Welcome to Path Technology Inc. DBA DESIGNBEE (“PATH,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our websites, applications, software, tools, and related products and services (collectively, the “Service” or “Services”).

PATH TECHNOLOGY INC. is a Delaware C-Corporation.

By creating an account, accessing, downloading, installing, or otherwise using the Services, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and any additional guidelines, policies, rules, or supplemental terms we post or provide (collectively, the “Policies”). If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

IMPORTANT DISPUTE NOTICE 

These Terms include a binding arbitration provision and a class action waiver. This affects how legal disputes are handled. You may have a right to opt out of arbitration, as described below.

1. Eligibility and Who May Use the Services

1.1 Minimum Age. You must be at least 13 years old to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.

1.2 Account Termination for Ineligible Users. We may suspend or terminate accounts that we reasonably believe are used by someone who does not meet the eligibility requirements.

1.3 Using the Services for an Organization. If you accept these Terms or use the Services on behalf of a company, organization, or other entity (“Organization”), you represent and warrant that:

  • you are authorized to act on behalf of that Organization; and

  • you have authority to bind the Organization to these Terms.
    In that case, “you” and “your” refer to both you and the Organization.

2. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and otherwise process information in connection with the Services. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that your information will be handled as described in the Privacy Policy.

3. Your Account, Security, and Responsibilities

3.1 Account Registration. You may need an account to use certain features. You agree to provide accurate, current information and to keep it updated.

3.2 Account Security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not authorized by you.

3.3 Unauthorized Use. If you believe your account has been compromised, notify us promptly. We are not responsible for losses caused by unauthorized use of your account, except to the extent required by applicable law.

3.4 Communications. By creating an account, you agree we may send you service-related communications (e.g., receipts, security alerts, policy updates). Marketing communications may be managed through your preferences where offered.

4. Acceptable Use and Prohibited Conduct

4.1 You’re Responsible for Your Use. You agree to use the Services legally and responsibly.

4.2 Prohibited Conduct. You may not, and may not assist others to:

  • violate any law, regulation, or court order;

  • infringe, misappropriate, or violate third-party rights (including intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or contractual rights);

  • upload, transmit, or share content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, exploitative, sexually explicit (especially involving minors), or otherwise harmful;

  • interfere with, disrupt, or degrade the Services or the systems supporting them;

  • reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive source code or underlying models/algorithms, except to the extent such restriction is prohibited by law;

  • access the Services using automated means (bots, scrapers) except through interfaces we explicitly permit;

  • circumvent or attempt to circumvent access controls, rate limits, paywalls, or security features;

  • use the Services to distribute malware or to collect credentials or personal data unlawfully;

  • impersonate others or misrepresent your affiliation.

4.3 Enforcement. We may investigate suspected violations and may suspend or terminate access, remove content, or take other action we deem appropriate.

5. Subscriptions, Billing, and Purchases

5.1 Free and Paid Offerings. Some parts of the Services may be free (“Free Tier”), while other features require payment (“Paid Features,” “Subscription,” or “Plan”).

5.2 Buying Through Us vs. a Third Party. You may be able to purchase a Subscription:

  • directly from PATH; or

  • through a third-party platform (e.g., mobile app store).
    If you purchase through a third party, that third party’s terms may apply in addition to these Terms, and billing/management may be handled by them.

5.3 Automatic Renewal. Unless you cancel before renewal, Subscriptions automatically renew at the then-current rate for the selected billing period.

5.4 Payment Authorization. You authorize PATH (and/or our payment processors) to charge your payment method for recurring Subscription fees and applicable taxes. If a payment fails, we may retry charges, suspend Paid Features, or terminate your Subscription.

5.5 Billing Cycle and Proration. Your billing period is the interval associated with your Subscription (monthly, annual, etc.). In some cases, billing dates may shift (e.g., when a month lacks a corresponding calendar date). We may prorate charges or credits when you change plans, as disclosed at checkout or in your account settings.

5.6 Taxes. You are responsible for all applicable taxes, duties, and governmental charges.

5.7 Cancellation. You can cancel via your account settings or through the third-party platform where purchased. Cancellation stops renewal; you typically keep access through the end of the current paid period.

5.8 Refunds. Payments are non-refundable except where required by law or explicitly stated otherwise in writing by PATH. If you cancel, you will not receive a refund for unused time.

5.9 Price and Plan Changes. We may change pricing, packages, or features. If you have an active Subscription, we will provide notice of material changes as required by law. Continued use after the change becomes effective constitutes acceptance.

6. Trials, Promotions, and Discounts

6.1 Trials. We may offer free or discounted trials (“Trial”). Eligibility may be limited and determined at our discretion.

6.2 Trial Conversion. Unless canceled before the Trial ends, your Trial may automatically convert into a paid Subscription and you authorize us to charge your payment method.

6.3 Modification or Withdrawal. We may modify, suspend, or end any Trial or promotion at any time to the extent permitted by law.

7. The Services and Feature Availability

7.1 Service Description. The Services may allow you to create, edit, generate, publish, store, and share designs, images, videos, audio, templates, text, and other content, and to use tools that assist with creation or transformation of content.

7.2 Feature Differences. Features may differ depending on device, operating system, region, plan type, and other factors.

7.3 Updates and Changes. We may update the Services, add or remove features, and change workflows. We do not guarantee that any specific feature will remain available.

8.1 Limited License. Subject to these Terms, PATH grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your personal or internal business use.

8.2 Restrictions. This license does not grant you rights to:

10.3 License You Grant to PATH. By uploading, generating, creating, or sharing User Content through the Services, you grant PATH a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to:

  • host, store, reproduce, process, and display your User Content;

  • create derivative works as needed to operate the Services (e.g., resizing, formatting, transcoding);

  • distribute your User Content as directed by your settings and sharing actions; and

  • use your User Content to maintain, develop, and improve the Services.
    This license is granted for as long as your User Content is stored or used within the Services, subject to Section 10.6.

10.4 Public Sharing. If you choose to publish or share content publicly (or to other users), you understand it may be viewed, reused, saved, shared, or remixed by others depending on the features and permissions you select. Public content may appear in feeds, search results, marketing materials, or other channels.

10.5 Removal of User Content. We may remove User Content that violates these Terms, our Policies, or applicable law, or that we believe creates risk for users, PATH, or third parties.

10.6 Deleting Content / Closing Your Account. You may be able to delete User Content or close your account. However:

  • copies may remain in backups for a limited period; and

  • if you shared content with others and they copied or reshared it, we may not be able to retrieve or delete those copies.

11. Community Features, Collaboration, and Shared Spaces (If Offered)

11.1 Spaces / Teams / Workspaces. If the Services permit group collaboration (e.g., teams, workspaces, or shared libraries), administrators may be able to manage members and content. You are responsible for what you share and who you share it with.

11.2 Admin Responsibilities. If you create or administer a shared environment, you agree to enforce any rules you set and ensure they do not conflict with these Terms.

11.3 PATH’s Role. PATH may, but is not required to, monitor shared areas. We may restrict a user’s ability to create or manage shared spaces at our discretion.

12. PATH Content and Third-Party Content Licenses

12.1 PATH Content License. PATH grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive license to use PATH Content as permitted by the Services and these Terms.

12.2 Third-Party Content. Third-Party Content may be subject to separate licenses. You agree to comply with any applicable third-party terms that govern that content.

12.3 Commercial Use. Some content may be labeled for “commercial use” and other content may be restricted. You are responsible for complying with usage restrictions and ensuring you have the necessary rights for your intended use.

17. Disclaimers

17.1 As-Is. THE SERVICES, PATH CONTENT, AND THIRD-PARTY CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.”

17.2 No Warranties. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PATH DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND TITLE.

17.3 No Guarantee. We do not guarantee that:

  • the Services will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free;

  • content will always be available;

  • outputs generated using tools will be accurate, suitable, or lawful for your purpose; or

  • private content will never become accessible due to user error, third-party compromise, or technical issues.

18. Limitation of Liability

18.1 Exclusion of Certain Damages. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PATH WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION.

18.2 Liability Cap. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, PATH’S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF:

  • $100 USD, OR

  • the amount you paid PATH (if any) for the Services in the six (6) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim.

18.3 Basis of the Bargain. You agree these limitations are a fundamental part of the agreement between you and PATH.

19. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless PATH, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to:

  • your use of the Services;

  • your User Content;

  • your violation of these Terms or applicable law; or

  • your violation of any third-party rights.

20. Termination

20.1 Your Choice. You may stop using the Services at any time and may close your account where available.

20.2 Our Choice. We may suspend or terminate your access if we reasonably believe you violated these Terms or if necessary to protect the Services, users, or third parties.

20.3 Effect of Termination. Upon termination, your license to use the Services ends. Sections that by their nature should survive will survive (including IP, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and dispute resolution).

21. Governing Law

These Terms and any dispute arising out of them are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law rules—except where consumer protection laws require otherwise.

22. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement

22.1 Informal Resolution First. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us and attempt to resolve the issue informally by providing a written description of your dispute and the relief requested.

22.2 Arbitration Agreement. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, you and PATH agree that any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (“Claim”) will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its applicable rules.

22.3 Arbitration Location / Remote Option. Unless otherwise required by law, arbitration will take place in Delaware (or remotely by video/phone if permitted by the arbitrator and rules). The arbitrator may award any relief that a court could award on an individual basis.

22.4 Class Action Waiver. YOU AND PATH AGREE THAT CLAIMS MAY ONLY BE BROUGHT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. NO CLASS ACTIONS, CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CONSOLIDATED CLAIMS, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS ARE PERMITTED.

22.5 Court for Certain Relief. Either party may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to protect intellectual property rights or to prevent unauthorized access or misuse, where permitted by law.

22.6 Time Limit. Any Claim must be brought within one (1) year after it arises, unless applicable law requires a longer period.

22.7 Severability of Arbitration Provisions. If a portion of this arbitration section is found unenforceable, the remainder remains in effect. If the class-action waiver is found unenforceable, this arbitration section may be severed as appropriate.

23. Mass Arbitration Process (If Applicable)

If twenty-five (25) or more similar Claims are filed against PATH by the same or coordinated counsel, the parties agree to use a staged bellwether process intended to promote efficiency. Unless prohibited by law or the arbitration provider’s rules, the parties will:

  • select an initial set of cases to proceed first (e.g., 10 per side);

  • pause filing/fees for remaining matters until those bellwethers are resolved; and

  • attempt mediation after staged sets before continuing.
    A court of competent jurisdiction may enforce this section, including to prevent abusive mass filings, to the extent permitted by law.

24. Opt-Out of Arbitration

You may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice within 30 days of first accepting these Terms (or within 30 days of any material update to the arbitration section, if applicable).

Your notice must include:

  • your name,

  • your account email,

  • your username (if applicable),

  • your mailing address, and

  • a clear statement that you are opting out of arbitration.

Send to: PATH TECHNOLOGY INC., Attn: Arbitration Opt-Out, (insert mailing address).

Opting out means you and PATH may resolve disputes in court rather than arbitration, subject to these Terms and applicable law.

25. Notices and Electronic Communications

You consent to receive notices electronically, including via email, in-app notices, or posting to the Services. Electronic notices are considered delivered when sent or posted.

26. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we will provide notice as required by law. Continuing to use the Services after changes become effective constitutes acceptance. If you disagree, your option is to stop using the Services and close your account.

27. Severability and Waiver

27.1 Severability. If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.

27.2 Waiver. If PATH does not enforce a provision, that does not mean PATH waives the right to enforce it later.

28. Assignment

You may not assign these Terms without PATH’s prior written consent. PATH may assign these Terms (including to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets).

29. Third-Party Licensed Content Notices (Template Section)

The Services may include content licensed from third parties, including but not limited to stock photos, music, fonts, or video assets. Such content may carry restrictions. Without limiting the rest of these Terms:

  • Some licensed content may be restricted from use in logos, trademarks, or on a stand-alone basis.

  • Some licensed content may be restricted from print use or use outside the Services.

  • Some licensed content may prohibit uses that are offensive, unlawful, defamatory, pornographic, or that suggest endorsement.

  • Some music or audio content may be restricted from use in podcasts, TV, SVOD, radio, ads, or paid placements, unless separately licensed.

  • Providers may require attribution or impose additional limitations.

You are responsible for complying with any content-specific terms shown in the Services or provided by the underlying licensor.
