Your responsibilities

7. Tell other users about these terms: If you create any user accounts for the Service for anyone else, you must make sure that they are aware of this Agreement and that they agree to be bound by it.

8. Abide by the law: You must use the Services in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. The Services are designed to help you to fulfil your responsibilities under applicable law regarding the maintenance of controlled drug registers, however the Services do not constitute a replacement of these registers, and in the event of any failure in the Service, you are required to maintain your own registers as prescribed by applicable law. You warrant that you have all rights, licenses, authorisations and consents required to use the Service and enter into this Agreement.

9. Don't damage our systems: You must never introduce any software virus or other malware (including any bugs, worms, logic bombs, trojan horses or any other self propagating or other such program) that may infect or cause damage to the Service or our systems, or otherwise disrupt the provision of the Service, nor do anything which could reasonably be expected to damage, disable, overburden, compromise or materially impair our systems or security, or otherwise interfere with any other party's use or enjoyment of the Service.

Don't copy us: You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, modify, resell, create derivative works of, reverse engineer or decompile (as defined in section 50B of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988) the Services, nor may you observe, study or test the functioning of the Service (or any part of it), except and only to the extent that such restriction is prohibited pursuant to section 50B of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

11. Be nice: You must never act abusively, threateningly or disrespectfully towards any of our employees, partners or customers.

Payment terms

12. Trial period: New, registered users of the Clara app are entitled to a 30 day free trial of the Services.

13. How much you pay: The amount that you pay and how often depends on the number of pharmacies in your organisation account, and what plan you select. Each plan has a price per pharmacy and a duration (the Billing Period). The amount payable (the Subscription Fee) in a Billing Period is calculated by multiplying the price per pharmacy by the number of active pharmacies in your account. If the number of active pharmacies changes, for example if you create a pharmacy, the amount charged for the Billing Period will be prorated. All prices are in Pounds Sterling (GBP) and exclusive of VAT.

14. Payment authorisation: You authorise us to charge you according to the plan you choose at the then current amount at the beginning of each Billing Period, plus VAT or other taxes at the then current rate. If you make a change to your plan or number of pharmacies, you authorise us to charge you immediately for the prorated difference in the Subscription Fee, if applicable.

15. Your right to use the Services: Payment of the Subscription Fee plus relevant taxes gives you a non-transferrable, non-exclusive right to use the Services, or a subset of the Services as defined by the plan, for the duration of the Billing Period. We have no obligation to provide you with access to the Service if the Subscription Fee or any other fee you have agreed to pay us is not paid on time.

16. Price changes: We reserve the right to change the amount we charge with 30 days notice. Such notice may be provided at any time by email. This will take effect from your next Billing Period unless you cancel your subscription; current Billing Periods will not be affected. We agree not to increase the amount we charge for a given subset of the Services by more than 10% in any twelve month period, except if such an increase is necessary to combat any increases in inflation as determined by the Consumer Prices Index published by the Office for National Statistics.

Intellectual property

17. Clara and the Service: We own Clara and the Service. All copyright, database rights, trademarks and other intellectual property rights in the Service are owned by or licensed to us and nothing in this Agreement shall transfer any rights to you.

18. Comments and suggestions: We want to build a product that our customers enjoy using, and we are grateful for all feedback. You acknowledge and accept that we can use any feedback, suggestions, enhancements or ideas for the Service that you provide to us without restriction, and hereby grant us a royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sub-licensable, irrevocable, and perpetual licence to use such feedback, suggestions, enhancements or ideas. We are not bound by this Agreement to implement any feedback.

27. Disclaimer of warranties: The Service has not been designed to meet your individual requirements and cannot be tested in every operating environment.

We will endeavour to give you at least 30 days notice of any material changes, unless we are required to make immediate changes for reasons outside our control. This Agreement may not otherwise be changed without our written consent.

31. Waiver and severability: No failure or delay by a party to exercise any right or remedy provided under this Agreement or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor shall it prevent or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.

If any provision (or part of a provision) of this Agreement is found by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, the other provisions shall remain in force.
