Instead, each item of Open Source Software is licensed under the terms of the end-user license that accompanies such Open Source Software. Nothing in this Agreement limits Customer’s rights under, or grants Customer rights that supersede, the terms and conditions of any applicable end user license for the Open Source Software. If required by any license for particular Open Source Software, DeepVideo makes such Open Source Software, and DeepVideo’ modifications to that Open Source Software, available by written request at the notice address specified below.

Customer hereby grants to DeepVideo a royalty-free, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, irrevocable, perpetual license to use or incorporate into the DeepVideo Platform any suggestions, enhancement requests, recommendations or other feedback provided by Customer, including Authorized Users, relating to the DeepVideo Platform. DeepVideo will not identify Customer as the source of any such feedback.
5. FEES AND EXPENSES; PAYMENTS
5.1 Fees. In consideration for the access rights granted to Customer by DeepVideo under this Agreement, Customer will pay to DeepVideo the Fees in the amounts set forth on DeepVideo’ pricing page found at this page. By providing DeepVideo and/or its Third-Party Service providers with Customer’s payment information, Customer agrees that DeepVideo and/or its Third-Party Service Providers are authorized to charge Customer for all Fees due and payable to DeepVideo hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. DeepVideo reserves the right to modify the Fees payable hereunder upon written notice to Customer at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the then-current term. DeepVideo reserves the right (in addition to any other rights or remedies DeepVideo may have) to discontinue and suspend Customers’ and all Authorized Users’ access to the DeepVideo Platform if any Fees are more than thirty (30) days overdue until such amounts are paid in full. Customer will maintain complete, accurate and up-to-date Customer billing and contact information at all times.
5.2 Third-Party Service Provider. DeepVideo uses Stripe, Inc. and Orb, Inc. as its third-party service providers for payment services (e.g., card acceptance, merchant settlement, and related services) (each a “Third Party Service Provider”). If Customer makes a purchase on the DeepVideo Platform, Customer will be required to provide its payment details and any additional information required to complete its order directly to a DeepVideo Third Party Service Provider. Customer agrees to be bound by Stripe’s Privacy Policy (currently accessible at https://stripe.com/us/privacy) and its Terms of Service (currently accessible at https://stripe.com/ssa) and hereby consents and authorizes DeepVideo and Stripe to share any information and payment instructions Customer provides with one or more Third-Party Service Provider(s) to the minimum extent required to complete Customer’s transactions. Please note that online payment transactions may be subject to validation checks by our Third-Party Service Providers and Customer’s card issuer, and DeepVideo is not responsible if Customer’s card issuer declines to authorize payment for any reason. For Customer’s protection, DeepVideo’ Third-Party Service Providers use various fraud prevention protocols and industry standard verification systems to reduce fraud and Customer authorizes them, as applicable, to verify and authenticate Customer’s payment information. Customer’s card issuer may charge Customer an online handling fee or processing fee. DeepVideo is not responsible for this. In some jurisdictions, DeepVideo’ Third-Party Service Providers may use third parties under strict confidentiality and data protection requirements for the purposes of payment processing services.
5.3 Taxes. The Fees are exclusive of all applicable sales, use, value-added and other taxes, and all applicable duties, tariffs, assessments, export and import fees, or other similar charges, and Customer will be responsible for payment of all such taxes (other than taxes based on DeepVideo’ income), fees, duties, and charges and any related penalties and interest, arising from the payment of the fees, the provision of the DeepVideo Platform, or the
299099593 v6
licenses granted herein to Customer. Customer will make all payments of Fees to DeepVideo free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes; any such taxes imposed on payments of Fees to DeepVideo will be Customer’s sole responsibility, and Customer will provide DeepVideo with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as DeepVideo may reasonably request, to establish that such taxes have been paid.
