  9. Confidentiality

    Each party undertakes that it shall not at any time disclose to any person any confidential information concerning the business, affairs, customers, clients or suppliers of the other party, except as described in this agreement.

    Each party may disclose the other party’s confidential information to its employees, officers, representatives, subcontractors or advisers who need to know that information for the purposes of exercising the party’s rights or carrying out its obligations under or in connection with this agreement. Each party shall ensure that its employees, officers, representatives, subcontractors or advisers to whom it discloses the other party’s confidential information comply with this section of the agreement.

  10. Entire agreement

    This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes and extinguishes all previous agreements, promises, assurances, warranties, representations and understandings between them, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.

    Each party agrees that it shall have no remedies for any statement, representation, assurance or warranty (whether made innocently or negligently) that is not set out in this agreement.

    No variation of this agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing and signed by the parties.

    If any provision or part-provision of this agreement is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal and enforceable. If that modification is not possible, the relevant provision or part-provision shall be deemed deleted. Any modification to or deletion of a provision or part-provision under this clause shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of this agreement.

  11. Duration, termination

    This agreement shall become effective on its date. The agreement is valid for 12 months and will be renewed automatically. Each Party can terminate the agreement with 3 months’ notice.

    Without affecting any other right or remedy available to it, TourDesk may terminate this agreement with immediate effect by giving written notice to the Agent if the Agent commits a material breach of any term of this agreement which breach is irremediable or fails to remedy that breach within a period of 30 days after being notified in writing to do so, or the Agent repeatedly breaches any of the terms of this agreement in such a manner as to reasonably justify the opinion that the Agent’s conduct is inconsistent with the Agent having the intention or ability to give effect to the terms of this agreement. For the avoidance of doubt the Agents use of other comparable systems or set of procedures to the Software is considered a material breach.

    If TourDesk terminates the agreement on the basis of a material breach on behalf of the Agent, the Agent agrees to pay TourDesk a sum equivalent to the commission paid to the Agent for the prior three months.

    On termination of this agreement, the provisions of clause 5 shall continue in force in relation to all sales of the Services where the sale has been concluded before the date of termination.

    Any notice or other communication given to a party under or in connection with this agreement shall be in writing, addressed to that party at its registered office or such other address as that party may have specified to the other party in writing in accordance with this clause, and shall be delivered by email to hjortur@tourdesk.io.
