Authorized Users. Customer may allow such number of Customer’s employees, independent contractors, and Customer’s customers as is indicated on an Order Form to use the applicable Platform on behalf of Customer as “Customer Users.” Additionally, if applicable to a Platform, Customer may allow such number of designees (“Vendor Users” and together with Customer Users, “Authorized Users”) and, subject to Company’s then-current Vendor Terms of Use, of its vendors (“Vendors”) as is indicated on an Order Form, and their personnel, to access each Platform in connection with such Vendor’s activity with Customer through such Platform.
