THIS IS A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND FLATHEAD U, LLC (“FLATHEAD”). YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY READ THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THE FLATHEAD U PRIVACY POLICY (THE “PRIVACY POLICY”), WHICH IS INCORPORATED INTO AND MADE A PART OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Welcome to the Flathead U, LLC Xinet video training center (the “Training Center”). The Training Center offers our customers an online service that provides Flathead’s proprietary training videos and presentations on The Xinet suite of software, Adobe products that work in conjunction with the Xinet suite of software, Quark software working in conjunction with the Xinet suite of software and other software where applicable (the “Content”).
All use of the Training Center is governed by this Agreement (including any future revisions of this Agreement). Any use of the Training Center not in accordance with this Agreement is expressly prohibited. We reserve the right to change, modify and delete provisions of this Agreement at any time. If we do so, we will post the changes on this page or email you a notice, indicating the effective date. Your continued use of the Training Center after such notice constitutes your acceptance of the modified Agreement. If you do not agree to abide by these or any future terms, you will not be permitted to use the Training Center.
3.1. All rights and title in and to the Training Center, including the Content, and any and all data and statistics generated by or in connection with the Training Center are owned by Flathead or its licensors and are protected by United States and international laws. The Training Center may contain certain licensed materials, and Flathead’s licensors may enforce their rights in the event of any violation of this Agreement. For clarity, Content is licensed to you; you will not obtain any ownership interest in any of the Content.
3.2. Without limiting any of the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that you have no ownership or other property interest in your account with Flathead (the “Account”), or any other attributes associated with the Account. Flathead does not recognize the transfer of Accounts. You may not purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, or offer to purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, and any such attempt will be null and void.

You agree that you have no right or title in or to any such content.

Information and materials submitted to Flathead, such as any comments, feedback, ideas, questions, designs, data or the like regarding or relating to the Training Center or the business of Flathead (collectively, “Feedback”), will be considered non-confidential and non-proprietary with regard to you, but Flathead reserves the right to treat any such Feedback as the confidential information of Flathead. For this reason, we ask you not to send us any information or materials that you do not wish to assign to us.
4.1. To establish an Account, you will be required to provide Flathead with certain personal information. Your failure to supply accurate information to Flathead when requested, or to update that information as it changes, may result in an interruption or cancellation of service. You agree that we may handle your personal information as described in our Privacy Policy.
4.2. During the registration process, you will also be required to select a password that is unique to your Account. You may not share the Account or your password with anyone except as expressly permitted under this Agreement. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, and you will be responsible for all uses of your password, whether or not authorized by you. In the event that you become aware of or reasonably suspect any breach of security, including any loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of your password, you must immediately notify Flathead by emailing __________.
4.3. You have elected a subscription package set forth on the subscription election page.

You agree to use the Training Center only for purposes that (a) are permitted by the terms of this Agreement and (b) comply with applicable laws, regulations and generally accepted practices in the relevant jurisdictions (including any laws regarding the export of data or software to and from the United States or other countries).
5.2. You agree that you will not engage in any activity that intentionally interferes with or disrupts the Training Center (or the servers and networks connected to the Training Center) and that you will not reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, trade or resell the Training Center or any Content to any person or for any purpose, or remove any proprietary notices or labels on the Training Center.
5.3. All users of the Training Center are expected to behave appropriately. You agree to monitor the uses made of the Training Center and the Content by your agents, employees, contractors, advisors and others who use the Training Center or communicate with us on your behalf.

You will indemnify and hold harmless Flathead from any damage, loss or expense (including reasonable attorneys fees) it suffers or incurs as a result of your breach.
5.5. Flathead regularly tries to improve the Training Center and the Content. You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Training Center and Content may change periodically without prior notice to you. You therefore acknowledge and agree that, as part of this continuing process of improvement, Flathead may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing the Training Center (or any features within the Training Center) to you or to all users generally at Flathead’s sole discretion, without prior notice. (If this means you are denied services you’ve paid for, we will provide appropriate credits or refunds.)
5.6. You acknowledge that the Training Center, or any feature or part thereof, may not be available in all languages or in all countries and Flathead makes no representation that the Training Center, or any feature or part thereof, is appropriate or available for use in any particular location.

6.1. Flathead’s privacy policies are described in our Privacy Policy, which explains how Flathead treats personal information entrusted to it. The Training Center is designed so that you are generally not required (and are actively discouraged) from submitting identifiable information about individuals, so the amount of such data in our possession is minimal (generally limited to certain identifiable information of the personnel who subscribe to the Training Center on a user’s behalf).
6.2. We have adopted reasonable methods to prevent unauthorized access to the Training Center and the Content and other information you submit to us. However, these measures depend on your using the mechanisms we provide to maintain security, including your responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of your Flathead passwords. Further, you recognize that no online system is foolproof and therefore you waive and release us from any claim for loss or damage caused by a breach of security, theft or misuse of your proprietary information stored or access on the Training Center, loss or injury to individuals attributed to a security breach or identity theft, or similar problems, unless caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct.
7.1. The terms of this Agreement will continue to apply until terminated by either you or Flathead as set forth below.

You agree and acknowledge that you are not entitled to any refund for any amounts which were pre-paid on behalf of the Account prior to any termination of your Account. However, if you voluntarily cancel your membership, the termination of your Account will not occur until the end of the subscription period for which you have paid, and you will be able to continue using the Training Center until such time.
7.3. Flathead may at any time, terminate this Agreement with you if:
(a) you have breached any provision of this Agreement (or have acted in manner which clearly shows that you do not intend to, or are unable to, comply with the provisions of this Agreement); or

(c) Flathead elects, in its sole discretion, to cease operating the Training Center and providing the Content.
7.4. When these Terms and our agreement come to an end, all of the legal rights, obligations and liabilities that you and Flathead have benefited from, been subject to (or which have accrued over time) or which are expressed to continue indefinitely, shall be unaffected by this cessation, and the provisions of Sections 8-14 below shall continue to apply to such rights, obligations and liabilities indefinitely.
