Terms of Service

Last Updated: February 16, 2021.

Welcome to the Playbook website (www.playbook.com) (the “Site”). Please read these Terms of Service (the “Terms”) carefully because they govern your use of our websites including playbook.com and any other websites that we may later own or operate (“Site” or “Sites”); mobile applications (“App(s)”), application program interface(s) (“API(s)”) and other products and services we may later own or operate (collectively called the “Services”).

1. Agreement to these Terms

By using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you don’t agree to these Terms, do not use the Services. If you are accessing and using the Services on behalf of a company (such as your employer) or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that company or other legal entity.

2. Changes to the Terms or Services

We may modify the Terms at any time, in our sole discretion. If we do so, we’ll let you know either by posting the modified Terms on the Site or through other communications. If you continue to use the Services, you are indicating that you agree to the modified Terms. We may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion.

ARBITRATION NOTICE: IF YOU ARE ACCESSING AND USING THE SERVICES AS AN INDIVIDUAL (NOT ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY OR OTHER LEGAL ENTITY), UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE YOU FIRST AGREE TO THESE TERMS BY FOLLOWING THE OPT-OUT PROCEDURE SPECIFIED IN THE “DISPUTE RESOLUTION FOR INDIVIDUAL CONSUMERS” SECTION BELOW, AND YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND PLAYBOOK WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DISPUTES DESCRIBED IN THAT SECTION, AND YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

3. Who May Use the Services

You may use the Services only if you are 13 years or older and are not barred from using the Services under applicable law.

In order to use certain features of the Services, you must create an account (“Account”) via the Site and become a registered user (“User”). You have to provide us with accurate and complete information and keep it up-to-date. You’ll notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your Account and you’re responsible for all activities that occur under your Account, whether or not you know about them.

4. Subscriptions and Payment

4.1 Pricing

Subject to these Terms, the Services are provided to you for free up to certain limits and with limited features. Usage over these limits or access to certain features requires you to purchase a subscription (“Subscription”). Your and your Team Members’ rights and obligations will be based on the type of Project Team you choose (i.e., free or paid Subscription). Details about the different types of Subscriptions, and the limits and available features associated with the Services, are available at www.playbook.com/p/pricing.

You may change the type of Subscription at any time by (i) emailing us at support@playbook.com and following any instructions, if any, we provide to you in response to your change request or (ii) initiating a change through your Account settings within the Services.

4.2 Payment Terms

When you purchase a Subscription (such purchase, a “Transaction”) you expressly authorize us (or our third party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your Transaction, including, without limitation, your credit-card number, the expiration date of your credit card, and your address(es) for billing (such information, “Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to our third party service providers so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected (plus any applicable taxes and other charges). You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity before completing your Transaction (such information is included within the definition of Payment Information).

4.3 Authorization for Recurring Payments

If you purchase a Subscription, you will be charged the then-applicable Subscription fee (“Subscription Fee”) at the beginning of your Subscription and each month, quarter or year thereafter, depending on the term of your Subscription, at the then-current rate. Subscription Fees are outlined at www.playbook.com/p/pricing. Please note that our Subscription Fees are subject to change, although we will notify you before we effect any change in Subscription Fees.

By agreeing to these Terms and purchasing a Subscription, you acknowledge that your Subscription has recurring payment features and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription by you or Playbook. We (or our third party payment processor) will automatically charge you in accordance with term of your Subscription (e.g., each month, quarter or year), on the calendar day corresponding to the commencement of your Subscription, using the Payment Information you have provided. In the event your Subscription began on a day not contained in a given month, your payment method will be charged on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we deem appropriate. For example, if you started a monthly Subscription on January 31st, your next payment date is likely to be February 28th, and your payment method would be billed on that date. We may also periodically authorize your payment method in anticipation of applicable fees or related charges. Your Subscription continues until cancelled by you or we terminate your access to or use of the Services or the Subscription in accordance with these Terms.

4.4 Cancelling Subscriptions

You may cancel your Subscription at any time but please note that such cancellation will be effective at the end of the then-current Subscription period. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID FOR THE THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION. To cancel, you can either (i) email us at support@playbook.com and follow any instructions, if any, we provide to you in response to your cancellation request, or (ii) initiate a cancellation through your Account settings within the Services. You will be responsible for all Subscription Fees (plus any applicable taxes and other charges) incurred for the then current Subscription period. If you cancel, we will allow you to access any private Projects associated with such Subscription until the most recently paid-up Subscription period ends. Cancelling your Subscription won’t cancel your Account. See Section 12 (Termination) below for information on terminating your Account.

At the end of the Subscription period, or if you stop paying the Subscription Fee, any Project Team you have created that is subject to purchase of a Subscription will be locked or disabled and you and any other Team Members will no longer be able to access the Project Team and any related Projects. We will not delete your Project Content and User Content, but you and your Team Members will not be able to access it, unless and until you purchase a Subscription again or modify your Project Team such that it meets the limits of a free Project Team. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Playbook makes no guarantees regarding the retention of your Project Content and User Content associated with a locked Project Team. You acknowledge sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from cancellation of your Subscription, including, without limitation, any loss of data associated with a Project.

5. Content and Content Rights

For purposes of these Terms: (i) “Content” means text, graphics, designs, images, music, software, audio, video, works of authorship of any kind, and information or other materials that are posted, generated, provided or otherwise made available through the Services (including without limitation, the Tools); and (ii) “User Content” means any Content that Users (including you) provide to be made available through the Services, including without limitation any assets and Project Content created by a User (other than the Tools and any other Content that we provide to you) as well as modifications a User makes to another User’s assets, digital typefonts or font files (“Fonts“).

5.1 Ownership and Responsibility of User Content

As between you and Playbook, you own your User Content - Playbook does not claim any ownership rights in any User Content that you make available through the Services and nothing in these Terms will be deemed to restrict any rights that you may have to use and exploit your User Content. Subject to the foregoing, Playbook and its licensors exclusively own all right, title and interest in and to the Services and Content, including all associated intellectual property rights. You agree not to remove, alter or obscure any copyright, trademark, service mark or other proprietary rights notices incorporated in or accompanying the Services or Content.

You are solely responsible for all your User Content. You represent and warrant that you own all your User Content or you have all rights that are necessary to grant us the license rights in your User Content under these Terms. You also represent and warrant that neither your User Content, nor your use and provision of your User Content, nor any use of your User Content by Playbook or any other users on or through the Services will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party’s intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation.

5.2 Rights in User Content Granted by You

By making any User Content, including Fonts, available through our Services you hereby grant to Playbook a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable license, with a right to sublicense, to access, view, use, copy, modify, publicly display, publicly perform and distribute your User Content to the extent reasonably needed to operate and provide the Services to you, and other Users as the functionality of the Services permits.

By uploading any Fonts to Playbook, the Site or as part of using the Services, and by assenting to a confirmation query that we provide about your rights to use and redistribute Fonts, you are representing and warranting to Playbook that (a) you own copyright or title in and to the Fonts, or that the owner of the Fonts has granted you a license to distribute copies of the Fonts to others and to sublicense others to use the Fonts; (b) you understand that compliance with the foregoing may require you or your organization to purchase an “extended rights” license or other redistribution license from the font owner for the benefit of your organization or other users, for a particular Font before uploading that Font to Playbook, the Site or for the Services, and/or for MacOS fonts, inspect restrictions stated in the Font Book/Preview/Show Font Info panel; and (c) you acknowledge that you are solely responsible to determine whether you own or have licensed a scope of rights for Fonts that you upload that permit uploading, redistributing and use of those Fonts by others using the Services and that the failure to do so may expose you to liability to the owner of uploaded Fonts for infringement of any copyright that they own.

Terms of service for Microsoft system fonts generally prohibit any uploading or redistribution of MS system fonts, but note that some may be subject to “extended rights” licenses from Monotype. The required “internal use server license” from Monotype appears to require payment. See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/fonts/font-faq, http://catalog.monotype.com/licensing-options.

You understand and agree that you share your User Content (whether your own assets or your modifications and improvements to another user’s assets) through the Services at your own risk. Playbook is not responsible for any ownership or licensing arrangements between you and other Team Members regarding User Content shared within a Project Team, or between you and anyone else that has access to your assets and/or other User Content on account of your public posting of your assets and/or User Content. In sharing your assets and User Content, with other Team Members or through public posting, it’s your responsibility to spell out the rights that your Team Members or the general public, as applicable, have in connection with their access to and use of your assets and User Content. Any disputes regarding ownership or licensing of a Design or modifications thereto that have been shared amongst a Project Team are between you and your Team Members. Any disputes regarding ownership or licensing of a Design or modifications thereto that have been shared via Public Posting are between you and those parties that have access to such Design or modifications on account of your public posting. We are not responsible for resolving any intellectual property or ownership disputes between Team Members or between you and anyone else that has access to your assets and/or other User Content an account of your public posting, so you should exercise good judgment when deciding whether or not to participate in a Project Team or about the public posting of any of your assets and/or other User Content.

5.3 Rights in Content Granted by Playbook

If you are not a registered User, subject to your compliance with these Terms, Playbook grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to view any Content to which you are permitted access solely for your personal and non-commercial purposes.

If you are a registered User, subject to your compliance with these Terms, Playbook grants you a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to access and view the Content (including any User Content as applicable) solely in connection with your permitted use of the Services.

In addition, Playbook grants your Team Members (and by adding any Team Members to your Project Team, you hereby allow Playbook to grant to your Team Members) the right to copy, distribute, modify and create derivative works based upon your Project and the Project Content as permitted by the functionality of the Services.

5.4 Data Maintenance and Backup Procedures

In the event of any loss or corruption of any data associated with the Services, Playbook will use commercially reasonable efforts to restore the lost or corrupted data from the latest backup of such data maintained by Playbook. EXCEPT FOR THE FOREGOING, PLAYBOOK WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS, DESTRUCTION, ALTERATION, UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR CORRUPTION OF ANY SUCH DATA.

5.5 Deleting Content

You can remove certain User Content through the Services. However, some of your User Content (including, without limitation, posts or comments that have been made on the Project Content associated with public Projects) may not be removed and copies of your User Content may continue to exist on the Services in archive or backup form. However, we may remove or delete your User Content within a reasonable period of time after the termination or cancellation of your Account in accordance with Section 14 (Termination). We are not responsible or liable for the removal or deletion of (or the failure to remove or delete) any of your User Content.

16. Governing Law

These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.

17. Dispute Resolution for Individual Consumers

Our goal is to provide you with great service, so we’ll try our best to resolve any disagreements that you have with us. If we can’t, then you and we both agree to resolve disputes related to your use of the Services or these Terms (each, a “Claim”) in binding arbitration instead of court, except that a Claim may be brought in small claims court if it qualifies for it. You and we also agree that either party may bring suit in court to enjoin the infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

What is arbitration?

Arbitration does not involve a judge or jury. Instead, a neutral person (the “arbitrator”) hears each party’s side of the dispute, and makes a decision that is finally binding on both parties. The arbitrator can award the same relief as a court could award, including monetary damages. While court review of an arbitration award is limited, if a party fails to comply with the arbitrator’s decision, then the other party can have the arbitration decision enforced by a court. If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and we each waive any right to a jury trial.

Can a Claim be part of a class action or similar proceeding?

No. You agree to resolve your Claims with us solely on an individual basis, and not as part of a class, representative or consolidated action. We agree to do the same.

What rules apply in the arbitration?

The arbitration will be conducted under the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”). The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.

How will the arbitration be conducted? How much does it cost?

The arbitration will be conducted by the AAA or a comparable arbitration body in the event the AAA is unable to conduct the arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. Unless the arbitrator finds your Claim frivolous, we’ll pay for all filing, administration and arbitrator fees if your Claim is for less than $10,000, and we won’t seek our attorneys’ fees and costs if we prevail in the arbitration. The arbitration may be conducted in writing, remotely (e.g., by videoconference) or in-person in the county where you live (or at some other location that we both agree to).

How do I start an arbitration proceeding?

To begin an arbitration proceeding against us, send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your Claim to legal@playbook.com, 341 Moultrie St, San Francisco, CA 94110. If we request arbitration against you we will give you notice at the email address or street address you provided.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR OPTING-OUT OF ARBITRATION:

If you don’t want to agree to arbitrate your Claims as explained above, then you can opt-out of this arbitration agreement by notifying us of your decision in writing at legal@playbook.com, 341 Moultrie St, San Francisco, CA 94110. You must opt-out within 30 days of the date you first agree to these Terms or any updated Terms.

This Section 17 only applies to Claims between us and individual consumers, and is governed by The Federal Arbitration Act.

18. Dispute Resolution for Companies

If you are accessing and using the Services on behalf of a company or other legal entity, any claim, cause of action or dispute between the company or other legal entity and Playbook arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services and Content will be resolved exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California or a state court located in Santa Clara County, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating all such claims.

19. General Terms

These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Playbook and you regarding the Services and Content, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Playbook and you regarding the Services and Content. If for any reason an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without Playbook’s prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null and of no effect. Playbook may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.

Any notices or other communications provided by Playbook under these Terms, including those regarding modifications to these Terms, will be given by Playbook: (i) via e-mail; or (ii) by posting to the Site. For notices made by e-mail, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.

Playbook’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.

20. Accessing Apps

The following terms apply to any App accessed through or downloaded from any app store or distribution platform (like the Apple App Store or Google Play) where the App may now or in the future be made available (each an "App Provider"). You acknowledge and agree that:

  • These Terms are concluded between you and Playbook, and not with the App Provider, and Playbook (not the App Provider), is solely responsible for the App.
  • The App Provider has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App.
  • In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify the App Provider, and the App Provider will refund the purchase price for the App to you (if applicable) and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the App Provider will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App. Any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of Playbook.
  • The App Provider is not responsible for addressing any claims you have or any claims of any third party relating to the App or your possession and use of the App, including, but not limited to: (i) product liability claims; (ii) any claim that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
  • In the event of any third party claim that the App or your possession and use of that App infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, Playbook will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim to the extent required by these Terms.
  • The App Provider, and its subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms as related to your license to the App, and that, upon your acceptance of the Terms, the App Provider will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms as related to your license of the App against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.
  • You represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a terrorist- supporting country; and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • You must also comply with all applicable third party terms of service when using the App.
