The Parties agree that Partner may only access and use the Hint API provided by Hint to Partner in connection with this Agreement in accordance with the following terms and conditions:
-
Partner may access and use the Hint API during the terms of the Agreement solely for purposes of: 1) Providing Partner’s products and services to Hint clients who qualify as Authorized Clients (as defined in Client Data Section (a) below); and 2) Enhancing integration with Hint’s products and services to support Hint Customer’s internal business purposes. Partner has no rights to, and shall not, access or use the Hint API for any other purpose. For the avoidance of doubt, Partner shall not access or use, and shall not permit any third party to access or use, the Hint API or any integration with the Hint API for the purpose of facilitating, supporting, enabling, or assisting the transition of any customer away from Hint’s products or services.
-
Partner shall treat the Hint API as Hint’s Confidential Information and Partner shall not, and shall have no rights to, reverse engineer, decompile, copy, modify, create derivative works of or based on, sell, resell, display, distribute, disseminate, disclose sublicense, rent, lease, assign or transfer all or any part of the Hint API.
-
Upon expiration or termination of the Agreement, Partner shall cease accessing and using the Hint API and shall promptly delete and destroy all representations, embodiments and copies of the Hint API in Partner’s possession or control.
2. Client Data. The Parties contemplate that Partner will ultimately use the Hint API to access, collect, extract, receive and otherwise obtain certain data from Hint’s clients that is stored on Hint’s systems, to potentially include the names, personal identifiers, contact information and associated information of individual patients and customers of such Hint clients (“Client Data”).
-
-
- Partner agrees that prior to accessing, collecting, receiving, extracting or otherwise obtaining any data or information of or from a given Hint client from, through or using the Hint API, Partner shall first obtain from each such Hint client all authorizations, consents and permissions required for Hint to allow and authorize Partner to do so (and for Hint to otherwise provide such data and information to Partner and for Partner to use such information and data as contemplated herein) without violating any obligations, restrictions, laws or regulations. Partner shall obtain such Hint client authorization either using Partner’s agreement included in the activation setting of the Hint Partner Portal or directly from Hint client. Upon request, Partner shall provide Hint with any such authorization obtained directly from Hint client. Hint client shall then be deemed an “Authorized Client” hereunder and Partner may then use the Hint API to obtain such Authorized Client’s Client Data. Without limiting the foregoing, if Client Data shall include Protected Health Information (“PHI”), Partner shall also enter into a Business Associate Agreement with Hint or Hint client before accessing and using the Client Data.
- Partner shall also ensure (in advance) that each Authorized Client has obtained all required authorizations, consents, and permissions from, and has provided any and all required notices and disclosures to, the individual patients and customers whose Client Data is being accessed, collected, received, extracted or obtained from, through or using the Hint API, including without limitation those required for compliance with applicable privacy and other laws and regulations and those required for compliance with the Authorized Client’s privacy and data access policies and agreements.
- Partner will not access, collect, extract, receive and otherwise obtain any information or data from, through or using the Hint API except for Client Data of Authorized Clients for which all the requirements in Sections (a) and (b) above have been met. Partner will only access, collect, extract, receive and otherwise obtain Client Data through, from or using the Hint API that is necessary for Partner to provide its products and services to the Authorized Client associated with such Client Data (and then only the minimal amount of such Client Data that is necessary for such purpose). Partner will use all Client Data that it accesses, collects, extracts, receives or obtains from, through or using the Hint API solely for purposes of providing its products and services to the Authorized Client associated with such Client Data and for no other purposes. Partner will comply with all applicable laws and regulations (as well as with any applicable privacy policies, consents, authorizations and permissions) in connection with its access, collection, extraction, receipt, processing, storage and use of Client Data.
- All access to and use of Client Data by or for Partner is at the sole risk and responsibility of Partner and Partner is solely responsible for ensuring there is no unauthorized use of, access to or disclosure of any Client Data in Partner’s possession or control. Accordingly, Partner agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Hint from and against any claims, actions, suits or proceedings brought by a third party (including without limitation by any Hint client, any patients and/or any governmental entity) which arise from or in connection with Partner’s access, collection, extraction, receipt, storage, processing or use of Client Data and/or Partner’s failure to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
- For clarity, Client Data accessed or processed by Partner via the Hint API constitutes ‘User Data’ for Hint’s internal use and treatment under Hint’s Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and applicable Business Associate Agreements, and nothing in this Agreement limits Hint’s rights with respect to such User Data.
- Partner agrees that prior to accessing, collecting, receiving, extracting or otherwise obtaining any data or information of or from a given Hint client from, through or using the Hint API, Partner shall first obtain from each such Hint client all authorizations, consents and permissions required for Hint to allow and authorize Partner to do so (and for Hint to otherwise provide such data and information to Partner and for Partner to use such information and data as contemplated herein) without violating any obligations, restrictions, laws or regulations. Partner shall obtain such Hint client authorization either using Partner’s agreement included in the activation setting of the Hint Partner Portal or directly from Hint client. Upon request, Partner shall provide Hint with any such authorization obtained directly from Hint client. Hint client shall then be deemed an “Authorized Client” hereunder and Partner may then use the Hint API to obtain such Authorized Client’s Client Data. Without limiting the foregoing, if Client Data shall include Protected Health Information (“PHI”), Partner shall also enter into a Business Associate Agreement with Hint or Hint client before accessing and using the Client Data.

- IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST SALES, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, OR LOST GOODWILL) IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ITS SUBJECT MATTER, REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDE IN THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEE PAID OR PAYABLE BY THE LIABLE PARTNER UNDER THIS AGREEMENT DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR $100,000, WHICHEVER IS HIGHER.
