3.13.1 Mutual Warranties. Each party represents and warrants that it will comply with all laws, rules, and regulations applicable to the exercise of its rights and performance of its obligations under this Agreement.
3.23.2 By Asana.
3.2.13.2.1 Service Warranties. Asana warrants during the applicable Subscription Term that: (a) the Service will materially conform to the applicable Documentation; and (b) Asana will not materially decrease the functionality of the Service. For any breach of the foregoing warranties, as Asana's sole liability and Customer's exclusive remedy, Asana will correct the non-conforming Service, and, if Asana is unable to correct the Service within a commercially reasonable time following receipt of written notice of breach, then Customer will be entitled to terminate the applicable Order Form and receive a refund of any prepaid, unused fees applicable to the remaining portion of the Subscription Term measured from the effective date of termination.
3.2.23.2.2 Professional Services Warranty. Asana warrants that the Professional Services will be performed in a professional and workmanlike manner using resources with the requisite skills, experience, and knowledge. For any breach of this warranty, as Asana's sole liability and Customer's exclusive remedy, Asana will, at its option (a) re-perform the applicable Professional Services that fail to meet this warranty, or (b) refund to Customer the fees paid for the non-conforming Professional Services.
3.2.33.2.3 Malicious Code. Asana warrants that the Service is free from, and Asana will not introduce, software viruses, worms, logic bombs, Trojan horses or other code, files, or scripts intended to do harm ("Malicious Code").

3.43.4 Disclaimer. Except as expressly provided for in this Agreement, Asana does not warrant uninterrupted or error-free operation of the Service or that Asana will correct all defects or prevent third party disruptions or unauthorized third party access. These warranties are the exclusive warranties from Asana and replace all other warranties, including the implied warranties or conditions of satisfactory quality, merchantability, non-infringement, and fitness for a particular purpose. Asana warranties will not apply if there has been misuse, modification, damages not caused by Asana, or failure to comply with instructions provided by Asana. Each party disclaims all liability for any harm or damages caused by any third-party hosting providers. Asana makes beta, trial, proof of concept, and "sandbox" versions of the Service available as-is without warranties of any kind.
4.14.1 Payment. Customer will pay all undisputed amounts due under the applicable Order Form within thirty (30) days of invoice date. If Customer disputes any part of an invoice in good faith, Customer will pay the undisputed part and provide Asana with notice and detail of the dispute no later than the invoice due date. Amounts due are payable in the currency set forth in the applicable invoice and are non-cancelable and non-refundable unless otherwise provided in this Agreement. For customers located outside of the United States, Asana may require that payment be made to the bank account of a local Asana Affiliate. Customer is responsible for providing complete and accurate billing information to Asana, including the purchase order number at the time of purchase if Customer requires one. Asana reserves the right to suspend Customer's account in the event that Customer's account becomes overdue and is not brought current within ten (10) business days following notice. Unpaid amounts may be subject to interest at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum permitted by law plus collection costs. Suspension will not relieve Customer's obligation to pay amounts due. For transactions where Customer is permitted to make payment via credit card, Customer agrees that, if eligible, Asana may update Customer's payment information through the use of account refresher services provided by third party payment processors.
4.24.2 End User Subscriptions. Subscription fees are based on annual or monthly periods (or pro rata portions of such periods, calculated on a daily basis) that begin on the Subscription start date and each annual or monthly anniversary of the start date. Subscriptions to the Service are sold in tiers based on the number of End Users. Customer may add End Users to their Subscription at any time on written notice to Asana (email notice acceptable), however the number of End Users acquired under a Subscription cannot be decreased during the applicable Subscription Term. Asana reserves the right to calculate the total number of End Users on a periodic basis, and, if such number exceeds Customer's current plan size, Asana reserves the right to invoice Customer for the tier that corresponds to the number of End Users on a pro rata basis for the remaining months in Customer's then-current annual Subscription Term, so that all End User Subscription Terms are coterminous. Asana reserves the right to revise fee rates and/or the billable amount structure for the Service at any time and will provide Customer with notice pursuant to Section 11.2 (Notices) below of any such changes at least twenty (20) days prior. Asana may charge Customer the then-current pricing for the applicable Subscription if the number of End Users is modified and/or if Customer changes its Subscription plan.
4.34.3 Taxes. Any fees charged to Customer are exclusive of taxes. Except for those taxes based on Asana's net income, Customer will be responsible for all applicable taxes in connection with this Agreement including, but not limited to, sales, use, excise, value-added, goods and services, consumption, and other similar taxes or duties. If any withholding is required by law, Customer will pay Asana any additional amounts necessary to ensure that the net amount that Asana receives, after any such withholding, equals the amount Asana would have received if no withholding had been applied. Upon request, Customer will provide documentation showing that the withheld amounts have been paid to the relevant taxing authority. Asana's failure to charge appropriate tax due to incomplete or incorrect information provided by Customer will not relieve Customer of its obligations under this Section 4.3 (Taxes). If Customer is exempt from certain taxes, Customer will provide proof of such exemption to Asana without undue delay upon execution of the applicable Order Form.
4.44.4 Auto-renewal. Customer agrees that its Subscription will automatically renew on an annual or monthly basis depending on Customer's Subscription (the "Renewal Date"). Customer authorizes Asana to automatically charge Customer for the applicable fees on or after the Renewal Date unless the Subscription has been terminated or cancelled in accordance with this Agreement. If Customer wishes to reduce the number of End Users in its Subscription, it must do so prior to the Renewal Date. Customer must cancel its Subscription prior to the Renewal Date in order to avoid billing of the next period's Subscription fees. Customer can cancel its Subscription anytime online by going into its account settings and following the instructions provided. If Customer chooses to cancel its Subscription during the Subscription Term, Customer may use the Service until the end of Customer's then-current Subscription Term or renewal period, but will not be issued a refund for the most recently (or any previously) charged fees.
5.15.1 Term. This Agreement commences on the Effective Date and will remain in effect until all Subscriptions to the Service granted in accordance with this Agreement have expired or been terminated, or this Agreement is otherwise terminated in accordance with its terms.
5.25.2 Termination for Cause. Either party may terminate this Agreement and any Order Form under this Agreement: (a) upon thirty (30) days written notice if the other party is in material breach of this Agreement and fails to cure such breach within the notice period, except that termination will take effect upon receipt of notice in the event of a breach of Section 2.4 (Acceptable Use Terms); or (b) if the other party ceases its business operations or becomes subject to insolvency proceedings and the proceedings are not dismissed within sixty (60) days.
5.35.3 Effect of Termination. Upon expiration or termination of this Agreement for any reason, all Subscriptions and any other rights granted to Customer under this Agreement will immediately terminate, and Customer will immediately cease all use of the Service. Upon any termination by either party pursuant to Section 5.2 (Termination for Cause), Asana will refund to Customer a prorated amount of prepaid, unused fees applicable to the remaining portion of the Subscription Term measured from the effective date of termination. In no event will any termination relieve Customer of the obligation to pay any fees accrued or payable to Asana for the Service or Professional Services in the period prior to the effective date of termination. Any terms that by their nature extend beyond the Agreement termination remain in effect until fulfilled and apply to successors and assignees.
5.45.4 Treatment of Customer Data Following Expiration or Termination. Customer agrees that following expiration or termination of this Agreement, Asana may immediately deactivate Customer's account(s) associated with the Agreement. Asana will make Customer Data available to Customer for export in accordance with the Documentation as long as Asana receives written notice within thirty (30) days after the effective date of expiration or termination from Customer regarding its intent to import such Customer Data. After such thirty (30) day period, Asana will have no obligation to retain Customer Data and will thereafter, unless legally prohibited, be entitled to delete all Customer Data in its systems or otherwise in its possession or under its control. Subject to any limitations in Customer's Subscription plan, upon Customer's request in our Help Center, Asana shall, within one-hundred and eighty (180) days of receipt of such request, securely destroy all Customer Data from its systems; provided that all back-ups shall be deleted within thirty (30) days after such one-hundred and eighty (180) day period.
6.16.1 Definition of Confidential Information.
