Red Bicycle – Terms of Use
THIS TERMS OF USE AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) constitutes a legally binding agreement by and between Red Bicycle, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the state of Florida (“Red Bicycle”) and the client, whether personally or on behalf of an entity (“Client”), with regard to access and use of Red Bicycle’s website: https://www.redbicycle.com/ (the “Website”) and any other media form, channel, mobile website or mobile application related, linked or otherwise connected thereto. Failure to agree and adhere to all of the terms, conditions and obligations contained herein results in the express prohibition of the Client’s use of the Website, and the Client is ordered to discontinue use immediately. Thereafter the relationship between Client and Red Bicycle shall cease and be of no further force and effect between the parties, except that any obligation of Client to pay Red Bicycle for services rendered shall remain and continue to be an ongoing obligation owed by Client to Red Bicycle.
1. Intellectual Property Rights
Unless otherwise indicated, this Website is the property of Red Bicycle and all source code, databases, functionality, software, website designs, audio, video, text, photographs and graphics of any nature and regardless of format (herein, collectively or individually, the “Content”) and the trademarks, service marks, and logos contained there (the “Marks”) are owned and controlled by Red Bicycle and are protected by copyright and trademark laws and any other applicable intellectual property law or regulation of the United States, foreign jurisdictions and international conventions. The Content and Marks are provided “As-Is” for your information and personal use only. Except as expressly provided herein, no part of the Website and no Content may be copied, reproduced, aggregated, republished, uploaded, posted, displayed, encoded, translated, transmitted, distributed, sold, licensed, or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose whatsoever, without Red Bicycle’s express prior written permission. Red Bicycle reserves all rights in the Website, Content and Marks.
2. Ownership of Materials
Notwithstanding Red Bicycle’s ownership of Submissions, all design and original source files created on Client’s behalf (“Projects”) belong to Client, and Client shall be the sole owner of the copyright for all Projects. In the event that any operation of law would cause Red Bicycle to become the owner of a Project, in whole or in part, rather than Client, Red Bicycle irrevocably and perpetually assigns its entire interest in the Project to Client, without limitation. Client warrants that any and all materials provided to Red Bicycle as examples or as material to be incorporated into a project during the design process are owned by Client and do not infringe on or misappropriate any third party’s rights, including, but not limited to, all intellectual property rights and any right of publicity. Red Bicycle always reserves the right to share the Client’s design work publicly (social media, website, etc.) unless agreed upon as stated in section 18 of this document.
3. Third-Party Fonts
In the event that any Project incorporates fonts that are not owned by Red Bicycle and require a commercial license in order for Client to legally reproduce, distribute, or publicly display the Project (“Third-Party Font(s)”), Red Bicycle will inform Client in writing that one or more Third-Party Fonts have been incorporated into the Project and that Client will need to purchase one or more licenses for the Third-Party Fonts from the rights-holder(s) of said Third Party Fonts in order to legally reproduce, distribute, or publicly display the Project. Said notice will include information sufficient for Client to identify which licenses are required and who to contact in order to purchase said licenses. So long as Red Bicycle has informed Client of the incorporation of Third-Party Fonts as described above, Client assumes all responsibility for any consequences as a result of a failure by Client to purchase one or more licenses for any Third-Party Fonts incorporated into a Project.
