Copyright
All information, content, services and software displayed on, transmitted through, published, performed, or used in connection with SmartVideo Services, including for example news articles, reviews, directories, guides, text, photographs, images, illustrations, audio clips, video, html, source and object code, trademarks, logos, and the like (collectively, the "Content"), as well as its selection and arrangement, is owned or licensed by SmartVideo, its affiliated companies, licensors or suppliers. You may use the Content in a “streaming” or similar temporary format only, and solely for your personal, non-commercial use, provided you do not remove any trademark, copyright or other notice from such Content. No other use is permitted without prior written permission of SmartVideo. The permitted use described in this Paragraph is contingent on your compliance at all times with these Terms of Service.

You may not, for example, republish any portion of the Content on any media, including, without limitation, Internet, Intranet or extranet site or incorporate the Content in any database, compilation, archive or cache. You may not distribute any Content to others, whether or not for payment or other consideration, and you may not modify copy, frame, cache, reproduce, sell, publish, transmit, display or otherwise use any portion of the Content.

Subscription and Registration
If you become a subscriber of SmartVideo Services, you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account and agree not to sell, transfer or assign your Subscription or any Subscription rights.

• Transactions and e-commerce on web sites.

During your visit to our web site or our third parties web site you may elect to engage in a transaction involving the purchase of a SmartVideo Services subscription. To serve you most efficiently, credit card transactions for subscription services are handled by a third party processing agent, bank or distribution institution. While in most cases transactions are completed without difficulty, there is no such thing as "perfect security" on the Internet or offline. If you're concerned about online credit card safety, in most cases a telephone number will be made available so you can call us and place your order by phone. SmartVideo cannot take responsibility for the success or security of transactions undertaken or processed by third parties.
• You agree to pay all subscription fees and any other charges incurred in connection with your subscription (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. All fees will be billed at the beginning of your subscription or any renewal (or as soon thereafter as fees or charges are incurred) and are nonrefundable. You are responsible for all fees and charges incurred to access SmartVideo Services through an Internet access provider or other third party service. Your subscription will renew automatically, unless we terminate it or you unsubscribe through our web site or a third parties web site to terminate your subscription. You must cancel your subscription before it renews in order to avoid billing of fees for the renewal term to your credit card.

• On occasion, a product or service may not be available at the time or the price as it appears in an advertisement. In such event, or in the event a product is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to typographical error, technology effort, error in the date or length of publication, or error in pricing or product information received from our advertisers or suppliers, you agree SmartVideo is not responsible for such errors or discrepancies.
