We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action against anyone who we conclude, in our sole discretion, has violated the provisions above.

3Intellectual Property Rights

Content You Submit. When you submit Content to the Services, you represent and warrant that you own all right, title and interest in and to that Content (including, without limitation, all copyrights and rights of publicity), or that you have received all necessary permissions, clearances, and authorizations in order to submit it to the Services for the uses contemplated in these Terms.

When you submit such Content, you retain whatever ownership rights in that Content you had to begin with. You grant MUMUKO, to the fullest extent permitted under the law, a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid up, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to copy, display, upload, perform, distribute, transmit, make available, store, modify, exploit, commercialize and otherwise use the Content for any MUMUKO-related purpose in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed, including without limitation to operate, improve and provide the Services. You agree that these rights and licenses include a right for MUMUKO to make the Content available to, and pass these rights along to, others with whom we have contractual relationships, and to otherwise permit access to or disclose the Content to third parties if we determine such access is or may be necessary or appropriate.

We reserve the right to review, screen, and take action on Content that is flagged by our automated safety systems or reported by users, and to remove Content that violates these Terms, our Community Guidelines, or applicable law. We do not monitor private conversations in the ordinary course of providing the Service.

Characters & Generations. When you create an automated AI character ("Character") using the Services in accordance with these Terms, then as between you and MUMUKO, you own all rights in that Character. As between you and MUMUKO, you also own any text, images, audio, or video the Character generates ("Generations") that are elicited by you. You grant MUMUKO, to the fullest extent permitted under the law, a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid up, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to copy, display, upload, perform, distribute, transmit, make available, store, access, modify, exploit, commercialize and otherwise use the Character and all Generations elicited by you for any purpose in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed, including but not limited to (i) facilitating other users' ability to interact with the Character and elicit Generations, and (ii) promoting the Services on- or off-platform.

When you interact with a Character created by MUMUKO or created by another user who utilized the Services in accordance with the then-applicable Terms, then you own Generations that are elicited by you from such Character (but not the Character itself or other Generations or other Content, all of which will remain owned by MUMUKO or the other third-party owner(s) thereof, as applicable). You grant MUMUKO, to the fullest extent permitted under the law, a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid up, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to copy, display, upload, perform, distribute, transmit, make available, store, access, modify, exploit, commercialize and otherwise use the Generations elicited by you for any purpose in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed, including but not limited to (i) facilitating other users' ability to interact with the Character and elicit Generations, and (ii) promoting the Services on- or off-platform.

Services Content, Software and Trademarks. You acknowledge and agree that the Services may contain content or features protected by copyright, patent, trademark, trade secret or other proprietary rights and laws. In connection with your use of the Services you will not engage in or use any data mining, robots, scraping or similar automated data gathering or extraction methods. If you are blocked by us from accessing the Services (including by blocking your IP address), you agree not to implement any measures to circumvent such blocking (e.g., by masking your IP address or using a proxy IP address). Any use of the Services or content on the Services other than as specifically authorized herein is strictly prohibited. Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved by us.

The MUMUKO name and logos are trademarks of MUMUKO (collectively the "MUMUKO Trademarks"). Other trademarks used and displayed via the Services may be trademarks of their respective owners who may or may not endorse or be affiliated with or connected to MUMUKO. Nothing in these Terms or the Services should be construed as granting any license or right to use any of MUMUKO Trademarks without our prior written permission in each instance. All goodwill generated from the use of MUMUKO Trademarks will inure to our exclusive benefit.

Third Party Material. Under no circumstances will MUMUKO be liable for any content or materials of any third parties, including Characters created by third parties and any resulting Generations. This includes, but is not limited to, infringement of intellectual property rights, errors or omissions in any content, and any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any such content. You acknowledge that we do not pre-screen content and that AI-generated chats, by their nature, are unpredictable and may produce Generations that are inaccurate or offensive. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any Content or Generations. You should not rely on the accuracy or completeness of statements made in Content or Generations, and if you do so, you acknowledge that it is at your own risk.

You acknowledge that we have the right (but not the obligation) in our sole discretion to refuse or remove any content (including Content, Characters and Generations) that is available via the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, we have the right to remove any content that violates these Terms or is deemed otherwise objectionable by us, in our sole discretion.

You acknowledge and agree that any questions, comments, suggestions, ideas, feedback or other information about the Services provided by you to MUMUKO are non-confidential, and that we are entitled to use and disseminate them for any purpose, without acknowledgment of or compensation to you.

You acknowledge and agree that we may preserve content and metadata in compliance with applicable law and our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge and agree that we may disclose content and/or metadata if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with legal process, applicable laws or government requests; (b) enforce these Terms; (c) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; or (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of MUMUKO, its users and the public.

4Copyright Complaints

MUMUKO respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our users to do the same. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, you should notify MUMUKO of your infringement claim in accordance with the procedure set forth below.

DMCA Notices. MUMUKO will process and investigate notices of alleged infringement and will take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") and other applicable intellectual property laws with respect to any alleged or actual infringement. You can contact our copyright agent via email at support@mumuko.app and send us the following information with the email:

1. An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright's interest.
2. A description of the copyrighted work that You claim has been infringed, including the URL (i.e., web page address) of the location where the copyrighted work exists or a copy of the copyrighted work.
3. Identification of the URL or other specific location on the Service where the material that You claim is infringing is located.
4. Your address, telephone number, and email address.
5. A statement by You that You have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement by You, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in Your Notice is accurate and that You are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

Upon receipt of a notification, the Company will take whatever action, in its sole discretion, it deems appropriate, including removal of the challenged content from the Service.

Counter-Notices. If you believe that your Content was removed or disabled due to a DMCA notice, and you believe the Content is not infringing, you may send us a counter-notice containing the following information to support@mumuko.app:

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. Identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
3. A statement that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the content;
4. Your name, address, telephone number and email address; and
5. A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court located within the Northern District of California and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If we receive a counter-notice, we will send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing them that we will restore the removed/disabled content within 14 business days unless the original complaining party tells us they have filed a court action relating to the Content.

Repeat Infringer Policy. In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, MUMUKO has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. MUMUKO may also at its sole discretion limit access to the Services or terminate the registrations of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

5Third Party Websites and Services

The Services or third parties may provide links or other access to other sites and resources on the Internet or to third-party applications. MUMUKO has no control over such sites, resources or applications and MUMUKO is not responsible for and does not endorse them. You acknowledge and agree that MUMUKO will not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused by reliance on any content, events, goods or services available on or through any such sites, resources or applications. Any dealings you have with third parties found while using the Services are between you and the third party, and you agree that MUMUKO is not liable for any loss or claim that you may have against any such third party.

6Content Reporting

The Services do not permit obscene or pornographic content, as set out in Section 2. If you believe that content on the Services is illegal or violates these Terms or our Community Guidelines, you can report it to us at support@mumuko.app. We review reports and act on content that we confirm is illegal or in violation. A person depicted in content on the Services, or the holder of rights in it, may ask us to remove that content.

7Indemnity and Release

You agree to release, indemnify and hold MUMUKO and its affiliates and their officers, employees, directors and agents harmless from any and all losses, damages, and expenses of any kind arising out of or relating to your use of the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, the release and indemnification described above includes reasonable attorneys' fees, rights, claims, actions of any kind and injury (including death) arising out of or relating to your use of the Services.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says:

A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.

If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.

8Disclaimer of Warranty

Your use of the Services is at your sole risk. The Services are provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. MUMUKO expressly disclaims all warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including, but not limited to the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement. MUMUKO makes no warranty that (i) the Services will meet your requirements, (ii) the Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free, or (iii) the results that may be obtained from the use of the Services will be accurate or reliable.

9Limitation of Liability

You understand and agree that MUMUKO will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or damages for loss of profits including but not limited to damages for loss of goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses (even if MUMUKO has been advised of the possibility of such damages), whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, resulting from: (i) the use or the inability to use the Services; (ii) your access, use, creation of, or interaction with any Content, Character or Generations; (iii) your sharing with any third party of any Content, Character or Generations; (iv) unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data; (v) statements or conduct of any third party (including users) on the Services; or (vi) any other matter relating to the Services. In no event will MUMUKO's total liability to you for all damages, losses or causes of action exceed the greater of: (i) $100; or (ii) the amount you paid MUMUKO (if any) in connection with your use of the Services.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the limitations set forth above may not apply to you. If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the Services or with these Terms, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue use of the Services.

10Dispute Resolution and Governing Law

1. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution. MUMUKO is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and fairly, and so if you have concerns, we strongly encourage you to first contact us about them at support@mumuko.app.
2. Governing Law and Arbitration Scope. If the dispute cannot be resolved through the above process, legal action will be required. ALL LEGAL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE TERMS (INCLUDING ANY DISPUTE REGARDING THE INTERPRETATION OR PERFORMANCE OF THE AGREEMENT) ("Dispute") WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, USA, EXCLUDING CALIFORNIA'S CONFLICTS OF LAWS RULES. Sorry for putting that in caps, but hopefully you read it carefully. We're talking about serious and reasonably meritorious legal claims, not personal disputes that don't cause economic harm.
3. Good Faith Efforts to Resolve Disputes. The parties will try in good faith to settle any Dispute within 30 days after the Dispute arises. If the Dispute is not resolved within 30 days, it shall be resolved by arbitration by the American Arbitration Association's International Centre for Dispute Resolution in accordance with its Expedited Commercial Rules in force as of the date of the Terms ("Rules").
4. Arbitration Location and Language. The parties will mutually select one arbitrator. The arbitration will be conducted in English in Santa Clara County, California, USA.
5. Injunctive Relief. Either party may apply to any competent court for injunctive relief necessary to protect its rights pending resolution of the arbitration. The arbitrator may order equitable or injunctive relief consistent with the remedies and limitations in the Agreement.
6. Confidentiality of Arbitration. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties. The arbitral award will be final and binding on the parties and its execution may be presented in any competent court, including any court with jurisdiction over either party or any of its property.
7. Costs of Arbitration. Each party will bear its own lawyers' and experts' fees and expenses, regardless of the arbitrator's final decision regarding the Dispute.

11Termination

You agree that MUMUKO, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Services and remove and discard any content within the Services, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if MUMUKO believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms.

MUMUKO may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Services, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Services under any provision of these Terms may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that MUMUKO may (but has no obligation to) immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Services. Termination of your account or access to any component of the Services will not terminate MUMUKO's rights to your Content. Further, you agree that MUMUKO will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Services.

12Changes to these Terms

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms at any time. If we do this, we will post the changes on this page and will indicate at the top of this page the date these Terms were last revised. Any such changes will become effective no earlier than 14 days after they are posted, except that changes addressing new functions of the Services or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. Your continued use of the Services after the date any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms.
