Access to particular modules, features, reports or applications depends on the institution's subscription plan, configuration and assigned permissions.

Section 10

Subscriptions

Pikseco services are provided under subscription plans agreed with the institution through an order form, proposal, subscription agreement or equivalent commercial document.

Subscription scope may vary according to users, vehicles, campuses, modules, integrations, support level and deployment requirements.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, subscription rights are non-transferable and limited to the institution and authorized users identified under the applicable agreement.

Section 11

Payments

Fees, payment schedules, renewal terms and applicable service charges are stated in the institution's order form, proposal or enterprise agreement.

Invoices

Invoices are payable within the period stated in the applicable agreement.

Renewals

Renewal arrangements follow the institution's subscription terms.

Taxes

Fees exclude applicable taxes unless expressly stated otherwise.

Late Payments

Overdue amounts may result in reminders, interest where lawful or service restriction.

Enterprise Agreements

Negotiated enterprise terms take precedence where they expressly conflict with this section.

Section 12

Service Availability

Pikseco targets 99.9% platform availability, measured over the applicable service period, excluding scheduled maintenance, emergency maintenance, third-party outages, connectivity failures, force majeure events and circumstances outside Pikseco's reasonable control.

Pikseco may perform scheduled or emergency maintenance to protect security, resolve incidents, improve performance or release platform enhancements.

Unless a separate service-level agreement expressly applies, the availability target is an operational objective and not a service credit commitment.

Section 13

Users must not misuse Pikseco or interfere with the service, other users or institutional operations.

Unauthorized access or attempted access
Reverse engineering or circumvention of technical controls
System abuse or excessive automated requests

Interfering with platform availability or security

Pikseco may investigate suspected misuse and cooperate with institutions or lawful authorities where required.

Section 14

Intellectual Property

Pikseco and its licensors retain all rights, title and interest in the platform, software, source code, interfaces, workflows, branding, documentation, designs, content and related intellectual property.

Subject to payment and compliance with these Terms, Pikseco grants the institution a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to access and use the platform during the subscription term.

No ownership rights are transferred to the institution or any user. Feedback may be used by Pikseco to improve the platform without creating an obligation to the person providing it.

Section 15

Third-party services are governed by their own terms and policies. Pikseco is not responsible for third-party acts or outages beyond Pikseco's reasonable control.

Section 16

Data Ownership

Institution data remains owned by the institution or the relevant data subject, as applicable. Pikseco does not acquire ownership of institution data merely because it is processed through the platform.

Pikseco acts as a technology platform and, where applicable, as a data processor or service provider acting on institutional instructions.

Pikseco may use aggregated or de-identified information for security, analytics, service improvement and business intelligence where the information does not identify an institution or individual.

Section 17

Account Suspension

Pikseco may suspend or restrict access where reasonably necessary to protect users, institutions, the platform or legal compliance.

Violation of these Terms
Fraud or suspected fraud
Security risks
Non-payment
Illegal activity
Misuse that threatens users, institutions or platform integrity

Where appropriate, Pikseco will provide notice and an opportunity to address the issue. Immediate suspension may occur where delay could create a material security, legal, safety or operational risk.

Section 18

Termination

Institutions may terminate services according to the notice, payment and termination provisions in the applicable agreement.

Pikseco may terminate access for material breach, persistent non-payment, unlawful use, serious security risk or another ground permitted under these Terms or the institution's agreement.

On termination, access rights end. Data export, return, retention and deletion are handled according to the applicable agreement, Privacy Policy and legal obligations.

Section 19

Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Pikseco is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, or for loss of profits, revenues, goodwill, data or business opportunity arising from use of the platform.

Pikseco is not responsible for transportation operations, driving conduct, institutional decisions, device failures, inaccurate source data, connectivity interruptions or third-party services outside Pikseco's reasonable control.

Unless a separate enterprise agreement states otherwise, Pikseco's aggregate liability arising from or relating to the services will not exceed the fees paid or payable by the institution for the affected services during the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Section 20

Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, the institution agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Pikseco, its affiliates, officers, employees and service providers from third-party claims, losses, damages, liabilities and reasonable costs arising from:

Institution or user breach of these Terms
Unlawful or unauthorized platform use
Institution-provided data or instructions
Failure to obtain required notices or consents
Violation of law or third-party rights
Transportation operations controlled by the institution

Pikseco will provide reasonable notice of an indemnified claim and allow the institution to participate in the defence, subject to Pikseco's right to protect its interests.

Section 21

Changes to Terms

Pikseco may update these Terms to reflect service changes, legal requirements, security practices or operational needs.

The updated Terms will display a revised “Last Updated” date. Material changes will be communicated through the platform, email or another appropriate channel.

Continued use after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes acceptance, except where applicable law or an enterprise agreement requires separate consent.

Section 22

Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the law and jurisdiction identified in the institution's order form, master services agreement or other applicable enterprise contract.

If no governing-law provision is stated in a separate written agreement, the governing law and exclusive courts will be those of the jurisdiction in which the Pikseco contracting entity is registered.

The parties should attempt in good faith to resolve disputes through authorized business and legal representatives before commencing formal proceedings, except where urgent relief is required.
