Welcome to Conviva!
Conviva’s products and services analyze, measure and optimize the delivery of video over the Internet. You are visiting Conviva’s Web user interface to access Conviva’s products and services. By registering for and using any of the Conviva products or services, including applications, libraries, software development kits, other software, websites or other properties owned or operated by Conviva or by registering for a Conviva account (collectively, the “Services”), you are agreeing to be bound by these terms and conditions, called the Conviva Terms of Use (“Terms”), which outline the terms and conditions regarding your use of the Services. These Terms are a legally binding contract between you and Conviva (“Conviva”, “we” or “us”), so please read them carefully. If you do not agree with these Terms, do not register for or use any of the Services.
To access and use the Services, you must have initially registered by creating a user profile, during which you accepted these Terms. Your continued use of, and access and use on each subsequent visit to, the Services constitutes continuing agreement to these Terms as they may be revised from time to time. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you are agreeing to these Terms for that organization and promising to Conviva that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms (in which event, "you" and "your" will refer to that organization) unless that organization has a separate binding contract in effect with Conviva, in which event the terms of that contract will govern your use of the Services.
We reserve the right to modify these Terms. We will post the most current version of these Terms on Conviva’s Web portal known as Pulse (“Pulse”) or you can also access them at https://pulse.conviva.com/legal/#terms. If we make material changes to these Terms, we will post the updated version of the Terms in Pulse and at the above link. If you do not accept the changes, you must stop using the Services. Your continued use of the Services after we publish our changes to these Terms means that you are consenting to the updated terms.
By registering with Conviva or signing up for the Services, you understand that we may send you (including via email) information regarding the Services, such as: (a) notices about your use of the Services, including notices of violations of use; (b) updates to the Services and new features or products; and (c) promotional information and materials regarding Conviva’s products and services. If you do not wish to receive promotion information, please contact Conviva at marketing@conviva.com. Notices emailed to you will be considered given and received when the email is sent. If you don't consent to receive notices (other than promotional materials) electronically, you must stop using the Services.
To access certain Services including the Insights Services (as defined below), you must have been invited by Conviva or your company’s administrative lead(s), or if solely accessing Conviva’s Developer Community, you can initiate your registration by visiting https://community.conviva.com/dpRegister/create. Conviva will initially set up the applicable company administrative lead(s) (each, an “Admin User”). If accessing Insights Services, multiple Admin Users may be set up, the identity and number of which depend on the needs of the Customer and its video player configurations. Such Admin User(s) may then designate and invite regular users to use the Insights Services (Admin Users and regular users are referred to collectively and individually as “User” unless specified otherwise).
When registering for any of our Services, you must create a User profile and establish User credentials to access and use the Services. Your credentials consist of a User ID (“UID”), which must be the fixed business email address included in the authorization and/or invitation, and a password (together “registration” and “credentials”).
User login credentials and requirements:
To access and use certain of the Services, called the “Insights Services”, which includes but is not limited to Experience Insights, Precision, Experience Benchmarks, Ad Insights, Content Insights and other Insights Services, you must be personnel of a current or prospective customer with Conviva’s authorization to access the Insights Services. The Insights Services may be accessed through Pulse.
Certain Insights Services include the use of Google Maps features and content and your use of such features and content is subject to the then-current versions of the: (1) Google Maps/Google Earth Additional Terms of Service at https://maps.google.com/help/terms_maps.html; and (2) Google Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.
The Services include access to: (a) Conviva’s Developer Community (“Developer Community”), which is an online resource containing Conviva proprietary materials and information to assist authorized parties with integrating, and validating integrations of, video players with the Insights Services; and (b) Conviva’s Developer Tools (“Developer Tools”), which is an online resource containing software tools and other applications used for integrating, and validating integrations of, video players with the Insights Services. You may access and use the Developer Community and the Developer Tools, including all of the materials, software and information contained or located therein, solely for the purposes of performing or supporting the integration or validation of Conviva technology with the video player(s) of a current or prospective Conviva customer or a Conviva-authorized business development partner. You may also be granted registration, access and use rights as either personnel of an authorized third-party developer, or personnel of a current or prospective Conviva customer.
So that Conviva may test and validate that the video players in your device applications have been integrated with the Services (“Device Applications”), you may be required to provide to Conviva sample Device Applications or access thereto. In such case, you grant Conviva a limited, non-exclusive, fully-paid, royalty-free, worldwide, non-transferable license to use the sample Device Applications for the purposes of testing and validating that the video player(s) included in those Device Applications have been properly integrated with the Services.
