13. MAINTENANCE
13.1. Corrective maintenance
CENTILOC will provide corrective maintenance for the Software to the Client once the Client has subscribed to the associated maintenance services as specified in the quote. This maintenance consists of correcting an Anomaly to enable the use of the Software as specified in the associated Documentation. Corrective maintenance does not aim to assist the Client or Users in using the Software. The Client expressly acknowledges that the Software optimizes its operations, particularly stock management, and that a margin of error is possible, considering the limits inherent in the technology available at the time of subscription and the technical limitations of the Software. A software may indeed contain errors, and not all errors are economically rectifiable or necessarily need to be corrected. CENTILOC does not guarantee that all errors or anomalies in the Software will be corrected. In the context of corrective maintenance, CENTILOC will make reasonable and appropriate efforts to correct Anomalies detected and qualified by CENTILOC within the following timeframes:
• Blocking Anomalies: provision of a corrective patch or workaround within seven (7) business days upon receipt of the maintenance request by CENTILOC.
• Major Anomalies: provision of a corrective patch or workaround within fifteen (15) business days upon receipt of the maintenance request by CENTILOC.
• Minor Anomalies: Minor Anomalies are not necessarily corrected and may be delivered as part of
a potential Software update.
CENTILOC will determine the level of Anomaly among the above levels based on the event, problem, error,
or situation encountered.
The procedure for performing corrective maintenance services is as follows:
• Before requesting maintenance from CENTILOC, the Client must:
o Refer to the Software Documentation provided.
o Ensure that its hardware and software environment is operational and be able to provide justification. To this end, the Client must perform the recommended preliminary checks specified in the Documentation.
o If the Anomaly persists, the Client may request CENTILOC's intervention provided that the support request includes all documented elements necessary to diagnose the Anomaly.
The Client must be available to CENTILOC for diagnosing the Anomaly. CENTILOC will not assist the Client if the aforementioned preliminary diagnostic procedure has not been performed.
• To enable CENTILOC to perform corrective maintenance services normally, the Client agrees to provide all protocols of its computer system (including any modifications to the system configuration or software environment), affected input or output data, interim and test results, and any relevant documentation describing the encountered Anomaly.
• It is emphasized that it is the Client's responsibility, prior to any request and intervention by CENTILOC for maintenance, to make a copy of its documents, files, and media. In general, the Client must take all necessary measures to protect its files, documents, or any other elements that could potentially be altered as a result of maintenance.
The CENTILOC maintenance service can be contacted:
• By phone at the following telephone number: number available on the website.
• By email to the following address : support@centiloc.com
Support will be provided, excluding public holidays, from Monday to Friday, from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. (5:00 p.m. on Fridays).
Notwithstanding the above, CENTILOC's obligation to provide maintenance services is subject to the following conditions:
I. Payment by the Client of all invoices due for the license and associated services. Consequently, CENTILOC is entitled to suspend, without notice and without formalities, the execution of maintenance services in case of non-payment, total or partial, of its invoices by the Client.
II. The Client's use of the current version of the Software
III. The absence of modifications made by the Client to the Software without CENTILOC's agreement and assistance.
IV. The Client has a hardware and software computer system and/or security tools installed, available, and in compliance with the prerequisites as described in the Documentation associated with the Software.
V. The Client uses the Software in accordance with the terms herein
VI. Malfunctions do not originate from inappropriate use by the Client of their computer system or the Software.
In the event that the Client has requested maintenance support from CENTILOC for reasons not covered by corrective maintenance (e.g., installation assistance, user assistance, etc.) or without conducting preliminary internal diagnostics (e.g., not ensuring the proper functioning of their computer system when the difficulty originates from there), CENTILOC is entitled to charge the Client for the time spent by its maintenance service in resolving problems other than those related to corrective maintenance. This will be in accordance with the applicable service rates and incident reports submitted by CENTILOC.
13.2 Evolutionary maintenance
It should be noted that the license does not grant the Client any rights other than the right to use the current version of the Software at the time of subscription. This version of the Software may benefit from certain updates or new versions proposed by CENTILOC. In this case, the license will automatically extend to the relevant updates. It should be noted that these updates or new versions will be developed at the sole discretion of CENTILOC, without any obligation in terms of content, deadlines, or frequency. Furthermore, as CENTILOC cannot maintain all previous versions of the Software, the continuation of corrective maintenance services may be subject to the transition to a new version of the Software. The update operations of the Software are to be performed by the Client themselves.
14. OTHER SERVICES
14.1. Training
The Client can request training services from CENTILOC for the use of the Software. These trainings will be conducted by CENTILOC or any third party chosen by CENTILOC.

The trainings will be invoiced as provided in the quote. Any expenses incurred for the travel and stay of the trainers will be borne by the Client.
14.2. User assistance
The user assistance service consists of personally assisting the Client or authorized Users by telephone (hotline) to help them use or configure the Software.

The development of these modules will be subject to an agreement with CENTILOC, particularly regarding the applicable pricing, specified in the quote, both for the implementation of specific developments themselves and for the conditions under which they can be used by the Client and subject to maintenance by CENTILOC once they have been developed. Unless expressly and in writing agreed upon for the transfer of rights and/or exclusivity, the intellectual property rights for the specific developments created will remain the full property of CENTILOC. The specific development applies to a given version of a Software. The evolution of a Software and the release of new versions do not impose an obligation on CENTILOC to correspondingly evolve the specific development. This evolution will result in CENTILOC providing an additional update service subject to additional charges.

It is automatically renewable on a yearly basis unless terminated by either party by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt sent at least three (3) months before the expiration date.

Information that is in the public domain in the absence of any fault, information that the receiving party already possessed before its communication, without having received it from the other party, and information communicated to the parties by third parties without any confidentiality obligation are not considered confidential information. The party to whom confidential information is disclosed shall maintain its confidentiality with the same care as it would apply to the protection of its own confidential information and shall not disclose or divulge it to third parties, except with the prior written consent of the other party or as required by law. This confidentiality clause extends to all personnel, for whom all necessary measures must be taken to comply with this obligation. The terms of this obligation are valid for the entire duration of the relationship between the Client and CENTILOC and apply worldwide for five (5) years following the end of their relationship, regardless of the cause.
