3.4. Location of Services.  Services are performed remotely or at 3Play Media or its Affiliates’ facilities and are not performed at Customer’s locations. Services may be performed outside of the United States.

4. SOURCE MATERIALS

4.1. Customer Responsibility.  Customer represents and warrants that (i) it either owns fully and outright or otherwise possesses and has obtained all rights, approvals, licenses, consents and permissions as are necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, exercise its rights under this Agreement, and  allow 3Play Media to use the Source Materials under this Agreement; (ii) the Source Materials, and their use in connection with the Services, as set out in the Agreement and Orders, directly or indirectly, does not infringe, violate or misappropriate any third party’s rights; and (iii) Customer complies with all applicable laws and regulations, including those related to data privacy, export control, and transfer of data to and from the United States.  Customer will indemnify, defend and hold 3Play Media harmless from and against any and all costs, liabilities, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred arising out of or in connection with a claim, suit, action, or proceeding brought by a third party against 3Play Media relating to the Source Materials or Customer’s use of the 3Play Media Materials in breach of the terms of this Agreement.  

4.2. Transmission.  Customer will provide 3Play Media a copy of the Source Materials and not the original Source Materials. 3Play Media is not responsible for any loss of, damage to, or destruction of any Source Materials, including any loss associated with electronic transmission. 

4.3. Quality of Source Materials.  3Play Media may reject Source Material for any legitimate reason, including that it considers the Source Material to be of such poor quality that transcription is impossible or would be overly burdensome on its resources. 3Play Media will notify Customer of such rejection via the 3Play Media Portal or email.  Upon receipt of such notice, Customer may resubmit an alternate version of the impacted Source Material.   

5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

5.1. Source Materials.  Customer retains ownership of all right, title and interest in and to all Source Materials. Customer grants 3Play Media permission to use the Source Materials and Deliverables as required for 3Play Media and its Personnel (and Vendors who are acting solely on 3Play Media’s or its Affiliates’ behalf) to provide use of the 3Play Media Portal, the API, the Services and the Deliverables to Customer. 

5.2. Deliverables.  All Deliverables are the sole property of Customer upon Customer’s payment in full of all associated fees due hereunder. Any copyrightable work in the Deliverables shall be a “work made for hire”.  Customer grants 3Play Media a non-exclusive, worldwide, and royalty-free right to run the Source Materials and Deliverables through speech recognition software (in their original form but with an anonymized file name) in order to provide its services and to improve the performance of the Services. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer acknowledges that once the files have been run through the speech recognition software the software algorithms use the resulting speech to text to teach and improve its services (such improvements, “Machine Learning”), any such Machine Learning cannot be “unlearned”.   

5.3. 3Play Media Materials.  All right, title and interest in and to the Services, the API, the 3Play Media Portal and Pre-Existing Materials, and in each case, all derivatives and copies thereof (including any and all patents, copyrights, utility models, industrial designs/design patents, trade secret rights, registered and/or unregistered trademarks, trade names and other proprietary and/or industrial rights embodied therein or associated therewith) (collectively, the “3Play Media Materials”) are the sole property of  3Play Media (or, as applicable, its licensors). All rights not expressly granted to Customer in this Agreement are reserved by 3Play Media and its licensors. To the extent any Pre-Existing Material is incorporated into any Deliverable, 3Play Media hereby grants to Customer a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty free, fully paid-up license to use such Pre-Existing Material solely for Customer’s lawful use, distribution and exploitation of the Deliverables and not separate therefrom.  

5.4. 3Play Media welcomes ideas, suggestions, and feedback about the 3Play Media Materials (“Feedback”).  Customer provides Feedback voluntarily, and 3Play Media may use and incorporate any Feedback that Customer provides to 3Play Media or its Affiliates into the Services and/or the 3Play Media Materials, without restriction. Feedback is not confidential. 3Play Media is under no obligation to (1) pay compensation or provide attribution for any Feedback; or (2) respond to any Feedback.

6. FEES; PAYMENT TERMS

6.1. Payment Obligation.  Customer agrees to pay 3Play Media for the Services as specified in the applicable Order, or if no rate is stated, at 3Play Media’s then-current rates, available at https://www.3playmedia.com/all-pricing/.  Orders may not be canceled or refunded.  A 2% late fee may be charged for payments not made in compliance with Section 6.5.

6.2. Prepayment.  Customer may elect to pre-pay for the Services.  The prepayment election is referred to in an Order as “Prepaid Services” or “Prepay Commitment”. This Prepay Commitment is used as a credit, against which Customer orders Services. Discounted rates are offered for Prepaid Services in return for a Customer’s promise to use the Prepaid Services in full within two years of the Effective Date (“Balance Term”).  Any Prepay Commitment amount that is unused at the end of the Balance Term is forfeited.   

6.3. Pay As You Go.  Customer may elect to pay for Services as they are performed.  The pay as you go election will be referred to in an Order as “Pay As You Go”. Customer will pay for all Pay As You Go Services performed on a monthly basis, in arrears.  

6.4. Rate Increases.  3Play Media may increase standard rates and fees at any time, (but not more than once annually) upon at least 30 days of notice in the 3Play Media Portal or other prior written notice directly to Customer.  Rate increases do not apply to rates that are specified in an Order as being valid for a period of time. Except as expressly set forth in the SLA, there are no refunds.  

6.5. Payment Terms.  Payment is due within 30 days after the date of 3Play Media’s invoice (which will be emailed to Customer on the applicable invoice date) and will be made in US Dollars. If Customer fails to pay 3Play Media’s charges (other than charges disputed in good faith) within sixty (60) days after the applicable due date of the invoice, 3Play Media may suspend the provision of Services, access to the 3Play Media Portal, and transfer of Deliverables. For clarity, 3Play Media will not initiate suspension while Customer is disputing charges reasonably and in good-faith and is cooperating diligently in resolving the dispute.  Customer must ensure that any requirements and/or data necessary to support the purchasing or payment process is communicated to 3Play Media and obtained prior to the rendering of Services under this Agreement.

6.6. Taxes.  Fees are exclusive of taxes. Customer is responsible for the payment of all sales, use and similar taxes arising from or relating to the Services, except for taxes related to the net income of 3Play Media and any taxes or obligations imposed upon 3Play Media under federal, state and local wage laws.

7. CONFIDENTIALITY; PERSONAL DATA

Non-disclosure.  The receiving party must not disclose the disclosing party’s  Confidential Information to any person or entity except to Affiliates and its and their directors, officers, employees, Accessibility Service Professionals, Vendors, subcontractors, outside consultants, or advisors ( “Representatives”) who (a) have a need to know such Confidential Information in the course of the performance of their duties for the receiving party and (b) are bound by a duty of confidentiality no less protective of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information than this Agreement. Each party accepts responsibility for the actions of its Representatives and will protect the other party’s Confidential Information in the same manner as it protects its own, but in no event less than reasonable care. 

7.2. Not Confidential Information.  Information is not Confidential Information if it: (i) is known prior to receipt from the disclosing party, without any obligation of confidentiality; (ii) becomes known to the receiving party directly or indirectly from a source other than one having an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (iii) becomes publicly known or otherwise publicly available, except through a breach of this Agreement; or (iv) is independently developed by the receiving party without use of the disclosing party’s Confidential Information. 

7.3. Compelled Disclosure.  The receiving party may disclose Confidential Information pursuant to the requirements of applicable law, legal process or government regulation, provided that it gives the disclosing party reasonable prior written notice to permit the disclosing party to contest such disclosure, and such disclosure is otherwise limited to the required disclosure.

7.4. DPA.  The terms of the Data Processing Addendum, located on 3Play Media’s website at https://www.3playmedia.com/account-terms/dpa/ (the “DPA”) are hereby incorporated into this Agreement in their      entirety.

8. THIRD PARTY SITES

The 3Play Media Portal may allow Customer to access its Source Materials through connections to third-party websites and applications. Such access is provided for convenience only. Interactions with third parties and their websites are governed by the third parties’ own terms of service and not this Agreement. 3Play Media disclaims all responsibility for third party websites, and their availability. 

3Play Media may integrate products or features offered by third parties (“Third Party Products”) into its Services, and offer such Third Party Products to Customer as components of its Services.  Third Party Products are subject to the terms available at https://www.3playmedia.com/account-terms/third-party/
