3.2

Subscription Plans

OAG makes the Platform available under different Subscription Plans, including a Free Tier. Each plan determines the features and usage entitlements available to Customer and the applicable fees. Current Subscription Plans are described on OAG’s website and within the Platform. OAG may update the features available under any Subscription Plan at any time. OAG will provide existing subscribers with reasonable prior notice (usually at least 30 days) of any reduction in features that would materially affect their current use, or of any increase in fees.

3.3

Enterprise

4.1

Customer agrees to use the Platform and Data only for lawful purposes and in accordance with this Agreement. Customer must not:

  1. use the Platform or Data for any criminal, fraudulent, or unlawful activity;
  2. use the Data, or incorporate the Data into any product or service that is designed, marketed, sold or intended for use, as:
    • an end user’s sole method of ICAO GADSS (Global Aeronautical Distress and Safety System) flight-tracking compliance; or
    • part of any system, product or service that supports or makes critical or navigation-based decisions for the purposes of flight following, flight tracking or flight dispatch, or that directly impacts the safety, operation or management of a flight;
  3. use the Data within any product or service that is designed, marketed, sold, intended for use by, or for the benefit of a competitor of OAG, and/or identify market trends to leverage against OAG’s business;
  4. remove, alter, or obscure any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices from the Platform or Data;
  5. download, extract, scrape, cache or otherwise reproduce all or any part of the Data for placement in a secondary database, for the purpose of creating a database or dataset that substitutes for, or reproduces the substance of, the Data or the Platform, or for supply to third parties;
  6. use any automated system, bot, or similar tool to extract data from the Platform outside of OAG’s authorised API access;
  7. introduce any malicious code or software into the Platform;
  8. interfere with another person’s use of the Platform, or with the security, integrity, or availability of the Platform or its underlying networks;

  10. attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Platform, its systems, or any associated networks; or
  11. use the Platform in a manner that exceeds the usage limits of Customer’s Subscription Plan, except through additional usage purchased in accordance with clause 5.

Commercial Use

In addition to clause 3.1 and notwithstanding clause 4.1(e), commercial use and the creation of derivative works from Data sourced via the Platform is permitted at each subscription level in line with the limitation specified below, and in conjunction with these Terms of Service and any other legal notices as documented within the Platform, including but not limited to specified caching restrictions.

Data Resale and Manipulation

Customer is prohibited from reselling, transferring, redistributing, lending, leasing, sublicensing or manipulating raw Data accessed via the Platform. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Selling or transferring datasets which only contain raw OAG Data.
  • Manipulating, modifying, or obfuscating any OAG Data in an attempt to materially change the raw, original content and integrity of the Data, or mask the origins of the Data sourced from the Platform.

Unauthorised Data Storage

Customer is prohibited from storing the Data accessed via the Platform in any unsecured environment.

Notwithstanding the above, Customer is entitled to enrich and create derivative data set from the Data for commercial purposes, subject to such enrichment and creation will be done by the Customer by merging the Data with other data sources, adding value to the Data and/or the Data itself must not be the material component of the derivative product.

4.2

Customer may use OAG Data with an AI service only to the extent strictly necessary for the Permitted Usage and only where Customer has a written agreement with the AI provider, including any relevant sub-processors, that: (a) prohibits the use of OAG Data and any inputs or outputs containing OAG Data, for training, fine tuning, testing, and validation; (b) limits retention of OAG Data and any such inputs or outputs to the minimum period strictly necessary to provide the service and enables deletion; (c) prohibits onward disclosure except to sub-processors bound by equivalent written obligations and only as necessary to provide the service; and (d) requires appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect OAG Data. A Customer relying on an AI provider’s standard published enterprise or API terms that meet the substantive requirements of this clause 4.2 is treated as satisfying the written-agreement requirement, and evidence may take the form of identifying the provider and applicable terms. Customer must not upload OAG Data to any AI tool or service that does not meet the requirements of this clause 4.2. Customer must not use OAG Data to train or develop any model. Customer may create embeddings, vector stores or indexes, solely to enable retrieval within an Approved AI Service used exclusively for the Permitted Usage, provided such representations are not shared with third parties and are deleted on termination of this Agreement. Any output that reproduces, materially incorporates or enables reconstruction of OAG Data shall be treated as OAG Data. On OAG’s reasonable request, Customer shall promptly provide reasonable documentary evidence of compliance with this clause 4.2, including the applicable contractual restrictions and retention or deletion settings. Any breach of this clause 4.2 shall be deemed a material breach of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, should Customer wish to use the OAG Data in an AI tool outside of the current terms of this Agreement, Customer should contact OAG to enter into further discussions.

4.3

OAG reserves the right to monitor and audit usage patterns and enforce compliance with the specified usage limits and limitations, for the purpose of analysis, auditing, and improving the Platform and Data. OAG reserves the right to investigate suspected violations of clause 4 and to suspend or terminate Customer’s access if OAG reasonably believes a violation has occurred or is ongoing. OAG will not use Customer Content to train or fine-tune generalised AI models without the customer’s consent; OAG may use inputs and outputs to operate, secure, troubleshoot and improve the Platform, with content de-identified or aggregated where practicable.

5. Fees and Payment

5.1

6. Intellectual Property

6.1
Ownership and all intellectual property rights in the Platform and Data or any information therein, including but not limited to software, code, documentation, patents, design rights, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets and proprietary know-how, are and shall remain the sole property of OAG and its licensors. All rights, title, and interest in and to the Platform and Data not expressly granted under this Agreement are reserved by OAG and its licensors.
6.2
Customer shall treat any methodology used to generate or calculate the output, as strictly confidential and shall not disclose it to any third party without OAG’s prior written consent.

7.2
Each party agrees to: (i) keep the other’s Confidential Information strictly confidential; (ii) use it only as necessary to exercise rights or fulfil obligations under this Agreement; and (iii) apply at least the same degree of care it applies to its own confidential information, and in no event less than reasonable care.
7.3
Confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available without fault of the receiving party; (b) was rightfully known to the receiving party prior to disclosure; (c) is rightfully disclosed by a third party without restriction; or (d) is required to be disclosed by applicable law or court order, provided the receiving party gives reasonable prior written notice and cooperates to seek confidential treatment.
7.4
Each party acknowledges that a breach of clause 7 may cause irreparable harm for which monetary damages would be an inadequate remedy, and that the non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek injunctive or other equitable relief.

8. Data Protection

8.1
Each party agrees to comply with all applicable data protection laws in connection with its activities under this Agreement, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
8.2

To the extent OAG processes personal data on behalf of the Customer:

(a) in connection with provision of the Platform, the parties agree to the Data Processing Addendum, available on the Platform, on terms consistent with applicable law. As per OAG’s privacy policy, available on OAG’s website, https://www.oag.com/privacy-notice describes how OAG collects and handles personal data; and

(b) in connection with the submission of Customer Content, the Parties agree to the Data Processing Addendum, attached hereto, on terms consistent with applicable laws.

9. Warranties and Disclaimer

9.1
Customer warrants that: (i) it has full authority to enter into this Agreement and perform its obligations; (ii) its use of the Platform and Data will comply with all applicable laws, including Sanctions; and (iii) Customer is entering into this Agreement in the course of its trade, business, craft or profession and acknowledges that the Platform and Data are made available for personal or business use only. To the extent that Customer is nonetheless acting as a consumer, Customer expressly consents to the immediate commencement of the supply of the OAG Data and acknowledges that, once that supply has begun, Customer’s statutory right of withdrawal (cancellation) is lost.
9.2
Customer warrants that Customer: (i) is not a Sanctioned Person; (ii) will not make available the Platform or Data to a Sanctioned Person; and (iii) will not engage in any activities or conduct that could cause OAG to breach Sanctions. Customer undertakes to promptly report to OAG any suspected breach of the foregoing warranties.
9.3
The Platform and Data are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. OAG and its licensors disclaim all representations, warranties and conditions, express, implied or statutory, including any warranty of satisfactory quality, merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement, all of which are excluded to the fullest extent permitted by law. OAG does not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted or error-free. Customer assumes all risk for any results it obtains by or as a result of using the Platform and Data.

10. Limitation of Liability

10.1
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will OAG or its licensors be liable to Customer for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or exemplary damages, including without limitation loss of profits, revenue, data, or business opportunity, arising out of or related to this Agreement or Customer’s use of or inability to use the Platform or Data, even if OAG has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
10.2
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, OAG’s total aggregate liability to paying Customer for all claims arising under or in connection with this Agreement shall not exceed the greater of: (a) the total fees paid by Customer to OAG in the twelve months preceding the claim; or (b) one hundred pounds sterling (£100). This clause 10.2 applies only in respect of Data for which fees are payable.
10.3
For non-paying Customers. Where OAG provides any Data on a free, trial, evaluation, beta or other non-charge basis (a “Non-Paying Customer”), the Data is provided as per clause 9.3. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, OAG shall have no liability of any kind to a Non-Paying Customer (whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise) for any loss or damage arising out of or in connection with the Data, and the Non-Paying Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy is to cease using it. For the avoidance of doubt, the cap in clause 10.2 does not apply to Non-Paying Customers, whose entitlement is governed exclusively by this clause 10.3.
10.4
Nothing in this Agreement limits or excludes liability of OAG and/or Customer for: (a) death or personal injury caused by negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (c) either party’s indemnification or Data Protection obligations; and (d) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

11. Indemnification

11.2
Except as expressly stated elsewhere in the Agreement, OAG shall indemnify, defend and hold Customer harmless from and against any and all liability, damage, loss or expense (including reasonable legal fees and expenses of litigation) incurred by or imposed upon Customer in connection with any Claim to the extent arising out of or related to a Claim for (i) OAG’s breach of applicable laws or regulations or (ii) infringement of any third-party intellectual property rights by Customer’s use of the Platform and Data pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. OAG shall not have any responsibility or liability for any Claim if (a) the use or activity alleged to be infringing is not a Permitted Usage, (b) such Claim results from (1) any modification or development of the Platform and Data by Customer or a third party without OAG’s prior written approval, or (2) Customer’s combination or use of the Platform and Data with software, services or products not provided by OAG under this Agreement, or (c) Customer does not notify OAG of the Claim within 30 days of becoming aware of it.
