7. Audit

Such audit(s) may include a review of all aspects of SendStreak’s performance, including, but not limited to, SendStreak’s general controls and security practices and procedures. SendStreak will cooperate with Client in conducting any such audit, and will allow Client reasonable access, during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice, to all pertinent records, documentation, computer systems, data, personnel and areas used to Process the Client Data areas as Client reasonably requests to complete such audit. Client will take reasonable steps to prevent the audit from materially impacting SendStreak’s operations.

7.2. SendStreak shall correct any deviations from Security Best Practices that are identified in any security audit as soon as practicable, but in no event more than five days after receiving notice from Client outlining any deviations (provided, however, that if five days is not a practicable cure period, then SendStreak may instead present a remediation plan to Client within such five day period that sets forth an achievable and reasonable timeframe, and SendStreak must thereafter diligently proceed to correct any deviations in accordance with such plan).
