Legal Stuff

The terms of this Co-Marketing Addendum apply to co-marketing activities between a Hubspot for Startups Partner (“you” or “Partner”) and HubSpot, Inc., (“us” or “HubSpot”) in relation to HubSpot for Startups Growth Workshop(s) (also referred to as “Growth Workshop(s)” or “Growth Series” and defined below). Terms not otherwise defined herein will have the meanings set forth in the HubSpot For Startups Partner Agreement and the HubSpot Business Partner Data Processing Agreement. 

Growth Workshops are HubSpot for Startups (“HSFS”) hosted workshops which are designed to share tangible tactics startups can use to grow and scale their companies. The details of each Growth Workshop or Growth Series (collectively referred to as Growth Workshops), including a description of the content, workshop or series timing and target leads amount will be agreed to in writing by the partner and HubSpot before the start of the workshop(s). 

Nothing in this Co-Marketing Addendum obligates HubSpot to host the Growth Workshops or create content but if the parties agree to run the Growth Workshops and engage in co-marketing activities with respect thereto, these terms apply. 

With respect to HubSpot for Startups Growth Workshops, the HSFS Partner agrees to the following:

1. Growth Workshop Hosting and Lead Sharing

1.1. You must be an active HSFS Partner in good standing to participate in the Growth Workshops co-marketing activities. HubSpot will determine your status as an active partner in good standing at HubSpot's sole discretion.

1.2.  HubSpot will create all content for the Growth Workshops and host the Growth Workshops.

1.3. As host of the Growth Workshops, HubSpot will display the language that is substantially similar to text provided in Exhibit A below at the time of lead capture. You shall provide us with a valid and working link to your privacy policy prior to each Growth Workshop.

1.4. You will promote the Growth Workshops to your organization’s members. You will abide by your members’ communication preferences in doing so.

1.5. HubSpot will have the right to reproduce, distribute, and publicly display all content created for the Growth Workshops. Those rights will continue even after the end of the Growth Workshops and the expiration or termination of the HSFS partnership between the parties.

1.6. Unless agreed otherwise by the parties, you do not have the right to host the content yourself under this Co-Marketing Addendum and doing so will be a material breach that will allow us to terminate the letter agreement.

1.7. In this Co-Marketing Addendum, a “lead” is a person who submits their information to a contact information form. To be valid, a lead’s information must include their email address.

1.8. At the end of the HubSpot for Startups Growth Workshops, HubSpot will share generated leads with you.

1.9. No leads will be shared after the end of the Term of this Co-Marketing Addendum unless we each agree in writing (including via email) to a new Term of a defined nature.

2. Term and Termination

2.1. This Co-Marketing Addendum will start on the day you are approved as a HSFS Partner and will last until effective termination or expiration of your participation in the HFSF Partner Program in accordance with HubSpot For Startups Partner Agreement (“Term”).

2.2. Either of us may terminate this Co-Marketing Addendum without cause by giving fourteen (14) days’ written notice to the other party.

2.3. Termination of this Co-Marketing Addendum does not automatically terminate our partnership under the HubSpot For Startups Partner Agreement. However, this Co-Marketing Addendum will terminate immediately upon the effective termination or expiration of your participation in the HFSF Partner Program in accordance with section 8 of the HubSpot For Startups Partner Agreement, ‘8. Terms and Termination’.

2.4. In the event that one of us materially breaches this Co-Marketing Addendum, the other shall have the right to terminate the Co-Marketing Addendum upon written notice to the breaching party.

2.5. Neither of us will be required to share any leads after this Co-Marketing Addendum expires or terminates.

3. Trademarks

Each partner grants the other the right to display its trademarks and logos (“branding”) in connection with the Growth Workshops. Each of us will comply with the Trademarks Section of the HSFS Partner Agreement and any branding guidelines given by the other partner, and will immediately take down any specific uses of the other partner’s branding that that partner objects to. At any time after the HubSpot for Startups Growth Workshops are over or our HSFS Partnership terminates or expires, either partner may request that the other stop all use of their branding (including within the Growth Workshops content). Once asked to remove branding, the partner must do so immediately. 

4. Copyright

4.1. The partners agree that HubSpot will be the sole owner of all copyrights and other proprietary rights to the content presented at the Growth Workshops.

Each party agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless, at its expense, against any third-party claim, suit, action, or proceeding brought against the other party arising out of a breach or alleged breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties under the headings “Copyright” and “Trademarks”.
