CONDUIT VIRTUAL, INC. TERMS OF SERVICE
Last updated September 8, 2023
Welcome to Conduit Virtual. Please read these Terms of Service carefully. These Terms of Service form a legally binding agreement between you and Conduit Virtual, Inc. (“Conduit,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) regarding your access to and use of Conduit’s platform and related services (collectively, the “Platform”). You are a game developer and/or publisher in the business of developing, marketing, and/or publishing, directly or indirectly, one or more video games or other interactive software products (each a “Game” and, collectively, “Games”) and want to receive assistance from us in connection with such development, marketing, and/or publishing. The Platform, among other things, allows you to access research about your Games and your competitors, preview marketing assets, and obtain a social media plan. Services related to the Platform may include additional market research, creation of brand marketing and community assets, setting up and managing marketing channel campaigns, providing campaign reporting and analysis, and other business advice and insights, in each case, as mutually agreed upon between you and us from time to time.

THE PLATFORM
We host, operate, and maintain the Platform, including performance of any related services mutually agreed upon by you and us and offered to you in connection with your authorized access to and use of the Platform (the “Services”). The Platform may comprise, among other things, the Services; one or more web sites, web pages, or web portals (collectively, the “Site”); one or more elements of software that enables you to access and use certain features and functions of the Platform (collectively, the “Software”); and related information, reports, plans, documentation, and other materials that we provide or otherwise make available to you from time to time as part of the Platform (collectively, the “Documentation”). Unless the context indicates otherwise, the term “Platform,” as used in these Terms of Service, comprises the Services, Site, Software, Documentation, and any of our related products, services, systems, technology, features, or functions (including any enhanced features or functions or premium products or services) that we offer to you from time to time as part of the Platform or in connection with your authorized access to and use of the Platform. Users of the Platform are referred to in these Terms of Service as “Users.”

AGREEMENT TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE
Agreement to be Bound: By registering for, connecting with, subscribing to, purchasing, enrolling with, or otherwise accessing or using the Platform, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (this “Agreement”), including the provisions below that (a) allow us, in certain circumstances, to cancel, suspend, or otherwise place limits on your access to and use of the Platform and (b) require you to resolve disputes with us by mandatory binding arbitration involving a class action waiver.

Legally Binding on You and Any Entity You Represent: This Agreement constitutes a legally binding agreement made between Conduit and any Users, whether an individual or an entity (“Developer,” “you,” “yourself,” and “your”) that registers for, connects with, subscribes to, purchases, enrolls with, or otherwise accesses or uses the Platform. In the event that you purport to be an agent or other representative of an entity (e.g., an officer or employee) or in the event that you otherwise, in fact, act on behalf of such an entity, you hereby acknowledge and agree that references in this Agreement to “Developer,” “User,” “you,” “yourself,” and “your” include such entity. Each of you and us are a “Party,” and may be referred to, collectively, as the “Parties.”

Your Affiliates: If you are an entity, you may have one or more affiliates, such as a parent or subsidiary (each, a “User Affiliate”). A User Affiliate that wishes to access and use the features and functions of the Platform must enter into this Agreement separately with Conduit by separately acquiring access to and use of the Platform. This creates a separate agreement between the User Affiliate and Conduit. Neither you nor any User Affiliate has any rights under each other’s agreement with us, and breach or termination of any such agreement is not breach or termination of any other.

If You Do Not Agree to These Terms of Service: You agree that by registering for, connecting with, subscribing to, purchasing, enrolling with, or otherwise accessing or using the Platform, you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Agreement on behalf of yourself and any entity that you represent. If you do not agree to all of the terms of this Agreement, do not access or use the Platform. Except for certain kinds of disputes specifically described in Section 21 below, you agree that disputes arising under this Agreement will be resolved by mandatory, binding, individual arbitration, and by accepting this Agreement, you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in any class action or representative proceeding. You agree to give up your right to go to court to assert or defend your rights under this Agreement. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator and not a judge or jury. Please see Section 21 for more information.

ELIGIBILITY TO ACCESS AND USE THE PLATFORM
Age:
In order to access and use the Platform, now or in the future, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority where you live and/or access the Platform).

Use Outside the United States: You acknowledge and understand that the Platform is designed, developed, hosted, operated, supported, maintained, and otherwise offered by us in or from the United States and that the Site, Software, and Documentation are controlled and offered by us from our facilities in the United States. The Platform is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity outside the United States, and we make no representations that the Platform, including the Site, Software, and Documentation, are appropriate or available for use in other locations or jurisdictions. More specifically, the Platform is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or that would subject us to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction. Accordingly, those persons and entities that choose to access or use the Platform from locations outside the United States do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws.

Export Controls: You represent and warrant that you (and, if applicable, any entity that you represent) are not (1) located in a country that is subject to a US government embargo, or that has been designated by the US government as a “terrorist supporting” country; or (2) listed on any US government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You represent that you will comply with all US export control laws and the export control laws in your local jurisdiction.

If You Do Not Meet the Eligibility Requirements: By accessing or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you meet all eligibility requirements. If you do not meet any such requirement, you must not access or use the Platform. We reserve the right to cancel, suspend, or otherwise limit your access to and use of the Platform, if you fail to comply with any of these eligibility requirements.

MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT
We reserve the right to modify the terms, conditions, limitations, and restrictions set forth in this Agreement, or any policies or Supplemental Terms (as defined below) related to your access to and use of the Platform, at any time and in our sole discretion; provided, that, in the event that we make such modifications, including introducing any such policies or Supplemental Terms, we will endeavor to notify you the next time that you access the Platform and allow you to review and accept the modifications, policies, or Supplemental Terms, as the case may be, prior to continuing. The most current version of this Agreement will be posted at www.conduit.gg/terms, and we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this Agreement.

SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS
Agreement to Be Bound by Supplemental Terms: Supplemental Terms, if any, are hereby expressly incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. “Supplemental Terms” may include such things as terms of use that apply to your registration of, access to, or use of any User Account you create with us (see Section 6.2 below); end user license agreements that apply to your downloading or installing any elements of the Software; supplemental terms and conditions governing specific features or functions of the Platform; our supplemental policies, procedures, or guidelines governing access to and use the Platform or specific elements thereof; rate sheets or list prices showing fees charged to access or use all or some elements of the Platform, now or in the future; or other terms and conditions published by us that supplement those set forth in this Agreement. Your continued access to and use of the Platform following notice of Supplemental Terms, including any modifications thereto, will constitute your acceptance of them. If you do not agree to Supplemental Terms as they are introduced, including modifications thereto as they occur, you will immediately discontinue accessing or using the Platform, including any and all of the features and functions thereof.

Separate Agreements Between You and Us: Supplemental Terms also may include express terms and conditions agreed upon and set forth in a separate, written, and signed agreement between Conduit and you or an entity you represent. If there is a conflict between the terms, conditions, limitations, or restrictions set forth in a separate, written, and signed agreement between Conduit and you or an entity you represent, the terms, conditions, limitations, and restrictions set forth in that agreement will supersede the conflicting terms, conditions, limitations, or restrictions set forth in this Agreement, only to the extent of such conflict and only as long as that agreement is signed by an authorized signatory of Conduit.

ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE PLATFORM
Permission to Access and Use the Platform:
Subject to the terms, conditions, limitations, and restrictions set forth in this Agreement, we hereby grant to you, during the term of this Agreement, permission to access and use your User Account (as defined below) on any Internet-enabled device that you (or, if applicable, the entity that you represent) own or control solely for the purpose of accessing and using, on a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable basis, the features and functions of the Platform that we make available to you via your User Account in accordance with the Documentation, solely for your own business purposes, and not for the purpose of any external distribution or dissemination of the Platform, or any element thereof, whether for commercial or non-commercial purposes. The foregoing license includes permission to download or install any elements of the Software that we make available for you to download and install using your User Account, but you may use such elements of the Software, without modification or redistribution and only for the purposes set forth herein. You are not permitted to transfer or sublicense the foregoing license granted by us to you, including transferring access to or use of your User Account internally to other officers, employees, contractors, agents, or representatives of an entity that you represent, without our express, written consent. You are also not permitted to reproduce, modify, aggregate, republish, resell, sublicense, redistribute, re-disseminate, download, or install the Platform, including any element thereof, except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, without our express, written consent, which consent must take the form of a separate, written, and signed agreement executed by an authorized signatory of Conduit.

User Account: In order to access and use the Platform, you will need to create a user account (each, a “User Account”) with Conduit. In the event that you are an agent or other representative of an entity (e.g., an officer or employee), you and other agents and representatives of the entity each may be allowed to create User Accounts. In that event, references in this Agreement to “User Account” include all such associated User Accounts, collectively, unless otherwise expressly noted or the context clearly indicates otherwise. To create a User Account, you will be required to provide certain information and establish authentication credentials. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during creation of your User Account and to update such information to keep it accurate, current, and complete. As set forth in Section 8 below, we reserve the right to cancel, suspend, terminate, or otherwise place limits on your access to and use of User Account, at any time and for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. That includes circumstances in which information provided by you, at the time of your User Account creation or later, proves to be inaccurate, not current, or incomplete. User Accounts assigned by us may be assigned to individual persons. You acknowledge that, in the case of User Accounts assigned to individual persons, each User Account is only for use by the assigned individual and is not transferable to any other individual (e.g., other officers, employees, contractors, agents, or representatives of an entity you represent), and you agree that neither you nor any individual associated with you will create more than one User Account in order to access and use the Platform. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your User Account and authentication credentials and are responsible for the access to and use of your User Account and the Platform by anyone who obtained your authentication credentials through you. You may not share authentication credentials with anyone else or otherwise permit anyone other than yourself to access or use the Platform using your User Account or your authentication credentials. You will immediately notify us of any unauthorized use of your User Account or the Platform that comes to your attention.

Responsibility for Access to and Use of the Platform: You are solely responsible for the software, hardware, network connections, and other systems needed in order for you to access and use your User Account and the Platform. You accept any and all risk arising out of your use of the Platform, including, for the avoidance of doubt, your use of the Services, Site, Software, or Documentation.

PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES
Non-Exclusivity:
With respect to any Services we agree to perform for your benefit, we agree to perform such Services on a non-exclusive basis. Either Party is allowed to provide other services and/or work with any other third parties, as long as such efforts do not conflict or give rise to a breach of the terms set forth in this Agreement.

Materials; Access: You shall share with us all data, information, and other materials reasonably necessary in order for us to successfully perform Services for your benefit, as contemplated in this Agreement, including, access to certain platforms, networks, systems, online stores, and partners, as needed.

Credit: We will be credited in the Game, or Games, as the case may be, and in any materials where you receive a credit or similar acknowledgement (including, but not limited to, such Game’s, or Games’, splash page(s), end credits, public marketing and public relations materials, and in any physical products), unless agreed upon otherwise by the Parties in writing. The exact nature of the credit will be mutually agreed between the Parties in writing, acting in good faith. For the avoidance of doubt, we will not receive a credit or similar acknowledgement on a specific Game if we have not performed Services for your benefit related to that Game, unless otherwise agreed by you.

No Guarantee: Nothing in this Agreement and nothing in our statements to you shall be construed as a promise or guarantee of specific outcomes for you, your business, or any Game or Games. We make no such promises or guarantees. Our statements, including comments about the outcomes for you, your business, or any product or service, including the Game, or Games, as the case may be, merely reflect our opinion at the time such statements are made, based on the information made available to us at the time such statements are made.

DELIVERABLES; DELIVERY AND ACCEPTANCE
Delivery:
With respect to any Services we agree to perform for your benefit, we will deliver such Services in the manner agreed upon by the Parties and in accordance with any mutually agreed upon specifications. Target delivery dates, if any, must be mutually agreed upon by the Parties, and, if such dates are to be enforceable, they must be evidenced by a separate, written, and signed agreement executed by an authorized signatory of Conduit.

Acceptance: To the extent such Services involve the delivery of deliverables from us to you, you promptly will review such deliverables and notify us if such deliverables meet the mutually agreed-upon specifications or other mutually agreed-upon acceptance criteria within a commercially reasonable period after receipt thereof. We will take all steps reasonably necessary to correct any non-conforming deliverable within a commercially reasonable period after receipt of written notice from you stating that the deliverable is non-conforming accompanied by the written basis for your conclusion. If you do not notify us of the rejection of a deliverable within 30 calendar days after delivery thereof, the deliverable will be deemed accepted.

FREE ACCESS AND USE; FEES AND CHARGES
Free Access and Use:
Generally, registration to access and use the Platform is offered free of charge. However, from time to time, we may charge a fees, or fees, including, for example, a subscription fee, a retainer, a commission, revenue sharing, or other similar compensation, in consideration for your access to and use of certain features, functions, or elements of the Platform or in consideration for the performance of certain Services for your benefit. If you choose to access and/or use any such features, functions, or elements, or if you choose to have us perform any such Services, you will be billed, or, if applicable, your User Account will be charged, according to the choices you make. Following registration to access and use the Platform, you will be able to make reasonable use of those features, functions, and elements of the Platform that we offer free of charge, but we reserve the right to place certain limitations on free access to and use of the Platform, including, for example, imposing velocity limitations on your usage, if and to the extent that we deem such limitations reasonable or necessary. The Platform and any features, functions, or elements of the Platform that are provided by us to you for free are provided on an “as-is” and “as-available” basis without any warranties of any kind and on a royalty-free, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and non-exclusive basis for use solely for your own business purposes.

Fees: As discussed above, from time to time, you may be charged a fee, or fees, to access and use certain features, functions, or elements of the Platform. The amount of any such fees will be presented to you on a rate sheet or price list at the time that you initially place your order. You agree to provide us with current, complete, and accurate purchase, payment, billing, and account information. You further agree to promptly update any such information, including any information related to your authorized payment method, or methods, so that we can complete all payment and billing transactions promptly and contact you, as needed. All payments will be stated by us and paid by you in US Dollars. We may change our fees, rates, or prices at any time (it being understood that we will not apply such changes to you retroactively). You agree to pay all charges at the prices then in effect for your purchases, and you authorize us to charge your authorized payment method for any such amounts upon making purchases from us. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all fees paid by you to us pursuant to this Agreement are non-refundable. If one or more of your purchases are subject to recurring charges, then you consent to our billing you or otherwise charging your authorized payment method on a recurring basis without requiring your prior approval for each recurring charge, until you notify us of your cancellation of such recurring charges. To cancel any recurring charges, contact as at contact@conduit.gg We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes in charges, even if we have already requested or received payment. We also reserve the right to refuse any purchase made using your User Account.

Payment Terms: At the time that you place any order, we will notify you of the timing of your payment. At a minimum, you hereby agree to pay all fees owed within 14 calendar days after your receipt of an invoice from us, which include invoices that are issued to you via the Platform. In any event, unpaid fees are subject to a finance charge of 1.5% per month or the maximum permitted by law, whichever is lower, plus all expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

Taxes: Sales taxes; value added taxes; goods and services taxes; or similar government fees, taxes, and surcharges (collectively, “Taxes”) may apply. Taxes that we are required by applicable law to collect and remit will be added to the price of purchases, as deemed required by us. You, on the other hand, are solely responsible for identifying and paying all Taxes that are imposed on you upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under this Agreement (and any penalties, interest, or other additional charges arising from such Taxes). Upon request, you will provide such information to us as we reasonably require in order to determine whether we are obligated to collect Taxes from you. We will not collect any Taxes for which you furnish us a properly completed exemption certificate or a direct payment permit certificate.

Third-Party Payment Providers: Acceptance and payment of funds between you and us may be performed using one or more designated third-party payment processors, such as Stripe (each, an “Authorized Payment Processor”). Authorized Payment Processors and the methods of payment processing offered by such Authorized Payment Processors on the Platform (each, an “Authorized Payment Method”) will be determined by us in our sole discretion. The Authorized Payment Processor and Authorized Payment Method that Users use in connection with each transaction will be designated by the User at the time of completing the transaction or in connection with such User’s creation and maintenance of its User Account. We do not guarantee, at any given time, the availability of any Authorized Payment Method or the services of any Authorized Payment Processor, and we reserve the right to add, cancel, or otherwise change Authorized Payment Processors and Authorized Payment Methods at any time. Your use of an Authorized Payment Method is subject to any terms, conditions, limitations, or restrictions imposed by the Authorized Payment Processor that offers that Authorized Payment Method (each, a “Payment Agreement”) and may be modified by the Authorized Payment Processor from time to time. Your use of an Authorized Payment Method is conditioned upon your compliance with the applicable Payment Agreement, and if the applicable Payment Agreement expires or is terminated, canceled, or suspended by the Payment Processor, you may not be able to use the Platform or you may have your User Account terminated or suspended.

Use of Stripe: As mentioned above, payment processing services for Users of the Platform may be provided by Stripe. If payment processing services are provided by Stripe, the payment processing services provided by Stripe expressly are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). By agreeing to this Agreement, continuing to access and use the Platform, and using any of the payment processing services offered by Stripe, you hereby agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of us enabling payment processing services on the Platform through Stripe, you agree to provide us with current, accurate, and complete information about you and your business and authorize us to share with Stripe the information about you and your business that you provide, any applicable Payment Information, and any applicable transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

Expenses: Unless otherwise agreed in writing, all fees are fully inclusive of all expenses incurred by us or any of the assigned personnel in the performance of any Services we perform for your benefit. If there are any expenses incurred by us in connection with performance of such Services for which we wish to be reimbursed, we will first ask you for permission to incur such expenses. If permission is given, any expenses incurred by us in connection with such Services will be reimbursed by you. We will include any such expenses on the next invoice issued to you accompanied by receipts evidencing such expenses or other appropriate evidence of payment.

If you use your User Account or otherwise access and use the Platform from the European Union, Asia, or any other region of the world with laws or other requirements governing the collection, use, storage, processing, or disclosure of Personal Data that differ from applicable laws in the United States, then through your continued access to and use of the Platform, you are transferring any applicable Personal Data to the United States, and you expressly consent to have your Personal Data transferred to and stored and/or processed in the United States.

FORCE MAJEURE
A Party will not be liable to the other Party due to the failure to fulfill its obligations in a timely manner if such failure is the result, wholly or partially, of events outside the reasonable control of such Party and that such Party could not avoid with the exercise of reasonable care, such as: (1) breakdowns of the internet, telephone, or electricity network; (2) calamities and environmental disasters; (3) virus outbreaks and pandemics; (4) strikes and work stoppages; and (5) acts of war and terrorism.

TERM AND TERMINATION
Term: The term of this Agreement commences upon your acceptance of this Agreement, as evidenced by your registering a User Account or otherwise purchasing, accessing, or using the Platform.

Termination by You: You may terminate this Agreement at any time by logging into the User Account you created with us (and, if applicable, into each associated User Account) and electing to cancel your User Account or by sending an email to us at contact@conduit.gg. For the avoidance of doubt, canceling a User Account does not relieve you of the obligation to pay any remaining payments owed in connection with that User Account or otherwise accrued prior to the effective date of such cancellation, and, except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, all fees paid by you to us pursuant to this Agreement are non-refundable.

Termination by Us: We may terminate this Agreement by canceling or suspending your User Account in the event that you breach any of the terms, conditions, limitations, restrictions, representations, or warranties set forth in this Agreement or in the event that you no longer meet the eligibility requirements set forth in Section 3 above. We may also terminate this Agreement for convenience at any time for any reason or no reason, with 14 calendar days’ prior notice to you and by refunding any pre-paid fees paid by you for access to and use of the Platform that are not attributable to the products and services that we provided to you prior to the effective date of such cancellation.

Effect of Termination: Following termination of this Agreement for any reason, within 30 days thereafter, we may delete any User Account that you created with us and any Data or other information associated with that User Account, with or without advance notice. If we cancel or suspend your User Account for any reason, you are prohibited from registering and creating a new User 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 an entity. In addition to canceling or suspending your User Account and/or terminating this Agreement, we reserve the right to take appropriate legal action, including, without limitation, pursuing civil and criminal remedies and seeking injunctive relief.

A copy of your Notification will be sent to the person who posted or stored the material addressed in the Notification.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION; MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION
Please read this Section 21 carefully, because it requires you to waive the right to a jury trial; requires you to arbitrate certain disputes, controversies, and claims with Conduit; and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from Conduit. As set forth in this Section 21, no class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed.

Informal Negotiation: To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to this Agreement, including any Supplemental Terms (each a “Dispute” and collectively, the “Disputes”), brought by either of the Parties, the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) informally for at least 30 days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one Party to the other Party.

Mandatory Binding Arbitration: 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 before a single arbitrator. You understand that without this provision, you would have the right to sue in court and, in certain cases, have a jury trial. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (collectively, the “Rules”) and in accordance with the Expedited Arbitration Procedures in the Rules, both of which are available on the JAMS web site at www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/ (or a successor site). Your arbitration fees shall be governed by the Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the Rules. If such fees expressly are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, we will pay all arbitration fees. 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 Rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in the County of Los Angeles, California, USA. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This Section 21 shall not preclude the Parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction. 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.

Court Jurisdiction and Venue: If for any reason, all or any portion of a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the state or federal courts of the State of California and the United States of America sitting in or having jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California, USA, and the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts.

No Class Actions or Representative Proceedings: The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

Exceptions: The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) Disputes specifically seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) Disputes specifically related to, or arising from, allegations of fraud, theft, or piracy; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. 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 and listed in Section 22 below, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Federal Arbitration Act: The Parties hereby agree that this Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 21 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, this Agreement, and the Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action or proceeding, which is prohibited by this Agreement. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s or entity’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative action or proceeding, or preside over any action or proceeding involving more than one individual or entity

Confidentiality of Proceedings: The arbitrator and the Parties will maintain the confidentiality of any proceedings, including, but not limited to, any and all information gathered, prepared, and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the Dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard that confidentiality unless the law provides to the contrary.

No Delays: In no event shall any Dispute be commenced more than one 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 and listed in Section 22 below, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

Right to Opt Out: You may opt-out of the waiver of the right to have certain Disputes resolved in a class action and the waiver of the right to a jury trial described in this Section 21 by emailing us at contact@conduit.gg within 30 days after entering into this Agreement in the manner described herein. You must include your name, phone number, physical address, and email address in your opt-out notice. This is your only mechanism for opting out of the terms, conditions, limitations, restrictions, and waivers set forth in this Section 21, and failure to do so as described herein constitutes your consent hereto, including such waivers. If you choose to opt out, please note that all other provisions in this Agreement will remain intact and in full force and effect.

GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION AND VENUE
This Agreement, and your access to and use of the Platform and any User Account you create with us, will be governed by and interpreted, construed, and enforced in all respects in accordance with the local laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without reference to its choice of law rules. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act are excluded from this Agreement. As set forth in Section 21 above, any dispute between you and us that is not subject to arbitration will be resolved in the state or federal courts of the State of California and the United States of America sitting in or having jurisdiction in Los Angeles County, California, USA.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Supplemental Terms defined in Section 5 above are not Additional Terms, as that term is used in this Agreement. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. This Agreement operates to the fullest extent permissible by law. If any provision of this Agreement is adjudged to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, you and we hereby agree that the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, that the provision in question may be replaced by the lawful provision that most nearly embodies the original intention of you and us, and that this Agreement shall in any event otherwise remain valid and enforceable. This Agreement is for the benefit of, and shall be binding upon us and you. No third party shall be considered a third-party beneficiary hereunder.
