1. RingCentral Online Terms of Service
Subject to the terms of this Agreement (including the RingCentral Online Terms of Service, which are defined in Section 7.7 and Table 2 and form a part of this Agreement), you may use the Services, Software, and equipment to the extent you have a RingCentral Channel Partner, who (1) executes contracts (including Order Forms) with you and bills and collects payment from you, in each case on RingCentral’s behalf, for the Services, Software, and equipment and (2) is authorized by RingCentral to do so. Otherwise, you may use the Services, Software, and equipment, subject to the RingCentral Online Terms of Service, and Sections 2 through 5 in this Agreement do not apply.

2.1 Overview. RingCentral has the right to directly communicate and interact with Customer and to directly exercise and enforce RingCentral’s rights under this Agreement.
2.2 Seller of Record. The Services, Software, and equipment are sold and provided to Customer by RingCentral, and not the RingCentral Channel Partner.

In addition, RingCentral has assigned to the RingCentral Channel Partner specified on your Order Form the right to collect payment from you of amounts owed to RingCentral under your Order Form. The RingCentral Channel Partner is a third-party beneficiary to this Agreement, but solely with respect to the right to collect Customer’s payments under your Order Form.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the RingCentral Online Terms of Service, to the extent you may use the Services, Software, and equipment in accordance with the first sentence in Section 1, subject to, and conditional upon Customer’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, RingCentral grants to Customer and its End User, a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable (other than as permitted under this Agreement), non-sublicensable license to use any software provided or made available by RingCentral to the Customer as part of the Services (“Software”) to the extent reasonably required to use the Services as permitted by this Agreement, only for the duration that Customer is entitled to use the Services and subject to RingCentral being timely paid for the Services. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the limited license granted to Customer in this section does not convey any ownership or other rights or licenses, express or implied, in the Services, any related materials, or in any Intellectual Property and no IP Rights or other rights or licenses are granted, transferred, or assigned to Customer, any End User, or any other party by implication, estoppel, or otherwise.
