- Interoperability and Integration Testing. If specified in the Program Guide, Imprivata will provide Partner a test suite to be performed by Partner to output log files to be returned to Imprivata for review. In certain situations, Imprivata will request that Partner set up a test facility for the interoperability testing either at Imprivata or for remote access, as mutually agreed, and provide Imprivata an interoperability guide setting out in reasonable detail how to integrate the Imprivata Products and the Partner Product. The appropriate Imprivata personnel shall review the output log files, and test the operation of the Partner Product and the Interface Software or attend a demo in person or by webinar to review the integrated solution, as applicable, to determine, in Imprivata‘s good faith discretion, whether they create sufficient interoperability between the Partner Product and the Imprivata Products and the Imprivata Products’ functionality. Partner agrees that UI elements provided as part of the Imprivata Products and Imprivata APIs, including artwork depicting Imprivata logos, icons and trademarks, are an integral part of the Imprivata APIs and need to be embedded in Partner Product without any alteration of size or content unless Imprivata expressly agrees in writing of any changes. Imprivata will review the proper use of Imprivata UI elements, artwork, logos, icons and trademarks. Depending on the nature of the integration, Imprivata will require certain workflows that need to be completely supported by the integration of the Imprivata Products and the Partner Product. The set of workflows provided to Partner prior to development of the Interface Software need to be completely supported by the integration of the Imprivata Products and the Partner Product. If during the review or demonstration process Imprivata makes suggestions and/or recommendations to Partner to modify the Partner Product to help assure interoperability or the proper use of Imprivata UI elements, artwork, logos, icons and trademarks including the complete support of all provided workflow, Partner will either (i) implement such suggestions and/or recommendations or (ii) forego the certification or validation process. The integrated product shall not be made commercially marketed or made available to customers, unless Imprivata has validated or certified the integration of the Imprivata Products and the Partner Product.
- Modifications. Imprivata reserves the right to modify the Imprivata Products and any API’s and Partner reserves the right to modify the Partner Product as each party sees fit for the conduct of its business, including new releases or updates (each, a "Modification"). Each party agrees to provide to the other party all such Modifications that impact the interoperability between the Partner Product and the Imprivata Products, free of charge, during the term of these Technology Partner General Terms. Subsequent to any Modification that impacts the functionality of the Interface Software or the interoperability between the Imprivata Products and the Partner Product, Imprivata may by written notice to Partner (the “Resubmission Notice”): (i) request another full demonstration of the Partner Product interoperating with the Imprivata Products as described above; (ii) offer reasonable suggestions to Partner in the event modifications to the Partner Product are required in order to insure interoperability between Imprivata Products and the Partner Product; and (iii) provided Partner chooses to maintain the interoperability certification or validation status of the Product, Partner agrees, within 30 days after Imprivata’s Resubmission Notice, to resubmit the Partner Product, with any Modifications and, if applicable, an updated interoperability guide, to Imprivata for re-certification or re-validation. If Partner elects not to have the Partner Product recertified or the Partner Product fails to pass the interoperability testing within 30 days after Imprivata’s Resubmission Notice, Partner’s interoperability certification or validation shall be limited to the Partner Product and the Imprivata Products versions prior to the Modifications.
- Certification or Validation Letter. If the Partner Product passes the interoperability testing, Imprivata shall provide to Partner a letter, by e-mail, validating or certifying the particular Partner Product, in accordance with the Program Guide, with a specific reference as to the versions of the Partner Product and the Imprivata Products for which such certification or validation applies.
