ekoz.ai Terms of Service

Effective Date: July 25, 2024

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to your use of ekoz.ai, and any associated software applications, content, and websites (all together, “Services”). These Terms form an agreement between you and Digitent Corporation (“Ekoz”).

THESE TERMS CONTAIN IMPORTANT PROVISIONS FOR RESOLVING DISPUTES THROUGH MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.   

By accessing or using the Services or other elements of the Services, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND by these Terms.  If you do not want to accept all of the terms, conditions and notices of these Terms, you must immediately discontinue your use and access of the Services.

1.              SERVICES GENERALLY

Ekoz’s ekoz.ai is an audio ad-tech solution designed to deliver programmatic host read ads automatically and with minimal friction using generative AI and voice replication technologies.  Among other things, the Services will allow podcast or other audio hosts or their agents (“Host Users”) to provide us with audio files (in .mp3 format or such other format as may be requested by Ekoz) and related data, including transcripts or existing audio files, of an individual’s voice and individual background for the purposes of synthesizing and generating an AI voice model unique to that individual (each, a “Voiceprint”) using and incorporating our proprietary AI processes and voice generator software that underlie the Services. The Services will allow advertisers or their agents (“Advertiser Users”) to plan and buy audio ads and use a Voiceprint to create one or more synthetic host read ads and distribute them programmatically.  For more information, please visit https://www.ekoz.ai/.

2.              ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS

When you visit the Services or send e-mails to us, you are communicating with us electronically. You consent to receive communications from us electronically. We will communicate with you by e-mail or by posting notices on the Services. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

3.              CONTENT

Your Content. You may provide input to the Services (“Input”), and the Services will generate output based on the Input (“Output”). Input might include things like biographical information, podcast show description, existing audio files, voice recordings, or talking points for an advertiser’s products or services, and Output could include a product or service ad transcript or the digital replica of an individual’s voice and audio personal characteristics, among other things. Input and Output are collectively “Content.” You are responsible for Content, including ensuring that it does not and is not alleged to violate any applicable law, these Terms, or the privacy, intellectual property, publicity or other rights of any third party. You represent and warrant that you have all rights, licenses, and permissions needed to provide Input to our Services, and in submitting Input you will not be infringing any rights of any third party, including without limitation intellectual property rights (such as copyright or trade mark), privacy or publicity rights, rights of confidentiality or rights under contract.

Ownership of Content. As between you and Ekoz, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you (a) retain your ownership rights in your Input and (b) own the Output. Subject to the license granted in these Terms and other limitations, we hereby assign to you all our right, title and interest, if any, in and to Output.

Similarity of Content. Due to the nature of our Services and artificial intelligence generally, Output may not be unique and other users may receive the same or similar Output from our Services. Our assignment above does not extend to other users’ Output or any Third Party Output. You agree to hold Ekoz harmless against any claims related to another user or third party using the same or similar content, information, recordings, or materials that you receive as Output from the Services.

Use of Content. Content is not to be considered private or confidential, and you agree not to provide any Input in which you have an expectation of privacy.

(a) Personal Inputs. If you are a Host User and submit Personal Input, you grant Ekoz and its sublicensees a non-exclusive, royalty free, worldwide license, during any period in which you maintain an account with us, to use Personal Inputs for commercial purposes solely (a) to create, develop, synthesize, maintain and train a Voiceprint specific to you and (b) in connection with the Services and the placement of ads on one or more podcasts or other shows that you host or on which you appear as a regular co-host, guest or panelist. “Personal Input” means a Host User’s voice, biographic information, and other personal characteristics. Subject to our legal obligations, unless a Host User direct us in writing to permanently erase the Voiceprint and Personal Input applicable to such Host User, we may, but are not obligated to, maintain a copy of each for future use in the event the Host User continues to use, or resumes using, the Services.

(b) All Other Inputs. By submitting Input other than Personal Input, you hereby grant Ekoz an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, royalty free, worldwide license to use, telecast, copy, perform, display, edit, distribute and otherwise exploit Input, or any portion thereof, and any corresponding Output (including but not limited to an Voiceprint) generated from or using such Input, together in either case with any ideas, concepts, or know how contained therein, with or without attribution, and without the requirement of any permission from or payment to you or to any other person or entity, in any manner (including, without limitation, for commercial, publicity, trade, promotional, or advertising purposes) and in any and all media now known or hereafter devised, and to prepare derivative works of, or incorporate into other works, such User Material, and to grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing without any payment of money or any other form of consideration to you or to any third party.

5.              Output monitoring

Artificial intelligence and machine learning are rapidly evolving fields of study. We are constantly working to improve our Services to make them more accurate, reliable, safe, and beneficial. Given the probabilistic nature of machine learning, use of our Services may, in some situations, result in Output that does not accurately reflect real people, places, or facts. 

When you use our Services, you understand and agree:

·                You must evaluate Output for accuracy and appropriateness for your use case, including using human review as appropriate, before using or sharing Output from the Services or actively monitoring the Services automatic use of Output.

·                Our Services may provide incomplete, incorrect, or offensive Output that does not represent Ekoz’s views. If Output references any third party products or services, it doesn’t mean the third party endorses or is affiliated with Ekoz.

HOST USERS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SERVICES WILL ALLOW THE PUBLICATION OF OUTPUT AUTOMATICALLY OR AT THE DIRECTION OF AN ADVERTISER USER.   USING THE FUNCTIONALITY WITHIN THE SERVICES, HOST USERS MAY OPT TO BE NOTIFIED AND/OR EDIT AND APPROVE ANY OUTPUT PRIOR TO PUBLICATION PROVIDED HOWEVER HOST USERS MAY NOT EDIT ANY INPUT THAT IS INTENDED BY THE APPLICBALE ADVERTISER TO BE A HOST-READ SCRIPT AND THAT IS SPECIFIED AS VERBATIM.

Notwithstanding, you acknowledge and agree that you remain solely responsible for all Output published by you and by the Services on your behalf. You may, but are not required to, opt to have the Services require you to affirmatively approve all Output before it is published by the Services. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR USE OF ALL OUTPUT, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER YOU HAVE REVIEWED THE OUTPUT BEFORE IT IS PUBLISHED. Each Advertiser User agrees to indemnify and hold harmless us, our affiliates, our personnel, and the Host Users from and against any costs, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees) from any claims, demands, investigations or proceedings arising out of or relating to their Input and the use of Output or its publication by the Services (regardless of whether Output is automatically published), including but not limited to Output that is alleged to be misleading, false, defamatory, offensive, or illegal.

6.              EKOZ DOES NOT ENDORSE OR RECOMMEND ANY SPECIFIC PRODUCTS OR SERVICES

References to, or descriptions or images of, products or services (or related coupons and discounts) on or through the Services our Output are not endorsements of such products or services and such products or services may be available by third parties.  Ekoz does not recommend or endorse any specific products, services, procedures, opinions, or other information that may be mentioned on the Services or Output.

7.              EKOZ IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THIRD-PARTY CONTENT

The Services or Output may contain links to third-party websites. Ekoz is not responsible for the content of linked third-party sites, sites framed within the Services or Output, third-party sites provided as search results, or third-party advertisements, and does not make any representations or warranties regarding the content or accuracy of any such content.

Additionally, the Services may work with third-party providers to publish Output, including advertisements and other creative content. You acknowledge and agree that Ekoz may share Content and information with such third-party providers in the performance of the Services.

Your use of third-party websites (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by using the Services to work with third-party websites or providers to publish Output on your behalf) is at your own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for such sites. You remain solely responsible for compliance with all third-party providers’ terms and conditions.

12.           FEES AND PAYMENTS

Fees.

Advertiser Users will pay a fee for on any ad placement, whether Output or traditional host-read or programmatic ads, using any or all of the Services.  The fees payable by Advertise User will be displayed in the Services. In some cases, the fee may be charged directly by us, or in other cases, one of our partners operating a demand side platform for ad placements that has been integrated with the Services (each, a “DSP Partner”).  The net amount after fees (including but not limited to our then current fees) (the “Net Payment”) shall then be paid to the provider of the supply side or hosting platform (each, a “SSP Partner”) or directly to the Host Users, and in either case, the party making such payment will be either us or the DSP Partner depending on which charged the Advertiser User.   If the DSP Partner charges the Advertiser User the applicable fees for the ad placement, each Advertiser User and Host User acknowledges and agrees that we have no further obligations with respect to ensuring proper payment to the SSP Partner, Host User or any other parties, and accordingly each Advertiser User and Host User will hold us harmless and hereby releases us from any claims or liabilities related to same. In the event that we make the net payment to the applicable=le SSP Partner, each Advertiser User and Host User acknowledge and agree that the SSP Partner is solely responsible to ensure proper and timely payment to the applicable Host User based on their applicable agreement with the Host User, and in such case, each Advertiser User and Host User will hold us harmless and hereby releases us from any claims or liabilities related to any failure by the SSP Partner to ensure such proper and timely payment. You authorize us to charge the payment method you have on file with us each time you would use us fees pursuant to these Terms. We may suspend or refuse to provide Services if we are not timely paid.

Changes. We may change the applicable fees from time to time. Any fee adjustment will take effect on the next ad placement.

Future Functionality. Your purchases are not contingent on the delivery of any future functionality or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by us regarding future functionality or features.

13.           LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY OF EKOZ AND ITS LICENSORS

NEITHER WE NOR ANY OF OUR AFFILIATES OR LICENSORS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, OR DATA OR OTHER LOSSES, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED ​​THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SERVICE THAT GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE 3 MONTHS BEFORE THE LIABILITY AROSE OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100). THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION APPLY ONLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Some countries and states do not allow the disclaimer of certain warranties or the limitation of certain damages, so some or all of the terms above may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights. In that case, these Terms only limit our responsibilities to the maximum extent permissible in your country of residence.

You acknowledge and agree that the limitations set forth above are fundamental elements of these Terms, and the Services would not be provided to you absent such limitations.

14.           DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY

OUR SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, WE AND OUR AFFILIATES AND LICENSORS MAKE NO WARRANTIES (EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES, AND DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF ANY COURSE OF DEALING OR TRADE USAGE. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ACCURATE OR ERROR FREE, OR THAT ANY CONTENT WILL BE SECURE OR NOT LOST OR ALTERED.

15.           TERMINATION AND SUSPENSION

·                You breached these Terms.

·                We must do so to comply with the law.

·                Your use of our Services could cause risk or harm to Ekoz, our users, or anyone else.

16.           INDEMNITY

If you are a business or organization, to the extent permitted by law, you will indemnify and hold harmless us, our affiliates, and our personnel, from and against any costs, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) from third party claims arising out of or relating to your use of the Services and Content or any violation of these Terms. You may not settle any such third party claims without our written consent.

17.           DISPUTE RESOLUTION

YOU AND EKOZ AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER PROVISIONS:

MANDATORY ARBITRATION. You and Ekoz agree to resolve any claims arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Services, regardless of when the claim arose, even if it was before these Terms existed (a “Dispute”), through final and binding arbitration. You may opt out of arbitration within 30 days of account creation or of any updates to these arbitration terms within 30 days after the update has taken effect by sending an email to notices@thedigitent.com. If you opt out of an update, the last set of agreed upon arbitration terms will apply. 

Informal Dispute Resolution. We would like to understand and try to address your concerns prior to formal legal action. Before either of us files a claim against the other, we both agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally. You agree to do so by sending an email to notices@thedigitent.com. We will do so by sending you notice to the email address associated with your account. If we are unable to resolve a Dispute within 60 days, either of us has the right to initiate arbitration. We also both agree to attend an individual settlement conference if either party requests one during this time. Any statute of limitations will be tolled during this informal resolution process.

Arbitration Forum. If we are unable to resolve the Dispute, either of us may commence arbitration with National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”) under its Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures and/or Supplemental Rules for Mass Arbitration Filings, as applicable (available here). Ekoz will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous. The activities described in these Terms involve interstate commerce and the Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration terms and any arbitration. 

Arbitration Procedures. The arbitration will be conducted by videoconference if possible, but if the arbitrator determines a hearing should be conducted in person, the location will be mutually agreed upon, in the county where you reside, or as determined by the arbitrator, unless the batch arbitration process applies. The arbitration will be conducted by a sole arbitrator. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Georgia. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, except the state or federal courts of Fulton County, Georgia have the authority to determine any Dispute about enforceability, validity of the class action waiver, or requests for public injunctive relief, as set out below. Any settlement offer amounts will not be disclosed to the arbitrator by either party until after the arbitrator determines the final award, if any. The arbitrator has the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any Dispute.

Exceptions. This section does not require informal dispute resolution or arbitration of the following claims: (i) individual claims brought in small claims court; and (ii) injunctive or other equitable relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or intellectual property infringement or misappropriation.

CLASS AND JURY TRIAL WAIVERS. You and Ekoz agree that Disputes must be brought on an individual basis only, and may not be brought as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Class arbitrations, class actions, and representative actions are prohibited. Only individual relief is available. The parties agree to sever and litigate in court any request for public injunctive relief after completing arbitration for the underlying claim and all other claims. This does not prevent either party from participating in a class-wide settlement. You and Ekoz knowingly and irrevocably waive any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim. 

Batch Arbitration. If 25 or more claimants represented by the same or similar counsel file demands for arbitration raising substantially similar Disputes within 90 days of each other, then you and Ekoz agree that NAM will administer them in batches of up to 50 claimants each (“Batch”), unless there are less than 50 claimants in total or after batching, which will comprise a single Batch. NAM will administer each Batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one arbitrator, one set of arbitration fees, and one hearing held by videoconference or in a location decided by the arbitrator for each Batch. If any part of this section is found to be invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claimant or Batch, it will be severed and arbitrated in individual proceedings.  

Severability. If any part of these arbitration terms is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the remainder will remain in effect, except that if a finding of partial illegality or unenforceability would allow class arbitration, class action, or representative action, this entire dispute resolution section will be unenforceable in its entirety.

No Third-Party Beneficiaries. There are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms, including your affiliates and Authorized Users.

Delay in Enforcing These Terms. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
