These terms govern your use of the Art2link website, your Art2link ESB subscription, and any integration services you buy from Cerebrum City. Read them alongside the Privacy Policy, which explains what we do and do not collect.
Art2link ESB is a product of Cerebrum City Corporation, a Georgia corporation with offices at 730 Peachtree St NE, Atlanta, GA 30308. These Terms & Conditions (the “Terms”) are a legal agreement between Cerebrum City and you — whether you are browsing this website, evaluating the Product, holding a subscription, or engaging our services.
By using this website or the Product, you accept these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of a company or other organization, you confirm you have authority to bind it, and “you” means that organization.
Several documents can apply to the same relationship. Where they conflict, the more specific one controls, in this order:
| Precedence | Document | What it governs |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | A signed order form, master agreement or statement of work between you and Cerebrum City | Commercial terms, scope, SLAs, negotiated legal terms |
| 2 | The marketplace transaction terms for a Product purchased through Microsoft Marketplace (formerly Azure Marketplace) | Billing, payment, and the marketplace operator’s own terms |
| 3 | The end user licence terms delivered with the Product | Licence grant, restrictions, permitted use of the software |
| 4 | These Terms & Conditions | Everything else, and all use of this website |
The Referral Program Terms govern participation in the referral program and stand on their own.
You may read, quote and share the content on this website for your own evaluation and internal business purposes, with attribution. You may not:
Nothing here restricts your right to quote us in commentary, analysis or comparison, including in AI-generated answers, provided the quotation is accurate and attributed.
Some areas of the site require an account — the service login, the ticket system, and the certification program. You are responsible for the accuracy of the details you register, for keeping credentials confidential, and for activity under your account. Tell us promptly at support@cerebrumcity.com if you believe an account has been compromised.
Certification results and credentials are issued to a named individual and are not transferable. We may revoke a credential obtained through misrepresentation or breach of exam conditions.
Subject to payment and to these Terms, we grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to install and run the Product in your own Azure tenant for your internal business purposes, for the term and at the plan level stated in your order.
Plans are licensed as a flat monthly fee per plan. We do not meter per message or per trading partner. The Product records a daily Step count and reports it to our licensing service so we can validate the instance and administer the subscription; what that service stores, and what it does not, is set out in the Privacy Policy.
You may not sublicense, resell, rent or host the Product as a service for third parties, remove or circumvent licensing or validation controls, or reverse engineer the Product except to the extent that right cannot lawfully be excluded.
Plan features, limits and prices published on the pricing page apply to new orders and renewals. A price change never applies retroactively inside a term you have already paid for.
Fees are payable in advance for each subscription period, in US dollars, exclusive of taxes. Where you purchase through Microsoft Marketplace, billing runs through your Microsoft billing account under that marketplace’s payment terms. Where you purchase directly, invoices are due on the terms stated on the invoice.
If subscription fees are not paid, the Product may be suspended and remotely disabled or shut down through licensing enforcement. We will make reasonable efforts to give notice to your billing and technical contacts before disabling a production instance.
Disablement stops the Product from running. It does not delete the data in your own Azure tenant, which remains yours and under your control.
The Product runs inside your Azure tenant, so the environment around it is yours to operate. You are responsible for:
By default, Cerebrum City has no access to your resources.
Consulting, migration, development and managed run support are sold separately and delivered under an order or statement of work that defines scope, staffing, acceptance and any service levels. Response commitments apply only where a support plan naming them is in force. Unless a statement of work says otherwise, deliverables we create for you are yours on payment, and the tools, methods and reusable components we bring to the engagement remain ours.
Where you grant us access to your environment or send us logs to diagnose a problem, we use that access only as needed to perform the work, and our role in handling personal data in that material is described in the Privacy Policy.
The Product, the Documentation, this website and everything in them are owned by Cerebrum City or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws. These Terms grant rights of use only; no ownership transfers to you.
Art2link and Art2link ESB are trademarks of Cerebrum City. Microsoft, Azure, Microsoft Marketplace and BizTalk Server are trademarks of Microsoft Corporation, used here only to describe interoperability. Cerebrum City is an independent software vendor; nothing on this site implies that Microsoft sponsors, endorses or is affiliated with Art2link ESB.
If you send us ideas, feature requests or other feedback, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free right to use it to improve our products, with no obligation and no compensation. Do not send us anything you consider confidential unless we have a confidentiality agreement in place.
Each of us may receive non-public information from the other in the course of an evaluation, a support case or an engagement. Each of us will protect the other’s confidential information with at least reasonable care, use it only for the purpose it was shared for, and disclose it only to people who need it and are bound to protect it. This does not apply to information that is public, independently developed, or lawfully received from someone else, and it does not prevent a disclosure required by law.
The Product runs on infrastructure and services you procure, and can connect to systems operated by you or by third parties. We are not responsible for those services, their availability, their terms or their fees. Where the Product includes third-party or open-source components, the licences for those components apply to them.
We warrant that we will perform Services in a professional and workmanlike manner by suitably skilled personnel, and that the Product will perform materially as described in the Documentation for the version you are licensed to run. If it does not, tell us and we will use reasonable efforts to correct it — that is your primary remedy.
Except for the warranties stated above, the website, the Product and the Documentation are provided “as is”, and Cerebrum City disclaims all other warranties, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Product will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that it will meet a requirement we have not agreed in writing. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, in which case those exclusions do not apply to you.
Statements about future features, timing or roadmap — on this site, in a demo, or in a conversation — are not commitments and must not be relied on in a purchase decision.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data or business interruption, even if advised of the possibility.
Each party’s total liability arising out of or relating to these Terms is limited to the amounts you paid to Cerebrum City for the Product and Services in the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim. Where nothing has been paid, that limit is one thousand US dollars.
These limits do not apply to a party’s indemnity obligations under §15, to unpaid fees you owe, or to liability that cannot be limited by law.
We will defend you against a third-party claim that the Product, as provided by us and used as permitted, infringes that party’s intellectual property rights, and will pay damages finally awarded or agreed in settlement. Our obligation does not cover a claim arising from your modification of the Product, from a combination we did not authorize, or from your continued use of a version we asked you to replace. Our options are to procure the right to continue, to modify or replace the Product, or to terminate the affected subscription and refund fees covering the unused remainder of the term.
You will defend us against a third-party claim arising from data you process through the Product in breach of law or of these Terms, or from your use of the Product outside what these Terms permit.
In both cases the indemnified party must give prompt notice, allow the other to control the defense, and cooperate reasonably.
These Terms apply while you use the website or hold a subscription. A subscription runs for the term stated in your order and renews as that order provides.
Either of us may terminate for material breach that is not cured within thirty days of written notice. We may suspend access immediately where continued access presents a security risk, where use breaches §4 or §6, or for non-payment as described in §7.
On termination, your right to run the Product ends and you must stop using it and remove it from your environment. Your data in your own tenant remains yours; exporting or preserving it is your responsibility, and we recommend doing so before the term ends. Sections that are meant to survive — confidentiality, intellectual property, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnities and governing law — survive termination.
We currently sell to customers in the United States. If we expand to other regions we will update these Terms and add the contractual terms those regions require.
You agree to comply with applicable export control, sanctions and anti-corruption laws, and confirm you are not located in, or acting for anyone in, a jurisdiction or on a list that would make providing the Product to you unlawful. You are responsible for determining whether the Product suits a regulated workload and for the controls that workload requires.
We may change the Product, the website, and these Terms. When we change these Terms we update the Effective Date above, and the change applies from that date. If a change is material and adverse to you, it takes effect for your existing subscription at your next renewal rather than mid-term. Continuing to use the website or the Product after the Effective Date means you accept the current version.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, USA, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and the state and federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia have exclusive jurisdiction. Each of us waives any objection to venue there. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
Before filing anything, please contact us — most disputes are resolved faster in a conversation than in a filing.
These Terms, together with the documents named in §3, are the entire agreement on their subject and replace earlier understandings. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest stands. A failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms without our consent, except to a successor of your business that assumes them; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets. Neither of us is liable for a delay caused by events beyond reasonable control. Nothing here creates an agency, partnership or joint venture between us.
