‍

‍4. Content

‍You may provide input data in the form of text, images, or other types of binary data and files (“Inputs”) to interact with our Services. Our Services may generate responses back, which may include text, images, or other types of binary data and files or take actions on your behalf (“Outputs”). Collectively, Inputs and Outputs are “Content”. Our services generate Outputs using artificial intelligence, which is a rapidly developing field of study. We are continuously working to improve the accuracy, reliability, and overall experience of the Services. You agree that the use of our Services may sometimes result in Outputs that may not be accurate, as you intended, or expected. Output results do not represent Edison Scientific’s views on any topics.

By submitting Inputs to the Services, you represent and warrant that you have all the rights, licenses, and permissions necessary for us to process the Inputs under these Terms and, in doing so, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, process, and transmit such Inputs solely as necessary to provide and maintain the Services for you and to comply with applicable law. You are responsible for all the Inputs you submit to us, and you also represent and warrant that your Inputs will not violate these Terms. You retain any right, title, or interest that you have in the Inputs that you submit to the Services. As between you and Edison Scientific, subject to your compliance with these Terms, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, we assign to you all rights, title, and any interest in the Outputs of the Services.

You acknowledge that Outputs are generated by artificial intelligence and may be similar to or the same as other Outputs for other users, depending on the Inputs. You agree that you are responsible for evaluating, and bearing all risks associated with, the use of any Outputs, including in any subsequent actions or endeavors you undertake, guidance you give, or claims you make on the basis of any Outputs.
‍

‍5. Feedback

‍We appreciate any feedback you may provide. You agree that we have the right to use your feedback, no matter the medium it was provided by, in any way without restriction or compensation to you.
‍

‍6. Payments

‍You may be required to pay fees to access or use our Services. You are responsible for providing complete and accurate payment information and paying any applicable fees and any taxes as required by law for our Services, unless we have communicated otherwise to you in official communications from an authorized representative. Our fees are specified on our pricing page.

If fees are specified on a recurring basis for continued usage of the Services (“Subscription”), you agree that we may charge your payment method on file, such as a credit card or otherwise acceptable method for our payment processor, (“Payment Method”) any applicable fees and any taxes as required by law on a recurring basis. We may make available to you differing Subscription plans (“Plans”) that offer different base level amounts of monthly credits (“Monthly Plan Credits”). If you sign your Account up for a Subscription, your account will have a minimum initial term duration (“Initial Term”) in which your Account will receive a set amount of Monthly Plan Credits. The duration of the initial term and the amount of Monthly Plan Credits will be specified for your Account in the pricing page and as part of the purchase order process. Your Payment Method will then be charged at every additional, equal duration term after the Initial Term (“Renewal Term”) for Subscription fees. Monthly Plan Credits reset to the Plan set level at the beginning of every Renewal Term. Unused Monthly Plan Credits will therefore expire at the end of the term before the Renewal Term. We reserve the right to make available future promotions to you where we may offer discounted bundles of Initial Term and multiple Renewal Term Plans with the appropriate amount of Monthly Plan Credits for the bundle, and should you choose to purchase a promotional offering, the payment schedules may differ as part of the promotional offering.

We may make available to you additional usage-based credit purchases in addition to your Monthly Plan Credits (“Add-On Credits”), which also are specified on our pricing page. If you make Add-On Credit purchases, you agree that your Payment Method will be charged immediately for the applicable fees and any taxes as required by law. Add-On Credits do not ever reset or expire for your Account. Add-On Credits will be utilized when you exhaust your Monthly Plan Credits in the course of using the Services.

Unless bound by certain contractual terms, such as in the case of a promotional bundle, should you choose to downgrade your Subscription to the free Plan (“Downgrade to Free”, “Cancel”, or “Cancellation”), we will immediately stop any payment schedules on your Payment Method, and your Monthly Plan Credits will reset to the free Plan set level of Monthly Plan Credits at the end of the term before the Renewal Term. Any Add-On Credits are still valid and available to use.

Unless expressly provided in these Terms or where required by law, all payments are non-refundable. We reserve the right to increase fees for our Services as necessary. If we increase fees for our Services, we will give you a reasonable opportunity to review the increased fees before you are charged. You agree that we will not be held liable for any errors caused by third-party payment processors used to process fees that you pay us. At our discretion in warranted instances, we may credit your Account a certain amount of Add-On Credits.
‍

‍7. Termination and Suspension

‍You are free to stop accessing or using our Services at any time. Unless bound by certain contractual terms, we reserve the right to Cancel your Account Subscription, and furthermore suspend or terminate your access at our discretion if:

You breached these Terms.

Your Payment Method becomes invalid or if you have overdue invoices.

We have a legal obligation to do so.
‍

‍8. Discontinuation of Services

‍In the event of material business transfer where we no longer intend to provide the Services, we will give you advance notice and will refund you any prepaid payments tied to promotional or contractual agreements for future services not rendered.
‍

‍9. Our IP Rights

‍The Services are owned, operated, and provided by us and our affiliates, licensors, distributors, and service providers (collectively “Providers”). We and our Providers retain all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services and its intellectual property rights. Other than the rights expressly granted in these Terms, we do not grant you any right, title, or interest in or to our Services.
‍

‍10. Disclaimer of Warranties

‍OUR SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE AND OUR PROVIDERS MAKE NO WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESSED, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE OF ANY KIND, RELATING TO THE SERVICES. WE AND OUR PROVIDERS EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, PRIVACY, SECURITY, COMPATIBILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, OR TRADE USAGE. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS SOLELY AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT RELY ON ANY OUTPUTS AS A SOLE SOURCE OF TRUTH, FACTUAL INFORMATION, OR A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL ADVICE, ESPECIALLY FOR REGULATED INDUSTRIES AND PRACTICES SUCH AS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FINANCIAL, LEGAL, OR MEDICAL ADVICE.
‍

‍11. Limitation of Liabilities

‍IN NO EVENT WILL WE, OUR PROVIDERS, OR OUR AFFILIATES, INVESTORS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, HEIRS OR ASSIGNS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “EDISON SCIENTIFIC PARTIES”), TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES, THE CONTENT, OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER THEORY, EVEN IF THE DAMAGES ARE FORESEEABLE, AND EVEN IF EDISON SCIENTIFIC PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF ANY POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, THE EDISON SCIENTIFIC PARTIES’ TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF THE SERVICES, THE CONTENT, OR THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHER THEORY, WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID TO US FOR THE SERVICES DURING THE THREE MONTHS PRECEDING THE DATE OF SUCH DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION FIRST AROSE.
‍

‍12. Indemnity

‍YOU AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE EDISON SCIENTIFIC PARTIES FROM AND AGAINST ALL LIABILITIES, CLAIMS, DAMAGES, EXPENSES (INCLUDING ALL ATTORNEYS’ FEES AND COSTS), AND OTHER LOSSES ARISING OUT OF: YOUR ACCESS AND USE OF, OR ALLEGED ACCESS AND USE OF, THE SERVICES; THESE TERMS; YOUR BREACH OR ALLEGED BREACH OF THESE TERMS; YOUR FEEDBACK; THE CONTENT; ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES THAT YOU DERIVE, CREATE, OFFER, OR OTHERWISE MAKE AVAILABLE USING OR OTHERWISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES; YOUR VIOLATION OF ANY APPLICABLE LAW OR ANY THIRD PARTY RIGHTS; AND ANY ACTUAL OR ALLEGED FRAUD, INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, GROSS NEGLIGENCE, OR CRIMINAL ACTS COMMITTED BY YOU OR ANY OF YOUR AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS. YOU AGREE TO OUR RIGHT TO ENGAGE SEPARATE COUNSEL AND PARTICIPATE IN OR ASSUME THE EXCLUSIVE DEFENSE AND CONTROL OF ANY MATTER OTHERWISE SUBJECT TO INDEMNIFICATION BY YOU HEREUNDER, IN WHICH CASE YOU AGREE TO COOPERATE WITH US AND SUCH SEPARATE COUNSEL.

OUR PROVIDERS ARE INTENDED THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES OF THE AFOREMENTIONED DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN SECTIONS 10 AND 11 OF THESE TERMS.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN DISCLAIMERS OF WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OF DAMAGES, SO SOME OR ALL OF THE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THESE TERMS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU DEPENDING ON YOUR COUNTRY OF RESIDENCE. IN SUCH A CASE, THESE TERMS ONLY LIMIT OUR RESPONSIBILITIES TO THE FULLEST PERMISSIBLE EXTENT IN YOUR JURISDICTION.
‍

‍13. Dispute Resolution

‍‍Informal dispute resolution. We would like to engage with you prior to any legal action in a best effort to resolve any concerns before they are filed as claims (a “Dispute”). You agree with us that this is the best course of action to begin with. You agree to send us notice via email at legal@edisonscientific.com with a clear, detailed, and coherent subject line and message body that informs us of your concerns and your intention to file a Dispute over your concerns. We will respond to your concerns, and if within 60 days we cannot resolve the Dispute, either party has the right to initiate arbitration. We both agree to attend an individual settlement conference, whether live in the city of San Francisco, California, or virtual via video conferencing, if either one requests during this time. Any statute of limitations will be tolled during the informal dispute resolution process.

‍Arbitration. Except as set forth below regarding equitable relief, any formal Dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (if you are an individual) or Commercial Arbitration Rules (if you are an Enterprise), then in effect. You agree that arbitration may take place via video conferencing if either party elects and is possible, but if the arbitrator determines an in-person hearing is necessary, in-person arbitration proceedings will take place in San Francisco, California. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the State of California. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or any part of the Dispute and will have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, except that the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, California, will have the authority to determine (i) the enforceability of this arbitration provision, (ii) the validity or enforceability of the class action waiver, or (iii) requests for public injunctive relief, as set forth below.

‍Class and jury trial waivers. You agree to waive your right to a jury trial and to participate in any class, collective, or representative action. All Disputes must be brought on an individual basis. In the event of arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate claims of more than one person or otherwise preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.

Equitable relief. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that no adequate remedy exists at law if you breach these Terms, with particular note to Section 3’s Acceptable Use Policy, and that it would be difficult to determine the resulting irreparable damage of such a breach, and in such case, you agree that a grant of injunctive relief provides the best remedy such a breach and to prevent or stop unauthorized use, misuse, or disclosure of confidential information, intellectual property, or proprietary materials, or to enforce Section 3. You waive any opposition to such injunctive relief which may be requested through the courts without postage of bond, security, or proof of damages.

‍Governing law and exclusive jurisdiction. These Terms will be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California. You agree that any Disputes arising out of these Terms or the usage of the Services will be resolved exclusively in the judicial courts of California, and you submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of those courts. By accessing our Services and thereby accepting these Terms, you waive any claims that may arise under laws of any other jurisdiction.
‍

‍14. General Terms‍

‍Changes to these Terms. We may revise these Terms from time to time at our discretion. You agree to any updated terms if you continue to access the Services after we post the updated Terms on our website or otherwise give you notice of Terms changes. If you do not agree to updated Terms, you must stop using the Services.

‍Updates to our Services. We may update our Services from time to time at our discretion. These updates are to improve the capacities and capabilities of the Services, and it may include the addition or removal of features within the Services.

‍Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permissible by applicable law, it will have no effect on any other Terms, and the remainder of the Terms shall remain in full force and effect.

‍No waiver. Our failure or delay in enforcing any provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of our right to enforce that provision (or any other provision) at a later time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by us to be effective.

‍No assignment. These Terms may be assigned by us without restriction, and they may not be assigned by you to any other party without our prior written consent.
