1.

Overview. The Services allow Subscriber to generate AI Content in the selected Style, and based on the provided Subscriber Data, in exchange for Generation Tokens. Laetro may offer certain Subscribers access to features of the Services that enable Subscriber to list its Custom Styles on the Style Gallery within the Service (“Style Gallery”). If Subscriber accesses or uses the Services to develop a Custom Style for listing on the Style Gallery or otherwise uses such features to list a Custom Style on the Style Gallery, Subscriber will be deemed a “Style Maker”, and agrees to the terms of the Laetro AI Style Maker Addendum, available at https://www.laetro.com/terms-stylemaker (“Style Maker Addendum”), which apply to Subscriber’s use of the Services in addition to the terms of this Agreement.


2.

Services. 


2.1

Permitted Use. During the Term, subject to Subscriber’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement, Subscriber may access and use the Services only for its internal business purposes in accordance with the Documentation and this Agreement. 


2.2

Colleagues. Only Subscriber’s Colleagues, using the mechanisms designated by Laetro (“Log-in Credentials”), may access and use the Services. Each Subscriber must keep its Log-in Credentials confidential and not share them with anyone else. Subscriber is responsible for its Colleagues’ compliance with this Agreement and all actions taken through their Log-in Credentials (excluding misuse of the Log-in Credentials caused by Laetro’s breach of this Agreement). Subscriber will promptly notify Laetro if it becomes aware of any compromise of any Log-in Credentials. Laetro may Process Log-in Credentials in connection with Laetro’s provision of the Services or for Laetro’s internal business purposes. 


2.3

Restrictions. Subscriber will not (and will not permit anyone else to) do any of the following: (a) provide access to, distribute, sell, or sublicense a Service to a third party (other than Subscriber’s Colleagues); (b) use the Service on behalf of third parties; (c) use a Service to develop a similar or competing product or service; (d) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or seek to access the source code or non-public APIs to a Service, except to the extent expressly permitted by Law (and then only with prior notice to Laetro); (e) modify or create derivative works of a Service or copy any element of a Service; (f) remove or obscure any proprietary notices in a Service; (g) publish benchmarks or performance information about a Service; (h) interfere with the operation of a Service, circumvent any access restrictions, or conduct any security or vulnerability test of a Service; (i) transmit any viruses or other harmful materials to a Service; (j) take any action that risks harm to others or to the security, availability, or integrity of a Service; (k) access or use a Service in a manner that violates any Law, privacy rights, (l) represent that the AI Content is human generated, or (m) use the Services or AI Content to impersonate a third party or violate their rights of publicity without their consent. Additionally, Subscriber must not use a Service with Prohibited Data or for High Risk Activities. Subscriber acknowledges that the Services are not intended to meet any legal obligations for these uses, including HIPAA requirements, and that Laetro is not a Business Associate as defined under HIPAA. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, Laetro has no liability for Prohibited Data or use of a Service for High Risk Activities.

Subscriber’s subscription to the Services includes a monthly allotment of free Generation Tokens (“Free Generation Tokens”). Free Generation Tokens must be used within the month they are issued and will expire at the end of such month. Subscriber may purchase additional Generation Tokens (“Paid Generation Tokens”). Paid Generation Tokens may be used at any time during the Term.


2.5

By default, Custom Styles will be accessible only by Subscriber, unless Subscriber chooses to make Custom Styles available for use by its Colleagues.

2.6

AI Content

  1. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement, Subscriber may freely use the AI Content. Subscriber acknowledges that due to the nature of AI Features, outputs of AI Features may not be unique, and may generate content that is similar to Subscriber’s AI Content.
  2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber will not, and will not permit any third party to, directly or indirectly use the AI Content (or any portion thereof) to train an artificial intelligence model of any kind. Breach of this Section 2.6(b) may cause substantial harm to Laetro for which damages alone are an insufficient remedy, and Laetro may seek appropriate equitable relief, in addition to other available remedies, for breach or threatened breach of Section 2.6(b). 
  3. The Service may permit Subscriber to submit AI Content to Laetro to request further modifications. Laetro is under no obligation to accept such request. Any such services will be subject to a separate written agreement between Subscriber and Laetro.

From time to time, Laetro, in its sole discretion, may make available Upgrades under additional or different terms. Nothing in this Agreement obligates Laetro to make Upgrades available to Subscriber as part of the Services.


5.

Data and Content.


5.1

Use of Subscriber Data, AI Content, and Custom Styles. Subscriber grants Laetro the non-exclusive, worldwide, sublicensable right to use, copy, store, disclose, transmit, transfer, publicly display, modify, and create derivative works from Subscriber Data, Custom Styles, and AI Content only as necessary to: (a) provide any Services and Support; (b) derive or generate Usage Data; (c) create and compile Aggregated Data; and (d) as otherwise required by Laws or as agreed to in writing between the parties. 


5.2

Data Protection Laws.

Where practicable, Laetro will use reasonable efforts to provide Subscriber with prior notice of the suspension (email sufficing). If the issue that led to the suspension is resolved, Laetro will restore Subscriber’s access to the Service(s).


8.

Third-Party Platforms. Use of Third-Party Platforms is subject to Subscriber’s agreement with the relevant provider and not this Agreement. Laetro does not control and has no liability for Third-Party Platforms, including their security, functionality, operation, availability, or interoperability with the Services or how the Third-Party Platforms or their providers use Subscriber Data. By enabling a Third-Party Platform to interact with the Services, Subscriber authorizes Laetro to access and exchange Subscriber Data with such Third-Party Platform on Subscriber’s behalf.

If Subscriber elects to pay by credit card, Subscriber hereby authorizes Laetro and its third-party payment processors to charge Fees to Subscriber’s credit card account when due.

10.

Warranties and Disclaimers.


10.1

Limited Warranty. Laetro warrants to Subscriber that the Services will perform materially as described in its Documentation and Laetro will not materially decrease the overall functionality of the Service (“Limited Warranty”).


10.2

Warranty Remedy. If Laetro breaches the Limited Warranty and Subscriber makes a reasonably detailed warranty claim in the manner required by Laetro within 30 days of discovering a breach of the Limited Warranty, then Laetro will use reasonable efforts to correct the non-conformity. If Laetro cannot do so within 30 days of receipt of Subscriber’s warranty claim, either party may terminate this Agreement as it relates to the non-conforming Service. Laetro will then refund to Subscriber any pre-paid, unused Fees for the Service attributable to the terminated portion of the applicable Term and for any unused Paid Generation Tokens, in each case, less any processing fees or charges incurred by Laetro in respect of such Fees or refund. This Section sets forth Subscriber’s exclusive remedy and Laetro’s entire liability for breach of the Limited Warranty. These warranties do not apply to: (a) issues caused by Subscriber’s or Colleague’s misuse of or unauthorized modifications to the applicable Service; (b) issues in or caused by Third-Party Platforms or other third-party systems; (c) use of the applicable Service other than according to the Documentation; or (d) Trials and Betas or other free or evaluation use.

Laetro does not warrant that Subscriber’s use of the Services will be uninterrupted or error-free, that Laetro will review Subscriber Data for accuracy, or that it will maintain Subscriber Data without loss. Laetro is not liable for delays, failures, or problems inherent in use of the Internet and electronic communications or other systems outside Laetro’s control. Subscriber may have other statutory rights, but any statutorily required warranties will be limited to the shortest legally permitted period.


11.

Term and Termination.


11.1

Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) starts on Acceptance and continues for the period indicated in the Order or if none, then one month (the “Initial Term”). The Agreement will automatically renew for successive periods equal in length to the Initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”), unless either party notifies the other of its intent not to renew prior to expiration of the then-current Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Subscriber is a Style Maker, and Laetro elects to provide limited access to features of the Services as contemplated under the Style Maker Addendum (“Limited Access”), this Agreement, as modified by the Style Maker Addendum, will apply and continue to apply with respect to Subscriber’s use of the Services as a Style Maker until such access is terminated in accordance with the Style Maker Addendum.

Laetro may terminate this Agreement without cause at any time upon written notice to Subscriber, in which case Laetro will refund to Subscriber any pre-paid, unused Fees for the Service attributable to the terminated portion of the applicable Term and for any unused Paid Generation Tokens, in each case, less any processing fees or charges incurred by Laetro in respect of such Fees or refund.

Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, as between the parties, Subscriber retains all intellectual property rights and other rights in Subscriber Data provided to Laetro.

If Subscriber provides Laetro with feedback or suggestions regarding the Services or other Laetro offerings, Laetro may use the feedback or suggestions without restriction or obligation. 


13.

Limitations of Liability.


13.1

Consequential Damages Waiver. Except for Excluded Claims (as defined below) neither party (nor its suppliers or licensors) will have any liability arising out of or related to this Agreement for any loss of use, lost data, lost profits, failure of security mechanisms, interruption of business, or any indirect, special, incidental, reliance, or consequential damages of any kind, even if informed of their possibility in advance. 


13.2

Liability Cap. Except for Excluded Claims, each party’s (and its suppliers’ and licensor’s) entire liability arising out of or related to this Agreement will not exceed in aggregate the amounts paid or payable by Subscriber to Laetro pursuant to this Agreement during the 12 months prior to the date on which the applicable claim giving rise to the liability arose under this Agreement.


13.3

Excluded Claims. “Excluded Claims” means: (a) Subscriber’s breach of Sections 2.3 (Restrictions), 2.6(b) (AI Content), or 6 (Subscriber Obligations); (b) either party’s breach of Section 15 (Confidentiality) (but excluding claims relating to Subscriber Data); or (c) amounts payable to third parties under the indemnifying party’s obligations in Section 14 (Indemnification). 


13.4

Nature of Claims and Failure of Essential Purpose. The waivers and limitations in this Section 13.4 apply regardless of the form of action, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise and will survive and apply even if any limited remedy in this Agreement fails of its essential purpose.


14.

Indemnification.


14.1

Indemnification by Laetro. Laetro will defend Subscriber from and against any third-party claim to the extent alleging that the Service, when used by Subscriber as permitted under the applicable Order infringes or misappropriates a third-party’s U.S. patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret, and will indemnify and hold harmless Subscriber against any damages and costs awarded against Subscriber (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) or agreed in a settlement by Laetro resulting from the claim.


14.2

Indemnification by Subscriber. Subscriber will defend Laetro from and against any third-party claim to the extent resulting from Subscriber Data, Custom Styles or Subscriber’s breach or alleged breach of Section 6 (Subscriber Obligations), and will indemnify and hold harmless Laetro against any damages and costs awarded against Laetro (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) or agreed in a settlement by Subscriber resulting from the claim.


14.3

Procedures. The indemnifying party’s obligations in this Section 14 are subject to it receiving: (a) prompt written notice of the claim; (b) the exclusive right to control and direct the investigation, defense, and settlement of the claim; and (c) all reasonably necessary cooperation of the indemnified party, at the indemnifying party’s expense for reasonable out-of-pocket costs. The indemnifying party may not settle any claim without the indemnified party’s prior consent if settlement would require the indemnified party to admit fault or take or refrain from taking any action (other than relating to use of the Services, when Laetro is the indemnifying party). The indemnified party may participate in a claim with its own counsel at its own expense.


14.4

Mitigation. In response to an actual or potential infringement or misappropriation claim or otherwise relating to violation of intellectual property rights, if required by settlement or injunction or as Laetro determines necessary to avoid material liability, Laetro may at its option: (a) procure rights for Subscriber’s continued use of the applicable Service; (b) replace or modify the allegedly infringing portion of the applicable Service to avoid infringement or misappropriation without reducing the Service’s overall functionality; or (c) terminate the Agreement and refund to Subscriber any pre-paid, unused fees for the terminated portion of the Term and for any unused Paid Generation Tokens, in each case, less any processing fees or charges incurred by Laetro in respect of such Fees or refund.

14.5

Exclusive Remedy. This Section 14 sets out Subscriber’s exclusive remedy and Laetro’s entire liability regarding infringement or misappropriation of third-party intellectual property rights.


15.

Confidentiality. 


15.1

Definition. “Confidential Information” means information disclosed to the receiving party (“Recipient”) under this Agreement that is designated by the disclosing party (“Discloser”) as proprietary or confidential or that should be reasonably understood to be proprietary or confidential due to its nature and the circumstances of its disclosure. Laetro’s Confidential Information includes the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any technical or performance information about the Services. 


15.2

Obligations. As Recipient, each party will: (a) hold Confidential Information in confidence and not disclose it to third parties except as permitted in this Agreement, including Section 5.1 (Use of Subscriber Data); and (b) only use Confidential Information to fulfill its obligations and exercise its rights in this Agreement. At Discloser’s request, Recipient will delete all Confidential Information, except, in the case where Laetro is the Recipient, Laetro may retain the Subscriber’s Confidential Information to the extent required to continue to provide the Services. Recipient may disclose Confidential Information to its employees, agents, contractors, and other representatives having a legitimate need to know (including, for Laetro, the subcontractors referenced in Section 19.8), provided it remains responsible for their compliance with this Section 15 and they are bound to confidentiality obligations no less protective than this Section 15.


15.3

Exclusions. These confidentiality obligations do not apply to information that Recipient can document: (a) is or becomes public knowledge through no fault of the receiving party; (b) it rightfully knew or possessed prior to receipt under this Agreement; (c) it rightfully received from a third party without breach of confidentiality obligations; or (d) it independently developed without using Confidential Information. 


15.4

Remedies. Unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information may cause substantial harm for which damages alone are an insufficient remedy. Each party may seek appropriate equitable relief, in addition to other available remedies, for breach or threatened breach of this Section 15.


16.

Required Disclosures. Nothing in this Agreement prohibits either party from making disclosures, including of Subscriber Data and other Confidential Information, if required by Law, subpoena, or court order, provided (if permitted by Law) it notifies the other party in advance and cooperates in any effort to obtain confidential treatment.


17.

Trials and Betas. If Subscriber receives access to Services or features thereof on a free or trial basis or as an alpha, beta, or early access offering (“Trials and Betas”), use is permitted only for Subscriber’s internal evaluation during the period designated by Laetro (or if not designated, 30 days). Trials and Betas are optional and either party may terminate Trials and Betas at any time for any reason. Trials and Betas may be inoperable, incomplete, or include features that Laetro may never release, and their features and performance information are Laetro’s Confidential Information. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, Laetro provides no warranty, indemnity, SLA, or support for Trials and Betas, and its liability for Trials and Betas will not exceed US$50.


18.

Publicity. Neither party may publicly announce that the parties have entered into this Agreement, except with the other party’s prior consent or as required by Laws. However, Laetro may include Subscriber and its trademarks in Laetro’s Subscriber lists and promotional materials but will cease further use at Subscriber’s written request. 


19.

19.6

Waivers and Severability. Waivers must be signed by the waiving party’s authorized representative and cannot be implied from conduct.
