	Attribution and Reservation of Rights.

This Agreement does not grant Company any rights in any Microsoft logo, trademark, or service mark, and Company will not use any logo, trademark, or service mark of Microsoft for any purpose without Microsoft's prior written approval, other than to attribute Bing in accordance with the Bing Product Guidelines (found at http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/4/E/04E076D4-60B2-4D31-BCC7-C4805B558DBB/Bing%20product%20guidelines.pdf) and API documentation (found at http://www.bing.com/toolbox/bingdeveloper/) (as such guidelines and documentation may be updated from time to time), under which Company has a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license during the Schedule Term to use, reproduce, distribute and display the trademarks, service marks, logos and other distinctive brand features of Microsoft specifically contemplated in the Bing Product Guidelines and API documentation (the “Microsoft Brand Features”), so long as Company’s use is strictly in accordance with such guidelines and documentation.

any sponsorship or endorsement of Company Properties by Microsoft.  All uses of Microsoft’s Brand Features and all goodwill associated therewith insure solely to the benefit of Microsoft.  Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, Microsoft reserves the right to further limit the license granted in this Section to the extent that Company’s use or display may negatively impact the goodwill or reputation associated with Microsoft’s Brand Features.
		
	3.
	COMPANY OBLIGATIONS


		
	4.1
	Company Properties Changes.  Company will promptly notify Microsoft prior to making changes to Company Properties (including page design and/or the placement of the Paid Search Services) so that Microsoft may assess the impact to the number or quality of impressions, or the performance of the Bing Services, and the parties will work together in good faith to resolve any material adverse impact.  Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Microsoft at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of any change to the Company Properties that would result in a material increase in impressions (including conversion of a service from subscription to free).  In the event that Microsoft reasonably anticipates that the modifications will negatively impact its ability to generate revenue, or a negative impact is observed following the implementation of such modifications, Microsoft will have the right to propose modifications to the commercial terms of this Schedule, and to terminate the Schedule if Company does not agree to the modified commercial terms (which will be in addition to its termination rights set forth herein).


		
	4.2
	Additional Company Properties.    If Company desires to add additional websites to the Properties for the purposes of this Agreement (i.e., to add Microsoft Advertisements thereto), Company shall identify the websites in writing, and providing such other information as Microsoft may reasonably request to evaluate the request (e.g., anticipated traffic volumes, target audience, etc.).  The addition of additional websites to the Properties shall be subject to the mutual agreement of the parties.  For the avoidance of doubt, an additional website for the purposes of this section will include a website that Company acquires and then rebrands with an existing brand name.

hosting and displaying Bing results on the Company Properties.  Company’s license to use the Bing Services is limited, however, to solely the Company Properties.
		
	5.1
	Microsoft grants Company a limited right to provide Paid Services to Sub-syndication Partners. Microsoft reserves the right to pre-approve each Sub-syndication Partner and Sub-syndication Implementation. Company shall submit an initial list of Sub-syndication Partners and Sub-syndication Implementations. Company will provide a reasonable period of prior notice to Microsoft before bringing any additional Sub-syndication Partners or Sub-syndication Implementations onto Company network.  At any time upon Microsoft’s request, Company will provide an up to date list of all its Sub-syndication Partners and Sub-syndication Implementations.  Microsoft may, at its own discretion, provide additional guidelines or require Company to obtain further reviews for sub-syndication. 


		
	5.
	PRIVACY AND DATA RIGHTS


		
	6.1
	Data Collection and Use.  In connection with Microsoft providing the Bing Services, Microsoft may collect, and/or Company will provide, information relating to the Bing Services, including the User’s IP address, referring URL (HTTP Referrer), user agent, Query, time of submission, and Results returned.  Microsoft will comply with the then-current Microsoft Online Privacy Statement (available at http://privacy.Microsoft.com/en-us/fullnotice.aspx or its successors) in its use of the User information.    


		
	6.2
	Consumer Notices.  Company agrees that it will operate a prominent online privacy policy for the Company Properties.  Such privacy policy will include: (a) a full, accurate and clear disclosure regarding the placement, use and reading of cookies and related technologies, and Company’s collection and use of data in relation to activity by Users on the Company Properties; (b) Company’s use of Microsoft for the Bing Services for the Company Properties, and data collection by Microsoft in connection therewith; and (c) a disclosure that Users may choose to not participate in Microsoft’s personalized advertising services, along with a link to Microsoft-specified web address where Users may “opt out” of such personalized advertising services and a link to the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) Opt-out Tool where Users may “opt out” of such personalized advertising services. 


		
	6.
	SCHEDULE TERM AND TERMINATION


		
	7.1
	Schedule Term.  The term of this Schedule (“Schedule Term”) begins on the Schedule Effective Date, and unless earlier terminated, continues for the Initial Schedule Term.  This Schedule will automatically renew for successive one month terms (“Schedule Renewal Term”) unless terminated by either party with 30-day written notice.   


		
	7.2
	Termination.  Termination of this Schedule is governed by the applicable terms of the Agreement. Either party may terminate this Schedule on 30 days’ advance written notice to the other party.  


		
	7.3
	Effect of Termination of this Schedule.   Upon termination of this Schedule, all rights granted to you by this Schedule will automatically terminate and Company will cease to have any rights to use the Services (including, without limitation, the API).  Neither party will be liable to the other for any damages resulting solely from terminating this Schedule 











according to its terms.  The following will survive any termination or expiration of this Schedule:  Table 1, and Sections 1, 6, and 7, as well as all definitions in other sections and all terms that, as expressed or by their nature, are intended to survive. 


		
	7.
	CHANGES TO THE SERVICES; CANCELLATION OF THE SERVICES.  Microsoft may change (including by removing features, adding or removing source types), update, or enhance (collectively for purposes of this Section 8, "modify," or “modification”) the Services at any time and may require Company to obtain and use the most recent versions.  Modifications may affect Company’s ability to use the Services and may require Company to change (at Company’s sole cost) the way Company previously used them.  If any modification is unacceptable to Company, Company’s only recourse is to stop using the Services.  Company’s continued use of the Services following any posted update or change to the Services will constitute Company’s binding acceptance to the update or change.  Microsoft will not be liable for any costs that Company incur, or for lost profits or damages of any kind, related to any such modification.  Microsoft may cancel or suspend Company’s use of the Services or our offering of the Services partially or in its entirety at any time.  Microsoft’s cancellation or suspension may be without cause, without notice, or both.  Upon cancellation, Company’s right to use the Services (including, without limitation, the API) will cease immediately.  Once the Services are cancelled or suspended, any data Company has stored on the Services may not be retrieved later.

7. PRIVACY.  All access to and use of the Services is subject to the data practices set forth in the Microsoft Online Privacy Statement, which is available at http://privacy.microsoft.com/ (which may be updated from time to time).
