AE Service Terms of Use

1. Welcome to the Appreciation Engine

MusicHype Inc. (“MusicHype”, “we”, “our” or “us”) has created these Terms of Use (these “Terms”) so that you can enjoy the benefits of our AE Service (as defined below) while protecting our rights. In these Terms, you are referred to as a “customer” or “you”. If you are agreeing to these terms on behalf of your company, then “customer” or “you” means your company and you represent that you are authorized to bind, and are binding, your company to these Terms.

These Terms will evolve along with the AE Service, and we will provide notice of amendments and modifications as described in Article 17 of these Terms.

Please read these Terms carefully. These Terms form a legal agreement between you and MusicHype that governs your use of the AE Service. You cannot make any changes, additions or deletions, and MusicHype may refuse you access to the AE Service for noncompliance with any part of these Terms. To use the AE Service, you must be of legal age to form a binding contract and not a person barred from receiving the AE Service under the laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction. MusicHype may grant or withhold approval to use the AE Service in its sole discretion.

By clicking on “I agree” (or a similar box or button) or using the AE Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. You may not use the AE Service if you do not agree to these Terms, as may be updated or amended by MusicHype.

2. The AE Service

These Terms govern your access to and use of our webpages and other documentation (“Documentation”), APIs, the AE dashboard, and SDKs (collectively, the “AE Service”) to implement social login and see deep customer analytics. To use the AE Service, you must process any forms and application requirements with the relevant social media sites to request information from your users. You must obtain consent from your users for any information you wish them to provide for collection and processing by the AE Service.

3. Registration

To access the AE Service, you must follow our registration process. We may approve or deny access to the AE Service in our sole discretion.

4. Use Rights

Subject to these Terms, you may use the AE Service solely to enable your products and services to access or interface with the AE Service. Your use shall be limited by these Terms, our Documentation and your license plan terms which you select and can view from within your account (as our Documentation and your license plan terms may be modified from time to time, and all of which are incorporated into these Terms). All of your rights are non-assignable, non-transferrable, and non-sublicenseable. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and our Documentation or license plan terms, the provisions of these Terms shall govern.

MusicHype may control and monitor your account for compliance purposes, and MusicHype reserves the right to enforce the Terms with or without notice to you. MusicHype has the right, but not the obligation, to investigate any reported or apparent violation of the Terms, and to take any action that MusicHype in its sole discretion deems appropriate.

5. Fees

Your AE Service fee will be issued each month after you create your AE account, unless you sign up using our trial plan, in which case no fee is due for the first 30 calendar days after you sign up. All payments will include the AE Service fee for the upcoming month of use. MusicHype will continue invoicing you monthly until these Terms are terminated in accordance with Article 16 of these Terms. You shall pay all fee amounts in US dollars.

We will send all invoices by email to you, or to the billing contact you provide, and charge your credit card automatically. If we cannot process your credit card, we will notify you by email. If you do not pay our invoice within seven calendar days after the invoice date (including without limitation if we cannot process your credit card), these Terms will be terminated in accordance with Article 16 of these Terms. You are responsible for payment of all taxes, duties fees, or other levies or charges which may be imposed on or in respect of the AE Service, in addition to the AE Service fee, except for taxes based on our net income.

6. Modifications

In our sole discretion, we may add, remove or modify any features of the AE Service, impose additional eligibility requirements or restrictions for access to the AE Service, or discontinue the AE Service. We may not provide you with notice of the changes. If you do not wish to use the AE Service as modified, your only recourse is to immediately discontinue use of the AE Service and close your AE Service account.

7. Branding and Publicity

18. General

(a) Entire Agreement; Waiver; Severability; Interpretation; Assignment; Remedies.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between MusicHype and you with respect to the subject matter in these Terms, and merge and supersede any and all prior proposals, understandings, representations and other communications between you and us, whether oral or written. Except for third parties related to MusicHype that may be indemnified under these Terms, these Terms do not create any third party beneficiary rights. If you do not comply with these Terms, and MusicHype does not take action right away, this does not mean that MusicHype is giving up any rights that MusicHype may have (including without limitation taking action in the future). If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect. In these Terms, “including” (and similar terms) are to be construed without limitation, and headings are for convenience only. You may not assign these Terms, in whole or in part, without MusicHype’s prior written consent, and any assignment without such consent is null and void. MusicHype may assign, transfer or delegate these Terms in its sole discretion. You acknowledge that your breach of these Terms may cause irreparable harm to MusicHype, the extent of which would be difficult to ascertain. Accordingly, you agree that, in addition to any other remedies to which MusicHype may be legally entitled, MusicHype shall have the right to seek immediate injunctive relief in the event of a breach of these Terms by you or any of your related companies, officers, employees, consultants, or other agents.

(b) Governing Law and Venue; Arbitration and Waiver of Jury Trial.

Regardless of your place of business, the laws of California, U.S.A., excluding California’s choice of law rules, apply to any disputes arising out of or related to these Terms, the AE Service or any other MusicHype property. All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms, the AE Service or any other MusicHype property shall be resolved by binding arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in Los Angeles County, California, rather than in court. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including without limitation injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Terms as a court would. We also both agree that we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights or our Confidential Information. You agree that all claims will be resolved exclusively in Los Angeles County, California, and you consent to personal jurisdiction there, and waive any claim of forum non-conveniens.

You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, you must file any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the AE Service or these Terms within one year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

(d) Force Majeure.

If the performance of MusicHype under these Terms is prevented, hindered, or otherwise made impractical because of flood, strike, war, acts of government, or any other casualty or cause beyond the control of MusicHype, then MusicHype shall be excused from its performance to the extent and as long as it is prevented, hindered, or delayed by any of these events.

(e) Type of Relationship Created.

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchisor-franchisee relationship is intended or created by these Terms or your use of the AE Service.
