The individual who downloaded the Content through the Website will be considered that person unless another individual was designated by the Drone by Nature User at the time of download on the checkout page of the Website or in writing to the Contributor.

Print Runs for Printed Productions:
The “Print Run” refers to the number of physical printed copies of the Content as part of a Production or packaging, counted by the lesser of the number of physical analogy printed (non-digital) copies or the circulation total for any individual edition containing the Content. Electronic copies are not counted, even if in a physical medium (e.g., a DVD).

(The Contributors explicitly specifies the ‘Print Run’ number in the License Agreement provided to their customers.)

Use of Stills from Video:
The Customer should not use “stills” derived from the Content, except in connection with the in-context marketing, promotion, and advertising of the Customer’s Production that incorporates the Content.

Items of physical products sold or distributed by or for the Customer, including toys, games, physical electronic products, and paper goods.

What is not included in “Merchandise”:

books or periodicals, or
music, video, or audiovisual Productions that are in physical media (e.g., in a CD, DVD), or
packaging or informational or promotional collateral that accompanies such a Production containing the Content where the Content is not sold separately from the Production – all of which are deemed to be included in the term “Production” described in and covered by the license in Section 2 (Media License), rather than “Merchandise.”

(Nevertheless, the Contributor retains the freedom to, at any time, opt to grant a License that permits the Customer to utilize the Content in an unlimited number of merchandise items if they so desire.)

8. Representations, Warranties, and Disclaimers

Contributor Warranties:
The Contributor possesses the right and authority to enter into and grant the rights in the Content, subject to all applicable limitations, disclaimers, and exclusions herein.

In adherence to the provisions outlined in Sections 6 and 7 above, Content in its unaltered form, when downloaded and utilized in compliance with a License Agreement, relevant laws, and the responsibilities and obligations of the Customer, will not infringe upon any copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, and it will not contravene the rights of privacy or publicity of any third parties.

Limited Warranty:
The Contributor affirms that there are no material defects in the Content hindering its download from the Website and its permitted use as outlined in a License Agreement. Should material defects be present, the Customer’s sole recourse is to either (i) request a replacement copy within 30 days of download or (ii) receive a refund of the fee if we ascertain that defects persist.
Representation about the Customer:
If the Customer is an individual, they represent and warrant that they are of sufficient legal age and have the legal capacity to create binding legal obligations as outlined in the License Agreement.

Representation of Individual User:
If the Customer is the individual downloading the Content, the Customer represents that they are the Drone by Nature User associated with the account. If entering into a License Agreement on behalf of an employer, licensee, or any other entity, the Customer warrants that they have the full right and authority to execute, deliver, and perform a License Agreement on behalf of such entity. If lacking such authority, the Customer agrees to be personally liable for any breaches of a License Agreement or violation of intellectual rights.

9. Indemnification

The Contributor does not commit to defending, indemnifying, and holding the Customer harmless from any actual or threatened third-party lawsuit, claim, or legal proceeding (each, a “Claim”) alleging a breach or facts that would constitute a breach of their express representations and warranties in a License Agreement. This includes claims that the distribution or use of Content downloaded and used by the Customer would result in the breach of any of such representations and warranties.

The Customer agrees to indemnify and hold the applicable Content Contributor, harmless from any and all damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses arising out of or relating to any use related claim. This indemnity should not be applied to the Contributor if the claim arises from a Content Contributor’s breach of a certification, representation, or warranty made to the Customer.

10. Limitations of Liability

The Content Contributor does not accept liability for any punitive, special, indirect, exemplary, consequential, or incidental damages, lost profits. This stance applies to situations arising under the License Agreement or in connection with the license, the Customer, or any of the Customer representatives’ use or exploitation of Content, or the Content information. This holds true even if we have been notified of the possibility of such damages, costs, or losses, whether the action is based on contract, tort (including negligence), infringement of intellectual property rights, or otherwise.

The Customer acknowledges and agrees that (i) the fees for the use of the Content reflect and are set in reliance upon the allocation of risk and the limitations of liability set forth in the License Agreement, and (ii) the limitations of liability are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between the Customer and the Contributor. Despite anything else in the License Agreement, the Content Contributor shall not be liable for any damages, costs, or losses arising as a result of particular modifications made to the Content by the Customer, any of the Customer’s representatives, or any third party after the Content is downloaded or the particular context in which the Content is used.

11. Term and Termination

In the event of a substantial breach by the Customer: The License will automatically be ceased without prior notice if the Customer does not remedy a significant breach or any other substantial failure to adhere to the terms of the License Agreement within 14 days of receiving written notice from the Contributor about the same. Upon termination, to the best extent feasible, the Customer is required to promptly: (i) discontinue the use of the Content; (ii) delete or eliminate the Content from the Customer’s locations, computer systems, and storage (whether electronic or physical); and (iii) if applicable, ensure that the Customer Representatives and licensees also take similar actions.

Survival: The terms and conditions outlined in Sections 1, 4 through 14 will persist beyond the termination or expiration of the License Agreement.

12. Payments & Taxes

Sale of License: All License sales are considered final. The Contributor is not obligated to refund any fees paid for Content under any circumstances unless there is a material breach of the expressly stated representations and warranties for such Content. However, if, at his sole discretion, the Contributor decides to grant a refund upon the Customer’s request, the license provided in the License Agreement for the Content will be voided, as if it were never granted. Refunds could then be issued through means determined by the Contributor.

Taxes: The Customer is responsible for assessing and remitting any applicable sales taxes, use taxes, value-added taxes, property taxes, customs duties, and any related interest or penalties imposed by any jurisdiction due to the License or any Content use.

No Set-Offs, Withholdings, or Deductions: All amounts owed to the Contributor must be paid in the approved payment currency on the Website without any set-off, deduction, or withholding, including tax withholdings or charges for currency conversion. If, under the law (e.g., tax law), the Customer is required to withhold any amount from payments to the Contributor or if a financial institution or other intermediary deducts any amount for currency conversion or other services from the Customer’s payment to the Contributor, the price for the applicable License will be increased by an amount that ensures the net amount received by the Contributor equals the original License sale price.

13. Parties

Customer: As defined in the License Agreement, the terms “Licensee”, “the Customer,” and “theirs” pertain to the individual identified as the “Licensee” during the download of Content from the Website or upon the initial download.
