Client and eko are individually referred to herein as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

The term of each Subscription associated with this Agreement for any of the Services, shall be as specified in the applicable Order Form (“Subscription Term”). Except as otherwise specified in an Order Form, subscriptions for Services which are purchased for a fee will automatically renew for an additional Subscription Term, unless either Party gives the other notice of non-renewal at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the applicable Subscription Term. eko reserves the right to increase the fees associated with any of the Services by any amount it deems necessary (in its sole judgment), but if a rate increase is planned, eko will provide notice of the same to you at least fifteen (15) days prior to the end of the applicable Subscription Term. Notwithstanding the foregoing, eko will abide by all applicable state laws in relation to the aforementioned, including those laws and permissions regarding automatic renewals. Furthermore, given the nature of digital content, eko does not offer refunds or credits unless a refund is legally required in accordance with the applicable consumer protection state law in which you reside and use the Services, and only in the event the refund is warranted. eko will assess refund or credit requests on their merits but has sole discretion in determining whether a request shall be granted.

In addition to any other remedies it may have, either Party may also terminate the Agreement and any license granted herein upon thirty (30) days’ written notice, if the other Party materially breaches any of the terms or conditions of the Agreement and such breach is not cured within such period.

Payment. You will provide eko with credit card or bank account information (or you will be billed via invoicing if you are prequalified to make payment in such manner). If you provide credit card or bank account information to eko, you authorize eko to charge such credit card or withdraw via ACH from such bank account any and all fees for all Services listed in an Order Form for the initial Subscription Term and for any renewal Subscription Terms that may apply.

You are responsible for providing accurate billing and contact information to eko and notifying eko of any changes to such information.

Suspension of Service and Acceleration. If any amount of fees (as provided in an applicable Order Form) are owed by you under this or any other agreement for any of the Services is thirty (30) days or more overdue, you hereby authorize eko to charge your credit card or bank account for the outstanding balance that is due. If the outstanding balance that has been due for thirty (30) days of more cannot be collected by eko after two (2) successive attempts, eko has the option to, without limiting its other rights and remedies, accelerate all unpaid fee obligations under the Subscription so that all such fees become immediately due and payable. Moreover, eko reserves the right to suspend the Services until such amounts are paid in full.

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless eko, including eko’s Representatives from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debts, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s fees) arising from: (i) your use, misuse of, inability to use and/or activities in connection with the Site and/or Services and/or Tools; (ii) your violation of any of these terms; (iii) your violation of any third party rights, including without limitation any intellectual property rights or privacy right of such third party, including a third party claim, suit or proceeding that use of the Personal Information (as such term is defined in our Privacy Policy) within the scope of these terms infringes any privacy right of a third party), in connection with your use of the Site and/or Services; and (iv) any damage of any sort, whether direct, indirect, special or consequential, you may cause to any third party with relation to the Site and/or Services. It is hereby clarified that this defense and indemnification obligation will survive these Terms.

Without derogating from the foregoing, we reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter which is subject to indemnification by you, which will not excuse your indemnity obligations hereunder and in which event you will fully cooperate with us in asserting any available defense. You agree not to settle any matter subject to indemnification by you without first obtaining our prior express written approval.

Audit Rights. eko (or a third party hired by eko for such purpose) shall have the right, at any time, to inspect and audit all accounts, records and Client or Authorized User Data, to determine compliance with the terms contained herein. The cost of such audit shall be borne by eko unless the audit uncovers that the Client or Authorized User has materially breached this Agreement, and then Client shall be responsible for reimbursement of all reasonable costs and expenses of such audit.

24. Dispute Resolution. In connection with any dispute between the Parties arising from this Agreement, the Parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute by utilizing the procedure specified in this Section 24 herein.

(a) Negotiation by Individuals:  To commence resolution of a dispute, either Party may send written notice (“Notice”) to the other Party containing a concise summary of the dispute and requesting negotiations.  Within seven (7) days following receipt of such Notice by the other Party, each Party will make such investigation as each deems appropriate and will promptly, but in no event later than thirty (30) days from the date of the Notice, communicate to attempt to resolve the dispute.  If the dispute has not been resolved within forty-five (45) days of the first communication between the Parties in furtherance of resolving the dispute, arbitration proceedings may be commenced by either Party, as set forth immediately below in Section 24(b) below.


(b) Arbitration:  Arbitration shall commence upon written notice (“Arbitration Notice”) by either Party to the other and to the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”).  Such dispute shall be conducted before a single arbitrator.  Such arbitrator shall be a lawyer knowledgeable and experienced in the field of software licensing, and shall not be affiliated with either Party, or otherwise have any current or previous relationship or association with either Party.  Each Party shall designate in writing a list of potential arbitrators within thirty (30) days of the Arbitration Notice.  The Parties consent to use any arbitrator whose name appears on both Parties’ list of potential arbitrators, subject to the arbitrator’s availability. 

If no arbitrator appears on both Parties’ lists, or if the Parties cannot agree on an arbitrator within sixty (60) days of the Arbitration Notice, the arbitrator shall be selected by the office of the JAMS in New York County, New York or, if such office does not exist, the JAMS office nearest to New York, New York.  After an arbitrator is selected, the Parties shall promptly consult with the arbitrator to determine the details of the arbitration process including a schedule and the dates and location of the arbitration hearing. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and legally binding on both Parties and judgment may be entered thereon.  Unless provided otherwise herein, the arbitration shall be governed by the applicable JAMS rules, including the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, applicable at the time of the Notice of Arbitration. 

Each Party shall be responsible for its share of the costs of the arbitration hearing as specified in the JAMS rules.  In the event a Party fails to participate in the arbitration after having been provided Notice, unsuccessfully challenges the arbitrator's decision, or fails to comply with the arbitrator's decision, the other Party is entitled to costs of the associated litigation, including reasonable attorney's fees for having to compel arbitration or defend or enforce the award.

25. General.  This Agreement and all its part are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without reference to its principles of conflicts of laws.  Each Party hereby expressly consents to the personal jurisdiction of either the New York state courts sitting in New York County or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.  The U.N. Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply. eko may freely assign this Agreement, without consent. 

Client or Authorized User may not assign this Agreement.  If any portion hereof is found to be void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the Services and supersedes all prior agreements, proposals, representations and undertakings between the Parties in relation to the subject matter hereof (whether written or oral) and may not be modified or amended by Client or Authorized User without the prior written consent of eko.

The Parties are independent contractors. This Agreement does not create a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary, or employment relationship between the Parties. No waiver of any rights arising under this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing and signed by a duly authorized signatory of the Party against whom the waiver is to be enforced. No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy.

  • In addition, during your use of the Eko Studio, you may choose to upload to the platform and create certain content such as videos, texts, photographs, artwork, tags and other metadata. Please note: if such content includes information about others, you are fully and solely responsible for providing all necessary information notices to affected data subjects or consumers and obtaining the required consents under applicable privacy law from data subjects or consumers for the use, processing, sub-processing and storing by Eko of their information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

We automatically collect information when you access, use, and browse the Services. The categories of information we automatically collect include:

  • Activity Information. We automatically collect information about your activities on the Site, the App and/or the Video Platform, such as the features you use, pages you visit, emails, ads and Videos you view, interactions with Videos, time of day you browse, and your referring and exiting pages.

  • Technical Information. We automatically collect technical information such as the type and version of your device and its operating system, the type of browser, screen resolution, device browser and keyboard language, and device identifiers, such as IP address or Ad ID.

  • Location Data. We automatically collect location which may be imprecise (such as location derived from an IP address or data that indicates a city or postal code level) or, with your consent, precise (such as latitude/longitude data).

Please note we collect information automatically by using certain tracking technologies such as:

  • Cookies, which are small data files stored on your device that act as a unique tag to identify your browser. We use two types of cookies: session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies make it easier for you to navigate our website and expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies help with personalizing your experience, remembering your preferences, and supporting security features. Additionally, persistent cookies allow us to bring you advertising. Persistent cookies may remain on your device for extended periods of time, and generally may be controlled through your browser settings. Cookies are further detailed under our Cookie Policy.

  • Log Files, which are files that record events that occur in connection with your use of the Services.

  • Pixels (also known as web beacons), which is code embedded in a website, video, email, or advertisement that sends information about your use to a server. There are various types of pixels, including image pixels (which are small graphic images) and JavaScript pixels (which contains JavaScript code). When you access a website, video, email, or advertisement that contains a pixel, the pixel may permit us or a separate entity to drop or read cookies on your browser. Pixels are used in combination with cookies to track activity by a particular browser on a particular device. We may incorporate pixels that allow us to track our conversions, bring you advertising, and provide you with additional functionality.

  • App Technologies, which are technologies included in our app that are not browser-based like cookies and cannot be controlled by browser settings. For example, our App may include third party SDKs, which is code that send information about your use to a server. These SDKs allow us to track our conversions, bring you advertising both on and off the Services, and provide you with additional functionality.

  • Location-Identifying Technologies, which are technologies used to collect your location. For example, GPS, WiFi, and Bluetooth may be used to collect precise location data when you consent to precise location tracking through our app. Location data may be used for purposes such as verifying your device’s location and delivering or restricting relevant content and advertising based on that location.

For further information on how we use tracking technologies for analytics and advertising, and your rights and choices regarding them, see the “Analytics and Advertising” and “Your Rights and Choices” sections below.

5. Other parties

We offer parts of our Services through websites, platforms, and services operated and controlled by other parties. In addition, we integrate technologies operated or controlled by other parties into parts of our Services.

Some examples include:

  • Links. Certain links provided in the Site and App permit users to leave our Site and App and enter non-Eko sites or use non-Eko services. Most of such linked sites and services provide legal documents, including terms of use and privacy policies governing the use thereof. It is always advisable to read such documents carefully before using those sites and services in order to know what kind of information about you is collected.

  • Video Platform. Unless explicitly stated otherwise by Eko, any information collected by us through the Video Platform, including any associated code or SDK operated by Eko, is subject to this Privacy Policy. However, other parties may use the Video Platform in their own websites or apps, and those parties may independent collect information about you. Such collection of information is governed by their own policies.

  • Liking, Sharing, and Logging-In. We may embed a third party pixel or SDK on our Services that allows you to “like” or “share” content on, or log-in to your account through social media. If you visit a page that contains such integration, we may receive information from the social network that you have authorized to share with us. Please note that the social network may independently collect information about you through the integration.

  • Brand Pages. We may offer our content through social media. Any information you provide to us when you engage with our content (such as through our brand page or via our chatbot) is treated in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Also, if you publicly reference our Services on social media (e.g., by using a hashtag associated with Eko in a tweet or post), we may use your reference on or in connection with our Services.

Please note that when you interact with other parties, including when you leave our Services, those parties may independently collect information about you and solicit information from you. The information collected and stored by those parties remains subject to their own policies and practices, including what information they share with us, your rights and choices on their services and devices, and whether they store information in the U.S., Israel, or elsewhere. We encourage you to their terms of use and privacy policies to understand their privacy practices.

6. Analytics and advertising

We use analytics services, such as those offered by Google, Snowplow and Appsflyer, to help us understand how users access and use the Services. In addition, we work with agencies, advertisers, ad networks, and other parties, such as Facebook and Google, to place ads about our products and services on other websites and services.

As part of this process, we may incorporate tracking technologies from us and our vendors and other parties into our own Services (including our website and emails) as well as into our ads displayed on other websites and services. These tracking technologies may collect data across time and services for purposes of measuring conversions or actions you take, associating the various devices you use, and serving ads and/or other content targeted to your interests (“Interest-based Advertising”). For instance, we incorporate pixels and SDKs from Facebook and Google on the Services, and may share information with them for these purposes as well as to provide you with other functionality.

We also use audience matching services (which is a type of Interest-Based Advertising) to reach people (or people similar to people) who have visited our Services or are identified in one or more of our databases (“Matched Ads”). This is done by us sharing a list of hashed emails with an ad partner or incorporating a pixel or SDK from an ad partner into our own Services, and the ad partner matching common factors between our data and their data or other datasets. For instance, we use Facebook Custom Audiences to serve ads to our players on Facebook and Facebook Lookalike Audiences to serve ads to users on Facebook similar to our players.

As discussed above, vendors and other parties may act as our service providers, or in certain contexts, independently decide how to process your information. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with and consult their privacy policies and terms of use. For further information on the types of tracking technologies used and your rights and choices, please see the “Information we collect automatically” section above and the “Your Rights and Choices” section below.

7. Your rights and choices

7.1 Account information

You may have certain choices with respect to information in your Eko account. For example, you can update or remove the information you have provided in your profile, or delete your account. We may require additional information from you to allow us to confirm your identity. Please note that even if you remove information or delete your account, we will retain and use information about you as necessary to comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

7.2 Tracking technology choices

  • Cookies and pixels. Most browsers accept cookies by default. You can instruct your browser, by changing its settings, to decline or delete cookies. If you use multiple browsers on your device, you will need to instruct each browser separately. Your ability to limit cookies is subject to your browser settings and limitations. For more information on cookies and how to limit the use of cookies, please refer to our Cookie Policy.

  • Do Not Track. Your browser settings may allow you to automatically transmit a “Do Not Track” signal to online services you visit. Note, however, there is no industry consensus as to what site and app operators should do with regard to these signals. Accordingly, unless and until the law is interpreted to require us to do so, we do not monitor or take action with respect to “Do Not Track” signals. For more information on “Do Not Track,” visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

  • App and location technologies. You can stop all collection of information via an app by uninstalling the app. You can also reset your device Ad Id at any time through your device settings, which is designed to allow you to limit the use of information collected about you. You can stop all collection of precise location data through an app by uninstalling the app or withdrawing your consent through your device settings.

Please be aware that if you disable or remove tracking technologies some parts of the Services may not function correctly.

7.3 Analytics and interest-based advertising

You may opt out of the use of certain information collected by Google Analytics at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout and by Google Analytics for Display Advertising or the Google Display Network at https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb.

The companies we work with to provide you with targeted ads are required by us to give you the choice to opt out of receiving targeted ads. Most of these companies are participants of the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) and/or the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). To learn more about the targeted ads provided by these companies, and how to opt out of receiving certain targeted ads from them, please visit (i) for website targeted ads from DAA participantshttps://www.aboutads.info/choices; (ii) for app targeted ads from DAA participantshttps://www.aboutads.info/appchoices; and (iii) for targeted ads from NAI participantshttps://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. Opting out only means that the selected participants should no longer deliver certain targeted ads to you, but does not mean you will no longer receive any targeted content and/or ads (e.g., in connection with the participants’ other customers or from other technology services).

To limit targeted advertising in our Apps, visit your device settings and: (i) reset your Advertising Identifier; and (2) turn off “Ad Personalization” (Android) or turn on “Limit Ad Tracking” (iOS).

To opt out of us sharing your hashed email address for Matched Ads, please contact us at privacy@eko.com and specify that you wish to opt out of Matched Ads. We will remove your email address from any subsequent lists shared with ad partners for purposes of Matched Ads.

Please note that if you opt out using any of these methods, the opt out will only apply to the specific browser or device from which you opt out. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any opt out options or programs, or the accuracy of any other entities’ statements regarding their opt out options or programs.

7.4 Communications

  • E-mails. You can opt-out of receiving promotional emails from us at any time by following the instructions as provided in emails to click on the unsubscribe link, or emailing us at privacy@eko.com with the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the subject field of the email.

Please note that your opt out is limited to the email address and device used and will not affect subsequent subscriptions.

8. Data transfer

Please be aware the information collected through the Services may be transferred to, and stored on, servers which may be located in countries outside of your jurisdiction and in a country that is not considered to offer an adequate level of protection under your local laws. Your use of the Services or provision of any information therefore constitutes your consent to the transfer to and from, processing, usage, sharing, and storage of information about you in the U.S., Israel, and other jurisdictions as set out in this Privacy Policy.
