TERMS OF SERVICE
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS OF SERVICE BEFORE SUBMITTING YOUR ORDER TO CUTOUTBACKGROUND.COM (“CUTOUTBACKGROUND”). THESE TERMS OF SERVICE ALONG WITH ALL RULES AND POLICIES RELATING TO ’S SERVICES AS STATED ON CUTOUTBACKGROUND WEBSITE, INCLUDING CUTOUTBACKGROUND PRIVACY POLICY, (COLLECTIVELY, THE “AGREEMENT”) WILL PROVIDE YOU WITH INFORMATION ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT FROM CUTOUTBACKGROUND SERVICES AND FORMS A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN US. YOUR USE OF CUTOUTBACKGROUND SERVICES CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT.
1. Images
For the best results, please submit images that meet Cutoutbackground guidelines for resolution and file format. Cutoutbackground works hard to make sure the edited images it returns to You are the quality our customers have come to expect from Cutoutbackground. The returned image will be deemed accepted by You upon receipt unless within seven (7) days You contact Cutoutbackground though Your account page on Cutoutbackground website and detail an error by Cutoutbackground with respect to the image. Cutoutbackground is committed to customer satisfaction and will work with You to correct any Cutoutbackground error as determined in Cutoutbackground sole discretion, including but not limited to re-performing its services to correct such an error. You will review any corrected image and accept or reject the same in accordance with this Section 1 (“Images”). This process shall repeat itself until the returned image is deemed accepted. Cutoutbackground deletes from its system all images approximately thirty (30) days after their respective acceptance. Cutoutbackground is not responsible for the quality of returned images if the image You originally submitted does not meet Cutoutbackground then-current guidelines.
2. Delivery
Cutoutbackground returns the images to You via a public web address (e.g., URL). Although Cutoutbackground utilizes means to make Your edited image available only to You, there are inherent security limitations in a public web address which Cutoutbackground cannot and will not rectify and for which Cutoutbackground will not be liable. You are able to retrieve your edited images by downloading them from the Cutoutbackground website, and in addition, Cutoutbackground may permit retrieval through an FTP server, API, or another mechanism. Cutoutbackground offers different service pricing based on different requested delivery dates. Cutoutbackground prioritizes its orders based on requested delivery dates and recognizes that Cutoutbackground will have satisfied and returning customers if it meets the requested delivery dates. Cutoutbackground will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver Your image within the time frame requested, but Cutoutbackground does not guarantee that an order will meet its requested delivery date. If the actual date Cutoutbackground returns Your edited image is in a different delivery tier from the price You paid (e.g., You paid for 24-hour service but Cutoutbackground returned the image within 72 hours), You may contact Cutoutbackground through your account page, detail the date ordered, the requested delivery date and the date actually delivered, and Cutoutbackground will refund any difference as if You had requested the delivery date in which Cutoutbackground actually delivered the edited image. In rare instances, particularly large orders may surpass Cutoutbackground processing capacity for a requested delivery date, in which case Cutoutbackground will contact You to determine how best to restructure Your order.
3. Payment
The price of the service ordered shall be set forth in the Cutoutbackground price list then in effect when Cutoutbackground accepts Your order. Cutoutbackground reserves the right to change its price list without prior notice. All payments shall be made in United States Dollars. Cutoutbackground will process your payment upon submission of Your order and will accept Your order upon verified payment. Cutoutbackground may consider extending a line of credit to large volume, repeat customers on a case by case basis, in which circumstance Cutoutbackground will invoice such customers on a monthly basis. You are responsible for paying any applicable taxes, duties, or tariffs relating to your order, except taxes on Cutoutbackground income. Notwithstanding the payment terms, all other terms of this Agreement apply to any free trial. Free trials are limited to product images only (e.g., no pet, person, logo, or landscape images) and machine-like or automated submissions (e.g., multiple free trial requests from the same IP address) will not be accepted.
4. Rights to Use Image
You are solely responsible for the images you submit. Cutoutbackground reviews submissions for inappropriate material and reserves the right in its sole discretion to reject any image for any reason or no reason; however, Cutoutbackground acceptance of an image for processing should not be construed as a determination of Your rights to use the image. By submitting an image to Cutoutbackground, You represent and warrant that You have the legal authority to enter into this Agreement, that you have the right to use any credit card(s) or other payment means used to initiate any transaction, that any images You submit to Cutoutbackground do not contain any materials (such as malicious software code or viruses) that may harm Cutoutbackground or its subcontractors’ property, and You hereby grant Cutoutbackground a non-exclusive, worldwide, transferable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple tiers of sublicenses including but not limited to Cutoutbackground subcontractors) perpetual, irrevocable license under all intellectual property rights throughout the world (including but not limited to copyrights, trademarks, trade secret, moral, publicity and privacy rights) to reproduce, modify, edit, make derivate works from, distribute (through multiple tiers), publicly perform and display and otherwise use the image as reasonably necessary for Cutoutbackground and its subcontractors to perform the services You requested hereunder. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Cutoutbackground, its subcontractors, licensors and affiliates and their directors, officers, shareholders, employees, and agents from any and all claims, liabilities, or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees) that arise directly or indirectly from Your breach of this Agreement.
