Terms of Service

Effective: February 9th, 2015

1. Introduction

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the services, websites, and applications (the “Service”) offered by Vivastream.com (“we,” “us,” “our”). Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. We may, without prior notice, change the Service; stop providing the Service or features of the Service, to you or to users generally; or create usage limits for the Service (“Modifications”). If you do not agree to such Modifications, your sole recourse is to immediately stop all use of the Service. If, at any time, these Terms are no longer acceptable to you, you should immediately cease all use of the Service. If a revision to these Terms, in our sole discretion, is material, we will notify you via a posting to our Website or e-mail to the email address associated with your account. By continuing to access or use the Service after the revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.

2. Use of the Service

You may use the Service only as set forth herein, and only in compliance with these Terms and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules and regulations (“Applicable Law”). You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the registration process for using the Service, and to notify us at privacy@vivastream.com of any unauthorized use of your name (“User Name”), password, other account information, or any other breach of security of which you become aware relating to the Service.

You are responsible for safeguarding the password that you use to access the Service and for any activities or actions under your password. We encourage you to use “strong” passwords (that use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols) with your account. Vivastream will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with these requirements.

These Terms of Service are an agreement for use of the Service made available through the Site, and User is not granted a license to any software by these Terms. User will not, directly or indirectly: reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code, object code, or underlying structure, ideas, or algorithms of the Service or any software, documentation, or data related to the Service (“Software”); modify, translate, or create derivative works based on the Service or any Software; or copy (except for archival purposes), distribute, pledge, assign, or otherwise transfer or encumber rights to the Service or any Software; use the Service or any Software for timesharing or service bureau purposes or otherwise for the benefit of a third party; or remove any proprietary notices or labels, or build a competitive product or service.

3. Registration

When you register to become a Member, you hereby represent, warrant and covenant that (a) you will provide Vivastream with accurate, truthful, and complete registration information (including, but not limited to your User Name, e-mail address and a password you will use to access the Service) and (b) you will keep your registration information accurate and up-to-date. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of these Terms, which may result in immediate termination of your Vivastream account.

You shall not:

  • provide any false personal information to Vivastream (including a false User Name) or create any account for anyone other than yourself without such person’s permission;
  • use a User Name that is the name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person;
  • use a User Name or Vivastream account that is subject to any rights of a person other than you without appropriate authorization; or
  • use a User Name that is a name that is otherwise offensive, vulgar or obscene or otherwise unlawful.
  • Vivastream reserves the right to refuse registration of, or cancel a User Name in its sole discretion. You are solely responsible and liable for activity that occurs on your account and shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Vivastream password. You shall never use another Member’s account without such other Member’s prior express permission.

In order to register for the Service, you represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract and become subject to these Terms. The Service is not available to individuals who are younger than 13 years old. Vivastream may, in its sole discretion, refuse to offer the Service to any person and may also change its eligibility criteria at any time. You further hereby acknowledge and agree that, in the event that the Service or use of the Service or access to the Website is prohibited or becomes prohibited in any jurisdiction to which you are subject, your right to access is revoked, and you agree not to use or access the Website or Service in any way.

4. Sign-In Credentials

You agree to: (1) Keep your password secure and confidential; (2) not permit others to use your account; (3) refrain from using any other user’s account; (4) refrain from selling, trading, or otherwise transferring your Vivastream account to another party; and (5) refrain from charging anyone for access to any portion of Vivastream, or any information therein. Further, you are responsible for anything that happens through your account until you close down your account or prove that your account security was compromised due to no fault of your own.

5. Termination

User may terminate these Terms of Service along with the Service at any time, by providing 45 days written notice prior to the commencement of the next renewal term either by sending an email message to contact@vivastream.com or by sending written notice to:

Vivastream Inc.
Attn: Subscription Manager
199 Water St, 34th Floor
New York, NY 10038
Email: contact@vivastream.com

Termination notice will still be bound by term length designated on the signed order form. Orders will automatically renew unless written notice of termination is sent at least 45 days prior to the commencement of the next renewal term unless specifically designated on the order form.

Vivastream may terminate these Terms, the Service itself, and the User’s access to their account and content at any time with or without cause, and with or without notice. Vivastream shall have no liability to User or any third party because of such termination. Once terminated, Vivastream may delete any User archived data within 30 days after the date of termination. All sections of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including, without limitation, warranty disclaimers and limitations of liability.
