Subject to the foregoing, the terms and conditions of a Sponsorship Package will control in case of conflict between them and this Agreement.

Although each Sponsorship Package and its opportunities have been set, changes may need to be made. Optimizely reserves the right to make changes to the Sponsorship Package(s) at any time prior to the commencement of the Event. If changes to a sponsorship package are material, Optimizely will promptly notify Sponsor of the change(s) and Optimizely will make reasonable efforts to provide Sponsor a replacement of a similar nature, if requested by Sponsor.

Optimizely will use reasonable efforts to identify activities that have lead scanners in the Sponsorship Package as not all activities have lead scanners. If lead scanners are not available, Sponsor may purchase scanners from an Optimizely approved vendor for the activity(ies) it sponsors.

2. Payment.

The Sponsorship Package will specify the fees and expenses associated with Your chosen level of sponsorship for the Event (“Sponsorship Fee”). Except as may otherwise be set forth in the Sponsorship Package, Payment is due net 30 days from the invoice date or prior to the start of the Event, whichever is earlier. Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Sponsorship Fee is non-refundable and non-cancelable. Optimizely reserves the right to revoke or prevent Sponsor’s Event participation in the event of non-payment.

3. Taxes, Licenses and Permits.

Sponsor is solely responsible for obtaining any license(s) and/or permit(s) it requires in order to participate in the Event. Sponsor is solely responsible for the payment of all taxes (including sales and use taxes), license fees, expenses, or other charges applicable to its participation in the Event, including any taxes collected by Optimizely on Sponsor’s behalf, which shall be invoiced to Sponsor.
