If you use or process any Oura Data or User Data using, in connection with, or with the benefit of any AI Model or AI Platform that is owned, licensed, or controlled by any third party (provided such use or processing is expressly authorized by this Agreement), then you shall ensure that each such third party is bound by written terms and conditions that are no less protective of the Company, its Users, User Data, Oura Data, and Oura Intellectual Property than the terms set forth in this Agreement. You shall be responsible and liable for, and you shall indemnify Oura from any claims arising from, any breach of or non-compliance with this Agreement by a third party or any other person or entity with respect to Oura Data or User Data that you have accessed, collected, obtained, or received, or which you have otherwise shared, processed, inputted, submitted, or used.
- (c) If you are or at any time become an Aggregator, you may access or receive Oura Data and User Data strictly in order to pass such data through to the End Customer, and only then subject to your compliance with Section 3(e) and Section 3(f). No Aggregator may use or process Oura Data or User Data for any other purpose, whether or not otherwise authorized herein, and whether or not such Oura Data or User Data was obtained from any other party. For the avoidance of doubt and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Aggregator shall relay, transmit, transfer, make available, disclose, distribute, redistribute, or otherwise provide or permit any Oura Data or User Data (or any data or information derived therefrom) to any AI Model, AI Platform, large language model, or other artificial intelligence or machine learning system, whether operated by such Aggregator, any End Customer, or any third party.

- (a) You shall implement and maintain comprehensive technical, administrative, and physical security measures appropriate to the sensitivity of User Data, Oura Data, Oura Intellectual Property, and Confidential Information, designed to protect against accidental, unlawful, and unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, destruction, or loss (the “Security Measures”). Such Security Measures shall at a minimum include:
- (i) role-based access controls and multi-factor authentication for systems that process any of the foregoing not owned by you;
- (ii) encryption of all data and information in transit and at rest using industry-standard encryption;
- (iii) network security controls including firewalls and intrusion detection systems;
- (iv) secure software development practices;
- (v) documented incident response procedures;
- (vi) personnel training on data protection and security;
- (vii) due diligence and security requirements for third parties with access to User Data or Oura Data not owned by the using or accessing Party; and
- (viii) business continuity and disaster recovery procedures.
- (b) You shall notify the Company of any Data Incident immediately upon discovery, and in no event more than twenty-four (24) hours after first learning of such Data Incident. You shall immediately take all necessary steps to contain any Data Incident and prevent further unauthorized access, preserve all relevant evidence, and conduct a thorough investigation.
- (c) The Company shall have sole authority to determine whether notifications to affected Users, regulators, or other parties are required following any Data Incident, as well as the content and timing of any such notifications.
- (d) You shall fully cooperate with and assist the Company in investigating any Data Incident and complying with applicable legal requirements.
- (e) To the extent a Data Incident resulted from or was caused by your acts, omissions, or breach of this Agreement (or such acts or omissions of any person or party acting on your behalf), you shall bear all costs associated with responding to and remediating the Data Incident. The foregoing obligations are in addition to any indemnification obligations under this Agreement.
- (f) The Company cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat its security measures or use Personal Data for improper purposes.
- (g) The Company may provide, suggest or mandate additional security procedures and controls intended to reduce the risk to you of fraud or security breaches (“Security Controls”). These Security Controls may include processes or applications that are developed by the Company or by third parties, including but not limited to providing two-factor authentication for users logging into their Oura account. You agree to review all Security Controls for those that are appropriate for your business and the Collaborator Application to protect against unauthorized transactions and, if necessary, use other procedures and controls not provided by the Company.
- (h) The Company shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, upon reasonable prior written notice (which shall not be less than five (5) business days), to conduct an audit of your systems, processes, AI Platform, Collaborator Application, MCP Client, and any other technology or infrastructure that accesses, processes, stores, or otherwise interacts with User Data, Oura Data, Oura Intellectual Property, Oura API, or MCP Server for the purpose of verifying your compliance with this Agreement, including without limitation the prohibitions on AI Model training (each such audit, a “Technology Audit”). You shall cooperate fully with any such Technology Audit, including by providing the Company or its designated auditor with reasonable access to relevant systems, logs, records, configurations, and personnel. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disruption to your operations during any Technology Audit. All information obtained by the Company or its designated auditor during a Technology Audit shall be treated as your Confidential Information; provided, however, that the Company may disclose the results of any Technology Audit to the extent necessary to enforce its rights under this Agreement or as required by applicable law. If a Technology Audit reveals any non-compliance with this Agreement, you shall promptly remediate such non-compliance at your sole cost and expense, and the Company shall have the right to conduct follow-up audits to verify such remediation. You shall bear the costs of any Technology Audit that reveals a material breach of this Agreement; otherwise, the Company shall bear the costs of the Technology Audit.

The Company may update this Agreement from time to time in its absolute and sole discretion, and, provided such revised or updated Agreement has been published in a manner accessible to you, your continued participation following such updates or revisions shall constitute acceptance.
- (b) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
- (c) Assignment. You may not assign or delegate this Agreement, or any term or provision herein, to a third party without the prior written consent of the Company.

- (g) Notices; Legal Requests. Oura may respond to and comply with any writ of attachment, lien, levy, subpoena, warrant, or other legal request or order (“Legal Process”) that Oura believes to be valid and appropriate. Oura may provide, subject to the terms of the Oura Privacy Policy, any information under such Legal Process. Oura is not responsible for any losses, whether direct or indirect, that you may incur as a result of our complying with Legal Process.
