Wrongful use of a Password shall entitle Binumi to suspend Subscription privileges and all rights to access the Services with immediate effect.
(3) Sharing of Passwords by Users with any Subscription with the intent of allowing use of the Services by additional Users is strictly prohibited and will lead to immediate termination of the right to use the Services not just by the User but also by the Subscriber to whom an offending User is affiliated.

6. Use of Services by Subscribers and all authorized Users
(1) The Services are for the personal use of Subscribers and authorised Users. They are intended primarily to allow Users to use the Services to create, edit and Distribute multimedia videos utilising Binumi’s Multimedia Library and other Content. The Services also allow Subscribers and other Users to combine Binumi’s Content with their own proprietary footage, to add music and voiceovers and make other adjustments and then to share and Distribute the resulting Completed Work.
(2) The Services include the right for Users to use User Storyboards. Whilst the original User Storyboard will remain untouched other Users may make unlimited numbers of Completed Works from a User Storyboards once a User shares a User Storyboard. In making a decision to share a User Storyboard, the User who created the User Storyboard hereby grants, on an irrevocable basis, all and any rights that may be required to other Users and other third parties to use and make such modifications to the User Storyboard as they may wish.
(3) All use of the Services by Users must be proportionate and reasonable. For illustrative purposes only Binumi would consider the creation of in excess of 100 Completed Works in a month by a single User to be excessive and disproportionate.
(4) Unless a Subscriber has subscribed to use the Services as a Business Subscriber when limited commercial use is permitted as further described in the special terms applicable to use by Business Subscribers, the Services may not be used for commercial purposes save where this is expressly otherwise authorised by Binumi in writing. Binumi reserves the right to remove commercial content in its sole discretion.
(5) Illegal and/or unauthorised use of the Services, including, without limitation, collecting usernames, user ID numbers, and/or email addresses of Subscribers or other Users by electronic or other means for the purpose of sending unsolicited emails or unauthorized framing of or linking to the Services, or employing third party promotional sites or software to promote profiles for money, is prohibited. Commercial advertisements, affiliate links, and other forms of unauthorized data collection or solicitation may be removed from Subscriber or User profiles without notice or explanation and may result in termination of Subscription privileges. Binumi reserves the right to take appropriate legal action, including, without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorised use of the Services.
(6) Subject to the provisions of Section 6(7) below, Users are permitted to combine Multimedia Library footage and other Content comprised within the Services with music files in the creation of video footage. It is, however, an express condition of any use of music files that once downloaded the music files are not to be used for any other purpose other than for use in conjunction with the Multimedia Library footage with which they are first used by the User who downloads them. In particular, but without limitation, Users shall not deconstruct or use such music files with any other material and any such use shall be viewed and treated as a breach of the terms of a Subscription or use entitling Binumi to terminate a User’s right to use the Services forthwith. Any such termination shall be without prejudice to any rights Binumi or any third-party owner of such music rights may have against that User in connection with any such breach.
(7) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 6(6) above certain footage, image or music files contained within the Multimedia Library are designated as being attributable to featured artists and the use of such files is subject to commercial restrictions.
(8) Users may from time to time be invited to participate in competitions and awareness campaigns to make videos combining footage provided by a third party with other Content from the Binumi Site. It is an express condition of participation in such competitions and campaigns that any resulting video is subject to these Terms, that no intellectual property rights in the resulting video or any clips or files comprised within it derived from the Multimedia Library shall pass to the User and that the video may not be commercialised in any way without the prior written consent of Binumi.
(9) Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms it is an express term of the use of the Services that no User may sell, transfer or use any part of the Multimedia Library as stand-alone clips/ files, or include any part of the Multimedia Library in any other media product, library, or collection for distribution or resale.
(10) Multimedia Library footage may contain a Binumi or a third-party watermark. Save in the case of Business Subscriptions, the Binumi watermark may not be removed under any circumstances save as expressly otherwise permitted. Any unauthorised removal of the Binumi watermark by a User will be treated as a material violation of these Terms and will result in immediate termination of a Subscriber's Subscription and of his, her or its right to use the Services.
(11) For the avoidance of all doubt, every User shall, subject to having complied with these Terms, and notwithstanding the termination of any applicable Subscription continue to be permitted to use any Completed Work containing Content derived from the Binumi Site created during the period of any relevant Subscription both during any period of Subscription and after its termination PROVIDED ALWAYS that such User shall not be permitted either before or after any such termination to decompile or deconstruct a Completed Work and/or use individual pieces of Content derived from the Binumi Site included in the Completed Work in any way or to use such Completed Work for commercial purposes unless otherwise expressly agreed. In the foregoing respect, but subject to on-going compliance with these Terms, Binumi hereby grants to each User a perpetual worldwide Licence to use and exploit Completed Works on the terms set out herein.
(12) Without prejudice to any other provision in these Terms, Binumi shall, in addition, and without limitation, be entitled to terminate any Subscription forthwith if it discovers that any User using the Services has misrepresented himself as being the representative of any organisation with which he is not connected or has Distributed any video or other content using the Services under a stolen identity.
(13) Binumi has gone to considerable lengths to ensure that it has all necessary rights to make the Multimedia Library and all other Content available to Users as part of the Services. To the extent, however, that any third party claims the use of any part of the Multimedia Library or other Content infringes its rights Binumi reserves the right to require that a Subscriber and its Users cease to use such footage, image or audio clip until the matter is resolved. Binumi expressly disclaims all and any liability it may have to Subscribers and to any User in relation to any aspect of its or his use or restriction of use of such footage, image or audio clip. For the avoidance of doubt where a User has Distributed a User Storyboard or any Completed Work he, she or it is warranting and undertaking that he, she or it has obtained all required permissions for the content contained therein and hereby agrees to indemnify Binumi and any third-party User for and against all and any liability that Binumi or such User may suffer by reason of any infringement of third-party intellectual property rights arising from the Distribution of such Completed Work or User Storyboard.
(14) Binumi performs, or may perform, technical functions necessary to offer the Services, including, but not limited to, the technical processing and transmission of email communications to perform the email service provided as part of the Services, and transcoding and/or reformatting Content to allow its use throughout the Services. Each User agrees and acknowledges that Binumi may send messages including, but not limited to, notifications, special offers, promotions, commercial advertisements, and marketing materials, in connection with the Services.
7. Termination
(1) Any Subscription entered into by Binumi or a Binumi Partner with any Subscriber for a specific duration shall terminate at the end of the relevant Subscription period if further Charges are not paid for a renewed Subscription period.
(2) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof Binumi may terminate any Subscription account and the right to use the Services if the Subscriber or any User accessing the Services under that Subscription account is in breach of any provision of these Terms. Such termination may be effected, with or without prior notice, irrespective of whether such breach is continuing or has been cured.

(4) The rights granted to Users as set out in Section 6 above are personal to those Users.
(5) Save for the limited licence to use the Content granted to all Users, Users shall not be entitled to nor may any User claim any proprietary rights in any Content provided as part of the Services nor may any part of such Content be used as a trademark or service. If a User provides any of the Content to a third person as part of his, her or its work product such third person shall have no right to reuse the Content for any purpose other than a review of that User’s work without becoming a Subscriber.
(6) When a User uploads Personal Content onto the Binumi Site, such User shall continue to retain all such rights that he, she or it may have in such Personal Content, subject to the limited licence following. By uploading any Personal Content a User hereby grants to Binumi a limited licence to use, modify, delete from, add to, publicly perform, publicly display, reproduce, and distribute such Personal Content solely on, through or in connection with the Services, including through Linked Services in any media formats and through any media channels, except that any of Personal Content marked "private" will not be distributed by Binumi outside the Services and Linked Services.
(7) If a User has shared Personal Content via a User Storyboard, that Personal Content is copied to the shared User’s account. Deletion of the Personal Content by the User will not delete that Personal Content in the account of any User with whom that Content has been shared. In a similar manner if Personal Content is shared to a team storage account the deletion of the Personal Content by the User will nit delete that Person Content from the team storage account. Once Personal Content is distributed to a Linked Service or incorporated into other aspects of the Services, Binumi is under no obligation to delete or ask other Users or a Linked Service to delete that Personal Content, and therefore it may continue to appear and be used indefinitely. By making a decision to Distribute a Completed Work based upon a User Storyboard a User is granting an irrevocable licence, subject to these Terms, to other Users and third parties to modify and distribute such Completed Work within the Binumi Service (but not outside it) in any manner they see fit.
(8) The licence referred to in sub-Section 9(6) above is non-exclusive (meaning the User is free to license his, her or its Personal Content to anyone else in addition to Binumi), fully-paid and royalty-free (meaning that Binumi is not required to pay that User or anyone else deriving rights from the User for the use of his, her or its Personal Content that he, she or it uploads onto the Binumi Site), sub-licensable (so that Binumi is able to use its affiliates, subcontractors and other partners such as Internet content delivery networks and wireless carriers to provide the Services), and worldwide (because the Internet and the Services are global in reach).
(9) Each User represents and warrants that: (i) he, she or it owns all and any Personal Content uploaded onto the Binumi Site, or that he, she or it otherwise has the right to grant the licence set forth in this Section 9, and (ii) the uploading of Personal Content on, through or in connection with the Services and/or Linked Services does not and will not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights or any other rights of any person or entity. Save in the case of a Business Subscriber where no licence to use Personal Content is granted, each User agrees to pay all royalties, fees, and any other monies owing to any person or entity by reason of the use of any of Personal Content uploaded by that User onto the Binumi Site and disseminated through the Services and/or Linked Services. Each User further agrees to indemnify Binumi and hold it harmless from all and any liability Binumi may incur by reason of that User uploading Personal Content and its subsequent distribution whether combined with Binumi’s Content or with the content of any other User and whether distributed through Linked Services or otherwise.
(10) Binumi reserves the right to limit the storage capacity of Personal Content that Users upload on, through or in connection with the Services.

For the avoidance of doubt where a User uploads Content which is available for use by others such User is warranting that he, she or it, has the full right to use such content and to allow other Users and third parties to do so also. A User’s account profile may not include any form of Prohibited Content, as outlined in Section 11 below. Despite this prohibition, information, materials, products or services provided by other Users or Linked Services may, in whole or in part, be unauthorised, impermissible or otherwise violate these Terms, and Binumi assumes no responsibility or liability for any such material.

Binumi assumes no responsibility for monitoring the Services for the purpose of identifying inappropriate content or conduct or for any other reason.

(2)Business Subscribers may also purchase one-off Add-ons) to their Subscription package as may be offered by Binumi from time to time.
(3)Additional storage and additional Users are only available for purchase as Add-ons with an annual subscription on a subscription basis. Should any Business Subscriber decide to purchase additional storage or Users part-way through their current plan, the amount payable will be prorated for time left in their current billing cycle.
(4)There is no time limit within which Credits must be used but:
- any unused Credits will be lost if a Subscription terminates for any reason;
- no refunds are available for Credits purchased under any circumstances.
(5)Credits will remain valid if a Business Subscriber adjusts its Subscription to an alternative paid Subscription.
7.Commercial Use
(1)A Business Subscription with a Starter or a Team Plan allows Business Subscribers and Users designated by such Business Subscribers to use the Services for the Business Subscriber’s own limited business purposes. Such purposes permit Completed Works to be used by a Business Subscriber for:
- professional and business presentations,
- video presentations to customers and clients of the Business Subscriber;
- catalogues describing the products or services of the Business Subscriber;
- brochures describing the products or services of the Business Subscriber;
- greeting cards promoting the business, products or services of the Business Subscriber; and
- other promotional materials promoting the business of the Business Subscriber; and
and including posting Completed Works on social media or sending by email for any of the above purposes.
(2)A Business Subscription with an Agency Plan allows the Business Subscriber to use the Services both for the purposes specified in Section 7(I) above and for like purposes for any client or brand which has been declared as referenced in Section 3(1) above.
(3)Both Business Subscribers and clients of Business Subscribers subscribing to the Services pursuant to an Agency Subscription may use any Completed Work featuring Binumi Content for limited business and promotional purposes, as referenced in Section 7(1) and, as relevant, in Section 7(2) above both during the duration of any Subscription and, provided there is no breach of these Terms of Use after its termination in perpetuity. If the Business Subscriber or any User authorised by the Business Subscriber breaches these Terms in any way such perpetual right of use shall terminate immediately.
(4)Save as provided above, Completed Works may not be sold, licensed, monetized in any way or otherwise exploited for commercial purposes without an Extended Licence or as otherwise may be agreed in writing as provided in Section 8 below.
(5)Certain clips – both music and video footage - are not available for commercial use. Such restrictions on use are conveyed via a badge notification on the thumbnail which is further brought to the attention of the User if the clip is selected for use.
(6)Users of the Services pursuant to a Business Subscription will be provided with access to Analytics.
8.Extended Licences.
(1)If a Business Subscriber wishes to sell Completed Works or license their re-use it must first apply for an Extended Licence. For the avoidance of doubt the lack of an Extended Licence shall not restrict a Business Subscriber in any way from using a Completed Work for its own internal business or promotional purposes as referenced in Section 7(1) above.
(2)Business Subscribers who wish to use Completed Works in entertainment applications such as books (including electronic books), book covers, magazines, newspapers, editorials, newsletters and in video and other presentations intended to be sold to the mass market or to sell merchandise featuring Content shall only be permitted to do so if they purchase an Extended Licence or if it is otherwise agreed in writing with Binumi that they may do so.
(3)A Business Subscriber may not use any Content as part of a trademark, design mark, trade name service mark or logo unless it has purchased an Extended Licence.
(4)The requirements for the grant of Extended Licence are available on application to Binumi.
9.Sharing Completed Works by Non-Business Subscribers
(1)It is a fundamental feature of the Services that Users can share Completed Works created using the Services with third parties. It is, however, also a term of use that non-business Subscribers (ie Subscribers pursuant to Personal and Educational Subscriptions) may not use Completed Works for commercial purposes without the express prior consent of Binumi. For this reason, the Services contain a feature which blocks incoming Completed Works (including Completed Works posted on storyboards) from Personal and Educational Subscribers. This feature is TURNED OFF as a default but may be turned on by a Business Subscribers’ designated administrator for specific Users authorized within their Subscription or for all Users within their Business Subscription.
(2)To the extent that Business Subscribers turn on the sharing function they should note that they may not use Completed Works (including Completed Works posted on storyboards) made available by Personal or Educational Subscribers as these Subscribers do not have the right to use such Completed Works for commercial purposes and may only share Completed Works with Users within their own or another Business Subscription. To the extent that a Business Subscriber accepts Completed Works from a Personal or Educational Subscriber Binumi may terminate that Subscriber’s Business Subscription forthwith and without notice and the Business Subscriber shall be liable for all and any damage that Binumi may incur by reason of such unauthorized sharing.
10.Requirement for Releases
Footage contained within Binumi’s Multimedia Library is freely available for use by all Subscribers for internal purposes. Business Subscribers should note, however, that where Completed Works are intended for public dissemination, whether for the purpose of promoting the business or services of a Business Subscriber or otherwise pursuant to an Extended Licence, it may be necessary in some cases to obtain releases from or in respect of people, places or other Content featured in any such Completed Works. This is particularly the case where a Business Subscriber features in a Completed Work any image of a person which is capable of recognition and which the User intends to use in a political, advertising or other campaign. Binumi gives no warranty of any kind that all required releases have been obtained. It shall be the responsibility of Business Subscribers and their Users to decide whether releases are required for public dissemination of footage from the Multimedia Library included in any Completed Works and to obtain any such release as may be necessary and Binumi shall have no liability arising from any failure by any Business Subscriber to do so. The attention of Business Subscribers is drawn in particular, but without limitation, to the possible need to obtain releases for the use in Completed Works of Content which depicts:
(a) certain well-known locations
(b) recognisable faces, particularly when using close-ups
(c) recognisable trademarks and logos
(d) events of any kind where it would be reasonable to assume that the organisers of such events might wish to control distribution of images of the event for commercial purposes.
11.Recognisable Faces
Binumi does not seek to control any aspect of the way in which a Subscriber constructs a Completed Work. To the extent therefore that a Completed Work incudes recognisable images of any person and the overall effect of the Completed Work is to portray such person in a way that is derogatory or defamatory in nature in any way whayever, whether or not the Completed Work is publicly disseminated, the Subscriber accepts full responsibility for such portrayal and shall keep Binumi fully indemnified against any claim for damages brought by any such person so portrayed.
12.Watermark
Business Subscribers and all Users authorized to use the Services pursuant to a Business Subscription shall be entitled to remove any watermark from Multimedia Library footage included in Completed Works.
13.High Resolution Files
Business Subscribers shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be permitted to download finished Completed Works which include High Definition (HD) video files from the Multimedia Library and to use them for commercial purposes but otherwise subject always to these Terms.
14.Content ‘Not for Commercial Use’
Notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms a Business Subscriber may not use any Content marked "not for commercial use" for any commercial, promotional, advertorial, endorsement, advertising or merchandising purpose in any Completed Work.
15.Creator of Completed Works
A Business Subscriber shall not falsely represent or imply in any Completed Work that he, she or it is the original creator of a Completed Work that is made up largely of licensed Content.
16.Core Terms
For the avoidance of doubt the Core Terms shall apply to every Business Subscription save to the extent qualified by any of the provisions of these Special Terms for Business Subscribers.

G. STORYBLOCKS END-USER LICENSE AGREEMENT
A.Interpretation. In this End-User License Agreement initially capitalized expressions set out below shall have the meanings set out next thereto:
Stock Files: means Storyblocks media content including graphics, video, audio fonts, photos and/or other files made available by Storyblocks to Subscribers from time to time.
Storyblocks or we or us or our: means Footage Firm, Inc., the operator of videoblocks.com, graphicstock.com, and audioblocks.com.
You or your: means any Subscriber to the Binumi Services who uses Stock Files pursuant to their subscription.
Any use by you of Storyblocks Stock Files is strictly subject to the terms of this End-User License with Storyblocks in addition to the other Terms governing your Subscription.
B.Your Rights. We, Storyblocks, grant you a perpetual, worldwide, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to incorporate the Stock Files you obtain from us via your Binumi Subscription into any work you create. You may incorporate our Stock Files into any project, including feature films, broadcast, commercial, educational, print, multimedia, games, merchandise, and the Internet. Once you incorporate a Stock File into your project, you can share your finished project freely both during and after termination of this this End-user License, but you may not share the underlying individual Stock File as a standalone file with a third party. (However, you can share the Stock Files with your client or other third party for the limited purpose of getting their help with your specific project, assuming you are adding substantial value to the project apart from the Stock Files. Otherwise, they need their own license.) You also agree to use your best efforts to secure the Stock File from being accessed by a third party as a standalone file, but since that’s not always possible, your inability to prevent copying will not be considered a breach of this License.
C.Our Guarantee. We promise that if you use our Stock Files as described in this License, your use will not infringe on the rights (such as copyrights) of a third party (the "Limited Warranty"). We’ll also put our money where our mouth is. In fact, we will provide you up to $20,000 in indemnification if you incur any direct damages from our breaking this promise. Because that’s a big number, we need to make a few things clear, so here come some capital letters. IN NO EVENT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, SHALL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND. OUR MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL BREACHES OF THE LIMITED WARRANTY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE LESSER OF THE ACTUAL, DIRECT DAMAGES SUFFERED BY YOU DIRECTLY ARISING FROM SUCH BREACH AND TWENTY THOUSAND DOLLARS.
Note that trademarks, logos, or copyrights depicted within our Stock Files are not covered by this guarantee. For example, if one of our videos depicts someone holding a brand-name beverage, that label may be protected by copyright and trademark law and should be used at your own risk. (We wouldn’t want you to think that this License lets you reprint Coca-Cola cans.)
D.Limitations. There are a few other limitations we have put in place to protect our artists and other customers:
1. You cannot sell, license, or redistribute our Stock Files, nor can you build your own stock media site with our files. You cannot create a trademark or logo based on our Stock Files. You cannot use automation, such as computer scripts, to download or "scrape" high volumes of our Stock Files. Finally, you cannot use the Stock Files to harm minors, to encourage violence, or for an unlawful purpose, such as defamation.
2. For Stock Files that depict identifiable people ("Models"), you must not depict the Models in a way that a reasonable person would find offensive. Just to be clear, the issue is whether the depiction of the Models themselves is offensive, not whether your project as a whole may be offensive. For example, you could use Stock Files with Models in a documentary about a rare and embarrassing medical condition, but you should not depict the Models in a way that suggests they personally carry the condition, unless our video clip already depicts them that way.
3. For our audio Stock Files, your license does not restrict your right of public performance, but a cue sheet may be required to satisfy the requirements of Performance Rights Organizations ("PROs"). Also, this License allowed you to use our audio clips in YouTube videos, but since we are not associated with YouTube, we cannot prevent other people from incorrectly claiming that your video violates a copyright. If you get such a claim, let us know, and we will make our best efforts to help you resolve the problem. Still, platforms like YouTube could block your content for reasons beyond our control.
4. Some Stock Files may have additional restrictions, such as "editorial use only," which will be noted in the clip’s details.
E.Other Legal Provisions. This part may not be fun to read, but it’s important nevertheless.
1. This Agreement will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding its body of law relating to conflicts of law and copyright law. If any provision of this Agreement is found invalid, the other provisions will not be affected.
2. Except for claims brought in small claims court, all disputes about this Agreement will be settled by arbitration pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), subject to the Federal Arbitration Act. The dispute may be arbitrated either by JAMS or AAA. You are thus GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights EXCEPT for matters that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures are SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. Arbitrator decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
