Intellectual Property

The user has no right to reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works based on the software without the express written consent of the software developer or publisher.

Additionally, the terms of use may also outline the user’s responsibilities with respect to any intellectual property related to the software, such as acknowledging the developer or publisher as the owner of the intellectual property and not infringing upon any existing intellectual property rights.

Moreover, the Terms of Use may state that the user retains ownership of any data or content they create using the PLATFORM, subject to certain limitations. For instance, the user may grant the developer or publisher a license to use such data or content for the purpose of improving the software or providing customer support, but such use should not violate the user’s rights to their intellectual property.

 

Procedure for making claims of Intellectual Property infringement

To report any infringement of user´s intellectual property rights, please send an e-mail to customer@lexsemantic.com with the Subject: INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT. This e-mail can be used to report various types of intellectual property claims, such as copyright, trademark, and patent claims, among others. If you are not an intellectual property rights owner or their agent, COMPANY will not be able to process complaints submitted.

We take these claims seriously and aim to address them promptly. In appropriate circumstances, we will terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

 

Login/Termination/Refund

User identification is done by an email and a password.

The COMPANY does not have access to the password, so its recovery will not be possible. There are mechanisms of password change whose necessary information is on the PLATFORM and must be the maintained and remembered by the users.

The e-mail provided is not verified by the COMPANY, so communication by this instrument with the user and its future identification depends on the supply of an existing email.

The COMPANY does not refund for the termination of contracts in progress. When canceling a subscription by the user, it will be valid until the end provided in its acquisition.
