5. USER CONTENT
You can upload your photos to A2E and create amazing Avatars. Your original content and your AI-generated content belong to you, and we claim no ownership over such content. You would need to give us a permission to use that content (for our AI to generate you Avatars). You take this permission away when your Avatars are ready.
A2E may allow you to upload, edit, create, store and share content, including photos and videos, as well as generate and download your Avatars (“User Content“). We do not claim ownership over your User Content.
We want you to enjoy the functionality of A2E seamlessly, therefore, we would require a permit (called a license and referenced as a “Company License” explained further) to use your User Content uploaded to the application. We would like to highlight that the Company license is limited within both the purpose of our usage of your User Content and parties we might share this User Content with. Sharing of your User Content would be typically limited to our service providers and/or affiliates, which ensure that the application is functioning as intended. We do not sell or share otherwise any of your User Content with irrelevant third parties and do not receive any proceeds out of its usage, except for ensuring the appropriate functionality and further development of the application.

The Company License is for the limited purpose of operating A2E or if otherwise implied by the Using of A2E and its services unless you have provided us your additional explicit consent for the different purpose where required by applicable law. The Company License is time-limited in the sense that it automatically terminates when you delete the User Content from A2E’s library or by terminating your account.
You acknowledge and agree that our use of your User Content will not result in any injury to you or to any person that you authorized to act on your behalf.
here we impose some rules as to the content you may want to upload. Namely, you must own the photos you upload, and if you don’t, then you must respective rights to upload such content to A2E. Also, in case you wish to upload a photo depicting your friend or someone else other than you, you may do so only with their consent. If you upload someone else’s content to A2E and we receive claims, you will indemnify A2E for such claims (it means that we will ask you to financially compensate us these claims). We encourage you to observe these rules and not harm others using their content without consent.
You represent and warrant that:
- you own the User Content edited and adjusted by you on or through A2E or otherwise have the right to grant the rights and licenses set forth in these Terms
- you agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and any other monies owed by reason of the User Content you intend to edit and adjust on or through A2E and warrant to us that any usage of third-party User Content is cleared by you with the respective rightholder

- you have the legal right and capacity to enter into these Terms in your jurisdiction.
You must not upload, edit, create, store or share any User Content that violates these Terms or to which you do not have all the rights necessary to grant us the Company License described above.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless us and each of our respective officers, directors, agents, partners and employees (individually and collectively, “Company Parties“) from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, expenses or costs (“Claims“) arising out of or related to (i) your Use of A2E; (ii) your User Content or Feedback; (iii) your violation of these Terms; (iv) your violation, misappropriation or infringement of any rights of another (including intellectual property rights or privacy rights); and (v) your conduct in connection with A2E.

12. DISCLAIMERS
Sometimes the things may not work out as planned. And we don’t claim or guarantee that A2E will always work perfectly. Just as we can’t claim or guarantee that you won’t see any unexpected results while generating your Avatars – it’s very unpredictable, although we are always working on AI’s safety settings.
We do not control, endorse or take responsibility for any User Content (and its loss) or third-party content linked to A2E. You acknowledge sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from your use of any third-party websites or resources.
Your Use of A2E is at your sole risk.

You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of A2E within your Use.
Magic Avatars feature uses external technology Stable Diffusion AI. Due to this, we cannot fully control the results generated by the Magic Avatars feature, and therefore these Avatars in no way represent our official policy or position on religion, ethnic group, club, organization, company, individual, or anyone or anything. We make reasonable efforts to moderate the Magic Avatars feature by configuring the AI setting, which, in any case, are only those that are accessible to us. We do not and cannot moderate the User Content. By agreeing to the Terms and/or purchasing, you agree to the above disclaimer and waive any claims against us due to the generated Avatars and Videos.
13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
The Company, as well as Company’s representatives or affiliates (the “Company Parties“) will not be liable to you under any theory of liability — whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise — for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, punitive or special damages or lost profits, even if you have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
The total liability of the Company and the other Company Parties, for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or A2E, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the amount paid, if any, by you to Use A2E. In no event will the Company’s total liability arising out of or in connection with these Terms or from the Use of or inability to Use A2E exceed the amounts you have paid to Use A2E or ten ($10) U.S. dollars, if you have not had any payment obligations to the Company, as applicable. The exclusion and limitations of damages set forth above are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between the Company and you.
The limitations set forth in this Section will not limit or exclude liability for fraud or intentional misconduct of the Company or the other Company Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.
14. RELEASE
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release the Company and the other Company Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands, and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between the Users and the acts or omissions of third parties. You expressly waive any rights you may have under California Civil Code § 1542 as well as any other statute or common law principles that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims that you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.
15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; BINDING ARBITRATION
Please read the following Section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with the Company and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.
Except for small claims disputes in which you or the Company seek to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or the Company seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and the Company waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or A2E resolved in court. Instead, all disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or A2E will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration held in Santa Clara County, California in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“Rules“) of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS“), which are available on the JAMS website and hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS or waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS BY EITHER YOU OR US WILL ONLY BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST US.
You and the Company agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (“FAA“), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual. You and the Company agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee and the Company will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by the Company, the Company will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and the Company agree that the state or federal courts of the State of California and the United States sitting in Santa Clara County, California have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.
ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR A2E MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM AROSE; OTHERWISE, THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AND THE COMPANY WILL NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSERT THE CLAIM.
You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section by notifying the Company in writing. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve Disputes in accordance with this Section.
16. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE
This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of California.
These Terms and your Use of A2E will be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. However, some countries (including those in the European Union) have laws that require agreements to be governed by the local laws of the user’s country. This paragraph doesn’t override those laws.
Any dispute between you and the Company that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of California and the United States, respectively, sitting in Santa Clara County, California.
17. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may make changes to these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the amended Terms and update the “Effective date” above. In case we make substantial changes to the Terms, including the changes which might affect your rights, we will always notify you via in-app consent, email, or any other means of communication we may deem fit. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must stop Using A2E. Your continued Use of A2E after we provide the notice will imply your acceptance of those changes.
18. ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS
