CARET Software Updates and Patches

During the Term of Client’s CARET Software Subscription, CARET will notify Client within CARET Software and/or via e-mail of updates and patches (where Client is eligible). It is ultimately Client’s responsibility to ensure that these updates and patches are installed. In part, the updates and patches to are designed to thwart the continual threat of security breaches (including data mining agents and other malware) which if not prevented would make the Client more vulnerable to having its data compromised. Client hereby acknowledges that it is not best practices to use a version of any of the services or products that comprise Client’s CARET Software Subscription that is not the most current and up to date version offered by CARET, and that doing so, Client would be putting the integrity of the system and Client’s data at heightened risk of corruption, hard shutdown, and security breaches that could extend beyond the data accessed by the products or services that comprise Client’s CARET Software Subscription or stored within CARET Software Products.
