(T&M Technical Service Offerings)
Updated : January 10, 2023
This Statement of Work ('SOW') is entered into by and between the parties noted on the ordering documents referencing this SOW (the 'Order Form') and describes the services to be performed by Snowflake under this SOW ('Technical Services'). This SOW shall come into effect as of the effective date of the Order Form (the 'SOW Effective Date') and shall be incorporated by reference thereto. For the purposes of this SOW, 'Customer' means the party that is purchasing Technical Services.
Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary hereunder or in the Order Form, where Technical Services are purchased through a Snowflake authorized distributor or reseller ('Reseller'): (a) the performance of the Snowflake obligations hereunder shall be performed through such Reseller; (b) no privity of contract is established between Snowflake or any of its Affiliates and Customer, and this SOW is not deemed an agreement (separate or otherwise) between Snowflake or any of its Affiliates and Customer; and (c) such Reseller is responsible for any claims or damages relating to, or arising out of, this SOW.
A. Description of Technical Services
During the applicable Term, Snowflake agrees to provide Customer with the Technical Services identified in the Order Form subject to the terms and conditions in this SOW and the applicable quantities, pricing, hours, time period(s), and other scope limits set forth in the Order Form. Descriptions and additional terms for specific Technical Service offerings are set forth in the Service Appendix attached to this SOW (the ' Service Appendix '), which is incorporated into this SOW by reference. All Technical Services will be delivered remotely unless otherwise specified in the Order Form or otherwise agreed to in writing by the parties. For onsite delivery (if applicable), Customer is responsible for providing the appropriate facilities for the delivery of all Technical Services, including but not limited to (as applicable), Internet connectivity, presentation equipment and workspaces.
B. Payments and Expenses
- Fees. The fees for each Technical Services offering are specified in the Order Form, and Customer agrees to pay such fees pursuant to the payment terms set forth on the Order Form. Fees will be billed to Customer on the SOW Effective Date unless otherwise specified on the applicable Order Form. Any applicable discounts, including any volume purchase agreement discounts, must be reflected in the Order Form to be effective and will apply to that Order Form only. Without limiting its other available remedies, Snowflake may suspend performance of Technical Services until payments are made current, subject to any applicable invoice dispute provision in the Agreement.
- Expenses. If applicable, the parties will work together to plan reasonable travel, hotel and other expenses required in connection with the provision of the Technical Services described in this SOW. Unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, any costs attributable to such travel, hotel and other expenses shall be invoiced by Snowflake and payable by Customer in addition to the applicable fees.
- Billing and Ship-To Information. The Order Form will specify applicable bill-to and ship-to addresses. Any onsite Technical Services will be delivered to the on-site address provided by the Reseller. If no address is provided, any onsite Technical Services will be provided to the Billing address unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.
- Purchase Orders. Any reference to a PO in the Order Form or this SOW is solely for Customer's internal purposes only and shall have no effect on Snowflake's right to collect amounts due. Snowflake rejects, and in the future is deemed to have rejected, any PO terms to the extent they add to or conflict in any way with the Agreement, the Order Form or this SOW, and any such additional or conflicting terms will have no effect.
C. Scheduling and Term
- Term. The 'Term' for each Technical Service offering governed by this SOW is set forth in the Service Appendix. Each Technical Service offering will be provided only during the applicable Term. Customer shall not be due any credit or refund for any Technical Services not consumed during the applicable Term, including without limitation for unused hours, training, credits, or packages. This SOW expires on the earlier of completion of the Technical Service offering(s) or expiration of the Term(s) for the Technical Service offering(s).
- Scheduling. Technical Services are provided only during regular business hours (8am to 5pm local time), Monday through Friday (holidays excluded). The Service Appendix includes additional information and terms on scheduling and rescheduling Technical Services.
- Available Hours. For Technical Services performed on a time and materials basis (whether pre-paid or in arrears), the Technical Services will be subject to the availability of hours specified in the Order Form, and additional hours may be required for completion of all activities. If additional hours are required, the parties must mutually approve and execute a Change Order.
D. Snowflake Access
- The parties agree to comply with the provisions and terms in the applicable Service Appendix regarding access to Customer Data and Customer Assets.
E. Additional Terms.
This SOW shall be governed by the Agreement as defined herein. The 'Agreement' means the agreement designated in the Order Form. If no Agreement is designated on the Order Form, the terms and conditions of the Snowflake Technical Services Addendum located at https://www.snowflake.com/legal-gov/ ('Addendum') shall apply. If the Agreement does not expressly include terms applicable to Snowflake's provision of Technical Services, then for purposes of this SOW, the Agreement shall also incorporate by this reference, the Addendum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where Technical Services are purchased through a Reseller, all Snowflake obligations in the 'Addendum' are deemed obligations of such Reseller, and the Addendum is not an agreement (separate or otherwise) between Customer and Snowflake. In the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the terms and conditions of this SOW and the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this SOW shall govern with respect to the subject matter of this SOW only. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this SOW shall have the meaning defined in the Order Form, Agreement or Addendum (as applicable). This SOW may not be modified or amended except in a written agreement signed by a duly authorized representative of each party. For clarity, Customer's use of the Service is governed by the agreement it entered into with Snowflake or a Reseller for the purchase and use of such Service and not this SOW.
- This SOW (including any attached Exhibits) may not be modified or amended except in a written amendment or change order signed by a duly authorized representative of Snowflake and Customer (' Change Order '). Change Orders may result in additional costs and/or modified terms, as mutually agreed by the parties.
- Customer will ensure that a project manager is assigned for the duration of the project who will coordinate meeting schedules and availability of Customer personnel reasonably needed for the delivery of the Technical Services. Customer further agrees to reasonably cooperate with Snowflake and to provide access to personnel, materials and information as reasonably requested. Customer agrees to use a secure sharing method to share any confidential documents (e.g., network diagrams).
- All electronic and/or hard copy versions of any materials or other deliverables provided as part the Technical Services are provided only for Customer's internal use in support of such Customer's use of the Snowflake Service. Without limiting applicable license restrictions in the Agreement, these materials and other deliverables may not be distributed, resold or sublicensed, used to replicate or attempt to perform the Technical Services for others, or used to develop or attempt to develop any of the products or services described therein. The Service Appendix may contain additional terms and restrictions related to specific materials or other deliverables provided as part of the Technical Services, which will apply to those deliverables. The Technical Services and any tools, materials and other deliverables provided or developed hereunder are Snowflake Technology, and Snowflake shall retain all rights (including intellectual property rights), title and interest in and to such items, notwithstanding anything in the Agreement to the contrary. Materials and other deliverables provided as part of Technical Services are not subject to any maintenance, support or updates.
- The delivery of Technical Services may not be recorded, filmed, streamed or otherwise captured in video or audio format by anyone other than Snowflake. Such recordings, if any, will be deemed to be Snowflake's Confidential Information.
- The details of how Snowflake will carry out the Technical Services are exclusively set forth in this SOW and the related Order Form. Customer will be solely responsible for determining if, how, and when it will implement, test, release or deploy deliverables (including without limitation any recommendations or best practices) provided by Snowflake.
- Unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, Snowflake reserves the right to subcontract the Technical Services described in this SOW but will remain responsible for the performance of any subcontractors engaged in the delivery of the subcontracted Technical Services.
