15.0 ACCEPTABLE USAGE POLICY

15.4 Usage Monitoring and Reporting. Tracker provides Customer with access to real-time usage monitoring tools within the Subscription Services, enabling Customer to view current usage levels, remaining allowances, and historical consumption patterns for the features subject to this AUP.
15.5 Exceeding Usage Limits.
15.5.1 Soft Limits. The usage limits set forth in Section 15.3 are implemented as “soft limits,” meaning that Customer will not be automatically prevented from exceeding the stated allowances during a given monthly billing period. However, if Customer’s usage exceeds one hundred ten percent (110%) of the allocated limits for any feature for two (2) consecutive calendar months (an “Overage Trigger”), Customer shall be required to upgrade to a higher plan tier or purchase additional usage allowances in accordance with Section 15.6 within fifteen (15) days of receiving written notice from Tracker of such Overage Trigger. Failure to upgrade or purchase additional allowances within such period may result in Tracker applying the remedies set forth in Section 15.5.3.
15.5.2 Notification. Tracker will notify Customer of usage compared to allocated limits for Customer plan tier within the Tracker platform. Customer is responsible for monitoring its usage and managing its consumption to remain within allocated limits.
15.5.3 Fair Use. If Customer fails to upgrade or purchase additional allowances following an Overage Trigger as required under Section 15.5.1, or if Customer’s usage exceeds the one hundred ten percent (110%) of the allocated soft limits for any feature in any single calendar month, Tracker may, in its reasonable discretion: (i) require Customer to immediately upgrade to a higher plan tier or purchase additional usage allowances; (ii) invoice Customer for overage charges at the then-current per-unit rates for the applicable feature; or (iii) in cases of extreme or abusive usage that impacts system performance for other customers, temporarily throttle or limit Customer access to the affected features in accordance with Section 4.5 of this Agreement.
15.5.4 Purchase Acknowledgment. All purchases of additional usage allowances, subscription bundles, or User licenses shall require Customer’s express written acknowledgment prior to activation. Such acknowledgment shall be provided through Tracker’s electronic ordering system, which shall: (i) present the applicable pricing and terms for the purchase; (ii) include a link to this Agreement available at https://www.tracker-rms.com/master-service-agreement/; (iii) require Customer’s affirmative acceptance; and (iv) generate an electronic confirmation to Customer’s designated billing contact that includes the item(s) purchased, the applicable pricing, and the effective date. Such electronic acknowledgment and confirmation shall constitute a binding amendment to the applicable Order Form for purposes of Section 12.1 of this Agreement.
15.6 Additional Usage Allowances. Customer may increase usage allowances through:
15.6.1 Plan Upgrades. Customer may upgrade to a higher plan tier at any time by executing a new or amended Order Form. Upgraded allowances will become effective upon execution of the Order Form and payment of any applicable fees.
15.6.2 Subscription Bundles. Customer may purchase additional monthly usage allowances through subscription bundles for Campaign Sends, Automation Workflows, EVA Prompts, Text Messages, and Background Checks. In accordance with Section 12.1 of this Agreement, if Customer adds subscription bundles after the beginning of a subscription period, their initial term will be the remainder of the then-current subscription period, unless otherwise agreed in writing. Subscription bundles are subject to the following terms:
(a) Bundle subscriptions shall be co-terminus with Customer’s current subscription term and will be invoiced on a pro-rata basis upon purchase for the remainder of the then-current subscription period;
(b) Bundle subscriptions shall automatically renew in accordance with Section 12.1 of this Agreement for successive Renewal Terms on the same terms unless cancelled in accordance with subsection (d) below or unless either party provides notice of non-renewal at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the relevant subscription period;
(c) Customer may not reduce or cancel bundle subscriptions during the current subscription term;
(d) Bundle subscriptions may be cancelled by providing written notice at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the relevant subscription period, consistent with Section 12.1 of this Agreement;
(e) Pricing for bundle subscriptions is subject to change at renewal, with Customer receiving at least thirty (30) days notice of any price changes.
15.7 Prohibited Uses. In addition to the usage limits set forth above, Customer shall not:
15.7.1 Use the Subscription Services in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair Tracker servers, networks, or the Subscription Services, or interfere with any other party use of the Subscription Services;
15.7.2 Attempt to circumvent, disable, or interfere with any usage monitoring, tracking, or enforcement mechanisms within the Subscription Services;
15.7.3 Use automated scripts, bots, or other automated means to artificially inflate usage or to access the Subscription Services in a manner inconsistent with normal human usage patterns, except as expressly authorized by Tracker in writing;
15.7.4 Use the Subscription Services to send unsolicited bulk communications, spam, or other communications in violation of applicable laws or regulations;
15.7.5 Share login credentials or User accounts to circumvent User-based usage limits.
15.8 Compliance. Customer is responsible for ensuring that all Users comply with this AUP. Any violation of this AUP by a User shall be deemed a violation by Customer.
15.9 Modifications to AUP. Tracker reserves the right to modify this AUP, including usage limits and pricing for additional usage allowances, upon thirty (30) days written notice to Customer. Customer continued use of the affected Subscription Services after the effective date of such modifications constitutes acceptance of the modified AUP. If Customer does not agree to the modifications, Customer sole remedy is to terminate the applicable Order Form in accordance with Section 12.2 of this Agreement.
15.10 Enforcement. Tracker failure to enforce any provision of this AUP shall not constitute a waiver of Tracker right to enforce such provision in the future. Tracker may enforce this AUP in its sole discretion and is not obligated to monitor Customer usage or enforce these provisions unless Tracker determines, in its reasonable judgment, that enforcement is necessary to maintain system performance, security, or availability.
