- Licenses or third-party subscriptions (e.g., Microsoft) may be billed separately.
5. Term, Renewal & Termination
The term starts on the effective date of the Order/SOW. Unless stated otherwise, managed services auto-renew monthly. Either party may terminate for material breach not cured within 30 days of written notice. Upon termination, you pay for services rendered and committed third-party costs.

8. Confidentiality
Each party may access the other’s confidential information. The receiving party will use the same degree of care it uses for its own confidential information (at least reasonable care) and only for performing under the Agreement. Confidentiality does not apply to information that is public, independently developed, or lawfully obtained without restriction.
9. Intellectual Property

Our work may rely on third-party platforms (e.g., Microsoft, security vendors). Your use of such platforms is subject to their terms and policies. We are not liable for third-party service outages or changes outside our control.
11. Disclaimers
