TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ATOPIA’S SELF SERVE PLATFORM

Effective Date: 14.04.2025

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User")

and Atopia Space GmbH ("Atopia," "we," "our," or "**us"), organized under the laws of MUNICH,

Germany, with registered offices at Erzgießereistraße 19, 80335 Munich, Germany, governing your

use of the Atopia self-service software platform (the "Platform").

By accessing, registering for, or using the Platform in any capacity, you agree to be legally bound by

these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Platform.

Overview of Atopia: Atopia provides an online tool that enables creators to design 3D virtual gallery

spaces through a drag-and-drop interface. Users can create and customize as many gallery designs as

they like using provided templates and tools, and upload their own content (e.g. images, 3D models) to

populate the galleries. To publish a gallery live (making it publicly accessible via the internet and in

VR, and allowing it to be shared or embedded on other sites), the User must pay the applicable fee.

Each published gallery space (“Live Gallery”) can be viewed and shared by others, and may be

considered for featuring by Atopia’s curatorial team (e.g. inclusion on Atopia’s website homepage,

featured sections, or special VR exhibitions). The Service includes different tiers or plans which may

offer varying levels of features, as described on our website or app. Atopia reserves the right to modify

or discontinue any part of the Service, or to change which features are offered in which tier.

1. Scope of Services

1.1 The Platform provides Users—including, but not limited to, artists, curators, creatives, and

collectors—with tools to design, configure, and publish virtual exhibition spaces ("Virtual Galleries")

using Atopia’s proprietary drag-and-drop interface and design templates.

1.2 Users may register for free, create an unlimited number of draft galleries, and preview experiences.

A subscription fee is charged when a User elects to publish a Virtual Gallery live (each, a "Live

Gallery").

1.3 The publication of a gallery as a Live Gallery enables the following functionalities: (a) public

accessibility via web or VR; (b) the ability to share or embed the Gallery on external websites; (c)

eligibility for consideration by Atopia’s curatorial team for prominent placement on Atopia's platform,

including web and VR showcases.

1.4 The applicable subscription fee is charged per Live Gallery, not per user account. If a User

publishes and maintains multiple Live Galleries, a separate subscription applies to each.

1.5 Atopia’s curatorial team reserves the full and exclusive right to determine, at its sole discretion and

without obligation to provide justification, whether any content is approved for display on the

Platform or for prominent placement. Criteria may include, but are not limited to, violations of

intellectual property rights, inappropriate or harassing content, poor quality, or content inconsistent

with the Platform’s curatorial standards.

2. Intellectual Property and Licensing

2.1 User Content. (a) "User Content" means any material you upload, submit, post, or otherwise make

available on the Platform, including but not limited to images, text, multimedia files, audio, video, 3D

assets, and curated gallery configurations. (b) Users retain all intellectual property rights in their User

Content. Atopia does not claim ownership of any User Content submitted through the Platform.

2.2 License to Atopia. By publishing a Live Gallery, you grant Atopia a non-exclusive, worldwide,

royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, display, publicly perform, distribute, and

adapt the User Content for the following purposes: (i) providing and improving the Platform; (ii)

enabling sharing and embedding features; (iii) marketing, PR, and other promotional uses during the

time the Live Gallery remains published; (iv) storing content for archival purposes after deactivation,

and maintaining previously published promotional material containing such content.

2.3 Post-Unpublishing Use. Once a Gallery is unpublished: (a) Atopia shall not engage in any new

promotional use of such content without your express written consent; (b) Atopia may retain

previously created promotional media (e.g., social media posts, press screenshots).

2.4 Mutual Promotion Rights. While a Gallery remains live, both Atopia and the User have the right

to publicly refer to and share the Live Gallery for marketing or press purposes.

2.5 Platform IP. All rights, title, and interest in the Platform, including but not limited to its

underlying software, templates, VR environments, interfaces, layout, and any associated branding, are

and remain the sole property of Atopia and/or its licensors. Users are granted a limited, non-

transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive license to use the Platform solely in accordance with

these Terms.

2.6 f. Feedback. If you provide Atopia with any suggestions, ideas, feedback, or recommendations on

improving the Service (“Feedback”), we will be free to use, modify, and incorporate such Feedback

without any obligation to you. You agree that any Feedback you submit is non-confidential and given

voluntarily, and you grant Atopia a perpetual, irrevocable, free license to use it as we see fit.

3. User Responsibilities and Conduct

3.1 You are solely responsible for ensuring that you have obtained all necessary rights, licenses,

permissions, and consents for any User Content uploaded to or published through the Platform.

3.2 By submitting content, you warrant that such content: (a) does not infringe the intellectual

property, moral, privacy, or publicity rights of any third party; (b) does not contain harmful, offensive,

defamatory, or unlawful material; (c) complies with all applicable laws and regulations; (d) is free

from viruses, malware, or any code that could damage or interfere with the Platform.

3.3 Users may not:

• use the Platform to distribute unsolicited communications or spam;

2• reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code from the Platform;

• circumvent any access or usage restrictions;

• misrepresent their identity or affiliation.

3.4 Atopia reserves the right to remove, restrict, or suspend access to any User Content or account that

violates these Terms.

3.5 You agree to use the Platform in a respectful and lawful manner. When creating galleries or

otherwise using the Service, you must not:

• Upload or share content that violates any law or regulation, including but not limited to

copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property laws, privacy rights, or any contractual

obligations. You are solely responsible for ensuring you have all necessary rights

(licenses, consents, permissions) to all content you upload – for example, you must only use

images, music, or videos that you own or have the legal right to use in your gallery.

• Post any content that is obscene, pornographic, excessively violent, defamatory, libelous,

harassing, hateful, discriminatory, or otherwise offensive or objectionable. This includes

content that promotes violence or hatred against individuals or groups, or that constitutes hate

speech or harassment.

• Post content that is infringing (unauthorized use of someone else’s work), pirated, or that

violates any party’s rights of privacy or publicity.

• Include any malware, viruses, or malicious code in your uploads, or otherwise attempt to

interfere with the operation of the Platform or other users’ access to it.

• Engage in any activity that exploits, harms, or threatens to harm minors (or anyone) or that

solicits personal information from others in an illegal manner.

• Use the Service for any fraudulent or misleading purposes, or impersonate any person or

entity.

• Circumvent or attempt to circumvent any security or access controls of the Platform, or probe

or test the vulnerability of our systems.

3.6 Atopia reserves the right (but has no obligation) to monitor User Content and conduct on the

Platform. We may remove, delete, un-publish, or disable access to any User Content at any time

at our sole discretion, with or without notice to you, if we determine that it violates these Terms,

infringes someone’s rights, or for any other reason. This includes the right to take down galleries that

we deem unsuitable for our public platform or that come to our attention as potentially problematic.

Atopia’s curatorial team additionally has complete discretion in selecting galleries for official

featuring on our site or in VR events—being featured is not guaranteed and is not a right, and we

may refuse to feature or may withdraw a feature for any reason (such as concerns about IP ownership,

quality standards, inappropriate content, or any other reason we consider sufficient).

You understand that publishing your content on a public platform carries the risk that it may be

viewed or shared by others. Atopia is not liable for how third parties may use your content if you

have made it publicly available through our Service. Nonetheless, if you believe another user is

misusing your content or violating your rights (for example, someone copied your gallery or uploaded

content that infringes your copyright), please contact us at hello@atopia.com to report it. We have

policies in place to address such issues. Atopia will make good-faith efforts to investigate and address

reported violations, but makes no guarantee that all inappropriate content will be caught or removed.

4. Fees and Payments

4.1 Publishing a Gallery as a Live Gallery requires payment of a subscription fee per published

Gallery. Fees and tier structures are described on the Platform and may be updated at any time.

4.2 Payments are processed via Stripe, Inc. Users agree to be bound by Stripe’s Terms of Service and

Privacy Policy. Atopia does not store any sensitive payment information.

4.3 Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle unless canceled prior to renewal.

Users may cancel via account settings. Cancellation terminates the subscription at the end of the

current billing period.

4.4 No refunds shall be provided for unused periods, early terminations, or partial use, except where

required by law. EU consumers explicitly waive their 14-day statutory withdrawal right by activating

Live Gallery services immediately upon payment.

5. Tiered Features and Modifications

5.1 Atopia may offer multiple subscription tiers with varying features. Access to certain functionalities

may depend on your chosen plan.

5.2 Atopia reserves the right to modify, enhance, or discontinue any service feature, subscription tier,

or functionality at its sole discretion.

5.3 Placement, featuring, or promotion of a Gallery on the Platform or VR environments is not

guaranteed and remains within the sole discretion of Atopia’s curatorial team.

5.4 If Atopia offers multiple plans or add-on features (for example, paying for additional gallery slots

or premium templates), any upgrade fees or changes in plan will be explained at the time of

selection. Changing plans might trigger a pro-rated charge or new billing schedule, which will be

made clear to you. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for our services or any components thereof in

any manner and at any time. If we increase the price of a subscription or introduce new fees, we will

provide advance notice to existing subscribers and such changes will apply only from the next

renewal. If you do not agree with a price change, your subscription will be cancelled before the new

rate takes effect.

5.5 You acknowledge that the Platform is an evolving product. While we will try to inform users of

major changes (for example, significant feature removals or upcoming maintenance downtime),

Atopia has no obligation to continue providing any feature or aspect of the Service for any minimum

period, unless such continuity is explicitly promised in a separate Service Level Agreement or

mandatory by law.

5.6 Atopia also has sole discretion over the layout and structure of its website and VR spaces. We may

organize galleries into sections (e.g. categories, newest, featured) and determine which galleries

appear on the homepage or other high-visibility areas. Using the Service does not guarantee any

4particular level of exposure. We might feature some galleries in promotional spots while others are

only accessible via direct link or search. By using the Service, you understand that these decisions are

up to Atopia, and we may change how and where content appears.

6. Data Privacy and Protection

6.1 Atopia collects and processes personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection

Regulation (GDPR). For full details, refer to our Privacy Policy.

6.3 Users uploading third-party personal data (e.g., portraits, identifiable likenesses) are fully

responsible for ensuring that such data use is lawful and that all necessary permissions have been

obtained.

6.4 Atopia may provide tools or settings to control privacy to Users (for instance, making a gallery

unlisted or private within certain groups), and it’s your responsibility to use these settings as needed.

Note, however, that by default a published gallery is public.

7. Warranties and Disclaimers
