10. Do we need a special license to operate the channel?
No. However you will need to check the advertising laws for your state. There are some instances where public access channels cannot receive money for advertising when receiving federal funding for their channel.
11. Will we be subject to any special taxes for owning and operating the channel?
There are no taxes for online operations except for the items sold within the e-commerce solution.
12. How and where will our content (Intellectual Property) be archived?
Any content that is uploaded to our servers for VOD will remain yours. It is suggested that you also keep a copy of your content stored locally.
13. Will we be the sole owner of our produced content?
Yes. You are the primary owner of all content through the licensing agreement with USEdTV.
14. What will be the legal relationship between the school/district or church and USEdTV?
We are a provider of an online video broadcast/website template. All content is controlled by the school. We are not responsible for said content.
15. Is there a rescind period if we decide we don't want the system?
If you have any concerns with the video broadcast itself or the quality, we can arrange for a one time demo access. Unfortunately we cannot set up a template or give access to the template until all agreements are signed and at least the first month’s payment has cleared.
16. Why should I purchase a platform from you when your competitors provide it for free?
We get this question asked alot. Part of our platform includes the ad serving capabilites that the competition takes from you. While we do have a fee to cover our costs, all of the money that is created by the competition by them selling ads along with your content is essentialy taking money from your school. We belive that we should provide a quality product that allows you to create your own ad sales and take your school to the next level. Quality content + Viewers= Ad sales to the school. You get this only with USEducationTV.
