You will publish videos to LSMS by use of a URL embed, originating from your independent video hosting account.
1.12.2. LSMS utilizes AWS (Amazon Web Services) for cloud hosting. AWS is the world’s most universally recognized cloud hosting platform, and is serviced by more than 175 data centers globally. All content stored on LSMS servers is required to adhere to and be publishable under the AWS TOS, in addition to LSMS TOS. Any contention or concern will refer to the actual TOS that it violates.
1.12.3. Cloud hosting creates a copy of data and stores it at various locations around the world. The data is then served to end-users by the closest and fastest available means. Cloud hosting utilizes a caching system. Updates to your content on the LSMS system are generally virtually instantaneous, but some delays in updates may occur. These delays will be resolved as soon as the server cache clears. LSMS is not responsible for delays in updates resulting from AWS’s cloud hosting platform.
1.13. Privacy
Your data and assets will be held privately. You and you alone have the discretion to change the viewing capabilities from private to public. LSMS will never share or utilize your data without you first making it public.
1.14. Location Services
Location Services refers to the ability of a computer, tablet, phone or other device to utilize the physical map location of the end-user. Ability to utilize location services will always be determined by the end-user, according to the permissions they allow from their device. When applicable, location services determine locale in the following order 1) end-user’s location 2) your location 3) LSMS location. Data and query responses will be determined in the most meaningful way for your end-user.
1.15. Fraud
Any fraud or malicious usage will result in immediate termination of your account, with LSMS holding no liability for your data. Penalties under law will be sought wherever and whenever applicable, at the sole-discretion of LSMS personnel.
This Section describes the additional terms and conditions under which you may (a) access and use certain features, technologies, and services made available to you by LSMS that are not yet generally available, including, but not limited to, any products, services, or features labeled “beta”, “preview”, “pre-release”, or “experimental”, and any related LSMS Content (each, a “Beta Service”) or (b) access and use Services and any related LSMS Content available in LSMS regions that are not generally available, including, but not limited to, any LSMS regions identified by LSMS as “beta”, “preview”, “pre-release”, or “experimental” (each, a “Beta Region”). Users, Customers, Visitors, or End-users will make reasonable effort to notify LSMS in the event of a problem with a Beta feature. Note: In the event that LSMS releases an “ALPHA,” a pre-beta feature, the same terms and conditions applying to BETAs or PREVIEWs shall apply.
3.1. Either you or LSMS may terminate your LSMS account. LSMS will maintain and protect your data on LSMS servers, with the understanding that your content will not compromise, weaken and bypass security features of the LSMS servers. LSMS may take any content offline that appears to modify the LSMS servers or website system.
3.2. You may terminate your LSMS account with 30 days notice in writing to email elly@leadsymphony.com. Or by using the cancel button on LSMS website. This cancel button does not automatically delete or terminate the DNS link or content created on your account. An LSMS account representative will contact you within 48 hours to cancel your account by the safest means possible.
3.3. You may elect to terminate your active publishing billing. In the event that you elect self-termination, your data may be removed from LSMS servers 60 days after your notice of termination unless otherwise agreed to be maintained with LSMS.
3.4. You may elect to keep your previous data published at a yearly cost of $250. These costs may depend on the amount of data you store on LSMS servers. In the event that you elect to keep your previous data published, LSMS will continue to serve this data to your website, but you will no longer be able to create new content inside the LSMS system. In plain language, you can keep you previously posted job pages, while declining active publishing, at a reduced monthly cost.
3.5. LSMS may modify data service prices over the course of time. Data service prices will be delivered at competitive monthly rates lower than the existing active publication prices.
LSMS offers a 45-day money back guarantee. This guarantee assumes that you will actively produce, edit, and upload content to your LSMS account. By using the site, you agree to provide your best efforts in creating content for your LSMS database. Furthermore, both you and LSMS agree that it takes time for content to be found, indexed and ranked by search engines. If you do not produce LSMS content during the first 10 days of your first training session with LSMS account representative, the LSMS Guarantee & Refund is void. LSMS may extend this guarantee and refund period at its own discretion.
5.1. LSMS limits its liability to the functionality of LSMS in creating pages, publishing to your website, storing data, protecting data privacy and the security of LSMS website. By viewing, using, or interacting in any manner with this site, including banners, advertising, or pop-ups, downloads, and as a condition of the website to allow his lawful viewing, Visitor forever waives all right to claims of damage of any and all description based on any causal factor resulting in any possible harm, no matter how heinous or extensive, whether physical or emotional, foreseeable or unforeseeable, whether personal or business in nature.

We are not liable for the content you create or the visual style in which you deliver it.
LSMS assumes no responsibility for your website security. LSMS data is hosted on LSMS servers, and LSMS assumes responsibility for said data. Your site security must include a secure server certificate that results in the “https://” prefix for your website. If your site security does not include this prefix, LSMS cannot predict, warranty, or be responsible for security of data, nor can LSMS predict the response that search engines will have to that data. If your site security does not include the “https://” prefix, LSMS avers that your search engine rankings will be affected negatively and receive lower placement in search engine placement.
If during the previous 6 months you have incurred no fees for LSMS DB and have registered no usage of Your Content stored in LSMS DB, we may delete Your Content that is stored in DB upon 30 days prior notice to you. Users who pay annual storage fees are exempt from this provision, providing that annual storage fees are current.
LSMS Server collects and stores certain information for the Services you are monitoring, including CPU utilization, data transfer, and disk usage and activity (collectively, “Metric Data”). Metric Data may be used by LSMS or AWS to maintain and provide the Services (including development and improvement of the Services).
The Services are intended for use by users of at least eighteen (18) years old. If you register for LSMS, you hereby declare that you are eighteen (18) years old or older and undertake to monitor your account to ensure that no minor under that age has access to the Services.

These delays will be resolved as soon as the server cache clears. LSMS is not responsible for delays in updates resulting from AWS’s cloud hosting platform.

19.1. Outside Service Providers (“Providers”) offer their services (“Provider Services”) as independent contractors, and are not employees of you or us. LSMS is not a party to the agreement between you and any Providers for their Provider Services, is not responsible or liable for Provider Services, and does not guarantee the quality or accuracy of Provider Services. For avoidance of doubt, any certification that a Provider obtains from us only certifies that the Provider has passed a test intended to evaluate the Provider’s proficiency and understanding of a particular LSMS Service or area of knowledge to which that certification relates, and is not a guarantee that the Provider Services will be performed at any particular level of quality, speed, or to your specific requirements.

19.4. You release us (and our agents and employees) from claims, demands, and damages (actual or consequential) of any and every kind and nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with your use of the LSMS system.
