Storage and User Based Pricing Terms

WIP APP Limited and its wholly owned subsidiary, Wipster Inc (collectively Wipster), welcomes you as a user of the Wipster Services. The Wipster Service provides a platform for you to share and review your work-in-progress videos, images and PDFs, subject to the following terms of service and Wipster’s Privacy Policy, which may be updated at any time (together our Terms of Service). Any amendments to the Terms of Service will be posted on our Website and will be effective immediately upon such posting. You are responsible for ensuring you are familiar with our latest Terms of Service and your continued use of our Service will be deemed acceptance of any updates. Commonly used words in these Terms of Service are defined at the end, in Section 18.

1 Description of Services

1.1. Wipster provides a platform for content makers to share and review their work-in-progress Media Assets, as set out in more detail in this Section (Services).

1.2 You may sign up to use the Services by completing the application form on the Website or via Facebook or Google and providing Wipster with certain details. You must complete all information requested accurately and truthfully. Once you sign up to use the Services, Wipster will create an account for you and you will become a member (Member).

1.3 Once you are a Member you will be provided with a login and password to enable you to access the Services. You agree not to share any of the information or resources provided as part of the Services with any other party except as specified in the Terms of Service, and you will not allow any person not employed by or affiliated with your business to use your log-in information and password to access the Services. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of log-in information and for restricting access to your computer, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password.

1.4 As a Member you will be entitled to use the Services as follows:

1.4.1 You can upload a Media Asset to the Website. Any Media Asset uploaded will be encoded by Wipster into multiple formats to support various internet capable devices including desktop browsers, smartphones and tablets.

1.4.2 You will be able to invite other members to access the Service via your account (each a Team Member). However, you should be aware that each Team Member you invite to access the Service will count towards any user based limits included in your plan (see Sections 3 and 10).

1.4.3 You will also be able to invite a number of people to view the Media Asset (each called a Reviewer). Wipster will send each Reviewer an individual link to the Media Asset which you wish to invite them to review which will enable the Reviewer to view the Media Asset and comment on that Media Asset. The email sent to each Reviewer will identify you as the person who invited them to review the relevant Media Asset, brief details of the Media Asset and will enable you and Wipster to identify each Reviewer’s comments. You will not input bulk Reviewers or use the invite function to send unsolicited emails (otherwise known as “spam”) to individuals or otherwise use the invite function to harass others. Reviewers will not count towards any user based limits included in your plan.

1.4.4 Each Reviewer may comment and/or provide feedback on the particular Media Asset sent to them at any particular point in that Media Asset. You will be advised when a comment has been made on your Media Asset and you will be able to view each comment and respond to it.

1.4.5 All Reviewers are able to see comments made on the Media Asset.

1.4.6 All Reviewer comments are collated into a “to do” list which will only be visible and available to the Member who posted the original Media Asset.

1.5 The Services may be modified, improved and/or varied by Wipster at any time and at Wipster’s sole discretion. Any such modifications, improvements or variations will be advised to you from time to time.

1.6 The Services may also be made available to you through the APP for so long as Wipster makes its APP available, but subject to you complying with Section 17 and you having registered on the Website first.

1.7 The use of our Services is subject to a Fair Use Policy in respect of any features that not limited to a particular number, volume, amount or similar as part of that feature.

1.8 The use of our Services is subject to Limit Policies as described in Sections 3 and 10.

2 Members and Reviewers

2.1 Wipster will send invitations to review a particular Media Asset to each Reviewer you identify. Wipster is not responsible for checking or verifying in any way the identity of contact details of any Reviewer. As a Member, you have sole responsibility for the email addresses or other contact details for each Reviewer that you invite to view and comment on any of your Media Assets.

2.2 Because one of the major attractions of the Services is the ease of use, Wipster does not require any Reviewer to log in, use a password, or otherwise identify themselves before accessing the link to any Media Asset sent to them. You expressly acknowledge this and agree to all invited Reviewers being able to access any of your Media Assets they are invited to review in this manner.

2.3 Wipster will include a disclaimer and warning in all emails, or other communications, sent to a Reviewer inviting them to review a particular Media Asset stating that if they do not know the Member who sent the invite to them they are not permitted to review the Media Asset or comment on it, that they may not forward the link or Media Asset to any other person, and that they are responsible for the content of any comments that they make. However, Wipster and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, employees and agents expressly exclude any liability including but not limited to liability for breach of confidentiality, defamation, for:

2.3.1 an invitation being sent to someone not intended to be a Reviewer as a result of an incorrect email address and/or other methods of contact for the Reviewer;

2.3.2 any comments made by any Reviewer whatsoever, including without limitation any comments that are or may be defamatory; or

2.3.3 any Reviewer forwarding the link and/or Media Asset to any other person.

2.4 As a Member you expressly acknowledge the above limitations and agree that you will take all necessary steps to ensure that you are satisfied that the people that you invite to review your Media Assets are advised accordingly and will comply with your directions. The exclusion of liability in this Section does not limit anything in Sections 12 and 13 of these Terms of Service.

3 Use of Website, APP and Services

3.1 Wipster grants you a limited and personal right to access and make use of the Services through the Website and if applicable, the APP. This right does not include any resale of the Website, APP, their content or the Services or any derivative use of the Website, APP, their contents or the Services. The Website, APP, the Services or any portion of the Website, APP or Services may not be reproduced, duplicated, copied, sold, resold, visited, or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose without our express written consent. You may not frame or utilize framing techniques to enclose any trademark, logo, or other proprietary information (including images, text, page layout, form or any of the Services) of Wipster and our affiliates without our express written consent. Any unauthorized use terminates the rights granted by Wipster.

3.2 If you upload any Media Assets that will cause you to breach the storage limit of the plan which you subscribe for (Storage Limit), then you must undertake corrective action as described in Section 10.

3.3 If your plan allows for multiple Team Members to access the Services via your account and you enable more Team Members (including yourself) to access your account than the allowable number specified in your plan (User Limit), then you must take corrective action as described in Section 10. For the avoidance of doubt, a reference to Team Members in this clause does not include Reviewers.

3.4 You shall not:

3.4.1 unless you are on a specific plan for such use of our Services (as determined by us in our sole discretion), load long form videos including but not limited to film, movie or television content, or other large video files;

3.4.2 large or raw format image files; or

3.2.3 take any action that causes or may cause (as determined by us in our sole discretion) an unreasonable or large load on our (or our third party providers’) infrastructure or Services. Wipster reserves the right to introduce specific size limits on Media Assets and as part of undertaking digital rights restrictions to ensure that these limits are adhered to as part of accessing and using the Services.

3.5 You may not modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or create derivative works of the Services (or any part of them) or otherwise attempt to:

3.5.1 defeat, avoid, bypass, remove, deactivate or otherwise circumvent any software protection mechanisms in the Services (or any part of them), including, without limitation, any such mechanism (including the Website and/or APP) used to restrict or control the functionality of the Services (or any part of them); or

3.5.2 derive the source code or the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization form of the Services (or any part of them).

4 Intellectual Property

4.2 We believe that Wipster’s use of the Rights in connection with the Services is legitimate and in accordance with applicable law governing the use of intellectual property; however, if it is determined that Wipster’s use or your use of any Rights infringes upon the intellectual property rights of any other party, Wipster reserves the right to discontinue the availability of any Services which incorporate the use of such infringing Rights.

4.3 Wipster acknowledges that the content and any intellectual property of any Media Asset you upload and any comments made by Reviewers (Reviewer Comments) remain the property of you or, to the extent applicable, the relevant Reviewer(s). However, each Member and each Reviewer grants to Wipster a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the contents of any Media Assets (or any part of any Media Asset); or any Reviewer Comments for the following purposes:

4.3.1 In accordance with these Terms of Service;

4.3.2 To develop the Services or any other product developed by Wipster;

4.3.3 To conduct market research;

4.3.4 To produce reports and summarise data which may be shared with Wipster members or a third party;

4.4 provided at all times that any use of such information shall be in accordance with Wipster’s Privacy Policy. You represent and warrant that you own or have sufficient rights in all intellectual property in the Reviewer Comments, and that any use of the Reviewer Comments necessary to provide the Services (including doing any of the things listed above) will not infringe the intellectual property rights of a third party.

You further acknowledge and agree that Wipster shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the use of or reliance on any such content, goods or services available on or through any such site or resource.

The Wipster Service provides a platform for you to share and review your work-in-progress videos, images and PDFs, subject to the following terms of service and the Privacy Policy, which may be updated at any time (together the Terms of Service). Any amendments to the Terms of Service will be posted on our Website and will be effective immediately upon such posting. You are responsible for ensuring you are familiar with our latest Terms of Service and your continued use of our Service will be deemed acceptance of any updates. Commonly used words in these Terms of Service are defined at the end, in Section 18.

1. Description of Services

1.1 Wipster provides a platform for content makers to share and review their work-in-progress Media Assets, as set out in more detail in this Section (Services).

1.4 As a Member you will be entitled to use the Services as follows:

1.4.2 You will be able to invite a number of people to view the Media Asset (each called a Reviewer). Wipster will send each Reviewer an individual link to the Media Asset which you wish to invite them to review which will enable the Reviewer to view the Media Asset and comment on that Media Asset. The email sent to each Reviewer will identify you as the person who invited them to review the relevant Media Asset, brief details of the Media Asset and will enable you and Wipster to identify each Reviewer’s comments. You will not input bulk Reviewers or use the invite function to send unsolicited emails (otherwise known as “spam”) to individuals or otherwise use the invite function to harass others.

1.4.3 Each Reviewer may comment and/or provide feedback on the particular Media Asset sent to them at any particular point in that Media Asset. You will be advised when a comment has been made on your Media Asset and you will be able to view each comment and respond to it.

1.4.4 All Reviewers are able to see comments made on the Media Asset.

1.4.5 All Reviewer comments are collated into a “to do” list which will only be visible and available to the Member who posted the original Media Asset.

2. Members and Reviewers

2.3.1 an invitation being sent to someone not intended to be a Reviewer as a result of an incorrect email address and/or other methods of contact for the Reviewer;

2.3.2 any comments made by any Reviewer whatsoever, including without limitation any comments that are or may be defamatory; or

2.3.3 any Reviewer forwarding the link and/or Media Asset to any other person.

2.3.4 As a Member you expressly acknowledge the above limitations and agree that you will take all necessary steps to ensure that you are satisfied that the people that you invite to review your Media Assets are advised accordingly and will comply with your directions. The exclusion of liability in this Section does not limit anything in Sections 12 and 13 of these Terms of Service.

3. Use of Website, APP and Services

Wipster reserves the right to introduce specific size limits on Media Assets and as part of undertakinge digital rights restrictions to ensure that these limits are adhered to as part of accessing and using the Services.

3.3 You may not modify, translate, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble or create derivative works of the Services (or any part of them) or otherwise attempt to (a) defeat, avoid, bypass, remove, deactivate or otherwise circumvent any software protection mechanisms in the Services (or any part of them), including, without limitation, any such mechanism (including the Website and/or APP) used to restrict or control the functionality of the Services (or any part of them) or (b) derive the source code or the underlying ideas, algorithms, structure or organization form of the Services (or any part of them).

Beta services are: (a) for evaluation purposes only; (b) not to be considered as Services; (c) unsupported; and (d) not guaranteed of ultimate release as Services, or if released, may be subject to additional terms.

Email addresses (provided that Wipster is able to connect the email address to a natural person, otherwise such information will not be considered personal information).
