Publisher Agreement

Welcome to Thinkly Publications!


This Publisher Agreement (“Agreement”) is a binding contract between you and Thinkly (“we”, “us”, “our”). It contains the rules and restrictions that govern your use of Thinkly’s products and services (referred to below simply as “Thinkly”) to distribute your newsletters and any content therein. If you use Thinkly for this purpose, you are a Publisher and will need to create a Publication. In this Agreement, we refer to people that subscribe to your Publications (Free or Paid) as Readers

Using Thinkly in any way means that you agree to this Agreement, and this Agreement will remain in effect while you use Thinkly. This Agreement includes everything in this document, as well as those in the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and all other rules and procedures that may be published from time to time by us on Thinkly. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement and any other terms and conditions you have agreed to with Thinkly, this Agreement will prevail with respect to its subject matter.

You must be of legal age to form a binding contract to use Thinkly. If you aren’t, you need to get your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use Thinkly, and your parent or guardian will agree to this Agreement on your behalf.

If you’re agreeing to this Agreement on behalf of an organization or entity, you must be authorized to agree to this Agreement on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to this Agreement (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” throughout this document refer to that organization or entity).

If you don’t agree to all of the following, you may not use or access Thinkly in any manner. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding the Agreement or our products and services, please contact us at help@thinkly.me.

Ownership First and foremost, you own what you create. Any original content you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide to Thinkly remains yours and is protected by copyright and any other applicable intellectual property laws. However, please note that you agree to grant us a license to your content in order to enable us to operate Thinkly. This license allows us to promote your content and help you succeed on Thinkly.

You agree that this limited license includes a worldwide, nonexclusive, sublicensable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable right (a) to market your Publications and to permit others to use, access, and download your Publications through Thinkly, and (b) to use your tradename(s), trademark(s), and logo(s) in connection with the distribution and marketing of Publications. For further details, please see “Posting Content on Thinkly” in the Terms of Service, which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference

Don’t Infringe. Your Posts should not violate someone else’s rights. Don’t copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell, commercialize or otherwise exploit for any purpose any content not owned by you unless you have prior consent from the owner of that content. E.g. If you are using a YouTube or Spotify link for a Video/Audio Thinkly, it is implied that you are the creator of the said content or have the rights or explicit permission from the original creator/owner to share the same or are certain that sharing the said content will not lead to infringement of anyone’s intellectual property rights, and that you completely indemnify Thinkly from any disputes or claims arising from any such action performed by you.

In case you find someone infringing upon your content on Thinkly, you can reach out to help@thinkly.me and we will try and share your concerns with the said user. However, in case of a dispute, Thinkly will not be in a position to determine the owner of the said content.

Privacy

Thinkly takes privacy very seriously. If you store personal or sensitive information provided by or collected from Thinkly users, you must do so securely and only for as long as it is needed.

You may not collect from a user via Thinkly or any other method any information -- personally identifiable or not -- beyond what Thinkly is permitted to collect from a user under its own Privacy Policy.

You are solely responsible for complying with any laws and regulations that apply to user information, including without limitation the posting of your own privacy policy on your subdomain on Thinkly if appropriate.

Consistent with our Privacy Policy, we collect certain data on how Readers engage with Publications.

We may terminate this Agreement or terminate, suspend, or restrict your access to or use of Thinkly at any time, for any reason.
