Curri API Terms of Use​

Last Updated: January 2, 2020​

Curri Inc. (“Curri” or “we”) operates a platform to facilitate on-demand delivery of goods in our cities through our applications and websites. We have developed an application programming interface (the “Curri API” or “API”) and other technical documentation and materials (the “API Materials”) to allow you to develop your own websites or applications that can be used with the Curri API to fulfill deliveries, collectively with the Curri Service, the “Curri Service,” for your own products (the “Partner Product”) or products from third-party businesses with whom you partner (the “Developer Product”) (collectively, “your Product”).

Introduction Use of the Curri API and the Curri Service is governed by and subject to these API Terms of Use (the “API Terms” or “Agreement”), and the API Terms constitute a legal agreement by and between you (“Partner,” “Developer,” or “you”) and Curri (each a “Party” and together as the “Parties”). In addition, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and voluntarily agreed to the Curri Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, both of which are expressly incorporated herein by reference.

Curri reserves the right, at any time without prior notification, to modify these API Terms as well as any external documents referenced and incorporated into this Agreement, including but not limited to Curri Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Partner and Developer Policies and Rules of Conduct, API Pricing Policy, and any information referenced in hyperlinks, and all such modifications shall become effective upon posting. Continued use of the Curri API after any such changes shall constitute your consent to such changes, so please review this page periodically for changes. You must agree upon and abide by these changes accordingly. Access or use of the Curri API and Curri Service at any time constitutes full acceptance of the API Terms.

In consideration of the mutual promises, covenants and agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, agree to the foregoing and as follows:

API License API License from Curri. Subject to these API Terms, Curri hereby grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, sub-licensable and transferable license to access and use the Curri API in accordance with the API Materials and to use the API Materials, in each case, solely for the purposes of: (i) developing and testing your Product for use with the Curri API; (ii) obtaining data made available by Curri through the Curri API (“Curri Data”) for use by you in accordance with this Agreement; and (iii) providing data to Curri through the API (“Partner Data” or “Developer Data,” collectively, “your Data,” and together with Curri Data, “Data”) for use by Curri in accordance with this Agreement. You may only sublicense or transfer access and use of the Curri API, and any applicable credentials or passwords to reputable third-party software developers for the sole purpose of facilitating your use of the Curri API (“Authorized Third Party”). You are solely responsible for the use and integration of the Curri API, credentials and passwords by any Authorized Third Party. You are solely responsible for an Authorized Third Party’s use and/or misuse of the Curri API pursuant to these API Terms. You are solely responsible, and must indemnify Curri, for the use or misuse of the Curri API or Curri Service by any unauthorized users as a result of your willingly or unwillingly giving them access to the Curri API.

License Restrictions. You will not and will not allow any of your directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, Authorized Third Party or any other person (collectively, “Personnel”) to: (i) reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or otherwise attempt to derive the source code or the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization of the Curri API or any Curri Service, or any part of any of the foregoing; (ii) sublicense, transfer, distribute or otherwise make available the Curri API or any API Materials or Curri Service, or any part of any of the foregoing, in any form; (iii) lease, loan or sell the Curri API or any API Materials or the Curri Service, or any part of the foregoing; (iv) create derivative works of or otherwise modify the Curri API or any API Materials or Curri Service, or any part of any of the foregoing; (v) make any copies of the Curri API or any API Materials, or any part of any of the foregoing, in any form; (vi) attempt to defeat, avoid, bypass, remove, deactivate or otherwise circumvent any software protection mechanisms in the Curri API or any Curri Service, including without limitation, any such mechanism used to restrict or control the functionality of any of the foregoing; or (vii) remove or alter any legal, copyright, trademark, watermark, or other proprietary rights notice contained in or on Curri Service.

Rate Limits/Restrictions. There may be rate limits and/or restrictions to the data fields displayed per application or service utilizing the Curri API implemented by Curri from time to time of which you may (but need not) be notified. If such limits or restrictions are implemented, you agree that you shall comply with such limits and restrictions, as applicable, at all times. Any rate limits and/or restrictions implemented are subject to change from time to time at Curri’ sole discretion, effective immediately upon posting. Your use of any methods intended to subvert rate limiting that may be implemented (including maintaining a cache of data) is a violation of these API Terms.

Reservation of Rights. Curri does not grant you any rights in or to the Curri API, API Materials, or Curri Service except as expressly set forth in Section 2(a) above, and as between the Parties, Curri owns and retains ownership of the Curri API, API Materials, and Curri Service, including any and all rights under patent law, copyright law, trade secret law, trademark law and any and all other proprietary rights (“Intellectual Property Rights”).

The provisions of this subsection 3(a) shall survive beyond termination of these API Terms.

Curri may change, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Curri API at any time, including the availability of any Curri API.

The rights granted in these API Terms do not include any general right to use the Curri name or any Curri trademarks, service marks or logos (the “Curri Marks”) with respect to your website or application. Subject to your continued compliance with these API Terms, we agree that you may use Curri Marks for certain limited purposes related to your use of the Curri API or Curri API Materials.

You authorize Curri to charge all Curri fees to the designated payment method associated with your account. Any amount not paid when due will be subject to finance charges equal to 1.5% per month or the highest rate permitted by applicable usury law, whichever is less, determined and compounded daily from the date due until the date paid. Merchant will also reimburse any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Curri to collect any amount that is not paid when due. All payments will be made in US dollars. Failure to make a payment when due will constitute a material breach of this Agreement.

Taxes. You will be responsible for and to pay, or to reimburse Curri on written request, if Curri is required to pay or collect, any sales, use, VAT, excise, export or other tax, duty or other charge of any kind or nature (excluding any tax that is based on Curri’ net income) that is levied or imposed by any governmental authority on the use of the Curri Service or any portion thereof.

Confidential Information “Confidential Information” shall mean any information relating to or disclosed in connection with the API Terms and the use of the Curri API, which is or should be reasonably understood to be confidential or proprietary to Curri, including, but not limited to, technical processes and formulas, source code, product designs, sales, cost and other unpublished financial information, product and business plans, projections, and marketing data.

Non-Use and Non-Disclosure. You agree that, unless Curri gives its prior written authorization, you shall: (a) not use the Confidential Information for any other purpose other than for use of the Curri API and Curri Service; and(b) not disclose any such Confidential Information to any person or entity except your directors, officers, employees and contractors who are required to have such Confidential Information in order to implement and use the Curri API and Curri Service and who are bound by confidentiality obligations protecting the Confidential Information similar to the provisions hereof.

Maintenance of Confidentiality. You shall prevent the unauthorized access, use, disclosure, dissemination or publication of the Confidential Information with the same degree of care that you use to protect your own confidential information of a similar nature, but no less than a reasonable degree of care. You agree to notify Curri in writing of any misuse or misappropriation of the Confidential Information which may come to your attention.

Compelled Disclosure. If you become legally obligated to disclose Confidential Information by any governmental entity with jurisdiction over it, to the extent permitted by law, you shall give Curri prompt written notice of such obligations sufficient to allow Curri the opportunity to pursue its legal and equitable remedies (including but not limited to making an application for a protective order) regarding such potential disclosure. You agree to: (a) assert the confidential nature of such Confidential Information to the governmental entities; (b) disclose only such Confidential Information as is required to be disclosed by law; (c) use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment for any such Confidential Information that is so disclosed; and (d) provide reasonable assistance to Curri in protecting such disclosure.

Return of Materials. All documents and other tangible objects containing or representing Confidential Information that have been disclosed by Curri, and all copies or extracts thereof or notes derived therefrom that are in your possession, shall be and remain the property of Curri and shall be promptly returned to Curri or destroyed (with proof of such destruction), each upon Curri written request.

Term and Termination You may terminate these API Terms at any time by ceasing all use of the Curri API and API Materials and deleting all copies of the Curri API Materials (including all Curri Data) in your possession or control.

We may immediately revoke your use of the Curri API without notice if your use violates any of these API Terms or if we otherwise object to your use of the Curri API. We may also terminate any rights granted hereunder, or may add or remove functionalities or features of the Curri API, at any time and for any reason at our discretion. The rights granted hereunder terminate automatically if (i) you violate any term of the API Terms, (ii) Curri publicly posts a written notice of termination on its website, (iii) Curri sends a written or e-mail notice of termination to you, or (iv) Curri ceases providing access to the Curri API to you. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any costs or damages as a result of termination of this Agreement. Any sections of this Agreement, which expressly or by their nature, extend beyond the termination or expiration of this Agreement, shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement.

Indemnification Your Indemnity. You shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Curri, its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors and employees (“Curri Indemnified Parties”), individually and collectively, from and against all taxes, losses, damages, claims, suits, fines, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and other legal costs, government investigations (“Claims”) brought against the Curri Indemnified Parties by a third party related to, arising from, or in connection with conduct by or alleged to be by: (a) you, your employees, agents, or contractors; (b) an Authorized Third Party, it’s employees, agents or contractors; or (c) any third-party business with whom you partner, its employees, agents, or contractors for the following: (i) use of the Curri API, API Materials, Curri Data or Curri Service; (ii) breach or alleged breach of any of the terms, conditions, obligations or representations under these API Terms; (iii) your Product or the product or service of any third-party businesses with whom you partner; (iv) failure to comply with any laws, rules or regulations applicable to your Product or the service of any third-party businesses with whom you partner; (v) negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct; (vi) any Claim that your Product or the service of any third-party businesses with whom you partner, including any application or website, or any part thereof, infringes any third party Intellectual Property Rights; (vii) any Claim that Authorized Third Party has infringed any third party Intellectual Property Rights; (viii) any Claim arising from your failure or the failure of any third-party businesses with whom you partner to obtain consent or right for us to process User Data or Merchant Data in accordance with these API Terms; and (ix) any third party claims arising as a result of unauthorized access to the Curri API or Curri Service as a result of your action or inaction. You shall pay any settlement amounts agreed by you or damages finally awarded to such third party in such Claims.

Procedure. If Curri is seeking indemnification, we will promptly notify you of the Claim for which we seek indemnity and will cooperate with you in defending the Claim; provided, however, that failure to provide prompt notice will not excuse your obligations under this Section 9, unless the delay materially prejudices your ability to defend the Claim. You will have full control and authority over the defense of an indemnified Claim, except that: (a) you must not agree to a settlement that imposes any obligation, injunctive relief, or liability (other than the payment of monetary damages for which indemnity is provided pursuant to this Section 9) on, or that requires an admission of guilt or wrongdoing by, Curri; (b) you must use counsel reasonably satisfactory to Curri in such defense; and (c) Curri may participate in the defense at its own expense with counsel of its choice.

Miscellaneous Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including all rules, policies and procedures incorporated herein by reference, constitutes the entire legal agreement between the Parties with respect to the Curri Service and Curri API.

Drafting. No ambiguity will be construed against Curri based upon a claim that Curri drafted the ambiguous language.

Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then that provision will be removed from this Agreement without affecting the rest of this Agreement. The remaining provisions of this Agreement will continue to be valid and enforceable.

Conflict of Terms. In case of any inconsistency or conflict between the terms and conditions of these API Terms and those of the Curri Terms of Service, the terms of these API Terms shall govern and control.

No Waiver. The waiver by either Party of any breach of this Agreement does not waive any other breach. The failure of any Party to insist on strict performance of any covenant or obligation under this Agreement will not be a waiver of such Party’s right to demand strict compliance in the future, nor will the same be construed as a novation of this Agreement.

Independent Contractors. The relationship of the Parties established by the Agreement is that of independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement should be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship, or give either Party the power to act as an agent or direct or control the day-to-day activities of the other. Each Party will be responsible for its own costs of conducting business and performing its obligations under the Agreement.

Assignability. This Agreement may not be delegated, assigned or transferred, in whole or in part, by you without prior written approval of Curri. Curri may assign or otherwise transfer this Agreement in connection with a reorganization, consolidation, change of control, merger, acquisition or sale of substantially all of its assets that relate to this Agreement. Any assignment in violation of the foregoing shall be null and void.

Governing Law; Venue. This Agreement, and all the rights and duties of the Parties arising from or relating in any way to the subject matter of this Agreement or the transaction(s) contemplated by it, will be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the law of the State of California, without regard to any conflict of laws provisions that would refer to and apply the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. Any suit or proceeding relating to this Agreement will be brought only in the state courts located in San Francisco County or federal courts located in the Northern District of California. Each of the Parties consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

Force Majeure. A Party shall not be liable for any failure of or delay in the performance of this Agreement for the period that such failure or delay is due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, war, strikes or labor disputes, embargoes, government orders or any other force majeure event.
