Vistana Compute Terms of Service

Last Updated: May 18, 2026

These Vistana Compute Terms of Service (these "Terms") govern access to and use of Vistana Compute, including the Vistana Compute marketplace, dashboard, APIs, software tools, support services, and related GPU compute, bare-metal, virtual machine, networking, storage, and infrastructure offerings (collectively, "Vistana Compute" or the "Services"). These Terms are entered into by and between Vistana LLC ("Vistana," "Company," "we," "us," or "our"), and the person or entity accessing or using the Services ("Customer," "you," or "your").

If you access or use the Services on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and all references to "Customer," "you," and "your" include that entity and its authorized users.

Please read these Terms carefully. By creating an account, accessing Vistana Compute, placing an order, using the Services, or clicking to accept these Terms, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not access or use the Services.

Important Notice: These Terms include limitations of liability, warranty disclaimers, indemnity obligations, automatic billing authorization, suspension rights, and a binding arbitration agreement with a class action waiver. See Sections 4, 7, 11, 12, 13, and 14. If applicable law prohibits arbitration for a particular claim or jurisdiction, the arbitration provisions will apply only to the fullest extent permitted by law.

1. Agreement; Order of Precedence; Changes

1.1 Terms.

These Terms, together with any applicable order form, online order, quote, statement of work, invoice, service level agreement, data processing addendum, acceptable use policy, supplier terms, and policies or documentation incorporated by reference (collectively, "Order Terms"), form the complete agreement between Customer and Vistana for the Services.

1.2 Privacy Policy.

Vistana's Privacy Policy, available at https://vistana.ai/privacy or another URL designated by Vistana (the "Privacy Policy"), describes how Vistana collects, uses, and shares personal information. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

1.3 Order of Precedence.

If there is a conflict between these Terms and Order Terms signed or expressly accepted by Vistana, the Order Terms control for the affected Services. If there is a conflict between these Terms and an online help article, dashboard text, marketing page, or general documentation, these Terms control unless the other document expressly states that it modifies these Terms and is accepted by Vistana.

1.4 Changes to Terms.

Vistana may update these Terms from time to time by posting revised Terms on its website or within Vistana Compute. Updates are effective on the posted "Last Updated" date unless a later effective date is stated. Updated Terms will not apply retroactively to disputes that arose before the update. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

2. Account Eligibility, Registration, and Security

2.1 Eligibility.

You may use the Services only if you are legally able to enter into a binding contract and are not barred from using the Services under applicable law, sanctions, export control rules, or these Terms.

2.2 Account Registration.

To access Vistana Compute, you must create an account, complete onboarding and verification steps requested by Vistana, and provide accurate, current, and complete information. Vistana may accept, reject, or condition account approval in its discretion, including based on compliance, security, risk, payment, supplier, capacity, or operational considerations.

2.3 Organizations and Authorized Users.

If Customer is an entity, Customer may designate administrators and authorized users. Customer is responsible for all activity under its account and for ensuring that each authorized user complies with these Terms. Accounts, credentials, capacity, reservations, and access rights may not be sold, shared, transferred, leased, assigned, brokered, or made available to third parties unless Vistana expressly permits it in writing or through an approved Vistana Compute feature.

2.4 Credentials and Security.

Customer is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of passwords, API keys, SSH keys, tokens, authentication factors, and other access credentials ("Credentials"). Customer must use reasonable security controls, including strong passwords, least-privilege access, secure key management, timely user offboarding, and appropriate account monitoring. Customer must promptly notify Vistana at contact@vistana.ai of any suspected unauthorized access, Credential compromise, or security incident involving the Services.

2.5 Account Review.

Vistana may require additional verification, compliance certifications, tax information, payment information, security reviews, or usage information before or during use of the Services. Failure to provide requested information may result in delayed provisioning, order cancellation, suspension, or termination.

3. Vistana Compute Services

3.1 Platform.

Vistana Compute is an infrastructure platform and marketplace for discovering, reserving, procuring, deploying, managing, and using GPU compute and related infrastructure. Services may include bare-metal, dedicated machines, virtual instances, managed or unmanaged clusters, storage, networking, APIs, dashboards, command-line tools, software agents, support, documentation, and related offerings.

3.2 Listings, Orders, and Reservations.

Vistana may display available capacity, pricing, regions, hardware configurations, start times, duration, network attributes, support terms, service levels, and other specifications ("Specifications"). A purchase, reservation, subscription, usage commitment, prepaid credit purchase, or other procurement through Vistana Compute is an "Order." An Order is accepted only when Vistana confirms acceptance, provisions access, issues an invoice, charges a payment method, or otherwise confirms the Order in writing or through Vistana Compute.

3.3 Capacity Is Subject to Availability.

Displayed capacity, pricing, regions, and Specifications are not guaranteed until an Order is accepted by Vistana. Vistana may reject, cancel, delay, modify, or condition an Order if capacity is unavailable, pricing or Specifications contain an error, payment is not authorized, compliance review is incomplete, supplier approval is not obtained, or Vistana reasonably determines that the Order presents legal, operational, security, financial, or reputational risk.

3.4 Provisioning and Delivery.

Vistana will use commercially reasonable efforts to provision accepted Orders according to applicable Order Terms. Delivery may include providing dashboard access, API access, endpoint information, SSH access, network details, Credentials, or other instructions. Customer is responsible for configuring, securing, and using delivered resources, including operating systems, packages, firewall rules, SSH keys, workloads, data, and dependencies, unless Order Terms expressly state otherwise.

3.5 Dedicated Machines, Bare Metal, and Administrative Access.

Some Services may provide Customer with administrative, root, privileged, or low-level access to machines, virtual instances, or clusters. Customer is solely responsible for activities performed through such access, including installation of software, configuration changes, workload execution, network exposure, encryption, access control, patching, data handling, and compliance. Vistana may reimage, wipe, reclaim, repair, isolate, or disable resources as needed for security, operational integrity, termination, order completion, supplier requirements, or compliance with law.

3.6 Service Levels and Credits.

Any uptime, availability, maintenance, support, or service credit commitments apply only if expressly stated in applicable Order Terms or a service level agreement published or accepted by Vistana (an "SLA"). Unless an SLA states otherwise, service credits are Customer's sole and exclusive remedy for availability failures, and Customer must submit any claim for a service credit within ten days after the end of the calendar month in which the event occurred. Vistana has no obligation to issue credits for issues caused by Customer, Customer Data, Customer systems, third-party services, force majeure events, beta features, scheduled maintenance, emergency maintenance, unsupported configurations, or failure to follow documentation.

3.7 Supplier and Data Center Resources.

Services may be provided using infrastructure, facilities, networks, hardware, power, cooling, software, or services supplied by third-party providers ("Suppliers"). Supplier terms, facility rules, acceptable-use rules, security rules, maintenance windows, export restrictions, or other requirements may apply to certain Services ("Supplier Terms"). Customer must comply with Supplier Terms presented to Customer or otherwise applicable to the Services. Vistana is not responsible for Supplier acts or omissions except to the extent expressly required by applicable Order Terms.

3.8 No Circumvention.

Customer may not use Vistana Compute or information obtained through Vistana Compute to circumvent Vistana, avoid Vistana fees, directly solicit or transact with Suppliers regarding Vistana Compute-provided capacity, or interfere with Vistana's commercial relationships, except with Vistana's prior written consent.

3.9 Platform Data.

Vistana owns all right, title, and interest in data generated by or about operation of Vistana Compute, including capacity availability, pricing, bids, offers, reservations, usage metrics, telemetry, performance measurements, reliability metrics, market analytics, aggregated statistics, and derived insights, excluding Customer Data as defined in Section 6 ("Platform Data"). Customer may not scrape, copy, resell, publish, benchmark publicly, or redistribute Platform Data without Vistana's prior written consent, except as required to use the Services internally.

3.10 Modifications.

Vistana may modify, discontinue, replace, suspend, or limit any part of the Services from time to time. Vistana will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide notice where practicable if a material change affects active paid Orders, but Vistana may make changes without notice where needed for security, legal compliance, supplier requirements, system integrity, or emergency maintenance.

3.11 Beta and Preview Features.

Vistana may offer beta, preview, experimental, trial, or evaluation features. Such features are optional, may be changed or discontinued at any time, may be subject to additional terms, and are provided without warranties, service level commitments, support commitments, or indemnities unless expressly stated in writing by Vistana.

4. Payment, Billing, Taxes, and Refunds

4.1 Fees.

Customer must pay all fees, charges, usage amounts, subscriptions, reservations, deposits, overages, taxes, and other amounts incurred under or in connection with the Services ("Fees"). Fees may be based on reserved capacity, actual usage, hardware type, region, duration, bandwidth, storage, support level, software, managed services, or other metrics described in Order Terms, pricing pages, invoices, or the Vistana Compute dashboard.

4.2 Prepayment, Deposits, Credits, and Holds.

Vistana may require prepayment, deposits, account credits, minimum commitments, or payment authorization before accepting or provisioning Orders. When Customer places an Order, Vistana may place a hold on available credits or payment methods for the estimated amount. Holds may be released if the Order is cancelled before acceptance or adjusted when final charges are calculated. Prepaid credits are not cash, may not be transferred, and are non-refundable except as required by law or expressly stated in Order Terms.

4.3 Stored Payment Methods and Automatic Billing Authorization.

By adding a payment method to a Vistana Compute account, saving a payment method, placing an Order, or continuing to use the Services with a payment method on file, Customer authorizes Vistana and its payment processors, including Stripe or similar providers, to store the payment method and automatically charge it for all amounts owed. Charges may include reserved capacity, usage fees, recurring subscriptions, top-ups, deposits, overages, taxes, late amounts, support fees, and other amounts shown in Order Terms, invoices, pricing pages, or the Vistana Compute dashboard.

Customer authorizes Vistana to charge saved payment methods when charges are incurred, when an Order is placed or accepted, when prepaid balances are low or exhausted, at recurring billing intervals, when usage exceeds included amounts, or when payment otherwise becomes due. Charges may be fixed, variable, recurring, metered, estimated, or adjusted based on actual usage.

Customer represents that it is authorized to use each payment method provided and will keep payment information current. Removing a payment method does not cancel active Services, terminate Orders, release Customer from payment obligations, or prevent Vistana from collecting amounts already owed. If a payment fails, Vistana may retry the payment, suspend or terminate access, cancel Orders, require prepayment, apply credits, or use any lawful collection method.

4.4 Invoices and Payment Terms.

Unless Order Terms state otherwise, invoiced amounts are due upon receipt. Past due amounts may accrue interest at the lesser of 1.5% per month or the maximum rate permitted by law. Customer is responsible for reasonable costs of collection, including attorneys' fees, collection agency fees, and court costs, to the extent permitted by law.

4.5 Billing Disputes.

Customer must notify Vistana of any good-faith billing dispute within thirty days after the applicable invoice, charge, or dashboard entry first becomes available. Customer must pay all undisputed amounts when due. Failure to dispute a charge within that period waives the dispute to the fullest extent permitted by law.

4.6 Chargebacks.

Customer may not initiate a chargeback or payment reversal for amounts validly owed without first attempting to resolve the issue with Vistana at contact@vistana.ai. Vistana may suspend or terminate Services, recover costs, and require alternative payment methods if Customer initiates an improper chargeback or payment reversal.

4.7 Refunds and Service Credits.

Except as expressly provided in Order Terms, an SLA, or applicable law, all Fees are non-refundable. Vistana may issue credits or refunds in its discretion, but doing so in one instance does not create an obligation to do so in another. Customer is not entitled to a refund or credit where Services are made available but Customer fails to access, configure, secure, or use them, or where failure results from Customer systems, Customer Data, unsupported configurations, third-party services, or Customer's breach of these Terms.

4.8 Taxes.

Fees are exclusive of taxes unless expressly stated otherwise. Customer is responsible for all sales, use, value-added, goods and services, withholding, excise, transaction, and similar taxes, duties, levies, and governmental assessments arising from use of the Services, excluding taxes based on Vistana's net income. If Vistana is required to collect or pay taxes for Customer's use of the Services, Customer must reimburse Vistana or pay such taxes unless Customer provides a valid exemption certificate.

5. Limited License; Vistana Compute Software; Feedback

5.1 Limited Access Right.

Subject to these Terms and applicable Order Terms, Vistana grants Customer a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to access and use the Services during the applicable term solely for Customer's internal business purposes and in compliance with these Terms, documentation, and applicable law. No rights are granted by implication.

5.2 Vistana Compute Software.

Vistana may make available software, SDKs, APIs, command-line tools, agents, connectors, scripts, images, templates, documentation, or other code ("Vistana Compute Software"). Vistana and its licensors retain all right, title, and interest in Vistana Compute Software and related intellectual property. Customer may use Vistana Compute Software only as needed to access and use the Services as permitted by these Terms. Customer may not copy, modify, distribute, host, sublicense, sell, or create derivative works of Vistana Compute Software except as expressly permitted by Vistana or applicable open-source licenses.

5.3 APIs.

Customer must use Vistana Compute APIs in accordance with documentation, rate limits, authentication requirements, and usage policies. Vistana may throttle, limit, suspend, change, or deprecate APIs for security, reliability, legal, operational, or product reasons. Customer may not use APIs to scrape Platform Data, bypass billing, avoid limitations, or interfere with the Services.

5.4 Open-Source Software.

The Services may include or interoperate with open-source software. Open-source software is licensed under its applicable open-source license terms, not these Terms. Nothing in these Terms limits Customer's rights under applicable open-source licenses.

5.5 Feedback.

If Customer provides ideas, suggestions, comments, feature requests, bug reports, or other feedback about Vistana or the Services ("Feedback"), Customer grants Vistana a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, display, perform, create derivative works from, and otherwise exploit the Feedback without restriction or obligation.

6. Customer Data and Workloads

6.1 Customer Data.

As between Customer and Vistana, Customer retains all right, title, and interest in data, files, prompts, model weights, models, checkpoints, code, software, workloads, configurations, images, databases, logs, outputs, and other content that Customer uploads to, stores on, processes with, or generates through the Services ("Customer Data"). Vistana does not claim ownership of Customer Data.

6.2 Customer Responsibility.

Customer is solely responsible for Customer Data and workloads, including legality, accuracy, quality, integrity, security, backup, retention, deletion, encryption, access control, permissions, licensing, intellectual property rights, privacy compliance, model behavior, output review, and downstream use. Customer must ensure that Customer Data and workloads do not violate these Terms, applicable law, third-party rights, Supplier Terms, or Vistana policies.

6.3 Backups and Data Loss.

Unless Order Terms expressly state otherwise, Vistana has no obligation to back up, preserve, export, recover, escrow, or maintain Customer Data. Customer should maintain independent backups and should not treat the Services as the sole repository for Customer Data. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Vistana is not liable for loss, corruption, deletion, unavailability, or failure to recover Customer Data.

6.4 Ephemeral and Reclaimed Resources.

Some Services may be temporary, ephemeral, preemptible, reclaimable, reimaged, wiped, or time-limited. Customer must remove or back up Customer Data before termination, expiration, cancellation, reclamation, reimaging, or support actions. Vistana may delete Customer Data after an Order expires, after termination, to protect security or system integrity, as required by Supplier Terms, or as otherwise stated in Order Terms.

6.5 Processing of Personal Information.

To the extent Customer Data includes personal data, personal information, or similar regulated information ("Personal Data"), Customer is the controller, business, or equivalent entity, and Vistana is the processor, service provider, or equivalent entity, unless Order Terms state otherwise. Customer authorizes Vistana to process Customer Data, including Personal Data, to provide, secure, support, maintain, bill for, monitor, improve, and troubleshoot the Services; to comply with law; to enforce these Terms; and as otherwise described in the Privacy Policy or Order Terms.

6.6 Data Processing Addendum.

If applicable privacy law requires a data processing agreement, Customer may request Vistana's data processing addendum at contact@vistana.ai. To the extent required by law, Vistana will process Personal Data in Customer Data only for the limited and specific purposes described in these Terms, Order Terms, and the data processing addendum, or as required by law.

6.7 Security Measures.

Vistana will maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect the Services under Vistana's control. Customer acknowledges that no service is perfectly secure and that Customer is responsible for securing Customer-controlled environments, credentials, applications, networks, ports, operating systems, containers, datasets, models, and access paths.

6.8 Support Access.

Customer authorizes Vistana and its contractors, service providers, and Suppliers to access Customer environments and Customer Data as reasonably necessary to provide, secure, support, investigate, maintain, repair, or improve the Services; respond to Customer requests; address fraud, abuse, or security issues; comply with law; or enforce these Terms.

7. Acceptable Use and Restrictions

7.1 Lawful Use.

7.4 Regulated Workloads.

Customer is solely responsible for determining whether Customer's workloads are subject to industry-specific rules, including health, financial, education, telecommunications, biometric, employment, defense, government, critical infrastructure, or consumer protection laws. Customer may not use the Services for regulated workloads unless Customer has all required rights, consents, notices, approvals, safeguards, and compliance controls. Vistana does not provide legal, medical, financial, or professional advice.

7.5 Monitoring and Enforcement.

Vistana may monitor use of the Services, Platform Data, telemetry, logs, network activity, account activity, and Customer Data to the extent reasonably necessary to operate, secure, support, bill for, improve, and enforce the Services; verify compliance; investigate abuse, fraud, or security issues; comply with law or legal process; protect Vistana, Suppliers, customers, and the public; and prevent harm. Vistana is not obligated to monitor all activity.

7.6 Suspension.

Vistana may immediately suspend, limit, isolate, throttle, disconnect, reclaim, or terminate access to all or part of the Services if Vistana reasonably believes that:

  • (a) Customer has breached these Terms, Order Terms, Supplier Terms, or applicable law;

  • (d) Customer fails to pay amounts when due or payment authorization fails;
  • (e) suspension is required by law, legal process, regulator request, Supplier requirement, or infrastructure provider requirement;
  • (f) suspension is necessary to protect Vistana, Suppliers, other customers, third parties, infrastructure, or the public; or
  • (g) capacity is unavailable due to emergency maintenance, supplier failure, force majeure, or other circumstances beyond Vistana's reasonable control.

Vistana will use reasonable efforts to provide notice and restore access when appropriate, but notice may be delayed or omitted where Vistana determines immediate action is necessary. Customer remains responsible for Fees incurred before or during suspension unless Vistana expressly states otherwise.

8. Compliance; Export Controls; Sanctions

8.4 Compliance Information.

Customer must provide information reasonably requested by Vistana to verify compliance with Trade Controls, know-your-customer obligations, anti-money laundering rules, tax rules, security requirements, Supplier Terms, and other legal or risk requirements. Vistana may suspend or terminate Services if Customer fails to provide requested information or if Vistana determines that providing Services may violate law or create unacceptable compliance risk.

8.5 Government Use.

Customer may stop using the Services at any time. Customer may terminate its account by providing notice to contact@vistana.ai, subject to any active Orders, minimum commitments, non-cancellable reservations, unpaid Fees, data export responsibilities, and other obligations that survive termination. Termination does not entitle Customer to refunds except as expressly required by Order Terms or applicable law.

The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for at least sixty days after Vistana receives the notice.

14.2 Binding Arbitration.

Except for claims that may be brought in small claims court, claims seeking only injunctive or equitable relief for unauthorized use of intellectual property or systems, or claims that applicable law does not permit to be arbitrated, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, Order Terms, the Services, or the relationship between Customer and Vistana will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its applicable rules. The arbitration will be conducted in English by a single arbitrator. The seat and venue of arbitration will be Wilmington, Delaware, unless the parties agree otherwise or the arbitrator determines that a remote proceeding is appropriate.

14.3 Federal Arbitration Act.

These Terms affect interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 14 to the fullest extent permitted by law. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve disputes regarding arbitrability, enforceability, interpretation, and scope of this arbitration agreement, except that a court will decide issues concerning the class action waiver in Section 14.5.

14.4 Exceptions.

Either party may seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property, confidential information, systems, Credentials, data, security, or infrastructure. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the claim qualifies. If a claim cannot legally be arbitrated, it must be brought only in the courts identified in Section 15.1.

14.5 Class Action and Representative Action Waiver.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CUSTOMER AND VISTANA AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, REPRESENTATIVE, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR PARTICIPANT IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY TO THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO RESOLVE THAT PARTY'S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM.

14.6 Jury Trial Waiver.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CUSTOMER AND VISTANA WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, ORDER TERMS, OR THE SERVICES.

14.7 Time Limit.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, Order Terms, or the Services must be filed within one year after the claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred.

15. Governing Law and Venue

15.1 Governing Law.

These Terms, Order Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Services are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except that the Federal Arbitration Act governs arbitration as stated in Section 14.

No rights are granted except as expressly stated in these Terms.

16.2 Confidentiality.

Non-public information disclosed by one party to the other that is marked confidential or should reasonably be understood to be confidential is "Confidential Information." The receiving party may use Confidential Information only to perform under these Terms and must protect it using at least reasonable care. Confidential Information does not include information that is publicly available without breach, already known without confidentiality obligation, independently developed, or rightfully received from a third party without confidentiality obligation. A party may disclose Confidential Information if required by law, provided it gives reasonable notice where legally permitted.

16.3 Assignment.

Customer may not assign or transfer these Terms, any Order, or any rights or obligations under them without Vistana's prior written consent. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section is void. Vistana may assign or transfer these Terms, Orders, and related rights and obligations to an affiliate, successor, acquirer, or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, sale of assets, financing, or change of control.

16.4 Force Majeure.

Vistana is not liable for delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, labor disputes, war, terrorism, civil unrest, epidemics, pandemics, government action, changes in law, power failures, internet or telecommunications failures, cyberattacks, supplier failures, data center failures, hardware shortages, export restrictions, or failures of third-party services.

16.5 Notices.

Vistana may provide notices by email to the address associated with Customer's account, through Vistana Compute, by posting on Vistana's website, or by other reasonable means. Notices are effective when sent or posted. Customer may provide legal notices to Vistana at contact@vistana.ai, unless Vistana specifies another notice method for a particular issue.

16.6 Electronic Records and Signatures.

Customer consents to electronic records, notices, disclosures, signatures, and contracting. Customer agrees that electronic acceptance of these Terms, Order Terms, invoices, and related records has the same legal effect as physical signature and delivery.

16.7 Publicity.

Vistana may identify Customer as a Vistana customer using Customer's name and logo in customer lists, websites, and marketing materials unless Customer notifies Vistana in writing that it opts out. Any other public announcement regarding the relationship requires Customer's consent.

Except for Vistana Parties, Suppliers, licensors, and service providers entitled to protection under these Terms, there are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.

16.10 Severability.

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. If modification is not permitted, the invalid provision will be severed without affecting the remaining provisions.

16.11 Waiver.

Failure to enforce a provision of these Terms is not a waiver. A waiver is effective only if in writing and signed by the waiving party. Remedies are cumulative unless expressly stated otherwise.

16.12 Third-Party Links and Services.

The Services may include links or integrations to third-party websites, products, services, repositories, packages, datasets, models, or tools. Vistana is not responsible for third-party resources and does not endorse them unless expressly stated.
