Last updated:Â July 26, 2025
Please read these AirFrameIP terms and conditions of use and service carefully. THESE TERMS OF SERVICE MAY HAVE CHANGED SINCE YOUR LAST VISIT TO THIS PAGE (THE âSITEâ). ALWAYS CHECK THE âLAST UPDATEDâ DATE ABOVE.
These Terms of Service, which may include Order Forms, schedules, exhibits, addenda and statements of work (âSOWsâ) referred to or linked to or incorporated herein (the âTermsâ), create an agreement between the company, organization, legal entity or legal person provided upon Platform registration or listed on the Order Form (âCustomerâ, âYouâ or âYourâ and terms of similar meaning) and In House IP Inc. (âIn House IP Inc.â, âWeâ, âOurâ or âUsâ and terms of similar meaning) regarding Your access to and use of any AirFrameIP platform (âPlatformâ) and receipt of consulting, training, professional and/or other services (collectively, âServicesâ). All users must agree to these Terms before using the Platform and Services.
If You are an individual agreeing to these Terms, You agree that these Terms apply to You as a User; additionally, if You are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of a company, organization, other legal entity or legal person, You represent that You have the authority to bind that entity and its affiliates, and its and their respective employees, agents, delegates, representatives and any other individuals that have been authorized by You to access and use the Platform and receive the Services (âUsersâ), to these Terms. If You do not agree with the Terms or if You do not have such authority, You must not accept an Order Form (as applicable) and Customer and Users will not be permitted to access, receive and use the Platform and Services.
 1. Orders, Fees and Payments
a. You may from time to time submit orders for Platform and Services in an order form (an âOrder Formâ) and those terms and conditions are incorporated into these Terms by reference. An Order Form and these Terms will be deemed to be accepted by You by: (i) You signing the Order Form; or (ii) You (or an User) registering for an account to access or use the Platform; or (iii) You (or an User) otherwise access or use the Platform (the âOrder Effective Dateâ).
b. You will pay Us all fees as set out in an Order Form (the âFeesâ). Fees for Platform are payable regardless of Your actual usage of the Platform.
c. You will be responsible for all applicable taxes or other charges imposed by any governmental authority, relating to: (i) Us providing; or (ii) Your access, receipt and use of the Platform and Services. If We are obligated to collect or pay taxes for which You are responsible, You will pay Us the appropriate amount unless You provide Us with a valid tax exemption certificate. We reserve the right to gross up the Fees for the Platform and Services in an invoice if a withholding prevents Us from receiving the actual amount specified in an invoice. You are solely responsible for determining and remitting any taxes or duties that may apply to You as the customer of record. We are not liable for any withholding or customs compliance unless otherwise agreed in writing. Customer is solely responsible for ensuring compliance with all applicable tax and reporting obligations in their jurisdiction.
d. You will have access to and use of the Platform starting from the Order Effective Date. Unless mutually agreed in writing otherwise, all invoices are due upon receipt and must be paid within 30 days. If payment is not received on time, we may, after providing notice and allowing a reasonable period to cure the non-payment, suspend Your access to the Platform and/or any related Services. Any such suspension shall not relieve You of Your obligation to pay amounts due.
e. Any travel or out-of-pocket expenses required in connection with the Services will be specified and agreed upon in the applicable Order Form. No such expenses shall be incurred or charged without Your prior written approval.
2. Term and Termination
a. These Terms take effect on the Order Effective Date and will remain in effect until the end of the initial licensing term set out in the applicable Order Form or SOW (the âInitial Licensing Termâ). These Terms may be renewed for additional periods (each, an âExtended Termâ, and together with the Initial Licensing Term, the âAccess Termâ) upon mutual agreement in writing through other SOWâs for each new project. Any renewal will be governed by the AirFrameIP Terms of Service in effect at the time of renewal and the applicable Fees communicated in a SOW and associated invoice or other written notice from Us to You. You remain responsible for payment for access to the Platform and Services through the end of the Licensing Term, regardless of when notice is provided.
b. In the event of a breach of these Terms by either party that remains uncured for 20 business days, the non-breaching party may immediately terminate these Terms.
c. Upon termination of these Terms for any reason whatsoever, You will pay all outstanding Fees owing to Us and We will not have any obligation to refund any Fees that You may have already paid to Us.
3. Use of the Platform
a. As of the Order Effective Date, We grant You a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable and non-assignable, worldwide right to access and use (and permit Users to access and use) the Platform for Your internal business use during the Licensing Term and only as permitted by these Terms.
b. Unless otherwise provided in these Terms, You will not: (i) resell, distribute, or use the Platform on a timeshare, outsourced, or service bureau basis; (ii) provide access to the Platform to a third party (other than to Users of Your legal affiliate or other agents acting on Your behalf); (iii) modify, reproduce, duplicate, deconstruct or reverse engineer the Platform or create derivative works of the Platform (unless Your Order Form so indicates; and in which case, the creation and use of such derivative works will be for Your sole benefit); (iv) use the Platform to interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the Platform or the content contained therein.
c. Any rights not explicitly granted in these Terms are strictly reserved by Us and You will not use the Platform except in the manner as expressly granted herein. From time to time, We reserve the right to review Your usage of the Platform to determine Your compliance with these Terms.

e. You acknowledge and agree that any content that We make available for You through access to the Platform does not constitute legal or other professional advice and that You should seek such advice as required.Â

This license does not permit You to sublicense, publicly distribute, or sell the Downloaded Content or any derivative works thereof. For certainty, this license survives termination or expiration of the Licensing Term.
4. Services
a. We may provide You with Services as set out in an Order Form and a SOW (or a Change Order to a SOW). A SOW may be required for each project, set of Users, and may specify, among other things, the purpose and scope of the project, the number of Users, the responsibilities of each party, assumptions, deliverable(s) (if any), applicable fees and payment terms and any other specific requirements.

We will not have an obligation to perform, and You will not have an obligation to pay for, Services related to any Change unless You and We have agreed to the Change in writing. If You request a Change, We will evaluate the request and, whether You or We requested a Change, We will provide You with a written estimate of the cost, if any, of the requested Change and any additional terms and conditions related to such Changes. Upon Your approval of the cost estimate and any such additional terms and conditions, You and We will enter into a change order document amending the applicable SOW (a âChange Orderâ).
e. In the event of a conflict between or among the provisions of these Terms and the specific provisions set forth in a SOW (including a Change Order), the provisions of such SOW will take precedence over these Terms only if such provisions specifically reference the provisions of these Terms that are in conflict or superseded.
f. You agree that We may contact You via e-mail or otherwise with information relevant to Your use of the Services and Your payment obligations.
