5.3 Customer Security Obligations
Section titled “5.3 Customer Security Obligations”Upon activation and delivery of access to the Platform, Customer assumes sole responsibility for the security configuration and hardening of all servers, instances, and resources within Customer’s environment. Without limiting the foregoing, Customer shall implement and maintain, at a minimum:
- Host-based and network-level firewall policies that restrict inbound and outbound traffic to only those ports, protocols, and services required for Customer’s legitimate business operations;
- IP address whitelisting or other access controls that restrict remote access (including SSH, RDP, and API access) to authorized IP addresses and networks only;
- The disabling of all unnecessary services, ports, and default accounts on all servers and instances provisioned under these Terms;
- The timely application of security patches and updates to all Customer-installed operating systems, applications, and dependencies;
- Intrusion detection and/or prevention systems appropriate to Customer’s environment; and
- Compliance with all applicable industry security standards relevant to Customer’s use of the Services.
If Boost Run reasonably determines that Customer’s security practices, configurations, or lack thereof pose an actual or potential threat to the Platform, the Boost Run network, or other Boost Run customers, Boost Run may, in addition to any other rights and remedies, take any or all of the following actions:
- Notification and Mandatory Remediation. Boost Run shall notify Customer in writing of the identified deficiency and specify the required remediation measures. Customer shall complete such remediation within twenty-four (24) hours of receipt of such notice (or such shorter period as Boost Run reasonably determines is necessary in the case of an active or imminent threat).
- Service Suspension. If Customer fails to complete the required remediation within the timeframe specified above, Boost Run may immediately suspend Customer’s access to the Services, in whole or in part, without further notice and without liability to Customer, until Customer has remediated the deficiency to Boost Run’s reasonable satisfaction.
- Node Suspension and Reclamation. Boost Run may immediately suspend, isolate, power down, or reclaim any server node(s) allocated to Customer if Boost Run reasonably determines that such node(s) are the source of, or are contributing to, a security threat to the Platform or other customers.
- Mandatory Firewall Policy. Boost Run may require Customer to implement a Boost Run-designated minimum firewall policy. Customer shall implement such policy within twenty-four (24) hours of written notice. If Customer fails to implement the required policy within such period, Customer hereby expressly consents to Boost Run implementing such policy directly on Customer’s servers via BMC (Baseboard Management Controller) access or equivalent out-of-band management access, and Customer waives any claim arising from such implementation.
- Termination for Cause. If Customer fails to complete required remediation within seven (7) days of Boost Run’s initial written notice (or such shorter period as Boost Run specifies for active threats), Boost Run may terminate these Terms and all Orders immediately for cause, without any obligation to refund prepaid Fees.
- Cost Recovery. Customer shall promptly reimburse Boost Run for all reasonable costs, expenses, and damages incurred by Boost Run arising from or related to Customer’s security non-compliance, including without limitation: (i) costs to investigate, contain, and remediate any security incident attributable to Customer’s environment; (ii) costs to notify other affected customers or regulatory authorities; (iii) costs to restore or repair the Platform; and (iv) any liability imposed on Boost Run by third parties as a result of such security incident. Such costs shall be added to Customer’s next invoice as additional Fees.
Customer shall indemnify, defend, and hold Boost Run, its Affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, and contractors harmless from and against any losses, damages, claims, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to Customer’s failure to comply with the security obligations set forth in this section, including any claims by third parties whose data or systems are affected by a security incident originating from Customer’s environment. This indemnification is independent of, and not subject to the cap on, the general indemnification under Section 11.6.
6. Fees, Payment, and Taxes
Section titled “6. Fees, Payment, and Taxes”Fees. Customer shall pay all Fees specified in the applicable Order or otherwise published on the Platform at the time of provisioning. All Fees are quoted and payable in United States Dollars. Except as expressly stated otherwise in an Order or required by applicable law, all Fees are non-refundable and payment obligations are non-cancellable.
Invoicing and Payment. Unless otherwise specified in the Order, Customer shall pay invoiced amounts upon the invoice date. Customer authorizes Boost Run to charge any payment method on file for amounts due, including recurring fees and any other charges Customer incurs in connection with the Services. Customer shall reimburse Boost Run for all chargebacks and bank-declined or disputed-transaction fees imposed by Boost Run’s payment processor.
Late Payment. Any amount not paid when due shall accrue interest from the due date at the lesser of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month or the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, plus reasonable costs of collection (including attorneys’ fees).
Suspension for Late Payment. Boost Run may, upon five (5) business days’ written notice, suspend access to the Services if any invoice remains unpaid for more than fifteen (15) days past the due date. Such suspension shall not relieve Customer of its obligation to pay all Fees accrued through and including the date of suspension, and payment obligations shall recommence immediately upon restoration of access.
Acceleration. If Customer fails to pay any invoice within thirty (30) days of the due date, Boost Run may, at its sole election, declare all remaining unpaid Fees for the then-current term immediately due and payable, without further notice (an “Acceleration”). Any Acceleration shall not constitute a termination of these Terms, and Boost Run’s other rights and remedies shall remain unaffected.
Authorization to Charge. Customer authorizes Boost Run to charge any payment method on file for all amounts due under these Terms, including overdue Fees, accrued interest, and collection costs, without requiring further written authorization from Customer for each charge. Boost Run shall provide Customer with advance written notice of at least two (2) business days prior to charging any amount exceeding the most recent prior invoice amount by more than twenty-five percent (25%).
Collection Costs. Customer shall be responsible for all costs incurred by Boost Run in connection with collecting overdue Fees and interest, including court costs, arbitration fees, and reasonable attorneys’ fees.
Disputed Fees. Any fee disputes must be submitted to Boost Run in writing within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, identifying the specific disputed amounts and the basis for the dispute, or the invoice will be deemed accepted in full. Undisputed amounts shall be paid by the invoice due date regardless of any pending dispute.
Taxes. Fees do not include any sales, use, value-added, withholding, gross receipts, or similar taxes (collectively, “Taxes”), other than Taxes imposed on Boost Run’s net income. Customer is responsible for all Taxes associated with its purchase of the Services. If Boost Run is required to collect or remit such Taxes, the corresponding amounts shall be added to the invoice.
Tax Gross-Up. If Customer is required by applicable law to withhold any taxes from the Fees, the Fees payable to Boost Run shall be increased so that Boost Run receives the same net amount, after withholding, as it would have received absent the withholding. Customer shall provide Boost Run with all documentation necessary to support any tax credit Boost Run may claim with respect to such withholding.
Promotional Credits. Boost Run may, in its sole discretion, issue promotional credits, free-trial credits, or service credits. Such credits have no cash value, are non-transferable, expire as set forth in the applicable program terms (and in any event no later than twelve (12) months after issuance), may only be applied to Fees for the Services for which they were issued, and may be revoked or canceled by Boost Run for abuse, misrepresentation, or violation of these Terms.
Price Changes. Boost Run may modify the Fees for any Service at any time, with such changes taking effect (i) immediately for on-demand consumption-based usage, upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior notice posted to the Platform or sent to Customer’s account email, and (ii) at the end of the then-current term, for committed-use, reserved, or fixed-term Services.
