2.1. Eligibility. To access or use the Services, you must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) and have the requisite power and authority to enter into these Terms, or you must be between the ages of 13 and 17 and obtain the consent of your parent or legal guardian to use the Services.

The Company recommends that parents and legal guardians familiarize themselves with parental controls on devices they provide their children. The Services are not offered to users under the age of 13. You may not access or use the Services if we have previously banned you from the Services.

2.2. Permission to Use the Services. The Services are provided for your enjoyment, and unless otherwise specified on or in the Services, are solely for your personal use. We hereby grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, terminable license to view and use the Services only for your personal use, subject to your compliance with these Terms. Except as expressly provided herein, we do not grant you any other express or implied rights or license in or to the Services, and all rights, title and interest that we have in the Services’ and rights not explicitly granted to you by the Company or the Company’s licensors are retained by the Company or the Company’s licensors, respectively. Your use of the Services is at your own risk, including the risk that you might be exposed to Content (as defined below) that is offensive, indecent, inaccurate, objectionable, or otherwise inappropriate.

Except as expressly set forth in the Terms, you may not modify (including without limitation making derivative works), copy, adapt, reverse engineer, de-compile or otherwise reduce to human perceivable format, distribute, frame, reproduce, republish, download, scrape, display, post, transmit, transfer, license or sublicense, publicly display or sell in any form or by any means, in whole or in part, the Content of the Services without the Company’s or our licensors’ express prior written permission. This includes, but is not limited to scraping user locations or utilizing any non-public information about our Services or other users and migrating that data anywhere.

The licenses granted to you are conditioned upon your proper conduct and compliance with these Terms at all times, as judged by the Company in the Company’s sole discretion. We reserve the right to suspend or deny, in our sole discretion, your access to all or any portion of the Services.

The Terms, and any rights or obligations hereunder, are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with our prior written consent, but may be assigned or transferred by the Company without restriction. Any attempted assignment by you without our consent is a violation of these Terms and be void.

2.3. Service Availability. The Services may be modified, updated, interrupted, suspended or discontinued by the Company at any time without notice or liability.

2.4. User Accounts. You must create a user account (“Account”) and provide certain personal information in order to use some of the features that are offered through the Services. Providing the Company with your personal information is your choice. You acknowledge and agree that you have no ownership or other proprietary interest in such Account.

Your Account is for personal, non-commercial use only. To create an Account, you must be eligible to use the Service for which you are registering, be a resident of a country where use of the Services is permitted, have a valid email address and provide truthful and accurate information. You may not impersonate someone else, create or use an Account for anyone other than yourself, provide an email address other than your own. If you use a pseudonym, take care to note that others may still be able to identify you if, for example, you include identifying information during your use of the Services, use the same Account information on other sites or allow other sites to share information about you with us. Please read our Privacy Policy for more information.

In addition, to create an Account, the Company may require you to select a username and password. You acknowledge that you shall be responsible for ensuring that any username you select does not infringe any third party rights and is not otherwise unlawful. The Company may refuse to grant you a username in the Company’s sole discretion for any reason including if the proposed username impersonates or misleadingly implies an association with the persona of another person or entity, is or may be illegal, is or may be protected by trademark or other proprietary rights, is vulgar or otherwise offensive, or may cause confusion, or for any other reason as determined by the Company in the Company’s sole discretion. Your selection and use of a specific username does not convey any ownership or rights in that username and the Company reserves the right to revoke and/or reassign that username in the Company’s sole discretion. You understand and agree that the Company reserves the right to change, remove, alter or delete any username, with or without prior notice to you, at any time and for any reason in the Company’s sole discretion. YOU ARE ENTIRELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THE CONFIDENTIALITY OF YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD AND ALL ACCESS TO AND USE OF YOUR ACCOUNT, INCLUDING ANY AND ALL ACTIVITIES (INCLUDING USE OF SERVICES, AS APPLICABLE) THAT ARE CONDUCTED THROUGH THE USE OF YOUR USERNAME AND PASSWORD WHETHER OR NOT AUTHORIZED BY YOU. YOUR ACCOUNT MAY BE SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED IF SOMEONE ELSE USES YOUR ACCOUNT TO ENGAGE IN ACTIVITY THAT VIOLATES THESE TERMS.

You agree to notify the Company immediately of any unauthorized use of your Account. We reserve the right to close your Account at any time if you violate these Terms or if we otherwise have a legitimate interest to do so, such as complying with a legal or regulatory obligation.

2.5. Communication from the Company and Other Users. By creating an Account, you agree to receive certain communications in connection with the Services. For example, you might receive mentions in comments, notifications that new members have joined an organization, that a subscribed publication list was updated, or regarding website analytics. You will also receive our monthly email newsletter and promotion documents about our Services. You can opt-out of non-essential communications by clicking the “unsubscribe” button in the email or in-site mails sent by us.

The Services include Content. “Content” consists of the software, code, technology, text, forum posts, chat posts, profiles, widgets, messages, links, emails, music, sound, graphics, pictures, video and all other audio visual or other material appearing on or emanating to or from the Services. Content also includes user-generated Content (“UGC”), which consists of Account personas, forum posts, profile content and other Content posted to or otherwise made available on the Services by users.

3.1. Responsibility for Your Content. You alone are responsible for UGC that you submit or transmit to, through or in connection with the Services (“Your Content”), and once published, Your Content cannot always be withdrawn. You assume all risks associated with Your Content, including anyone’s reliance on the quality, accuracy, or reliability of Your Content, or any disclosure by you of information in Your Content that makes you personally identifiable. You represent that you own, or have the necessary permissions to use and authorize the use of Your Content as described in Section 3.2 (Our Right to Use Your Content). You may not imply that Your Content is in any way sponsored or endorsed by the Company.

You may expose yourself to liability if, for example, Your Content contains material that is false, intentionally misleading or defamatory; violates any third party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity or any other intellectual property or proprietary right; contains material that is unlawful, including illegal hate speech or pornography; exploits or otherwise harms minors; or violates or advocates the violation of any law or regulation.

3.2. Our Right to Use Your Content. You acknowledge and agree that by submitting or transmitting UGC to, through or in connection with the Services, you grant to the Company (and our subsidiaries, affiliates, licensees and each of their successors and assigns, and those acting with our authority) an unrestricted, absolute, royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable right and license to sublicense, reproduce, copy, modify, publish, edit, translate, create derivatives from in whole or in part, publicly display, publicly perform or otherwise use Your Content, or any part thereof, in combination with or as a composite of other materials, including but not limited to, text, data, images, photographs, illustrations, animation and graphics, video or audio segments of any nature in any of the Services or advertising and promotional materials. Please note that, to the extent any of Your Content is accessible, visible or usable by other users through the functionality of the Services, you also irrevocably grant all other users of the Services the royalty-free, perpetual, worldwide, irrevocable right and license to reproduce, copy, modify, publish, edit, translate, create derivatives from in whole or in part, publicly display, publicly perform or otherwise use Your Content, or any part thereof, in combination with or as a composite of other materials, in connection with their use of the Services. You also irrevocably waive, and cause to be waived against the Company and other users of the Services any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to Your Content. The licenses granted in this subsection shall survive the termination of these Terms.

3.3. Public Information. You acknowledge that your chats, postings and other communications with other users of the Services or with the Company are public and will be seen by others

3.4. Ownership. All Content is either owned by the Company or the Company’s licensors, or is licensed to the Company and the Company’s licensors pursuant to Section 3.2 (Our Right to Use UGC) above. As between you and the Company, you own Your Content. We own the Company Content, including but not limited to visual interfaces, interactive features, graphics, design, our compilation of UGC and other Services Content, computer code, products, software, aggregate user review ratings, and all other elements and components of the Services excluding Your Content, UGC and Third Party Content. We also own the copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade name, and other intellectual property rights throughout the world (“IP Rights”) associated with the Company Content and the Services, which are protected by copyright, trade dress, patent, trademark laws, and all other applicable intellectual and proprietary rights and laws. As such, you may not modify, reproduce, distribute, create derivative works or adaptations of public displays or in any way exploit any of the Company Content or the Services in whole or in part except as expressly authorized by the Company. Except as expressly and unambiguously provided herein, we do not grant you any express or implied rights, and all rights in and to the Services and the Company Content are retained by the Company. “Company Content” means Content that the Company creates and makes available in connection with the Services. “Services Content” means all of the Content that is made available in connection with the Services, including Your Content, other UGC, Third Party Content, and Company Content. “Third Party Content” means Content that originates from parties other than the Company or users of the Services, which is made available in connection with the Services

3.5. Right to Remove. UGC (including any that may have been created by users employed or contracted by the Company) does not necessarily reflect the opinion of the Company. We reserve the right to remove, screen, edit, or reinstate UGC, including Your Content, from time to time at our sole discretion for any reason or no reason, and without notice to you. We may remove UGC if we deem necessary, including but not limited to if such UGC is inappropriate, raises a conflict of interest, is promotional, irrelevant, violates other user’s privacy or has been stolen from another party. We have no obligation to retain or provide you with copies of Your Content, nor do we guarantee any confidentiality with respect to Your Content.

We are under no obligation to enforce the Terms on your behalf against another user. While we encourage you to let us know if you believe another user has violated the Terms, we reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action at our sole discretion.

The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any Dispute directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

14.2. Formal Dispute Resolution. If you are not a resident of the EEA, in the event that the parties do not agree upon a resolution in connection with a Dispute within a period of 30 calendar days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated pursuant to Section 15.1 (Initial Dispute Resolution), you and the Company expressly agree that the provisions in Section 15.2(a)(Agreement to Arbitrate), Section 15.2(b) (Location), Section 15.2(c) (Class Action Waiver), Section 15.2(d) (Exception – Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court) and Section 15.2(e) (30 Day Right to Opt Out) apply to you if (i) you are domiciled in and/or use the Services in the United States or (ii) you are domiciled in and/or use the Services from outside the United States, legal proceedings in connection with a Dispute are initiated within the United States and you are entitled to participate in such proceedings.

(a) Agreement to Arbitrate. If the parties do not agree upon a resolution in connection with a Dispute within a period of thirty (30 calendar days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated pursuant to Section 15.1 (Initial Dispute Resolution), then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to formally resolve claims (the “Agreement to Arbitrate”), subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all Disputes shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). The arbitration proceedings shall be governed by AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) and, where appropriate, AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Resolution of Consumer-Related Disputes (the “AAA Consumer Rules”). This arbitration provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act shall apply to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and formation of these Terms notwithstanding any other choice of law provision contained in these Terms. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including without limitation any claim that all or any party of these Terms are void or voidable, or whether a claim is subject to arbitration. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing, and shall provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so.

The AAA Rules and the AAA Consumer Rules are both available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the cost of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

(b) Location. If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration will take place at any reasonable location within the United States convenient for you. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in San Francisco, California, and you and the Company agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in San Francisco, California, in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

(c) Class Action Waiver. The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR THE COMPANY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLANITFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this subsection is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate Disputes

(d) Exception – Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all Disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an action in state or federal court that only asserts claims for patent infringement or invalidity, copyright infringement, moral rights violations, trademark infringement and/or trade secret misappropriation, but not, for clarity, claims related to the license granted to you for the Services under this Agreement. Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

(e) 30 Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in Subsection 15.2(a) (Agreement to Arbitrate), Subsection 15.2(b) (Location) and Subsection 15.2(c) (Class Action Waiver) above by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following address: 712 Bancroft Road #925, Walnut Creek, CA 94598, Attn: Legal. The notice must be sent within 30 days of your first access or use of the Services; otherwise you will be bound to arbitrate Disputes in accordance with the terms of those Subsections. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, the Company also will not be bound by such provisions.(f) Disputes Not Subject to Arbitration or Class Action Waiver. For Disputes not subject to the “Agreement to Arbitrate” set forth in Section 14.2(a) (Agreement to Arbitrate), or if any court or arbitrator determines that the “Class Action Waiver” set forth in Section 14.2(c) (Class Action Waiver) is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, exclusive jurisdiction for any claim or action arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms shall be the federal or state courts in San Francisco, California, and you expressly consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of such courts.
