INTRODUCTION
This Terms of Service Agreement (“Agreement”) is an agreement between you (“you” or “user”) and BigWinnerPro.com, operated by 276 Media Inc.. (“Company”, “we”, or “us”). This Agreement governs your access to and use of BigWinnerPro.com’s play-for-fun online casino games and services, whether accessed via computer, mobile device, application, or any other technology (the “Services”). The Company is not responsible for any surcharges you incur from your cell phone or internet service provider as a result of the use of the Services. By using our Services or Website, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, including the Binding Arbitration Clause and Class Action Waiver described here, and the Privacy Policy (our “Privacy Policy”), which sets out our practices regarding the collection and use of personal information. If you do not agree to the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement, you may not access or otherwise use the Services.
We may, in our sole discretion, modify this Agreement with or without notice to you. The “Last Updated” date at the top of this Agreement will indicate when the latest modifications were made. By continuing to access and use the Services after this Agreement has been modified, you are agreeing to such modifications. Therefore, you should review this Agreement prior to each use of the Services. In addition, when using particular services or features or making purchases on the Services, you shall be subject to any posted guidelines or policies applicable to such services, features, or purchases that may be posted from time to time. All such guidelines or policies are hereby incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

BY USING OUR WEBSITE AND SERVICES, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ OUR TERMS OF SERVICE, UNDERSTAND THEM, AND AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS IN OUR TERMS OF SERVICE.
LICENSE
We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use our Services for your personal use as long as they do not violate any aspect of these Terms of Service or applicable law, including our intellectual property and other proprietary rights in and to the Services or the intellectual property rights of another party. We reserve the right to terminate or limit your access to our Services and/or the licenses granted herein for any reason (or no reason) and in our sole discretion.
You agree that you will not copy, attempt to reverse engineer, modify, translate, or disassemble our Services in whole or in part. You may not use or export or re-export our Services except as permitted under the law of Canada.
We reserve the right to, at any time, temporarily or permanently, modify or discontinue any features associated with the Services with or without notice and for any reason, including performing maintenance, repairs, or upgrades. We (and our licensors) remain the sole owner of all rights, title, and interest in the Services. We will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Services are unavailable at any time or for any period.
REGISTRATION; ELIGIBILITY
You are required to create an account on the Services in order to take advantage of certain features of the Services. You agree to provide true, current, complete, and accurate information as requested, and to update that information as soon as possible after any information changes. In order to confirm the accuracy of all account registration details you provide to us, we reserve the right to carry out verification checks on our own or through third-party service providers. When these checks are unable to verify that you are nineteen (19) years of age or over, or are unable to verify any other detail provided by you, we reserve the right to ask for additional proof. If we remain unable to confirm any detail provided by you within seventy-two (72) hours (or such other period as we may from time to time specify) of your account being opened, then we will suspend your account until we receive satisfactory proof, as determined in our sole discretion.

ACCOUNT SECURITY AND RESPONSIBILITY
You will create a password for your account on the Services. Your username will be your email address or Screen Name. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account and are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password and account. You agree to (i) immediately notify the Company of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (ii) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session. You agree to be responsible for all actions resulting from the use of your account on the Services, including actions resulting from unauthorized use of your account prior to you taking steps to prevent such occurrences by changing your password and notifying the Company.
ELIGIBILITY AND LEGAL COMPLIANCE
Participation in the Services is open only to residents of jurisdictions where participation is not prohibited by law, including by way of age. The Services are open to you only if you are the legal age of majority in the jurisdiction in which you reside. You cannot participate in the Services under any circumstances if you are not at least nineteen (19) years of age. The Company makes no representation that the Services are appropriate or available for use in all provinces, or that this Agreement complies with the laws of any other country. Users of the Services residing outside Canada do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with all laws, if and to the extent local laws are applicable. You agree that you will not access the Services from any territory where its contents are illegal, and that you, not the Company, are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
DORMANT ACCOUNTS AND ABANDONED ACCOUNTS
Your account will be deemed a “Dormant Account” if you fail to use it for a continuous period of three hundred sixty-five (365) days or more. Use of your account may consist of: (a) playing one or more of the games on the Services for Virtual Goods; or (b) purchasing Virtual Goods.
After your account has been deemed a Dormant Account and has remained inactive for an additional calendar month, your account shall be deemed an “Abandoned Account” and closed at a time solely determined by the Company.
If you return to the Services after your account has been deemed either a Dormant Account or an Abandoned Account, please contact our customer service team via email at support@bigwinnerpro.com for a review of your account.
TERMINATION AND DISCONTINUATION OF SERVICES
This Agreement is effective unless and until terminated by either you or the Company. You may terminate this Agreement and your Services account at any time, provided that you discontinue any further use of the Services. The Company may also terminate or suspend this Agreement and your account at any time and for any reason, without notice, and accordingly deny you access to the Services, including, without limitation, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that you fail to comply with any term of this Agreement or that your use of the Services is harmful to the interests of another user or the Company. Upon any termination of the Agreement, all achievements and Virtual Goods that a user has acquired may, at the Company’s sole discretion, be terminated and forfeited. You have no property rights in any achievements or Virtual Goods. Termination of this Agreement and your Services account for any reason will have no effect on any Promotion prizes you have won (other than Virtual Good prizes, which will terminate with your Services account).
The Company reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Services (or any part thereof) with or without notice. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement, you agree that the Company shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Services.
All provisions of this Agreement that, by their nature, are intended to survive termination of this Agreement shall survive.
VIRTUAL GOODS; RESPONSIBLE GAMING
When you perform certain activities through the Services (e.g., creating an account, logging in to the Services periodically, etc.), we may grant you Virtual Goods for use in playing games on the Services. The Services also allow you to purchase Virtual Goods with real money for use in playing games on the Services. Virtual Goods include in-game currency and may include trophies and other virtual items (collectively “Virtual Goods”). A Virtual Good is a set of rights to digital items, as licensed by the Company. Virtual Goods can never be redeemed for real money, goods, or any other item of monetary value from the Company or any other party. You understand that you have no right or title in Virtual Goods other than the extent of your limited license.
Your purchase of the limited license for Virtual Goods is final and is not refundable, exchangeable, or transferable, except at the Company’s sole discretion. You may not purchase, sell, or exchange Virtual Goods outside the Services. Doing so is a violation of this Agreement and may result in the termination of your account with the Services and/or legal action.
The Company retains the right to modify, manage, control, and/or eliminate your limited license with respect to Virtual Goods at its sole discretion. Prices and availability of limited licenses for Virtual Goods are subject to change without notice.
We encourage responsible use of the Services and request that you follow these simple guidelines: (a) Please establish limits for the Virtual Goods payments you are willing to make over any period of time before you start playing. (b) Use of the Services is not recommended if you are recovering from a dependency or are under the influence of alcohol or other substances. (c) Use of the Services is not recommended if it might interfere with your daily responsibilities.
COMMUNICATIONS OPT-IN
You expressly agree that as part of the Services, you will receive communications by text message, push notification, and/or email, including promotional communications from time to time. You may stop receiving promotional alerts via email by clicking the unsubscribe link contained in such emails or by emailing your request to opt out. You may stop receiving push notifications by disabling push notifications on your mobile device. You may stop receiving promotional alerts via text message by responding “stop” to any promotional text received. You may not opt out of transactional emails.
The Company is not responsible for any surcharges you incur from your cell phone or internet service provider as a result of the use of the Services.
PRIVACY
Use of the Services is subject to the terms of our Privacy Policy, which are hereby incorporated into and made part of this Agreement. By using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by the terms of our Privacy Policy. We reserve the right, and you authorize us, to use information regarding your use of the Services, account registration, and any other personal information provided by you, in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You further acknowledge and agree that any disputes related to the Privacy Policy, including any breaches in security or privacy, will be subject to the limitations on liability and dispute resolution provisions contained in this Agreement.
INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
You acknowledge that all materials on the Services, including the Services’ design, graphics, text, sounds, pictures, software, and other files, and the selection and arrangement thereof (collectively “Materials”), are the property of the Company or its licensors and are subject to and protected by Canadian and international copyright and other intellectual property laws and rights. You will not obtain any ownership interest in the Materials or the Services through this Agreement or otherwise. All rights to Materials not expressly granted in this Agreement are reserved to their respective owners. Except as expressly authorized by this Agreement or on the Services, you may not use, copy, reproduce, distribute, republish, download, perform, display, post, transmit, exploit, create derivative works of, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, decode, or otherwise attempt to access the source code of any of the Materials in any form or by any means, without the prior written authorization of the Company. The Company authorizes you to use the Materials only for personal, non-commercial use, provided that you keep intact all copyright and other proprietary notices contained in the original Materials. The trademarks, service marks, trade names, trade dress, and logos contained or described on the Services are the sole property of the Company and/or its licensors and may not be copied, imitated, or otherwise used, in whole or in part, without the prior written authorization of the Company and/or its licensors.
USER CONTENT
Where applicable through the Services (e.g., on a message board, through refer-a-friend/share win features, via chat functionality, via email or other correspondence to us, by creating a “nickname” or username, etc.), you may be able to post your own content or information (“User Content”). You understand that all User Content, whether you have publicly posted on a forum, posted as part of your public profile, or transmitted to us, is your sole responsibility. If you have any User Content that you would like to keep confidential and/or do not want others to use (including but not limited to photos, personal information, name, home address, telephone number, etc.), do not post it or submit it for posting to public-facing portions of the Services. Under no circumstances will the Company be liable in any way for any User Content, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any User Content or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any User Content posted, emailed, or otherwise transmitted via the Services.
By posting any User Content through the Services, you hereby grant the Company a royalty-free, fully paid-up, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, and fully sublicensable right and license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, combine with other works, create derivative works from, distribute, perform, edit, and display such User Content (in whole or in part) worldwide and/or to incorporate it in other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed. You specifically waive any “moral rights” in and to the User Content. You represent and warrant that you own the User Content posted by you on or through the Services or otherwise have the right to grant the license set forth herein, and the posting of your User Content on or through the Services does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights, or any other rights of any person. You agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and any other monies owing to any person by reason of any User Content you posted to or through the Services.
You acknowledge and agree that the Company may preserve User Content and may also disclose User Content if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with legal processes; enforce this Agreement; respond to claims that any User Content violates the rights of third parties; or protect the rights, property, or personal safety of the Company, its users, or the public.
You additionally authorize us to promote the activities you engaged in through the Services through various marketing activities, including without limitation: (a) news articles posted online and visible to other users of the Services; (b) leaderboards published on the Services; (c) email or text communications to other users of the Services; (d) press releases; and (e) other advertising across all media.
At all times, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that your identity (other than your account username) is kept confidential in such activities unless we otherwise receive your permission.
CODE OF CONDUCT
You agree that you will not use the Services to: (a) upload, post, email, text, or otherwise transmit any User Content that is unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, pornographic, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, or racially or ethnically objectionable; (b) harm minors in any way; (c) impersonate any person or entity, including, but not limited to, a representative of the Company, or falsely state or otherwise misrepresent your affiliation with a person or entity; (d) forge headers or otherwise manipulate identifiers to disguise the origin of any User Content transmitted through the Services; (e) upload, post, email, text, or otherwise transmit any User Content that you do not have a right to transmit under any law or under contractual or fiduciary relationships (such as inside information, proprietary and confidential information learned or disclosed as part of employment relationships or under nondisclosure agreements); (f) upload, post, email, text, or otherwise transmit any User Content that infringes any patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or other proprietary rights of any party; (g) upload, post, email, text, or otherwise transmit any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, “junk mail,” “spam,” “chain letters,” “pyramid schemes,” or any other form of solicitation; (h) upload, post, email, text, or otherwise transmit any material that contains software viruses or any other computer code, files, or programs designed to interrupt, emulate, destroy, or limit the functionality of any computer software or hardware or telecommunications equipment; (i) disrupt the normal flow of dialogue, cause a screen to “scroll” faster than other users of the Services are able to type, or otherwise act in a manner that negatively affects other users’ ability to engage in real-time exchanges; (j) interfere with or disrupt the Services or servers or networks connected to the Services, or disobey any requirements, procedures, policies, or regulations of networks connected to the Services; (k) “stalk” or otherwise harass another user; (l) solicit, collect, or store personal information or data about other Service users, or disclose another user’s personal information or data to any third party;

The Company assumes no responsibility for monitoring the Services for inappropriate submissions or conduct but reserves the right to do so. If at any time the Company chooses, in its sole discretion, to monitor the Services, the Company nonetheless assumes no responsibility for the User Content, has no obligation to modify or remove any inappropriate User Content, and has no responsibility for the conduct of the users submitting any such User Content. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and its designees shall have the right to remove any User Content at any time, without notice and for any reason, including but not limited to, User Content that violates this Agreement or is otherwise objectionable, as determined in the Company’s sole discretion.
If you suspect any player is cheating, colluding, or engaging in any other fraudulent activity in playing Virtual Goods games through the Services, it should be reported to us immediately by email at helpdesk@bigwinnerpro.com, identifying the player or players’ usernames or aliases involved and including a brief description of their suspect activities.
PROMOTIONS
As a result of a Virtual Goods purchase, we may credit bonus awards (e.g., comps) to your Rewards account, redeemable in a Company brick-and-mortar casino property within 365 days of the date credited to your account. We will not credit such bonus awards as a consequence of your activity when playing Virtual Goods games through the Services or as a result of any outcomes associated with playing such games. All such bonus awards will automatically and permanently expire 30 days after the date you redeem them.
Any sweepstakes, contests, surveys, prize games, or similar promotions (each a “Promotion”) made available through the Services may be governed by specific rules that are separate from and in addition to this Agreement, and all such additional rules are hereby incorporated into this Agreement. Detailed rules for current Promotions, including current Daily Free Prize Games (as defined below), are available here. By participating in any Promotion, you will become subject to those rules in addition to this Agreement. The Company urges you to read the applicable rules, which may be linked from the particular Promotion, and to review our Privacy Policy, which, in addition to this Agreement, governs any information you submit in connection with such activities. To the extent that the rules of a Promotion conflict with this Agreement, the rules of the Promotion will prevail. You may not participate in any Promotion awarding a prize other than Virtual Goods if you or a member of your household, are or have ever been, an employee of Company. For the purposes of this clause, an “employee” includes third-party contractors of Company such as licensors, software suppliers, developers, or partners, and all people in any way affiliated with them. At any time and without notice, we reserve the right to terminate or change the terms of any Promotion, and we shall not incur any liability for such a change or termination.
Daily Free Prize Games: We will make daily free prize game Promotions (each a “Daily Free Prize Game”) available through the Services. While each Daily Free Prize Game will have its own set of detailed terms, the following terms apply to all Daily Free Prize Games. In order to participate in the Daily Free Prize Games, you must have an active Services account. Each calendar day from 8:00 p.m. EST through the following calendar day at 7:59 p.m. EST, we will provide you the opportunity through the Services to play one Daily Free Prize Game.
Every play of a Daily Free Prize Game will result in the award of at least one prize. Certain prizes may have limited availability, and we reserve the right to substitute any prize, at any time and for any reason, for a different prize of equal or greater value.
Possible prizes for Daily Free Prize Games include: (a) Virtual Goods (awarded immediately and credited to your Services account).

DISCLAIMER; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT:
YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICES AND THE MATERIALS CONTAINED HEREIN ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE COMPANY AND ITS OWNERS, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AND OTHER REPRESENTATIVES, AND THE COMPANY’S VENDORS AND BUSINESS PARTNERS (COLLECTIVELY, “THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATED PARTIES”) EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES (INCLUDING VIRTUAL GOODS), WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
THE COMPANY AND ITS AFFILIATED PARTIES SHALL NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY LIABILITY (I) AS A PUBLISHER OF INFORMATION; (II) AS A RESELLER OF ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES; (III) FOR ANY DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES; (IV) FOR ANY INCORRECT OR INACCURATE INFORMATION; (V) FOR ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR DISCLOSURE OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (VI) FOR STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICES; OR (VII) FOR ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SERVICES. THIS IS A COMPREHENSIVE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY THAT APPLIES TO ALL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, COST OF PROCURING SUBSTITUTE GOODS, SERVICES, OR INFORMATION, LITIGATION OR THE LIKE), WHETHER BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, BREACH OF WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF AN INDIVIDUAL ADVISES OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND YOU. THE PRODUCTS, THE INFORMATION, AND SERVICES OFFERED ON AND THROUGH THE SERVICES WOULD NOT BE PROVIDED WITHOUT SUCH LIMITATIONS. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SOLE AND ENTIRE MAXIMUM LIABILITY OF THE COMPANY AND AFFILIATED PARTIES FOR ANY REASON, AND YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY CAUSE OR CLAIM WHATSOEVER, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR ANY PRODUCT, INFORMATION, OR SERVICE PURCHASED BY YOU FROM THE COMPANY ON THE SERVICES. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID THE COMPANY ANY AMOUNTS FOR ANY PRODUCTS, INFORMATION, OR SERVICE PRIOR TO THE DATE ON WHICH YOU FIRST ASSERT ANY CLAIM, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY FOR ANY DISPUTE WITH THE COMPANY IS TO STOP USING THE SERVICES AND CANCEL YOUR ACCOUNT.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
APPLICABLE LAW; JURISDICTION; VENUE; DISPUTE RESOLUTION
This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario, as it is applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within the province, without regard to conflict of law principles. The “Disclaimer; Limitation of Liability” provisions of this Agreement are for the benefit of the Company and each of these entities shall have the right to assert and enforce these provisions directly against you on its own behalf.
ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER – IMPORTANT – PLEASE REVIEW AS THIS AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS
Arbitration Notice You and the Company agree that if there is any dispute or claim arising from or related to our Services, these Terms of Service, and/or the Privacy Policy, it will be resolved by confidential binding arbitration in Chicago, Illinois, rather than in court, after first giving Notice of the Dispute (“Notice”) to the other party and the opportunity to discuss resolution within thirty (30) days of such Notice. The Notice to the Company should be sent to helpdesk@bigwinnerpro.com. This Notice must include a description of the nature and basis of the claims the party is asserting, and the relief sought.
If you and the Company are unable to resolve the claims described in the Notice within thirty (30) days after the Notice is sent, you or the Company may initiate arbitration proceedings to be conducted by a single impartial arbitrator chosen from the American Arbitration Association (AAA)’s National Roster of Commercial Arbitrators by mutual agreement of the Parties (or by the AAA if the Parties cannot agree). There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) and must follow the provisions of these Terms & Conditions as a court would. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT.
The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration laws apply, and the AAA will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules.
The arbitration shall be held in the city of Chicago, Illinois, or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or we may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and us subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing if the circumstances warrant. Attendance at an in-person hearing may be made by telephone by you and us unless the arbitrator requires otherwise. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be confidential, final, and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Service to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any change to this Section (other than a change to any notice address or website link provided herein) in the future, that change shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a proceeding against us prior to the effective date of the change. Moreover, if we seek to terminate this Section, any such termination shall not be effective until thirty (30) days after the version of the Terms of Service containing this Section is posted to the website and shall not be effective as to any claim that was filed in a proceeding against us prior to the effective date of termination.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
CLAIMS AND DISPUTES MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR
To the extent permitted by law, and without limiting the effect of any disclaimer contained herein, any cause of action or claim you may have with respect to your use of the Services, including, without limitation, any website or mobile application or other Services-related product, services, or other content must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises. This Section applies to you and your heirs, successors, and assigns.
MISCELLANEOUS
If any provision of this Agreement is deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions shall not be affected. When used in this Agreement, the term “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”
This Agreement, including the Privacy Policy and other Promotion rules incorporated herein, constitutes the entire and only Agreement between the Company and each user of the Services with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, and supersedes any and all prior or contemporaneous Agreements, representations, warranties, and understandings, written or oral, with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement.
The failure of the Company to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such term or limit the Company’s right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement.
If any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then the unlawful, void, and/or unenforceable provision(s) shall be deemed severable from the other provisions contained herein and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any of the remaining provisions.
