2. Metadata Services

2.1 Data Access. In the provision of the Product or a Subscription (including services related thereto), VECTRA may receive, store, process, and utilize network traffic data, including system stability data, threat detection information, user experience data, user interface data, and session and detection metadata (including packet capture data) (such data, “Customer Traffic Data”). Without limiting the foregoing, VECTRA may automatically access, process, and retain Customer Traffic Data transferred on networks to which Customer connects any Product for purposes of product improvement, support, analysis, evaluation, and the provision of services to Customer (collectively, the “Metadata Services”). Specifically, in providing the Metadata Services, VECTRA may monitor and access session and detection metadata, including DNS, HTTP and session data; detection details; host ID mapping data; and precursors, on Customer’s systems or devices.

2.2 Data Access Consent to Perform Metadata Services. Customer acknowledges that the Products detect threats and attacks by monitoring Customer Traffic Data, and that the Products may be less effective in detecting threats, attacks, or other suspicious or unauthorized activity if the Products do not have adequate access to Customer Traffic Data. Customer authorizes and directs VECTRA to store, process, retrieve, and disclose Customer Traffic Data for the following purposes: (i) providing service, including the Metadata Services, to Customer; (ii) analyzing, maintaining and improving VECTRA’s products and services; (iii) complying with legal, governmental or contractual terms or requirements, including without limitation good faith efforts to comply with such terms or requirements; (iv) making malicious or unwanted content anonymously available to its licensors for the purpose of further developing and enhancing VECTRA products and services; and (v) anonymously aggregating and statistically analyzing malicious or unwanted content.

2.3 Data Protection by Customer. Customer represents and warrants that Customer’s use of the Products and Subscriptions complies with all applicable laws, including those related to data privacy, data security, and international communications and that Customer has obtained any and all consents necessary for VECTRA to engage in data processing under this Agreement. Submission or provision of Customer Traffic Data to VECTRA shall be at Customer’s own risk, and VECTRA assumes no responsibility or liability for receipt of such Customer Traffic Data.

2.4 Confidentiality. The Software in source code form used to provide the Metadata Services remains a confidential trade secret of VECTRA and/or its suppliers. The Software is protected by the copyright and other intellectual property laws of the United States and international treaties. Customer acknowledges that, in the course of using the Product, including the Software, Customer may obtain or learn information relating to the Software, which may include, without limitation, information relating to the performance, reliability or stability of the Software, operation of the Software, knowhow, techniques, processes, ideas, algorithms, and software design and architecture (“Proprietary Information”). As between the parties, such Proprietary Information shall belong solely to VECTRA. During and after the term of this Agreement, Customer shall hold in confidence and protect, and shall not use (except as expressly authorized by this Agreement) or disclose, Proprietary Information to any third party

6. Governing Law.

This Agreement is governed by California law, excluding its choice of laws rules.

7. Miscellaneous.

This Agreement and the rights hereunder may not be assigned or otherwise transferred, either directly or indirectly, by Customer without the prior written consent of VECTRA.
