2. Construction
2.1Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. “Including” means including without limitation. The singular includes the plural and the plural the singular. A reference to a statute or regulation includes any amendment or successor provision.
2.2This Agreement is the product of negotiation between commercially sophisticated parties. No rule of construction requiring interpretation against the drafting party applies.
2.3Where a provision conflicts with a mandatory requirement of law applicable to the Customer, that requirement prevails and the provision is read as modified to the minimum extent necessary.
3. Agreement and Order of Precedence
3.1This Agreement governs access to and use of the Services. By executing an Order Form that references this Agreement, by creating an account, or by using the Services, the Customer accepts these terms. A person accepting on behalf of an organization represents that they hold authority to bind it and, where the organization is a governmental body, that acceptance has been authorized in the manner its governing law requires.
3.2In the event of conflict, the order of precedence is: the Data Protection Agreement; the Order Form; this Agreement. Agentic Learning acknowledges that a Data Protection Agreement may take precedence as to the handling of education records and does not contest that precedence. No Data Protection Agreement conveys any right in Platform IP.
3.3Agentic Learning will not condition provision of the Services on any waiver by the Customer of a right conferred by the Data Protection Agreement.
4. The Services
4.1Agentic Learning provides Agentic IEP, a multi-agent workflow system that assists qualified personnel in preparing, reviewing, and validating special education documentation, and the Agentic Intelligence Management System, through which the Customer administers tenancy, user roles, provisioning, audit, and export.
4.2Agentic Learning grants the Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable right to access and use the Services during the term of the Order Form, solely for the Customer’s own internal educational purposes and solely for the number of students and modules stated in the Order Form.
4.3Agentic Learning may modify the Services provided it does not materially degrade core functionality during a paid term. Material adverse changes are notified at least sixty (60) days in advance, and where a change materially and adversely affects the Customer’s use, the Customer may terminate the affected module on notice given within thirty (30) days and receive a pro-rata refund of prepaid unused fees.
4.4A feature identified as pilot, beta, or pre-release is provided as is, without warranty or service commitment, and may be withdrawn at any time. Such a feature may not be used to produce documentation entered into a Student Record.
5. Implementation, Training, and Support
5.1Implementation proceeds through configuration of tenancy, definition of roles and scope, integration and field mapping, validation against Customer data structures, and phased deployment. Scope and timeline are stated in the Order Form.
5.2Agentic Learning provides role-based training as stated in the Order Form. Training materials are Platform IP, are licensed for the Customer’s internal use during the term, and may not be reproduced for any other purpose.
5.3Support is provided during the coverage window and to the response targets stated in the Order Form.
5.4Professional services beyond the scope of the Order Form are provided under a separate statement of work. Deliverables of such services are Platform IP unless the statement of work expressly provides otherwise.
6. Service Availability and Continuity
6.1Agentic Learning uses commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services available, excluding scheduled maintenance, emergency maintenance, and events beyond its reasonable control. Scheduled maintenance is notified in advance and, where practicable, performed outside instructional hours.
6.2Where an Order Form states a service level commitment, that commitment and any associated remedy apply and are the Customer’s exclusive remedy for unavailability.
6.3Agentic Learning maintains a business continuity and disaster recovery capability, tests restoration periodically, and furnishes a summary of its recovery objectives on request.
6.4Agentic Learning will not degrade or withhold the Customer’s access to Customer Data during a bona fide dispute, other than a suspension permitted by Section 10.5.
6.5Source code escrow is not provided under this Agreement. Where a Customer requires escrow, it is available only under a separate agreement on Agentic Learning’s form, under which any release is limited to object code necessary for continuity of the Customer’s own internal use and conveys no right in the Agentic Learning Algo.
7. Nature of the Services and Decision Authority
7.1The Services are decision-support software. They assemble, draft, and validate documentation from data the Customer supplies. They produce draft work product for professional review and render no determination regarding any student.
7.2All eligibility, evaluation, placement, service, methodology, and least restrictive environment decisions are made by the Team in accordance with applicable law. Agentic Learning is not a member of any Team, participates in no meeting of a Team, and makes no determination regarding any student. This allocation reflects the statutory assignment of decision-making authority under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and is not a matter of configuration.
7.3Agentic Learning will not configure, and will not permit configuration of, the Services to adopt, finalize, or transmit documentation into a Student Record without review by the Customer’s personnel.
7.4The Customer will ensure that Output is reviewed and verified by personnel qualified under applicable law before it is adopted, distributed, or entered into a Student Record. Output that has not been reviewed is a draft.
7.5Output does not constitute legal, medical, psychological, diagnostic, or educational advice, and no attorney-client, clinician-patient, or evaluator-examinee relationship arises from its use.
7.6Use of the Services does not reduce or discharge the Customer’s obligations under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act, or applicable jurisdictional law, including any obligation to provide a free appropriate public education. The Customer remains the entity legally responsible for the content of each individualized education program it adopts.
8. Independent Professional Judgment
8.1The Customer acknowledges that it retains and exercises independent professional judgment in evaluating Output, and does not rely on the Services as a substitute for the professional judgment of its qualified personnel or for the deliberation of the Team.
8.2The Customer acknowledges that Output may contain errors, omissions, or content inappropriate for a particular student, that identifying such content is the purpose of the review required by Section 7.4, and that the Services are designed on the assumption that such review occurs.
9. Customer Responsibilities
9.1The Customer will submit only data it holds the authority and lawful basis to submit, and will maintain the parental consent, notice, and procedural safeguard obligations that remain its own.
9.2The Customer will administer user roles and access scope in accordance with its determination of legitimate educational interest, and will review role assignments at least annually.
9.3The Customer will ensure that personnel with access receive training on the confidentiality obligations applicable to education records.
9.4The Customer will designate the officials to whom security notices and confidentiality matters are directed, including the official designated under 34 CFR § 300.623(c) where applicable.
9.5The Customer is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the data it submits and for its own network, devices, and identity infrastructure.
9.6The Customer is responsible for the acts and omissions of each person to whom it grants access, as though they were its own.
10. Accounts, Access, and Security
10.1The Customer is responsible for activity occurring under credentials issued to it, for keeping credentials confidential, and for ensuring credentials are not shared.
10.2The Customer will remove or request removal of access promptly when a person leaves the organization or changes role.
10.3The Customer will notify Agentic Learning without undue delay of any suspected unauthorized access to the Services or to Customer Data, and of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Platform IP.
10.4Agentic Learning may suspend access where it reasonably believes continued access presents a security risk to Customer Data or to the Services, or that Platform IP is being used in breach of Section 20. Suspension is limited to the scope and duration reasonably necessary, and the Customer is notified promptly.
10.5Agentic Learning may suspend access for non-payment of undisputed amounts more than thirty (30) days overdue, following written notice and a further ten (10) days to cure. Suspension under this Section does not relieve Agentic Learning of its obligations under Sections 12, 15, and 16.
11. Customer Data and Ownership
11.1The Customer owns and retains all right, title, and interest in Customer Data. Agentic Learning acquires no ownership interest in it. Education records remain the property of the educational agency at all times.
11.2Agentic Learning holds a limited licence to host, process, transmit, and display Customer Data solely to provide the Services, maintain their security, and comply with law. That licence terminates on deletion of the data or termination of this Agreement, whichever is earlier.
11.3Agentic Learning does not sell, rent, or license Customer Data, does not use it for advertising, and does not create commercial profiles of students. These commitments survive termination and are not subject to the limitation of liability in Section 32.
11.4Agentic Learning asserts no lien, security interest, or right of retention over Customer Data, including for unpaid fees.
12. Data Protection and Privacy
12.1Agentic Learning performs the Services as a school official with a legitimate educational interest under 34 CFR § 99.31(a)(1)(i)(B), under the direct control of the Customer with respect to the use and maintenance of education records, and subject to 34 CFR § 99.33(a) governing use and redisclosure.
12.2Because the records processed are special education records, Agentic Learning also operates to the confidentiality requirements at 34 CFR §§ 300.610 through 300.627, and applies the more protective requirement where those provisions exceed the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act. Agentic Learning maintains a current listing of personnel who may access personally identifiable information in support of the Customer’s obligation under 34 CFR § 300.612.
12.3Agentic Learning complies with student data privacy law in the Customer’s jurisdiction and executes the data privacy agreement required in that jurisdiction, including supplemental state terms issued for it.
12.4Agentic Learning maintains administrative, physical, and technical safeguards appropriate to the sensitivity of the data, as described in its Data Protection Policy, which is incorporated by reference and which Agentic Learning will not amend in a manner that materially reduces protection during a paid term.
12.5Agentic Learning maintains a current register of sub-processors, enters into written agreements binding each of them no less strictly than it is bound, and notifies the Customer at least thirty (30) days in advance of a material addition affecting the processing of personally identifiable information. The Customer may object on reasonable data protection grounds, and if the objection is not resolved, may terminate the affected module and receive a pro-rata refund of prepaid unused fees.
12.6Agentic Learning notifies the Customer of any confirmed incident involving unauthorized access to or disclosure of Customer Data within the period stated in the Data Protection Agreement and, absent such a provision, within seventy-two (72) hours of confirmation, and provides the information the Customer requires to identify affected individuals and discharge its own notification obligations.
12.7Agentic Learning will notify the Customer before any compelled disclosure of Customer Data to a governmental or law enforcement authority, unless lawfully directed not to, and will disclose no more than the minimum the process requires.
13. Artificial Intelligence and Model Processing
13.1The Services use large language models within a multi-agent workflow system. Discrete agents perform bounded tasks and pass structured results forward, which permits the data transmitted for any single task to be limited to the fields that task requires.
13.2Customer Data is not used to train, fine-tune, or otherwise develop or improve any foundation model. Agentic Learning contracts with each Model Provider on terms prohibiting such use. This is a contractual commitment and not a configuration setting, and it applies to identified and de-identified Customer Data alike.
13.3Each Model Provider is identified in the sub-processor register and is subject to Section 12.5. Agentic Learning will not substitute or add a Model Provider without notice given in accordance with that Section.
13.4Agentic Learning minimizes Model Provider retention of transmitted content to the extent the Model Provider’s commercial terms allow, and will disclose its then-current retention position on request.
13.5The Customer acknowledges that generative systems are non-deterministic. Identical inputs may produce differing Output on separate occasions. Agentic Learning does not represent that Output is reproducible, and the review required by Section 7.4 applies to each instance of Output.
13.6Output is validated against regulatory and internal rule sets before presentation to the Customer’s personnel. Automated validation does not replace human review and is not represented as a determination of legal compliance.
13.7The Services may not be used to make an automated decision producing a legal or similarly significant effect concerning a student, and Agentic Learning will not enable such use.
13.8Where Agentic Learning materially changes the model architecture underlying a licensed module, it will notify the Customer and, on request, describe the change at a level sufficient for the Customer to assess its own compliance obligations. Nothing in this Section requires disclosure of the Agentic Learning Algo, and any description provided is Agentic Learning’s confidential information.
14. Aggregate and De-Identified Data
14.1Agentic Learning may generate and use aggregated, de-identified data for service improvement and to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Services, provided the data cannot reasonably identify any student, user, or institution and is de-identified consistent with 34 CFR § 99.31(b).
14.2Agentic Learning will not attempt to re-identify de-identified data or permit others to do so, will not transfer it to any party other than a sub-processor without the Customer’s prior written consent, and will obtain the Customer’s written approval before publishing any document that identifies the Customer explicitly or by reasonable inference.
14.3Section 13.2 applies to de-identified data. Nothing in this Section permits use of de-identified Customer Data for model training.
14.4Where a Data Protection Agreement restricts the use of de-identified data more narrowly, that restriction controls.
15. Records, Audit Trail, and Evidentiary Support
15.1Agentic Learning maintains an append-only record of access to each Student Record, capturing the identity of the actor, the record, the time, and the action taken. The record is not alterable through the application.
15.2Assertions within Output are attributable to the source instrument or data point from which they derive, so that the Customer may evidence the basis of any statement.
15.3Documentation is version-tracked rather than overwritten, so that the Customer may establish the content of a record as it existed at a given time and may discharge its obligations under 34 CFR §§ 300.618 through 300.621.
15.4Agentic Learning preserves all data points supplied by the Customer and does not discard data in order to resolve apparent inconsistency. Data points bearing different dates are retained as longitudinal evidence.
15.5On the Customer’s written request, Agentic Learning furnishes the audit and disclosure record for the Customer’s tenant in a form suitable for production to a parent, a hearing officer, or an agency exercising monitoring authority.
16. Support in Proceedings
16.1Where the Customer is party to a Proceeding in which documentation prepared with assistance of the Services is at issue, Agentic Learning will, on reasonable notice and at no charge for the first instance in any twelve-month period:
- preserve the relevant tenant records, audit trail, and version history against ordinary deletion for the duration of the Proceeding, on written notice from the Customer identifying the students concerned;
- produce a certified export of the audit trail, version history, and validation results for the records at issue; and
- provide a written declaration of business records sufficient to support admission of those records under the applicable rules of evidence.
16.2Additional support, including testimony, technical explanation of the workflow, or expert analysis, is available under a separate statement of work at Agentic Learning’s then-current rates.
16.3Nothing in this Section makes Agentic Learning a party to a Proceeding, a member of a Team, or the author of a determination. Agentic Learning does not represent the Customer and provides no legal advice.
16.4Agentic Learning will not decline to preserve or produce records under this Section on the basis of a fee dispute.
16.5Protection of proprietary information in a Proceeding. Nothing in this Section requires disclosure of the Agentic Learning Algo, of source code, of model weights, or of prompts or agent definitions. Where such disclosure is sought, Agentic Learning will cooperate with the Customer to resist it, or to obtain a protective order or an in camera arrangement adequate to preserve trade secret status. The Customer will give Agentic Learning prompt notice of any request or order seeking such disclosure and reasonable opportunity to intervene.
17. Regulatory Change
17.1The parties acknowledge that the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act, and jurisdictional requirements applicable to special education documentation are subject to amendment.
17.2Agentic Learning will update the validation rule sets applied by the Services to reflect changes in federal law and in the law of each jurisdiction in which it has an active Customer, within a period reasonable in the circumstances, at no additional charge. Such updates are Platform IP.
17.3Where a regulatory change requires a material redevelopment of a licensed module, the parties will negotiate the scope and cost in good faith, and either may terminate the affected module if they do not reach agreement within sixty (60) days.
18. Ownership of the Platform
18.1Reservation of rights. Agentic Learning and its licensors own all right, title, and interest in the Platform IP. This Agreement grants only the limited right of access stated in Section 4.2. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. No right is granted by implication, estoppel, exhaustion, or otherwise.
18.2Trade secret. The Agentic Learning Algo constitutes trade secret under applicable law, derives independent economic value from not being generally known, and is the subject of reasonable measures to maintain secrecy. The Customer will not disclose any information about its internal structure, components, prompts, agent definitions, rule libraries, weightings, or operation that it may observe, infer, or derive.
18.3No derivation from observation. Access to the Services necessarily exposes the Customer to Output and to interface behaviour. The Customer will not use that exposure to derive, reconstruct, approximate, or document the Agentic Learning Algo, and will not record, catalogue, or systematically analyse Output or system behaviour for that purpose.
18.4Configurations and contributions. Where the Customer configures rule sets, templates, goal libraries, or comparable elements within the Services, or contributes content that is incorporated into the Services, the Customer grants Agentic Learning a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, modify, and distribute that configuration or contribution as part of the Services. This does not apply to Customer Data or to a Student Record.
18.5Feedback. Suggestions, enhancement requests, and other feedback, however communicated, may be used by Agentic Learning without restriction or obligation. Feedback must not include Customer Data.
18.6No adverse assertion. The Customer will not apply for, register, or assert any patent, copyright, trademark, or other right in or to the Platform IP or in any element of it, and will not assist another to do so.
18.7Marks. No right is granted in Agentic Learning’s names, marks, or trade dress, including “Agentic Learning,” “Agentic IEP,” and “Agentic Intelligence Management System.”
19. Output — Rights and Restrictions
19.1Student Records belong to the Customer. The Customer owns each Student Record it adopts, as a record of the educational agency. Agentic Learning claims no ownership in any Student Record and will not assert any right that would impede the Customer’s use of its own education records for the education of its students or for compliance with law.
19.2Platform IP within Output is retained. Ownership of a Student Record does not convey any right in the Platform IP embodied in or expressed through it, including the templates, structures, rule libraries, goal and objective architectures, validation logic, sequencing, taxonomies, and the Agentic Learning Algo. Ownership of a record does not convey rights in the machinery that produced it.
19.3Permitted use of Output. The Customer may use Output for its own internal educational purposes and to discharge its legal obligations, including production to a parent, to a Team, to a hearing officer, or to an agency exercising oversight or monitoring authority. Production compelled by law is permitted and is not a breach of this Section.
19.4Restrictions on Output. The Customer will not, and will not permit any person to:
- use Output, whether individually or in aggregate, to train, fine-tune, evaluate, benchmark, or otherwise develop any machine learning model or other automated system;
- compile Output into a corpus, dataset, library, or template collection for distribution, licensing, publication, or transfer to a third party;
- use Output to derive, reconstruct, approximate, or document the Agentic Learning Algo, or to develop or assist in the development of a Competing Product;
- supply Output to a developer of a Competing Product, or to any third party for any purpose described in this Section; or
- remove or obscure any notice of proprietary rights appearing in Output or in the Services.
19.5Redaction does not remove restrictions. De-identification, redaction of student identifiers, or paraphrase does not remove Output from the restrictions in Section 19.4.
19.6Survival. Section 19 survives termination and applies to Output in the Customer’s possession after termination.
20. Restrictions on Use
The Customer and its users will not:
- use the Services other than for the Customer’s own internal educational purposes;
- submit data they do not have authority or a lawful basis to submit;
- adopt or enter into a Student Record any Output that has not been reviewed as required by Section 7.4;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code, models, prompts, agent definitions, rule sets, or methodologies of the Services, except to the extent this restriction is unenforceable under applicable law and then only after written notice to Agentic Learning;
- develop, or assist any person to develop, a Competing Product, whether using the Services, Output, or information derived from either;
- permit access to the Services by a developer of a Competing Product, or by any person for the purpose of evaluating the Services for competitive development;
- benchmark, test, or evaluate the Services for publication or disclosure to a third party without prior written consent;
- systematically extract, scrape, harvest, or automate retrieval of Output, Documentation, or interface content, or exceed usage limits stated in the Order Form;
- copy, frame, mirror, or reproduce any part of the Services or Documentation other than as necessary for permitted internal use;
- attempt to access data belonging to another customer, or circumvent access controls, tenant boundaries, licence restrictions, or usage limits;
- introduce malicious code, or conduct penetration testing or vulnerability scanning without prior written authorization;
- use the Services to make an automated decision affecting a student’s rights, services, or placement; or
- resell, sublicense, rent, lease, timeshare, or provide the Services to a third party, or use them in a service bureau capacity, except as an Order Form expressly permits.
21. Protection of Proprietary Information
21.1Non-use covenant. The Customer will use Agentic Learning’s confidential information and Platform IP only to exercise its rights under this Agreement, and for no other purpose. The obligation of non-use is independent of the obligation of non-disclosure and is not satisfied by maintaining secrecy alone.
21.2No residuals. No provision of this Agreement grants the Customer a right to use information retained in the unaided memory of its personnel. Any residuals doctrine is expressly disclaimed.
21.3Competitive isolation. The Customer will not permit any person engaged in the development of a Competing Product to access the Services, Output, Documentation, or Agentic Learning’s confidential information, and will inform Agentic Learning promptly if it becomes aware that such a person has obtained access.
21.4Personnel and contractors. The Customer will bind each person to whom it grants access to obligations at least as protective as those in this Agreement, and remains responsible for their compliance.
21.5Trade secret duration. Obligations with respect to the Agentic Learning Algo and other trade secrets continue for so long as the information retains trade secret status, without limitation to any period stated for confidential information generally.
22. Verification of Compliance
22.1Where Agentic Learning has a reasonable, good-faith basis to believe the Services or Output are being used in breach of Sections 19, 20, or 21, it may request written confirmation of compliance, and the Customer will respond within thirty (30) days.
22.2Where the response does not resolve the concern, Agentic Learning may, on thirty (30) days’ notice and not more than once in any twelve-month period, engage an independent auditor bound to confidentiality to verify compliance. The audit will be conducted during business hours, will not unreasonably interfere with the Customer’s operations, will not require access to student personally identifiable information, and will be at Agentic Learning’s expense unless material non-compliance is found.
22.3This Section does not apply to a governmental Customer to the extent its governing law restricts such access, and in that case the Customer will provide written certification of compliance by an authorized official in lieu of audit.
23. Third-Party Services and Integrations
23.1Where the Customer elects to integrate the Services with a student information system or other third-party service, the Customer authorizes transmission of the data necessary for that integration and is responsible for its own agreement with that provider.
23.2Agentic Learning is not responsible for the availability, performance, or data handling practices of a third-party service the Customer directs it to connect to. Agentic Learning remains responsible for its own handling of Customer Data received through that connection.
23.3The Customer will not use an integration to transmit Output or Platform IP to a third party for a purpose restricted by Section 19.4 or Section 20.
24. Fees, Invoicing, and Taxes
24.1Fees, billing frequency, and any multi-year discount are stated in the Order Form. Institutional pricing is generally assessed per enrolled student receiving services, by module.
24.2Undisputed invoices are payable within thirty (30) days of receipt, except that where the Customer is a governmental entity subject to a prompt payment statute, the statutory terms apply.
24.3Fees exclude taxes. A Customer holding an exemption may furnish a certificate.
24.4Where the Customer is a governmental entity, payment obligations beyond the current fiscal year are subject to appropriation, and non-appropriation permits termination without penalty on written notice.
24.5The Customer will notify Agentic Learning of a good-faith dispute within twenty (20) days of the invoice date, and the parties will work to resolve it promptly. Undisputed amounts remain payable.
24.6Use exceeding the student count or module scope stated in the Order Form is chargeable at Agentic Learning’s then-current rates for the period of the excess.
25. Term, Renewal, and Termination
25.1The term is stated in the Order Form. Unless the Order Form provides otherwise, the term renews for successive periods equal to the initial term unless either party gives written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days before the end of the then-current term.
25.2Fees for a renewal term are those stated in the Order Form or, where none are stated, Agentic Learning’s then-current rates, notified at least ninety (90) days before renewal.
25.3Either party may terminate for a material breach that is not cured within thirty (30) days of written notice.
25.4The Customer may terminate immediately on written notice for a breach by Agentic Learning of Section 11.3, Section 12, or Section 13.2.
25.5Agentic Learning may terminate immediately on written notice for a breach by the Customer of Section 18, Section 19.4, Section 20, or Section 21, which the parties agree is a material breach not susceptible of cure by the passage of time alone.
25.6Either party may terminate immediately on written notice if the other becomes insolvent, makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or has a receiver appointed.
26. Effect of Termination and Transition
26.1On termination, the Customer’s right to access the Services ends, and Agentic Learning returns Customer Data in a usable, machine-readable format and then destroys it, or destroys it directly at the Customer’s election, with written certification of destruction.
26.2Data held in backups is destroyed on expiry of the backup cycle.
26.3On request made before termination takes effect, Agentic Learning provides transition assistance for up to ninety (90) days, including export of Customer Data and of the audit and version history, and reasonable cooperation with a successor provider, at its then-current professional services rates unless the Order Form provides otherwise. Export of Customer Data and of the audit record is provided at no charge. Transition assistance does not include disclosure of Platform IP or assistance in replicating the Services.
26.4On termination the Customer will cease all use of the Services and Documentation, and will destroy or return all copies of Documentation, training materials, and other Platform IP in its possession, other than Student Records and Output retained in accordance with Section 19.3. An officer will certify compliance on request.
26.5Sections 1, 2, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13.2, 14, 15, 16, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 26, 27, 28, 30, 31, 32, and 36 through 43 survive termination.
27. Confidentiality
27.1Each party will protect the other’s confidential information with at least reasonable care and will disclose it only to personnel and advisers who need it and who are bound by comparable obligations.
27.2Confidential information does not include information that is public without breach, independently developed without use of or reference to the disclosing party’s confidential information, or lawfully received from a third party without restriction. The party asserting an exception bears the burden of establishing it by contemporaneous written evidence.
27.3Where the Customer is a governmental body subject to public records law, disclosure required by that law is not a breach. Agentic Learning will mark trade secret and commercially sensitive material, and the Customer will give notice sufficient to permit Agentic Learning to assert any available exception and to seek protective relief before disclosure. Agentic Learning acknowledges that the Customer cannot contract away its statutory disclosure obligations.
27.4Customer Data is the Customer’s confidential information regardless of marking. The Platform IP is Agentic Learning’s confidential information regardless of marking.
28. Non-Solicitation
28.1During the term and for twelve (12) months after it, neither party will knowingly solicit for employment any employee of the other who was materially involved in the performance of this Agreement, without the other’s written consent. This does not restrict general advertising not targeted at such persons, or the hiring of a person who responds to it.
29. Representations and Warranties
29.1Each party represents that it holds the authority to enter into this Agreement and that doing so does not conflict with any other obligation.
29.2Agentic Learning warrants that the Services will perform materially in accordance with the Documentation and that it will provide them in a professional and workmanlike manner. The Customer’s exclusive remedy for breach of this warranty is correction or, if correction is not achieved within a reasonable period, termination and a pro-rata refund of prepaid unused fees.
29.3Agentic Learning warrants that it will not knowingly introduce malicious code into the Services and that it holds the rights necessary to grant the access granted under this Agreement.
29.4Agentic Learning warrants that it is not debarred or suspended from contracting with a governmental entity and will notify the Customer promptly if that changes.
29.5The Customer represents that it is not, and is not acting on behalf of, a developer of a Competing Product.
30. Disclaimers
Output is generated in part by probabilistic models. Agentic Learning does not warrant that Output will be accurate, complete, current, free of error, or appropriate for any particular student, and does not warrant any outcome in any Proceeding. The review obligation in Section 7.4 exists because Output requires verification.
Except as expressly stated in Section 29, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available,” and Agentic Learning disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement.
31. Indemnification
31.1Agentic Learning will defend and indemnify the Customer against third-party claims alleging that the Services, provided and used in accordance with this Agreement, infringe a United States patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret, and against claims arising from Agentic Learning’s breach of Section 11.3, Section 12, or Section 13.2, and will pay damages and costs finally awarded or agreed in settlement.
31.2Section 31.1 does not apply to a claim arising from use of the Services in breach of this Agreement, from modification of the Services by any person other than Agentic Learning, from combination with materials not supplied by Agentic Learning where the claim would not have arisen but for the combination, or from continued use after notice of an alleged infringement.
31.3If the Services become, or Agentic Learning reasonably believes they may become, the subject of an infringement claim, Agentic Learning may procure the right to continue use, modify the Services to be non-infringing without material loss of function, or terminate the affected Services and refund prepaid unused fees. This states Agentic Learning’s entire liability for infringement.
31.4The Customer will defend and indemnify Agentic Learning against third-party claims arising from data it had no authority to submit, from use of Output contrary to Section 7.4, from unauthorized access occurring through credentials issued to it, and from violation of Sections 19, 20, or 21. Where the Customer is a governmental entity whose authority to indemnify is limited by law, this Section applies only to the extent the law permits, and the Customer instead remains responsible for its own acts and omissions to the extent permitted by applicable law.
31.5Indemnification is conditioned on prompt written notice, sole control of the defence by the indemnifying party, and reasonable cooperation at the indemnifying party’s expense. Neither party will settle in a manner imposing liability, obligation, or admission on the other without consent, not unreasonably withheld.
32. Limitation of Liability
Neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, or data, however caused and on any theory of liability, even if advised of the possibility.
Subject to the following Sections, each party’s aggregate liability arising out of or relating to this Agreement is limited to the fees paid or payable by the Customer in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.
32.3Enhanced limit for data protection claims. For claims arising from Agentic Learning’s breach of Section 11.3, Section 12, or Section 13.2, the aggregate limit is the greater of three times the fees paid or payable in the twelve months preceding the event, or the amount stated in the Order Form. Agentic Learning maintains cyber liability insurance intended to respond to claims of this nature.
32.4Matters outside any limit. No limit applies to a party’s indemnification obligations, breach of confidentiality, breach by the Customer of Sections 18, 19, 20, or 21, an obligation assumed under an executed Data Protection Agreement, gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or the Customer’s payment obligations.
32.5The limitations in this Section are an agreed allocation of risk between commercially sophisticated parties, are reflected in the fees, and apply notwithstanding the failure of any limited remedy of its essential purpose.
33. Insurance
33.1Agentic Learning maintains commercial general liability, technology errors and omissions, and cyber liability insurance in amounts consistent with industry practice for services of this type, and furnishes certificates of insurance, and additional insured or waiver of subrogation endorsements where required, on request.
33.2Agentic Learning will notify the Customer of cancellation or material reduction of the cyber liability coverage during the term.
34. Compliance with Laws
34.1Each party will comply with the laws applicable to its performance, including export control, economic sanctions, and anti-corruption requirements. The Customer will not export or re-export the Services in violation of applicable law.
34.2Where required for a governmental Customer, Agentic Learning will furnish the certifications and verifications that jurisdiction requires of its contractors.
34.3Agentic Learning maintains policies prohibiting bribery, kickbacks, and improper payments, and requires its personnel and subcontractors to observe them.
35. Accessibility
35.1Agentic Learning designs and tests the Services with reference to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and furnishes a current accessibility conformance report on request.
35.2Agentic Learning acknowledges the Customer’s obligations under Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act, and will work with the Customer to remediate reported accessibility barriers within a period reasonable to the severity of the barrier.
36. Change of Control
36.1Agentic Learning will notify the Customer of a merger, acquisition, consolidation, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets within sixty (60) days of closing, with written assurance that the successor assumes the obligations of this Agreement and of any Data Protection Agreement.
36.2Where a Data Protection Agreement confers a termination right on the Customer in respect of a successor, that right is preserved and this Section does not limit it.
36.3Where the Customer undergoes a change of control resulting in control by a developer of a Competing Product, Agentic Learning may terminate this Agreement on thirty (30) days’ notice and refund prepaid unused fees.
37. Publicity and References
37.1Neither party will use the other’s name, logo, or marks in publicity without prior written consent. Agentic Learning may identify the Customer in a customer list unless the Customer notifies it otherwise.
37.2Neither party will characterize the terms of this Agreement publicly without the other’s consent.
38. Equitable Relief
38.1The Customer acknowledges that a breach of Sections 18, 19, 20, 21, or 27 would cause Agentic Learning irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy.
38.2Each party may seek injunctive and other equitable relief without posting bond and without proof of actual damages in respect of a breach of confidentiality or of intellectual property rights. Remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive.
39. Dispute Resolution
39.1Before initiating proceedings, the parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute through escalation to senior representatives for thirty (30) days, except where injunctive relief is sought under Section 38.
39.2This Agreement is governed by the law of the State of Texas without regard to conflict of laws principles. Where the Customer is a governmental entity, the law and venue of the Customer’s jurisdiction apply.
40. Notices
40.1Notices are given in writing to the addresses stated in the Order Form, by personal delivery, recognized overnight courier, certified mail, or electronic mail with confirmation of receipt, and are effective on receipt. Notices of breach, termination, or indemnification must be given by a means other than electronic mail alone.
41. Government Customers
41.1Where the Customer is a governmental entity, no provision is intended to require it to waive sovereign or governmental immunity, to indemnify beyond the limits of its authority, to submit to arbitration where not permitted, or to create a debt in violation of its constitutional or statutory limits. Any such provision is read as modified to the extent necessary and does not affect the remainder.
41.2Nothing in Section 41.1 diminishes the Customer’s obligations under Sections 18 through 22, which the parties agree are within the authority of a governmental Customer to accept.
42. General Provisions
42.1Assignment. Neither party may assign this Agreement without consent, except to a successor in a merger or sale of substantially all assets, on notice, and subject to Section 36. Any purported assignment in breach of this Section is void.
42.2Independent contractors. The parties are independent contractors. Nothing creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship.
42.3Subcontractors. Agentic Learning may engage subcontractors and remains responsible for their performance and for their compliance with this Agreement.
42.4Force majeure. Neither party is liable for failure or delay caused by events beyond its reasonable control, excluding payment obligations. A party relying on this Section will notify the other and resume performance as soon as practicable.
42.5Severability. If a provision is unenforceable it is modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remainder continues in effect.
42.6Waiver. No delay or omission in exercising a right operates as a waiver, and no single or partial exercise precludes further exercise.
42.7No third-party beneficiaries. This Agreement confers no rights on any person who is not a party. The rights of students and parents arise under applicable law and are enforced against the educational agency.
42.8Entire agreement. This Agreement, together with each Order Form and any executed Data Protection Agreement, is the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes prior understandings relating to its subject matter.
42.9Amendment. Agentic Learning may amend this Agreement on notice. For a Customer under an active Order Form, amendments take effect at renewal unless the Customer agrees earlier, and no amendment reducing the protections of Sections 11, 12, 13, 15, or 16 applies during a paid term without the Customer’s written agreement. No amendment binds a governmental Customer that requires amendments to be executed in writing.
42.10Counterparts. An Order Form may be executed in counterparts and by electronic signature, each of which is an original and together one instrument.
