Summary

This document sets out the rules for using NVIDIA NIM's software: you get a limited license to use it, but NVIDIA keeps all ownership rights and you cannot transfer or sublicense access to others. You are responsible for ensuring anyone you allow to use the software is bound by equivalent terms, and you must comply with export and sanctions laws. NVIDIA disclaims all warranties, limits what damages either side can recover, and can suspend your access if any payment is overdue.

Analysis

The NVIDIA NIM Terms of Use establish the conditions under which customers may access and use NVIDIA's Software Offerings, granting a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license for the Term to install, use, and reproduce the Software while NVIDIA retains sole and exclusive ownership of all Intellectual Property Rights. Customers bear downstream contractual obligations, including binding their End Users to agreements at least as protective as the Agreement and complying with all applicable export, import, trade, and economic sanctions laws, including U.S. Export Administration Regulations and OFAC regulations. All use must conform to NVIDIA's Trustworthy AI terms, and any Feedback submitted by Customer is licensed to NVIDIA on a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable, worldwide, and transferable basis. Liability is substantially circumscribed: NVIDIA disclaims all warranties of any kind, excludes indirect, special, incidental, punitive, and consequential damages to the maximum extent permitted by law, and caps aggregate liability for Enterprise Product claims at net fees paid in the twelve months preceding the triggering event. Payment obligations are non-cancelable and non-refundable upon invoicing, and NVIDIA reserves the right to suspend Software Offerings for overdue payments and to update the Agreement over time.

What this means for you

As a customer, your license to use NVIDIA NIM's Software Offerings is limited, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable, meaning you cannot pass rights to others except as the Agreement expressly permits. Any Feedback you submit grants NVIDIA a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use it, with no ability to later revoke or seek compensation. You are contractually obligated to ensure your own End Users are bound by agreements at least as protective as your own terms with NVIDIA, comply with all applicable export and sanctions laws, and keep payments current — with overdue payment risking suspension of your access. Order Forms are non-cancelable and fees are non-refundable unless an Order Form expressly states otherwise, so you should review any Order Form carefully before committing.
