7. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND DAMAGES; LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.

Although the Operator seeks to maintain safe, secure, accurate, and well-functioning Services, we cannot guarantee the continuous operation of or access to our Services, and there may at times be inadvertent technical or factual errors or inaccuracies. The Operators make no representation that the materials contained in the Services are appropriate or authorized for use in all countries, states, provinces, counties, or any other jurisdictions. If you choose to access the Services, you do so on your own initiative and risk and are responsible for compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. ON BEHALF OF THE OPERATORS, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE OPERATORS MAKE NO WARRANTIES OTHER THAN THOSE MADE EXPRESSLY IN THESE TERMS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, THE OPERATORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE OPERATORS DO NOT WARRANT OR REPRESENT THAT THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THE SERVICES IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, CORRECTLY SEQUENCED, RELIABLE, OR TIMELY, OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR FREE OF ERRORS AND/OR VIRUSES. YOU SPECIFICALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE OPERATORS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR THE DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES OR THIRD PARTIES AND THAT THE RISK OF INJURY FROM THE FOREGOING RESTS ENTIRELY WITH YOU. YOU USE THE SERVICES AT YOUR SOLE RISK.

8. INDEMNIFICATION.

You hereby agree that you will be personally responsible for your use of the Services and you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold the Operators and each of their respective members, operators, directors, officers, employees, shareholders, agents, affiliates, and representatives harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and court costs) arising out of or relating to: (i) your use of the Services; (ii) any of your Submissions; (iii) any violation of these Terms or the Privacy Policy; (iv) your violation of any applicable local, state, national, or international law, or of any third party’s rights; and (v) any disputes or issues between you and any third party. StreamLayer reserves the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and in such case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claim.

9. CHOICE OF LAW.

These Terms shall be construed and controlled by the laws of the State of Illinois, United States of America, without regard to conflict of law principles. Subject to Section 10, which provides that disputes are to be resolved through binding arbitration or small claims court, to the extent that any lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted hereunder, you and StreamLayer agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within the County of Cook, State of Illinois, for the purpose of litigating all such disputes, and you hereby consent to the jurisdiction of such court solely for such purposes and you further waive any argument that any such court does not have jurisdiction over such dispute or that venue in any such court is not appropriate or convenient. The Operators will be entitled to recover their court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred in successfully proving any breach of any term of these Terms.

10. ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH STREAMLAYER AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF.

A. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and StreamLayer in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, you and StreamLayer agree to resolve any and all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to the Terms, the breach thereof, or any use of the Services (“Claims”), except for claims filed in a small claims court that proceed on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis, through binding arbitration instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. This arbitration undertaking is made pursuant to and in connection with a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act at 9 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq.

B. The arbitrator shall have authority to award the same damages and relief that a judge in a court of law would have, provided that the arbitrator shall not have authority to award punitive damages unless authorized to do so by statute. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. The arbitrator shall follow the applicable law. You acknowledge and agree that the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that individual party’s Claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other Users.

C. YOU AND STREAMLAYER AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.

D. This Section shall apply, without limitation, to all Claims that arose or were asserted before the Effective Date of these Terms and shall survive termination of your relationship with StreamLayer. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you permanently and irrevocably waive the right to bring any Claim in any forum unless you provide StreamLayer with written notice of the event or facts giving rise to the Claim within one (1) year of their occurrence.

11. TRANSACTIONS

If you wish to purchase any offers (each a “Transaction”) available through the Services, you may be asked to supply certain Transaction Information.

Verification of Transaction Information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any Transaction.

12. PROMOTIONS

13. LOYALTY PROGRAM

All Program benefits, amenities, offers, prizes and services are subject to availability and may be changed by StreamLayer at any time without notice. StreamLayer reserves the right to terminate the Program, in whole or in part, with six months’ advance notice to all members of the Program (“Members”) and with less than six months’ notice in any jurisdiction if required to do so by applicable law. At StreamLayer’s sole discretion, it may choose to make changes to the Program or substitute a similar loyalty program for the Program at any time immediately upon notice to active Members. If the Program is terminated, all unredeemed Program points (“Points”) will be forfeited without any obligation or liability, and no prizes earned by Members in connection with the Program (“Prizes”) will be honored after the conclusion of the notice period. It is your responsibility to check or review these Terms from time to time to keep informed of any changes. By joining the Program, you hereby agree to be bound by any such changed Terms.

14. CONTESTS AND SWEEPSTAKES

StreamLayer may, from time to time, offer in-app games and contests where users can earn points based on their behavior within the Sporta app. Examples include earning points for correctly answering trivia questions or other in-app activity. In each such case, the overall rules can be found at LINK, and the specific rules for the contest will be available in the Sporta app, StreamLayer will be the sponsor of the contest, and Apple will not be involved in any way. To the extent that StreamLayer or a partner offers the opportunity to enter a sweepstakes from within the Sporta app, the terms and conditions of each such sweepstakes will be clearly marked and available within the app, and in no such case will Apple be involved in any capacity.

In the unlikely event of our bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, or assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the application of laws, or equitable principles affecting creditors’ rights generally, we may not be able to control how your personal information is treated, transferred, or used.

Our failure or delay to exercise, in any way, any right herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. Except as specified in these Terms, StreamLayer support staff or other StreamLayer employees do not have the authority to amend any of these Terms or to bind StreamLayer to any legal or other obligation not already set forth in these Terms.
