We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use of VideoNest thereafter.

Accessing VideoNest and Account Security

We reserve the right to change any service or functionality we provide on VideoNest, in our sole discretion without notice. We will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of VideoNest is unavailable at any time or for any period. From time to time, we may restrict access to some parts of VideoNest to users, including registered users.

You are responsible for both:

  • Making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to VideoNest.
  • Ensuring that all persons who access VideoNest through your internet connection are aware of these Terms of Use and comply with them.

To access VideoNest or some of the resources it offers, you may be asked to provide certain registration details or other information. It is a condition of your use of VideoNest that all the information you provide on VideoNest is correct, current, and complete. You agree that all information you provide to register with VideoNest or otherwise, including, but not limited to, through the use of any interactive features on VideoNest, is governed by our Privacy Policy, and you consent to all actions we take with respect to your information consistent with our Privacy Policy.

If you choose, or are provided with, a user name, password, or any other piece of information as part of our security procedures, you must treat such information as confidential, and you must not disclose it to any other person or entity. You also acknowledge that your account is personal to you and agree not to provide any other person with access to VideoNest or portions of it using your user name, password, or other security information. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to or use of your user name or password or any other breach of security. You also agree to ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You should use particular caution when accessing your account from a public or shared computer so that others are not able to view or record your password or other personal information.
