USER SUBMISSIONS; GRANT OF LICENSE TO SPHE; YOUR WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS

The Site may enable you to send, post, upload, transmit through webcam or similar functionality or otherwise submit to the Site (including, without limitation, by allowing you to provide the URL of where a particular piece of your content resides), or otherwise display or exchange (including, without limitation, with other Site users) on or by means of the Site to other destinations, such as social networking pages (including, without limitation, to your Personal Social Media) (collectively, “Submit”), your videos, textual comments, photographs, images, or other creative works and/or other personal media content and your ideas, opinions, feedback, and other information, (collectively, your “User Submissions”), and such User Submissions will generally be available to all users of the Site or to others using the destinations (such as for example social networking pages) where you have submitted your User Submissions. By Submitting your User Submissions on or by means of the Site you expressly acknowledge and agree that you and only you will be responsible for the content of your User Submissions and for any consequences that may arise therefrom. Except as may otherwise be provided in any Special Rules, it is not SPHE’s regular, established practice to monitor, control, or have knowledge of the User Submissions Submitted using the Site, but SPHE may do so in its sole discretion. When you Submit (or attempt to Submit) your User Submissions on or by means of the Site, you automatically grant to SPHE and its affiliates, an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, unconditional, unrestricted, fully-paid, royalty-free, transferable, fully sublicenseable to multiple tiers of sublicensees, non-exclusive right and license (the “SPHE License”) to display, publicly perform, distribute (including, without limitation, through third-party Web sites, blogs, microblogs and other social networking media and Internet and mobile resources and applications), store, transcode, host, cache, maintain, broadcast, webcast, mobilecast, transmit, distribute, tag, track, reproduce, edit, modify, format, re-format, link to and from, translate, delete, create derivative works, combine with other content, categorize, and/or otherwise use, reuse and/or otherwise exploit your User Submissions (or any portions or derivative works thereof) and any names, likenesses, voices, images, digital recordings, performances, and other ideas, concepts, feedback and other materials included in your User Submissions, in any manner, medium or content delivery technology now known or hereinafter devised, for any purpose, as determined solely in SPHE’s (or its authorized designees/licensees’) sole discretion, without the requirement for any compensation to you or anyone else, or the need to require additional consent from you or anyone else, or the need to provide prior notification or any credit to you or anyone else. The SPHE License shall survive in perpetuity in accordance with its terms regardless of whether you stop using the Site or SPHE terminates your access to the Site. NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL BE DEEMED TO TRANSFER TO SPHE OR TO ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES ANY OWNERSHIP RIGHTS IN AND TO YOUR USER SUBMISSIONS, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT SPHE AND/OR ITS AFFILIATES AND/OR ITS LICENSORS WILL RETAIN SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE OWNERSHIP OF ANY OF THE SPHE LICENSED ASSETS (IF ANY) INCLUDED IN YOUR USER SUBMISSIONS. EVEN THOUGH BY SUBMITTING YOUR USER SUBMISSIONS YOU ARE GRANTING TO SPHE THE BROAD RIGHTS AND LICENSES SET FORTH ABOVE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTAND THAT NOTHING CONTAINED HEREIN SHALL OBLIGATE SPHE AND/OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR AUTHORIZED DESIGNEES TO HOST, DISTRIBUTE, DISPLAY OR OTHERWISE EXPLOIT ANY OF YOUR USER SUBMISSIONS OR EXERCISE ANY OTHER RIGHTS UNDER THE SPHE LICENSE. You acknowledge and agree that: (a) you have no expectation of confidentiality of any nature with respect to any of your User Submissions, and (b) SPHE and/or any of its affiliates may already have projects under consideration that are similar to your User Submissions or may independently develop projects that are similar to your User Submissions, or other User Submissions transmitted by other users of the Site may be similar or the same as your User Submissions. Because of the viral nature of social media, you should not submit any content or information to SPHE that you do not want to be viewed and “shared” or otherwise distributed by others. In connection with all of the User Submissions you Submit to the Site, and any other activities that you conduct on or by means of the Site, you represent, warrant and covenant that: (i) the User Submissions are original to you (in other words, that you own all rights in and to your User Submissions) or, alternatively, that you have acquired all necessary rights in your User Submissions to enable you to grant to SPHE the SPHE License; (ii) you have paid or satisfied and will pay or satisfy in full all license fees, clearance fees, royalties, and any other financial or third party obligations of any kind, if any, arising from any use or exploitation of your User Submissions, and SPHE will not be responsible for such obligations; (iii) your User Submissions do not infringe the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, publicity rights, or any other legal or moral rights of any third party; (iv) neither your User Submissions, nor any of the other activities that you undertake on the Site, are or will at any time be: defamatory or disparaging of any individual or entity, unlawful, pornographic, obscene, threatening, vulgar, indecent, profane, hateful, sexually explicit or sexually suggestive, intended to bully or harass or stalk, or resulting in bullying, harassing, or stalking, racially or ethnically or culturally offensive, or otherwise objectionable or encouraging of criminal conduct, or giving rise, or potentially giving rise, to civil or criminal liability, or linking to infringing or unauthorized content, or transmitting unsolicited advertising materials, or intended to result in, or resulting in, any mental or physical distress or injury to any person, violative of any Applicable Laws or these Terms, or violative of any person’s publicity or privacy rights; and (v) your User Submissions are not intended by you to benefit any commercial enterprise associated with you or any third party. You agree to keep all records necessary to establish that your User Submissions do not violate any of the foregoing representations and warranties and to make such records available to SPHE upon SPHE’s request.

SPHE is not responsible for any loss, theft or damage of any kind to any User Submissions.

You acknowledge that SPHE does not as a matter of its ordinary practice pre-screen any User Submissions submitted by you or other users of the Site but that SPHE (and/or any of its authorized designees) has the right to and may pre-screen or review after initial submission any of the User Submissions for a variety of reasons, including, without limitation, for compliance with these Terms or Applicable Laws, or if otherwise desired or necessary, as determined by SPHE in its sole discretion. SPHE shall have the right in its sole discretion to refuse, remove, edit, or disable any of your User Submissions (and/or any other Site users’ User Submissions) that violate these Terms or are otherwise objectionable, as determined by SPHE in its sole discretion, as well as terminate your and/or any Site user’s continued access to and/or other use of the Site (including, without limitation, access to and/or use of any of the Site Services, features or functionality available on or through the Site). SPHE does not control or endorse any User Submissions, and any User Submissions submitted to the Site do not reflect the opinions, views or policies of SPHE or any of its affiliates. SPHE disclaims any and all liability in connection with any and all User Submissions, and you agree to waive any legal or equitable rights or remedies you may have against SPHE or any of its affiliates with respect to such User Submissions.

If you remove or delete any of your User Submissions from the Site, that User Submission will be removed from the Site within a reasonable period of time. Nonetheless, a User Submission that you remove may still be available to third parties who previously acquired the link to that User Submission and SPHE may maintain copies for archival purposes.

SPHE reserves the right to display advertisements in connection with your User Submissions and to use your User Submissions to advertise and promote your User Submissions or the Site (in whole or in part) or any of SPHE’s products or services. You acknowledge and agree that you have no right or interest in any of the revenue generated from such advertisements.

These provisions shall remain in full force and effect in perpetuity notwithstanding any termination of your use of the Site.

THIRD PARTY LINKS

The Sites may link to and/or contain advertisements about, non-SPHE owned or controlled Web sites or other Internet or mobile resources. You acknowledge and understand that SPHE does not endorse or sponsor such other third party Web sites or other Internet resources and SPHE EXPRESSLY AND SPHECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY AND LIABILITY FOR ANY CONTENT, SOFTWARE, FUNCTIONALITY, SERVICES OR ADVERTISED PRODUCTS OR SERVICES FOUND ON OR RELATED TO ANY SUCH THIRD PARTY WEB SITE OR OTHER INTERNET OR MOBILE RESOURCES.

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SITE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SITE (AND ANY PORTION OF THE SITE) IS PROVIDED “AS IS” “WITH ALL FAULTS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SPHE AND ITS AFFILIATES EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT). Neither SPHE nor any of its affiliates make any warranties or representations about the accuracy or completeness of content available on or through the Site or the content of any Web sites, Personal Social Media or other Internet or mobile resources linked to the Site and assume no liability or responsibility for any: (i) errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies of content; (ii) personal injury or property damage, of any nature whatsoever, resulting from your access to or use of the Site (or any parts thereof); (iii) any unauthorized access to or use of SPHE’s secure servers and/or any and all personal information stored therein; (iv) any interruption or cessation of transmission to or from the Site; (v) any bugs, viruses, Trojan horses, or the like which may be transmitted to or through the Site (or any parts thereof) by any third party; and/or (vi) for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any User Submissions and/or other Site content posted, shared, forwarded, emailed, transmitted, or otherwise made available on or by means of the Site and/or otherwise through your or any other Site users’ exercise of any rights under any of the Licenses granted by SPHE herein. SPHE reserves the right, in its sole and exclusive discretion, to change, modify, add, remove or disable access to any portion of the Site (including, without limitation any of the Site Services).

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAWS, IN NO EVENT WILL SPHE OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPHECTIVE OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANYONE ELSE UNDER ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE) FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPHECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF REVENUES, PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF SUCH PARTIES WERE ADVISED OF, KNEW OF OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), RESULTING FROM YOUR USE (OR THE USE OF ANYONE USING AN ACCOUNT REGISTERED TO YOU) OF THE SITE OR ANY PARTS THEREOF.

EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the above limitations and disclaimers may not apply to you. To the extent SPHE may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any implied warranty or limit its liabilities, the scope and duration of such warranty and the extent of SPHE’s liability shall be the minimum permitted under such applicable law.

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless SPHE and its affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, licensees, authorized designees, successors and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses, fees (including reasonable outside attorneys’ fees and costs) that such parties may incur as a result of or arising from (i) any of your User Submissions; (ii) your exercise of any of your rights granted under the Licenses without your compliance with your responsibilities set forth in these Terms; (iii) the breach of any of your warranties, representations, covenants, responsibilities or other obligations set forth in these Terms; (iv) your violation of any person’s intellectual property, privacy, publicity or other right; (v) the violation of any Applicable Laws and/or these Terms by you and/or anyone using your registered account to access and/or otherwise use the Site (in whole or in part); or (vi) your willful misconduct or the willful misconduct of anyone accessing the Site through your registered account, in connection with your (and/or such other person’s) use of the Site (in whole or in part). SPHE reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with SPHE in asserting any available defenses. This provision shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any termination of your use of the Site.

1. Viewing a Movie; Compliance with Agreement

In consideration for your ability to play back the Movie(s) on your Authorized Device for viewing thereon, you agree to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, which are subject to change by SPHE at any time, in its sole discretion, with or without advance notice. In order to play back and view the Movie, you must: (i) have an Authorized Device, (ii) have a valid voucher/redemption/credit/receipt entitling you to play back the Movie(s) to an Authorized Device for viewing on such Authorized Device for no additional charge; (iii) have an Internet connection in order to redeem the voucher/redemption code/credits on the Site and to play back the Movie(s) on an Authorized Device, (iv) be in a supported territory, and (v) accept and agree to be bound by this Agreement.

2. Voucher/Redemption Codes/Credits

Voucher/redemption codes/credits cannot be redeemed for cash, and neither voucher/redemption codes/credits nor unused balances thereof are transferable. We are not responsible for lost or stolen voucher/redemption codes/credits. Use or redemption of the voucher/redemption codes/credits is subject to all applicable rules, expiration dates and any other limitations and restrictions associated with the applicable voucher/redemption codes/credits. Voucher/redemption codes/credits are void where prohibited, taxed or restricted by law. All Movie offerings are subject to change, cancellation or removal from the Site at any time by us without notice you. To the extent permitted by applicable law, voucher/redemption codes/credits will no longer be valid upon cancellation, expiration or removal from the Site.

3. Content License; Usage Rules

Subject to your acceptance of and compliance with this Agreement, upon redeeming the voucher/redemption codes/credits/receipt on the Site, SPHE will grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable limited right and license to play back a temporary copy of the selected Movie(s) and to view, use and privately display in your residence or for Permitted Non-Residential Use (as defined below), the Movie(s), only on the Authorized Device. Once you unlock the Movie(s) by redeeming the voucher/redemption codes/credits/receipt you may play back the Movie(s) on your Authorized Device an unlimited number of times, during the promotional period, provided you continue to comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Any attempt to copy, move, transfer the Movie(s) from the Authorized Device, or to disable or circumvent the DRM (as defined below) protecting the Movie(s) will be a violation of this Agreement and may render the Movie(s) unviewable, and you will not be entitled to receive a replacement. The term “Permitted Non-Residential Use” shall mean accessing, viewing or otherwise using the Movie(s) in hotels, bars, restaurants, public gathering areas, or in otherwise residential locations (e.g., an apartment house lobby or hotel lobby), provided that such viewing or use is solely for personal use and not for public display. In no event are you permitted to access, view or otherwise use any Movie(s) in any setting where an admission fee, cover charge or similar fee is charged.

Any violation of copyright laws may be subject to severe civil and criminal penalties.

5. System Requirements

Use of the Site, including viewing, playing back, or otherwise accessing Movies, requires Internet access and at least one compatible device, and may require certain software and the obtaining of updates or upgrades thereto from time to time. You are responsible for any fees associated therewith.

Because use of the Site involves hardware, software, and Internet access, your ability to use it may be affected by the performance of these factors as well as by changes in these technologies over time.

You acknowledge and agree that such system requirements, which may be revised from time to time, are your responsibility. You further acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for failure in proper configuration or limitations of your devices. The Site and Movies are independent of such other products, services and offerings, and the purchase or obtaining of any such product, service or offering does not guarantee your access to the features and functionality of the Site.

6. Digital Rights Management Systems.

The Movie(s) is protected by Digital Rights Management Systems (“DRMs”). DRMs are designed to manage and enforce intellectual property rights in digital content. You may not take any action to circumvent or defeat the security or content usage rules provided or enforced by the DRMs. DRMs may be able to revoke your ability to use applicable content. SPHE is not responsible for the operation of the DRMs in any way, including revocation of your Movie(s). SPHE is not responsible for any communications to or from any third party DRMs. You consent to the communications enabled and/or performed by the DRMs, including automatic updating of the DRMs without further notice.

Other than as expressly provided herein, this Agreement gives you no express or implied license or other rights to the Movie(s) or Software, including without limitation, any right to use, sell, rent, copy, distribute, broadcast, modify, perform or publicly display any Movie(s) or Software.

8. Delivery of Digital Content.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you will not receive a refund or credit for any Movie that you are not able to view or have difficulty viewing due to variables not under our control, including but not limited to, the speed and availability of your broadband or network connection or anything specific to your hardware or software that would inhibit viewing such as errors or noncompliance with stated specifications.

You bear all risk of loss for accessing the Movie that you are authorized to access, including ensuring that you have the necessary capabilities to view Movies (e.g., high resolution, if applicable). You are solely responsible if you do not access a Movie before it is removed from the Site, and for ongoing storage and safekeeping. We are not obligated to provide you with replacement copies for any reason.
