TERMS OF SERVICE

Welcome to Seezi!

Entrance

Thank you for using the Seezi platform and the products, services and features we offer you as part of it (collectively, the "Service"). 

Our Service

The service allows you to discover, watch, and share videos and other content, provides a forum where people can connect, inform, and inspire others from around the world, and serves as a distribution platform for advertisers and original content creators, both large and small. There’s a lot of information about our products and how to use them in the Help Center. Among other things, you can learn about Seezi Kids, the Seezi Partner Program, and Seezi Paid Memberships and Purchases. You can also find information about enjoying content on your TV, game console, or even other devices.
 

Your Service Provider

The legal entity providing the Service is Nihat Mican ("Seezi", "we", "us" or "our"). References in these terms to Seezi's "Business Partners" mean other companies within the Nihat Mican private company.

Terms and Conditions

Your use of the Service is subject to these terms, the Seezi Community Rules, and the Policy, Safety, and Copyright Policies (collectively, the “Agreement”). Your Agreement with us also includes the Seezi Advertising Policies if you provide advertising or sponsorship on the Service or include paid promotions in your Content.

Please read this Agreement carefully and make sure you understand it. If you do not understand it or do not agree to any part of it, you may not use the Service.

Who can use the Service?

Age Requirements

You may use the Service if you are at least 13 years old, but children of all ages may use the Service and Seezi Kids if enabled by a parent or guardian (where applicable).

Parental or Guardian Consent

If you are under 18, you must have the consent of your parent or legal guardian to use the Service. Please ask them to read this Agreement with you.

If you are the parent or legal guardian of a user under 18, by allowing your child to use the Service, you are bound by the terms of this Agreement and are responsible for your child's actions on the Service. You can find tools and resources to help you manage your family's experience on Seezi (and information on how to enable children under 13 to use the Service and Seezi Kids) in the Help Center .

Businesses

If you are using the Service on behalf of a company or organization, you confirm to us that you have the authority to act on behalf of such entity and that such entity accepts this Agreement.

Your Use of the Service

Content on the Service

Content on the Service includes video, audio (such as music and other sounds), graphics, photos, text (such as comments and scripts), branding (including trade names, trademarks, service marks, or logos), interactive features, software, metrics, and other materials (collectively, "Content") provided by you, Seezi, or a third party. Content may be provided to the Service and distributed by our users, and Seezi is the host of such Content. Content is the responsibility of the person or entity that provides the Content to the Service. Seezi is not responsible in any way for the content posted. Any content that violates copyright or community guidelines is the responsibility of the channel owner who uploaded the content to seezi. If the existing content violates copyrights, you are the copyright owner or does not comply with community guidelines (such as sex, gambling, etc.), the channel owner will remove the content and may terminate the channel. If you see any Content that you believe does not comply with this Agreement, for example, if it violates the Community Guidelines or the law, you can let us know.

Seezi Accounts and Seezi Channels

You may use certain parts of the Service, such as browsing and searching for Content, without having a Seezi account. However, you must have a Seezi account to use certain features. With a Seezi account, you can like videos, subscribe to channels, create your own Seezi channel, and much more. You can easily create a Seezi account by clicking on the sign up button.

Creating a Seezi channel gives you access to additional features and functionality, such as uploading videos, commenting, or creating playlists.

To protect your Seezi account, keep your password confidential. You should not reuse your Seezi account password on third-party applications. Learn more about keeping your Seezi account secure, including what to do if you detect unauthorized use of your password or Seezi account.

Your information

Our Privacy Policy explains how we process your personal data and protect your privacy when you use the Service. Seezi Kids Privacy Notice provides additional information about our privacy practices specific to Seezi Kids.

We process any audio content or audiovisual content uploaded by you to the Service in accordance with the Seezi Data Processing Terms, except when you upload such content for personal purposes or for home activities.

Permissions and Restrictions

You may access the Service as provided to you, as long as you comply with this Agreement and the law. You may view or listen to Content for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may also display Seezi videos through the embeddable Seezi player.

The following restrictions apply to your use of the Service. You are not allowed to:

Reservation Reservation

All rights not expressly granted to you in this Agreement remain the property of Seezi or the relevant rights holders. This means, for example, that using the Service does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in the Content you access (including any branding used or displayed on the Service).

Developing, Improving and Updating the Service

Seezi is constantly making changes to and improving the Service. As part of this continuous development, we may make changes to the Service (whether in whole or in part), such as adding or removing features and functions, providing new digital content or services, or discontinuing old ones. We may need to make changes to the Service or discontinue any part of the Service to make performance or security improvements, to comply with the law, or to prevent illegal activities or misuse of our systems. These changes may affect all users, some users, or even a single user. If the Service requires or includes downloadable software (such as the Seezi studio app), the relevant software may be automatically updated on your device when a new version or feature becomes available, depending on your device settings. If we make significant changes that adversely affect your use of the Service, we will provide you with reasonable notice. Except in urgent cases, such as preventing misuse of the Services, complying with legal requirements, or addressing security and usability issues. We also offer the opportunity to export your content from your Seezi Account via Seezi Export, subject to applicable laws and policies.

Your Content and Behavior

Content Upload

If you have a Seezi channel, you may upload Content to the Service. You may use your Content to promote your business or artistic endeavor. If you choose to upload Content, you must not submit any Content to the Service that is not in compliance with this Agreement or the law. For example, the Content you submit must not include third-party intellectual property (such as copyrighted material) unless you have permission from that party or otherwise have the legal right to do so. You are legally responsible for the Content you submit to the Service. The channel owner is solely responsible for the Content. Seezi has no responsibility to monitor or monitor all such Content on an individual basis. We may use automated systems to analyze your Content to help detect violations and abuses, such as spam, malware, and illegal content.

Your Granted Rights

You retain all ownership rights to your content. In short, what's yours stays yours. However, we do require that you grant Seezi and other users of the Service certain rights as described below.

License Granted to Seezi

By providing Content to the Service, you grant Seezi a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to use such Content (including reproducing, distributing, modifying, displaying, and presenting) for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving the Service. Seezi may use the Content you share in its other applications and content as it wishes, and you may not claim any rights to such Content (except for the purpose of promoting, improving, etc. your Content through other channels).

License Granted to Other Users

You also grant each other user of the Service a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to access and use Your Content through the Service (including reproducing, distributing, modifying, displaying and presenting such Content) solely in a manner that is enabled by a feature of the Service.

License Term

The licenses granted by you continue until the Content is removed as described below. After removal, the Service ceases to operate, except for use of the Content permitted prior to your removal or as otherwise required by law. For example, removal of Content by you does not require Seezi to: (a) retrieve the Content that is currently being used by other users within any limited offline viewing functionality of the Service, or (b) delete copies that we need to retain for legal purposes.

The Right to Earn Money

You grant Seezi the right to monetize your Content on the Service (which may include advertising on the Content or charging users access fees). This Agreement does not grant you the right to receive payments. As of June 1, 2021, payments you are entitled to receive from Seezi under any other agreement between you and Seezi (including, for example, payments made through the Seezi Partner Program, Channel memberships, and Super Chat) will be considered royalties. Seezi will withhold taxes from such payments where required by law.

Removing Your Content

You may remove Your Content from the Service at any time. You also have the option to make a copy of Your Content before removing it. If you no longer have the rights required by these terms, you must remove Your Content.

Removal of Your Content by Seezi

If we reasonably believe that any of your Content (1) violates this Agreement or (2) could harm Seezi, our users, or third parties, we reserve the right to remove or take down all or part of such Content. We will notify you of our reason for our action, except when we reasonably believe that doing so would: (a) violate a law enforcement order or the law or otherwise create the risk of legal liability for Seezi or our Business Partners; (b) compromise an investigation or the integrity or operation of the Service; or (c) harm any user, another third party, Seezi, or our Business Partners. More information about notification and enforcement, including how to object, can be found on the Troubleshooting page of our Help Center.

Community Guidelines Strikes

Seezi uses a "strike" system to address Content that violates Seezi's Community Guidelines. Each strike has different restrictions and can result in your channel being permanently removed from Seezi. A full explanation of how strikes affect your channel can be found on the Community Guidelines Strike Basics page. If you believe a strike is in error, you can appeal.

If your channel has been restricted due to a strike, you must not use any other channel to bypass these restrictions. Any violation of this prohibition is a material breach of this Agreement and Seezi reserves the right to close your Seezi account or terminate your access to all or parts of the Service.

Copyright Protection

We provide information at the Seezi Copyright Center to help copyright owners manage their intellectual property online. If you believe your copyright has been infringed on the Service, please send us a notification.

We respond to claims of copyright infringement pursuant to the processes available at the Seezi Copyright Center. You can also find information on how to resolve a copyright strike there. Seezi's policies provide for the termination of access to the Service for repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

Account Suspension and Termination

Terminations by You

You may stop using the Service at any time. You may also delete the Service from your Seezi Account. This process involves closing your Seezi channel and removing your data with the option to first download a copy of your data.

Termination and Suspension by Seezi

Seezi reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Seezi account or your access to all or part of the Service if (a) you materially or repeatedly breach this Agreement; (b) we are required to do so to comply with a legal requirement or court order; or (c) we reasonably believe that conduct is likely to give rise to liability or harm to any user, other third party, Seezi or the Partner.

Notice of Termination or Suspension

We will notify you of the reason for Seezi’s termination or suspension, except when we reasonably believe that providing notice would: (a) violate the law or law enforcement order, (b) compromise an investigation, (c) compromise the integrity, operation or security of the Service, or (d) harm any user, another third party, Seezi or our Business Partners.

Effect of Account Suspension or Termination

If your Seezi account is terminated or your access to the Service is restricted, you may continue to use certain aspects of the Service (such as viewing only) without an account, and this Agreement will continue to apply to such use. If you believe the termination or suspension was in error, you may appeal using the form in the contact section.

About the Software in Our Service

Downloadable Software

If the Service requires or includes downloadable software (such as the Seezi Studio application), unless such software is subject to additional terms provided by a license, Seezi grants you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-transferable, and non-exclusive license to use the software provided to you by Seezi as part of the Service. This license is for the sole purpose of enabling you to use and enjoy the benefit of the Service as provided by Seezi and as permitted by this Agreement. Except where such restrictions are prohibited by law or you have the written permission of Seezi, you are not permitted to copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any portion of the software or reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code of the software.

Open Source

Some of the software used in our Service may be provided under an open source license that we make available to you. An open source license may contain terms that expressly override some of these terms, so please make sure you read them.
