DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT (DMCA) NOTICE AND POLICY
Notifications
We respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that any material

control, please immediately notify our Designated Copyright Agent using the
contact information provided below (a “Notification”). A copy of your Notification
will be sent to the person who posted or stored the material addressed in the
Notification. Please be advised that pursuant to federal law you may be held liable
for damages if you make material misrepresentations in a Notification. Thus, if you
are not sure that material located on or linked to by the Application infringes your
copyright, you should consider first contacting an attorney.
All Notifications should meet the requirements of DMCA 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) and
include the following information: (1) A physical or electronic signature of a person
authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed; (2) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed,
or, if multiple copyrighted works on the Application are covered by the Notification,

material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and
that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information
reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (4) information reasonably
sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address,
telephone number, and, if available, an email address at which the complaining
party may be contacted; (5) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith
belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the
copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (6) a statement that the information in the
notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is
authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed upon.
Counter Notification
If you believe your own copyrighted material has been removed from the
Application as a result of a mistake or misidentification, you may submit a written
counter notification to [us/our Designated Copyright Agent] using the contact
information provided below (a “Counter Notification”). To be an effective Counter
Notification under the DMCA, your Counter Notification must include substantially
the following: (1) identification of the material that has been removed or disabled

(2) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court in
which your address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, for any

name, address, and telephone number; (5) a statement under penalty of perjury that
you have a good faith belief that the material in question was removed or disabled
as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or

If you send us a valid, written Counter Notification meeting the requirements
described above, we will restore your removed or disabled material, unless we first
receive notice from the party filing the Notification informing us that such party has
filed a court action to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity related to the
material in question. Please note that if you materially misrepresent that the disabled
or removed content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may be liable
for damages, including costs and attorney’s fees. Filing a false Counter Notification
constitutes perjury.

TERM AND TERMINATION
These Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect while you use the
Application. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY OTHER PROVISION OF THESE TERMS
OF USE, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO, IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION AND
WITHOUT NOTICE OR LIABILITY, DENY ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE
APPLICATION (INCLUDING BLOCKING CERTAIN IP ADDRESSES), TO ANY
PERSON FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, INCLUDING WITHOUT
LIMITATION FOR BREACH OF ANY REPRESENTATION, WARRANTY, OR
COVENANT CONTAINED IN THESE TERMS OF USE OR OF ANY APPLICABLE
LAW OR REGULATION. WE MAY TERMINATE YOUR USE OR PARTICIPATION
IN THE APPLICATION OR DELETE YOUR ACCOUNT AND ANY CONTENT OR
INFORMATION THAT YOU POSTED AT ANY TIME, WITHOUT WARNING, IN
OUR SOLE DISCRETION.
If we terminate or suspend your account for any reason, you are prohibited from
registering and creating a new account under your name, a fake or borrowed name,
or the name of any third party, even if you may be acting on behalf of the third
party. In addition to terminating or suspending your account, we reserve the right to
take appropriate legal action, including without limitation pursuing civil, criminal,
and injunctive redress.
TERM AND TERMINATION
We reserve the right to change, modify, or remove the contents of the Application at
any time or for any reason at our sole discretion without notice. However, we have
no obligation to update any information on our Application. We also reserve the
right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Application without notice at any
time. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification,
suspension, or discontinuance of the Application.
We cannot guarantee the Application will be available at all times. We may
experience hardware, software, or other problems or need to perform maintenance
related to the Application, resulting in interruptions, delays, or errors. We reserve
the right to change, revise, update, suspend, discontinue, or otherwise modify the

GOVERNING LAW
These Terms of Use and your use of the Application are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States applicable to agreements.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Use (each a “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least 180 days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Informal Negotiations
If the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the
Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and
exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT
THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND
HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under
the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and,
where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer
Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Rules”), both of which are available at the AAA
website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator
compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where
appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be
conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The
arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of
reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law,
and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where
otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration
will take place in the United States. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties
may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or
to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute
shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state and federal courts located in the
United States and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defences of lack of
personal jurisdiction, and forum non convenient with respect to venue and
jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations
Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform
Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of
Use.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way to the
Application be commenced more than 1 year after the cause of action arose. If this
provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to
arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal
or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent
jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to
submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
