AW is committed to maintaining the integrity of the MAP (Minimum Advertised Price) and Unilateral Pricing policies as set forth by our Brand partners. To ensure compliance with these pricing structures, the following terms apply:

1. Automatic Compliance: AW automatically updates your website to align with MAP and Unilateral Pricing structures provided by Brands. This feature is intended to assist in maintaining compliance with these pricing policies.
2. User Modifications and Special Offers: While users have the ability to modify prices or offer specials on their website, such changes must adhere to the MAP and Unilateral Pricing guidelines established by the Brands.
3. AW’s Right to Enforce: In instances where AW is notified of, or becomes aware of, pricing infractions that violate MAP or Unilateral Pricing policies, AW reserves the right to take one or more of the following actions:
   • Automatically adjust your website’s pricing to comply with MAP or Unilateral Pricing guidelines.
   • Temporarily disable the display of the Brand in violation on your website.
   • Disable the pricing display feature on your website entirely.
4. Notification of Enforcement Actions: Whenever AW takes any enforcement action or becomes aware of an infraction, as described above, we will notify you of the infraction and the action taken or that will be taken. This notification serves as an alert to the specific compliance issue and as a record of AW’s enforcement action.
5. Your Responsibility: It is your responsibility to stay informed about and comply with MAP and Unilateral Pricing policies of the Brands you feature on your website. AW’s enforcement actions are intended to support, but not replace, your active management of pricing in accordance with these policies.
6. Handling Continued Infractions: In the event of continued or repeated violations of MAP or Unilateral Pricing policies, or if your actions are deemed to be detrimental to the image or interests of the Brand, the following measures may be taken:
   • Access Restriction: AW, in conjunction with the concerned Brand, reserves the right to permanently remove access to the Brand’s products and data from your site.
   • Termination of Service: In severe cases, such as refusal to comply with pricing policies, repeated violations, or actions that significantly harm a Brand’s image, AW, at its discretion and in agreement with the Brand, may terminate your website service entirely.

In each case of continued infraction, you will be notified of the specific concerns and the impending actions. This clause is intended to protect the integrity and reputation of both the Brands and the Aftermarket Websites® platform, ensuring a fair and compliant online marketplace for all participants.

G. Confidentiality

1. “Confidential Information” shall include, but shall not be limited to, any and all information associated with a party’s business that is not publicly known, including, but not limited to, specific business information; technical processes and formulas; software; customer lists and prospective customer lists; names, addresses, and other information regarding customers and prospective customers; product designs; sales, costs, price lists, and other unpublished financial information; business plans and marketing data; and any other confidential and proprietary information, whether or not marked as confidential or proprietary. AW’s Confidential Information includes all information that you receive relating to us, or to the Services, that is not known to the general public, including information related to our security program and practices.
2. Each party agrees to use the other party’s Confidential Information solely as necessary for performing its obligations under these Terms of Service and in accordance with any other obligations in these Terms of Service, including this Section F. Each party agrees that it shall take all reasonable steps, or at least steps that are substantially equivalent to the steps it takes to protect its own proprietary information, to prevent the duplication, disclosure, or use of any such Confidential Information, other than
   • by or to its employees, agents, and subcontractors who must have access to such Confidential Information to perform such party’s obligations hereunder, who each shall treat such Confidential Information as provided in Section F, and who are each subject to obligations of confidentiality to such party that are at least as stringent as those contained herein; or
   • as required by any law, regulation, or order of any court of proper jurisdiction over the parties and the subject matter contained in these Terms of Service, provided that, if legally permitted, the receiving party shall give the disclosing party prompt written notice and use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such disclosure is accorded confidential treatment.
3. Confidential Information shall not include any information that the receiving party can prove (i.) was already in the public domain, or was already known by or in the possession of the receiving party, at the time of disclosure of such information; (ii.) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of or reference to the other party’s Confidential Information, and without breaching any provisions of these Terms of Service; or (iii.) is thereafter rightly obtained by the receiving party from a source other than the disclosing party without breaching any provision of these Terms of Service.

H. Payment of Fees

1. You will pay the Fees applicable to your Service subscription.
2. You must keep a valid payment method on file with us to pay for all Fees. AW will charge applicable Fees to any valid payment method that you authorize (“Authorized Payment Method”), and AW will continue to charge the Authorized Payment Method for applicable Fees until the Services are terminated, and any and all outstanding Fees have been paid in full. All Fees are in U.S. dollars, and all payments shall be in U.S. currency.
3. Support & Subscription Fees are paid in advance and will be billed in 30-day intervals (each such date being a “Billing Date”). Fees will appear on an invoice that will be sent to the Website Owner via the email address provided. Your first payment will begin exactly 30 days after you pay your initial setup fee, regardless of whether your website is complete. You are responsible for working with AW to ensure the timely completion of your website.
4. If we are not able to process payment of Fees using an Authorized Payment Method, we will make a second attempt to process payment using the Authorized Payment Method three (3) days following our first attempt. If the second attempt is not successful, we will send an email to the Website Owner’s email address identifying the second failed payment attempt. Following the submission of such second email, you will have three (3) days to respond with a replacement payment method. Thereafter, upon receipt of the replacement payment method, we will make a final attempt for payment. If our final attempt is not successful, we may suspend and revoke access to your Account and the Services. Further and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, AW reserves the right to terminate any Account that fails to make payment within 30 days from and after the Billing Date. Following any such termination, your Account will be reactivated only upon your full payment of all outstanding Fees and all other charges within 60 days from Billing Date and upon your performance of any and all such other requirements or obligations that AW may impose. All Website information and data will be permanently deleted by us unless you pay a reinstatement fee (along with all other outstanding Fees and/or obligations) within 60 days of termination. Further and notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, AW, acting in its sole and absolute discretion, also expressly reserves the right to terminate your Account and to cease providing Services to you under your agreement with AW if you fail to satisfy any outstanding Fees due and owed to us within 60 days from the Billing Date.
5. You are responsible for all applicable taxes that arise from or as a result of the use of your AW Services. To the extent that AW charges these taxes, they are calculated using the tax rates that apply based on the billing address you provide to us. If you are not charged taxes by AW, you are responsible for determining if taxes are payable, and if so, self-remitting taxes to the appropriate tax authorities in your jurisdiction.
6. AW will not provide refunds for any reason whatsoever.

The provisions set forth herein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective legal representatives, heirs, successors, and permitted assigns. In the event attorneys’ fees or other costs are incurred by either party in securing performance of any of the covenants or obligations contained herein, or in establishing damages for the breach of the agreement between us, or in obtaining any other appropriate relief, whether by way of prosecution or defense, the prevailing party will recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred. The provisions of these Terms of Service contain the entire agreement between us. All prior written and oral agreements, if any, are hereby expressly revoked.
