Terms of Use
Last Updated: 7/1/2024
Waymark’s legal team works hard to make things simple for you. We’ve summarized our Terms of Service into delightfully simple 1-paragraph and 1-page versions that anyone can read. Upon request, there’s also a long-form version with the complete terms.
If you want to discuss portions to these Terms for an enterprise agreement with your organization, please contact our sales team.
1-PARAGRAPH VERSION
Waymark equips your team with anyone-can-edit video. As a customer, you can watch and create Draft Videos free of charge, and you can purchase a download license, which gives you the right to use Waymark Video Renders, in their original form, for business and non-business purposes, including any and all online or TV advertising. Our license covers use on all platforms including online, TV, outdoor events, theaters, etc., though not all aspect ratios will work on every platform. Feel free to contact us to discuss specific plans for your video. Waymark Video Renders may contain content that you do not own; importantly, you cannot extract such content from a Waymark Video Render or re-use such content for any purpose, nor can you use Waymark Video Renders for illegal, immoral or other restricted purposes. In general, all purchases on Waymark.com (the “Site”) are final and non-refundable, though we will always do our best to “make it right.” Remember, this is just a short summary. For more information, continue reading below.
FULL VERSION
COMMERCIAL TERMS
By using the Waymark product and platform you agree to the following terms (the “Terms of Use” or the “Terms”) set out by Waymark I, Inc. (“Waymark”, “us” or “we”). The entirety of the Waymark platform, including its AI-powered video creation tool, the Brand It Tool, and all source code necessary to run it are, for the purposes of these Terms of Use, the “Waymark Product” or the “Product.”
If you purchase a Video Render, you can show and share your Video Render online in nearly any way you’d like, including all forms of paid online advertising; publishing / sharing on 3rd party platforms (Facebook, Youtube, LinkedIn, Snapchat, etc) for business or non-business purposes; and publishing to your website or email list. Additional edits or updates to your Video Renders may cost extra.
“Video Render” means the act of a video being created using a Draft Video, rendered as a final video file (whether .mp4, .mov, or any other type then in use by Waymark’s technology) and downloaded onto any device for the first time by any of Customer’s user accounts. Though multiple formats of a Draft Video may be rendered, the initial rendering of the Draft Video constitutes a Video Render. Subsequent downloads of the same video file or of the same video in a different format after this initial download shall not constitute a Video Render.
“Draft Video” means a whole single creative asset, consisting of video, photographic, typographic, audio, editing, and animated graphics elements with dynamic portions changeable by a User Account or user. The source code used to create and power the interaction of the above elements is, itself, also an element of the Draft Video. Such Draft Video is inclusive of all of these elements and does not include any single element or combination of multiple elements outside of the context of the Draft Video as a whole. A Draft Video can be used to create an unlimited number of Video Renders.
Your Video Renders may also be used for out-of-home advertising, theatrical viewings, television broadcast worldwide and for any other platform that exists now or in the future. However, not all videos have the correct aspect ratio for every platform, so make sure to check your platform’s requirements before finalizing your Video Render. Waymark makes no guarantee that your video will be playable on any specific platform or viewing device.
All purchases are final and non-refundable. Subscriptions are auto-renewing on the billing cycle that you select at purchase or as laid out if your Terms of Use. If you choose to stop a subscription, your service will end and you will not be billed again after all outstanding payments have been made.
CONTENT AND USAGE RIGHTS
Waymark Video Renders may include a combination of content you own, content that we create and own, and content - including video clips, images, music, and sound effects - that we license from other content owners.
You are responsible for content that you upload, as well as content added through use of the Brand It Tool, that our technology discovers on your website, social media profiles, and directory listings, and content that you add to a Waymark Draft Video via any integration we offer with our product. If you create a Waymark Video Render using other people’s content, likeness or trademark without permission, you could be sued by the content owner, and you’ll be solely responsible for any damages.
You cannot extract any content that you do not own from a Waymark Video Render for any purpose. For example, music that is synced to your video cannot be extracted and synced to other videos. Images that you don’t own cannot be extracted for any purpose. Video clips you do not own cannot be extracted for any purpose. If you do extract assets that you do not own and re-use them, you could be sued by the content owner, and you’ll be responsible for any damages. You may not remove any digital fingerprints from videos.
Waymark is intended to empower people, not to hurt people. You may not create videos intended to defame or otherwise harm others, to promote hate speech or violence in any form, or to impersonate other people or brands. You may not use stock content that includes identifiable people in any form of pornography or ads for tobacco products, adult products, political candidates, etc.
RESELLERS
While we strive to make Waymark easy enough that anyone can use it, if you have a reseller account (that is Waymark Co-Brand, Waymark White-Label, Waymark Plugin or Waymark Integration), you are allowed to use the Waymark Site to create Video Renders for others, and you may charge a service fee for this work. All of the same rights & restrictions outlined here are intended to apply equally to anyone who pays you for help creating a video, and it is your responsibility to communicate these limitations to them. If you fail to do so and your client acts in violation of these terms, you could be liable for damages. If you have a Waymark standard account, you may not resell Video Renders or any other part of the Waymark Product.
Waymark reserves the right to suspend access to the Site to anyone that violates the letter or spirit of our Terms. If your access is terminated for this reason, your previously purchased licenses will be revoked and you will no longer be allowed to use videos that you created with Waymark.

CONTENT USAGE RIGHTS AND LICENSES
(a) Use of the Brand It Tool.
For your convenience, Waymark offers the optional Brand It Tool which will populate a Draft Video with your content from the internet. By using this tool, you are directing Waymark to search your website, Yelp profile, Facebook page, Google My Business profile, and Zillow listing. Waymark will retrieve from these pages: information about your business, including location, industry, phone number; images; customer reviews; and various other media assets. We attempt to retrieve from these sources only the content that you have uploaded or over which you otherwise have uncontested ownership. However, it is your responsibility to review the content after we have retrieved it and to ensure that it is content to which you have an ownership right or express permission for inclusion in your Video Render. Waymark does not collect information from these sources in either a “bulk” or “crawling” manner, but only at your specific direction through your choosing to use the Brand It Tool. The Waymark Site and our video ad product will work without Brand It and you may choose not to use Brand It. Once you have used Brand It, we will store any content which has been retrieved from the sites mentioned above in order for you to use it again in future Draft Videos or Video Renders, but we will delete this data if you directed us to do so.

Creation of any Video Renders incorporating your User Content does not indicate that we accept, approve, or endorse such User Content or that such User Content is in compliance with any applicable laws or these Terms or otherwise absolve you of any liability or harm arising from the use of such User Content.

LEGAL DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
INITIAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION
We are available by email at team@waymark.com to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Site. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
TERMS OF USE AND BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 15.1 above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration. All claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including its formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or your use of the Site shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS on a non-confidential basis in accordance with the provisions of its then-effective rules, including its streamlined procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms of Use, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Use is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The procedures and rules of the Federal Arbitration Act shall exclusively govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision and the parties hereby reject, waive and disclaim the application of any state Arbitration Act.
The JAMS Rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/, or by calling JAMS at 1.800.352.5267. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, Waymark will pay the additional cost. A request for payment of fees should be submitted to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and Waymark will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, we will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. The arbitration rules also permit you to recover attorney’s fees in certain cases.
The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER
The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
EXCEPTION – SMALL CLAIMS COURT CLAIMS
Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.
You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in the preceding three paragraphs by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following address: 1555 Broadway, 3rd Floor, Detroit, MI 48226. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of registering to use the Site, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those Sections. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, Waymark also will not be bound by them.
EXCLUSIVE VENUE FOR LITIGATION
Solely to the extent the arbitration provisions set forth above do not apply, or for purposes of either party enforcing an award granted to it pursuant to arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Detroit, Michigan (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Detroit, Michigan for any litigation other than small claims court actions. The Parties irrevocably consent to personal jurisdiction in Detroit, Michigan for any litigation and hereby waive, for all purposes, their right to challenge the lack of personal jurisdiction of Detroit, Michigan over any litigation arising in connection with, out of, or as a result of (a) these Terms or the Site, and (b) any acts or omissions of any of the Covered Entities in connection with these Terms or the Site.
TIMING OF CLAIMS
You must bring any claim you have against Waymark relating to these Terms or the Site within two years from the date of accrual of the applicable claim.
