Customer will provide Device Profile Services Data to Locance and ThreatMetrix as may be necessary for Locance to provide to Customer the Device Profile Services. Customer will take such actions as may be legally and technically necessary to allow Locance or ThreatMetrix to collect Device Profile Services Data Customer decides to receive in connection with the Device Profile Services.
2. Legal Compliance. Customer will use, and Customer will require that its Clients use, the Device Profile Services in compliance with applicable law including, without limitation, those laws related to data privacy, international communications, and the transmission of technical or personal data. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Customer will be responsible for any notifications or approvals required from its Clients or, if applicable, customers of its Clients, arising out of any use of the Device Profile Services including, without limitation, those relating to any computer code deposited on any device and any information secured from such customers or clients (or their respective devices).

4. Limitations. The Device Profile Services analyze the activities and other attributes of devices used in transactions, and provide information, including device reports generated by the Device Profile Services (“Device Reports”), based on the data analyzed and the policies Customer defines.

Customer represents that it will not use the Device Reports (or any other data provided by Locance or ThreatMetrix) for making credit eligibility decisions or for any other impermissible purpose listed in Section 604 of the FCRA (15 U.S.C. 1681b). In addition, Customer shall not, and shall not permit any representative or third party to: (a) copy all or any portion of any Device Profile Materials; (b) decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer (except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law, notwithstanding a contractual obligation to the contrary) the Device Profile Services or Device Profile Materials, or any portion thereof, or determine or attempt to determine any source code, algorithms, methods, or techniques used or embodied in the Device Profile Services or any Device Profile Materials or any portion thereof; (c) modify, translate, or otherwise create any derivative works based upon the Device Profile Services or Device Profile Materials; (d) distribute, disclose, market, rent, lease, assign, sublicense, pledge, or otherwise transfer the Device Profile Services or Device Profile Materials, in whole or in part, to any third party; or (e) remove or alter any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices, legends, symbols, or labels appearing on the Device Profile Services or in any Device Profile Materials.
5. Indemnification. Customer shall indemnify and hold harmless Locance and its licensors, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, attorneys and agents from and against any and all claims, costs, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of or in connection with: (i) any claim alleging that use of any information or data provided by Customer, any of its Clients, or any individual or entity whose information Customer has indicated should be used in connection with the Device Profile Services, infringes the rights of, or has caused harm to, a third party; (ii) any refusal to process any action requested by a user of a device based on Customer’s use of any Device Reports provided to Customer by the Device Profile Services or Customer’s use of the Device Profile Services; or (iii) Customer’s failure to provide data to Locance or ThreatMetrix in the format prescribed by them.
