2. LICENSE TO EUNITE

By submitting your content to eUnite, you grant eUnite certain rights to use and promote it. This includes the right to offer, market, modify, enhance, and adapt your Submitted Content. Furthermore, you grant eUnite permission to use your content in connection with offering, delivering, marketing, promoting, demonstrating, and selling the Services, your Submitted Content, or eUnite's content. By granting this permission, you waive any rights of privacy, publicity, or similar nature, to the extent allowed by applicable law.

Additionally, you authorize eUnite to sublicense these rights to third parties, including direct customers and other entities such as resellers, distributors, affiliate sites, deal sites, and third-party platforms engaged in paid advertising. eUnite's right to use the Submitted Content for marketing purposes will persist even after termination.

You retain the right to remove part or all of your Submitted Content from the Services at any time, unless otherwise agreed upon. In such cases, eUnite's right to sublicense the content will terminate for new users 60 days after the removal date. However, rights granted to customers before the removal will continue in accordance with their licenses, including any grants of lifetime access. eUnite may retain and utilize portions of your Submitted Content for quality control and operational purposes related to the Services.

3. NON-DISPARAGEMENT

3.1 Non-Disparagement Policies

Your access to the Services is contingent upon eUnite's approval, which is granted or denied at our sole discretion. We reserve the right to remove content, withhold payments, or deactivate Course Providers at any time and without prior notice, under the following circumstances:

Failure of a Course Provider or their Submitted Content to comply with our policies or legal terms.<
Content that falls short of our quality standards or negatively impacts the customer experience.
Actions taken by a Course Provider that may result in negative publicity, contempt, scandal, or ridicule for eUnite.
Involvement of a Course Provider with a marketer or business partner who violates eUnite's policies.
Improper use of eUnite's Services by a Course Provider, including engaging in unfair competition or promoting off-site businesses in violation of eUnite's policies.
Any other reasons deemed appropriate by eUnite, in its sole discretion.

3.2 Customer Relationship and Data Use

Due to the absence of a direct contractual link between Course Providers and customers, you may only obtain customer information through the Services. You are obligated to use this data solely for the purpose of delivering your services to customers on the Platform. Soliciting additional personal information or retaining customer data outside the Platform is strictly prohibited. Moreover, you agree to indemnify eUnite against any claims arising from your use of customer data.

3.3 Anti-Piracy Measures

To protect your content against unauthorized use, we employ anti-piracy measures, including notice and takedown procedures as stipulated in relevant copyright laws such as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. We also take other actions to safeguard your rights. You authorize eUnite to issue notices on your behalf to protect your copyright interests.

4. PRICING

4.1 Setting Prices

When creating Submitted Content on the Platform, you will have the option to establish a base price ("Base Price") from a range of available price tiers, or provide the Submitted Content for free.

In cases where a customer purchases in a foreign currency, we will convert the relevant Base Price into the customer's currency using eUnite's system-wide foreign currency conversion rate. This rate is periodically established and recorded in a table referred to as the Price Tier Matrix ("Price Tier Matrix"), which contains corresponding price tiers for different currencies. It is important to note that the fixed nature of the Price Tier Matrix may not reflect the current market rate at the time of the transaction. We retain the right to update the Price Tier Matrix as needed.

When you share your Submitted Content on the Platform, you grant us the right to disseminate it, at no cost, in connection with adapting, modifying, marketing, demonstrating, delivering, and selling the Services, to our employees, selected partners, and in cases where we need to restore access to accounts that have previously purchased your Submitted Content. Please be aware that you will not receive compensation under these circumstances.

4.2 Transaction Taxes

If a customer makes a purchase in a jurisdiction where eUnite is required by law to remit national, state, local sales, use, value-added taxes (VAT), or similar transaction taxes ("Transaction Taxes"), we will collect and remit those Transaction Taxes to the relevant tax authorities. We may adjust the sale price at our discretion to account for these taxes.

5. PAYMENTS

5.1 Revenue Sharing

Upon a customer's purchase of your Submitted Content, we calculate the gross amount ("Gross Amount") as the actual sum received from the customer. From this Gross Amount, we may deduct various expenses and deductions, including Transaction Taxes and any payments to third parties associated with the sale. This calculation yields the net amount ("Net Amount") of the sale.

You will receive a revenue share equivalent to seventy percent (70%) of the Net Amount, subject to applicable deductions. Should we decide to modify this payment rate, we will provide you with a 30-day notice through prominent means, such as email or notice on our Services.

5.2 Course Provider Coupons and Referral Links

Through the eUnite platform, you can generate coupon codes and referral links to offer discounts or free access to specific items of your Submitted Content, as allowed by the Services. However, please note that these coupon codes and referral links are subject to specific limitations. Selling them on third-party websites or offering them in exchange for compensation is strictly prohibited. They are intended for use exclusively within the Services and their designated functionalities.

5.3 Receiving Payments

Payments will be dispersed via active and valid PayPal, Credit Card, or Automated Clearing House (ACH) information. Please keep your linked email address and required payment information up-to-date. Additionally, you must provide any necessary identification details or tax documentation to facilitate the payment process for owed amounts. As required by law, we may withhold applicable taxes from your payments, including a 3% withholding tax for Course Providers with billing addresses in Thailand. Failure to furnish the required information may result in payment withholding or other penalties.

Payments will be issued within 45 days following the end of the month in which we receive the fee for a course. This will be subject to the applicable revenue share model and only if your payout request surpasses the minimum payout threshold of $20.00 USD. We retain the right to withhold disbursement of funds in cases of confirmed fraud, intellectual property rights violations, or other legal breaches.

5.4 Payment Processor Errors

eUnite shall not be held responsible for any system failures or connectivity issues of third-party payment processors such as PayPal, Payoneer, or Course Providers’ financial institutions ("Payment Processors"), which may result in the failure to transmit Course Provider transactions within the required timeframes, unless such failure stems from eUnite's negligence.

eUnite disclaims any responsibility for claims, damages, fines, losses, or expenses arising from errors, omissions, negligence, or system failures of Payment Processors.

eUnite will collaborate in good faith with Course Providers to address transactions disrupted by Payment Processor errors.

Note that even after account deletion, customers who have already purchased or enrolled in your Submitted Content may continue to access your name and content for the agreed-upon duration. Deleting your account will not affect access for customers who have already enrolled in and purchased your Submitted Content.
