Terms of Service
Dated: March 17, 2021
Welcome to Haske247!
Introduction
Thank you for using the Haske247 platform and the products, services and features we make available to you as part of the platform (collectively, the “Service”).
Our Service
The Service allows you to discover, watch and share videos and other content, provides a forum for people to connect, inform, and inspire others across the globe, and acts as a distribution platform for original content creators and advertisers large and small. We provide lots of information about our products and how to use them in our Help Center. Amongst other things, you can find out about Haske247 Kids, the Haske247 Partner Program and Haske247 Paid Memberships and Purchases. You can also read all about enjoying content on other devices like your television, your games console, or even BIDBit Multimedia Home.
Your Service Provider
The entity providing the Service is BIDBit Multimedia LTD, a company operating under the laws of Delaware, located at No. 7 Tahir House Zoo Road Kano Nigeria (referred to as “Haske247”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). References to Haske247’s “Affiliates” in these terms means the other companies within the Alphabet Inc. corporate group.
Applicable Terms
Your use of the Service is subject to these terms, the Haske247 Community Guidelines and the Policy, Safety and Copyright Policies (together, the “Agreement”). Your Agreement with us will also include the Advertising on Haske247 Policies if you provide advertising or sponsorships to the Service or incorporate paid promotions in your Content.
Please read this Agreement carefully and make sure you understand it. If you do not understand the Agreement, or do not accept any part of it, then you may not use the Service.
Who may use the Service?
Age Requirements
You may use the Service if you are at least 13 years old; however, children of all ages may use the Service and Haske247 Kids (where available) if enabled by a parent or legal guardian.
Permission by Parent or Guardian
If you are under 18, you must have your parent or legal guardian’s permission to use the Service. Please have them read this Agreement with you.
If you are a parent or legal guardian of a user under the age of 18, by allowing your child to use the Service, you are subject to the terms of this Agreement and responsible for your child’s activity on the Service. You can find tools and resources to help you manage your family’s experience on Haske247 (including how to enable a child under the age of 13 to use the Service and Haske247 Kids) in our Help Center and through BIDBit Multimedia’s Family Link.
Businesses
If you are using the Service on behalf of a company or organisation, you confirm to us that you have authority to act on behalf of that entity, and that entity accepts this Agreement.
Your Use of the Service
Content on the Service
The content on the Service includes videos, audio (for example music and other sounds), graphics, photos, text (such as comments and scripts), branding (including trade names, trademarks, service marks, or logos), interactive features, software, metrics, and other materials whether provided by you, Haske247 or a third party (collectively, “Content”). Content may be provided to the Service and distributed by our users and Haske247 is a provider of hosting services for such Content. Content is the responsibility of the person or entity that provides it to the Service. If you see any Content you believe does not comply with this Agreement, such as by violating the Community Guidelines or the law, you can report it to us.
BIDBit Multimedia Accounts and Haske247 Channels
You can use parts of the Service, such as browsing and searching for Content, without having a BIDBit Multimedia account. However, you do need a BIDBit Multimedia account to use some features. With a BIDBit Multimedia account, you may be able to like videos, subscribe to channels, create your own Haske247 channel, and more. You can follow these instructions to create a BIDBit Multimedia account.
Creating a Haske247 channel will give you access to additional features and functions, such as uploading videos, making comments or creating playlists. Here are some details about how to create your own Haske247 channel.
To protect your BIDBit Multimedia account, keep your password confidential. You should not reuse your BIDBit Multimedia account password on third-party applications. Learn more about keeping your BIDBit Multimedia account secure, including what to do if you learn of any unauthorised use of your password or BIDBit Multimedia account.
Your Information
Our Privacy Policy explains how we treat your personal data and protect your privacy when you use the Service. The Haske247 Kids Privacy Notice provides additional information about our privacy practices that are specific to Haske247 Kids.
We will process any audio or audiovisual content uploaded by you to the Service in accordance with the Haske247 Data Processing Terms, except in cases where you uploaded such content for personal purposes or household activities. Learn More.
Permissions and Restrictions
You may access and use the Service as made available to you, as long as you comply with this Agreement and the law. You may view or listen to Content for your personal, non-commercial use. You may also show Haske247 videos through the embeddable Haske247 player.
The following restrictions apply to your use of the Service. You are not allowed to:
access, reproduce, download, distribute, transmit, broadcast, display, sell, license, alter, modify or otherwise use any part of the Service or any Content except: (a) as specifically permitted by the Service; (b) with prior written permission from Haske247 and, if applicable, the respective rights holders; or (c) as permitted by applicable law;

Reservation
Any right not expressly granted to you in this Agreement remains the right of Haske247 or the respective rights holders. This means, for example, that using the Service does not give you ownership of any intellectual property rights in the Content you access (including any branding used on or displayed in the Service).
Changes to the Service
Haske247 is constantly changing and improving the Service. We may also need to alter or discontinue the Service, or any part of it, in order to make performance or security improvements, change functionality and features, make changes to comply with law, or prevent illegal activities on or abuse of our systems. We will always consider and balance the impact of such changes on the use of the Service. Whenever reasonably possible, we will provide notice when we discontinue or make material changes to our Service that will have an adverse impact on the use of our Service. However, there will be times when we need to make such changes without notice, such as where we need to take action to improve the security and operability of our Service, prevent abuse, or meet our legal requirements.
Your Content and Conduct
Uploading Content
If you have a Haske247 channel, you may be able to upload Content to the Service. You may use your Content to promote your business or artistic enterprise. If you choose to upload Content, you must not submit to the Service any Content that does not comply with this Agreement or the law. For example, the Content you submit must not include third-party intellectual property (such as copyrighted material) unless you have permission from that party or are otherwise legally entitled to do so. You are legally responsible for the Content you submit to the Service. We may use automated systems that analyze your Content to help detect infringement and abuse, such as spam, malware, and illegal content.
Rights you Grant
You retain all of your ownership rights in your Content. In short, what belongs to you stays yours. However, we do require you to grant certain rights to Haske247 and other users of the Service, as described below.
Licence to Haske247
By providing Content to the Service, you grant to Haske247 a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicense able license to use that Content (including to reproduce, distribute, modify, display and perform it) for the purpose of operating, promoting, and improving the Service.
Licence to Other Users
You also grant each other user of the Service a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to access your Content through the Service, and to use that Content (including to reproduce, distribute, modify, display, and perform it) only as enabled by a feature of the Service.
Duration of Licence
The licences granted by you continue until the Content is removed as described below. Once removed, the licences will terminate, except where the operation of the Service, use of Content permitted before your removal, or the law requires otherwise. For example, removal of Content by you does not require Haske247 to: (a) recall Content that is being used by other users within any limited offline viewing functionality of the Service; or (b) delete copies we reasonably need to keep for legal purposes.
Removing Your Content
You may remove your Content from the Service at any time. You also have the option to make a copy of your Content before removing it. You must remove your Content if you no longer have the rights required by these terms.
Removal of Content By Haske247
If we reasonably believe that any Content is in breach of this Agreement or may cause harm to Haske247, our users, or third parties, we may remove or take down some or all of such Content. We will notify you with the reason for our action unless we reasonably believe that to do so: (a) would violate the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority, or would otherwise risk legal liability for Haske247 or our Affiliates; (b) would compromise an investigation or the integrity or operation of the Service; or (c) would cause harm to any user, other third party, Haske247 or our Affiliates. You can learn more about reporting and enforcement, including how to appeal on the Troubleshooting page of our Help Center.
Copyright Protection
We provide information to help copyright holders manage their intellectual property online in our Haske247 Copyright Center. If you believe your copyright has been infringed on the Service, please send us a notice.
We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement according to the process in our Haske247 Copyright Center, where you can also find information about how to resolve a copyright strike. Haske247’s policies provide for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of repeat infringers’ access to the Service.
Account Suspension and Termination
Terminations by You
You may stop using the Service at any time. You can also delete the Service from your BIDBit Multimedia Account, which involves closing your Haske247 channel and removing your data, with the option to download a copy of your data first.
Terminations and Suspensions by Haske247 for Cause
Haske247 may suspend or terminate your access, your BIDBit Multimedia account, or your BIDBit Multimedia account’s access to all or part of the Service if: (a) you materially or repeatedly breach this Agreement; (b) we are required to do so to comply with a legal requirement or a court order; or (c) we reasonably believe there has been conduct that creates liability or harm to any user, other third party, Haske247 or our Affiliates.
Terminations by Haske247 for Service Changes
Haske247 may terminate your access, or your BIDBit Multimedia account’s access to all or part of the Service if Haske247 reasonably believes that its provision of the Service to you is no longer commercially viable.
Notice for Termination or Suspension
We will notify you with the reason for termination or suspension by Haske247 unless we reasonably believe that to do so: (a) would violate the law or the direction of a legal enforcement authority, or would otherwise risk legal liability for Haske247 or our Affiliates; (b) would compromise an investigation or the integrity or operation of the Service; or (c) would cause harm to any user, other third party, Haske247 or our Affiliates. Where Haske247 is terminating your access for Service changes, where reasonably possible, you will be provided with sufficient time to export your Content from the Service.
Effect of Account Suspension or Termination
If your BIDBit Multimedia account is terminated or your BIDBit Multimedia account’s access to the Service is restricted, you may continue using certain aspects of the Service (such as viewing only) without an account, and this Agreement will continue to apply to such use. If you believe your BIDBit Multimedia account has been terminated in error, you can appeal using this form.
About Software in our Service
Downloadable Software
When the Service requires or includes downloadable software (such as the Haske247 Studio application), you give permission for that software to update automatically on your device once a new version or feature is available, subject to your device settings. Unless that software is governed by additional terms which provide a licence, Haske247 gives you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable and non-exclusive licence to use the software provided to you by Haske247 as part of the Service. This licence is for the sole purpose of enabling you to use and enjoy the benefit of the Service as provided by Haske247, in the manner permitted by this Agreement. You are not allowed to copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the software, or to reverse-engineer or attempt to extract the source code of that software, unless laws prohibit these restrictions or you have Haske247’s written permission.
Open Source
Some software used in our Service may be offered under an open source licence that we make available to you. There may be provisions in an open source license that expressly override some of these terms, so please be sure to read those licenses.

Third-Party Links
The Service may contain links to third-party websites and online services that are not owned or controlled by Haske247.
