Loox Partner Agreement

Loox Online Ltd. (“Loox” or “us”, “our”, “we”) provides an online solution which enables third party online merchants to collect reviews from their customers (the “Product”, as defined below). This Partnership Agreement (the “Agreement”) governs our relationship with you: (a) a referral partner who refers Merchants to enroll to use Loox product and services (“Referral Partner”); or (b) a technology partner that provides technology services to merchants whose technology interfaces with the Product (“Tech Partner”). Each will be referred to as a "Party" and together the "Parties".

You must read carefully and accept this Agreement prior to engaging a Merchant (as defined below) regarding the Product and using the unique promo code to activate the Merchant (if you are a Referral Partner), or prior to interfacing with the Product (if you are a Tech Partner). By logging into our dashboard (if you are a Referral Partner) or using our Product’s Application Programming Interface (if you are a Tech Partner), you signify your assent to the Agreement.

If you are entering this Agreement on behalf of a company or another legal entity ("Organization"), you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity and its affiliates to this Agreement.

3. Referral Partner rights and obligations

1. This Section ‎3 applies only to Referral Partners.
   
2. The Referral Partner shall market Loox’s products and services to Merchants and have them become Referred Merchants, by way of referring to Merchants that have expressed interest in the Product via a promo code or link provided by Loox that identifies the Referral Partner as the referrer.
   
3. Referral Partner will not engage in dishonest referrals, and will not refer its own online store (whether or not a Shopify store).

4. Tech Partner rights and obligations

1. This Section ‎4 applies only to Tech Partners.
   
2. Tech Partner will integrate its Technology with the Product using the Product’s Application Programming Interface (“API”). In doing so, the Tech Partner makes the Product available to Merchants as part of the services it provides through its Technology. To this end, Loox provides Tech Partner with access to use the API.
   
3. Tech Partner may access and use the API and the data it makes available, strictly for and on behalf of itself or its Organization and only for the purposes specified under this agreement.
   
4. Loox reserves the right to discontinue or terminate the operation of the API, by issuing written notice to Tech Partner at least 30 days in advance. Loox also reserves the right to suspend the provision of the operation of the API for periodic maintenance or similar purposes, and will endeavor to provide prior written notice to the Tech Partner.
   
5. Loox may, in its discretion but without being obligated to do so, maintain the API with updates, modifications, adaptations, improvements, or enhancements to the API, or any of its features, user interfaces, designs or any other aspect related to it.
   
6. We will use efforts to have the API operate properly. However, as an API that relies on software and third party networks and infrastructure, we do not guarantee that the API will operate in an uninterrupted or error-free manner, or that it will always be available, free from errors, omissions or malfunctions. If we receive notice of any failure or malfunction in the API, or if we become aware of them by ourselves, we will make an effort to regain the API’s availability as soon as practicable. However, such incidents will not be considered a breach of these Terms.
   
7. During the Term, Loox, either directly or with the assistance of third parties, will endeavor to provide you technical support for technical questions, problems and inquiries regarding the API, during Loox’s business days and hours, and pursuant to Loox’s then-applicable support scheme, hours and channels. Loox will attempt to respond to Tech Partner technical questions, problems and inquiries within a reasonable time. However, Loox may decline to provide such support for matters that Loox deems, in its sole discretion, to require unreasonable time, effort, costs or expenses and Loox makes no warranties to any specific response-time or to the successful or satisfactory resolution of the question, problem or inquiry. For the purpose of the provision of technical support for Tech Partner technical questions, problems and inquiries, Tech Partner will cooperate, and work closely with Loox, to reproduce malfunctions, including conducting diagnostic or troubleshooting activities, as Loox reasonably requests.
   
8. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE, NOR DO WE MAKE ANY REPRESENTATION, AND WE PROVIDE NO WARRANTY REGARDING THE ACCURACY, RELIABILITY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE API OR THE DATA OR REGARDING THE EXPECTED BUSINESS RESULTS, OUTCOME OR OPERATIONAL BENEFITS FROM UTILIZING THE API. THE API IS PROVIDED TO YOU “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS” AND YOUR USE OF THE API IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE API, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUALITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, TITLE, COMPATIBILITY AND PERFORMANCE.
