When I Communicate with DVI, What are My Rights?
You may request us to apply your digital branding elements (e.g., bitmap of your logo) for custom branding to a copy of our Software to be licensed and delivered to you (the “Software”). If you do so, you need to submit digital branding elements to us that meet our technical and quality standards. If we accept your request, we will use reasonable efforts to apply your digital branding elements in accordance with our technical and quality standards. We may charge a separate fee for digital branding. If you submit your digital branding elements to us, you hereby grant to us and our subcontractors non-exclusive permission to integrate your digital branding elements into such copy of the Software, and you warrant that you hold all rights necessary to grant such permission.
You may request us to “tune” our Software with the goal of increasing the Software’s accuracy and performance for images or videos that you believe are typical in your use cases. If you do so, you need to submit to us sample images or videos that meet our technical and quality standards (“Samples”). If we accept your request, we will use reasonable efforts to tune the Software using all or a portion of the Samples with the goal of improving the Software’s accuracy and performance with images and videos that are substantially similar in format, quality (e.g., image resolution), and subject matter (e.g., materials and visual appearance) to the Samples. We may charge a separate fee for tuning. However, due to uncertainties in computer vision technology, we cannot guarantee any particular level of accuracy, performance or improvement. If you submit Samples to us, you hereby grant to us and our subcontractors non-exclusive permission to (i) use, copy, distribute, transmit, modify and prepare derivative works of the Samples for the tuning, enhancement and development of our existing and new products and services, and (ii) unless you specifically request otherwise in writing at the time that you provide the Samples to us, to exercise the foregoing rights and publicly display and publicly perform the Samples for the purpose of commercially promoting the Software, the Website or Services, or our business, provided that in connection with such promotional use we will not identify you as the source of the Samples and we will use reasonable efforts to remove identifying information and metadata from the Samples.
If you use any of our Software, either independently or to access any of our Services, you acknowledge that each copy of the Software must be properly licensed and may require activation by internet communication with our license management server, and that we may also verify license and activation status of a copy of the Software when that copy of the Product issues a remote update query to our servers. We retain the administrative information associated with those communications, and may use as set forth in our Privacy Policy.
You may choose to submit comments, information or feedback to us regarding the Software or services to us orally or in writing, and if you do so, you hereby grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicenseable right to use the same in any manner for any purpose without compensation to you.
