Intellectual Property Rights Policy

All right, title, and interest in and to the platform, source code, dashboards, design, branding, trademarks, service marks, logos, content, datasets, AI and machine-learning models, weights, APIs, documentation, and any improvements or derivatives belong exclusively to ShipHub™ or its licensors and are protected by U.S. and international intellectual-property laws.

Subject to your compliance with the Legal Center, ShipHub™ grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and use the Services for your internal business operations. No other license is granted.

AI-generated outputs (e.g., quote suggestions, classification suggestions, recommended routes) are provided for informational purposes and are not legal, customs, tax, or compliance advice. ShipHub™ retains all rights in the models and outputs; you receive a use-license to outputs solely for the booking that requested them.

You retain ownership of content you submit but grant ShipHub™ a worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, process, transmit, modify, display, and use such content to operate, secure, and improve the Services, and to comply with law.

Claims of intellectual-property infringement should be sent to info@ikeocean.com with a description of the protected work, the allegedly infringing material, your contact details, a good-faith statement, and an under-penalty-of-perjury statement of authority. ShipHub™ follows DMCA-style takedown procedures where applicable.

This document is governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Georgia, United States of America, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to this document or the Services shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, with the seat of arbitration in Atlanta, Fulton County, Georgia. The arbitrator's award shall be final, non-appealable, and enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.

You expressly waive any right to a trial by jury and any right to participate in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action against ShipHub™. Any claim must be brought within one (1) year of the event giving rise to it or be permanently barred.

You agree that your electronic acceptance of this document — whether via checkbox, click, API authentication, or continued use of the Services — has the same legal force and effect as a hand-written signature under the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN), the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (UETA), and any equivalent law in your jurisdiction.

ShipHub™ retains a server-side acceptance record including timestamp, IP address, document version, and account identifier, which shall constitute prima facie evidence of acceptance in any proceeding.

IKEOCEAN® LLC, doing business as ShipHub™ ("ShipHub™", "we", "us", or "our") may amend this document at any time by posting an updated version inside the Legal Center at /legal. Continued access to or use of the ShipHub™ platform, application, APIs, dashboards, marketplace, agent network, partner portal, or any service offered by ShipHub™ (collectively, the "Services") after the effective date constitutes binding acceptance of the revised document.

By creating an account, clicking an acceptance checkbox, signing electronically, submitting a booking, transmitting an API call, or otherwise using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by this document and every other policy referenced in the Legal Center.

Where any term of this document conflicts with a signed master services agreement executed between you and ShipHub™, the executed agreement controls only as to the conflicting provision; all other provisions of this document remain in full force.

Legal notices to ShipHub™ must be sent in writing to: IKEOCEAN® LLC, doing business as ShipHub™, Legal Department, Atlanta, Georgia, USA, with a copy to info@ikeocean.com. Notices to you may be delivered via the email address on file, in-platform notification, or any reasonable electronic means; electronic notice is deemed received upon transmission.
