Customer shall be responsible for any breach of this Agreement by its Team Members. The prerequisites for accessing and using the Buildkite Solution are as set forth in the Documentation and Customer will be solely responsible for acquiring and maintaining all telecommunications and Internet services and other hardware and software required to access and use the Buildkite Solution, including, without limitation, all costs, fees, expenses, and taxes of any kind related to the foregoing.
