These Terms of Service are a legally binding contract between you and Otter Network regarding your use of the Platform.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS CAREFULLY

BY CLICKING “I ACCEPT,” OR BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD, AND, AS A CONDITION TO YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY, THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING THE OTTER NETWORK PRIVACY POLICY AND ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS AND POLICIES OTTER NETWORK MAY PROVIDE FROM TIME TO TIME (TOGETHER, THESE "TERMS"). IF YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE, OR DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE OUR PERMISSION TO USE THE PLATFORM. YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM, AND OTTER NETWORK’S PROVISION OF THE PLATFORM TO YOU, CONSTITUTES AN AGREEMENT BY OTTER NETWORK AND BY YOU TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.

Please read the OTTER NETWORK Privacy Policy carefully for information relating to our collection, use, storage, and disclosure of your personal information. The Otter Network Privacy Policy is incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.

1. Otter Network Platform Overview

The Platform provides a video creation tool that enables users to produce videos, incorporating content including videos, photographs, graphics, music tracks, text, icons, and other types of works (“User Content”).

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years old to use the Platform. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least 16 years old; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Platform; and (c) your registration and your use of the Platform is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations. If you are an entity, organization, or company, the individual accepting these Terms on your behalf represents and warrants that they have authority to bind you to these Terms and references to you herein (and all of your obligations hereunder) will refer to such entity and any individual using the Platform on such entity’s behalf.

3. Accounts and Registration

To access most features of the Platform, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us with certain information about yourself, such as your name, email address, or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up to date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at admin@otter.network.

4. Pricing

4.1 Price 

Otter Network reserves the right to determine pricing for the Platform. Otter Network will make reasonable efforts to keep pricing information published on the website up to date. We encourage you to check our website periodically for current pricing information. Otter Network may change the fees for any feature of the Platform, including additional fees or charges, if Otter Network gives you advance notice of changes beforehand, they apply. Otter Network, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with distinctive features and different pricing to any of Otter Network’s customers. These promotional offers, unless made to you, will not apply to your offer or these Terms.

4.2 Authorization 

You authorize Otter Network to charge all sums for the orders that you make and any level of Platform you select as described in these Terms or published by Otter Network, to the payment method specified in your account. If you pay any fees with a credit card, Otter Network may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.

4.3 Subscription Platform and Cancellation Policy 

The Platform may include automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Platform”). If you activate a Subscription Platform, you authorize Otter Network to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The “Subscription Billing Date” is the date when you purchase your first subscription to the Platform. For information on the “Subscription Fee,” please see our Pricing page. Your account will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date for all applicable fees for the next subscription period. The subscription will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription, or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic Subscription Fee to your account. We will bill the periodic Subscription Fee to the payment method you provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). You may cancel the Subscription Platform by accessing your account settings or by contacting us at: admin@otter.network
