Last Updated: 01-05-2025
Welcome to visionplatform.ai. These Terms of Service (“Terms”) set out the conditions under which you may access and use the products and services offered by visionplatform.ai B.V. (“visionplatform.ai,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), including our cloud platform, application-programming interfaces (APIs), AI model training and deployment tools, and any other features or offerings we make available (collectively, the “Services”). By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to them, you must not access or use the Services.
1. Definitions
- "visionplatform.ai" refers to visionplatform.ai B.V., a Besloten Vennootschap incorporated in the Netherlands, with its principal place of business at Marconistraat 16, 3029 AK Rotterdam.
- "User" means any individual or legal entity that registers for, accesses, or otherwise makes use of the Services.
- "Agreement" (or “Contract”) consists of these Terms together with any Order Confirmation(s), the Shared Responsibility Addendum, and any separately executed written agreement between you and visionplatform.ai, which collectively constitute a binding agreement between you, as the Customer, and us.
- "Customer" refers to the legal entity on whose behalf you enter into the Contract. If an individual sets up the Services in a personal capacity with no organizational affiliation, that individual is the Customer. When you register using an email address associated with a corporate domain, the corresponding organization is deemed the Customer, and it may modify or reassign user roles (including yours).
- "Customer Data" refers to all video streams, images, metadata, and related information that you submit to or process through the Services.
- "Output" means the results generated by the Services based on Customer Data, including detections, alerts, analytics, reports, and any other output provided by the Services.
- "Subscription Plan" refers to the specific plan that a User selects, which dictates the scope, features, and fees associated with their access to the Services.
- "Confidential Information" includes all information disclosed by one party to the other, whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and circumstances of disclosure.
2. Acceptance of Terms
By registering for, accessing, or using the Services, you affirm that you have read, understand, and agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, our Data Processing Addendum (DPA), our Acceptable Use Policy, our Responsible AI Policy, and our Shared Responsibility Addendum. If you are using the Services on behalf of a company (Customer) or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, in which case "you" and "your" will refer to that entity.
3. Changes to Terms
visionplatform.ai may update these Terms at any time. Any changes will become effective immediately upon posting the updated Terms on our website. We will notify you about significant changes. Your continued use of the Services following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of such changes. If you do not accept the new Terms, you must stop using the Services immediately.
