We may need to defend against intellectual property infringement or misappropriation claims, which may be time-consuming and expensive. In the event that we fail to successfully defend any such claims, our business may be temporarily suspended or permanently impacted.

From time to time, the holders of intellectual property rights may assert their rights and urge us to take licenses, and/or may bring suits alleging infringement or misappropriation of such rights. There can be no assurance that we will be able to mitigate the risk of potential suits or other legal demands from competitors or other third parties. Accordingly, we may consider entering into licensing agreements with respect to such rights, although no assurance can be given that such licenses can be obtained on acceptable terms or that litigation will not occur, and such licenses and associated litigation could significantly increase our operating expenses. In addition, if we are determined to have or believe there is a high likelihood that we have infringed upon or misappropriated a third party’s intellectual property rights, we may be required to cease making, selling or incorporating certain key components or intellectual property into the products and services we offer, to pay substantial damages and/or royalties, to redesign our products and services, and/or to establish and maintain alternative branding. In addition, to the extent that our customers and business partners become the subject of any allegation or claim regarding the infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property rights related to our products and services, we may be required to indemnify such customers and business partners. If we were required to take one or more such actions, our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, negative publicity and diversion of resources and management attention.

We currently serve customers from third-party data center facilities operated by Amazon Web Services. The majority of our services are housed in third-party data centers operated in Tokyo, and we employ geographically distributed redundant, back-up data centers for all of our services. Any outage or failure of such data centers could negatively affect our product connectivity and performance. Our primary environments are operated by our technical engineers, and any interruptions or other disruptions of these primary and backup data centers
