Data quantities mentioned in online content/ email/ brochures or other sales literature, in offers, and in order confirmations can vary from quantities actually delivered due to updates made to the database. Claims made on the basis of changes to data quantities cannot be validated.
Use
Access to data or services provided by Kinokast is exclusively for the internal use of the Customer. Sharing of the product in its original form to third parties is forbidden. The processing of delivered data is only allowed in the context of the Customer’s normal business practices. Third parties are people [legal entities] not directly involved with the Customer’s business. Where the product consists of data, this may be used at one or more work places depending on the contractual agreement and the number of acquired licenses. All need reviewing and agreement by the Seller upon a case to case basis.
Subscription
The Client does not acquire the right of ownership of data or any part thereof, which remain the property of the Seller and/or his sources [associates]. The subscription period begins with delivery of the Access Data and lasts for one year unless otherwise agreed upon. The subscription will be extended automatically for one year unless one of the parties gives written notice to terminate at the latest 90 days before the subscription is due to end. During the subscription period the Seller will make available all updates to the product, or portions thereof, to all customers equally. Updates will be provided through exchange [of relevant materials]. The Seller retains the right to from time to time make changes to, shut down at any time, or repossess the product or any portion thereof.

The Customer is required to check and/ or proofread the content including the “Material” immediately after it goes online and to report any errors during the first week online. Should error(s) be reported, The Customer will be informed that the content has been taken offline by means of a test page.

A warning will not be required. The Provider will inform the Customer of his decision immediately. The Customer will be responsible for rendering the contractually agreed payments or goods (Digital or Physical Material(s), Product(s)) unless he can prove that the Provider had no just cause to revoke the offer.

This includes use of photos as a basis for drawings, caricatures, reworked photos, and presentations by The Customer, as well as the use of photographic details that can be used in new photographic compositions by use of montage, photocomposing, electronic editing, or other techniques.
Delivery of Original Photography
