(a) Service Suspension. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Respeecher reserves the right to suspend Customer's access to any portion or all of the Services (a "Service Suspension") if:

(i) Respeecher determines that Customer has violated Respeecher’s AUP.

(ii) Respeecher reasonably determines that (A) there is a threat or attack on any of the Respeecher IP; (B) Customer's use of the Respeecher IP disrupts or poses a security risk to the Respeecher IP or to any other customer or vendor of Respeecher; (C) Customer is using the Respeecher IP for fraudulent or illegal activities; (D) subject to applicable law, Customer has ceased to continue its business in the ordinary course, made an assignment for the benefit of creditors or similar disposition of its assets, or become the subject of any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution, or similar proceeding; or (E) Respeecher's provision of the Services to Customer is prohibited by applicable law.

(iii) Any vendor of Respeecher has suspended or terminated Respeecher's access to or use of any third-party services or products required to enable Customer to access the Services.

(v) Respeecher reasonably concludes that Customer’s account is being used to engage in denial of service attacks, spamming, or illegal activity, and/or use of Customer’s account with the Services is causing immediate, material, and/or ongoing harm to Respeecher or others. In the event Respeecher suspends access to the Services, Respeecher will use commercially reasonable efforts to limit the suspension to the offending portion of the Services and work with Customer to resolve the issues causing the suspension. Customer agrees that Respeecher shall not be liable to Customer nor to any third-party for any suspension of the Service under such circumstances as described in this Section.

Except when suspension is pursuant to Section 3(a)(i) or 3(a)(ii), in which case suspension shall be immediate, Respeecher shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide written notice of any Service Suspension to Customer and to provide updates regarding resumption of access to the Services following any Service Suspension. Except when suspension is pursuant to Section 3(a)(i) or 3(a)(ii), in which case no cure is possible, Respeecher shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume providing access to the Services as soon as reasonably possible after the event giving rise to the Services Suspension is cured. Respeecher will have no liability for any damage, liabilities, losses (including any loss of or profits), or any other consequences that Customer may incur as a result of a Service Suspension, and shall have no obligation to provide a refund or reinstate Customer’s access to the Service following a Service Suspension arising pursuant to Section 3(a)(i) or 3(a)(ii).
