I’m positive some people don’t actually read it before checking off the box that they do. Myself included. (Wait, should I not be admitting that?)
But I decided to glance at it today. And first thing…
By registering for or using the Viki Services, either through Viki or via ■■■■■■■■, Inc (“■■■■■■■■”), you confirm that you are 18 years of age or more
Um. Wait, you have to be 18 to register an account? Because I’m pretty sure a large amount of contributors have yet to hit that age. I don’t see reason that this couldn’t have been the standard 13 y/o.
That was really the extent of my interest in the TOS, but then I just came across other things to wonder about…which don’t really concern the TOS all that much. But anyway.
You acknowledge and agree that the Viki Services is not and shall not function as an archive. Viki shall have no liability to you or any other person for loss, damage, or destruction to your Submission. You shall be solely responsible for maintaining independent archival and backup copies of any Submission
Obviously stuff happens and sometimes subs are lost. Especially since I manage a number of fan channels, there’s always a little nagging voice in my mind concerned about it.
Does anyone have any good ideas for backing up subs? I’ve fallen behind on it, but for my channels, I just end up copying the bulk translation page with rough times and the translations. If anything happens, at least that’s in tact?
If you do not have another agreement with Viki, you may link to the home page (and no other page) of the Site from your website, subject to the following
Can someone explain why that’d be? That we’re not supposed to link to specific pages?
This reminds me, by the way. Does anyone remember if Viki (or maybe Viikii) ever allowed embedding their videos? Why don’t they anymore?
