7. Proprietary Materials; Licenses
7.1 Proprietary Materials. The Website is owned and operated by BizSwoop. The visual interfaces, graphics, design, compilation, information, computer code (including source code or object code), software, services, content, videos and exercises, and all other elements of the Website (the “Website Materials”) are protected by United States and international copyright, patent, and trademark laws, international conventions, and other applicable laws governing intellectual property and proprietary rights. Except for any User Content provided and owned by Users and except as otherwise set forth in this Section 7, all Website Materials, and all trademarks, service marks, and trade names, contained on or available through the Website are owned by or licensed to BizSwoop, and BizSwoop reserves all rights therein and thereto not expressly granted by these Terms.
7.2 Licensed Content. BizSwoop may make available on the Website certain videos, exercises, and related supplementary materials that are owned by BizSwoop or its third-party licensors (the “Licensed Content”). BizSwoop grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the Licensed Content as made available on the Website by BizSwoop solely for your personal, non-commercial purposes. Unless expressly indicated on the Website that a particular item of Licensed Content is made available to Users under alternate license terms, you may not download, distribute, sell, lease, modify, or otherwise provide access to the Licensed Content to any third party.
(a) Alternate Licenses. In certain cases, BizSwoop or its licensors may make available Licensed Content under alternate license terms, such as a variant of the Creative Commons License (as defined below) (each, an “Alternate License”). Where expressly indicated as such on the Website, and subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms, the applicable Licensed Content is licensed to You under the terms of the Alternate License. By using, downloading, or otherwise accessing such Licensed Content, You agree to comply fully with all the terms and conditions of such Alternate License.
(b) Creative Commons License. Unless expressly otherwise identified on the Website with respect to a particular item of Licensed Content, any reference to the “Creative Commons”, “CC” or similarly-phrased license shall be deemed to be a reference to the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United States License (available at https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/us/) (the “Creative Commons License”).
7.3 Licensed Code. BizSwoop may make available, or allow Users to create and make available, on or through the Website certain user-readable source code in connection with the “Computer Science” modules or exercises available on the Website (the “Licensed Code”). Unless otherwise indicated, all Licensed Code is the property of BizSwoop or third-party licensors and, subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms, is licensed to You under the terms of the MIT License. By downloading or otherwise accessing such Licensed Code, You agree to comply with all the terms of the MIT License.
7.4 Non-Commercial Use. The Licensed Content and Licensed Code are intended for personal, non-commercial use only. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding the terms of any Alternate License for such Licensed Content, the Licensed Content may not be used, distributed or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose, commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, unless otherwise previously agreed in writing by BizSwoop.
(a) Impermissible Uses. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following are types of uses that BizSwoop expressly defines as falling outside of “non-commercial” use:
i. the sale or rental of (1) any part of the Licensed Content, (2) any derivative works based at least in part on the Licensed Content, or (3) any collective work that includes any part of the Licensed Content;
ii. providing training, support, or editorial services that use or reference the Licensed Content in exchange for a fee; and
iii. the sale of advertisements, sponsorships, or promotions placed on the Licensed Content, or any part thereof, or the sale of advertisements, sponsorships, or promotions on any website or blog containing any part of the Licensed Material, including without limitation any “pop-up advertisements”.
(b) Use Characterization. Whether a particular use of the Licensed Content is “non-commercial” depends on the use, not the user. Thus, a use of the Licensed Content that does not require that users pay fees and that does not provide an entity with a commercial advantage is “non-commercial,” even if this use is by a commercial entity. Conversely, any use that involves charging users in connection with their access to the Licensed Content is not “non-commercial,” even if this use is by a non-profit entity. As an example, a for-profit corporation’s use of the Licensed Content for internal professional development or training of employees is permitted, so long as the corporation charges no fees, directly or indirectly, for such use. Conversely, as another example, a non-profit entity’s use of the Licensed Content in connection with an fee-based training or program is NOT “non-commercial” and is not permitted.
