2. TYPES OF USERS

2.1 - You must be 13 years or older to use this Service.Users of Kaleidos’ Products & Services can be classified into different categories, depending on their role. You can find a broad description of the main roles and their major permissions below:
- “Customer”: the Customer is a User that has acquired a free or a paid subscription to Kaleidos’ Products & Services. The Customer is responsible for adding End Users to its different workspaces (for now Penpot teams) and for appointing Administrators for each of its workspaces. The Customer can be either a natural or a legal person, provided that they are acting in their professional capacity.
- “End User”: the End User is a User that has been added to a Customer’s workspace or a specific project (for instance, when your employer subscribes to Kaleidos’ Products & Services and adds you to a workspace, your employer will be, for the purposes of these Terms and Conditions, the Customer, while you will be an End User). As an End User, you acknowledge that you may be removed from a workspace or project by your Customer and/or by an Administrator.

- “Administrator”: an Administrator is an End User that has been appointed by the Customer as having admin rights to a specific workspace.

At Kaleidos, we are aware of the importance of the open-source movement, and we firmly believe in the advantages it offers to the whole Internet and programming community. For that reason, most of the modules of Kaleidos’ Products & Services are offered under an open-source license. However, please, note that certain modules of Kaleidos’ Products & Services are proprietary, and we offer them under our own license.

6.2 Kaleidos’ Intellectual Property Rights

Kaleidos’ Products & Services open-source modules are licensed under open-source licenses (such as Mozilla Public License 2.0 (MPL 2.0) and other licenses endorsed by the Open-Source Initiative). Please, note that, when accessing and using our open-source modules you must comply with the terms of the corresponding open-source license.

6.3 User Content

You (or the Customer in which projects you are working) will remain the sole owner of the content you upload to Kaleidos’ Products & Services.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you grant Kaleidos (and all its authorized service providers) a worldwide, non-exclusive and non-transferable (except in the context of Kaleidos’ business sale or transfer) license to host, copy, access, process and transmit the content you upload to Kaleidos’ Products & Services in order for Kaleidos to be able to: (i) provide you with the services and functionalities of Kaleidos’ Products & Services; (ii) improve Kaleidos’ Products & Services, including for analyzing metadata related to the User’s dashboard and generating statistics that allow Kaleidos to make Users recommendations on how to make the most of Kaleidos’ Products & Services and improve their working efficiency. For the sake of clarity, we will only analyze metadata (such as the length of a task title, the number of Users assigned to a task, the size of the attachments, etc.), but we will not analyze the text and contents themselves (such as the name of the task title, the name of the Users assigned to a task, the content of an attachment, etc.).

If you provide any feedback (including any ideas and suggestion) to Kaleidos, you agree that Kaleidos will be free to use, disclose, reproduce, modify, sublicense, transfer, distribute and exploit said feedback in any manner and without compensating you.
Kaleidos does not pre-screen the content (including any data or feedback) uploaded by Users. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Kaleidos has the right (but not the obligation) to remove, in its sole discretion, any content that Kaleidos reasonably believes breaches this Terms and Conditions, any applicable law or any third-party rights.

6.4 Other Users’ Content

When you access other Users’ public projects, you agree to contribute to said public projects in good faith, which means that you shall refrain from accessing public projects with the sole purposes of boycotting them, making them useless or damaging them in any way.

6.5 Fonts Licensing and Usage

By uploading third party-owned fonts from your local machine to Penpot you understand that you will direct and cause Penpot to store such fonts on its servers. Penpot also allows you to activate font providers that might call to third party-owned web fonts which are hosted on such third parties’ services. In either case, you will be able to share these fonts with other users with whom you are collaborating on a team. It is ultimately your sole responsibility to ensure that you or your organization possess sufficient rights to use, store on Penpot, and redistribute the fonts for use by your team members, and all users with whom you share the content stored at Penpot. Bear in mind that some of these uses may require you to get extended rights from the font licensor. Before uploading a font to Penpot or using a font from a third-party font provider, it is recommended that you consult the font licensor’s license agreement. Penpot holds the right to restrict or remove the use or storage of fonts that could bring any type of licensing conflicts.
