Terms of Service

Please read this Terms of Service agreement carefully before accessing or using Dewstack.

A. Definitions

1. The “Agreement” refers, collectively, to all the terms, conditions, notices contained or referenced in this document (the “Terms of Service” or the "Terms") and all other operating rules, policies (including the Dewstack Privacy Statement) and procedures that we may publish from time to time on the Website. 2. The “Service” refers to the applications, software, products, and services provided by Dewstack. 3. The “Website” refers to Dewstack’s website located at dewstack.com, and all content, services, and products provided by Dewstack at or through the Website. It also refers to Dewstack-owned subdomains of dewstack.com. Occasionally, websites owned by Dewstack may provide different or additional terms of service. If those additional terms conflict with this Agreement, the more specific terms apply to the relevant page or service. 4. “The User,” “You,” and “Your” refer to the individual person, company, or organization that has visited or is using the Website or Service; that accesses or uses any part of the account; or that directs the use of the account in the performance of its functions. A User must be at least 16 years of age. Special terms may apply for business or government accounts (See Section B(4): Additional Terms). 5. “Dewstack,” “We,” and “Us” refer to DewStack OÜ., as well as our affiliates, directors, subsidiaries, contractors, licensors, officers, agents, and employees. 6. “Content” refers to content featured or displayed through the Website, including without limitation text, data, articles, images, photographs, graphics, software, applications, designs, features, and other materials that are available on the Website or otherwise available through the Service. "Content" also includes Services. “User-Generated Content” is Content, written or otherwise, created or uploaded by our Users. "Your Content" is Content that you create or own.

B. Account Terms

1. Required Information

You must provide a valid email address in order to complete the signup process. Any other information requested, such as your real name, is optional, unless you are accepting these terms on behalf of a legal entity (in which case we need more information about the legal entity) or if you opt for a paid account, in which case additional information will be necessary for billing purposes.

2. Account Requirements

We have a few simple rules for accounts on Dewstack's Service. You must be a human to create an account. Accounts registered by "bots" or other automated methods are not permitted. We do permit machine accounts:

A machine account is an account set up by an individual human who accepts the Terms on behalf of the account, provides a valid email address, and is responsible for its actions. A machine account is used exclusively for performing automated tasks. Multiple users may direct the actions of a machine account, but the owner of the account is ultimately responsible for the machine's actions. You may maintain no more than one free machine account in addition to your free personal account.

One person or legal entity may maintain no more than one free account (if you choose to control a machine account as well, that's fine, but it can only be used for running a machine).

You must be age 16 or older. Dewstack does not target our Service to children under 16, and we do not permit any Users under 16 on our Service. If we learn of any User under the age of 16, we will terminate that User’s account immediately. If you are a resident of a country outside the Estonia, your country’s minimum age may be older; in such a case, you are responsible for complying with your country’s laws.

Your login may only be used by one person — i.e., a single login may not be shared by multiple people.

3. User Account Security

You are responsible for keeping your account secure while you use our Service. We may offer tools to help you maintain your account's security, but the content of your account and its security are up to you. You are responsible for all content posted and activity that occurs under your account.

You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and password. Dewstack cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage from your failure to comply with this security obligation.

You will promptly notify Dewstack if you become aware of any unauthorized use of, or access to, our Service through your account, including any unauthorized use of your password or account.

4. Additional Terms

In some situations, third parties' terms may apply to your use of Dewstack. For example, you may be a member of an organization on Dewstack with its own terms or license agreements; you may download an application that integrates with Dewstack; or you may use Dewstack to authenticate to another service. Please be aware that while these Terms are our full agreement with you, other parties' terms govern their relationships with you.

You agree not to engage in activity that significantly harms our Users. We will resolve disputes in favor of protecting our Users as a whole.

D. User-Generated Content

1. Responsibility for User-Generated Content

You may create or upload User-Generated Content while using the Service. You are solely responsible for the content of, and for any harm resulting from, any User-Generated Content that you post, upload, link to or otherwise make available via the Service, regardless of the form of that Content. We are not responsible for any public display or misuse of your User-Generated Content.

2. Dewstack May Remove Content

We do not pre-screen User-Generated Content, but we have the right (though not the obligation) to refuse or remove any User-Generated Content that, in our sole discretion, violates any Dewstack terms or policies.

3. Ownership of Content, Right to Post, and License Grants

You retain ownership of and responsibility for Content you create or own ("Your Content"). If you're posting anything you did not create yourself or do not own the rights to, you agree that you are responsible for any Content you post; that you will only submit Content that you have the right to post; and that you will fully comply with any third party licenses relating to Content you post. Because you retain ownership of and responsibility for Your Content, we need you to grant us — and other Dewstack Users — certain legal permissions, listed in Sections D.4 — D.7. These license grants apply to Your Content. If you upload Content that already comes with a license granting Dewstack the permissions we need to run our Service, no additional license is required. You understand that you will not receive any payment for any of the rights granted in Sections D.4 — D.7. The licenses you grant to us will end when you remove Your Content from our servers, unless other Users have forked it.

4. License Grant to Us

We need the legal right to do things like host Your Content, publish it, and share it. You grant us and our legal successors the right to store, parse, and display Your Content, and make incidental copies as necessary to render the Website and provide the Service. This includes the right to do things like copy it to our database and make backups; show it to you and other users; parse it into a search index or otherwise analyze it on our servers; share it with other users; and perform it, in case Your Content is something like music or video. This license does not grant Dewstack the right to sell Your Content or otherwise distribute or use it outside of our provision of the Service.

5. License Grant to Other Users

Any User-Generated Content you post publicly, including comments, and contributions to other Users' spaces, may be viewed by others. If you set your spaces to be viewed publicly, you grant each User of Dewstack a nonexclusive, worldwide license to use, display, and perform Your Content through the Dewstack Service. If you are uploading Content you did not create or own, you are responsible for ensuring that the Content you upload is licensed under terms that grant these permissions to other Dewstack Users.

6. Moral Rights

You retain all moral rights to Your Content that you upload, publish, or submit to any part of the Service, including the rights of integrity and attribution. However, you waive these rights and agree not to assert them against us, to enable us to reasonably exercise the rights granted in Section D.4, but not otherwise. To the extent this agreement is not enforceable by applicable law, you grant Dewstack the rights we need to use Your Content without attribution and to make reasonable adaptations of Your Content as necessary to render the Website and provide the Service.

E. Private Spaces

1. Control of Private Spaces.

Some accounts, such as paid accounts, may have private spaces, which allow the User to control access to Content.

2. Confidentiality of Private Spaces.

Dewstack considers the contents of private spaces to be confidential to you. Dewstack will protect the contents of private spaces from unauthorized use, access, or disclosure in the same manner that we would use to protect our own confidential information of a similar nature and in no event with less than a reasonable degree of care.

3. Access.

Dewstack employees may only access the content of your private spaces in the following situations: With your consent and knowledge, for support reasons. If Dewstack accesses a private spaces for support reasons, we will only do so with the owner’s consent and knowledge.

When access is required for security reasons.

You may choose to enable additional access to your private spaces. For example: You may enable various Dewstack services or features that require additional rights to Your Content in private spaces. These rights may vary depending on the service or feature, but Dewstack will continue to treat your private space Content as confidential. If those services or features require rights in addition to those we need to provide the Dewstack Service, we will provide an explanation of those rights.

You may also grant a third-party application authorization to use, access, and disclose the contents of your private spaces. Your use of third-party applications is at your sole risk; Dewstack is not liable for disclosures to third parties that you authorize to access a private space.

4. Exclusions.

If we have reason to believe the contents of a private space are in violation of the law or of these Terms, we have the right to access, review, and remove them. Additionally, we may be compelled by law to disclose the contents of your private spaces.

F. Copyright Infringement

If you believe that content on our website violates your copyright and if you are a copyright owner and you believe that content on Dewstack violates your rights, please contact us by emailing support@dewstack.com. There may be legal consequences for sending a false or frivolous takedown notice. Before sending a takedown request, you must consider legal uses such as fair use and licensed uses. We will terminate the accounts of repeat infringers of this policy.
