3.1 Types of Content.
Subject to Section 3.2 below, you acknowledge that all information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, video, messages, tags and other materials accessible through the Services, including all Production Data (collectively, “Content”) is the sole responsibility of the party from whom such Content originated. This means that you, and not Cinapse, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, e-mail, transmit or otherwise make available through the Services (“Your Content”), and that you and other Users of the Services, and not Cinapse, are similarly responsible for all Content that you and they make available through the Services (“User Content”).

You agree and understand that nothing herein shall create an employment relationship between you and Cinapse, and Cinapse shall not be responsible for the payment of wages owed to a user by a Production Company.

Certain Services may enable you to specify the level at which such Services restrict access to Content. You are solely responsible for applying the appropriate level of access to Content. If you do not choose, the system may default to its most permissive setting. You agree that Cinapse retains the right to create reasonable limits on Cinapse use and storage of Content, such as limits on file size, storage space, processing capacity, and similar limits described in the web pages accompanying the Services and as otherwise determined by Cinapse in its sole discretion.

Further, you acknowledge and agree that any and all knowledge and information received by viewing or receiving the Demo constitutes Cinapse Confidential Information (as defined below) pursuant to Section 10 of this Agreement.
4.3 Trademarks.
, “CINAPSE”, and other related graphics, logos, trademarks, service marks and trade names used on or in connection with Cinapse Properties are the trademarks of Cinapse and may not be used without permission in connection with any third-party products or services.

4.4 Other Content.
Except with respect to Your Content, you agree that you have no right or title in or to any Content or other data that appears on or in Cinapse Properties.
4.5 Data.
Cinapse does not claim ownership of Your Content or any Production Data. However, when you post or publish Your Content on or in any Services, you represent that you own or have all necessary rights to post or publish Your Content on or in the Services. Subject to any applicable account settings that you select, you grant Cinapse a fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive and fully sublicensable right (including any moral rights) and license to use, license, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publicly perform, and publicly display, Your Content and Production Data (in whole or in part) for the purposes of operating the Services and providing Cinapse Properties to you and to our other users. Please remember that other users of the Services may search for, see, use, modify and reproduce any of Your Content that you submit to any “public” area of the Services. Further, you acknowledge and agree that your profile picture is stored in a container that is “publicly” available and may be accessible to members of the public who have independently obtained such link. You agree that you, not Company, are responsible for all of Your Content. You may not post a photograph of another person without that person's permission. Cinapse's rights with respect to aggregated and anonymized data derived from Your Content and Production Data are set forth in Section 4.8. You agree that you, not Cinapse, are responsible for all of the Content that you make available on or in Cinapse Properties.
4.6 Feedback.
You agree that submission of any ideas, suggestions, documents, and/or proposals to Cinapse including but not limited to through its suggestion, feedback, wiki, forum or similar pages (“Feedback”) is at your own risk and that Cinapse has no obligations (including without limitation obligations of confidentiality) with respect to such Feedback. You represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to submit the Feedback. You hereby grant to Cinapse a fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, and fully sublicensable right and license to use, reproduce, perform, display, distribute, adapt, modify, re-format, create derivative works of, and otherwise commercially or non-commercially exploit in any manner, any and all Feedback, and to sublicense the foregoing rights, in connection with the operation and maintenance of Cinapse Properties and/or Cinapse' business.
4.7 Use of Production Name and Assets.
As a condition of using the Services, you grant Cinapse a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable license to use the name, title, and publicly released promotional materials of any production associated with your Account—including, without limitation, posters, trailers, key art, logos, still photographs, and synopsis text (collectively, “Production Materials”), for marketing, promotional, and business-development purposes. Such use may include, without limitation, placement on the Cinapse Platform, social media channels, press releases, product presentations, investor materials, trade show displays, or other private or public-facing communications. For the avoidance of doubt, Production Materials are limited to materials that have been publicly released or are otherwise publicly available. Cinapse will not use, disclose, or reference any confidential, proprietary, or non-public information about a production, including, without limitation, budgets, schedules, call sheets, crew lists, internal communications, unreleased creative materials, or any other information not intended for public distribution, for any marketing, promotional, or external purpose without the prior written consent of the applicable rights holder.
The use of Production Materials under this Section 4.7 serves to promote awareness of the Cinapse Platform, highlight the breadth of productions utilizing modern production management tools, and support the development of industry norms and standards around production technology. Such visibility benefits the production community as a whole, including individual users, production companies, studios, distributors, and the broader film and television industry, by demonstrating adoption of professional-grade tools and encouraging best practices in production management.
By creating a production on the Cinapse Platform or uploading any Production Materials, you represent and warrant that: (a) you have the authority to grant the foregoing license, whether by virtue of your own ownership of the Production Materials, or through authorization from the production company, studio, distributor, or other rights holder that owns or controls such materials; or (b) if you do not yet have such authority at the time the production is created on the Platform, you will obtain it promptly and prior to Cinapse’s first use of the applicable Production Materials. You further represent and warrant that Cinapse’s use of the Production Materials in accordance with this Section 4.7 will not infringe, misappropriate, or otherwise violate the intellectual property rights, publicity rights, or other proprietary rights of any third party, including any studio, production company, distributor, or other rights holder.
Cinapse may, from time to time, seek to feature a production in a more detailed format, such as a written or video case study, testimonial, or in-depth profile (“Case Study”). Any Case Study that references non-public information about a production or includes direct quotes, interviews, or detailed descriptions of a production’s workflows, processes, or results will require the separate prior written consent of the production owner, production company, studio, or other applicable rights holder before publication. Cinapse will provide the participating party with a reasonable opportunity to review and approve any such Case Study prior to its release. For the avoidance of doubt, a Case Study that relies solely on Production Materials (as defined above) and publicly available information does not require separate consent beyond the license granted in this Section 4.7.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Cinapse and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to any breach of the foregoing representations and warranties, including any claim by a studio, production company, distributor, or other third party that Cinapse’s use of the Production Materials was unauthorized.
4.8 Aggregated and Anonymized Data.
Cinapse may collect, compile, aggregate, and anonymize data derived from your use of the Services, including Production Data and other Content (collectively, “Aggregated Data”), for Cinapse’s business purposes. Aggregated Data may be used by Cinapse, without restriction, for purposes including, without limitation: (a) operating, improving, and optimizing the Services and Cinapse’s other products and offerings; (b) developing and publishing industry benchmarks, trend reports, analytics, and other statistical analyses relating to the film, television, and media production industry; (c) training, developing, and improving Cinapse’s proprietary machine learning models and algorithms (subject to Section 4.9 below); (d) conducting internal research and development; and (e) supporting Cinapse’s business development, investor reporting, and strategic planning activities.
Cinapse will not disclose Aggregated Data in any form that identifies or could reasonably be used to identify a specific production, Production Company, or individual user. All Aggregated Data shall be de-identified in accordance with industry-standard anonymization practices prior to any external use or disclosure. For the avoidance of doubt, Aggregated Data is not Your Content or Production Data and is owned exclusively by Cinapse.
4.9 Artificial Intelligence and Automated Features.
Cinapse may, from time to time, develop and make available features within the Services that utilize artificial intelligence, machine learning, or automated processing technologies, including AI-powered scheduling assistants, intelligent recommendations, and autonomous or semi-autonomous agents that may take actions within the Platform on behalf of or at the direction of a user (collectively, “AI Features”). AI Features are designed to assist users in managing production workflows and are provided as part of the Services. Cinapse will notify users when AI Features are made available and will provide documentation describing their functionality and any applicable limitations.
By using AI Features, you acknowledge that: (a) AI Features may process, analyze, and generate suggestions or take actions based on Your Content, Production Data, and other information within the Services; (b) AI Features are tools intended to assist, not replace, human judgment, and you are solely responsible for reviewing and approving any actions taken by or based on the output of AI Features; (c) Cinapse does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any output generated by AI Features; and (d) your use of AI Features is subject to these Terms, including all limitations of liability set forth herein.
Cinapse’s AI Features are powered exclusively by Cinapse’s proprietary models and infrastructure. Cinapse will not provide, transmit, or otherwise make available Your Content, Production Data, or any other user data to third-party artificial intelligence or machine learning providers—including, without limitation, OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Meta, or any other third-party model provider—for the purpose of training, fine-tuning, or otherwise improving such third party’s models or services. For the avoidance of doubt, this restriction applies to all user data processed through the Services, regardless of whether such data has been aggregated or anonymized. Cinapse may utilize third-party infrastructure providers (such as cloud computing platforms) to host and operate its proprietary AI models, provided that any such provider is contractually bound to use the data solely for the purpose of providing infrastructure services to Cinapse and is prohibited from using such data for its own model training or development purposes.
Cinapse retains all rights, title, and interest in and to its AI Features, including all underlying models, algorithms, and technology. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right, title, or interest in Cinapse’s AI technology, and you shall not reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the underlying models, weights, or training data of any AI Feature.
5. FEES AND PURCHASE TERMS.
5.1 Subscription Plans.
Cinapse offers the Services through the following subscription categories and tiers. Features, permissions, and pricing vary by tier and are subject to change at Cinapse's sole discretion. Current pricing and feature details are available at cinapse.io/pricing.
Personal Subscriptions. Personal subscriptions are purchased by individual users (or their business entities such as LLCs or sole proprietorships) for their own use of the platform.
(a) Starter. A free tier providing basic access to the platform for individual users.
(b) Professional. A paid tier providing enhanced features for individual professionals. Professional subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, as selected at the time of purchase) and auto-renew unless cancelled in accordance with Section 5.7. The individual subscriber (or the business entity on whose behalf the subscription is purchased) is responsible for payment of all applicable fees.
Production Subscriptions. Production subscriptions are purchased on a per-project basis and provide access to the platform for an entire production team. The contract term for a Production subscription begins on the date the subscription is activated and continues for the duration of the associated production project, as reasonably determined by the production owner (“Production Term”). Upon expiration of the Production Term, the subscription may be renewed for an additional term by mutual agreement, or individual users may revert to a Personal subscription tier.
(a) Independent. A production-level tier designed for independent and smaller-scale productions. The production owner or their designee is responsible for payment of the applicable subscription fee at the time the Production is created and the tier is selected.
(b) Studio. A production-level tier designed for larger-scale productions requiring advanced features, integrations, and support. The production owner or their designee is responsible for payment of the applicable subscription fee at the time the Production is created and the tier is selected.
Enterprise Subscriptions. For studios, networks, and organizations with custom requirements, Cinapse offers enterprise-level plans with tailored features, dedicated support, and negotiated pricing. Enterprise subscription terms are governed by a separate written agreement between the enterprise customer and Cinapse.
5.2 Billing Administration.
When a production owner or authorized representative upgrades a Production from a Personal subscription tier to a Production subscription tier (Independent or Studio), they shall designate a billing administrator (“Billing Admin”) who will be responsible for making payments for the applicable Production subscription. The Billing Admin may be required to provide Cinapse with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) (“Payment Provider”) as a condition of activating the Production subscription. The Billing Admin's Payment Provider agreement governs their use of the designated credit card, and they must refer to that agreement and not the Terms to determine their rights and liabilities. By providing Cinapse with credit card and associated payment information, the Billing Admin agrees that Cinapse is authorized to immediately invoice the Account for all fees and charges due and payable to Cinapse hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. The Billing Admin agrees to immediately notify Cinapse of any change in billing address or the credit card used for payment hereunder. For Personal subscriptions, the individual subscriber is responsible for payment. Cinapse reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods, either immediately upon posting on Cinapse Properties or by email delivery to you.
5.3 Professional Picture Lock Pricing.
Between June 1, 2026 and December 1, 2026 (the “Lock Window”), subscribers to the Professional tier may elect to lock their subscription rate at a discounted price for a period of two (2) years from the date of election (the “Locked Rate”). During the Locked Rate period, the following pause provisions apply:
(a) Locked Rate Subscribers. You may pause your Professional subscription for up to twelve (12) months in total during the two-year Locked Rate period. When you unpause, your subscription resumes at the Locked Rate. If you exceed twelve (12) months of cumulative pause time, Cinapse reserves the right to convert your subscription to the then-current standard Professional rate.
(b) Standard Rate Subscribers. Professional subscribers who do not elect the Locked Rate (or whose Lock Window has expired) may pause their subscription at any time for any duration. When you unpause, your subscription resumes at the then-current standard Professional rate.
Pausing a subscription suspends access to Professional-tier features for the duration of the pause. Pausing does not constitute cancellation, and your Account and associated data will be retained during the pause period subject to Cinapse's data retention policies.
5.4 Production Subscription Contract Period.
Each Production subscription (Independent or Studio) is contracted for the duration of the associated production project (the “Production Term”). The Production Term begins on the Service Commencement Date (defined as the date the production owner or Billing Admin activates the Production subscription and selects the applicable tier) and ends upon the earlier of: (a) the date the production owner notifies Cinapse that the production has wrapped and elects to terminate the subscription; or (b) the expiration of the term specified at the time of purchase, if any. Cinapse may offer the option to extend or renew a Production subscription at the then-current rate. Except as set forth in the Terms, all fees for Production subscriptions are non-refundable. No contract will exist between you and Cinapse for the Services until Cinapse accepts your order by a confirmatory e-mail, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication.
5.5 Shoot Days.
As used in these Terms, a “Shoot Day” means a day on which cameras are rolling for the purpose of filming the final finished product of the associated motion picture or television program. For the avoidance of doubt, Shoot Days do not include pre-production days, rehearsal days, or any other days on which principal photography is not actively taking place.
The number of Shoot Days purchased under a Production subscription (Independent or Studio) serves as the basis for determining the applicable subscription fee and reflects the anticipated scale of the associated production. Such Shoot Days do not define or otherwise limit the period during which Cinapse provides access to the Services. Access to the Services is provided on a continuous basis throughout the Production Term, commencing on the Service Commencement Date and continuing through production wrap, including during pre-production activities undertaken prior to the commencement of principal photography.
In the event that the scope of a production expands following the initial activation of a Production subscription, the production owner or Billing Admin may purchase additional Shoot Days to reflect the revised production scale and schedule. Each such purchase of additional Shoot Days shall constitute a separate, independent contractual commitment and shall not modify, amend, or otherwise alter the terms of the existing Production subscription or any prior contract for additional Shoot Days. The additional Shoot Days shall be priced at the then-current standalone rate for the applicable Production subscription tier. Cinapse shall issue a separate invoice for each purchase of additional Shoot Days, and the associated fees shall be recognized over the remaining service period of the production. The Production Term applicable to the original Production subscription shall, if necessary, be extended to reflect the updated production schedule. Each such separate contract shall be governed by these Terms and the terms of the applicable Production subscription tier. For the avoidance of doubt, access to the Services shall continue without interruption, and no gap in service shall result from the purchase of additional Shoot Days.
5.6 Taxes.
Cinapse's fees are net of any applicable Sales Tax. If any Services, or payments for any Services, under the Terms are subject to Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Cinapse, the Billing Admin (for Production subscriptions) or the individual subscriber (for Personal subscriptions) will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Cinapse for any liability or expense we may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes. Upon our request, you will provide us with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or other such evidence that you have paid all applicable taxes. For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax, and any other tax measured by sales proceeds, that Cinapse is permitted to pass to its customers, that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.

Cinapse makes no representations that Cinapse Properties are appropriate or available for use in other locations. Those who access or use Cinapse Properties from other countries do so at their own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law.
16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
Please read the following arbitration agreement in this Section (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with Cinapse and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. This Section 15 only applies to residents of the United States.
16.1 Applicability of Arbitration Agreement.
You agree that any dispute, claim, or request for relief relating in any way to your access or use of the Platform, to any products sold or distributed through the Platform, or to any aspect of your relationship with Cinapse, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if your claims qualify,; and (2) you or Cinapse may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all disputes or claims and requests for relief that arose or were asserted before the effective date of the Terms or any prior version of the Terms.
16.2 Arbitration Rules and Forum.
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. Any arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims, counterclaims, or request for relief under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys' fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS's most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other disputes shall be subject to JAMS's most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS's rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay JAMS's filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from JAMS, Cinapse will pay them for you. In addition, Cinapse will reimburse all such JAMS's filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for disputes, claims, or requests for relief totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
16.3 Authority of Arbitrator.
The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any assertion that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Cinapse. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum's rules, and the Terms (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
16.4 Waiver of Jury Trial.
YOU AND CINAPSE HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Cinapse are instead electing that all disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 15.1 above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow the Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
16.5 Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief.
ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this subsection's limitations as to a given dispute, claim, or request for relief, then such aspect must be severed from the arbitration and brought into the State or Federal Courts located in the State of California. All other disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be arbitrated.
16.6 30-Day Right to Opt Out.
You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: notice@cinapse.io, within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Cinapse username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Cinapse account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of the Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.
16.7 Severability.
Except as provided in Section 15.5, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
16.8 Survival of Agreement.
This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Cinapse.
