We are pleased to welcome you on our Platform (hereinafter "Platform") integrated in Artique's website (available at artique.app) and mobile applications provided by Prequel Inc. For the purpose of these Terms of Use (hereinafter "Terms") Prequel Inc. will be referred to as "Artique", "we" or "us". For your convenience as the user of the Services, you shall be referred to as "you", "your" or "User".

These Terms establish the terms and conditions under which you, as a user, may create an account, access, and use the Platform, services, content, products, applications, and websites operated by Artique (hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Services").

If you are less than 18 years of age (or age of majority in your jurisdiction), you may use the Services ONLY with the consent of your parent or legal custodian. Please make sure that your parent or legal custodian has reviewed and discussed these Terms with you.

These Terms and Artique's Subscription Policy (available at https://artique.app/privacy-policy), that constitute an integral part of these Terms, form a legally binding agreement between you and us; hence we encourage you to review these Terms before using the Services to avoid confusion related to enforcement of these Terms by Artique. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS, DO NOT USE (OR IMMEDIATELY CEASE TO USE) OUR SERVICES.

1.1. Your access and/or use of the Services shall serve as a confirmation that you agree to comply with these Terms, and that you have legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement with Artique.

1.2. Your access to and use of the Services is subject to Artique's Privacy Policy (available at https://artique.app/privacy-policy) and Artique Subscription Policy (available at https://artique.app/subscription-policy). By using the Services, you consent to the terms of the Artique's Privacy Policy.

1.3. In the event that the Services are accessed and/or used by or on behalf of a legal entity, you hereby warrant and represent that:

(i) you are an authorized legal representative of the respective legal entity;
(ii) you are legally authorized to enter into a binding agreement with Artique on behalf of such entity; and
(iii) you agree to comply with these Terms on behalf of such entity;
(iv) the legal entity that you represent operates a lawful business in accordance with applicable laws.

(ii) by email notification; or
(iii) through any of our applications.

1.5. It is your responsibility to review the Terms from time to time for any changes. Your access and use of the Services following any modification of these Terms will signify your assent to and acceptance of the same. If you object to any subsequent revision to the Terms, immediately discontinue use of our Services and, if applicable, terminate your account.

2.1. Unless We specifically authorize you to use the Services otherwise, We grant you an on-going, non-exclusive, commercial, worldwide license to make use of Our Services and any item from Our Services you have selected to create multiple end products that incorporate Our Services as well as other things, so that each end product is larger in scope and different in nature than Our Services and any item from Our Services, limited to advertising, promotion materials for small business accounts (for example, social media pages, stories, posts). If you aim to use the end product that incorporate Our Services for a different purpose which is not covered by this license (for example, for printing, offline publication), you may contact us for a purpose of receiving special conditions of the license.

The license includes the right to utilize the end product as specified above through communication to the public, display, distribution and reproduction.

You can create end products for yourself or for your clients. If you create an end product for a client, then this license is sub-licensed to your client only for use in that specific end product.

You can make any number of copies of each end product and distribute an end product through multiple digital social media, and you can make it available online to an unlimited number of viewers.

You can modify or manipulate the items from Our Services which you have selected, or combine the items with other works, to suit each end product. The resulting works based on Our Services are subject to the terms of this license. You cannot claim ownership to Our Services and any items from such, whether it’s in original form or altered under this clause. You can do the things allowed in this clause as long as each end product you then create is one that’s permitted under this clause.

We may offer certain portions of the Services at no charge, for a one-time fee, on a subscription basis, or under any other lawful pricing structure. In all of the above instances, our Services are not being sold to you; rather, you are being granted or purchasing a limited license to use the Services.

2.2. Unless specifically provided otherwise, use of any of our paid Services does not transfer across operating systems and/or different equipment (e.g., mobile devices, computers, etc.). For example, unless we specifically tell you otherwise, use of our mobile Application is limited to the specific device and/or operating system you are using at the time you purchase a license to use the Application.

2.3. When using our Services, you agree to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws including, without limitation, copyright laws. Except as expressly permitted under these Terms or as we may otherwise permit, you may not use, reproduce, duplicate, make unauthorized copies of, modify, alter, adapt, reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile, distribute or create derivative works based upon, publicly display, publicly perform, publish, transmit, or otherwise exploit Service Content (as defined below) or any content included therein, for any purpose whatsoever, without obtaining prior written consent from us or, in the case of third-party content, its applicable owner.

2.7. In addition to the above limitations, your access to and use of the Services must at all times be compliant with the Artique Privacy Policy.

2.8. Artique reserves the right, at its sole discretion, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to Artique Service Content and/or material(s) available on the Services for any reason or without reason.

3.1. As between Artique and you, all content (and any derivative works therefrom) available on of through the use of the Services including, but not limited to, artworks, software, images, text, files, materials, graphics, illustrations, logos, trademarks, service marks, photographs, audio and/or music files, videos, audiovisual works, URLs, technologies, documentation, interactive features and/or other content, materials, products and/or services, protected under intellectual property law (the "Service Content"), are either owned or licensed by Artique; except that you and/or your licensors shall enjoy ownership rights in relation to User Content (as defined in section 4 of these Terms) that you upload or transmit through the Services. Use of the Service Content on the Services for any purpose that is not expressly permitted under these Terms is strictly prohibited.

3.2. You may not download, copy, reproduce, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, or otherwise exploit Service Content for any purpose whatsoever, without our or, where applicable, our licensors' prior written consent.

3.3. Any rights in relation to audio and/or music files and/or recordings available on or through the use of the Service may not be licensed without prior written consent of respective rights holders.

You hereby acknowledge and agree that Artique has the right to generate revenue and/or to otherwise increase company's value as result of your use of the Services, including, but not limited to, through sale of advertising, sponsorships, promotions, usage data and, except where otherwise specifically provided in these Terms or in other agreement entered into between you and Artique , you have no right in relation to such revenue, goodwill or value whatsoever.

3.4. Subject to the terms and conditions set out in these Terms and unless otherwise provided by these Terms or specifically authorized by Artique, you are hereby granted a non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable, worldwide license to access and use the Services, to download the Platform on your device and to access Service Content, solely for your personal use and in compliance with these Terms. Artique reserves all rights in the Services and in Service Content that are not expressly granted herein. You acknowledge and agree that Artique may terminate this license at any time for any reason or without reason.

4.1. Users of the Services may upload, post, transmit or otherwise make available through the Services content, including, but not limited to, text, photographs, videos, Artique presets, audio and/or music files embodied therein, videos / audiovisual works (hereinafter referred to as "User Content"). Users of the Services may also overlay music, graphics, and other elements provided by Artique onto this User Content and transmit this User Content through the Services. The information and materials in the User Content, including User Content that includes the above mentioned elements, have not been verified or approved by us. The views expressed by other users on the Services do not represent our views or values.

4.2. Whenever you access or use a feature that allows you to upload or transmit or otherwise make User Content through the Services (including via certain third-party social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, etc.), or to make contact with other users of the Services, you must comply with the standards set out at "Access to and Use Limitations" above. You may also choose to upload or transmit your User Content, on sites or platforms hosted by third parties. If you decide to do this, you must comply with their content guidelines as well as with the standards set out at "Access to and Use Limitations" above. As noted above, these features may not be available to all users of the Services, and we have no liability to you for limiting your right to certain features of the Services.

4.3. You warrant that any such contribution does comply with those standards, and you will be liable to us and indemnify us for any breach of that warranty. This means you will be responsible for any loss or damage we suffer as a result of your breach of warranty.

4.4. Any User Content will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary. You must not post any User Content on or through the Services or transmit to us any User Content that you consider to be confidential or proprietary. When you submit User Content through the Services, you agree and represent that you own that User Content or you have received all necessary permissions, clearances from, or are authorized by, the owner of any part of the content to submit it to the Services, to transmit it from the Services to other third party platforms, and/or adopt any third-party content.

4.5. If you only own the rights in and to a sound recording, but not to the underlying musical works embodied in such sound recordings, then you must not post such sound recordings to the Services unless you have all permissions, clearances from, or are authorized by, the owner of any part of the content to submit it to the Services.

4.6. Nothing is changing about your rights in your content. You or the owner of your User Content still own the copyright in User Content sent to us. However, we need certain permission from you for us to provide the Services. Therefore, by submitting User Content via the Services, you hereby grant us an unconditional irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully transferable, perpetual worldwide license to use, modify, adapt, reproduce, make derivative works of, publish and/or transmit, and/or distribute and to authorize other users of the Services and other third-parties to view, access, use, download, modify, adapt, reproduce, make derivative works of, publish and/or transmit your User Content in any format and on any platform, either now known or hereinafter invented.

4.7. You further grant us a royalty-free license to use your username, image, voice, and likeness to identify you as the source of any of your User Content; provided, however, that your ability to provide an image, voice, and likeness may be subject to limitations due to age restrictions.

4.8. For the avoidance of doubt, the rights granted in the preceding paragraphs of this Section include, but are not limited to, the right to reproduce sound recordings (and make mechanical reproductions of the musical works embodied in such sound recordings), and publicly perform and communicate to the public sound recordings (and the musical works embodied therein), all on a royalty-free basis. This means that you are granting us the right to use your User Content without the obligation to pay royalties to any third party, including, but not limited to, a sound recording copyright owner (e.g., a record label), a musical work copyright owner (e.g., a music publisher), a performing rights organization (a "PRO"), a sound recording PRO, any unions or guilds, and engineers, producers or other royalty participants involved in the creation of User Content.

4.9. As a Platform user, you are responsible for the content you post. If you have questions about copyright law or trademark law, such as questions about whether your content or your use of another person's name or brand infringes or otherwise violates another person's rights, you may want to contact an attorney. If you are unsure whether the material you plan to report to us is infringing or otherwise violating another person's right, you may also want to first seek legal advice before reporting such content to us.

4.10. Artique reserves the right to remove User Content that infringes or violates intellectual property rights (including copyright and/or rights under trademark) of third parties.

5.1. If you are a composer or author of a musical work and are affiliated with a performance rights organization (hereinafter "PRO"), then you must notify your PRO of the royalty-free license you grant through these Terms in your User Content to us. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the relevant PRO's reporting obligations. If you have assigned your rights to a music publisher, then you must obtain the consent of such music publisher to grant the royalty-free license(s) outlined in these Terms in your User Content or have such music publisher enter into these Terms with us. Just because you authored a musical work (e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant us the licenses in these Terms. If you are a recording artist under contract with a record label, then you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Services complies with any contractual obligations you may have to your record label, including if you create any new recordings through the Services that may be claimed by your label.

6.1. All of the rights you grant in your User Content in these Terms are provided on a through-to-the-audience basis, meaning the owners or operators of third-party services will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content posted or used on such third-party services via the Services.

7.1. By posting User Content to or through the Services, you waive any rights to prior inspection or approval of any marketing or promotional materials related to such User Content. You also waive all rights of privacy, publicity, or any other rights of a similar nature in connection with your User Content, or any portion thereof. To the extent any moral rights are not transferable or assignable, you hereby waive and agree never to assert any moral rights, or to support, maintain or permit any action based on any moral rights that you may have in or for any User Content you post, upload, or distribute in any form to or through the Services.

7.2. We also have the right to disclose your identity to any third party who is claiming that any User Content posted or uploaded by you to our Services constitutes a violation of their intellectual property rights or their right to privacy.

7.3. We, or authorized third parties, reserve the right to cut, crop, edit or refuse to publish, your content at our or their sole discretion..

7.4. We accept no liability in respect of any content submitted by users and published by us or by authorized third parties.

7.5. Artique takes reasonable measures to expeditiously remove from our Services any infringing material that we become aware of. It is Artique's policy, in appropriate circumstances and at its discretion, to disable or terminate the accounts of users of the Services who repeatedly infringe copyrights or intellectual property rights of others.

8.1. Artique's Terms and Community Guidelines do not allow posting, sharing, or sending any content that violates or infringes someone else's copyrights, trademarks, or other intellectual property rights.

8.2. Our Service Content and all intellectual property rights to the same are owned by us, our licensors, or both. Additionally, all trademarks, service marks, trade name, and trade dress that may appear in our Services are owned by us, our licensors, or identified third parties. Except for the limited use rights granted to you in these Terms of Use, you shall not acquire any right, title, or interest in our Services or any Service Content. Any rights not expressly granted in these Terms of Use are expressly reserved.

8.3. We will respond promptly to claims of copyright or trademark infringements that are reported to our support team that we have designated to receive notifications of claims of infringement. If you are a copyright or a trademark owner (or authorized to act on behalf of such owner) and believe that your work's copyright or trademark have been infringed, please report infringement to us by providing our support team with a written notification of claimed infringement that includes the following essential information:
(i) A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
(ii) Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.
(iii) Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material.
(iv) Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which you may be contacted.
(v) A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
(vi) A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. We will investigate notices of copyright infringement and take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Inquiries that do not follow this procedure may not receive a response.

9.1. We do not allow any copyright or trademark infringement:

(i) Trademark infringement, which is generally the unauthorized use of a trademark or service mark in connection with goods or services in a way that is likely to cause confusion, deception, or mistake about the source, origin, sponsorship, or affiliation of the associated goods and/or services.

(ii) The use of copyrighted content of others without proper authorization or legally valid reason is a violation. Infringement of intellectual property by the Users may lead to a violation of Artique's policies.

9.2. At the same time, we keep in mind that not all unauthorized uses of copyrighted content constitute an infringement. In many countries, exceptions to copyright infringement allow the use of copyrighted works under certain circumstances without authorization. These include the fair use doctrine in the United States and permitted acts of fair dealing in the European Union (and other equivalent exceptions under applicable local laws in other countries).

9.3. Additionally, the use of another's trademark for purposes of accurately referencing, lawfully commenting, criticizing, parodying, or reviewing the trademark owner's products or services, or for purposes of comparing them to other products or services, where the mark is not used to designate the user's own goods or services or those of a third party, is generally not considered a violation of our policies. Likewise, it is generally permissible to make a fan page about a brand, even without the brand's permission, provided that you do not claim to speak for or be associated with the brand or otherwise violate the brand's intellectual property rights.

10.1. Artique reserves the right to refuse to provide service, limit access to the Services, suspend or terminate your account on the Services in the event that you violate intellectual property rights of third parties, provisions of these Terms and/or Artique Community's Guidelines. Artique further reserves the right to refuse any user whose account was suspended or terminated in accordance with this clause 10.3., from opening a new account on the Services.

10.2. You may delete your account on the Services, which will result in immediate deletion of any information (including personal information and/or data) provided under such account, including, but not limited to, name, gender, profile picture, logs, and information on and from social networks, linked to such account. Please note that you cannot restore your account on the Services once it has been deleted.

10.3. If you choose to create an account using your third-party social account login details (f.e. Facebook, Google), you authorise us to access, display and use certain information from your third-party social account (e.g. profile pictures, relationship status, location and information about friends). For more information about what information we use and how we use it, please check out our Privacy Policy. You are solely responsible for security of any of your third-party social accounts. You shall not provide your third-party social account details as well Artique account details to any third party and any violation of this clause may lead to the suspension or termination of your account in Artique and Artique Services to you.

11.1. No fee paid hereunder shall be refundable, notwithstanding suspension or termination of your account on the Services, your failure to utilize any part of the Services (including features and/or functionality available under paid subscription and/or on a paid basis), the prepayment or cancellation of the Services or for any reason whatsoever, except where otherwise specified by Artique.

12.1. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Artique and its officers, directors, employees, parents, partners, successors, agents, distribution partners, affiliates, subsidiaries, and their related companies from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, obligations, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and costs) arising out of, related to, or that may arise in connection with:

Please read it carefully. You may opt-out of the arbitration agreement by following the opt-out procedure described below.

Informal Process First. You agree that in the event of any dispute between you and Artique, you will first contact Artique and make a good faith sustained effort to resolve the dispute before resorting to more formal means of resolution, including without limitation any court action.

Arbitration Agreement. After the informal dispute resolution process any remaining dispute, controversy, or claim (collectively, "Claim") relating in any way to your use of Artique 's services and/or products, including the Services, or relating in any way to the communications between you and Artique or any other user of the Services, will be finally resolved by binding arbitration. This mandatory arbitration agreement applies equally to you and Artique. However, this arbitration agreement does not (a) govern any Claim by Artique for infringement of its intellectual property or access to the Services that is unauthorized or exceeds authorization granted in these Terms or (b) bar you from making use of applicable small claims court procedures in appropriate cases. If you are an individual, you may opt-out of this arbitration agreement within thirty (30) days of the first of the date you access or use these Services by following the procedure described below.

You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision and that you and Artique are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision will survive any termination of these Terms.

If you wish to begin an arbitration proceeding, after following the informal dispute resolution procedure, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to:

Prequel Inc., 6799 Collins Ave., Office 1602, Miami Beach, FL, 33141

Email Address: [email protected]

We each agree that any claim or dispute between us, and any claim by either of us against any agent, employee, successor, or assign of the other, including, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, third parties who are not signatories to this agreement, whether related to this agreement or otherwise, including past, present, and future claims and disputes, and including any dispute as to the validity or applicability of this arbitration clause, shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the New York International Arbitration Center (or "NYIAC") under its rules and procedures in effect when the claim is filed. The rules and procedures and other information, including information on fees, may be obtained from the NYIAC website (https://nyiac.org/) or by calling NYIAC at +1 917 300 9550.

The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, unconscionability, arbitrability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable. However, the preceding sentence will not apply to the "Class Action Waiver" section below.

If you do not want to arbitrate disputes with Artique and you are an individual, you may opt-out of this arbitration agreement by sending an email to [email protected] within thirty (30) days of the first of the date you access or use the Services.

15.3. Class action waiver

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PURSUE DISPUTES ON A CLASSWIDE BASIS; THAT IS, TO EITHER JOIN A CLAIM WITH THE CLAIM OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY OR ASSERT A CLAIM IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF ANYONE ELSE IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING.

Any Claim must be brought in the respective party's individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, representative, multiple plaintiffs, or similar proceeding ("Class Action"). The parties expressly waive any ability to maintain any Class Action in any forum. If the Claim is subject to arbitration, the arbitrator will not have authority to combine or aggregate similar claims or conduct any Class Action nor make an award to any person or entity not a party to the arbitration. Any claim that all or part of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The parties understand that any right to litigate in court, to have a judge or jury decide their case, or to be a party to a class or representative action, is waived and that any claims must be decided individually, through arbitration.

If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the Arbitration Agreement, if otherwise effective, will be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and Artique each waive any right to a jury trial.

To the extent allowed by law, we each waive any right to trial by jury in any lawsuit, arbitration, or any other proceeding.

If a counter-notice is received by Artique’s Copyright Agent, we may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that we may replace the removed content or cease disabling it. Unless the original complaining party files an action seeking a court order against the Content Provider, member, or user, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in ten business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at Artique's sole discretion.

Please understand that filing a counter-notification may lead to legal proceedings between you and the complaining party to determine ownership. Be aware that there may be adverse legal consequences in your country if you make a false or bad faith allegation by using this process.

15.4. Miscellaneous

No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. Section headings used in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal import.

Except where specifically stated otherwise, if any part of these Terms of Use is unlawful or unenforceable for any reason, we both agree that only that part of the Terms of Use shall be stricken and that the remaining terms in the Terms of Use shall not be affected.

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous written or oral agreements between us with respect to such subject matter.

You may not assign these Terms of Use or assign any rights or delegate any obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without our prior written consent. Any such purported assignment or delegation by you without the appropriate prior written consent will be null and void and of no force and effect. We may assign these Terms of Use or any rights hereunder without your consent and without any notice.
