Upon request from D-Wave, Customer will provide information and assistance reasonably requested by D-Wave, such as a GitHub ID, in order for D-Wave to verify Customer's compliance with this Section 3.2. In the event that Customer does not expressly grant an Open Source License in Customer Software, Customer will (and hereby does) grant a license to the Customer Software under the Apache License version 2.0.

2. "Anonymized Collected Data" includes anonymized Customer Data, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.4.

4. SERVICE OFFERINGS AND TERMS

4.1 Service Offerings. D-Wave will provide those Services that are expressly identified by D-Wave as being included in Customer’s Services at the time Customer accepts this Agreement. Customer may access and use only such Services, except that D-Wave may allow Customer to access other Services if requested by Customer, provided that such access is at D-Wave’s sole discretion and may be withdrawn at any time and for any reason. Such Services may include one or more of the following:

1. Computing Services: Access and use of D-Wave computing resources in the amount, and subject to the additional terms as set out in the applicable Service description (the "Computing Services"). Unless expressly specified otherwise in the applicable Service description, the type of computing resource (e.g. traditional, quantum or hybrid) as well as the characteristics of the computing resource (e.g. number of qubits, topology, connectivity, features) used to perform the Computing Services for Customer may be changed by D-Wave in its sole discretion. Customer will only have access to solvers that are then generally commercially available to all D-Wave customers for Computing Services in Customer’s jurisdiction governed by D-Wave’s standard Leap Terms and Conditions. Customer will not have access to any other solver, including but not limited to solvers in development and testing and custom solvers.
2. Software: Use of the D-Wave Software.
3. Customer Support: On-line, telephone or other forms of customer support.
4. Documentation: Access to D-Wave's standard Documentation applicable to the Services.
5. Community Forum: D-Wave may make available in its sole discretion a community forum (the "Community Forum"), which may be subject to additional terms and guidelines disclosed during sign-up/registration for the Community Forum and any associated code of conduct. The Community Forum is made available in D-Wave's sole discretion and may be suspended or discontinued at any time. Without limiting the foregoing, a User's access to the Community Forum can be revoked, limited or terminated by D-Wave if the User fails to comply with this Agreement and/or the applicable additional terms, guidelines and/or codes of conduct.

4.2 Additional Services. D-Wave and Customer may also agree to additional services (including professional services) which are mutually agreed to and expressly set out in an executed Order. Any such additional services are deemed to be Services hereunder and are subject to the terms of this Agreement and any additional terms ("Additional Terms") specific to such additional services set out in the applicable Order. In the event of any inconsistency between this Agreement and the Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will control.

4.3 Account Balance. Customer’s account will have an associated account balance (the “Balance”) which D-Wave will credit with an amount and with a frequency set out in an Order (or, if not specified in an Order, monthly). An Order may set out the amount to be credited to the Balance in any one of the following ways:

1. Expressly providing the amount of the credit;
2. Providing a certain quantity of access to one or more Services (excluding any Services to which Section 4.3(c) applies) in units other than credits (e.g. in units of time), in which case the amount to be credited to the Balance is equal to the amount the Customer would be debited for consuming that quantity of the one or more Services in its entirety; or
3. Providing for “Up to” a certain quantity of access for a Service, in which case the total amount to be credited to the Balance is equal to the amount that Customer would be debited for consuming that quantity of that Service alone (the “Single Service Amount”); if multiple Services are described this way, only the greatest Single Service Amount will apply.

If an Order sets out the amount to be credited in more than one of the above ways, then only the greatest one applies. D-Wave will debit the Balance as Customer uses the Services based on the rate for each Service as set out in the Order or, where no such rate is set out, at D-Wave’s then-current rate for the applicable Service. Rates for any new Service or new feature of a Service will be effective as soon as D-Wave posts updated rates on the Leap website or otherwise provides notice of such Service’s rates to Customer. D-Wave may increase rates for any existing Services set out in an Order by giving Customer at least 30 days’ prior notice. Any unused portion of the Balance may not be carried over from one month to another, has no cash value, and is not refundable.

4.4 Usage. The Services are subject to usage limits, including the limits set out in an Order, the Service descriptions, and Documentation (e.g. number of API calls, number of results, number of computing systems or computing equipment, units of time, rates for use). Customer acknowledges that D-Wave may monitor Customer’s usage of the Services and if Customer exceeds the applicable usage limits, including by depleting the Balance, then Customer may be required to purchase additional resources or services. If the necessary additional resources or services are not purchased by Customer then D-Wave may suspend Customer’s access to the Services. Where the usage limit for Computing Services is set out in units of time (such as hours), D-Wave will debit Customer’s Balance for use on a “per second” basis or, if it benefits Customer, on such other more-precise basis as D-Wave may determine from time to time in its sole discretion.

4.5 Prohibited Uses. Except with D-Wave's prior written consent, which may be withheld by D-Wave in its sole discretion, Customer will not engage, directly or indirectly, in any of the following acts (the "Prohibited Uses"):

1. decompile, extract, translate, decrypt, disassemble, or otherwise reverse engineer, create improvements, modifications or derivative works of, any portion of the D-Wave Software or any other D-Wave IP, or attempt to do any of the foregoing, except to the extent that such activity is expressly permitted by applicable law despite this contractual prohibition on such activity, in which case Customer will give D-Wave a detailed, written notice at least 30 days prior to engaging in such activity that describes the nature and extent of the contemplated activity. Notwithstanding Section 4.5(a), to the extent that the D-Wave Software made available to Customer contains any Jupyter notebooks (the "Notebooks"), during the Term Customer may, solely for the internal use of Customer and in connection with Customer’s use of the Services and not for distribution to any third party, create improvements, modifications or derivative works of any software code, equations, visualizations and narrative text contained within the Notebooks;
2. permit any lien, security interest or other encumbrance to attach to Customer's rights under this Agreement;
3. remove, alter, add, or obscure any intellectual property or other proprietary notice or other notice included in the D-Wave IP or otherwise displayed in connection with the Services;
4. use any portion of the Services or D-Wave IP for the benefit of any third party, and for greater clarity, Customer may only use the Services and the D-Wave IP for its own internal use, and notwithstanding any benefit to Customer, Customer may not:
   1. sell, rent, lease, distribute, sublicense, time share, provide service bureau services based on, or similarly exploit the Services or D-Wave IP;
   2. use any portion of the Services or D-Wave IP to provide, as a purpose of the Customer Software (as reasonably determined by D-Wave), the same or similar functions as the Services or use the Customer Software to compete with the products or businesses of D-Wave, including by providing wrapper access for any part of the Services to third parties;
   3. grant access to the Services, such as by sharing an access token, to anyone other than a User; or
   4. use the Services or D-Wave IP in the course of performing any service for third parties; for greater clarity, services prohibited under this Section 4.5(d)(4) include any service which may require the use of the Services or D-Wave IP (directly or indirectly, by any person) at any point from the time the third party makes a request for the service to the time the performance of the service concludes;
5. use any portion of the Services or D-Wave IP for any unlawful, fraudulent, illegal or inappropriate purpose (including in connection with gambling, obscenity, pornography, violence, misappropriation, unauthorized access or interference, viruses or harmful code, harassment, unsolicited or deceptive messages, or evading filters) or to disrupt, damage, interfere with or access in an unauthorized manner any server, network or other property or service of any person or entity;
6. use the Services or D-Wave IP to send commercial, fraudulent, obscene, defamatory, or illegal communications to any third party; or
7. use any portion of the Services or D-Wave IP in connection with any inherently dangerous application, including any application that could result in death, personal injury, catastrophic damage or mass destruction.

D-Wave may immediately suspend access to the Services in the event of any breach by a User of this Section 4.5.

4.6 Export Compliance. Customer acknowledges that the Services and D-Wave Software and related documentation and/or technical data (a) originate in Canada or the United States, and are subject to the export control laws, rules, regulations, and restrictions thereof, including the Export Administration Regulations of the U.S. Department of Commerce, (b) may have been transferred to Customer from another country that has additional export regulations (together the "Export Controls"). Customer agrees to use the Services and/or D-Wave Software, Documentation and/or related technical data in accordance with the Export Controls, and will not export, re-export, or transfer in any manner said items in part or in whole in violation of the Export Controls. Customer understands it is solely responsible for obtaining all necessary licenses or authorizations relating to exporting the Services and other items described in this Agreement, and will not export such without D-Wave's permission and in compliance with this article. Customer will not export to (a) any country subject to a United States or Canadian embargo, (b) a national or resident of any country subject to a United States or Canadian embargo, (c) any person or entity to which export is prohibited by the country from which the Customer received the Services, D-Wave Software, Documentation and/or related technical data, or (d) anyone who is engaged in activities that may be prohibited by the Export Controls. Customer represents that it is not named on any U.S. or Canadian government denied-party list.

Customer will be relieved from its obligations under this Section 5.1: (i) to the extent D-Wave gives its prior written consent; or (ii) to the extent necessary to comply with applicable laws or regulations, or judicial or governmental order, provided that Customer uses commercially reasonable efforts to provide prior written notice of such disclosure (to the extent such disclosure is permitted by law and is not required to be made immediately) to D-Wave to afford D-Wave the opportunity to seek a protective order. Customer will promptly notify D-Wave in writing of any unpermitted disclosure or unpermitted use of any Confidential Information of which Customer becomes aware.

5.4 Collected Data. D-Wave may collect Customer Data and other information arising from Customer's access or use of the Services, including usage statistics, unique identifiers, associated IP addresses, version numbers of relevant software, and information on which tools and services are being used in connection with the Services (the "Collected Data"). Such collection may involve various means, including cookies and other tracking technologies. D-Wave may use such Collected Data to provide the Services (including for security and authentication purposes). D-Wave will not use or disclose Collected Data other than as necessary to provide the Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, D-Wave may anonymize the Collected Data, excluding Customer Data ("Anonymized Collected Data"), and may use, retain and disclose the Anonymized Collected Data for any purpose including to further develop and improve D-Wave's products and services.

5.5 Privacy.

If Customer is outside the European Union or the State of Israel, to the extent that the D-Wave Privacy Policy bases such collection, use, or disclosure on Customer's consent (or its Users', as applicable), Customer hereby provides its consent and represents that its Users have consented.

5.6 Remedies. Customer agrees that D-Wave may be irreparably injured by a breach of this Section 5 and that D-Wave may be entitled to seek equitable relief, including a restraining order, injunctive relief, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from any court to prevent breaches of this Section 5 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any action instituted in any court having subject matter jurisdiction, in addition to any other remedy to which D-Wave may be entitled at law or in equity in the event of any breach of this Section 5.
