1.1 License to Off World Depot. The Seller hereby grants Off World Depot a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, distribute, transmit, modify, adapt, publicly display, and publicly perform the Content (collectively, the "Use") as necessary for marketing, administrative, demonstration, and operation of the Marketplace. This Use may include, but is not limited to, the promotion, operation, and marketing of the Marketplace and the distribution of the Content to customers for the purpose of granting them digital rights in the Content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Off World Depot shall be under no obligation to distribute the Content.
1.2 License to Customers. In addition, the Seller acknowledges and agrees that Off World Depot may grant customers a non-exclusive, perpetual, worldwide license to download, use, reproduce, transmit, modify, publicly display, publicly perform, distribute, license, promote, sell, and otherwise make use of the Content for personal, promotional, and/or commercial purposes (collectively, the "Customer Digital Rights").
1.3 Distribution Not a Sale. The Seller and Off World Depot hereby acknowledge and agree that the distribution of the Content to customers via the Marketplace is not a sale of the Content itself, but rather, a grant of the Customer Digital Rights to use the Content in accordance with this Agreement.
3.1 Content Ownership. Aside from the rights explicitly granted by the Seller to Off World Depot in the preceding clause, Off World Depot unequivocally acknowledges that it does not gain any right, title, or interest from the Seller under this Agreement regarding any Content provided by the Seller, inclusive of any Intellectual Property rights inherent in said Content. On receipt of a written request from the Seller, Off World Depot pledges to discontinue offering for sale any digital rights pertaining to any or all Content supplied by the Seller through the Marketplace within a commercially acceptable timeframe.
3.2 Seller's Assurances. The Seller asserts and warrants that they possess all necessary Intellectual Property rights requisite to confer upon Off World Depot the rights delineated in this Agreement. This encompasses necessary patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary rights relating to the Seller's Content. In instances where the Content comprises third-party materials, the Seller avers that they are legally entitled to circulate such third-party material incorporated within the Content. The Seller agrees to abstain from submitting any material to the Marketplace that is protected by copyright, trade secret, or subject to any other proprietary rights, unless the Seller either owns these rights or possesses explicit permission from the rights owner to do so.
3.3 Restricted Licenses. The Seller assures and warrants that their Content does not embody any software, content, or other material that is licensed under a restricted license, or that constitutes a modification or derivative of any software, content or material governed by such a restricted license.
3.4 Disclosure Authorization. The Seller accedes that Off World Depot is entitled to share the Seller's name, address, and other contact information with any third party who legitimately contests that the Seller lacks the requisite Intellectual Property rights in and to the Seller's Content. This encompasses all necessary patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary rights.
4.1 Termination Rights. Either party may terminate this Agreement at any time, for any reason or for no reason, with or without cause or explanation, by providing written notice to the other party. Such written notice may be delivered via email. Such termination shall take effect immediately upon receipt of said notice, subject to the following conditions:
4.2 Final Payment. In the event of termination, Off World Depot will issue a final payment to the Seller, provided that the Seller's payment information has been correctly set up as outlined in Section 3 of this Agreement. Off World Depot will make reasonable attempts to contact the Seller, including through discord chat and provided email, to ensure this final payment is processed. Any unpaid balances due to payment threshold restrictions will be included in this final payment.
4.3 Content Removal. Upon termination of this Agreement, the Seller will use the artist dashboard to remove any and all products they do not wish Off World Depot to continue to offer on the platform.
4.4 Post-Termination Obligations. Following the termination of this Agreement by either Off World Depot or the Seller, Off World Depot is under no obligation to distribute any further profit sharing payments for any products previously offered on the platform. Off World Depot cannot reasonably revoke all licenses that have been granted to customers in relation to the Seller's Digital Content. Any content that was downloaded while the Seller's agreement and account were active will continue to exist in perpetuity, and no new licenses will be distributed for a terminated account. It is the Seller's responsibility to remove their content from the platform.
5.1 Accuracy of Information. The Seller represents and warrants that all information they have provided to Off World Depot, including descriptions and representations of their Content, is accurate and truthful and does not misrepresent the quality or nature of the Content.
5.2 Prohibition on Generative AI Content. The Seller represents and warrants that their Content has not been created utilizing generative AI programs, except as initial reference material in the preliminary stages of a project. No final Content should incorporate elements created by generative AI programs. Off World Depot reserves the right to amend this Agreement in the future to allow the use of AI-generated Content, but at this point, it views such use as potentially infringing on the rights of artists whose work might be used without consent, compensation, or credit. Until the practices of generative AI companies align more closely with ethical standards, AI-generated Content is prohibited in Off World Depot's libraries.
5.3 Customer Support. The Seller is solely responsible for providing any customer support and maintenance for their Content. Any customer complaints regarding the Seller's Content will be directed to the Seller for resolution.
5.4 No Violation of Rights or Law. The Seller represents and warrants that their Content does not violate or infringe upon any copyright, trademark, trade secret, patent, privacy right, or any other right of any individual or third party. They further warrant that their Content does not defame any person or group or violate their rights of publicity or privacy, and that it does not breach any contract or law or regulation. The Seller warrants that their Content is free of viruses, adware, spyware, or any other harmful or malicious content.
