Dadavan reserves the right to delete, move, or edit Content that it, in its sole discretion, deems to be abusive, defamatory, obscene, in violation of copyright or trademark laws, or in violation of any person’s rights of privacy or publicity, or otherwise unacceptable, provided that Dadavan shall not be deemed the publisher of any Content by virtue of its right to control said Content.
    6. You have no obligation to provide us with ideas, suggestions or proposals (“Feedback”). However, if you submit Feedback to Dadavan, you hereby assign to Dadavan all rights in the Feedback and agree that Dadavan shall have the right to use such Feedback and related information in any manner it deems appropriate without compensation to you. You agree that you will not submit to Dadavan any information or ideas that you consider to be confidential or proprietary. Dadavan will treat any Feedback you provide to Dadavan as non-confidential and non-proprietary.
  7. Your Content; License to Dadavan
    1. As a Custom Codex account holder, you may submit Content to the Service. You understand that Dadavan does not guarantee any confidentiality or privacy rights with respect to any Content you submit.
    2. You shall be solely responsible for your own Content and the consequences of submitting your Content on the Service. You should only provide Content that you are comfortable publically sharing with others under these Terms of Service. You affirm, represent, and warrant that: (i) you own the Content posted by you on or through the Service or otherwise have the right to grant the rights and licenses set forth in these Terms of Service; (ii) the posting and use of your Content on or through the Service does not violate, misappropriate or infringe on the rights of any third party, including, without limitation, privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, trademark and/or other intellectual property rights; (iii) you agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and any other monies owed by reason of Content you post on or through the Service; and (iv) you have the legal right and capacity to enter into these Terms of Service in your jurisdiction. You retain all of your ownership rights in your Content. By submitting Content to Dadavan, you hereby grant Dadavan a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable license to use, copy, reproduce, process, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, monetize, publish, transmit, display, perform and distribute the Content in connection with the Service and Dadavan’s (and its successors’ and affiliates’) business, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Service (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels, including without limitation social media. You also hereby grant each user of the Service a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicenseable and transferable license to access your Content through the Service, and to distribute and display such Content as permitted through the functionality of the Service and under the Terms of Service.

    4. You are free to remove your Content at any time. You understand and agree, however, that Dadavan may retain, but not display, distribute or perform, server copies of your Content that have been removed or deleted by you. Further, you understand and agree that any Content you have submitted which has been previously downloaded by any other user or person will remain within the control of such user or person.
    5. You further agree that Content you submit to the Service will not contain third party copyrighted material, or material that is subject to other third party proprietary rights, unless you have permission from the rightful owner of the material or you are otherwise legally entitled to post the material and to grant Dadavan all of the license rights granted herein.
    6. Dadavan expressly disclaims any and all liability in connection with Content. Dadavan does not permit copyright infringing activities and infringement of intellectual property rights on the Service and will remove Content if properly notified that such Content infringes on another’s intellectual property rights. Dadavan reserves the right to remove Content without prior notice.
    7. You understand that the Service may be interrupted, including, without limitation, for scheduled or emergency maintenance, including upgrades or failure of telecommunications links and/or equipment. Given the nature of data/storage and the possibilities of content loss across the Service, Dadavan encourages all users to keep local copies of all Content they publish in Custom Codex. Dadavan is not liable to you or any other party for any modification, suspension or discontinuation of the Service or Content loss through use of the Service.
  8. Account Termination
    1. Dadavan will terminate a user’s access to the Service if Dadavan determines the user has violated these Terms of Service.
    2. Dadavan reserves the right to decide whether Content violates these Terms of Service for reasons other than copyright infringement, such as, but not limited to, violation of the Community Guidelines set forth above. Dadavan may at any time, without prior notice and in its sole discretion, remove such Content and/or terminate a user’s account for submitting such material in violation of the Terms of Service. Content removed from the Service may continue to be stored on Dadavan servers, including for purposes of compliance with legal obligations.
  9. Fees, Payments and Subscription Periods
    1. Fees. The fees applicable for the Service (“Fees”) are available on the Site and/or in Dadavan’s then-current published price list. The price stated for the Service excludes all taxes and charges, unless stated otherwise. You are responsible for any taxes and for all other charges incidental to using the Service (for example, data charges and currency exchange settlements). You will pay the Fees in the currency box quoted for your account. Dadavan reserves the right to change the quoted currency at any time. We’ll notify you in advance, either through the Service or to the email address you have most recently provided to us, if we change the price of the Service. If there’s a specific length and price for your Service offer already in effect, that price will remain in force for that time. After the offer period ends, your use of the Service will be charged at the then-current price. If your Service is on a period basis (for example, monthly) with no specific length, we’ll notify you of any price change at least 30 days in advance. If you don’t agree to these changes, you must cancel and stop using the Service by using the account cancellation functionality provided as part of the Service no later than three (3) business days prior to the conclusion of your current payment term, whether monthly, yearly, or otherwise. If you cancel, your Service ends at the end of your current Service period or payment period. If you fail to cancel in accordance with these Terms of Service, we will automatically renew the Service at the then-current price and for the same subscription period and will charge your credit card on file with us commencing on the first day of the renewal of the subscription period.
    2. Payment. You must be authorized to use the credit card that you enter when you create a billing account. You authorize us to charge you for the Service using your credit card and for any paid feature of the Service that you choose to sign up for or use while these Terms of Service are in force. Also, we may charge you up to the amount you've approved, and we'll notify you in advance of the difference for recurring subscription Services. We may bill you simultaneously for more than one of your prior billing periods. All paid accounts are due the date the invoice is posted on your account. Except as specifically set forth in this section, all Services are prepaid for the period selected (monthly, yearly or otherwise) and are non-refundable. This includes accounts that are renewed. You must keep all information in your billing account current. You can access and modify your billing account information by logging in to your account on the Site. You may change your payment method at any time. If you tell us to stop using your payment method and we no longer receive payment from you for the paid Service, we may cancel that Service. Your notice to us will not affect charges we submit to your billing account before we reasonably could act on your request. Except as prohibited by law, we may assess a late charge if you do not pay on time. You must pay these late charges when we bill you for them. The late charge will be the lesser of 1 percent of the unpaid amount each month or the maximum rate permitted by law. We may use a third party to collect past due amounts. You must pay for all reasonable costs we incur to collect any past due amounts, including reasonable attorneys' fees and other legal fees and costs. We may suspend or cancel your Service if you fail to pay in full on time.
    3. Subscription Period. You may elect one of the following subscription plans and billing options:
      1. A monthly subscription plan (“Monthly Subscription Plan”). The subscription period for the Monthly Subscription Plan will be one month and will automatically renew unless you cancel your Monthly Subscription Plan in accordance with these Terms at least three (3) business days prior to the renewal date. You will be billed monthly for the Monthly Subscription Plan on or about the same day each month until such time that you cancel your Monthly Subscription Plan. If you select the Monthly Subscription Plan, you can switch to the Annual Subscription Plan at any time; or
      2. An annual subscription plan (“Annual Subscription Plan”). The subscription period for the Annual Subscription Plan will be one year and will automatically renew each year on the anniversary of your Annual Subscription Plan unless you cancel your Annual Subscription Plan in accordance with these Terms at least ten (10) days prior to your renewal date. You will be billed annually for the Annual Subscription Plan on or about the same day each year until such time that you cancel your Annual Subscription Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, please note, you will not be permitted to cancel or downgrade to a lower level Service from the Service you have selected until the anniversary of your Annual Subscription Plan (for example, a ”Community” level account cannot downgrade to a “Personal” level account.) There will be no refunds for Annual Subscription Plan payments. Please be certain you are committing to a one (1) year period if you select the Annual Subscription Plan. If you are not certain, we recommend choosing the Monthly Subscription Plan. If you select the Annual Subscription Plan, you may not change to the Monthly Subscription Plan until the end of the one-year term of your Annual Subscription Plan.
  10. Reporting Copyright Violations
    If you believe that any Content has been copied from any content in which you claim a copyright interest in a way that constitutes an infringement of your copyright interest, or you can identify yourself as the subject of any Content and wish the Content in which you are the subject to be removed from the Site, please forward the following information to the Complaint Agent named below:

If you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner, you must provide an electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner on a statement wherein he/she/it authorizes you to act on his/her/its behalf.
  11. Indemnification
    To the extent permitted by applicable law, you (and also any third party for whom you operate an account on the Service) agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Dadavan, its officers, directors, employees and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, obligations, losses, and expenses, including without limitation lawyer’s fees and costs, arising from (including as a result of your activities on the Service or those conducted on your behalf): (i) your access to or use of the Service; (ii) your violation of these Terms of Service; (iii) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation, any intellectual property right, publicity, confidentiality, property or privacy right; (iv) your violation of any laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances or orders of any governmental and quasi-governmental authorities, including, without limitation, all regulatory, administrative and legislative authorities; (v) any misrepresentation made by you; or (vi) any claim that your Content caused damage to a third party. You agree to cooperate as required by Dadavan in the defense of any claim. Dadavan reserves the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you will not in any event settle any claim without the prior written consent of Dadavan. This defense and indemnification obligation will survive the Terms of Service and your use of the Service.

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” “WITH ALL FAULTS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED.

DADAVAN DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE AVAILABILITY OF OR THE FUNCTIONS CONTAINED IN THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE SERVICES ARE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT THE SERVICES DO NOT VIOLATE ANY RIGHT OF ANY PERSON. DADAVAN DOES NOT WARRANT OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE USE OR THE RESULTS OF THE USE OF THE SERVICES IN TERMS OF ITS CORRECTNESS, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE. YOU (AND NOT DADAVAN) ASSUME THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES, AS WELL AS THE ENTIRE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR, OR CORRECTION IF THERE ARE ANY DEFECTS. NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY DADAVAN AND ITS AFFILIATED ENTITIES SHALL CREATE A WARRANTY. APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE FOREGOING EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. DADAVAN ASSUMES NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY (I) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OMISSIONS OR INACCURACIES IN ANY CONTENT, (II) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE, (III) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF DADAVAN’S SERVERS AND/OR ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION AND/OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN, (IV) ANY LOSS OF DATA OR CONTENT, (V) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SERVICE, (VI) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE WHICH MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICE BY ANY THIRD PARTY, AND/OR (VII) ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICE.

  13. Limitation of Liability
    IN NO EVENT SHALL DADAVAN, ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA OR CONTENT, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM ANY (I) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OMISSIONS OR INACCURACIES OF THE SERVICE OR CONTENT, (II) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE, (III) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF DADAVAN’S SERVERS AND/OR ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION AND/OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN, (IV) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SERVICE, (IV) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE WHICH MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICE BY ANY THIRD PARTY, AND/OR (V) OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE ACCESS OR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE) THE SERVICE OR ANY CONTENT.

YOU SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT DADAVAN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR CONTENT OR THE DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY AND THAT THE RISK OF HARM OR DAMAGE FROM THE FOREGOING RESTS ENTIRELY WITH YOU.
  14. Arbitration
    For any dispute you have with Dadavan, you agree to first contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. If Dadavan has not been able to resolve the dispute with you informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms by binding arbitration pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Act (Nova Scotia). The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable lawyer’s fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts for matters related to data security, intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND DADAVAN ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
  15. Ability to Accept Terms of Service
    You affirm that you are either 18 years of age or older, an emancipated minor, or possess legal parental or guardian consent, and are fully able and competent to enter into and comply with the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties set forth in these Terms of Service.
  16. Assignment
    The Terms of Service, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Dadavan without restriction.
  17. International Use
    The Services are controlled, operated, and administered by Dadavan from its offices in Canada. Dadavan makes no representation that the Services are appropriate or available for use outside of Canada. Dadavan reserves the right to block access to the Services by certain international users. Recognizing the global nature of the Internet, you agree that you are responsible for complying with and will comply with all local rules and laws regarding your access and use of the Services, including as those concern online conduct and acceptable content.
  18. Communications
    You will receive administrative communications from Dadavan, such as transaction confirmations, notifications about your account activities (e.g. account confirmations, password changes, etc.), and any other important announcements.
  19. General
    You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Canada; and (ii) the Service does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Dadavan, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Canada. These Terms of Service shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Nova Scotia and the laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. If any provision of these Terms of Service is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms of Service, which shall remain in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of these Terms of Service shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other provision, and any failure by Dadavan to assert any right or provision under these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Dadavan reserves the right to amend these Terms of Service at any time without notice. It is your responsibility to review these Terms of Service for any changes. Your use of the Service following any amendment of these Terms of Service will signify your assent to and acceptance of its revised terms. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that your use complies with applicable law in your jurisdiction of residence. YOU AND DADAVAN AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
