For all Licensed Nodes and Licensed Devices within a specific Production Deployment, all such nodes and instances must be at the same level of Support, including any that are used for disaster recovery or backup that are associated with the specific Production Deployment. For the avoidance of doubt, each specific Production Deployment can have its own level of Support. Similarly, all Licensed Nodes and Licensed Devices in a development or test environment must be at the same level of Support but such Licensed Nodes and Licensed Devices may be at a different support level than the Production Deployment(s).

6.2 Quando si utilizza la funzione di replica tra centri dati, l'Acquirente deve avere tutti i Nodi e i Dispositivi con licenza allo stesso livello di supporto per tutte le istanze su tutti i lati della connessione di replica, anche se un lato della connessione viene utilizzato solo per il ripristino di emergenza o il backup.

7. Tasse.

7.1 This Section applies only to Enterprise Licenses, but not to Free Licenses. Customer will pay Couchbase the Fee(s) in advance, unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Order. All payments are non-cancelable, not subject to the Limitation of Liability in Section 12 below, and shall be made in the currency stated on the applicable Order and are due within thirty (30) days of the date of the invoice, unless otherwise stated on the invoice. Late payments will bear interest at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1 ½%) per month or the maximum rate allowed by applicable law. Customer will reimburse Couchbase for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) in collecting any overdue amounts.

7.2 Tutte le Commissioni dovute ai sensi del presente Contratto sono:

(a) importi netti e sono pagabili per intero, senza deduzione di tasse o imposte di alcun tipo;

(b) al netto di, e l'Acquirente è responsabile di, tutti i dazi e le tasse (inclusa l'Imposta sul Valore Aggiunto che sarà pagata dall'Acquirente, se applicabile, all'aliquota e con le modalità per il momento previste dalla legge), ad eccezione delle tasse basate sul reddito netto di Couchbase; e

(c) non rimborsabile, salvo nella misura espressamente prevista dal presente Contratto.

7.3 Se il Cliente invia a Couchbase un ordine di acquisto ("OP”), the PO will be deemed a binding contract offer which Couchbase may accept by signing the PO or sending a written order acknowledgment of acceptance of the PO (thereby forming a mutually agreed Order governed by this Agreement); in such case the only terms listed on the accepted PO which will form the Order are the Commercial Details; and all other terms (whether additional or conflicting with this Agreement) on the PO will be void and without effect, even if Couchbase signs the PO. All accepted POs will automatically be governed by this Agreement (even if the PO does not reference this Agreement). It is expressly agreed that Section 7 shall apply in respect of any PO sent by Customer and accepted by Couchbase. It is expressly agreed that this Section 7.3 shall apply in respect of any PO sent by Customer to Couchbase.

8. Conservazione dei documenti e audit.

8.1 L'Acquirente manterrà registri completi e accurati per consentire a Couchbase di verificare la conformità dell'Acquirente al presente Contratto (compreso il numero di Nodi in Licenza e di Dispositivi in Licenza utilizzati dall'Acquirente) e fornirà a Couchbase tali registri entro dieci (10) giorni dalla richiesta.

8.2 Upon at least thirty (30) days prior written notice, Couchbase may audit Customer’s use of the Software to solely assess whether Customer is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement. Any such audit will be conducted during regular business hours at Customer’s facilities and will not unreasonably interfere with Customer’s business activities. Customer will provide Couchbase with access to the relevant Customer records and facilities. If an audit reveals that Customer has underpaid fees to Couchbase, then Couchbase will invoice Customer, and Customer will promptly pay Couchbase for such underpaid fees based on Couchbase’s price list in effect at the time the audit is completed. If the underpaid fees exceed five percent (5%) of the Fee paid by Customer for the Software, then Customer will also pay Couchbase’s reasonable costs of conducting the audit.

9. Riservatezza.

9.1 Il Cliente e Couchbase manterranno la riservatezza delle Informazioni Riservate. "Informazioni riservate" means any proprietary information received by the other party during, or prior to entering into, this Agreement that a party should know is confidential or proprietary based on the circumstances surrounding the disclosure, including the Software and any non-public technical and business information (including pricing). Confidential Information does not include information that (a) is or becomes generally known to the public through no fault of or breach of this Agreement by the receiving party; (b) is rightfully known by the receiving party at the time of disclosure without an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (c) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information; or (d) the receiving party rightfully obtains from a third party without restriction on use or disclosure.

9.3 Upon termination of this Agreement, the receiving party will, at the disclosing party’s option, promptly return or destroy (and provide written certification of such destruction) the disclosing party’s Confidential Information.
