Intellectual Property

The Service is the property of Licensor and is protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret and other intellectual property law. Licensor grants you a fully paid up, royalty free, nonexclusive, worldwide license to use the Service in accordance with the Master Service Agreement (below). All accompanying documentation made available related to the Service is the copyrighted work of the Licensor. The license granted herein does not permit you to, and you agree not to: (i) modify, translate, reverse engineer, download, reproduce, record, copy, re-record, disassemble, decompile or create derivative works from the Service or allow a third party, whether directly or indirectly (including, but not limited to the direct or indirect use of wizards, agents, bots, or other utilities), to reproduce, re-record, download, modify, translate, reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or create derivative works of the Service; or (ii) transfer, distribute, sell, lease, rent, disclose or provide access to the Service to any third party.

Disclaimers

ACCESS TO THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, LICENSOR DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, LICENSOR DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ACCESS TO THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DEFECTS, IF ANY, WILL BE CORRECTED. YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE AND YOUR RELIANCE UPON IT IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. Limitations of Liability IN THE EVENT OF ANY PROBLEM WITH THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE THAT YOUR SOLE REMEDY IS TO CEASE USING THE SERVICE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL LICENSOR OR ANY THIRD PARTY WHO PROMOTES THE SERVICE OR PROVIDES YOU WITH THE SERVICE BE LIABLE IN ANY WAY FOR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE SERVICE, ANY INFRINGEMENT BY ANY CONTENT OF THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OR OTHER RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF THE SERVICE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL LICENSOR OR ANY THIRD PARTY WHO PROMOTES THE SERVICE OR PROVIDES YOU WITH THE SERVICE, BE LIABLE FOR ANY PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT OR SPECIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, WHETHER UNDER A THEORY OF BREACH OF CONTRACT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, MALPRACTICE OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF LICENSOR OR THEY HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Termination

Licensor may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time if you fail to comply with these Terms. Licensor reserves the right to change, suspend, or discontinue providing all or part of the Service, temporarily or permanently, without prior notice. Disputes Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of the Content will be resolved by binding confidential arbitration, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to these Terms. 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 interpret these Terms as a court would. It is agreed that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, Licensor and you each waive any right to a jury trial. It is further agreed that you may not bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. The place of arbitration shall be Marin County, California.

General

These Terms are governed by applicable federal law of the United States of America and the laws of the State of California, without regard to any conflict of laws rules or principles. You agree to submit to the venue and jurisdiction of the courts in Marin County, California in the cases that arbitration is not successful or is assigned or appealed to a civil court. Licensor’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect. Notices required to be given to you by Licensor may be delivered by electronic mail to the email address provided during the purchase of the Service. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between Licensor and yourself regarding the Service, and supersede and replace any prior agreements you and Licensor might have regarding the Service. Licensor may revise these Terms from time to time without notice to you. By continuing to access or use Service after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. We encourage you to read the terms periodically.
