Your commitments to RiverBien and our community

The permissions you give us

  1. We need certain permissions from you to provide our services:
      1. Permission to use content you create and share on social media: Some content that you share or upload, such as photos or videos, may be protected by intellectual property laws.
      2. You own the intellectual property rights (things like copyright or trademarks) in any such content that you create and share on social media you use such as Facebook. Nothing in these Terms takes away the rights you have to your own content. You are free to share your content with anyone else, wherever you want.
      3. However, to provide our services we need you to give us some legal permissions (known as a ‘license’) to use this content. This is solely for the purposes of providing and improving our Products and services as described in Section 1 above.
      4. Specifically, when you share, post, or upload content on social media that is covered by intellectual property rights on or in connection with our Products, you grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, and worldwide license to host, use, distribute, modify, run, copy, publicly perform or display, translate, and create derivative works of your content. This means, for example, that if you share a photo on social media, you give us permission to store, copy, and share it with such as RiverBien platforms, service providers that support our service or other RiverBien Products you use. This license will end when you inform us to delete content from our systems.
  2. Permission to use your name, profile picture, and logo: You give us permission to use your name and profile picture and logo that you provided on social media on platforms of RiverBien. 

Limits on using our intellectual property

If you use content covered by intellectual property rights that we have and make available in our Products (for example, words, sentences, images, designs, videos, or sounds we provide on RiverBien), we retain all rights to that content (but not yours). You can only use our copyrights or trademarks (or any similar marks) with our prior written permission. You must obtain our written to modify, create derivative works of, decompile, or otherwise attempt to extract source code from us.

Additional provisions

Updating our Terms

We work constantly to improve our services and develop new features to make our Products better for you and our community. As a result, we may need to update these Terms from time to time to accurately reflect our services and practices. Unless otherwise required by law, we will notify you before we make changes to these Terms and give you an opportunity to review them before they go into effect. Once any updated Terms are in effect, you will be bound by them if you continue to use our Products.

We hope that you will continue using our Products, but if you do not agree to our updated Terms and no longer want to be a part of the RiverBien community, you can submit a written request to delete your account at any time.

Limits on liability

We work hard to provide the best Products we can and to specify clear guidelines for everyone who uses them. Our Products, however, are provided “as is,” and we make no guarantees that they always will be safe, secure, or error-free, or that they will function without disruptions, delays, or imperfections. To the extent permitted by law, we also DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not control or direct what people and others do or say, and we are not responsible for their actions or conduct (whether online or offline) or any content they share (including offensive, inappropriate, obscene, unlawful, and other objectionable content).

We cannot predict when issues might arise with our Products. Accordingly, our liability shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and under no circumstance will we be liable to you for any lost profits, revenues, information, or data, or consequential, special, indirect, exemplary, punitive, or incidental damages arising out of or related to these Terms or the RiverBien Products, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Our aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the RiverBien Products will not exceed the greater of $50.

Disputes

We try to provide clear rules so that we can limit or hopefully avoid disputes between you and us. If a dispute does arise, however, it’s useful to know up front where it can be resolved and what laws will apply.

For any claim, cause of action, or dispute you have against us that arises out of or relates to these Terms or the RiverBien Products (“claim”), you agree that it will be resolved exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. You also agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim, and that the laws of the State of California will govern these Terms and any claim, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

Other

    1. These Terms make up the entire agreement between you and RiverBien, LLC. regarding your use of our Products. They supersede any prior agreements.
    2. If any portion of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining portion will remain in full force and effect. If we fail to enforce any of these Terms, it will not be considered a waiver. Any amendment to or waiver of these Terms must be made in writing and signed by us.
    3. You will not transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else without our consent.
    4. These Terms do not confer any third-party beneficiary rights. All of our rights and obligations under these Terms are freely assignable by us in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or by operation of law or otherwise.
    5. We always appreciate your feedback and other suggestions about our products and services. But you should know that we may use them without any restriction or obligation to compensate you, and we are under no obligation to keep them confidential.
    6. We reserve all rights not expressly granted to you.
