These Product-Specific Terms of Service are incorporated into and made part of the General Terms of Service between Customer and Lightcast. In the event of a conflict between these Product-Specific Terms of Service and the General Terms of Service, these Product-Specific Terms of Service will govern with respect to the subject matter herein.
- Description of Subscription Services
1.1. Lightcast will provide Licensee with access to Career Coach and/or Widget Builder (as detailed on the Order Form) for the following geography (“Data Region”): The counties primarily covered by a 100-mile radius from the Licensee's main location, with the option to switch to Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) or ZIP code level data during implementation. This standard geography may be modified based on Licensee’s purchase.
1.2. Initial delivery of Career Coach and Widget Builder requires implementation as described in Sections 3 and 4 of these Terms.
- Use of Career Coach and Widget Builder
2.1. Use of Career Coach. Career Coach allows anyone with access to Licensee’s Career Coach site to search and browse local careers, obtain relevant labor market information, and see the related education and training offered by Licensee. Lightcast encourages wide access to the Career Coach tool. Licensee is free to grant public or private access to Licensee’s Career Coach site, to allow access by other organizations (WIBs, high schools, etc.) that would benefit from Licensee’s Career Coach site, and to allow other websites to display a link to Licensee’s Career Coach site.
2.2. Use of Widget Builder. Unless specifically agreed in writing, Licensee may publish the widgets only on the Licensee’s primary institutional website. However, Licensee may make the widgets freely available to site visitors on the site where the widgets are published. Licensee may not make the source code for the Widget Builder or widgets available to any third party except as necessary to publish the widgets.
- Career Coach Implementation
3.1. If Career Coach is included in the Subscription Service Level, Lightcast shall create a customized Career Coach site for Licensee, hosted by Lightcast at https://yyyy.lightcastcc.com/ (with the yyyy portion of the URL reflecting Licensee’s organization with a name to be determined by the parties). The site will incorporate Licensee’s logo and will be linked to and from Licensee's website. Additional geographies for the site beyond the Data Region can be added upon request and will be included for an additional fee.
3.2. Career Coach will be created according to the following schedule:
3.2.1. Data collection and review phase (one week): Lightcast will scrape Licensee’s designated site location with the most updated list of Licensee's program offerings. Lightcast will collect all available electronic data regarding Licensee’s programs and degrees to create a draft Career Coach site. Licensee will have the opportunity to review the program to occupation mapping and propose changes to Lightcast. This step is applicable to educational institutions only.
3.2.2. Deliver Licensee's Live Career Coach Site (one week): Lightcast will push the site live. This site will be the final product and will incorporate any input received from Licensee.
3.3. Upon the Effective Date, Lightcast will begin creating Licensee’s Career Coach site following the above schedule. Lightcast will push the site live within fifteen working days of the latter of either 1) the subscription start date, or 2) receipt of the signed agreement.
3.4. Licensee agrees to make available one implementation coordinator to assist in the data collection and customization of Career Coach. Licensee agrees to take appropriate measures to make Career Coach visible to potential users and market Career Coach as appropriate.
3.5. Licensee will have the opportunity to review the site and propose changes to any customizable elements to Lightcast at any point within the contractual period. Lightcast will push the Career Coach site live following the above schedule but cannot guarantee the accuracy of data embedded in the site. Lightcast will continue to work with Licensee to correct any data on Licensee’s Career Coach site that is found to be incorrect after the site has been pushed live.
3.6. Lightcast will assist with site updates and maintenance as needed by phone, email, or video call to Licensee during the contract period, at no additional charge.

4.1. For Widget Builder, Lightcast will deliver to Licensee the Career Coach Widget Builder, an interface that generates multiple visualizations that the Licensee will be able to embed on their institutional website to display program and career data, allow visitors to discover careers of interest, and, if a client of Alumni Pathways, show outcomes of their past alumni for the Data Region (such embedded visualizations referred to in the Agreement as “widgets”).
4.2. Additional geographies for the Widget Builder beyond the Data Region can be added upon request and will be included for an additional fee.
4.3. To ensure the data in the Widget Builder maps to Licensee’s programs, Lightcast will scrape Licensee’s designated site location with the most updated list of Licensee’s program offerings. Licensee will have the opportunity to review the program to occupation mapping and propose changes to Lightcast to the date populating the Program and Interest Assessment widgets.
4.4. The Widget Builder will be delivered within two (2) weeks of the Effective Date.
4.5. Note that the Alumni widgets will not be available until the Licensee purchases Alumni Pathways and/or has a completed Alumni Pathways project.
