6. Rights You Grant Us

Certain features of the Service may permit users to generate or post content, including messages, reviews, video, maps, models, folders, data, text, photographs, images, and data gathered by a drone or device (“User Content”). You retain ownership of any intellectual property rights that you hold in such User Content. In short, what belongs to you stays yours. 4 | To provide our Service, we do require a license to your User Content, so that we can store your data on our servers, process it and transmit it to you: when you upload, submit, store, send or receive content to or through our Services, you hereby grant to Airobot (and those we work with) a non-exclusive, worldwide license to use, store, reproduce, process, modify, publish, transmit, display, and distribute your User Content. The rights you grant in this license are for the limited purpose of operating and improving our Services, and to develop new products and services. This license continues even if you stop using our Services.

Why do we need these rights? The following situations are a few examples of where we would need these rights:

• In order to receive your uploaded images, we need the right to store and transmit the data.
• We need the rights to store, transmit, process, modify the user content (images) in order to turn your images into maps and 3D models.
• If you would like to see the resulting maps/models and share them with people you have selected using Airobot, we need the rights to transmit, display and distribute your user content.

Again – you own the Intellectual Property of the data, that means we can’t share or distribute this data without your permission. But we need these rights to provide the service.

7. User Generated Content

You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of posting or publishing User Content. You shall, at your sole cost and expense, obtain and maintain in effect all permits, licenses and other consents necessary to conduct your respective activities hereunder.

Furthermore, by posting and publishing User Content, you represent, and warrant that:

• you obtained all export permits required in relation to the transfer to or input in the Service of User Content
• you are the creator and owner of, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and to authorize Airobot and users of the Service to use and distribute your User Content; and your User Content,
• the use thereof as contemplated herein, does not and will not: (i) infringe any third-party right, including any intellectual property, privacy or proprietary right; or (ii) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person.

7.1 User Content Disclaimer

We are under no obligation to edit or control User Content that you or other users post or publish and will not be in any way responsible or liable for User Content. Airobot may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User Content that in our sole judgment violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable. You agree to waive, and hereby do waive, any legal or equitable rights or remedies you have or may have against Airobot with respect to User Content.

There will be no refunds or credits for partial months or years of service, upgrade/downgrade refunds, or refunds for months without use with an open account. In order to treat everyone equally, no exceptions will be made.

10.1 Fees

During the Contract Term (or Evaluation Term where applicable), you will be charged fees for Users and any applicable Add-On Features or Activity-Based Features (hereafter ‘Fees’). Except as otherwise specified herein or in an order form: (a) Fees are quoted and payable in Euros; (b) Fees are based on Services purchased and not actual usage; (c) your obligation to pay all Fees is non- cancellable, and Fees paid are non-refundable.

10.2 Payment Terms

Fees must be paid by credit card or by other payment type specified in the applicable order form. If you are making payments of Fees via credit card, you agree to provide accurate payment information and hereby authorize Airobot to charge such credit card for all Fees set forth in an applicable order form for the Contract Term (and any renewal thereof). For payment of Fees by any method other than credit card (for example, wire transfer), beginning on the start date set forth in an order form, Airobot shall invoice you for Fees in accordance with the payment frequency stated in the applicable order form.

You shall pay Fees in accordance with the order form. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable order form, all payments for which invoices are delivered are due within thirty (30) days after the date of the invoice. If Airobot has not received payment of Fees by the applicable due date, then Airobot may assess a late fee of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month, or the maximum rate permitted by law, whichever is lower, from the date such payment was due until the date paid.

If you have chosen to pay Fees via credit card and the credit card is charged back to Airobot or if any Fees invoiced to you are not paid within thirty (30) days of the invoice date, Airobot may: (i) with respect to chargebacks, cease charging your credit card and invoice you for the amount charged back and any future Fees; (ii) accelerate the payment of any Fees payable; (iii) immediately suspend your access to the Services until payment is made; and/or (iv) immediately terminate the applicable order form for which Fees were due and/or terminate the agreement with you.

10.3 Taxes

You are responsible for paying, and will pay, all applicable taxes, and will indemnify and hold Airobot harmless from any costs associated with the collection or withholding thereof, including penalties and interest. Unless otherwise stated in an order form, the Fees listed on an order form are not inclusive of any applicable taxes. For clarity, your invoices will include Fees and sales taxes. If Airobot has the legal obligation to pay or collect taxes for which you are responsible under this Section 10.3, the appropriate amount shall be invoiced to you and paid by you unless you provide Airobot with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority.
