All as may be updated from time to time (collectively, the “Terms”).
If there is any contradiction between the Terms of Service and the Privacy Policy or the End User License Agreement, then the Terms of Service will take precedence only as they relate to the Radiant MLHub.
To use Radiant MLHub, you must have the capacity and, where necessary, be authorized to be legally bound by the Terms. If you don’t have legal authority and capacity, or if you disagree with any of the terms, Radiant Earth does not grant you a license to use Radiant MLHub.
By using Radiant MLHub and code, maps data, terrain data, photographic imagery, pixels, annotations, labels, training data, metadata, underlying technology, graphics, design, content, documentation, and related materials made available to you by Radiant Earth (collectively, the “Radiant Earth Content”), you understand, agree, and acknowledge that the Terms of Service constitutes a legally binding agreement between you and us and that your use of Radiant MLHub and the Radiant Earth Content shall indicate your conclusive and irrefutable acceptance of the Terms of Service.

We may change, modify, add, alter, remove portions of or otherwise update the Terms from time to time. When these changes are made, we will make a new copy of the Terms available at the URLs specified above, or such successor URLs that we may designate from time to time.
By continuing to use and access Radiant MLHub, you are agreeing to be bound by the then-current version of the Terms and any changes reflected therein.
If a modification is unacceptable to you, you may terminate the Terms in accordance with Section “Termination” below at any time.
