You may not, and no right is granted to You to copy, modify, or disassemble, or permit others to copy, modify, or disassemble, the Embedded Software, nor may You modify, adapt, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, or otherwise attempt to derive source code from the Embedded Software.  You shall not transfer possession of the Embedded Software except as part of, or with, the Equipment, such transfer being subject to the restrictions contained herein.  You may not sublicense, assign or otherwise transfer the Embedded Software, except upon CheckVideo’s prior written consent.  You shall not engage in any act or omission that would impair CheckVideo’s and/or its licensors’ Intellectual Property Rights (as defined below) in the Embedded Software or the Equipment.  Use of the Embedded Software must comply with all applicable laws, including United States export regulations. You acknowledge and agree that, except as specifically set forth in this Agreement, You do not acquire under this Agreement any rights of use or ownership with respect to any trade names, trade dress, trademarks, service marks, commercial symbols, copyrightable material, designs, logos and/or any other intellectual property of CheckVideo.  You further acknowledge that the Embedded Software, although copyrighted, is unpublished and contains proprietary and valuable information of CheckVideo and/or its licensors and is considered to be trade secrets of CheckVideo and/or its licensors.  Any attempt to access the source code of the Embedded Software or to modify the Embedded Software will void all warranties provided in this Agreement.

2.  Inspection, Installation and Warranty

a.    Inspection.  If You are performing your own equipment installation, immediately upon receipt, You should inspect the Equipment. Unless You give CheckVideo notice of defects within ten (10) days of the date You receive the Equipment, it shall be conclusively presumed that You have fully inspected and acknowledged that the Equipment is in good condition and repair and is performing satisfactorily, and that You are satisfied with and have accepted such Equipment in such good condition and repair.  You shall not make any alterations, modifications or attachments to the Equipment. Any modifications or adjustments made to the Equipment by You, or a third party, without CheckVideo’s prior approval shall void the warranty provisions set forth below.

b.    Installation.  Unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing, You are solely responsible for the proper installation of the Equipment.  You assume any and all liability arising from installation of the Equipment, including without limitation liability arising from personal injury to You and any third parties. You shall strictly abide by any CheckVideo installation procedures provided with the Equipment or otherwise provided to You by CheckVideo. CheckVideo reserves the right to update such procedures from time to time. Since installation of the Equipment is Your sole responsibility, You shall remain solely liable under this Section for any and all liability arising from installation of the Equipment, regardless of whether it follows CheckVideo’s installation procedures.   CheckVideo’s obligation shall be limited to replacement or repair for any Equipment that is not performing in accordance with the documentation supplied with the Equipment, provided that the failure was not caused by You, as determined by CheckVideo in its sole discretion. You agree to abide by CheckVideo’s current Equipment return policy, as specified to You by CheckVideo.

c.    Limited Warranty. CHECKVIDEO WARRANTS TO YOU, THAT (A) THE EQUIPMENT, EXCLUDING EMBEDDED SOFTWARE, WILL BE MATERIALLY FREE FROM DEFECTS IN MATERIALS AND WORKMANSHIP UNDER NORMAL USE, AND (B) WITH RESPECT TO EMBEDDED SOFTWARE, (I) THE MEDIA ON WHICH THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED WILL BE FREE FROM DEFECTS IN MATERIAL AND WORKMANSHIP UNDER NORMAL USE, AND (II) THE EMBEDDED SOFTWARE WILL PERFORM MATERIALLY AS DESCRIBED IN ITS DOCUMENTATION (THE “LIMITED WARRANTY”). THIS LIMITED WARRANTY TO YOU, EXTENDS ONLY TO THE ORIGINAL PURCHASER OF THE PRODUCT, AND CONTINUES (A) FOR EMBEDDED SOFTWARE AND THE MEDIA UPON WHICH IT IS PROVIDED, FOR A PERIOD OF THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE FROM CHECKVIDEO OR AN AUTHORIZED CHECKVIDEO RESELLER, AND (B) FOR THE EQUIPMENT (EXCLUDING EMBEDDED SOFTWARE AND ANY MICROSD CARD OR SIMILAR MEMORY/STORAGE COMPONENT), FOR A PERIOD OF TWO (2) YEARS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE FROM CHECKVIDEO OR FROM AN AUTHORIZED CHECKVIDEO RESELLER. THIS LIMITED WARRANTY IS CONDITIONED UPON THE PROPER INSTALLATION AND NORMAL USE BY YOU IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE DOCUMENTATION ACCOMPANYING THE EQUIPMENT AND WITH OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTATION PROVIDED TO YOU.  SUCH LIMITED WARRANTY DOES NOT APPLY WHATSOEVER TO ANY NONCONFORMANCE CAUSED BY MODIFICATION, MISUSE, ABUSE, ACTS OF GOD (SUCH AS HURRICANES OR FLOODS) OR ANY USE BY YOU NOT IN COMPLIANCE WITH ALL THESE TERMS.  TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THIS LIMITED WARRANTY OR TO OBTAIN TECHNICAL SUPPORT, YOU MUST CALL THE CHECKVIDEO PHONE NUMBER (BELOW) DURING THE APPLICABLE WARRANTY PERIOD AND COMPLY WITH ALL REQUIRED PROCEDURES FOR THE DETERMINATION OF THE PROBLEM AND/OR RETURN AND REPLACEMENT OF THE EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, CHECKVIDEO’S RETURN POLICY DESCRIBED BELOW.

3.  Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability & Indemnity

a.    Limitation of Liability.  IN NO EVENT SHALL CHECKVIDEO BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PARTY FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR INDIRECT DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE SAME, HOWEVER CAUSED AND REGARDLESS OF THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER TORT, CONTRACT, OR STRICT LIABILITY.  FOR ANY LIABILITY RELATED TO THE EQUIPMENT, CHECKVIDEO’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY FOR ANY AND ALL DAMAGES ASSERTED BY YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY SHALL IN NO EVENT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU FOR THE EQUIPMENT.

b.   Disclaimer.  Because it is impossible for CheckVideo to know the purposes for which You acquired this Equipment or the uses to which You will put this Equipment, You will assume full responsibility for the selection of the Equipment and for its installation and use. While every reasonable effort has been made to insure that You will receive Equipment that You can use and enjoy, CheckVideo does not warrant that the functions of the Equipment will meet Your requirements or that the operation of the Equipment will be uninterrupted or error-free. CHECKVIDEO IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR PROBLEMS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY THE INTERACTION OF THE PRODUCT WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE OR HARDWARE OR SERVICES OF THIRD PARTIES. ALL WARRANTIES ARE VOID IF THE EQUIPMENT IS OPENED, ALTERED, AND/OR DAMAGED.

EXCEPT DURING THE TERM OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY, THE EQUIPMENT, EMBEDDED SOFTWARE, AND ANY OTHER MATERIALS, SOFTWARE, DATA AND/OR SERVICES PROVIDED BY CHECKVIDEO ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS,” AND CHECKVIDEO EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND OR NATURE, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTIES OF OPERABILITY, CONDITION, NONINFRINGEMENT, NON-INTERFERENCE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, VALUE, ACCURACY OF DATA, OR QUALITY, AS WELL AS ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, SYSTEM INTEGRATION, WORKMANSHIP, SUITABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR THE ABSENCE OF ANY DEFECTS THEREIN, WHETHER LATENT OR PATENT.

THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR USE ONLY TO FACILITATE MONITORING AND IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR A SECURITY SYSTEM. CHECKVIDEO HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER THAT MAY ARISE FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THIS PRODUCT AS A SECURITY SYSTEM. IN NO EVENT SHALL CHECKVIDEO BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR OTHER DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE EQUIPMENT AS A SECURITY SYSTEM (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR INJURY, LOSS OF PROPERTY, BUSINESS PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, LOSS OF INFORMATION OR ANY OTHER PECUNIARY LOSS), OR FROM ANY BREACH OF WARRANTY, EVEN IF CHECKVIDEO HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

THIS EQUIPMENT MAY EMPLOY WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY AND, IN SOME CASES, MAY FACILITATE TRANSMISSION OF DATA OR VIDEO OVER THE INTERNET OR OTHER COMMUNICATION NETWORKS IN CONNECTION WITH ITS USE. IN THE EVENT THE INTERNET OR OTHER COMMUNICATION NETWORKS AND/OR WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY IS UNAVAILABLE, YOU MAY NOT BE ABLE TO USE CERTAIN FEATURES OR FUNCTIONS OF THE EQUIPMENT. SUCH CONNECTIVITY AND/OR FUNCTIONS OR FEATURES MAY REQUIRE THE PROVISION OF SERVICES BY A THIRD PARTY, AND CHECKVIDEO IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR SUCH AGREEMENTS, CONNECTIVITY OR PROVIDING THOSE FUNCTIONS OR FEATURES.  YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT CHECKVIDEO HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE AVAILABILITY OR PERFORMANCE OF THE INTERNET, OTHER COMMUNICATION EQUIPMENT NOT PROVIDED BY CHECKVIDEO OR WIRELESS SERVICES, AND THAT CHECKVIDEO IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE UNAVAILABILITY OF THE INTERNET, OTHER EQUIPMENT, WIRELESS SERVICES OR ANY INTERRUPTIONS OF WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY. YOU SHOULD FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT ALL WIRELESS TRANSMISSIONS MAY BE SUBJECT TO INTERCEPTION AND THAT DATA TRANSMISSIONS OVER THE INTERNET CANNOT BE GUARANTEED TO BE 100% SECURE. AS A RESULT, CHECKVIDEO CANNOT ENSURE OR WARRANT THE SECURITY OF ANY VIDEO OR DATA TRANSMITTED BY OR THROUGH THIS EQUIPMENT, WHETHER OR NOT TRANSMITTED VIA THE INTERNET, AND YOU USE SUCH EQUIPMENT AT YOUR OWN RISK.

c.    Essential Basis.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS PURSUANT TO WHICH CHECKVIDEO HAS SOLD YOU THE EQUIPMENT AND LICENSED THE EMBEDDED SOFTWARE FOR USE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS AGREEMENT, AND, ABSENT ANY OF SUCH DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY, THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS GOVERNING SUCH USE (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE ECONOMIC PROVISIONS) WOULD BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT. IN THE EVENT AND TO THE EXTENT THAT ANY TERM OF CONDITION SET FORTH ABOVE IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION, THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SHALL BE CONSTRUED, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, TO GIVE EFFECT TO SUCH PROVISIONS.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH JURISDICTION SUCH OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITY OF CHECKVIDEO SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

d.    Indemnity.  You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless CheckVideo from any suits, losses, claims, demands, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney fees) that CheckVideo may sustain or incur from Your use of the Equipment or from Your breach of any of Your obligations or any restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

B.  SERVICES TERMS AND CONDITIONS

The Sections below relate to the terms and conditions specifically applicable to the Website and Services.  The terms governing your use of the Equipment and Embedded Software are set out above under the heading “Equipment Terms and Conditions.” This Agreement applies to the Services currently offered by CheckVideo and any Services that CheckVideo may choose to offer in the future (unless stated otherwise).  In addition, use of particular Services will be subject to any posted guidelines and/or rules that may be posted in connection with those Services from time to time and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

1.  CheckVideo’s Use of Independent Contractor to Provide Application Services.   The term “Provider,” when used in this Agreement, shall refer to CheckVideo as well as any independent contractor(s) engaged by CheckVideo to perform some or all of the Services. CheckVideo has contracted with an independent contractor to provide some or all of the Services, including without limitation the storage of images that You may record using the Services. You acknowledge and consent to the provision of some or all of the Services by any independent contractor(s) engaged by CheckVideo for such purposes. You also acknowledge and consent to the use of a reputable third-party payment processing service in connection with the receipt and processing of payments for the Services.

2.   Description of Services.   

a.        The Services include an Internet protocol-based facility for viewing and/or recording images (“Images”) and receiving data (“Data”) generated by, or as a result of using, video cameras and other related products that are purchased and installed by You, or on Your behalf by a third party. The Images may be a “live” or recorded video stream, or one or more “still” video images. The Data may consist of data produced as a result of analysis of the Images, or from contact, temperature, water, or other sensors, to the extent such sensors are available and supported by the system.

b.       In order to use this Website or the Services, You must register and create an account.  You agree to provide only accurate and complete registration information, including Your real name and email address.  The Services include the ability to designate Authorized Individuals (“Authorized Individuals”) to access Your Images and Data. You agree to provide only accurate and complete information for Authorized Individuals, including real name and email address. Authorized Individuals may include a Monitoring Services Provider (MSP) with whom you have contracted. You are solely responsible for obtaining the necessary permission and rights to designate such individuals as Authorized Individuals under Your account and to authorize CheckVideo to provide the Images and Data to such Authorized Individuals, and you represent and warrant that you have the foregoing rights.   Certain Services are only available to premium users, which are those registered users who have submitted payment of all applicable services fees to us in order to access and/or view certain premium Services.  As a premium user, prior to receiving the Services, You must submit an order for the Services by selecting the Services You wish to access and submitting all applicable fees, which are due and payable at the time of Your order for the Services in accordance with Section B(12) below.

c.         In some cases, You (or an Authorized Individual) may set controls through Your account to provide for automatic or manual operation of Image recording. The Images and Data (both of which may only be obtained or stored consistent with the Intended Use set forth below in Section B(13) may be recorded, stored, backed-up and archived by Provider. You may use up to 50 megabytes of storage per device for such purposes at any given time, or such additional storage as CheckVideo may permit in its sole discretion from time to time.  Any storage that exceeds the limit set forth above may be deleted without notice and will be unrecoverable, and  You acknowledge and agree that Provider will not be liable for the removal or deletion of such excess information, including, without limitation, Images and Data.

d.       You are responsible for establishing, configuring, and using the Services and Your video camera(s) and related products in a lawful manner and for obtaining any transmission or Internet access service and related facilities. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of all passwords that may be issued to You in connection with the use of the Services.

e.       The Services do not include monitoring of Your Images or Data by Provider for any reason other than as set forth in Section B(13) below, and the Services, including the Images and Data, are not intended to be used as a security system or a component of a security system. You have the right, but not the obligation, to contract with a Monitoring Service Provider (MSP).  The Monitoring Service Provider may use the Services as a tool to assist in the monitoring of Your premise(s), house, office or property but not as a security system by itself, a substitute for appropriate, in-person adult supervision of children, the elderly, or others in need of such supervision, or as a replacement for any safety or security devices.

f.       Your CheckVideo product may be enabled (either automatically or manually) to port forward data via a UPNP enabled router on your behalf, which will require CheckVideo to auto-configure the router each time the internal IP address of the particular CheckVideo device is changed.  In the event this feature is enabled, You acknowledge and agree that such auto-configuration will occur without reauthorization unless and until you disable this feature through your account settings.   Please note that if this feature is disabled, remote viewing of live video via a mobile device and use of DVR features will not be available until You manually configure port forwarding between Your router and the CheckVideo device.

g.      CheckVideo may enable Services such as DVR recording which requires the CheckVideo device to reformat your media storage devices (i.e. USB drive or internal microSD card).  In the event You elect to use and/or enable this type of Service, You hereby acknowledge and agree that Provider shall have the right to reformat such device and that any data or information previously written to the device will be lost, and that Provider shall not be held liable for any loss or removal of such information.

3.       Provider’s Control Over Website; Your Control Over Data and Images  

a.     The Images and other Data collected and stored by You, or on Your behalf, are Your property. Provider will not appropriate Your Images or Data without Your written consent, provided that Provider may act and use the Images and Data consistent with the purposes set forth below or in CheckVideo’s Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”). Click here to view CheckVideo’s Privacy Policy: https://www.checkvideo.com/privacy.   We know that your privacy is important. For this reason, we have created a Privacy Policy that describes our collection, use and disclosure practices regarding any personal information that You provide to us.  The security of your personal information is important to us. While there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet, we will take reasonable steps to help ensure the safety of your personal information. However, You understand and agree that such steps do not guarantee that the Website and the Services are invulnerable to all security breaches or immune from viruses, security threats or other vulnerabilities.

b.     Provider reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to correct any errors or omissions in any portion of the Website or any related software that may be used to provide the Services.

Provider may provide any data or information, including Your stored Images and any other Data and Your confidential or identity information, in response to a formal request in a civil action that on its face meets the requirements for such a request.

d.     Provider does not control any information, images or material posted (collectively, the “Postings”) on the Website by other users and, therefore, Provider does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of such Postings.

CheckVideo reserves the right to withhold, remove and/or discard Images or Data without notice for any breach by You of this Agreement.   Certain features and functions of the Services may enable You to share your Images and Data with third parties or post images to various third party sites.  In the event that You choose to use such features and/or share your Images or Data with others through the Website or Services, You do so at your own risk, and You are solely responsible for compliance with all rules, regulations, policies and third party agreements with respect to such sharing and third party sites.

g.     You acknowledge and agree that any storage of Images and Data is subject to the storage capacity limit of the Services as set forth in Section B(2)(c) and as may be modified by CheckVideo, in its sole discretion, upon written notice to You of such modification (“Data Limit”), and that any storage of Images and Data that exceeds the then-current Data Limit may be deleted without notice and will be unrecoverable.  CheckVideo reserves the right to establish or modify its general practices relating to storage of Data and Images.  If this Agreement is terminated, You will no longer be authorized to access any areas of the Website or use the Services, and any of Your Images or Data being stored by Provider will be subject to deletion (without backup) at any time.  CheckVideo shall have no obligation to retain any of Your Images or Data upon termination of this Agreement for any reason.

4.       CheckVideo’s Right to Amend Agreement or Limit Services. 

a.     CheckVideo reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change, modify, add or remove any portion of this Agreement, in whole or in part, at any time, without notice. Amendments to the Agreement will take effect immediately upon being posted to the Website, and Your continued use of the Website or Services constitutes Your acceptance thereof.

b.     CheckVideo may change, suspend or discontinue any aspect of the Website or Services at any time, for any reason, including, but not limited to, content, services offered, products offered, service levels, features and functionality, database, hours of availability, promotional and trial offers, and equipment or software needed for access or use.  Additionally, CheckVideo cannot control the content, services offered, products offered, service levels, features and functionality, database, hours of availability, promotional and trial offers, and equipment or software needed for access or use offered by its partners like Sprint or any MSP with whom you contract.

CheckVideo may, with or without cause, immediately terminate this Agreement, and deny You access to the Website and Services.  Without limiting the foregoing, CheckVideo has the right to immediately terminate any passwords or accounts created by You in the event that You fail to pay any amounts that you owe CheckVideo in a timely manner or otherwise breach this Agreement or engage in conduct that CheckVideo, in its sole discretion, considers unacceptable. In the event of termination of this Agreement, your restrictions and CheckVideo’s rights under this Agreement shall survive any such termination.

2.    Breach.

CheckVideo may, in its sole discretion, immediately issue a warning, temporarily suspend, indefinitely suspend, or terminate Your account if You breach this Agreement or if CheckVideo is unable to verify or authenticate any information You have provided. CheckVideo’s failure to act with respect to a breach by You or others does not constitute a waiver of CheckVideo’s right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. Without limiting any other rights CheckVideo has, You understand and acknowledge that CheckVideo, in its sole discretion, may pursue legal and/or equitable relief against You if You breach or threaten to breach this Agreement.

3.  GOVERNING LAW.

4.   Miscellaneous.
