PART II
Amity Solutions’s goal is to create a positive and safe online community experience. To promote this goal, we discourage and prohibit certain types of conduct that may be harmful to other users or to Amity Solutions. With Amity Solutions’s services, we grant you the access to the Amity Solutions application program interface(s) (API(s)), webhook, sample software code, and other related websites, networks, applications, SDKs, and other materials provided or made available by Amity Solutions (together, the “Platform”) that enable you to implement the Amity Solutions social, chat, live video and bot platform services offered by Amity Solutions (collectively, the “Services”) on one or more website(s), web application(s), or mobile application(s) owned and controlled by you.
This Acceptable Use Policy sets out a list of acceptable and unacceptable conducts for our Services. Please read it carefully. You are responsible for your use of our Services and for any use of the Services made using your account.
To use Amity Solutions’s Services, you warrant that you meet the qualification listed below:
Amity Solutions shall be entitled to investigate and prosecute violations of any of the above to the fullest extent permitted under applicable laws. If we believe a violation of this Acceptable Use Policy is deliberate or presents a real risk of harm to other authorized end users, our customers, the Services or any third parties, Amity Solutions reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to suspend or terminate your access to the Services.
Intellectual Property
The Services are entirely owned by Amity Solutions and it is licensed, not sold, to you. All the elements of the Services are protected by copyright and trademark laws, international conventions, and all other applicable laws. You hereby acknowledge that you will not acquire rights, title or interest to the Product, other than what set forth in these terms.
You acknowledge that Amity Solutions is currently developing and will subsequently develop new features and modules of the Services, hence its form and the nature might change in the future. Nothing in these terms shall impair or limit Amity Solutions’s right to continue with the development, maintenance and/or distribution of Services and any other existing or future products.
1) Updating terms on Acceptable Use Policy
We work constantly to improve our Services and develop new features to make our products better for you and our community. As a result, we may need to update these terms from time to time to accurately reflect our Services and practices. We will only make changes if the provisions are no longer appropriate or if they are incomplete, and only if the changes are reasonable and take due account of your interests.
We hope that you will continue using our Service, but if you do not agree to our updated terms and no longer want to be a part of the Amity Solutions’s Platform, you can delete your account at any time.
2) Account suspension or termination
We want our Platform to be a safe and secure place for everyone. Therefore, if we determine that you have clearly, seriously or repeatedly breached our terms or policies, we may suspend or permanently disable access to your account. We may also suspend or disable your account if you repeatedly infringe other people's intellectual property rights or where we are required to do so for legal reasons.
Where we take such action, we'll let you know and explain any options you have to request a review, unless doing so may expose us or others to legal liability; harm our community of users; compromise or interfere with the integrity or operation of any of our services, systems or products; or where we are restricted due to technical limitations; or where we are prohibited from doing so for legal reasons.
You can contact us at support.asc@amity.co if your account has been disabled and you think that we have disabled your account by mistake.
3) Disputes
We try to provide clear rules so that we can limit or hopefully avoid disputes between you and us. If a dispute does arise, however, it's useful to know upfront where it can be resolved and what laws will apply.
If you are a consumer, the laws of the country in which you reside will apply to any claim, cause of action or dispute that you have against us that arises out of or relates to these terms or Amity Solutions’s Services, and you may resolve your claim in any competent court in that country that has jurisdiction over the claim. In all other cases, you agree that the claim must be resolved exclusively in the United Kingdom, at the Court of London. You also agree that you submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim, and that the laws of England and Wales will govern these terms and any claim, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
Should you have any question that was not addressed so far, or should you simply wish to better understand how Amity Solutions deals with your personal data or, in general, your rights under GDPR and PDPA, please please feel free to email us at legal@amitysolutions.com.
