Terms & Conditions

Welcome to Vivid Media! It is our pleasure to provide the services described below for your personal enjoyment and entertainment in accordance with these Terms of Use (“Terms”). Please take a moment to carefully read through these Terms.

As a preliminary matter, we wanted to highlight a topic that you will read more about later. At Vivid Media, we expect that our world-class customer service team, which can be contacted through our Help Center, will be able to resolve any issues you may have as you enjoy our services. In the unlikely event that an issue between us remains unresolved, please note that THESE TERMS REQUIRE ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS. ALSO, THESE TERMS SET FORTH SPECIFIC REMEDIES AVAILABLE TO YOU. PLEASE SEE SECTIONS 11 AND 13 TO LEARN MORE.

1. Description of Service and Acceptance of Terms

(“Vivid Media,” “we,” or “us”) provides an online video service which gives users the opportunity to select from various offerings of live and on-demand programming, including television shows, movies, clips, and other content (collectively, the “Content”). Our video service, the Content, our player for viewing the Content (the “Video Player”) and any other products, features, tools, materials, or other services (including third party branded services) offered from time to time by Vivid Media through a variety of Access Points (defined below) are referred to collectively as the “Services.” The term “Access Points” refers to, collectively, the vividmedia.app website (the “Vivid Media Site”), applications, and other places where any Services are available, including websites and applications of Vivid Media third party distribution partners and other websites where users or website operators are permitted to embed or have otherwise licensed the Video Player.

Use of the Services (including access to the Content) is subject to compliance with these Terms, which incorporate by reference our Privacy Policy available at vividmedia.app/privacy (“Privacy Policy”) and any end user license agreement that might accompany the applicable Service. Therefore, by accessing or using any of the Services through any Access Point (including by visiting the Vivid Media Site or by downloading or launching the Vivid Media application), you accept and agree to these Terms.
Please note that the website addresses (i.e., URLs) included within these Terms may not function as hyperlinks on all the Access Points. To view these Terms with clickable hyperlinks, please visit the Vivid Media Site on your computer.

2. Changes to These Terms

We may need to make changes to these Terms from time to time for many reasons. For example, we may need to reflect updates in how the Services work or changes in the law. You should look at these Terms regularly, which are posted on the Vivid Media Site at vividmedia.app/terms. In addition, you can access these Terms from Vivid Media applications. If we make a material change to these Terms, we will notify you by posting a notice on the Vivid Media Site. If you are a registered user, we will also send an email to the email address you most recently provided to us prior to the material change taking effect. Therefore, it is important that you keep your account information, including email address, updated. Any material change to these Terms will be effective automatically 30 days after the revised Terms are first posted or, for users who register or otherwise provide opt-in consent during this 30-day period, at the time of registration or consent, as applicable.

3. Access and Use of the Services

3.1 Age Limitations. The Services are not intended to be used by children. If you are under the age of 18, you are not permitted to register with Vivid Media or provide your personal information to Vivid Media.

3.2 Your License. Vivid Media is pleased to grant you a non-exclusive limited license to use the Services, including accessing and viewing the Content on a streaming-only basis through the Video Player as set forth in these Terms. The periods during which you can view each piece of Content will vary based on the rights availability of such Content and the terms of your subscription.

3.3 Profiles. Vivid Media offers the option to personalize use of the Services through the creation of one or more profiles under one account. Only the account holder, and those with permission from the account holder, may create a profile.

3.4 The Content.

• Usage Rules and Limitations. You may only access and view the Content in compliance with these Terms. You may not either directly or through the use of any device, software, internet site, web-based service, or other means remove, alter, bypass, avoid, interfere with, or circumvent any copyright, trademark, or other proprietary notices marked on the Content or any digital rights management mechanism, device, or other content protection or access control measure associated with the Content including geo-filtering mechanisms. You may not either directly or through the use of any device, software, internet site, web-based service, or other means copy, record, download, stream capture, reproduce, duplicate, archive, distribute, upload, publish, modify, translate, broadcast, perform, display, sell, or transmit or retransmit the Content unless expressly permitted by the terms of your subscription or otherwise by Vivid Media in writing. You may not incorporate the Content into, or stream or retransmit the Content via, any hardware or software application or make it available via frames or in-line links unless expressly permitted by Vivid Media in writing. Furthermore, you may not create, recreate, distribute or advertise an index of any significant portion of the Content unless authorized by Vivid Media. You may not build a business utilizing the Content, whether or not for profit. The Content covered by these restrictions includes without limitation any text, graphics, layout, interface, logos, photographs, audio and video materials, and stills. In addition, you are strictly prohibited from creating derivative works or materials that otherwise are derived from or based on in any way the Content, including montages, mashups and similar videos, wallpaper, desktop themes, greeting cards, and merchandise, unless expressly permitted by Vivid Media in writing. This prohibition applies even if you intend to give away the derivative materials free of charge.
• Content Subjectivity. Content tends to elicit varying reactions among different people. You may come across Content that you find offensive, indecent, explicit or objectionable. Also, Content types, genres, categories, and descriptions are provided as suggestions to help with navigation, and Vivid Media does not guarantee that you will agree with them. You acknowledge these risks.
• Content Quality. Vivid Media uses various technologies to provide you with an optimal viewing experience. That said, quality of Content, including resolution, may be affected by the format of the Content, your location, the speed and bandwidth of your internet service, and the devices used, among other factors. HD and 4K Ultra HD availability for certain Content depends on your internet service and device capabilities. The time it takes you to begin playing Content will vary based on a number of factors, including your location, internet bandwidth, the number of devices simultaneously connecting to the same network, the Content you have selected, and the configuration of the device you are using. As a result, Vivid Media is unable to make any warranties about the Content in these respects.

3.5 The Video Player. You may not modify, enhance, remove, interfere with, or otherwise alter in any way any portion of the Video Player, its underlying technology, any digital rights management mechanism, device, or other content protection or access control measure incorporated into the Video Player. This restriction includes, without limitation, disabling, reverse engineering, modifying, interfering with or otherwise circumventing the Video Player in any manner that enables users to view the Content without: (i) displaying visibly both the Video Player and all surrounding elements (including the graphical user interface, any advertising, copyright notices, and trademarks) of the Access Point where the Video Player is located; and (ii) having full access to all functionality of the Video Player, including, without limitation, all video quality and display functionality and all interactive, elective, or click-through advertising functionality. Where Vivid Media has incorporated an embed option in connection with Content on the Services, you may embed videos using the Video Player, provided you do not embed the Video Player on any website or other location that (i) contains or hosts content that is unlawful, infringing, pornographic, obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harassing, vulgar, indecent, profane, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive, encourages criminal conduct, gives rise to civil liability, violates any law, rule, or regulation, infringes any right of any third party including intellectual property rights, or is otherwise inappropriate or objectionable to Vivid Media (in Vivid Media sole discretion), or (ii) links to infringing or unauthorized content (collectively, “Unsuitable Material”). You may not embed the Video Player into any hardware or software application, even for non-commercial purposes. Vivid Media reserves the right to prevent embedding to any website or other location that Vivid Media finds inappropriate or objectionable (as determined by Vivid Media in its sole discretion).

3.6 Compatible Devices. In order to access the Services, you will need to use a computer, mobile device, streaming media player, or other device that meets the system and compatibility requirements that we establish from time to time (each, a “Compatible Device”). Please note that Compatible Devices may vary by Service. For example, certain devices may not be capable of streaming Content from the Live TV Service but may be capable of streaming other Content. Features and functionalities that we make available through the Services may also differ by Compatible Device and the terms of your subscription. Please visit our Help Center for a current list of Compatible Devices. The number of simultaneous streams of Content that you can access, including “in-home” and “out-of-home” streams, may vary by Service and require device and account verification. “In-home” streams are those that you stream through your home internet service. “Out-of-home” streams are those that you stream through a connection to a cellular or Wi-Fi network outside of your home.

3.7 Internet Service and Data Usage. In order to access the Services, you must have a high-speed broadband, wireless or similar internet connection from an internet service provider that meets certain technical specifications. Please note that multiple simultaneous streams, as well as HD and 4K Ultra HD Content, may require higher internet bandwidth. You are responsible for any costs associated with your internet service used to access the Services. Your use of the Services may count toward your data usage, depending on the terms of your agreement with your internet service provider.

3.8 Ownership. You agree that Vivid Media retains all rights to the Services. You further agree that the Content you access and view as part of the Services is owned or controlled by Vivid Media and/or Vivid Media content programmers. The Services and the Content are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.

3.9 Your Responsibilities. In order for us to keep the Services safe and available for everyone to use, we all have to follow the same rules of the road. You and other users must use the Services for lawful, non-commercial, and appropriate purposes only. Your commitment to this principle is critical. You agree to observe the Services, Content, Video Player and embedding restrictions detailed above, and further agree that you will not use the Services in a way that:

• violates the rights of others, including patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, privacy, publicity, or other proprietary rights;
• uses technology or other means to access, index, frame or link to the Services (including the Content) that is not authorized by Vivid Media (including by removing, disabling, bypassing, or circumventing any content protection or access control mechanisms intended to prevent the unauthorized download, stream capture, linking, framing, reproduction, access to, or distribution of the Services);
• involves accessing the Services (including the Content) through any automated means, including “robots,” “spiders,” or “offline readers” (other than by individually performed searches on publicly accessible search engines for the sole purpose of, and solely to the extent necessary for, creating publicly available search indices – but not caches or archives – of the Services and excluding those search engines or indices that host, promote, or link primarily to infringing or unauthorized content);
• introduces viruses or any other computer code, files, or programs that interrupt, destroy, or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment;
• damages, disables, overburdens, impairs, or gains unauthorized access to the Services, including Vivid Media servers, computer network, or user accounts;
• removes, modifies, disables, blocks, obscures or otherwise impairs any advertising in connection with the Services (including the Content);
• uses the Services to advertise or promote services that are not expressly approved in advance in writing by Vivid Media;
• collects information in violation of Vivid Media Privacy Policy;
• encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense or give rise to civil liability;
• violates these Terms or any guidelines or policies posted by Vivid Media;
• interferes with any other party’s use and enjoyment of the Services; or
• attempts to do any of the foregoing.

If Vivid Media determines in its sole discretion that you are violating any of these Terms, we may (i) notify you, and (ii) use technical measures to block or restrict your access or use of the Services. In either case, you agree to immediately stop accessing or using in any way (or attempting to access or use) the Services, and you agree not to circumvent, avoid, or bypass such restrictions, or otherwise restore or attempt to restore such access or use.

3.10 No Spam/Unsolicited Communications. We know how annoying and upsetting it can be to receive unwanted email or instant messages from people you do not know. Therefore, you may not use the Services to harvest information about users for the purpose of sending, or to facilitate or encourage the sending of, unsolicited bulk or other communications. You understand that we may employ technical measures to prevent spam or unsolicited bulk or other communications from entering, utilizing, or remaining within our computer or communications networks. If you Post (as defined below in Section 7) or otherwise send spam, advertising, or other unsolicited communications of any kind through the Services, you acknowledge that you will have caused substantial harm to Vivid Media and that the amount of such harm would be extremely difficult to measure.

3.11 Software Downloads. In order to participate in certain Services or access certain Content, you may be notified that it is necessary to download software or other materials or agree to additional terms and conditions. Unless otherwise provided by these additional terms and conditions, they are hereby incorporated into these Terms.

3.12 Modification/Suspension/Discontinuation. We regularly make changes to the Services. The availability of the Content, as well as Access Points and Compatible Devices through which the Services are available, will change from time to time. Vivid Media reserves the right to replace or remove any Content and Access Points available to you through the Services, including specific titles and networks/channels, and to otherwise make changes in how we operate the Services. Additionally, you agree that for various reasons, such as restrictions from content programmers and other limitations or considerations from third parties, certain Content that may be available through one Access Point may not be available through another Access Point. We hope not to, but we may change, suspend, or discontinue – temporarily or permanently – some or all of the Services (including the Content and the Compatible Devices through which the Services are accessed), with respect to any or all users, at any time without notice. In our continued assessment of the Services, we may from time to time, with respect to any or all of our users, experiment with or otherwise offer certain features or other elements of the Services, including promotional features, user interfaces, plans, pricing, and advertisements. You acknowledge that Vivid Media may do so in Vivid Media sole discretion at any time without notice. You also agree that Vivid Media will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services, although if you are a Vivid Media subscriber and Vivid Media suspends or discontinues your subscription to the Services,  Vivid Media  may, in its sole discretion, provide you with a credit, refund, discount or other form of consideration (for example, we may credit additional days of service to your account) in accordance with Section 4 below. However, if Vivid Media terminates your account or suspends or discontinues your access to Services due to your violation of these Terms, then you will not be eligible for any such credit, refund, discount or other consideration.

3.13 Customer Service. If we can be of help to you, please do not hesitate to contact our customer service department by visiting our Help Center. It would be our pleasure to serve you. We aim to deliver first-class customer service, but in the unlikely event that a customer service representative provides information that is inconsistent with these Terms, please be aware that these Terms will control.

4. Subscriptions and Billing

4.1 Subscriptions. While we may offer Content from time to time for free, we charge a fee to access the Services. The Services may include different Content offerings and features, with different benefits, conditions, and limitations. You can find the specific details regarding your subscription at any time by logging in on the Vivid Media Site and viewing your account details. Because the Services are offered in multiple time zones, for consistency, a “day” for purposes of these Terms begins at 12:00 a.m. Central Standard Time and ends at 11:59 p.m. Central Standard Time of that same calendar day.

4.2 Billing. By providing a credit card or other payment method accepted by Vivid Media or our affiliate (“Payment Method”) for your subscription, you are expressly agreeing that we are authorized to charge you a periodic subscription fee on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription, any other fees for additional services you may purchase, and any applicable taxes in connection with your use of your subscription to the Payment Method. If you want to use a different Payment Method than the one you signed up to use during registration, or if there is a change in your credit card validity or expiration date, you may edit your Payment Method information by logging in on the Vivid Media Site and viewing your account details. When you provide a Payment Method to access a subscription, including in connection with a free trial offer, our system will attempt to verify the information you entered. We do this by processing an authorization hold, which is a standard practice. We do not charge you in connection with this authorization hold. If your Payment Method expires and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account, you authorize us to continue billing, and you will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.

As used in these Terms, “billing” shall indicate either a charge or debit, as applicable, against your Payment Method. The subscription fee will be billed at the beginning of your subscription or expiration of your free trial period, if any, whichever is earlier, and on each periodic renewal date thereafter unless and until you cancel your subscription, or the account or service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. To see the commencement date for your next renewal period, log in on the Vivid Media Site and view your account details.

We automatically bill your Payment Method on the calendar day corresponding to commencement of your subscription. For subscribers whose subscription starts with a free trial, billing will commence upon the expiration of the free trial. The interval of time between each payment due date shall correspond to the term of your subscription and be referred to herein as a “Billing Period.” In the event your subscription began on a day not contained in a given month, we bill your Payment Method on the last day of such month. You acknowledge that the timing of when you are billed and the amount billed each Billing Period may vary, including for example due to free trials and other promotional offers, gift card redemptions, credits applied, changes in your subscription, changes in your Payment Method, and changes in applicable taxes, and you authorize us to charge your Payment Method for the corresponding amounts.

If we offer you a promotion (e.g., a promotional price) for your subscription, the specific terms of the promotion will be disclosed during your sign-up or in other materials provided to you describing the particular promotion. In the case of promotional pricing, after your promotion ends, we will begin billing your Payment Method for your subscription at the regular price after your promotion ends unless you cancel prior to the end of your promotion or unless otherwise disclosed in communications made available to you.

Vivid Media reserves the right to change the terms of your subscription, including price, from time to time, effective as of the beginning of your next Billing Period following the date of the change. If Vivid Media changes the subscription fee or other charges for your subscription, we will give you advance notice of these changes. However, we will not be able to notify you of changes in any applicable taxes.
Very rarely, if there are special circumstances where Vivid Media determines it is appropriate (e.g., your access to the Services is unavailable for days due to technical difficulties), we may provide credits to affected subscribers. The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at Vivid Media sole and absolute discretion, and the provision of credits in one instance does not entitle anyone to credits in the future under similar or different circumstances.

4.3 Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation. Your subscription will continue in effect on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription unless and until you cancel your subscription, or the account or service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. You must cancel your subscription before your next renewal date in order to avoid the next billing. We will bill the periodic subscription fee plus any applicable taxes to the Payment Method you provide to us during registration (or to a different Payment Method if you change your account information). If you cancel your subscription, cancellation will be effective at the end of the current Billing Period – this means that you will have continued access to your subscription for the remainder of that period, but you will not receive a refund. You will also forfeit any service or referral credits upon cancellation. You can cancel your subscription by logging into your Vivid Media account and following the instructions on your account page on the Vivid Media Site or in the settings of our mobile application. If you pay for the Services through your account with a third party (e.g., Apple iTunes) and want to cancel your subscription or manage your billing, you may need to do so through your account with such third party.

4.4 Unpaid Amounts. It is important that each subscriber honor the payment obligations to which the subscriber agreed. Accordingly, we reserve the right to retry billing your Payment Method after failed attempts (e.g., if your Payment Method is rejected). We also reserve the right to pursue any amounts you fail to pay in connection with your subscription. You will remain liable for all such amounts and all costs incurred in connection with the collection of these amounts, including, without limitation, bank overdraft fees, collection agency fees, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and arbitration or court costs.

4.5 Free Trials. On occasion, we may be authorized to offer free trials to a particular Service for certain qualifying users. If we offer you a free trial, the specific terms of your free trial will be stated in the material describing the particular free trial or during your sign-up. Certain limitations may exist with respect to combining free trials with any other offers. Vivid Media reserves the right to determine eligibility for free trials. To view the specific details regarding your free trial, if any, log in on the Vivid Media Site and view your account details. Once your free trial period ends, we will begin billing your Payment Method for your periodic subscription fees (plus any applicable taxes), unless you cancel prior to the end of your free trial. For that reason, unless otherwise indicated in the free trial description, you may be asked to set up a valid Payment Method when redeeming a free trial offer. For existing subscribers who accept a free trial to a Service, at the end of the free trial, you may be charged a prorated amount for the Service to cover the period between the date the free trial ends and your next Billing Period begins. It is very important to understand that you will not receive a notice from Vivid Media that your free trial has ended and that payment for your subscription is due. If you wish to avoid charges to your Payment Method, you must cancel your subscription prior to midnight Eastern Time on the last day of your free trial period. You may cancel your subscription at any time as described in the “Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation” section of these Terms. We will continue to bill your Payment Method for your subscription on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription until you cancel, or the account or applicable Service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. To the extent subscriptions are offered in conjunction with purchases of, or payment for, third party products or services, you agree that Vivid Media will not be liable to you for any claims arising out of or related to your purchase or use of such third-party products or services. If you cancel your subscription during a free trial or while using a promotional code or other credits, cancellation may be effective immediately.

4.6 Thirty Day money back guarantee.  We offer a Thirty Day money back guarantee on physical products sold via the Vivid Media website.

4.7 Refunds and Exchanges.  Once your return is received and inspected, we will send you an email to notify you that we have received your returned item. We will also notify you of the approval of your refund. Your refund will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your credit card or original method of payment, within 1 day.  We only replace items if they are defective or damaged. If you need to exchange it for the same item, send us an email at vividmedia11@outlook.com 

5. Accounts and Registration

You are responsible for all use of your account, including use of your account by other members of your household. By allowing others to access your account or to create profiles within your account, you agree to be responsible for ensuring that they comply with these Terms, and you agree to be responsible for their activity using the Services.
All registration information you submit must be accurate and updated. Please keep your password confidential. You will not have to reveal it to any Vivid Media representative. Because you are responsible for all use of your account, including unauthorized use by any third party, please be very careful to guard the security of your password. Please notify us by email using the customer support form available from our Help Center if you suspect any unauthorized use of your account. Please also make sure to notify us if your registration information changes, in case we need to contact you.
You may find information on how to delete your Vivid Media account by logging in on the Vivid Media Site and viewing your account details. Please identify your account and provide a valid reply email address in the event we require additional information to terminate your account. Please note, if you are a subscriber, you must first cancel your subscription before you will be able to delete your account. Please see the section “Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation” above for instructions on how to cancel your subscription.

We reserve the right to immediately terminate or restrict your account or your use of the Services or access to Content at any time, without notice or liability, if Vivid Media determines in its sole discretion that you have breached these Terms, violated any law, rule, or regulation, engaged in other inappropriate conduct, or for any other business reason. We also reserve the right to terminate your account or your use of the Services or access to Content if such use places an undue burden on our networks or servers. Of course, we would prefer to avoid such termination; therefore, we may use technology to limit activities, such as the number of calls to the Vivid Media servers being made or the volume of User Material (as defined below in Section 7) being Posted, and you agree to respect these limitations and not take any steps to circumvent, avoid, or bypass them.

6. Collection and Use of Personal Information

For information about Vivid Media policies and practices regarding the collection and use of your information, please read Vivid Media Privacy Policy available at ltvhd.com/privacy. The Privacy Policy is incorporated by reference and made part of these Terms. Thus, by agreeing to these Terms, you agree that your presence on the Vivid Media Site and use of the Services through any other Access Point are governed by the Vivid Media Privacy Policy in effect at the time of your use.

7. User Reviews, Comments, and Other Material

7.1 Your Posts. As part of the Services, users may have an opportunity to publish, transmit, submit, or otherwise post (collectively, “Post”) reviews, comments, or other materials (collectively, “User Material”). In order to keep the Services enjoyable for all of our users, you must adhere to the rules below. Please choose carefully the User Material that you Post. Please limit yourself to User Material directly relevant to the Services. Moreover, you must not Post User Material that: (i) contains Unsuitable Material (as defined above in Section 3); or (ii) improperly claims the identity of another person. Please note that if you Post User Material on Vivid Media using a third-party service, such as a social network or email provider, your first and last name or other user ID may appear to the public each time you Post. We advise that you do not, and you should also be careful if you decide to, Post additional personal information, such as your email address, telephone number, or street address. You must be, or have first obtained permission from, the rightful owner of any User Material you Post. By submitting User Material, you represent and warrant that you own the User Material or otherwise have the right to grant Vivid Media the license provided below. You also represent and warrant that the Posting of your User Material does not violate any right of any party, including privacy rights, publicity rights, and intellectual property rights. In addition, you agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and other payments owed to any party by reason of your Posting User Material. Vivid Media will remove all User Material if we are properly notified that such User Material infringes on another person’s rights. You acknowledge that Vivid Media does not guarantee any confidentiality with respect to any User Material. By Posting User Material, you are not forfeiting any ownership rights in such material to Vivid Media. After Posting your User Material, you continue to retain all of the same ownership rights you had prior to Posting. By Posting your User Material, you grant Vivid Media a limited license to use, display, reproduce, distribute, modify, delete from, add to, prepare derivative works of, publicly perform, and publish such User Material through the Services and on other platforms and services worldwide, including on or through any Access Point, in perpetuity, in any media formats and any media channels now known or hereinafter created. The license you grant to Vivid Media is non-exclusive (meaning you are not prohibited by us from licensing your User Material to anyone else in addition to Vivid Media), fully-paid, royalty-free (meaning that Vivid Media is not required to pay you for the use of your User Material), and sub licensable (so that Vivid Media is able to use its affiliates, subcontractors, and other partners, such as internet content delivery networks, to provide the Services). By Posting your User Material, you also hereby grant each user of the Services a non-exclusive, limited license to access your User Material, and to use, display, reproduce, distribute, and perform such User Material as permitted through the functionality of the Services and under these Terms.

7.2 Third Party Posts. Despite these restrictions, please be aware that some material provided by users may be objectionable, unlawful, inaccurate, or inappropriate. Vivid Media does not endorse any User Material, and User Material that is Posted does not reflect the opinions or policies of Vivid Media. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor User Material and to restrict or remove User Material that we determine, in our sole discretion, is inappropriate or for any other business reason, as permitted by law. In no event does Vivid Media assume any responsibility or liability whatsoever for any User Material, and you agree to waive any legal or equitable rights or remedies you may have against Vivid Media with respect to such User Material. You can help us tremendously by notifying us of any inappropriate User Material you find by emailing us (subject line: “Inappropriate User Material”).

8. Linked Destinations and Advertising

8.1 Third Party Destinations. If we provide links or pointers to other websites or destinations, you should not infer or assume that Vivid Media operates, controls, or is otherwise connected with these other websites or destinations. When you click on a link within the Services, we will not warn you that you have left the Services and are subject to the terms and conditions (including privacy policies) of another website or destination. In some cases, it may be less obvious than others that you have left the Services and reached another website or destination. Please be careful to read the terms of use and privacy policy of any other website or destination before you provide any information or engage in any transactions. These Terms do not govern your use of another website or destination. Vivid Media is not responsible for the content or practices of any website or destination other than the Vivid Media Site, even if it links to the Vivid Media Site and even if the website or destination is operated by a company affiliated or otherwise connected with Vivid Media. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that Vivid Media is not responsible or liable to you for any content or other materials hosted and served from any website or destination other than the Vivid Media Site.
8.2 Third Party Advertisements and Services. Vivid Media takes no responsibility for and does not endorse any third-party advertisements or any third-party material Posted on any Access Point where the Services are available, nor do we take any responsibility for the products or services provided by advertisers. Any dealings you have with advertisers while using the Services, including through engaging with interactive advertisements, are between you and the advertiser, and you agree that Vivid Media is not liable for any loss or claim that you may have against an advertiser. If you provide any confidential or personal information or engage in any transaction through an advertisement, Vivid Media is not responsible for such information or transaction, and we encourage you to read the terms of use and privacy policy of the advertiser or other party collecting such information or engaging in such transaction.

9. Trademarks

Vivid Media logo, and other Vivid Media marks, graphics, logos, scripts, and sounds are trademarks of Vivid Media. None of the Vivid Media trademarks may be copied, downloaded, or otherwise exploited.

10. Unsolicited Submissions

It is Vivid Media policy not to accept unsolicited submissions, including scripts, story lines, articles, fan fiction, characters, drawings, information, suggestions, ideas, or concepts. Vivid Media policy is to delete any such submission without reading it. Therefore, any similarity between an unsolicited submission and any elements in any Vivid Media creative work, including a film, series, story, title, or concept, would be purely coincidental.
