usage Limits;

e) extract, reproduce, reconstruct, test or circumvent the prompts, models, internal rules, logic, systems or mechanisms used by Vorellis;

f) train, improve, feed, compare or develop a competing product, service, model, database, repository or tool;

g) produce content that is defamatory, discriminatory, harassing, misleading, fraudulent, unlawful or infringes the rights of a third party;

h) generate or facilitate an automated decision that is prohibited or unauthorised under applicable law;

i) submit data that the Client is not entitled to use, process or disclose within the Services.

6.10 Suppliers, models and AI infrastructure

Vorellis may use third-party models, APIs, suppliers, infrastructure, tools or services to provide certain AI Features.

Where such third-party providers or services process Client Data or personal information on the Client’s behalf, the Agreement governs their use, the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information, the applicable security measures and, where applicable, the List of Sub-processors.

The availability, performance, limitations, capabilities or behaviour of certain AI Features may depend on third-party providers, models, APIs or infrastructure.

6.11 Training of AI models

Unless expressly authorised by the Client or otherwise stated in the Purchase Order, Vorellis does not use Client Data to train general artificial intelligence models intended for other clients.

Vorellis may, however, use technical, statistical, aggregated, de-identified, or usage data, in accordance with the Contract, to operate, secure, maintain, measure, correct, and improve the Services.

6.12 Logs, Monitoring and Improvement

Vorellis may log certain uses of the AI Features to provide, secure, maintain, monitor, diagnose, correct, improve, or administer the Services.

These logs may include, in particular, usage metadata, technical information, timestamps, user identifiers, modules used, query types, volumes, errors, limits reached or other information necessary for the operation of the Services.

Where such logs contain Client Data or personal information, they are processed in accordance with the Agreement and, where applicable, the Addendum relating to the processing of personal information.

6.13 AI Usage Limits

The AI Features may be subject to specific usage limits, including the number of requests, content volume, documents processed, tokens, exports, API calls, Modules, users, organisations, jurisdiction packs, or periods of use.

Vorellis may limit, throttle, suspend, or temporarily restrict certain AI Features where necessary to ensure security, stability, availability, performance, prevent abuse, or comply with applicable Usage Limits.

Additional charges may apply where the Client exceeds the AI Usage Limits set out in the applicable Purchase Order.

6.14 Similar AI Results

The Client acknowledges that certain AI Features may produce similar or identical results for different Clients, particularly where similar questions, templates, jurisdiction packs, prompts, structures, requirements or input data are used.

Nothing in this Annex A shall prevent Vorellis from providing other clients with similar features, models, formulations, structures, recommendations, reports, tasks, classifications or generated Results, subject to the confidentiality obligations applicable to the Client’s Data.

6.15 Suspension or Restriction of AI Features

Vorellis may suspend, limit, disable or restrict access to certain AI Features where it reasonably believes that their use:

a) breaches the Agreement;

b) poses a risk to security, confidentiality, misuse or non-compliance;

c) exceeds the applicable Usage Limits;

d) compromises the stability or availability of the Services;

e) contravenes the terms and conditions of a third-party supplier;

f) exposes Vorellis, the Client, another Client, a supplier or a third party to a legal, regulatory, technical or operational risk.

To the extent reasonably practicable, Vorellis shall limit the suspension or restriction to the relevant AI Functionality, Account, usage, Module, user or content.

7. Sessions, questionnaires and guided journeys

7.1 Purpose of the Sessions Module

Agent AlexArc may include a Sessions Module that enables the Client to present to its authorised Users guided tours, questionnaires, steps, micro-tasks, collaborative workflows, or interactive experiences aimed at collecting, structuring, completing, or validating certain information.

Sessions may, in particular, be used to support information gathering, the documentation of internal practices, the classification of situations, the preparation of records, task management, incident documentation, the processing of requests from data subjects, the compilation of evidence, or any other process available in Agent AlexArc.

7.2 Access to Sessions

Access to the Sessions Module depends on the applicable Purchase Order, Subscription plan, activated Modules, usage limits, applicable jurisdictional packs, Account configuration and available features.

Vorellis may restrict certain Sessions to authorised roles, profiles, Modules, organisations, jurisdictional packs, workflows, or User categories.

7.3 Questions, answers, and help texts

Sessions may contain questions, answer options, free-text fields, drop-down lists, validations, help texts, examples, instructions, thresholds, conditional rules, dependencies or educational content.

These elements are intended to assist authorised Users in entering and classifying certain information.

They do not guarantee that the answers provided by the Client or its Authorised Users are accurate, complete, sufficient, relevant, compliant or appropriate to the Client’s actual context.

7.4 Client Responses and Data

Responses, files, comments, choices, validations, documents, information or content entered, uploaded or produced during a Session constitute Client Data.

The Client remains responsible for the accuracy, quality, completeness, legality, relevance and up-to-date nature of the information entered or uploaded during Sessions.

Vorellis is not required to verify the responses or documents provided in a Session, unless a separate mandate expressly provides for this.

7.5 Effects of Sessions on Records, Tasks, and Generated Results

The information entered in a Session may, depending on the available features, populate or modify certain records, reports, tasks, statuses, documents, evidence, workflows, recommendations or other generated Results.

The Client must verify the effects of a Session before approving, using, transmitting or finalising the resulting generated Outputs.

A completed Session does not mean that the underlying process is legally compliant, operationally complete, validated by a competent person or sufficient to satisfy the Client’s obligations.

7.6 Collaborative Sessions

Certain Sessions may allow several authorised Users to participate, in particular to gather information from different teams, assign tasks, request validations, comment on specific elements, or complete a multi-step process.

The Client remains responsible for determining the persons authorised to participate in a Session, the roles assigned, the access rights granted, the information shared, and the internal validations required.

Any act or omission by an authorised User in the context of a Session shall be deemed to constitute an act or omission by the Client, in accordance with the Contract.

7.7 Incident-related Sessions

Where a Session is used to document a security or confidentiality incident or any similar event, its purpose is to assist the Client in collecting, organising and tracking information relating to that event.

Such a Session does not constitute a full investigation, a definitive legal assessment, a decision to notify, a statement to an authority, a communication to a data subject or a validation of the adequacy of the measures taken.

The Client remains responsible for determining, within the applicable timeframes, its obligations regarding notification, documentation, remediation, communication, preservation of evidence and follow-up.

7.8 Sessions relating to requests from data subjects

Where a Session is used to document or process a request for access, rectification, erasure, portability, objection or any other request from a data subject, it is intended to assist the Client in structuring the follow-up to that request.

Such a Session does not replace the verification of the data subject’s identity, the analysis of applicable rights, the assessment of exceptions, the preparation of a response, compliance with statutory time limits, or the retention of the required evidence.

The Client remains responsible for any decision, response, communication or omission relating to a request from a data subject.

7.9 Sessions relating to remediation tasks

When a Session is used to create, assign, complete, validate or track a remediation task, it serves as a management and monitoring tool.

The completion of a task or step within a Session does not necessarily mean that the measure taken is sufficient, complete, compliant, correctly implemented or validated.

The Client remains responsible for confirming that the tasks carried out effectively meet the relevant operational, legal, security, compliance or personal data protection requirements.

7.10 Incomplete, abandoned or modified Sessions

A Session may be incomplete, abandoned, suspended, reassigned, modified or resumed depending on the available features and the Account configuration.

Vorellis does not guarantee that an incomplete Session will produce accurate, complete or usable Results.

The Client remains responsible for monitoring the status of Sessions, following up with the relevant authorised Users, completing any missing information and validating the generated Results prior to their use.

7.11 Deadlines, reminders and notifications

Agent AlexArc may include reminders, deadlines, notifications, progress statuses or indicators relating to Sessions.

These elements are provided as management tools. They do not replace the Client’s obligations regarding applicable legal, contractual, regulatory, operational or internal deadlines.

The Client remains responsible for complying with any applicable deadline, even if a notification, reminder, status or indicator is not generated, is delayed, is incomplete or is not viewed by an authorised User.

7.12 Final Approval

The Client must review, validate, and approve the responses, documents, information, decisions, tasks, statuses, recommendations, reports, or other Outputs generated during a Session before relying on or using them.

Where the Session concerns a legal, regulatory, cybersecurity, data protection, human resources, governance or significant risk matter, the Client must ensure that a competent person carries out appropriate validation.

7.13 Changes to Sessions

Vorellis may add, modify, restructure, limit, suspend, replace or remove certain Sessions, questions, help texts, steps, conditional rules, workflows, micro-tasks or guided journeys in accordance with the Contract.

A Session, question, workflow or guided journey presented in the Documentation, during a demonstration or in a marketing communication is only included in the Client’s Subscription if it is specified in the applicable Purchase Order or activated by Vorellis in the Client’s Account.

8. Product-specific functional limitations

8.1 Purpose of functional limitations

Agent AlexArc may be subject to usage limits, functional limits, technical limits, volume limits, access limits, storage limits, export limits, AI usage limits, integration limits or other product-specific restrictions.

These limits may arise from the applicable Purchase Order, the Subscription plan, the activated Modules, jurisdictional packs, the Account configuration, the Documentation, technical constraints, security measures or the features currently available.

8.2 Limits relating to organisations and entities

Agent AlexArc may limit the number of organisations, entities, subsidiaries, business units, departments, environments, client spaces or organisational scopes that can be created, configured or managed within the Client’s Account.

The addition of an organisation, entity, subsidiary, business unit or environment may require an additional Purchase Order, an amended Purchase Order, a plan upgrade or the payment of additional Fees.

The Client must not artificially create or use multiple Accounts, organisations, entities, or environments to circumvent the applicable Usage Limits.

8.3 Limits relating to authorised Users

Agent AlexArc may limit the number of Authorised Users, Administrators, roles, profiles, invitations, active accounts, suspended accounts or concurrent accesses available to the Client.

The Client is responsible for managing its Authorised Users, revoking access when it is no longer required, and ensuring that only one authorised person uses each access.

Sharing a single access with several people is prohibited unless Vorellis expressly authorises it in writing or a specific feature permits it.

8.4 Module-related limitations

Certain Modules may be included, excluded, limited or offered only with certain Subscription plans.

A Module may have its own limitations, in particular regarding the number of records, activities, incidents, requests, suppliers, assessments, tasks, Sessions, evidence, reports, documents, exports or items that may be created, stored, processed or viewed.

The Client has no right of access to a Module not specified in the applicable Purchase Order or not activated by Vorellis in the Client’s Account.

8.5 Limits relating to records

Agent AlexArc may limit the number, volume, fields, entries, relationships, attachments, histories, exports, views or features available for certain records.

These restrictions may relate, in particular, to records concerning processing activities, evidence, suppliers, assessments, incidents, requests from data subjects, remedial measures or any other available records.

The Client remains responsible for structuring its records in accordance with its internal requirements, applicable obligations and the available capabilities of the AlexArc Agent.

8.6 Limitations relating to evidence and documents

Agent AlexArc may limit the file types, formats, sizes, volumes, number of documents, retention periods, preview capabilities, search capabilities, export capabilities, or classification features applicable to uploaded documents, evidence or files.

Vorellis may refuse, block, delete, quarantine or make a file inaccessible where reasonably necessary for reasons of security, performance, compliance, abuse, unsupported format, prohibited content or technical risk.

The Client remains responsible for retaining an independent copy of any documents, evidence or files that they wish to retain outside of Agent AlexArc.

8.7 Limitations relating to jurisdiction packs

Agent AlexArc may limit the number of activated jurisdiction packs, applicable jurisdictions, pack combinations, available languages, mappings, content, questionnaires, reports, or Modules associated with certain packs.

Adding an additional jurisdiction pack may require an upgrade, an additional Purchase Order, an amended Purchase Order or the payment of additional fees.

The availability of a jurisdiction pack does not mean that this pack applies to all of the Client’s activities, systems, suppliers, contracts, incidents or obligations.

8.8 Session Limits

Agent AlexArc may limit the number of Sessions, guided tours, questionnaires, steps, participants, responses, validations, tasks, reminders, notifications or collaborative workflows.

Certain Sessions may be restricted to specific Modules, jurisdiction packs, roles, Subscription plans, organisations or authorised Users.

The Client remains responsible for managing the use of Sessions, monitoring their progress, completing the required information and validating the resulting Results.

8.9 Limitations relating to generated results and reports

Agent AlexArc may limit the number, format, frequency, volume, time period covered, data included, templates, visualisations, exports or features associated with reports, dashboards, summaries, documents or other generated Results.

Certain reports or exports may only be available in specific plans, Modules, jurisdictional packs or formats.

Vorellis does not guarantee that all Generated Results can be exported, reproduced, retained, restored or accessed indefinitely.

8.10 Limitations relating to AI Features

AI Features may be subject to specific limitations, including the number of queries, text volume, documents processed, tokens, usage per period, eligible Modules, applicable packs, users, organisations, or the types of results available.

Vorellis may limit, slow down, suspend, or restrict certain AI Features where necessary to ensure security, stability, availability, performance, the prevention of abuse, compliance with Usage Limits, or compliance with the applicable terms and conditions of third-party providers.

Additional charges may apply if the AI Usage Limits set out in the applicable Purchase Order are exceeded.

8.11 Export Limits

Agent AlexArc may offer certain export features, including for logs, reports, documents, evidence, tasks, histories, tables or generated results.

Exports may be subject to limitations regarding formats, volumes, frequencies, fields included, periods covered, Modules, packs, data types or applicable access rights.

Vorellis is not obliged to provide customised exports, special extractions, format conversions, assisted migration or data reconstruction, unless expressly provided for in a Purchase Order, Statement of Work or separate contract.

8.12 Limits relating to integrations, APIs and connectors

Where Agent AlexArc offers integrations, APIs, connectors, or synchronisations with third-party services, these may be subject to specific limitations, including the number of calls, volumes, frequencies, synchronised fields, compatible services, access rights, configurations, or technical dependencies.

Certain integrations may only be available on specific Subscription plans or may require additional fees.

The availability of an integration may depend on third-party services over which Vorellis has no control.

8.13 Performance and Fair Use Limits

Agent AlexArc is intended for reasonable use in accordance with the Client’s Subscription Plan.

Vorellis may impose, enforce, or modify reasonable limits to protect the security, availability, performance, integrity, or stability of the Services, particularly in the event of excessive, automated, abusive, unauthorised, or unexpected use, or use likely to affect other Clients or Vorellis’ infrastructure.

Such measures may include rate limits, temporary restrictions, queuing, technical thresholds, blocking, throttling, targeted suspensions or upgrade requirements.

8.14 Exceeding Limits

If the Client exceeds the limits applicable to Agent AlexArc, Vorellis may, in accordance with the Contract and the applicable Purchase Order:

a) notify the Client of the exceedance;

b) limit or suspend certain excess features;

c) require a reduction in usage;

d) propose or require a plan upgrade;

e) charge the applicable additional fees;

The Client remains responsible for monitoring their use of Agent AlexArc and for managing their organisations, Authorised Users, Modules, packs, Sessions, logs, documents, evidence, reports, exports, AI usage and integrations within the applicable limits.

8.15 Modification of functional limits

Vorellis may modify the functional limits specific to Agent AlexArc in accordance with the Contract.

Any material adverse change applicable to a current Subscription Period must be handled in accordance with the change rules set out in the Agreement, except where an immediate change is reasonably necessary for reasons of security, compliance, stability, performance, prevention of abuse, applicable law or reliance on a third-party supplier.

9. Support, availability and maintenance specific to Agent AlexArc

9.1 Scope of Support

Vorellis may support the Client regarding Agent AlexArc in accordance with the Subscription plan, the applicable Purchase Order, the available features, the then-applicable support hours, and the support channels made available by Vorellis.

The available support channels may vary depending on the Subscription plan, the applicable Purchase Order, the subscribed support level, and the features offered.

9.3 Support Hours

Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Purchase Order, standard support is provided during Vorellis’ normal business hours, excluding public holidays, announced closure periods or exceptional circumstances.

e) screenshots, error messages, logs or relevant technical information;

f) the alleged level of urgency;

g) known operational impacts.

Any delay, incomplete information, lack of cooperation or inability to reproduce a problem may affect Vorellis’s ability to process a support request.

9.7 Classification of requests

Vorellis may classify support requests according to their nature, urgency, impact, reproducibility, the number of affected Clients, the Module concerned, the applicable support level or any other reasonable operational criteria.

In particular, a request may be treated as:

a) a usage enquiry;

b) an administrative request;

c) a configuration request;

d) a minor issue;

e) a significant technical issue;

f) an incident affecting availability;

g) a potential security incident;

h) a request requiring a separate Professional Service.

Vorellis’s classification of a request serves to organise support handling and does not constitute an admission of liability.

9.8 Response times

Unless expressly agreed in the applicable Purchase Order, Vorellis does not guarantee any specific response time or resolution time.

Vorellis shall use reasonable endeavours to process support requests within a reasonable timeframe, taking into account their nature, urgency, the applicable support level, the information provided by the Client, the availability of teams and operational constraints.

A response time does not constitute a resolution time, unless expressly stated otherwise in the applicable Purchase Order.

9.9 General Availability of Agent AlexArc

Vorellis shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make Agent AlexArc available in accordance with the Contract, the applicable Purchase Order and the platform’s available capacity.

Unless expressly agreed in a Purchase Order or in an applicable service level agreement, Vorellis does not guarantee that Agent AlexArc will be available at all times, without interruption, error, delay, performance degradation or temporary unavailability.

9.10 No Automatic Service Credit

Unless expressly provided for in the applicable Purchase Order, no interruption, degradation, error, slowness, maintenance, suspension, or unavailability of Agent AlexArc shall automatically entitle the Client to a service credit, refund, discount, penalty or any other compensation.

Any service credit, guaranteed service level or financial remedy relating to availability must be expressly provided for in the applicable Purchase Order or in a service level agreement accepted by Vorellis.

9.11 Scheduled Maintenance

Vorellis may carry out maintenance, updates, corrections, improvements, migrations, security measures, backups, optimisations or infrastructure work that may result in a temporary interruption, limitation or degradation of Agent AlexArc.

Where reasonably possible, Vorellis shall use reasonable endeavours to schedule such work to minimise the impact on Clients.

Vorellis may notify the Client of planned maintenance by email, in-app notification, status page, Documentation, portal, or any other reasonable means.

9.12 Emergency Maintenance

Vorellis may carry out emergency maintenance without prior notice where it reasonably believes that immediate action is necessary to protect Agent AlexArc, the Client’s Data, Vorellis’ systems, other Clients, suppliers, or the security, integrity, availability or compliance of the Services.

Emergency maintenance may, in particular, be required in the event of a vulnerability, a security incident, an operational risk, a technical failure, data corruption, a critical outage, abuse, a threat, a legal obligation or a serious risk to Agent AlexArc.

9.13 Product Updates

Vorellis may deploy updates, patches, improvements, new features, interface modifications, workflow changes, package adjustments, questionnaire modifications, improvements to AI Features or other changes relating to Agent AlexArc in accordance with the Contract.

These updates may be rolled out gradually, by environment, by Module, by Subscription plan, by organisation, by jurisdictional pack or by user category.

Certain updates may alter the appearance, operation, availability or presentation of certain features, provided that such changes are made in accordance with the Contract.

9.14 Operational Incidents

Vorellis may monitor, diagnose, classify, prioritise, correct or mitigate operational incidents affecting Agent AlexArc in accordance with its internal procedures.

An operational incident may include, but is not limited to, unavailability, significant slowness, an application error, performance degradation, a Module failure, export difficulty, an integration anomaly, or unexpected platform behaviour.

The handling of an operational incident does not limit the Client’s exclusions, limitations, or liabilities, nor does it affect the rules set out in the Contract.

9.15 Communications regarding incidents

Vorellis may communicate certain information relating to operational incidents by email, in-app notifications, a status page, the portal, Documentation, or any other reasonable means.

Such communications may include, as applicable, a general description of the incident, the affected features, the status of the resolution, available mitigation measures, or confirmation of restoration.

These communications are provided for operational purposes and do not amend the Contract, unless expressly stated in writing by Vorellis.

9.16 Availability Exclusions

Availability commitments, where they exist, do not apply to interruptions, errors, slowdowns, performance degradation or unavailability caused in particular by:

a) the Client’s systems, networks, devices, browsers, configurations or suppliers;

(b) third-party services connected, configured or authorised by the Client;

c) internet, telecommunications, public infrastructure or cloud service providers beyond Vorellis’ reasonable control;

d) scheduled maintenance;

e) emergency maintenance;

f) suspensions carried out in accordance with the Contract;

g) non-compliant, abusive, excessive or unauthorised use of the Services;

h) exceeding the Usage Limits;

i) acts or omissions by the Client or its Authorised Users;

j) events of force majeure;

k) beta, pre-release, experimental or early access features;

l) integrations, APIs, connectors, AI models or third-party providers on which Agent AlexArc relies.

9.17 Client Cooperation

The Client must cooperate reasonably with Vorellis to enable the handling of a support request, an operational incident, a technical issue or a maintenance request.

Such cooperation may include, in particular, the provision of relevant information, the performance of reasonable tests, the verification of configurations, the confirmation of observed behaviour, the designation of a technical or administrative contact, and the implementation of reasonable measures recommended by Vorellis.

9.18 Professional support services

Where the Client’s request goes beyond standard support and requires a bespoke analysis, advanced configuration, training, migration, integration, review, drafting, validation, guidance or other specialist intervention, Vorellis may treat this request as a separate Professional Service.

Vorellis is not obliged to provide such a Professional Service without a Purchase Order, a statement of work, written confirmation, or a separate contract, nor without payment of the applicable Fees.

10. Beta features, pre-release versions and product development

10.1 Purpose of beta or experimental features

Agent AlexArc may include, at Vorellis’s discretion, certain Modules, features, jurisdiction packs, reports, questionnaires, workflows, Sessions, integrations, connectors, AI Features or other elements offered in beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot, lab, early access or limited availability modes.

These features are intended, in particular, to test, validate, improve or gradually roll out new capabilities of Agent AlexArc.

10.2 Access to beta features

Access to a beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access feature may be restricted to certain Clients, Subscription plans, Modules, organisations, jurisdiction packs, authorised Users or environments.

Vorellis may grant, refuse, limit, suspend or withdraw access to these features at its reasonable discretion, in particular for reasons of security, stability, performance, availability, compliance, technical capacity, feedback or product strategy.

10.3 No commitment to general availability

The provision of a feature in beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access does not imply that this feature will be generally offered, maintained, marketed, included in a Subscription plan, made available to all Clients or retained in Agent AlexArc.

Vorellis may modify, replace, suspend, limit or withdraw such a feature without any obligation to make it permanently available.

10.4 Incomplete or unstable operation

Beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot, or early access features may be incomplete, unstable, limited, unfinished, undocumented, less tested, or prone to errors, interruptions, incomplete results, incompatibilities, slowness, changes in behaviour, or loss of functionality.

The Client acknowledges that these features may evolve rapidly and must not be used as critical components of any legal, regulatory, operational, security or compliance process without appropriate validation.

10.5 Prudent Use

The Client must use beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access features with caution.

In particular, the Client must:

a) validate the resulting Outputs;

b) avoid relying on them as the sole basis for decision-making;

c) avoid using them for critical decisions without appropriate human validation;

d) retain, where necessary, independent copies of important information;

e) report to Vorellis any errors, anomalies, unexpected behaviour or significant issues observed.

10.6 Specific Exclusions

Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Purchase Order, beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access features are provided ‘as is’ and ‘as available’.

They are not subject to the same commitments regarding availability, support, performance, stability, documentation, compatibility or maintenance as the generally available features of Agent AlexArc.

No service credits, refunds, discounts, penalties, or compensation shall be due as a result of any error, suspension, limitation, modification, withdrawal, degradation or unavailability of a beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access feature of Agent AlexArc, unless expressly stated otherwise in the applicable Purchase Order.

10.7 Experimental AI Features

Certain AI Features may be offered in beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access mode.

These AI Features may produce results that are incomplete, inaccurate, ambiguous, non-reproducible, unsuitable, out of date or requiring enhanced human validation.

The Client must not use an experimental AI Feature to make a decision that has a significant legal, regulatory, contractual, disciplinary, financial, or operational effect, or is otherwise significant, without appropriate human validation.

10.8 Jurisdictional packs under development

Some jurisdiction packs, compliance content, mappings, questionnaires, templates, articles of association or decision rules may be offered in a preliminary, partial, beta or limited-access version.

Such content may be incomplete, non-exhaustive, subject to validation, limited to certain themes or topics, or subject to change.

The Client must not interpret a jurisdiction pack under development as providing complete or definitive coverage of the obligations applicable in the relevant jurisdiction.

10.9 Client Feedback

The Client or its authorised Users may provide Vorellis with comments, suggestions, reports, ideas, requests for improvement, observations, corrections, or any other feedback regarding beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot, or early access features.

Vorellis may use such feedback in accordance with the Agreement, in particular to correct, improve, develop, test, modify or market Agent AlexArc, without any obligation to compensate the Client.

10.10 Test data and environments

Where reasonably possible, the Client should avoid using highly sensitive, critical, confidential or regulated data in a beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access feature or, unless this is necessary, proportionate, authorised and in accordance with the Agreement.

Vorellis may recommend or impose certain restrictions on the data that may be used in a beta feature, in particular for reasons of security, confidentiality, compliance, performance or stability.

10.11 Transition to General Availability

Vorellis may decide to make a beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access feature generally available.

In such cases, Vorellis may modify its operations, limitations, pricing, name, integration, access conditions, technical requirements, or Documentation.

The general availability of a feature may require an upgrade, an additional Purchase Order, an amended Purchase Order or the payment of additional Fees.

10.12 Withdrawal or Replacement

Vorellis may withdraw, suspend, restrict or replace a beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access feature, in particular where:

a) the feature does not meet Vorellis’ quality, security, compliance or performance objectives;

b) the feature depends on a third-party supplier, model, API or technology that becomes unavailable, costly, limited or incompatible;

c) the feature creates a technical, operational, legal, regulatory or security risk;

d) Vorellis decides to amend its product roadmap;

e) an equivalent or improved feature is rolled out;

f) the feature is no longer justified from either a commercial or technical perspective.

10.13 Continuous Development of Agent AlexArc

Agent AlexArc is an evolving product. Vorellis may modify, improve, restructure, enhance, limit, replace, or remove certain Modules, features, content, web packs, reports, questionnaires, workflows, Sessions, integrations, AI features, interfaces, or elements of Documentation in accordance with the Contract.

Such development may relate in particular to security, reliability, performance, user experience, compliance, maintainability, content quality, workflow efficiency, improvements in generated Results, or adaptation to market needs.

10.14 Roadmaps and product communications

Any roadmap, announcement, demonstration, mock-up, preview, sales presentation, product communication, screenshot, example, prototype or description of a future feature is provided for information purposes only.

These elements do not constitute a contractual commitment to deliver a feature, a Module, a package, an integration, a report, an AI Feature or a specific improvement, unless such a commitment is expressly provided for in a Purchase Order accepted by Vorellis.

10.15 Priority of the Purchase Order

Where a beta, pre-release, experimental, pilot or early access feature is expressly provided for in the applicable Purchase Order, the specific terms of the Purchase Order shall prevail in respect of that feature, in particular regarding its duration, Fees, Usage Limits, scope, support arrangements or access conditions.

Unless otherwise stipulated in the Purchase Order, all limitations, exclusions, mandatory validations and liabilities of the Client set out in the Contract and in this Annex A shall continue to apply.
