Proprietary Rights

Code and Content

You agree to comply with the license and restrictions applicable to each item of Code or Content you post, copy, access, or use. You agree that all the intellectual property on the Orbius Platform, other than the Content you provide, is owned by Orbius or the applicable User(s). Except as expressly permitted under these Terms, you agree not to:

1.     Modify, distribute, or create derivative works on the Orbius Platform.

2.     Run, rent, lease, loan, or sell access to the Orbius Platform.

3.     Decompile, reverse engineer, or copy the Orbius Platform or any Orb.

Trademarks

Orbius Inc., Orbius, Orbs and other related graphics, our logo and sub-logos, Orbius marks, and trade names used on Orbius are the trademarks of Orbius, Inc. and may not be used without permission. Other trademarks and trade names that may appear on Orbius are the property of their respective owners.

Accounts, Passwords, and Security

You must be a registered User to create an Orb on the Orbius Platform. Orbs and Orb Creators, in turn, determine whether Users need to be registered to contribute Content in that Orb. That is up to the discretion of the Orb Owner(s).  As a User, you are responsible for keeping your password secure. Names of Orbs and Platform IDs are non-transferable. You will be solely responsible and liable for any activity that occurs under your own personal ID.

 

Content Code of Conduct and Interaction

You agree to comply with the license and restrictions applicable to each item of Code or Content you post, copy, access, or use.

Content from other Users or advertisers is made available to you through Orbs and the Orbius Platform. Because Orbius does not control such Content, you agree that Orbius is not responsible for any such Content, including advertising and information about third party products or services.

Your interactions with other Users on the Orbius Platform, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and the User. Like with any web-based interaction, we suggest that you use caution and good judgment.

You agree that Orbius is not responsible for any loss or damage incurred as the result of any such dealings or with respect to any other User's use or disclosure of your Personal Data (as defined in the Privacy Policy). If there is a dispute between you and any third party (including any User), Orbius is under no obligation to become involved.

You release Orbius, its officers, employees, agents and successors from claims, demands and damages of every kind or nature arising out of or related to: (i) any disputes with other Users, and/or (ii) the Orbius Platform.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

 

Acceptable Use and Conduct

Member Content Code of Conduct

Orbius is a social media platform that enables companies, brands, associations, groups and individuals to connect with word of mouth techniques. We want your Orb (community) to be a place where people respect the rights and feelings of others, including third party intellectual property rights. Therefore, we have established certain rules for using Orbius-based Communities and for posting messages, photos, video and other content ("Content") on Orbius, which rules are set forth in this Agreement and this User Code of Conduct.

WHEN MEMBERS USE ORBIUS, YOU ARE AGREEING TO ABIDE BY THE MEMBER CODE OF CONDUCT AND THE OTHER RULES SET FORTH IN OUR TERMS OF USE. FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THIS CODE OF CONDUCT AND THE TERMS OF USE MAY RESULT, AMONG OTHER THINGS, IN TERMINATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT AND THE DELETION OF CONTENT THAT YOU HAVE POSTED, WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE, AS DETERMINED BY CLIENT OR ORBIUS IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION.

Third-Party Content

Orbius allows Members to link to, upload and share User Generated Content with your Members and associates, such as photographs and videos from your computer, camera, webcam or mobile phone or other means. This means that you may post and share original photographs and video that are of a personal nature that: (i) are of you or your Members, (ii) are taken by you or your Members, or (iii) are original art or animation created by you or your connected Members. It is not intended as a place for you to post third-party copyrighted content, such as the latest episode of a popular TV show or your favorite music video. In addition, we expect our Members to use good judgment and respect the copyrights and other intellectual property rights of others. Therefore, in using Orbius, you may not:

• upload or share any photographs, videos or other Content other than original works that are created by you or another Member
• post or share any Content that infringes upon or violates the copyright, trademarks or other rights of any third party
• attempt to circumvent any content filtering techniques we may employ

Inappropriate Content

While we believe Members should be able to express themselves and their point of view, certain kinds of speech simply do not belong in our communities. Therefore, you may not post or share Content that:

• is obscene, pornographic or sexually explicit
• depicts graphic or gratuitous violence
• makes threats of any kind or that intimidates, harasses, or bullies anyone
• is derogatory, demeaning, malicious, defamatory, abusive, offensive or hateful

If you are an Orb Owner, you agree to undertake the responsibility to monitor for such content and to take appropriate action.

Orbius reserves the right to suspend, and eventually terminate, your use of the Platform without notice if it has any reasonable cause that you have posted or failed to monitor your Orb for Inappropriate Content.

 

Unlawful or Harmful Content or Conduct

Although as a social media community platform service provider, we are not responsible for the conduct of our Members, we want the Orbius Platform to be a safe place on the internet. Therefore, in using Orbius Communities, you may not:

• violate any local, state, national or international law or post any Content that would encourage or provide instructions for a criminal offense
• impersonate any person or entity or otherwise misrepresent yourself, your age or your affiliation with any person or entity
• use Community to send or make available any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, solicitations, promotional materials, "junk mail," "spam," "chain letters," "pyramid schemes," or any other form of solicitation
• post or share any personally identifiable or private information of any third party
• solicit passwords or personal information from anyone, including those under 18
• use information or content you obtained on any Orbius Community website in any manner not authorized by the Orbius Code of Conduct or Terms of Use
• post any material that contains software viruses or any other computer code, files or programs designed to interrupt, destroy or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment
• register for more than one account or use or attempt to use another's account, service or system without authorization or create a false identity on the Service or the Site
• engage in any predatory or stalking conduct

This Content Code of Conduct is subject to change at any time at Orbius’ sole discretion.

Recent Changes to the Orbius Terms of Service

June 1st, 2008:

Initial Privacy Policy at Launch

Orbius User Privacy Policy

Last Update: March 21^st, 2008

On Orbius, the term Orb is used to refer to a Community.

This document outlines the types of personal and Orb information that are received, collected and stored when you use Orbius. It describes how such information is used and accessed, and the steps we take to safeguard the information.

We hope this will help you make an informed decision about sharing personal information within Orbius.

If you do not agree to all these terms and conditions, please do not provide us with any information and do not use Orbius or join any Orb on Orbius.

This Privacy Policy is incorporated into, and part of, the Orbius User Terms of Service, which governs your use of Orbius in general. By visiting and signing up to use Orbius, providing personal information, and/or using the Service, you signify your agreement to all of the terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy. Any capitalized term not defined in this Privacy Policy has the meaning as described in the Orbius User Terms of Service.

 

All Users and Orb Owners that create Orbs on the Orbius Platform are required to meet the terms of this Privacy Policy. However, we suggest you to be careful and use caution when providing Personal Data to Communities on Orbius. Unfortunately, there is no means we can be responsible for the actions of other Users or by Owners of Orbs created on Orbius.

 

By registering on or using Orbius, you agree

1.     to comply with all terms and conditions of this Privacy Policy,

2.     that Orbius and any User may process (i.e., collect, use, etc.) your Personal Data as described in this Privacy Policy or the Terms of Service, and

3.     that Personal Data may be processed by Orbius or User(s) in the country where it was collected as well as other countries (including the United States) where laws regarding processing of Personal Data may be less stringent.

Minors:  In compliance with the Federal Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998 (COPPA), Orbius does not collect or maintain information on the Orbius Platform from users whom we actually know to be under 13 years of age, and no part of our Service is structured to attract anyone under 13. Those persons under the age of 13 are prohibited from registering on the Orbius.

Collection of User Information

Personally Identifiable User Information

Once you register with Orbius and sign in to the Orbius Platform, you are not anonymous to Orbius.

 

When registering on Orbius, you provide Personal Data, which includes your email, a User- chosen password, name, gender, birth date, country, city, state and postal code of residence. Your Birth Date will never be displayed on Orbius. It is used only for age confirmation and to display your age decade bracket. You agree to provide your birth date truthfully for the purpose of age confirmation.

 

To combat online fraud, Orbius may also record your IP address when you submit your information.

 

In addition, if you choose to purchase premium services on Orbius, you provide necessary information to process your credit card payment, including your billing address. When you use the Orbius Contact List feature, you also provide contact information of other people (“Contact List”) to view.

 

In an effort to support group-specific as well as location-based communities, Orbius may validate the domain from which your email address originates (e.g., gmail.com or hotmail.com).

You can decline to share such Personal Data with us by not registering on Orbius.

 

Cookies and Passive Data Collection

Orbius automatically receives and records information on our server logs from your browser, including your IP address, Orbius cookie information, and the page you request. Some of these may be available to Orb owners when you interact with their Orbs.

 

Users should be aware that other websites you visited before using Orbius might place personally identifiable information within a User's URL during a visit to their website, and Orbius has no control over such actions by these websites. Accordingly, some of this information may be logged by a subsequent website that collects URL information.

Content and Use of Orbs on Orbius

When you post Content (or send messages) in any Orb on Orbius that enable direct sharing of information with other Users and visitors, other Users and visitors will have access to any Personal Data in such Content. The Orbius Platform keeps track of Content that you have uploaded to an Orb on Orbius. Such information, displayed with your Orbius Profile and photo, if you uploaded one, is available to Users and visitors to Orbius.  In addition, Orbius enables other Users to invite you to use or join Orbs on Orbius.

 

Because you may voluntarily disclose any Personal Data on Orbius, you should be careful about the information you choose to disclose. Orbius does not control that disclosure, and is not liable in any way for anyone's use or misuse of the information in the disclosure. Use proper caution and judgment. When you suspect any possible misuse or if an Orb Owner fails to comply with the User Privacy Policy, do not disclose any personal information and report the alleged abuse to Orbius as soon as possible.

 

Orb owners that ask for your email address or other personal information, even if they are not displayed, will specifically ask you for it as a required field. If you supply such information, the Orb Owner has full control, including ability to export the information.

Copyright Content.

If you post any Copyright Content on Orbius, you attest that you legally have the appropriate rights to post such content. You also acknowledge that such content can be used and controlled by other Users or Orb Owners as above.

Deleting Your Information, Content, Comments and Postings.

You may delete any of the Personal Profile Information you control at any time. You may also delete any information in your member area of any Orb you have joined. You may delete any postings other users make on your Personal Profile or your member profile in an Orb.

 

However, any other comments or postings you have made in the Orb or in Personal Profile sections of other Users will remain in the system. Such comments and postings are under the control of the Orb Owners and Users. You may send a request to them to have those comments and postings removed  from the areas they control, but they are under no obligations to comply.

 

Please do not make any comments or postings in areas that you don’t control that you might have any concern as a permanent record.

 

Also, some of your content may remain in our permanent archive and temporary backup storage system even when they are no longer visible to users on Orbius.

 

 

Use of Information

Orbius uses any information voluntarily given by our Users internally to guide our product development, to provide interactive or personalized elements to users or to better provide content based on the interests of our users.

Orbius creates aggregate reports on user demographics, Orb membership, and traffic patterns for advertisers, sponsors and partners. This allows our sponsors to advertise more effectively, and allows our users to receive advertisements that are more pertinent to their interests. This is essential to keeping our service free.

We will not disclose any information about any individual user except to comply with applicable law or valid legal process or to protect the personal safety of our users or the public.
