Terms of Service
Effective Date: July 1, 2023
These Terms of Service (these “Terms”) govern your use of the Bight website (the “Site”), the Bight video sharing service, and associated tools (collectively, the “Service”) made available by Bight, LLC. (“Bight”, "our", "us", or "we"). Your use of the Site and/or your registration to use the Service indicates that you agree on behalf of yourself or the entity that you represent (collectively, "you") to be bound by these Terms as well as the Bight Privacy Policy. Please read these Terms carefully before registering for or otherwise using the Bight Service.
I. Overview
Bight provides a video sharing service. See our Site for further details on the features of the various Bight Service offerings, which Bight will endeavor to improve and expand over time.
By registering for a Bight Starter, Bight Business, or Bight Plus account, you acknowledge that the account administrator of your organization has control of and access to Your Content (as defined below). Furthermore, you (1) agree to comply with your organization’s terms and policies with regard to your use of the Service; (2) acknowledge your organization’s ability to monitor, restrict or terminate your or other users’ access to Your Content; and (3) acknowledge your organization’s ownership of the Bight Starter, Bight Business or Bight Plus account.
II. Registration
Use of the Service requires that you register with Bight. When you register with Bight, you will be asked to disclose certain personal information, including your name and email address, and to set up a username and password, all of which will be subject to our Privacy Policy. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account and for keeping your password and log-in information secure. You agree that you (1) will monitor your account, (2) will not share your account or password with anyone, and (3) will notify Bight immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or password, or any other breach of security. You agree to provide us with true, accurate and complete information as requested in our registration process. You also agree to update such information promptly as necessary to keep it current and accurate.
III. Payment
If you register for Bight, Bight Business or Bight Plus (collectively, “Bight Premium”), you agree to pay all fees or charges to your account for the Service in accordance with the fees, charges and billing terms in effect at the time that each fee or charge is due and payable. Unless otherwise indicated in an order form, you must provide Bight with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) (“Payment Provider”) as a condition to signing up for the Bight Premium. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card account, and you must refer to that agreement and not these Terms to determine your rights and liabilities with respect to your Payment Provider. By providing Bight with your credit card number and associated payment information, you agree that Bight is authorized to verify information immediately, and subsequently invoice your account for all fees and charges due and payable to Bight hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Bight of any change in your billing address or the credit card used for payment hereunder. Bight reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods, either immediately upon posting on our Site or by e-mail delivery to your organization’s administrator(s).
Any attorney fees, court costs, or other costs incurred in collection of delinquent undisputed amounts shall be the responsibility of and paid for by you.
All fees for the Service are non-refundable. No contract will exist between you and Bight for the Service until Bight accepts your order by a confirmatory e-mail, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication.
You are responsible for any third-party fees that you may incur when using the Service.
IV. Changes to and Your Termination of the Service
You acknowledge and agree that Bight may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing the Service (or any features within the Service) to you or to users generally at Bight’s sole discretion, without prior notice to you (except that if you are a Bight Premium customer, Bight will notify you and not charge you for any Service that you have not received). You may stop using the Service at any time. You do not need to specifically inform Bight when you stop using the Service. You acknowledge and agree that if Bight disables access to your account, you may be prevented from accessing the Service, your account details or any files or other materials which is contained in your account.

Bight has the right to:
- Remove or refuse to post any of Your Content for any or no reason at our sole discretion.
- Take any action with respect to Your Content that we deem necessary or appropriate in our sole discretion, including if we believe that Your Content violates these Terms, infringes any intellectual property right or other right of any person or entity, threatens the personal safety of users of the Service or the public or could create liability for Bight.
- Take appropriate legal action, including without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Service or the Site.
- Terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the Service or the Site for any violation of these Terms.
Without limiting the foregoing, we have the right to fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity or other information of anyone posting any materials on or through the Service or the Site. YOU WAIVE AND HOLD HARMLESS BIGHT AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSEES AND SERVICE PROVIDERS FROM ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN BY ANY OF THE FOREGOING PARTIES DURING OR AS A RESULT OF ITS INVESTIGATIONS AND FROM ANY ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF INVESTIGATIONS BY EITHER SUCH PARTIES OR LAW ENFORCEMENT AUTHORITIES.
However, we do not undertake to review Content before it is posted via the Service, and we cannot ensure prompt removal of objectionable material after it has been posted. Accordingly, we assume no liability for any action or inaction regarding transmissions, communications or Content provided by any user or third party. We have no liability or responsibility to anyone for performance or nonperformance of the activities described in this section.

VIII. Intellectual Property Rights
Bight reserves all rights not specifically granted herein. You shall not modify any copyright notices, proprietary legends, any trademark and service mark attributions, any patent markings, and other indicia of ownership on the Content or other materials accessed through the Service. The delivery of, and license to, the Content and/or access to third party materials does not transfer to you any commercial or promotional use rights in the Content or any portion thereof. Any use of Content, or descriptions; any derivative use of this Site or its materials; and any use of data mining, robots, or similar data gathering and extraction tools is strictly prohibited. In no event shall the user frame any portion of the Site or any materials contained therein.
As between the parties, Bight owns and shall continue to own all right, title and interest in and to all aggregate and statistical information or analyses created and developed by Bight from performance and usage data generated through your use of the Site, Service or Software (collectively, “Aggregate Data”). Aggregate Data is de-identified so that you cannot be identified as the source within the Aggregate Data.
IX. Copyright Protection
The U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA") provides recourse to copyright owners who believe that their rights under the United States Copyright Act have been infringed by acts of third parties over the Internet. If you believe that any content uploaded or otherwise made available on the Service infringes upon any copyright which you own or control, you may notify us. In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, we have adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the accounts of users of the Service who are deemed to be repeat infringers. Bight may also at its sole discretion limit access to the Service or terminate the account of any user who infringes any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.
X. Data Processing Addendum
To the extent that Bight processes any personal data on your behalf in providing the Service that is subject to the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”), the terms of Bight's data processing addendum, shall apply and the parties agree to comply with such terms.
XI. Governing Law
Your use of the Service and these Terms shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Florida without reference to the choice of law or conflicts of law principles thereof, and all claims relating to or arising out of your use of the Service or these Terms, or the breach thereof, whether sounding in contract, tort or otherwise, shall likewise be governed by the laws of the State of Florida without reference to the choice of law or conflicts of law principles thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you represent an entity or institution subject to state law mandating that such state’s laws govern your use of the Services, Bight agrees to such governing state law.
