Hi, welcome to Nupload! Our products and services are provided by NUPLOAD, BELARUS (“Nupload”, “Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) This is a legal agreement (“Terms”) between you and Company, which you accept when you sign up, download, access, or otherwise use our mobile applications (“Apps”), websites (“Websites”), or other products or services (collectively, the “Services”). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services.
Compliance with Laws
You may use our Services only in compliance with these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations. Some of our Services may include software that is downloaded to your computer, phone, tablet, or other device. You agree that we may automatically upgrade those Services, and these Terms will apply to such upgrades.
Age Restrictions
Any use or access of the Services by anyone under the age of 13 is strictly prohibited. If you are over 13, but still a minor or lack the legal capacity to enter into a contract where you live, you must have a parent or legal guardian’s permission to use the Services, and your parent or legal guardian must agree to be bound by these Terms on your behalf.
Modification of Services
We reserve the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services or any features or portions thereof, including the Company’s “Creator Program” and “Publisher Program” referenced below, without prior notice. You agree that we will not be liable for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Services or any part thereof.
Third-Party Links, Sites and Services
You understand that when using our Services, you will be exposed to content from a variety of sources, and that we are not responsible for the accuracy, usefulness, safety, or intellectual property rights of or relating to such content. You further understand and acknowledge that you may be exposed to content that is inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable. Nupload has no control over, and cannot and will not censor or edit the content of any third-party site. You expressly waive any legal or equitable rights or remedies you may have against Nupload with respect to your use of or exposure to any third-party website, service, or content.
Fees and Charges
We currently provide our Services free of charge, but please be aware that your Internet Service Provider or mobile carrier’s normal rates and fees may apply to your use of Nupload. You are solely responsible for such charges and fees.
Payment
From time to time, Company may elect to offer its (1) “Affiliate Program”, which involves the Company making payments to users of its Services that enroll in the program and based on the number of Views of that user’s video posted to the Services and (2) “Publisher Program”, which involves the Company making payments to users that enroll in the program and based on the number of Views of Nupload videos embedded by that user into its own website. Specific payment amounts will be outlined on the corresponding program description made available by Company on the Website but all payment terms shall be subject to the following conditions:
As a participant in the “Affiliate Program”, you agree that Company shall determine, in its sole and absolute discretion, the number of Views for which you shall be compensated. For purposes of these Terms, a “View” applies to a video made available via the Services in which the video complies with all laws and regulations, as well as these Terms, and is viewed by a legitimate end user intending to view that video and not for purposes of generating multiple views. You agree not to engage in any activity, directly or indirectly, to generate illegitimate views such as using incentives or using any sort of automated or other means. If there is a discrepancy between the number of Views the Company believes were created and the number that you believe were created, the Company will work with you to determine the cause of such discrepancy but the Company’s decision as to the number of Views for which it will compensate you shall be final and Company may withhold some or all payment to you for any reason it deems reasonable. Company shall pay you all amounts due within ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the calendar month in which the corresponding payment was earned. You shall be responsible for any and all federal, state, local and other taxes associated with or arising from payments made to you hereunder.

Disclaimer of Warranty
YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICES ARE MADE AVAILABLE ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. IN ADDITION, Nupload SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY Nupload, Nupload SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM (A) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES; (B) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF OTHER USERS OR THIRD PARTIES; OR (C) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT.
THE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF COMPANY, ITS AFFILIATES, AGENTS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CAUSE OF ACTION SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR STRICT LIABILITY, WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT THE COMPANY DETERMINES THAT IT OWES YOU UNDER THE SECTION LABELED “PAYMENT” ABOVE; OR (B) $100. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS INTENDED TO APPLY WITHOUT REGARD TO WHETHER OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS HAVE BEEN BREACHED OR HAVE PROVEN INEFFECTIVE OR IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW FOR LIMITED LIABILITY OR EXCLUSION OF IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO NOT ALL OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY APPLY TO YOU. YOU acknowledge and understand that the disclaimers, exclusions and limitations of liability set forth HEREin form an essential basis of the agreement between the parties HERETO, that the parties have relied upon such disclaimers, exclusions and limitations of liability, and that absent such disclaimers, exclusions and limitations of liability, the terms and conditions of THESE TERMS would be substantially different.
IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICES OR WITH THESE TERMS, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE USE OF THE SERVICES.
Indemnification
You agree to defend indemnify, and hold Nupload, its parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, customers, partners and licensors, harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, liability, costs and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys' fees) arising from (a) User Content and any other content you submit, post, transmit, link to or otherwise make available on or through the Services, (b) any transaction between you and another user, (c) your use of the Services or your connection to the Service, (d) your violation of these Terms, or (e) your violation of any third party's rights, including but not limited to infringement of any intellectual property right, violation of any proprietary right, or invasion of any privacy or similar rights.

App Store Notice
When you download our Apps, you may do so through a third party’s App Store. You acknowledge that these Terms are between you and us and not with the owner or operator of the App Store (“App Store Owner”). As between the App Store Owner and us, we, and not the App Store Owner, are solely responsible for the Services, including any App, the content, maintenance, support services, and warranty, and addressing any claims relating thereto (e.g., product liability, legal compliance or intellectual property infringement). In order to use the App, you must have access to a wireless network, and you agree to pay all fees associated with such access. You also agree to pay all fees (if any) charged by the App Store Owner in connection with the Services, including the App.
Disputes
In the event of any dispute, we ask that you contact us first and attempt to resolve any dispute you have with us informally by contacting us at [email protected]. If we are not able to resolve the dispute with you informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. Unless you and Nupload agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside, and shall be conducted in the English language. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules, except that Nupload will pay for your reasonable filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000 and is non-frivolous (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys' fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts for matters related to data security, intellectual property, or unauthorized access to the Services.
ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN EACH PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND Nupload ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Entire Agreement; Severability
These Terms and any documents referenced herein constitute the entire agreement between you and Nupload in connection with the Services. Except as otherwise provided in these Terms, these Terms may only be modified in a writing signed by an authorized officer of Nupload. If any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid, then that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary, and, in any event, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
Assignment; Waiver
These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Nupload without restriction.
Nupload’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver, express or implied, by either party of any breach of or default under these Terms will constitute a continuing waiver of such breach or default or be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms are governed exclusively by the laws of the Belarus, without reference to its conflicts of law principles, and without regard to the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods.
YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE OR BE FOREVER BARRED, NOTWITHSTANDING ANY STATUTE OR LAW TO THE CONTRARY.
