ITU-T Recommendations Online  –
Annual Subscription Service 		
	
Description of the Service
The annual subscription service called “ITU-T Recommendations Online” includes the Recommendations in force of the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector (formerly CCITT, now ITU-T) in English, French and Spanish. This service also includes pre-published and superseded Recommendations. Prepublished Recommendations are Recommendations that have not yet been edited but which are available to users (in their unfinished state). They are replaced by the final edited versions as soon as the latter are ready. Superseded Recommendations are Recommendations no longer in force, either because they have been withdrawn or because they have been replaced by more recent versions.
The Recommendations are organized by Series and are available as MS Word for WindowsTM and Adobe Acrobat PDF files.
More than 97 000 pages of Recommendations are presently available through the subscription service. As the publication of Recommendations is an ongoing process, this subscription service will ensure access to all new and revised Recommendations during the period of validity of the subscription.

for use of “ITU-T Recommendations Online” service
Annual Subscription Service	

1.	This Licence Agreement (hereinafter “Agreement”) relates to use of the ITU-T Recommendations Online service (hereinafter “Service”) by the Customer and/or Authorized Users.
2.	For the purposes of this Agreement, the words “Authorized User” signify an employee of the Customer authorized by the International Telecommunication Union (“ITU”) to use the Service in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
3.	The Customer receives from ITU a non-exclusive and non-transferable licence authorizing the Customer, as well as its Authorized Users, to use the service during the period of validity of the Agreement. The Customer shall ensure that the terms and conditions of the Agreement are adhered to by its Authorized Users, in particular by informing them of their rights and obligations thereunder.
4.	ITU publications are protected by copyright. No provision of this Agreement may be interpreted as constituting a renunciation of ITU’s copyright. The Customer undertakes to respect, and ensure that its Authorized Users respect, the copyright notice appearing on ITU publications.
5.	The Customer may not, without prior authorization from ITU (and subject to payment of any applicable fees), place any of the publications covered by this Agreement on an internal network or internal web. The Customer may not make the said publications available to third parties, in particular by placing them on an external network or external web.
6.	ITU has elaborated the Service with care and there is no reason to believe that it may contain any inaccuracies or defects. Nevertheless, ITU does not guarantee that the Service will be available without interruption or error, and disclaims all warranties, express or implied, in that regard. In no event may ITU be held liable for any damages (direct or indirect) whatsoever arising out of the use of the Service, including loss of business or other pecuniary losses. If, for technical reasons, the Customer is unable to begin using the Service, it must submit to ITU, within 30 days of the date of receipt of the access key(s), a detailed description of the technical problems encountered. In the event that the technical problems cannot be resolved, ITU shall refund to the Customer the amount paid in respect of the Service.
7.	The access keys constitute confidential information which must not be divulged to third parties. The Customer accepts full responsibility for the use that is made of the Service by means of its access key and/or those of its Authorized Users.
8.	This Agreement automatically expires one year after its entry into force, unless ITU receives, before the expiry date, the payment due from the Customer for the following year. In that case, the Agreement is renewed for the following year under the same terms and conditions. The foregoing notwithstanding, ITU reserves the right to refuse to renew the Agreement, in which case it shall so inform the Customer. ITU also reserves the right to terminate the Agreement at any time if, in its judgement, the Customer is failing to respect the terms and conditions thereof. In such a case, the Customer shall not be entitled to any refund. The Customer may terminate the Agreement at any time; however, such termination by the Customer, whatever the reason therefor, shall not entitle it to any refund by ITU.

9.	Any dispute between the Parties arising out of or in relation to this Agreement that cannot be settled amicably between them through direct negotiation shall be settled, at the request of one of the Parties, by a sole arbitrator acting in accordance with the rules of arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce in force at the date of signature of this Agreement. The place of arbitration shall be Geneva and the language of arbitration shall be English. The applicable law shall be Swiss law, with the exception of the provisions of Article 190 of the Swiss Federal Law on Private International Law of 18 December 1987. The arbitrator’s ruling shall be final, and any recourse to any court or tribunal against the arbitrator’s ruling shall be excluded.
10.	No provision of the Agreement may be interpreted as constituting a derogation or renunciation of the privileges, immunities or facilities enjoyed by ITU, particularly under any international agreement, any national law or the Headquarters Agreement or implementing arrangement thereof concluded with the Swiss Federal Council on 22 July 1971.
11.	The Agreement shall enter into force and be binding upon ITU only when the following three conditions have been met:
a)	receipt by ITU of the Agreement duly signed by the Customer;
b)	payment by the Customer of the annual charge for the Service;
