This Privacy Policy describes the privacy practices of LegalOn Technologies, Inc. (“LegalOn”, "we", “us” or "our") and how we handle personal information that we collect through our websites, including legalontech.com and review.legalontech.com, our Word add-in LegalOn Contract AI, or any of our other products or digital services that link to this Privacy Policy (collectively, the “Services”), as well as through social media, our marketing activities, and other activities described in this Privacy Policy.
This Privacy Policy may not apply to all information that we process on behalf of our enterprise customers while providing the LegalOn platform to them. Our use of such information is governed by agreements with those enterprise customers. If you have concerns regarding personal information that we process on behalf of an enterprise customer, for example if you are an employee of such an enterprise customer, please direct your concerns to that enterprise customer.
Our websites, products, and services are primarily designed for enterprise organizations and their representatives. We do not offer products or services for use by individuals for their personal, family, or household purposes. Accordingly, we treat all personal information we collect as pertaining to individuals in their capacities as enterprise organization representatives and not their individual capacities.
We may provide additional or supplemental privacy policies for specific products or services that we offer at the time we collect personal information or as otherwise notified to you.
LegalOn has prepared this summary of key privacy practices for your convenience. To fully understand our practices, review our full Privacy Policy below.
Your personal information will be retained only for so long as reasonably necessary for the purposes set out above and consistent with our retention policies, considering criteria such as applicable rules on statute of limitations, legal requirements and the duration of your use of our website and receipt of our Services. In general, this retention will be at least for the duration of your customer relationship with us and a longer period as necessary for legal defense purposes or as required by tax and other applicable laws.
While we do not sell your personal information, we do share your information with third parties, such as companies providing services to us, and in some cases we share the categories of information listed above for targeted advertising purposes. California residents may opt out of “sharing” as defined under the California Consumer Privacy Act here.
This section contains details on the personal information we collect and the sources from which we collect that personal information.
Information you provide to us. You may provide personal information to us through the Services or otherwise, such as:
You may provide other data not specifically listed here, which we will use as described in this Privacy Policy or as otherwise disclosed at the time of collection.
Third-party sources. In some cases, we combine personal information we receive from you with personal information we obtain from other sources, such as:
Automatic data collection. We, our service providers, and/or our business partners may automatically log information about you, your computer or mobile device, and your interaction over time with the Services, our communications, and other online services, such as:
Like many online services, we may use the following technologies to collect data automatically:
Data about others. Users of the Services may have the opportunity to refer other contacts to us and share their contact information with us. Please do not refer someone to us or share their contact information with us unless you have their permission to do so.
We may use your personal information for the following purposes or as otherwise described at the time of collection.
Deidentification is a data processing technique that modifies personal information so that it cannot reasonably be associated with a specific individual. Except for this section, none of the other provisions of this Privacy Policy apply to data that has been deidentified or aggregated (i.e., information about our customers that we combine so that the resulting data no longer identifies or references an individual customer). We commit to refrain from attempting to reidentify deidentified information except to determine whether our deidentification processes work as intended or as permitted by applicable laws. We may use this deidentified or aggregated data and share it with third parties for our lawful business purposes, including to analyze and improve the Services and promote our business.
We may share your personal information with the following parties and as otherwise described in this Privacy Policy or at the time of collection.
California Residents’ Rights. If you are a California resident, subject to certain exceptions set forth under applicable law, you have the following rights under California law with respect to your personal information:
You can submit a request by emailing us at privacy@legalontech.com. We will verify that the information you submit matches our records before we fulfill the request and in certain cases may need to request personal information to verify your identity. You may use an authorized agent to submit a consumer rights request on your behalf using the methods above, however, we will require the authorized agent to provide signed permission to submit the request on your behalf and may still contact you to confirm your identity and that this request was submitted with your permission.
Our disclosures of personal information. California law requires that we detail the categories of personal information that we disclose for certain business purposes, such as to service providers that assist us with securing our services or marketing our products, and to such other entities as described above in this Privacy Policy. In the past 12 months, we did not disclose personal information to third parties.
We did not use or disclose “sensitive personal information” as defined under the CCPA in the past 12 months.
Our legal bases for processing personal information. You can find information about our legal bases for processing your personal information in the “Why and how we use your personal information” section of this Privacy Policy.

You can submit a request by emailing us at privacy@legalontech.com. We will honor such requests as required under the applicable data protection laws and regulations. However, please note that such rights are not absolute: they do not always apply, and exemptions may apply. We will verify that the information you submit matches our records before we fulfill the request and in certain cases may need to request personal information to verify your identity. If we do not comply with your request, we will explain why.
If you are not satisfied with our response, you have the right to make a complaint to the data protection authority in the jurisdiction where you live or work, or in the place where you think an issue in relation to your data has arisen.

Declining to provide information. We need to collect personal information to provide certain services. If you do not provide the information we identify as required or mandatory, we may not be able to provide those services.
The Services may contain links to websites and other online services operated by third parties.

We encourage you to read the privacy policies of the other websites and mobile applications and online services you use.
We employ a number of technical, organizational, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, security risk is inherent in all internet and information technologies and we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information.
We are headquartered in the United States and have international affiliates and we or they may use service providers that operate in other countries.

If Customer or any Authorized User becomes aware that the security of any Account login information has been compromised, Customer shall immediately notify LegalOn and de-activate such Account or change the Account’s login information.

4.2 Customer represents, warrants and covenants that:

5.3 Except for invoiced payments that the Customer has successfully disputed, all late payments shall bear interest at the lesser of the rate of 1.5% per month or the highest rate permissible under applicable law, calculated daily and compounded monthly. Customer shall also reimburse LegalOn for all costs incurred in collecting any late payments, including, without limitation, attorneys' fees in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law (which LegalOn does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder). LegalOn shall be entitled to suspend the provision of any Services if the Customer fails to pay any amounts/fees when due hereunder and such failure continues for 15 days following written notice thereof.
6.1 LegalOn warrants to Customer that the Subscription Services purchased by Customer will, in all material respects, perform in accordance with the applicable portions of the Documentation. This warranty shall not apply to non-conformities, errors, or problems caused by acts within the control of Customer or any of its Authorized Users, from use of the Subscription Services in an unsupported operating environment or manner, or that arises from Customer’s or any third party’s software or systems. Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for breach of the foregoing warranty is LegalOn’s reperformance of the Subscription Services in material conformance with the warranty.
6.2 Each Party represents, warrants and covenants that: (a) it has the full corporate right, power, and authority to enter into this Agreement and perform the obligations and duties hereunder; (b) the execution of this Agreement, and the performance of the obligations and duties hereunder, do not and will not violate any agreement to which it is a party or by which it is otherwise bound; and (c) when executed and delivered, this Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of each party, enforceable against each in accordance with its terms.
6.3 EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED OTHERWISE IN THIS AGREEMENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED TO CUSTOMER “AS IS,” AND LEGALON AND ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL OTHER PROMISES, REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, SYSTEM INTEGRATION AND/OR DATA ACCURACY. LEGALON, ON BEHALF OF ITSELF AND ITS LICENSORS AND SUPPLIERS, DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL MEET CUSTOMER’S REQUIREMENTS, THAT THE OPERATION OR USE OF THE FOREGOING WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ALL ERRORS WILL BE CORRECTED. LEGALON’S LIABILITY UNDER ANY IMPLIED OR STATUTORY WARRANTY, CONDITION, REPRESENTATION, UNDERTAKING OR GUARANTY WHICH CANNOT BE LEGALLY EXCLUDED IS LIMITED IN RESPECT OF THE SERVICES TO SUPPLYING THE APPLICABLE SERVICES AGAIN OR PAYING THE COST OF SUPPLYING THE SERVICES AGAIN, WHICH SHALL BE AT LEGALON’S ELECTION.
7.1 LegalOn, its Affiliates, and/or its licensors, as applicable, own and retain all right, title and interest in and to (a) the Services, the LegalOn Platform, enhancements or modifications thereto, (b) any software, applications, inventions or other technology developed in connection with the Services or support, and (c) all Intellectual Property Rights related to any of the foregoing.

8.2 If the Receiving Party is required by applicable law or legal process to disclose any Confidential Information, it shall, prior to making such disclosure, give the Disclosing Party prior notice of the requirement (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party's cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. For purposes of Sections 8 and 10.5 only, “Receiving Party's Group” shall mean the Receiving Party's Affiliates and its or their employees, officers, directors, members, managers, contractors, agents, attorneys, accountants, and financial advisors.
9.1 The Data Processing Addendum at https://www.legalontech.com/terms-and-conditions?tab=Data-Processing-Addendum (“DPA”) sets forth the Parties’ agreement with respect to the terms governing any processing of Personal Data by LegalOn on Customer’s behalf pursuant to this Agreement. The DPA forms part of this Agreement and supersedes any prior agreements regarding Customer Personal Data. The terms “processing” and “Customer Personal Data” used in this section are all defined in the DPA.
10.1 Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall continue thereafter until all Subscription Terms have expired, unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Section 10.
10.2 Term of Subscription Services. Customer’s access to the purchased Subscription Services shall commence on the “Go Live Date” and continue for the Initial Term, each as specified in the applicable Order Forms. At the expiration of the Initial Term and any Renewal Term for all Subscription Services purchased pursuant to an Order Form, it shall automatically renew for the length of a Renewal Term, unless (a) the Parties expressly agree otherwise in the relevant Order Form; or (b) either Party elects to not renew by notifying the other Party in writing at least 30 days before such renewal where the Renewal Term is longer than 30 days and at least 10 days before such renewal where the Renewal Term is 30 days or less. LegalOn may increase the pricing for any Renewal Term, if applicable, upon at least 30 days’ notice to Customer. Any introductory or temporary discount that may have been offered in an Initial Term does not apply for a Renewal Term (and price increases shall be calculated based on the price without such discounts applied).
10.3 Termination. Either Party may terminate this Agreement and/or any Order Form by providing written notice to the other Party in the event the other Party materially breaches any of its duties, obligations or responsibilities under this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within 30 days after receipt by the breaching Party of written notice specifying the breach.
10.4 Effect of Termination. Expiration or termination of one Order Form shall not affect any other Order Forms. If the Agreement is terminated prior to its natural expiration, all outstanding Order Forms (and all subscriptions and licenses granted by LegalOn thereunder) shall immediately terminate as of the Agreement termination date, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing, and provided that Customer may continue to use (in accordance with the restrictions on use set out in this Agreement) Service Data already provided to it prior to termination or expiry of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any such continued use of the Service Data shall be entirely at the risk of Customer and the obligations of LegalOn hereunder shall no longer apply. Termination or expiration of this Agreement shall not affect any obligation accrued or arising prior to such termination or expiration. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer shall not be entitled to a refund of any prepaid Fees upon termination or expiration of the Agreement, and LegalOn will not release Customer from its obligations to pay LegalOn all Fees that have accrued under this Agreement prior to its termination. Following the termination of this Agreement for any reason, each Party shall destroy any Confidential Information of the other Party upon request from such Party. Each Party agrees to certify, in writing, to the other compliance with the foregoing upon a Party’s request.
10.5 Survival. Any right or obligation of the Parties in this Agreement which, by its nature, should survive termination or expiration of this Agreement including without limitation Sections 5, 6.3, 7, 8, 10.4, 10.5, 11, 12, 23, and 24, will survive any such termination or expiration of this Agreement, and with respect to Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret under applicable law, the rights and obligations set forth in Section 8 hereof will survive such termination or expiration of this Agreement until, if ever, such Confidential Information loses its trade secret protection other than due to an act or omission of the Receiving Party or the Receiving Party's Group.
11.1 By LegalOn. LegalOn agrees to defend or settle, at its expense, Customer and its directors, officers, employees, and independent contractors (collectively, the “Customer Indemnified Party”) from and against any third-party claims alleging that the Customer Indemnified Party’s use of the Services infringes and/or misappropriates any valid (i) issued U.S. patent; (ii) registered U.S. trademark; (iii) registered U.S. copyrights; and (iv) trade secrets. In connection with the foregoing defense, LegalOn shall indemnify the Customer Indemnified Party against all damages finally awarded against Customer in a final judgment or settlement of any of the foregoing claims that are specifically attributable to such suit or action. The indemnification set forth in this Section 11.1 does not apply to the extent of Customer’s negligence, abuse or misapplication of the Services; use of the Services other than as specified in the applicable Documentation; any alterations, modifications or adaptations of the Services performed by anyone other than LegalOn; any unauthorized combination or interfacing of the Services with other hardware or software; or other causes beyond the reasonable control of LegalOn. If Customer is, or LegalOn believes it may become, prohibited from continued use of the Services by reason of an actual or anticipated claim of infringement involving the Software, LegalOn may, at its option and expense, (i) obtain for Customer the right to continue using the Software, (ii) replace or modify the Software so that it is no longer subject to such claim, but performs substantially similar functions in an equivalent manner, and (iii) if neither of the foregoing options are commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and/or the Order Form and refund to Customer a prorated portion of any pre-paid fees paid by Customer as of the date of termination for the Services subject to the claim, in which case Customer will cease use of the Services and return or provide to LegalOn all materials related to the Services subject to such claim. THIS SECTION 11.1 STATES CUSTOMER’S ONLY AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES FOR INFRINGEMENT OR CLAIMS ALLEGING INFRINGEMENT.
11.2 By Customer. Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold LegalOn and its Affiliates and their directors, officers, employees, independent contractors, representatives, and agents harmless for any costs, losses, liabilities, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from (i) any breach of this Agreement; (ii) any Customer Content or Customer’s use of Customer Content; or (iii) fraud or intentional misconduct.
11.3 Conditions. The foregoing indemnification obligations are conditioned on the indemnified party: (a) notifying the indemnifying party promptly in writing of such action, (b) reasonably cooperating and assisting in such defense and (c) giving sole control of the defense and any related settlement negotiations to the indemnifying party with the understanding that the indemnifying party may not settle any claim in a manner that admits guilt or otherwise prejudices the indemnified party, without consent.
12.1 IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER OR TO ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY LOSS OF USE, REVENUE, OR PROFIT OR LOSS OF DATA OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, OR FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (COLLECTIVELY, “SPECIAL DAMAGES”) WHETHER ARISING OUT OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DAMAGE WAS FORESEEABLE AND WHETHER OR NOT THE PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
12.2 IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY’S OR ITS AFFILIATES’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE AGGREGATE AMOUNTS PAID OR PAYABLE TO LEGALON UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IN THE TWELVE-MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR IF CUSTOMER HAS NOT HAD ANY PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS TO LEGALON (FOR EXAMPLE THROUGH A FREE TRIAL), ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,000). THE FOREGOING LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO INDEMNIFICATION OR OBLIGATIONS OF PAYMENT.
This Agreement, including these Terms together with any related Order Forms, exhibits, schedules, attachments, and appendices, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding such subject matter. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and any Order Form, these Terms shall control unless explicitly overridden by the terms of such Order Form, with reference to the specific affected sections of the Terms.
All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers, and other communications under this Agreement (each, a "Notice", and with the correlative meaning "Notify") must be in writing and addressed to the other Party at its address set forth below (or to such other address that the receiving Party may designate from time to time in accordance with this Section). Unless otherwise agreed herein, all Notices must be delivered by personal delivery, nationally recognized overnight courier, certified or registered mail (in each case, return receipt requested, postage prepaid), or electronic mail. Notices from LegalOn will be considered delivered to Customer and effective as of the time such Notice is sent to the email address Customer provides on an Order Form, through the Services, or from which they otherwise email LegalOn.
Notice to LegalOn:
220 Montgomery St, Suite 1600
San Francisco, CA 94104

If any term or provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. Upon a determination that any term or provision is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the Parties agree that the court may modify this Agreement to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.
Subject to the restrictions in this Section 16, LegalOn may amend or modify this Agreement at any time during the Subscription Term by posting the updated terms and updating the ‘Last Updated’ date at the top of these Terms. Any amendment or modification will become effective no earlier than 30 days after it is posted, except that changes addressing new functions of the Services or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. In the event LegalOn materially changes this Agreement, LegalOn shall notify Customer in writing of such material changes (“Modification Notice”). If Customer continues to use or access the Services or LegalOn Platform after the date any such change becomes effective, Customer shall be deemed to have accepted this Agreement as amended or modified. If Customer does not agree to any such amendment to or modification of this Agreement, Customer shall not use or access the Services or LegalOn Platform. If the Modification Notice states that the modifications will become effective during the then-current Subscription Term, and the modifications materially and adversely affect Customer, Customer shall be entitled to give notice in writing to LegalOn to terminate this Agreement within 30 days from the date of the Modification Notice. Customer’s termination will become effective on the later to occur of (i) the date on which Customer delivers a timely termination notice or (ii) the date on which the applicable modifications become effective.
No waiver by any Party of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the Party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power, or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power, or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power, or privilege.
LegalOn may assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of Customer. Except as otherwise expressly permitted in this Agreement, Customer may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of LegalOn (which shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that Customer may assign this Agreement in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of substantially all assets, reorganization, or similar corporate transaction, without consent. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of this Section 18 shall be null and void. No assignment or delegation shall relieve the Customer of any of its obligations under this Agreement.
This Agreement is binding on and inures to the benefit of the Parties to this Agreement and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns.
The relationship between the Parties is that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as creating any agency, partnership, joint venture, or other form of joint enterprise, employment, or fiduciary relationship between the parties, and neither party shall have authority to contract for or bind the other party in any manner whatsoever.
This Agreement benefits solely the Parties to this Agreement and their respective permitted successors and assigns and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, confers on any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit, or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.
Customer agrees that LegalOn may use Customer’s trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos, and domain names in presentations, marketing materials, customer lists, financial reports and website listings for the purpose of advertising or publicizing Customer’s use of the Services. Customer may request to opt out of such usage by providing written notice to LegalOn. Upon request by LegalOn, Customer also agrees to reasonably cooperate with LegalOn to produce and publish a public reference, case study and/or quote regarding Customer’s use of the Services, to be used for LegalOn’s marketing and publicity purposes.
This Agreement and all related documents, and all matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement, whether sounding in contract, tort, or statute are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, United States of America, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of California.
The parties hereto agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity hereof or thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by final and binding arbitration in San Francisco, California (except for an action for interim equitable relief otherwise permitted under this Agreement and/or unless otherwise agreed by the parties), before a sole arbitrator, in accordance with the laws of the State of California for agreements made in and to be performed in that State. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS (or its successor) pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures then in effect; provided, however, if the Parties mutually elect, the arbitration can be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures instead of its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator’s decision shall be reduced to writing, signed by the arbitrator, and mailed to each of the parties and their legal counsel. All decisions of the arbitrator shall be final and binding. The arbitrator or a court of appropriate jurisdiction may issue a writ of execution to enforce the arbitrator’s judgment. Judgment may be entered upon such a decision in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The Parties will pay their own costs (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees) and expenses in connection with such arbitration.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which is deemed an original, but all of which together are deemed to be one and the same agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, a signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, email, or other means of electronic transmission is deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.
Neither Party shall be liable or responsible to the other Party, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached this Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of this Agreement (except for obligations of payment) when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond the reasonable control of LegalOn including, without limitation, acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot, or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, lock-outs, strikes or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to either party's workforce), or restraints or delays affecting carriers or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials, or telecommunication breakdown or power outage, provided that, if the event delaying LegalOn’s performance continues for a continuous period in excess of 60 days, Customer shall be entitled, as its sole remedy under this Agreement, to give notice in writing to LegalOn to terminate this Agreement.

This Data Processing Addendum (“DPA”) forms an integral part of the Subscription Terms of Service (“Agreement”) by and between LegalOn Technologies, Inc. (“LegalOn”) and the Customer identified in the relevant Order Form (“Customer”). Customer enters into this DPA on behalf of itself and, to the extent required under applicable Data Protection Laws, in the name and on behalf of its Affiliates, if any. This DPA incorporates the terms of the Agreement, and any terms not defined in this DPA shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement.
In this DPA, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:
1.1. “Customer Personal Data” means any Personal Data that Customer provides or has made available to LegalOn and is processed by or on behalf of LegalOn on behalf of Customer to perform the Services under the Agreement.
1.2. “Data Protection Laws” means all data privacy and data protection laws applicable to the processing of Customer Personal Data under the Agreement, which may include (i) Cal. Civ. Code §§ 1798.100 et seq., as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 (“CCPA”); (ii) the EU General Data Protection Regulation (EU 2016/679) (the “EU GDPR”), its incorporation into the laws of England and Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland by virtue of the UK European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (the “UK GDPR” and collectively with the EU GDPR, the “GDPR”); and (iii) the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (“FADP”), in each case as may be amended or superseded and including applicable implementing or supplementary legislation and any regulations implementing those laws. The terms “data subject,” “processing,” “processor,” and “controller,” shall have the meanings set forth in the GDPR.
1.3. “Personnel” means a person’s employees, agents, consultants, or contractors.
1.4. “Personal Data” means “personal data,” “personal information,” or similar information governed by Data Protection Laws, as such terms are defined under Data Protection Laws.
1.5. “Personal Data Breach” means a breach of LegalOn’s security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, Customer Personal Data in LegalOn’s possession, custody, or control. Personal Data Breaches do not include unsuccessful attempts or activities that do not compromise the security of Customer Personal Data, including unsuccessful log-in attempts, pings, port scans, denial of service attacks, or other network attacks on firewalls or networked systems.
1.6. “Regulatory Authority” means any supervisory authority or regulatory agency with authority under Data Protection Laws over the processing of Customer Personal Data.
1.7. “Services” means those services and activities to be supplied to or carried out by or on behalf of LegalOn for Customer pursuant to the Agreement.
1.8. “Standard Contractual Clauses” or “SCCs” means, as applicable, (a) Module 2 (where Customer is a controller and LegalOn is processing Personal Data for Customer as a processor) or Module 3 (where Customer is a processor and LegalOn is processing Customer Personal Data on behalf of Customer as a sub-processor) of the standard contractual clauses for the transfer of personal data from a controller to a processor approved by the European Commission pursuant to Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2021/914 (“EEA SCCs”); or (b) the International Data Transfer Addendum to the EEA SCCs issued by the United Kingdom Information Commissioner’s Office and laid before Parliament in accordance with s119A of the Data Protection Act 2018 on February 2, 2022, as revised from time to time (“UK Addendum”).
1.9. “Subprocessor” means any third party appointed by or on behalf of LegalOn to process Customer Personal Data.
2.1. The parties acknowledge that, in respect of Customer Personal Data, Customer acts as the controller, and LegalOn acts as a processor (or subprocessor, if Customer itself is acting as a processor or subprocessor).
2.2. Customer is solely responsible for the accuracy, quality, and legality of (i) the Customer Personal Data provided to LegalOn by or on behalf of Customer, (ii) the means by which Customer acquired any such Customer Personal Data, and (iii) the instructions it provides to LegalOn regarding the processing of such Customer Personal Data. Customer shall ensure that the processing of Customer Personal Data in accordance with Customer’s instructions will not cause LegalOn to be in breach of Data Protection Laws.
2.3. LegalOn will not process Customer Personal Data except in accordance with Customer’s instructions or as required by Data Protection Laws. Customer instructs LegalOn to process Customer Personal Data as necessary (a) to provide the Services to Customer; and (b) to perform LegalOn’s obligations and exercise LegalOn’s rights under the Agreement, including to maintain records relating to the Service and comply with any legal obligations relating to the Service. Where LegalOn receives an instruction from Customer that, in its reasonable opinion, infringes Data Protection Laws, LegalOn will use commercially reasonable efforts to inform Customer.
2.4. Customer Personal Data provided or otherwise made available to LegalOn shall not contain any (a) Social Security numbers or other government-issued identification numbers; (b) protected health information subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) or other information regarding an individual’s medical history, mental or physical condition, or medical treatment or diagnosis by a health care professional; (c) health insurance information; (d) biometric information; (e) passwords to any online accounts; (f) credentials to any financial accounts; (g) tax return data; (h) any payment card information subject to the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard; (i) Personal Data of children under 13 years of age; or (j) any other information that falls within any special categories of data (as defined in GDPR).
LegalOn will ensure that its Personnel are subject to a duty of confidentiality with respect to the Customer Personal Data and to comply with the data protection obligations applicable to LegalOn under this DPA.
4.1. Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (a) LegalOn’s Affiliates may be retained as Subprocessors; and (b) LegalOn and LegalOn’s Affiliates respectively may engage third-party Subprocessors in connection with the provision of the Services. As a condition to permitting a third-party Subprocessor to process Customer Personal Data, LegalOn or a LegalOn Affiliate will enter into a written agreement with each Subprocessor containing data protection obligations that provide substantially similar protection for Customer Personal Data as those in this DPA, to the extent applicable to the nature of the Services provided by such Sub-processor. LegalOn shall remain liable to Customer for the acts and omissions of LegalOn’s Subprocessors in respect of Customer Personal Data to the same extent LegalOn would be liable if performing such processing directly under the terms of this DPA.
4.2. A list of current Subprocessors as of the effective date of this DPA, including their functions and locations, is set forth at https://trust.legalontech.com/subprocessors or such other website address as LegalOn may provide to Customer from time to time (the “Subprocessor List”). Customer acknowledges and agrees that LegalOn may utilize the Subprocessors listed on the Subprocessor List as of the effective date of this DPA.
4.3. LegalOn shall give Customer prior written notice of the appointment of any proposed new Subprocessor after the effective date of this DPA by updating the Subprocessor List or other written means, including reasonable details of the processing to be undertaken by the Subprocessor. If Customer does not object to such change of Subprocessors within ten days of receipt of that notice, Customer shall be deemed to have consented to such change. If, within ten days of receipt of that notice, Customer notifies LegalOn in writing of any objections to the proposed appointment on reasonable grounds relating to the protection of Customer Personal Data: (a) LegalOn shall use reasonable efforts to make available a commercially reasonable change in the provision of the Services, which avoids the use of that proposed Subprocessor; and (b) where such a change cannot be made and failing an amicable resolution between the parties (each acting reasonably and in good faith), Customer may by written notice to LegalOn with immediate effect terminate the Agreement to the extent that it relates to the Services that require the use of the proposed Subprocessor as its sole and exclusive remedy.
5.1. LegalOn shall implement and maintain technical and organizational measures reasonably designed to protect Customer Personal Data against accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure or access, as described in Attachment 2 (the “Security Measures”). LegalOn may update the Security Measures from time to time, provided the updated measures do not materially decrease the overall protection of Customer Personal Data. Customer agrees that the Services, the Security Measures, and LegalOn’s commitments under this DPA are adequate to meet Customer’s needs, including with respect to any security obligations of Customer under Data Protection Laws, and provide a level of security appropriate to the risk in respect of the Customer Personal Data.
5.2. In the event of a Personal Data Breach, LegalOn shall, without undue delay, inform Customer of the Personal Data Breach and take such steps as are necessary and reasonable to remediate such violation to the extent that remediation is within LegalOn’s reasonable control.
5.3. In the event of a Personal Data Breach, LegalOn shall, considering the nature of the processing and the information available to LegalOn, provide Customer with reasonable cooperation and assistance necessary for Customer to comply with its obligations under Data Protection Laws with respect to notifying (i) Regulatory Authorities and (ii) Data Subjects affected by such Personal Data Breach without undue delay. Customer is solely responsible for complying with notification laws applicable to Customer and fulfilling any third-party notification obligations related to any Personal Data Breaches.
5.4. The obligations described in Sections 5.2 and 5.3 shall not apply if a Personal Data Breach results from the actions or omissions of Customer or its Personnel. LegalOn’s obligation to report or respond to a Personal Data Breach under this DPA will not be construed as an acknowledgement by LegalOn of any fault or liability with respect to the Personal Data Breach.
6.1. LegalOn shall, to the extent legally permitted, promptly notify Controller in writing of any complaints, questions or requests received from Data Subjects or Regulatory Authorities regarding the Customer Personal Data. LegalOn shall not respond to such requests without Controller’s prior approval in writing. Considering the nature of the processing and to the extent reasonably possible, LegalOn shall provide Customer with commercially reasonable assistance in relation to handling any such request. To the extent Customer, in its use of the Services, does not have the ability to respond to requests from data subjects to exercise their rights under Data Protection Laws, LegalOn shall comply with any commercially reasonable request by Controller to facilitate such actions to the extent LegalOn is legally permitted to do so. Customer shall be responsible for any costs arising from LegalOn’s provision of such assistance.
6.2. Considering the nature of the processing and the information available to LegalOn and to Customer, LegalOn shall provide reasonable assistance to Customer, at Customer’s cost, with any data protection impact assessments and prior consultations with Regulatory Authorities which Customer reasonably considers to be required of it by Data Protection Laws, in each case solely in relation to processing of Customer Personal Data by LegalOn.
7.1. LegalOn may transfer Customer Personal Data to any country or territory, as reasonably necessary for the provision of the Services, consistent with this DPA. If LegalOn transfers Customer Personal Data that is protected by Data Protection Laws applicable to the European Union, the United Kingdom, and/or Switzerland, and such Customer Personal Data is transferred to a country that is not recognized by the European Commission (or, in the case of transfers from the UK, the competent United Kingdom regulatory authority or governmental body for the United Kingdom, and transfers from Switzerland, the competent authority for Switzerland) as providing an adequate level of protection under applicable Data Protection Laws, LegalOn will ensure that appropriate safeguards have been implemented for such transfer of Customer Personal Data in accordance with Data Protection Laws.
7.2. For a transfer of Customer Personal Data protected by the EU GDPR: (i) the EEA SCCs are hereby incorporated into this DPA; (ii) Customer shall be the ‘data exporter’ and LegalOn shall be the ‘data importer’; (iii) the optional Clause 7 of the EEA SCCs is hereby deleted; (iv) the optional language of Clause 11 of the EEA SCCs is hereby deleted; (v) for purposes of Clause 17 of the EEA SCCs, Option 2 is hereby selected and the governing law shall be the law of Ireland; (vi) Annex I of the EEA SCCs is hereby populated with the corresponding information set out in Attachment 1 of this DPA; (vii) Annex II of the EEA SCCs shall be populated with the Security Measures set out in Attachment 2 of this DPA; (viii) Customer’s rights of audit under the SCCs may be exercised as specified in Section 8 of this DPA.
7.3. For a transfer of Customer Personal Data protected by the UK GDPR: (i) the UK Addendum shall apply to the transfer and is hereby incorporated into this DPA; (ii) Table 1 of the UK Addendum shall be populated with the relevant information as set forth in the EEA SCCs incorporated into this DPA; (iii) Table 2 of the UK Addendum shall be populated with the selected modules and clauses of the EEA SCCs as identified in Section 7.2 of this DPA; (iv) Table 3 of the UK Addendum shall be populated with the relevant information from Attachment 1, Attachment 2, and Section 4 of this DPA; and (v) in Table 4, both the Importer and the Exporter may end the UK Addendum in accordance with the terms of the UK Addendum.
7.4. For a transfer of Customer Personal Data protected by the FADP, the EU SCCs shall apply as specified in section 7.2 above, except that: (i) the competent supervisory authority is the Swiss Federal Data Protection and Information Commissioner; (ii) references to “Member State” in the EU SCCs refer to Switzerland, and data subjects located in Switzerland may exercise and enforce their rights under the EU SCCs in Switzerland; and (iii) references to the “General Data Protection Regulation,” “Regulation 2016/679,” and “GDPR” in the EU SCCs refer to the Swiss FADP (as amended or replaced).
7.5. Pursuant to clause 9(a) of the SCCs and as set out in this DPA, LegalOn may engage third-party Subprocessors in connection with the provision of the Services. LegalOn will make available its then-current list of Subprocessors available to Customer in accordance with this DPA. The parties agree that copies of Subprocessor agreements that LegalOn must provide to Customer pursuant to clause 9(c) of the SCCs may have all commercial information, or clauses unrelated to the SCCs or their equivalent, removed by LegalOn beforehand; and, that such copies will be provided by LegalOn, in a manner to be determined in its discretion, only upon request by Customer. Any such agreements provided to the Customer in accordance with this section or the SCCs shall be considered the Confidential Information of LegalOn.
7.6. If the SCCs (or any alternative transfer mechanism utilized) cease to be a valid mechanism for transferring Customer Personal Data under Data Protection Laws, the parties shall work together in good faith to enter into an appropriate data transfer agreement or negotiate in good faith a solution to enable the transfer of Personal Data to be conducted in compliance with Data Protection Laws.
7.7. It is not the intention of Customer or LegalOn to contradict or restrict any of the provisions set forth in the EU SCCs and UK Addendum and, accordingly, if and to the extent the EU SCCs and/or UK Addendum conflict with any provisions of the Agreement, the EU SCCs and/or UK Addendum shall prevail to the extent of such conflict.
8.1. LegalOn uses external auditors to assess the adequacy of its security measures with respect to Customer Data. Such audits are performed at least once annually at LegalOn’s expense by independent third-party security professionals at LegalOn’s selection and result in the generation of a confidential audit report (“Audit Report”). Upon Customer’s written request, LegalOn will provide Customer with a copy of its latest Audit Report at no cost to Customer, up to once per year. Such Audit Reports will be LegalOn’s Confidential Information under the confidentiality provisions of the Agreement. Customer agrees that the Audit Reports will be used to satisfy any audit or inspection request by or on behalf of Customer in relation to Data Protection Laws, this DPA, and/or the Agreement.
8.2. To the extent that an Audit Report is not available, or where otherwise required by Applicable Data Protection Law or a Regulatory Authority, Customer may request, upon 30 days’ prior written notice and up to once per calendar year, to perform a review at its own expense, with a scope, dates, duration, auditor and any security and/or confidentiality controls to be mutually agreed, of relevant LegalOn policies and procedures governing LegalOn’s handling of Customer Personal Data in connection with the Services, for purposes of verifying LegalOn’s compliance with this DPA. This review will be conducted in a manner that does not compromise LegalOn’s confidentiality obligations to LegalOn’s other customers. Customer shall reimburse LegalOn for any time expended for any such audit at LegalOn’s then-current rates, which shall be made available to Customer upon request. All reimbursement rates shall be reasonable considering the resources expended by LegalOn.
8.3. Nothing in this DPA shall require LegalOn to furnish more information about its Subprocessors in connection with such audits than such Subprocessors make generally available to their customers.
9.1. This section 9 shall only apply to the extent Customer Personal Data is subject to the CCPA. For purposes of this Section 9, the terms “business purpose,” “commercial purpose,” “consumer,” “sell,” “service provider,” and “share” shall have the meanings set forth in the CCPA, and “Personal Information” shall mean Customer Personal Data that constitutes Personal Information governed by the CCPA.
9.2. With respect to any Personal Information, LegalOn is the service provider. LegalOn (i) acknowledges that Personal Information is disclosed by Customer only for limited and specified purposes described in the Agreement; (ii) shall comply with applicable obligations under the CCPA, and shall provide the same level of privacy protection to Personal Information as is required by the CCPA; (iii) shall notify Customer in writing of any determination made by LegalOn that it can no longer meet its obligations under the CCPA; and (iv) agrees that Customer has the right, upon notice, including pursuant to the preceding clause, to take reasonable and appropriate steps to stop and remediate use of Personal Information.
9.3. LegalOn shall not (i) sell or share any Personal Information; (ii) retain, use, or disclose any Personal Information for any purpose other than for the specific business purpose of providing the Services under and in accordance with the Agreement, including retaining, using, or disclosing Personal Information for a commercial purpose other than the business purpose of providing the Services or as otherwise permitted by the Agreement or applicable law; (iii) retain, use, or disclose the Personal Information outside of the direct business relationship between Customer and LegalOn; or (iv) combine Personal Information received pursuant to the Agreement with Personal Information (a) received from or behalf of another person or (b) or collected from LegalOn’s own interaction with any consumer to whom such Personal Information pertains, except as otherwise permitted under the Agreement or applicable law.
9.4. Customer agrees that LegalOn notifying Customer of Subprocessor engagements in accordance with this DPA shall satisfy LegalOn’s obligation under the CCPA to give notice of such engagements.
9.5. LegalOn and Customer acknowledge that LegalOn’s retention, use, and disclosure of Personal Information authorized by Customer’s instructions documented in the DPA are integral to the provision of the LegalOn Services and the business relationship between the parties.
10.1. This DPA is hereby incorporated into and forms part of the Agreement. This DPA amends, supersedes, and replaces any prior agreement between the parties related to data processing and/or the protection of Customer Personal Data.
10.2. This DPA shall remain in effect for as long as LegalOn processes Customer Personal Data on Customer’s behalf or until the termination of the Agreement (and all Customer Data has been returned or deleted in accordance with this DPA). Following completion of the Services, at Customer’s election, LegalOn will return or delete Customer Personal Data without undue delay, unless further storage of such Customer Personal Data is required or authorized by applicable law. If return or destruction is impracticable or prohibited by law, rule or regulation, LegalOn shall take measures to block such Customer Personal Data from any further processing (except to the extent necessary for its continued hosting or processing required by law, rule, or regulation) and shall continue to appropriately protect the Customer Personal Data remaining in its possession, custody, or control. The parties agree that the certification of deletion of Customer Personal Data that is described in Clause 8.1(d) and Clause 8.5 of the EU SCCs (as applicable) shall be provided by LegalOn to Customer only upon Customer’s request. For clarity, LegalOn may continue to process information derived from Customer Data that has been deidentified, anonymized, and/or aggregated such that the data is no longer considered Personal Data under applicable Data Protection Laws and in a manner that does not identify individuals or Customer to improve LegalOn’s systems and services.
10.3. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or this DPA, the liability of each party and each party’s Affiliates under this DPA shall be subject to the exclusions and limitations of liability set out in the Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, LegalOn’s and its Affiliates’ total liability for all claims from Customer arising out of or related to the Agreement and this DPA shall apply in the aggregate for all claims under both the Agreement and all DPAs established under the Agreement.
10.4. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency among the following documents, the order of precedence will be: (1) the applicable terms in the Standard Contractual Clauses; (2) the terms of this DPA; and (3) the Agreement.
