Your Agreement with Google

This License Agreement for Google App Engine (the "Agreement") is made and
entered into by and between Google Inc., a Delaware corporation, with offices at
1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View 94043 ("Google") and the business
entity agreeing to these terms ("Customer"). This Agreement is effective as of
the date Customer clicks the "I Accept" button below (the "Effective Date"). If
you are accepting on behalf of Customer, you represent and warrant that: (i) if
you have full legal authority to bind Customer to this Agreement; (ii) you have
read and understand this Agreement; and (iii) you agree, on behalf of Customer,
to this Agreement. If you do not have the legal authority to bind Customer,
please do not click the "I Accept" button below. This Agreement governs
Customer's access to and use of the Service.
1. Licenses.

1.1 From Google to Customer. Subject to this Agreement, Google grants to
Customer a worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, non-exclusive,
terminable, limited license to (a) use the Service, (b) integrate the Service
into any Application and provide the Service, solely as integrated into the
Application, to users of the Application and (c) use any Software provided by
Google as part of the Service.

1.2 From Customer to Google. By submitting, posting, generating or displaying
any Application and/or Customer Data on or through the Service, Customer gives
Google a worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, non-exclusive,
terminable, limited license to reproduce, adapt, modify, translate, publish,
publicly perform, publicly display and distribute any Application and/or
including Customer Data for the sole purpose of enabling Google to provide
Customer with the Service in accordance with the Agreement.
Provision of the Service.

2.1 Console. Google will provide the Service to Customer. As part of receiving
the Service, Customer will have access to the Admin Console, through which
Customer may administer the Service.

2.2 Facilities and Data Transfer. All facilities used to store and process an
Application and Customer Data will adhere to reasonable security standards no
less protective than the security standards at facilities where Google processes
and stores its own information of a similar type. Google has implemented at
least industry standard systems and procedures to ensure the security and
confidentiality of an Application and Customer Data, protect against anticipated
threats or hazards to the security or integrity of an Application and Customer
Data, and protect against unauthorized access to or use of an Application and
Customer Content. Google may process and store an Application and Customer Data
in the United States or any other country in which Google or its agents maintain
facilities. By using the Service, Customer consents to this processing and
storage of an Application and Customer Data. The parties agree that Google is
merely a data processor.

2.3 Data Storage Selection.

    Data Storage. Customer may select via the Service whether the Core App
Engine End User Data will be stored permanently, at rest, in either the United
States or the European Union, and Google will store it accordingly ("App Engine
Data Location Setting"). If no selection is made, Core App Engine End User Data
will be stored permanently, at rest, in the United States.
    Transient Storage. Core App Engine End User Data may be stored transiently
or cached in any country in which Google or its agents maintain facilities
before reaching permanent storage.
    Limitations. No App Engine Data Location Setting will apply to Core App
Engine End User Data copied in another location or used with other Google
products and services (including any other Google Cloud Platform services). If
so, the Core App Engine End User Data will be processed and stored pursuant to
Section 2.2 of this Agreement.

2.4 Accounts. Customer must have an Account to use the Service, and is
responsible for the information it provides to create the Account, the security
of its passwords for the Account, and for any use of its Account. If Customer
becomes aware of any unauthorized use of its password or its Account, Customer
will notify Google as promptly as possible.

2.5 Privacy Policies. The Service is subject to Google's Privacy Policy. Changes
to the Privacy Policy will be made as stated in the applicable policy. In
addition, Google is enrolled in the U.S. Department of Commerce Safe Harbor
Program and will remain enrolled in this program or another replacement program
(or will adopt a compliance solution which achieves compliance with the terms of
Article 25 of Directive 95/46/EC) throughout the Term of the Agreement.

2.6 New Applications. Google may make new applications, tools, features or
functionality available from time to time through the Service, the use of which
may be contingent upon Customer's agreement to additional terms.

2.7 Modifications.

    To the Service. Subject to Section 9.4 (Termination for Convenience), Google
may make commercially reasonable Updates to the Service from time to time. If
Google makes a material change to the Service, Google will inform Customer,
provided that Customer has subscribed with Google to be informed about such
change.
    To the Agreement. Google may make changes to this Agreement, including
pricing from time to time. Unless otherwise noted by Google, material changes to
the Agreement will become effective 90 days after they are posted, except if the
changes apply to new functionality in which case they will be effective
immediately. If Customer does not agree to the revised Agreement, please stop
using the Service. Google will post any modification to this Agreement to the
Terms URL.

3. Payment Terms.

3.1 Free Quota. The Service is provided to Customer without charge up to the Fee
Threshold.

3.2 Online Billing. Google will issue an electronic bill to Customer for all
charges accrued above the Fee Threshold. Fees are solely based on Google's
measurements of Customer's use of the Service, may include monthly fees, and
Google's determination is final. For use above the Fee Threshold, Customer shall
be responsible for all Fees up to the amount set in the Account and shall pay
all Fees in U.S. Dollars or in such other currency as agreed to in writing by
the parties. Customer shall pay all Fees in accordance with the payment terms in
the Service FAQ.

3.3 Delinquent Payments. Late payments may bear interest at the rate of 1.5% per
month (or the highest rate permitted by law, if less). Google reserves the right
to suspend your Account for any late payments.

3.4 Taxes. Customer is responsible for any Taxes, and Customer will pay Google
for the Services without any reduction for Taxes. If Google is obligated to
collect or pay Taxes, the Taxes will be invoiced to Customer, unless Customer
provides Google with a timely and valid tax exemption certificate authorized by
the appropriate taxing authority. In some states the sales tax is due on the
total purchase price at the time of sale and must be invoiced and collected at
the time of the sale. If Customer is required by law to withhold any Taxes from
its payments to Google, Customer must provide Google with an official tax
receipt or other appropriate documentation to support such withholding payments.

3.5 Invoice Disputes & Refunds. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Customer
waives all claims relating to Fees unless claimed within sixty days after
charged (this does not affect any Customer rights with its credit card issuer).
Refunds (if any) are at the discretion of Google and will only be in the form of
credit for the Service. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Google to extend
credit to any party.
4. Customer Obligations.

4.1 Compliance. Customer is solely responsible for its Applications and Customer
Data, and for making sure its Applications or Customer Data comply with the
Acceptable Use Policy. Google reserves the right to review the Application or
Customer Data to ensure Customer's compliance with the Acceptable Use Policy.
Customer is responsible for ensuring all End Users comply with Customer's
obligations under the Agreement.

4.2 Privacy. Customer will protect the privacy and legal rights of its End Users
under all applicable laws and regulations, which includes a legally adequate
privacy notice communicated from Customer. Customer may have the ability to
access, monitor, use, or disclose Customer Data submitted by End Users through
the Service. Customer will obtain and maintain any required consents from End
Users to allow Customer's access, monitoring, use and disclosure of Customer
Data. Further, Customer will notify its End Users that any Customer Data
provided as part of the Service will be made available to a third party as part
of Google providing the Service.

4.3 Restrictions. Customer will not, and will not allow third parties under its
control to: (a) copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer,
decompile, translate, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to extract the source
code of the Service or any component thereof (subject to Section 4.4 below); (b)
use the Service for High Risk Activities; (c) sublicense, resell, or distribute
the Service or any component thereof separate from any integrated Application;
(d) use the Service to create, train, or improve (directly or indirectly) a
substantially similar product or service, including any other machine
translation engine; (e) create multiple Applications or Accounts to simulate or
act as a single Application or Account (respectively) or otherwise access the
Service in a manner intended to avoid incurring Fees; (f) use the Service to
operate or enable any telecommunications service or in connection with any
Application that allows End Users to place calls to or to receive calls from any
public 
switched telephone network; or (g) process or store any Customer Data that is
subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations maintained by the
Department of State. Customer acknowledges that the Service is not HIPAA
compliant and Customer is solely responsible for any applicable compliance with
HIPAA.

4.4 Open Source Components. Open source software licenses for components of the
Service released under an open source license constitute separate written
agreements. Open source software is listed in the Documentation. To the limited
extent the open source software licenses expressly supersede this Agreement, the
open source license instead governs Customer's agreement with Google for the
specific included open source components of the Service, or use of the Service
(as may be applicable).

4.5 Documentation. Google may provide Documentation for Customer's use of the
Service. The Documentation may specify restrictions (e.g. attribution of HTML
restrictions) on how the Applications may be built or the Service may be used
and Customer agrees to comply with any such restrictions specified.

4.6 DMCA Policy. Google provides information to help copyright holders manage
their intellectual property online, but Google cannot determine whether
something is being used legally or not without their input. Google responds to
notices of alleged copyright infringement and terminates accounts of repeat
infringers according to the process set out in the U.S. Digital Millennium
Copyright Act. If Customer thinks somebody is violating Customer's or its End
Users' copyrights and wants to notify Google, Customer can find information
about submitting notices, and Google's policy about responding to notices at
http://www.google.com/dmca.html.

4.7 Application and No Multiple Accounts, Bills. Any Application must have
material value independent from the Services. Google has no obligation to
provide multiple bills or Accounts to Customer under the Agreement.
5. Suspension and Removals.

5.1 Suspension/Removals. If Customer becomes aware that any Application or an
End User's use of an Application, or Customer Data violates the Acceptable Use
Policy, Customer will immediately suspend the Application, remove the applicable
Customer Data, or suspend access to an End User (as may be applicable). If
Customer fails to suspend or remove as noted in the prior sentence, Google may
specifically request that Customer do so. If Customer fails to comply with
Google's request to do so within twenty-four hours, then Google may suspend
Google accounts of the applicable End Users, disable the Application, and/or
disable the Account (as may be applicable) until such violation is corrected.

5.2 Emergency Security Issues. Despite the foregoing, if there is an Emergency
Security Issue, then Google may automatically suspend the offending End User
account, Application or the Account. Suspension will be to the minimum extent
required, and of the minimum duration, to prevent or terminate the Emergency
Security Issue. If Google suspends an End User account or the Application or
Account, for any reason, without prior notice to Customer, at Customer's
request, Google will provide Customer the reason for the suspension as soon as
is reasonably possible.
6. Intellectual Property Rights; Brand Features.

6.1 Intellectual Property Rights. Except as expressly set forth herein, this
Agreement does not grant either party any rights, implied or otherwise, to the
other's content or any of the other's intellectual property. As between the
parties, Customer owns all Intellectual Property Rights in any Application and
Customer Content, and Google owns all Intellectual Property Rights in the
Service.

6.2 Brand Features Limitation. If Customer wants to display Google Brand
Features in connection with its use of the Service, Customer must obtain written
permission from Google through process specified in the Trademark Guidelines.
For the sole purpose of providing the Service, Customer permits Google to
display any Brand Features that may appear in its Application. Any use of a
party's Brand Features will inure to the benefit of the party holding
Intellectual Property Rights to those Brand Features. A party may revoke the
other party's right to use its Brand Features pursuant to this Agreement with
written notice to the other and a reasonable period to stop the use.
7. Technical Support Service

7.1 By Customer. Customer is responsible for technical support of its
Application.

7.2 Deprecation Policy.

Google will announce if we intend to discontinue or make backwards incompatible
changes to this API or Service. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to
continue to operate that Service without these changes until the later of: (i)
one year after the announcement or (ii) April 20, 2015, unless (as Google
determines in its reasonable good faith judgment):

    required by law or third party relationship (including if there is a change
in applicable law or relationship), or
    doing so could create a security risk or substantial economic or material
technical burden.

This Deprecation Policy doesn't apply to versions, features, and functionality
labeled as "experimental."
8. Confidential Information.

8.1 Obligations. The recipient of the other party's Confidential Information
will not disclose the Confidential Information, except to Affiliates, employees,
agents, or professional advisors who need to know it and who have agreed in
writing (or in the case of professional advisors are otherwise bound) to keep it
confidential. The recipient will ensure that those people and entities use the
Confidential Information only to exercise rights and fulfill obligations under
this Agreement, while using reasonable care to keep it confidential. The
recipient may also disclose Confidential Information when required by law after
giving reasonable notice to the discloser if allowed by law. The recipient may
also disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by applicable
Legal Process; provided that the recipient uses commercially reasonable efforts
to: (i) promptly notify the other party of such disclosure before disclosing;
and (ii) comply with the other party's reasonable requests regarding its efforts
to 
oppose the disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subsections (i) and (ii)
above will not apply if the recipient determines that complying with (i) and
(ii) could: (a) result in a violation of Legal Process; (b) obstruct a
governmental investigation; and/or (c) lead to death or serious physical harm to
an individual. As between the parties, Customer is responsible for responding to
all third party requests concerning its use and its End Users' use of the
