D&B Business Directory Addendum

This D&B Business Directory Addendum (the “Addendum”) supplements the General Terms and, taken together, form the agreement between D&B and Customer governing Customer’s access to and use of the D&B Business Directory (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms not defined in this Addendum have the meanings assigned to them in the General Terms & Conditions. If there is a conflict between this Addendum and the General Terms & Conditions solely with respect to the D&B Business Directory, this Addendum controls. For purposes of this Addendum, “You,” “Yourself,” “Your,” or “Customer” means the individual or single end-user organization agreeing to these Account Terms and using the Account.

1. Unlocked Business Profiles

Unlocked Business Profiles. Subject to these terms, You may unlock up to three (3) company profile views through the D&B Business Directory. Each unlock provides You with access to view additional business information and insights displayed in the applicable profile for thirty (30) consecutive days beginning when the profile is unlocked (the “30-Day Period”). During the 30-Day Period, You have access  to view the unlocked profile for an unlimited amount of times while logged into Your account. At the end of the 30-Day Period, access to view the additional information will automatically expire without notice, the profile will return to its locked version, and only information available on the locked profile will remain accessible. Any subsequent unlocks of an expired unlocked profile will count as an additional deduction from Your three-unlock limit and will begin a new 30-Day Period. Expiration of an unlocked profile does not restore or otherwise replenish Your number of remaining unlocks. Once You have used all three unlocks, You will not be permitted to unlock any additional profiles and must purchase an applicable D&B product or report to view additional detailed business information. D&B may suspend or terminate unlocked access if You violate these terms or attempt to circumvent the unlock limit, including through multiple accounts, shared credentials, automated means, or other deceptive or unauthorized activity.

The Unlocked Business Profiles shall be considered Sample Data as set forth in the General Terms & Conditions. For the avoidance of doubt, Sample Data is provided without warranty of any kind.

2. Artificial Intelligence Restrictions

In addition to the restrictions set forth in the General Terms & Conditions, Customer will not use the Information, or any enhancement, modification, or derivative work of the Information, in whole or in part, including in anonymized form, in connection with any artificial intelligence technology for any purpose, including to: (a) train, influence, optimize, or serve as a source for any artificial intelligence tool or system; (b) develop a substitute for the Information; (c) train any large language model; or (d) conduct research. For purposes of this Addendum, “Artificial Intelligence Technology” means any machine-based system, software, model, or application designed to operate with varying levels of autonomy and, for a given set of objectives, generate predictions, recommendations, content, or decisions that influence physical or virtual environments, including agentic artificial intelligence systems capable of performing tasks, making decisions, or taking actions with limited or no direct human interaction.

3. Third-Party Data Provider Terms

To the extent the D&B Business Directory or any related deliverable, product, service, report, or output includes or is derived from data, content, or materials supplied by Morningstar, Inc. or another third-party data provider (collectively, “Data Providers”), Customer must comply, and must ensure that its Authorized Users comply, with all applicable provider terms and restrictions communicated by D&B from time to time. Customer acknowledges and agrees that: (a) Data Provider information is provided “as is” and is not warranted to be accurate, complete, or timely, and no Data Provider is responsible for damages or losses arising from its use, except to the extent liability cannot be limited or excluded by applicable law; (b) Customer may use such information, and any report, output, or other material containing it (collectively, “Outputs”), only for Customer’s internal business purposes and as otherwise expressly permitted under the Agreement; (c) Customer will not export more than an insubstantial amount of such information from any product or service; and (d) Customer may distribute Outputs only when they are incorporated into a value-added report or presentation created using the applicable product or service, are distributed on a limited and ad hoc basis rather than through mass communications, external websites, or advertisements, and are not resold. Any other use or distribution requires the applicable Data Provider’s prior written consent and may be subject to additional fees. Customer will use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce these restrictions and will promptly suspend access and use upon becoming aware of any unauthorized activity.

4. Territorial Use Restrictions

The Business Directory and any unlocked profile content may be accessed and used only from, and for lawful business activities within, the country or territory identified by You during account registration and in which D&B makes the applicable access available. You must provide accurate and complete location and account information and may not access or use the Business Directory from, or for the benefit of any person or entity located in, a country or territory where such access or use is unavailable, restricted, or prohibited. You may not circumvent or attempt to circumvent territorial, technical, legal, data-display, privacy, export-control, or sanctions restrictions, including by using a virtual private network, proxy service, false location or account information, account sharing, multiple accounts, automated means, or any other deceptive or unauthorized method. Access to business information remains subject to all applicable local data suppression, privacy, export-control, sanctions, and other legal requirements, and the content or functionality available may vary by country or territory. D&B may verify Your location and account information and may restrict, suspend, or terminate access, without prior notice, if D&B reasonably determines that You have provided inaccurate information, accessed or used the Business Directory outside an authorized territory, attempted to evade applicable restrictions, or otherwise violated these terms or applicable law. 

5. Continuing Effect

Except as expressly modified by this Addendum, the Agreement remains unchanged and in full force and effect.
