DEFINITIONS

Capitalized terms used in these Terms of Service have the meanings assigned to such terms in the text of these Terms of Service or as set forth below:

“Services” means the proprietary system, Site, mobile applications, products, offerings, features, information, tools, software, data feeds, interfaces, functionality and services owned, operated or provided by the Company, including, without limitation: (i) our automated transcription services and related user editing, logging, timecoding, bookmarking, annotation, exporting and sharing tools, (ii) payment services, and (iii) other features, tools and functionality relating thereto.

“Transcript” means any transcript or transcription of spoken words or language contained in audio or video files submitted by a user through the Site to be automatically transcribed by the Services, including any text, text file, website form, document or written or electronic information or content representing or displaying such automatically transcribed words or language, whether or not the transcribed content is accurate or complete, and including any edits, annotations or changes to such transcribed content made by a user, or any bookmarks, timestamps or other supplemental information contained therein; user edits, annotations or changes included in the definition of “Transcript” include, without limitation, (i) any annotations, notes, comments or similar edits, changes or additions that a user makes to the text of a Transcript, whether by way of a webpage form on the Site or otherwise, and (ii) any labels that a user applies to the text of any Transcript, for example, by way of any feature on the Site that allows users to add a name, initials or other label to portions of the text of a Transcript to indicate the name or identity of the speaker corresponding to such portion of text.

“user” or “you” or “your ” means any person who views, accesses, or uses the Site or the Services in any way, including users who register for an account with the Site.

ABOUT THE SERVICES

Simon Says is an automated transcription service that uses speech recognition technologies and automated processes to transcribe audio and video files uploaded by users. The Services allow users to view, edit, download, bookmark, annotate and export the Transcripts provided through the Services, and to share Transcripts with other users or recipients. The Services also provide a simple payment tool and related functionality that allows users to pay for the Services on a per-transcription or subscription basis and to apply any user credits or promo codes.

The transcription services we provide are fully automated and make use of our proprietary technology and certain third party speech recognition and data processing tools, APIs and technologies to provide Transcripts. We do not, and we do not hire or contract with any individual service providers to, manually transcribe any information, manually prepare any Transcripts, or confirm, review, check the accuracy or completeness of, or edit any Transcripts that are made available to users through the Services.

A significant portion of our Services utilizes and relies on Third Party Applications (as defined below), and we have no control whatsoever over any such Third Party Applications. As part of the Services, we rely on and use or reserve the right to use certain third party speech recognition and data processing tools, APIs, applications, software and technologies (“Third Party Applications”). For example, when a user uploads one or more audio or video files and purchases transcription Services for such files, we may use one or more Third Party Applications to process such files to, among other things: isolate audio tracks, isolate, recognize and process spoken natural language in such files, and record or output written text or data corresponding to any such spoken natural language recognized therein by the applicable speech recognition API. The Transcripts provided to users through the Services are based solely on such speech recognition APIs and other tools and functions of such Third Party Applications, and rely solely on the ability of such Third Party Applications to isolate, identify, recognize and record any spoken natural language contained in any audio or video files uploaded by a user to the Site for transcription Services.

The Site and the Services provide a conduit for users to access, indirectly through the Services, such Third Party Applications. Although we reserve the right to use Third Party Applications as part of the Services, our use of any such Third Party Applications does not imply approval or endorsement thereof by the Company. By agreeing to these Terms of Services, you give us express permission to use such Third Party Applications as part of the Services, including for the provision of Transcripts, and you give us express permission to transmit your uploaded audio and video files, or information therefrom, to one or more Third Party Services.

GENERAL DISCLAIMERS REGARDING THE SERVICES

For the reasons provided in the section above and herein, the Company is not and cannot be responsible for or guarantee the accuracy or completeness of any Transcript made available to users through the Site. We make no representations or warranties whatsoever, whether express or implied, and we make no guarantees about, and we expressly disclaim all liability and responsibility for or regarding: (a) the accuracy or completeness of any Transcript; (b) the quality, workmanship, suitability, appropriateness, relevance or value of any Transcript or any of the Third Party Applications or any product or service provided thereby; (c) whether or not any audio or video file uploaded by a user for transcription can be properly or adequately processed by any such Third Party Application; (d) whether or not any such Third Party Application can successfully isolate, identify, recognize and record any spoken natural language contained or purported to be contained in any audio or video files uploaded by a user to the Site for transcription; (e) whether or not the audio or recording quality of any audio or video files uploaded by a user to the Site for transcription is sufficient to be an eligible candidate for processing and recognition by any such Third Party Application or whether or not the file format of such files is suitable for processing by any Third Party Applications; (f) whether or not any audio or video file uploaded by a user for transcription contains spoken linguistic forms in a language, dialect, speech pattern or accent, or are verbalized in a manner, that is recognizable by any Third Party Applications, either because of the nature of the purported linguistic forms themselves or because of background noise or music, recording quality, data corruption or anything else of any nature that could impede automated speech recognition or processing; (g) whether or not any Third Party Application is fully or partially functional and up and running at any given time; or (h) whether or not any part of our Site or the Services that are proprietary to and owned by us, even if fully functional, may nonetheless fail to interact with any Third Party Application in the intended manner.

Although we endeavor to provide automated transcription Services that are swiftly executed, easy to use, reliable and that result in Transcripts that are as close as reasonably practicable to the spoken natural language contained in the submitted audio and video files, because of the automated nature of the processes we use, including the use of Third Party Applications, any user utilizing the Services must, and hereby agrees to, assume all risk in his or her use of the Services. The risks assumed by any user using the Services include, but are not limited to, the risk that any of the eventualities listed in the paragraph above or similar events will occur or fail to occur, the risk that any Transcript made available through the Services will be inaccurate, incomplete, incorrectly transcribed or formatted, unreadable, unusable, or even blank or substantially blank (for example, if none of the purported spoken natural language in the uploaded files is readable or recognizable). Users are solely responsible, and bear all risk for, ensuring that any audio or video files they upload for transcription are in a suitable file format, are of sufficient quality (including audio quality), and are otherwise suitable candidates for speech recognition and transcription.

We understand (and by reading these Terms of Service, you understand) that you are assuming risk for ensuring your audio or video files are suitable candidates for transcription using our Services. To the extent practicable and from time to time, we may endeavor to offer users an opportunity to try our transcription Services by way of the use of free credits that may be offered when a user registers for an account or purchases a subscription. Although we reserve the right to change our policy and practices with respect to free credits in our sole discretion at any time, we encourage users to use any free credits made available to them upon registration to run a trial transcription on their audio and video files or samples or subsets thereof to better understand the transcription process and to get a better understanding of how well such audio and video files respond to transcription through our Services. While each audio and video file is different and may result in Transcripts of varying quality, using free credits in a trial capacity may provide users with a fuller understanding of the risks involved. We cannot promise or guarantee that any Transcript you receive from the use of free credits will be representative of any other transcription or Transcript of different audio or video content, and we do not warrant that any such Transcription purchased with free credits constitutes a model, example or express or implied warranty of any other transcription or Transcript. Our limited aim, if we choose to offer free credits, is to encourage users to use the free credits to better understand our Services and products before purchasing any Transcript.

By agreeing to these Terms of Service, you acknowledge that if you upload audio and video files and purchase a Transcript, you bear the risk that the spoken language in such audio and video files will not be recognized and will not result in a complete or accurate Transcript. You understand that only certain languages are currently recognized and accepted by the Services . A list of the currently recognized and accepted languages can be found on the file upload page on the Site. Before proceeding with any transcription, a user is required to select from the available list of languages the language they wish to be applied to their transcription. Multiple languages cannot be selected. The language selected by the user will be the language in which the user’s audio or video files will be transcribed. We cannot be responsible for the language selection you make. If your audio and video files contain audio data of languages that are not currently recognized by the Services, or languages other than the language selected to be applied, no such audio data will be transcribed and the transcription of any audio data containing such unrecognized or unselected language will fail. You are responsible for ensuring that your audio and video files contain audio tracks of languages that are currently recognized and accepted by the Services. The Company is not responsible for Transcripts that are incomplete, inaccurate, unusable or substantially blank due to the fact that the language in such audio or video files is not one of the currently recognized and accepted languages, or is not the same language that the user selects to apply to the transcription. Furthermore, files with low audio quality, background noise or music, or where the natural language speech therein is difficult to hear or discern are unlikely to result in Transcripts that are accurate, complete or usable.

Users should be aware and should expect that Transcripts will not be error-free. In many respects, speech recognition software, processes and APIs (including those of the Third Party Applications) are still developing. They are not perfect, and users should expect that there will be some errors in any Transcript. Although we endeavor to provide users with swift transcriptions and quick processing and turn-around times, we make no guarantees about the length of time any transcription will take. You further understand and acknowledge that Transcripts will generally include only minimal or no punctuation (which may not be the correct or proper punctuation), and that Transcripts are not formatted other than as plain text. Users are solely responsible for any edits, annotations or changes they make to any Transcript using Site functionality.

As a user on our Site, you can learn more about the Services, including about pricing for the Services, from the information contained on our Site, which includes FAQs, descriptions of the Services, other descriptions, instructions, pictures and/or videos about Site functionality, use cases, processes and Transcripts. None of the aforementioned materials or any information available on or through the Site or the Services shall be deemed to be a representation, warranty, guarantee, model, or example of the quality, type, completeness, accuracy, workmanship, appropriateness, merchantability, or fitness for intended purpose of any Transcript, the Site or any of the Services.

We do not warrant that the quality of any Transcript, the Site, the Services or any other information obtained by you will meet your expectations, or that any Transcript, the Site or any Services will be error-free.

Each user understands and AGREES that a user’s decision to purchase transcription Services and Transcripts for any audio or video files uploaded by the user will OCCUR PRIOR to the transcription and the delivery of the PURCHASED Transcript. Even if you purchase transcription Services and a Transcript for audio and video files, the Transcript made available to you through the Site may not be accurate, complete or useable, and you hereby agree to bear all risk of loss in respect of any such Transcript.

Any Transcript, the Site, the Services and any Third Party Applications we use are provided to you “as is” and “as available” without any warranties, representations or guarantees of any kind, and we shall have no liability whatsoever arising from or relating to your use of the Site or the Services or any Third Party Applications, or your purchase, receipt (or failure thereof) or use of any Transcript.

CONFIDENTIAL OR PROTECTED INFORMATION

If you upload audio or video files containing any confidential information, you do so at your own risk that any confidential information contained therein may be intercepted, hacked or improperly accessed due to no fault by us. When we process files uploaded by users for transcription, we transcode and send audio files based on the submitted files to Third Party Applications for speech processing. Since such transcoded audio tracks are sent by us outside our network servers to a third party, it is possible that such information could be intercepted or stolen or inappropriately accessed during the transmission. A third party intercepting such data might be able to recover the audio information on the file and gain access to any confidential information therein. Additionally, the Third Party Applications we use may retain copies of any audio data or tracks we send for transcription, and any such copies on the servers of Third Party Applications could be subject to theft, interception and hacking. Finally, following processing by the Third Party Applications we use, the Third Party Applications send to us text data from the transcription, and any such text data could be intercepted.

Confidential information means any information that is confidential, privileged, subject to work product doctrines, private, proprietary, secret or protected in any way, including “material non-public information” under applicable securities laws, or protected health information of any person. Any files that you upload to the Site for Transcription, even if you do not ultimately purchase any transcription Services or a Transcript, will be deemed NOT to be confidential or protected, and we are not responsible for and cannot control such information, and we cannot guarantee its confidentiality.

We understand the importance of protecting any information contained in audio and video files uploaded for transcription by users, and we endeavor to take reasonable and practical measures to maintain the privacy of any such information. However, while we have adopted customary data processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorized access to user audio and video files or data related to transcriptions, please be aware that no security measures are perfect or impenetrable. Additionally, we are limited in our ability to control or protect data and information that we send to Third Party Applications for transcription. Therefore, we cannot and do not guarantee that your audio and video files or any other Submitted Content (as defined below) will not be improperly accessed by unauthorized persons. Please see below for additional terms and conditions relating to Submitted Content, copyright and intellectual property matters, and please refer to our Privacy Policy for additional information about data privacy.

USER ACCOUNTS

In order to access certain features of the Services, including any transcriptions and receiving any Transcripts, you will be required to create a user account. You may never use another user’s account without permission. When creating your account, you must provide accurate and complete information, and you must ensure that such information continues to be accurate and complete at all times. You may change, correct or remove any information from your account by logging into your account directly and making the desired changes. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure. You must notify the Company immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.

Although the Company will not be liable for your losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account, you may be liable for the losses incurred by the Company or others due to such unauthorized use.

You agree not to register for an account on behalf of an individual other than yourself, or register for an account on behalf of any group or entity unless you are authorized to bind such person, group or entity to these Terms of Service. By registering another person, group or entity, you hereby represent that you are authorized to do so.

PAYMENT OF FEES

As a user with a registered user account on the Site, you can purchase transcriptions and Transcripts on a per-transcription basis or on a subscription basis, provided that we reserve the right to change our offerings at any time. The fees for single transcriptions are based on a fixed price per transcribed minute of audio or video and are subject to a minimum price per transcription, as further set forth on the Site. Fees due for subscriptions to the Services are also available on the Site. We may offer subscriptions on a monthly or annual basis. Subscriptions provide for a specified allotment of transcribed time based on the level of subscription purchased.

All purchases are final. We don't offer refunds.

If you purchase a subscription to the Services, whether on a monthly or annual basis or otherwise, your subscription will automatically renew for the applicable subscription period at the then-current rate for such subscription, unless and until you notify us of your decision to terminate your subscription. If you would like to turn off automatic renewal, cancel your subscription, or extend your subscription for additional periods, please contact us via any option on this page.

BY PLACING YOUR ORDER FOR A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD OR PAYPAL ACCOUNT ON FILE FOR AUTOMATIC RENEWALS OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FOR THE APPLICABLE SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE THEN-CURRENT RATE UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION.

Subscriptions can be canceled by the user at any time by contacting us in the manner provided above. However, we do not provide refunds for any unused transcription minutes at the time of cancelation of your subscription. We reserve the right to modify the fees we charge for subscriptions, or the terms of any subscriptions we offer, from time to time in our discretion. Before you purchase any transcription services, Transcripts or subscriptions, please review any applicable pricing information and other applicable terms available on the Site. When you purchase transcription services or any subscription to our Services, you acknowledge your agreement with any such pricing terms or other applicable terms relating to your purchase, and any such terms are a part of the agreement between you and us.

By providing the Company with your credit card number or PayPal account details and associated payment information, you agree that the Company is authorized to immediately invoice or charge your account for all fees and charges due and payable to the Company hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required.

If your payment method fails or your account is past due, then we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms. This may include charging other payment methods on file with us and/or retaining collection agencies and legal counsel. We may also block your access to any Services pending resolution of any amounts due by you to the Company.
