 additional resources to defend our intellectual property rights in foreign countries, and our inability to do so could impair our business.

Third parties have claimed, and may claim in the future, that aspects of our platform or website infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate their intellectual property rights and such claims could be time-consuming or costly to defend or settle, result in the loss of significant rights, or harm our relationships with our clients or reputation in the industry.

Our success depends, in part, on our ability to develop and commercialize our platform, products, and services without infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of third parties. However, we may not be aware that aspects of our platform, products, or services are infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating third-party intellectual property rights and such third parties may bring claims alleging that our current or future platform capabilities, products, and services infringe their intellectual property rights. Such claims may also result in legal claims against our third-party partners and our clients. We cannot predict the outcome of lawsuits and cannot ensure that the results of any such claims will not have an adverse effect on our business, operating results, or financial condition. These claims may be time consuming, costly to defend or settle, damage our brand and reputation, harm our client relationships, and create liability for us. Contractually, we are expected to, and generally do agree to, indemnify our partners for certain expenses or liabilities they may incur as a result of any such third-party intellectual property infringement claims associated with our platform. In addition, to the extent that any claim arises as a result of third-party technology we have licensed for use in our platform, we may be unable to recover from the appropriate third party any expenses or other liabilities that we incur and may be forced to discontinue our use of such third-party technology. We expect the number of such claims (whether warranted or not) to increase, particularly as a public company with an increased profile and visibility, as our platform, the number of products and services we offer, and the level of competition in our market grows, as the functionality of our platform overlaps with that of other products and services, and as the volume of issued software patents and patent applications continues to increase.

Companies in the financial services and technology industries, including some of our current and potential competitors, own large numbers of patents, copyrights, trademarks, and trade secrets and frequently engage in litigation based on allegations of infringement or other violations of intellectual property rights. In addition, many of these companies
