For the avoidance of doubt, all such other GitLab products and/or services (including, without limitation, GitLab Enterprise and/or Community Edition(s)) do not constitute “Services” hereunder, and Customer must enter into a separate agreement with GitLab with respect thereto. All software underlying the Services will be hosted on a server under control or direction of GitLab. The Services are subject to modification from time to time at GitLab’s sole discretion, for any purpose deemed appropriate by GitLab, provided that GitLab will not materially reduce the aggregate features and functionalities of the Services during the term of this Agreement. GitLab will use reasonable efforts to give Customer prior written notice of any material modification.
1.2 GitLab will undertake commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services available 99.9% of the time, excluding any time referred to in the next sentence.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, GitLab reserves the right to suspend or limit Customer’s access to the Services if GitLab determines (in its sole discretion) that Customer’s use of the Services is likely to (i) damage the Services or interfere with GitLab’s ability to provide the Services, or (ii) place an unreasonable load on the Services.
2.2 Customer will cooperate with GitLab in connection with the performance of this Agreement by making available such personnel and information as may be reasonably required, and taking such other actions as GitLab may reasonably request. Customer will also cooperate with GitLab in establishing a password or other procedures for verifying that only designated employees of Customer have access to any administrative functions of the Services.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Services are GitLab Proprietary Information.
3.2 The Receiving Party agrees: (i) not to divulge to any third person any such Proprietary Information, (i) to give access to such Proprietary Information solely to those employees with a need to have access thereto for purposes of this Agreement, and (iii) to take the same security precautions to protect against disclosure or unauthorized use of such Proprietary Information that the party takes with its own proprietary information, but in no event will a party apply less than reasonable precautions to protect such Proprietary Information. The Disclosing Party agrees that the foregoing will not apply with respect to any information that the Receiving Party can document (a) is or becomes generally available to the public without any action by, or involvement of, the Receiving Party, or (b) was in its possession or known by it prior to receipt from the Disclosing Party, or (c) was rightfully disclosed to it without restriction by a third party, or (d) was independently developed without use of any Proprietary Information of the Disclosing Party. Nothing in this Agreement will prevent the Receiving Party from disclosing Proprietary Information pursuant to any judicial or governmental order, provided that the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party reasonable prior notice of such disclosure to contest such order. In any event, GitLab may collect data with respect to and report on the aggregate response rate and other aggregate measures of the Services’ performance and Customer’s usage of the Services; provided that GitLab will not identify Customer as the source of any such data without Customer’s prior written consent.
3.3 Each party acknowledges and agrees that the other may suffer irreparable damage in the event of a breach of the terms of Sections 1.1, 2.1 or 3.2 of this Agreement and that such party will be entitled to seek injunctive relief (without the necessity of posting a bond) in the event of any such breach.
3.4 Both parties will have the right to disclose the existence but not the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless such disclosure is approved in writing by both Parties prior to such disclosure, or is included in a filing required to be made by a party with a governmental authority (provided such party will use reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment or a protective order) or is made on a confidential basis as reasonably necessary to potential investors or acquirers.
4.1 Except as expressly set forth herein, GitLab alone (and its licensors, where applicable) will retain all intellectual property rights relating to the Services and any suggestions, ideas, enhancement requests, feedback, recommendations or other information provided by Customer or any third party relating to the Services, which are hereby assigned to GitLab. Customer will not copy, distribute, reproduce or use any of the foregoing except as expressly permitted under this Agreement. This Agreement is not a sale and does not convey to Customer any rights of ownership in or related to the Services, or any intellectual property rights.
4.2 Customer shall not remove, alter or obscure any of GitLab’s (or its licensors’) copyright notices, proprietary legends, trademark or service mark attributions, patent markings or other indicia of GitLab’s (or its licensors’) ownership or contribution from the Services.

If GitLab receives any notice or claim that any Content, or Customer’s activities hereunder (including without limitation, with respect to any Content), infringes or violates the rights of a third party or any applicable law or regulation (a “Claim”), Customer will indemnify, defend and hold GitLab harmless from all liability, damages, settlements, attorney fees and other costs and expenses in connection with any such Claim, as incurred. The immediately foregoing indemnity obligations are expressly conditioned on GitLab providing Customer with prompt notice of, and reasonable cooperation and sole control over the defense and/or settlement of the applicable Claim. GitLab may participate in the defense and/or settlement of any applicable Claim with counsel of its choosing at its own expense.
4.4 GitLab will defend, indemnify and hold Customer harmless from liability and other amounts, in each case paid or payable to unaffiliated third parties to the extent resulting from (i) the infringement or violation of any intellectual property or proprietary rights by the Services or (ii) the violation of applicable law or regulation by GitLab in performance of its obligations hereunder, provided GitLab is promptly notified of any and all threats, claims and proceedings related thereto and given reasonable assistance and the opportunity to assume sole control over defense and settlement thereof.
