IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, DO NOT TAKE ANY PART IN A COHESITY PROGRAM.

Additional Terms & Conditions:

1. Program Rules. You agree to be bound, in addition to these T&Cs, to all terms, conditions, eligibility requirements and other rules published or applied by Cohesity from time to time in respect of a Program (collectively the “Program Rules”). You agree that any reward, payment, or other incentive offered in connection with a Program is subject at all times to You correctly and timely registering for such Program, compliance with these T&Cs, and compliance with all of the Program Rules in effect from time to time.

Programs may not be made available to all persons and may not be available in all locations.
