Any amount not paid when due shall be subject to a late fee of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, calculated from the date such payment was due until the date paid. Symbol reserves the right to suspend or terminate the Service in accordance with Section 6.2 if payments are not received within sixty (60) days of the due date.

    • 4.4.1 Data Localization Responsibility. Symbol offers regional data hosting in its European Union (EU) node for Partners requiring GDPR compliance.

Partner explicitly agrees to bear all additional costs associated with the setup and maintenance of the EU Node. (iii) Indemnity: Symbol shall have no liability for data residency violations resulting from Partner’s failure to correctly identify or notify Symbol of a Sub-Customer's GDPR requirements, and Partner shall indemnify and hold Symbol harmless for all costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) incurred by Symbol in connection with any such violation or resulting claim.
  • 4.5 Confidentiality. Each Party (the “Receiving Party”) agrees to protect the Confidential Information of the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) with the same degree of care it uses to protect its own similar information, but no less than reasonable care. Confidential Information includes all non-public information disclosed by the Disclosing Party, including pricing, technology, software, business methods, and customer lists. The Receiving Party shall not disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to any third party or use it for any purpose other than to fulfill its obligations under these Terms.
