1. SERVICE DETAILS
|
|
IX-ONE.COM's Online Copyright Registration division is a service provider and
does not offer legal, tax or financial advice.
When You purchase c-Site, You complete the online copyright registration
application form and submit it to IX-ONE.COM for review and processing. After
IX-ONE.COM's review is complete, Your copyright application will be prepared and
transmitted to You via e-mail together with accompanying instructions for filing
the application directly with the U.S. Copyright Office. Once the copyright
application and filing instructions are transmitted, IX-ONE.COM's and c-Site's
Services come to an end. Thereafter, IX-ONE.COM will not provide any additional
services or provide any customer support in connection with those copyright
applications for which You are responsible for filing with the U.S. Copyright
Office.
Custom Filing Services are also available for purchase. With Custom Filing, You
complete the online copyright registration application form and submit it to
IX-ONE.COM for review, processing and filing. IX-ONE.COM will prepare and file
copyright forms with the U.S. Copyright Office based on information You provide.
IX-ONE.COM will also submit to the U.S. Copyright Office the Deposit You send to
IX-ONE.COM. You acknowledge that the Deposit may need to be converted from an
electronic version to a physical version by IX-ONE.COM. IX-ONE.COM acts as a
third party service provider in the filing process and assumes no liability for
the materials You submit, including, but not limited to, the completeness or
correctness of the Deposit, or its suitability for copyright. IX-ONE.COM will
submit the Deposit AS IS, and will not be responsible for any errors, omissions,
or defects.
IX-ONE.COM reserves the right to reject any and all copyright registration
applications and/or Deposits for any reason whatsoever. In the event IX-ONE.COM
rejects your filing or is unable to provide Services to You, You agree that Your
only remedy will be a refund of the fee You paid for the Services. Under no
circumstances will you be entitled to recover the federal filing fee or any
damages in excess of the fees You paid for the Services.
IX-ONE.COM will only keep copies of files You submit for the amount of time
required to review and prepare the application (and in the case of Custom
Filing, file the application, with the U.S. Copyright Office). For files You
submit electronically, You release IX-ONE.COM from any responsibility or
liability for technical difficulties such as system crashes, unexpected
downtime, or other circumstances which may result in lost or damaged materials.
It is also Your responsibility to ensure that Your Deposit meets Copyright
Office requirements, which are set forth within the c-Site web site.
IX-ONE.COM makes no guarantees as to the time needed to review, process, prepare
and/or file copyright applications. Your careful attention to the details of
the filing process will reduce the amount of time required for Your filing. You
agree that the filing date will be the date the U.S. Copyright Office receives
the Deposit, application and filing fee in acceptable form, and not the date you
submit Your filing to IX-ONE.COM.
|
2. LIMITATIONS ON SERVICE
|
|
IX-ONE.COM is a service provider, not a law firm. Therefore, IX-ONE.COM will not
proofread or conduct legal research or other such inquiries to ensure that Your
work is suitable for copyright registration. You specifically represent and
warrant that You are the rightful owner of the Deposit and that You are not
infringing the legal or other rights of a third party by engaging IX-ONE.COM's
Services hereunder.
IX-ONE.COM does not and cannot represent, warrant, guarantee, promise or
otherwise assure You that:
- Your copyright filing will be accepted by the
U.S. Copyright Office;
- Your copyright application will be approved by the
U.S. Copyright Office;
- the Copyright Office will not have questions or
concerns regarding either Your application or Deposit;
- issues arising in
connection with Your application will be resolved to Your or the Copyright
Office's satisfaction;
- support or customer service will be available for any
and all inquiries related to Your application. Furthermore, IX-ONE.COM does not
and cannot guarantee that filing and registering Your copyrighted work will
cause You to be successful in any future litigation concerning Your work or Your
intellectual property rights therein.

3. YOUR OBLIGATIONS

You agree to ensure that Your Deposit is free from errors, omissions, or defects
prior to submitting it to IX-ONE.COM. You understand and agree that all fees
paid to IX-ONE.COM, including the federal filing fee, will not be refunded unless

Copyright Office will be considered new filings and will require full payment of
all applicable fees.
You agree that none of the materials You submit to IX-ONE.COM for filing with the
U.S. Copyright Office will contain harmful or morally objectionable content. By

personally identifiable information. IX-ONE.COM reserves the right to refuse to
file Your Deposit and any other materials for whatever reason, including any of
those listed above.

4. LICENSE; AGENCY
|
|
You grant IX-ONE.COM a license to use Your Deposit for the limited purpose of
reviewing, processing and/or filing it with the U.S. Copyright Office.
IX-ONE.COM will not use Your copyrighted materials for any other purpose unless
specifically requested to do so by You under separate written agreement.
If You purchase the Custom Filing Service, You hereby appoint IX-ONE.COM as Your
authorized agent for purposes of submitting Your Deposit and filing forms with
the U.S. Copyright Office. No other agency, partnership, joint venture,
employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created
by this Agreement.
