Terms of Use - Propago Platform

Propago LLC (“Propago”) has created this website (the "Website" or the "Site") to provide an online marketing management platform to help you intelligently manufacture, manage and distribute any of your marketing assets (the “Platform”).

To assist you in using the Platform, and to ensure a clear understanding of the relationship arising from your use of the Platform, we have created (i) this End User Access Agreement (the "Terms") and (ii) a Privacy Policy. Our Privacy Policy explains how we treat information you provide to us through the Platform, and our Terms govern your use of our Platform. Our Terms and Privacy Policy apply to any visitor to the Website and Platform (collectively, “you”), including (i) casual visitors to our Site, who do not use the Platform (“Site Visitors”), and (ii) users who have registered with Propago to use the Platform in connection with either (a) their relationship with Propago, or (b) their relationship with a licensee of Propago (collectively, “Registered Users”). The terms “Propago,” “we” and “us” refer to Propago LLC.

PLEASE READ THIS DOCUMENT CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU ACCESS OR USE THE PLATFORM. BY ACCESSING OR REGISTERING WITH THE PLATFORM, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS SET FORTH BELOW. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS, PLEASE DO NOT ACCESS OUR PLATFORM OR REGISTER TO PARTICIPATE IN OUR SERVICES.

1. Your Agreement.
These Terms govern (i) your use of the Platform, (ii) your receipt of and participation in Propago’s services offered through the Platform (the "Services"); and (iii) your use of information obtained through the Platform, including information, software, artwork, text, video, audio, pictures, content, trademarks, trade dress, and other intellectual property owned by Propago or its licensors and made available to you through the Services (“Propago Content”). Please read these Terms carefully; they impose legal obligations on you and on Propago, and establish our legal relationship. By using the Platform, you are acknowledging that you have read and understood these Terms and agree to be legally bound by them.

In addition, during the registration process for your password (and from time to time as we may require) you may be prompted to click/check an "I Accept" button/box, which further confirms your agreement to be legally bound by these Terms.

2. Our Services: Overview.
The Platform is designed to provide a user-friendly platform where users can create, manage and distribute marketing materials. Registered Users can control the portal’s design, administer users and manage marketing assets. The online personalization engine enables users to change corporate messaging and brand elements instantly across the entire organization. Sales team, affiliates and partners across the nation can utilize finished creative or create customized marketing materials on demand. Account settings determine which materials the user can access, how content can be modified, and whether approval is required on the final piece.

3. Obtaining a Password; Use of Your Password

3.1. Protecting Your Password.
The Platform is only accessible to users that have a password. Once you obtain a password, please keep in mind that we will treat anyone who uses your user name and password as “you.” We will provide this user with all of the rights and privileges that we provide to you, and we will hold you responsible for the activities of a person using your password. Therefore, we recommend that you maintain your user name and password in confidence, and that you refrain from disclosing this information to anyone who might “pretend” to be you with respect to the Platform and your participation in the Services. We also ask that you notify us immediately if you suspect that someone is using your user name and/or password in this or any inappropriate manner.

4. Grant of Rights to Registered Users

4.1. Grant of Rights to Registered Users.
As a Registered User, you are granted the right to access the Platform to create, manage and distribute marketing materials (“User Content”) in connection with your relationship with Propago (or a licensee of Propago, as applicable) for use in connection with your business. You may not modify, copy, distribute, or otherwise use (i) the User Content of other users, or (ii) the Propago Content.

4.2. Duration of Rights.
You will continue to enjoy Your rights under Section 4.1 (Grant of Rights to Registered Users) for as long as you are a Registered User, unless Your password is revoked or suspended for misconduct, as set out in Section 8 (Monitoring; Revocation or Suspension of Use Privileges).

4.3. Grant of Rights to Propago in User Content.
By creating User Content through our Platform, including uploading files for use in connection with our Platform and Services, or otherwise (if such features are available to you), you grant Propago the right to use, copy, reformat, index, modify, display, and distribute your User Content solely for the purposes of providing our Services.

5. Ownership; Reservation of Rights.
The information, software, artwork, text, video, audio, pictures, trademarks, trade dress, and other intellectual property embodied in the Platform, Services or the Propago Content, are the proprietary property of Propago and its licensors, and are protected by U.S. and international copyright and other intellectual property laws, or are used under the principles of fair use. Propago and its licensors retain all rights with respect to the Platform, Services and the Propago Content except those expressly granted to you in these Terms. You agree not to duplicate, publish, display, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from the material presented through the Website, the Platform and/or through the Services unless specifically authorized in writing by Propago.

6. Restrictions.
You agree that you will not: (i) modify, disable, circumvent, deactivate or otherwise interfere with features of the Platform; (ii) decompile, disassemble, reverse-engineer or otherwise attempt to derive the source code of the Platform, except to the limited extent, if any, these activities may be permitted by law despite this restriction; (iii) modify or create derivative works of the Platform; or (iv) sell, rent, lease, sublicense or redistribute Platform.

7. Code of Conduct.
As a condition to your use of the Platform and the Services, you agree to follow our Code of Conduct, set out below. Under this Code, you will not:

  • Upload, email or otherwise transmit any images or other data that is unlawful, obscene, harmful, hateful, invade the privacy of any third party, contain nudity or pornography, or are otherwise objectionable.
  • Disseminate materials that impact or invade the privacy of others, such as photographs, video clips, sound recordings, personally identifiable information, or other materials that reveal personal, private or sensitive information about another person, without that person’s consent.
  • Submit material that is intentionally false, defamatory, unlawfully threatening, or unlawfully harassing.
  • Infringe any third party's copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret, or other proprietary rights or rights of publicity or privacy. Electronic materials – such as music, videos, games, images, and text in electronic form -- can easily be copied, modified and sent over networks (such as the Internet). These electronic materials are thus extremely vulnerable to unauthorized distribution and copyright infringement. These materials may not be transmitted over the Platform without the copyright owner's permission, or without a legitimate "fair use" justification for the transmittal.
  • Transmit materials that contain any viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, cancelbots, or other computer-programming routines that are intended to damage, detrimentally interfere with, surreptitiously intercept, or expropriate any system, data, or personal information.
  • Use the Platform to artificially generate traffic or page links to a Platform or for any other purpose not expressly allowed under these Terms.
  • Use the Platform in a manner that could disable, overburden, or impair the Platform or Services or interfere with any other party's use and enjoyment of the Platform and Services, such as through sending "spam" email.
  • Use the Platform to test or reverse engineer the Platform in order to find limitations, vulnerabilities or to evade filtering capabilities.
  • Seek to obtain access to any materials or information through "hacking," "data harvesting," or through other means we have not intentionally made available to you through the Platform.
  • Use the Platform for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms. For example, you will not use the Platform to violate any law, statute, or regulation (including, without limitation, those governing export control, consumer protection, unfair competition, anti-discrimination, or false advertising).

8. Monitoring; Revocation or Suspension of Use Privileges.
We reserve the right at any time to (i) monitor your use of the Platform, and (ii) terminate or suspend your use of some or all of the Services if you engage in activities that we conclude, in our discretion, breach our Code of Conduct or otherwise violate these Terms or our Privacy Policy. Although we have no – and assume no -- obligation to monitor activities on the Platform, please understand that we may employ filters designed to detect and block inappropriate content under this Code of Conduct. Users should also understand that our Code of Conduct is based in many instances on principles of applicable law. Users who violate our Code of Conduct accordingly may be exposed under these laws to criminal charges, and civil liability to harmed parties for compensatory damages and attorney's fees. Propago reserves the right at all times to disclose information it deems necessary to satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request, consistent with its Privacy Policy.
