In accordance with DMCA and other applicable law, we have adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, account holders who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also at our discretion limit access to the Service and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

You waive all rights under section 1542 and any other federal or state statutes or laws of similar effect.
​
Scope of Disclaimers, Exclusions, and Limitations.
The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations stated in this agreement apply to the greatest extent allowed by law, but no more. We do not intend to deprive you of any mandatory protections provided to you by law. Because some jurisdictions may prohibit the disclaimer of some warranties, the exclusion of some damages, or other matters, one or more of the disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations will not apply to you.
​
Indemnification
In General. You will pay Clowder and the Company, and their respective members, managers, officers, employees, agents, contractors, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, content providers, and service providers (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) for any loss of an Indemnified Party that is caused by any of the following: (a) your access of, or conduct on, the Service, including your User Contributions; (b) your conduct offline; (c) your breach of this agreement; (d) your dispute with any other user; (e) your violation of rights of any person, including intellectual property, publicity, and privacy rights; (f) your violation of any applicable law; (g) your tortious acts or omissions; or (h) your criminal acts or omissions. But you are not required to pay if the loss was caused by the Indemnified Party’s intentional misconduct.
​
Definitions. “Loss” means an amount that the Indemnified Party is legally responsible for or pays in any form. Amounts include, for example, a judgment, a settlement, a fine, damages, injunctive relief, staff compensation, a decrease in property value, and expenses for defending against a claim for a loss (including fees for legal counsel, expert witnesses, and other advisers). A loss can be tangible or intangible; can arise from bodily injury, property damage, or other causes; can be based on tort, breach of contract, or any other theory of recovery; and includes incidental, direct, and consequential damages. A loss is “caused by” an event if the loss would not have happened without the event, even if the event is not a proximate cause of the loss.
​
Indemnified Party’s Duty to Notify You. If the Indemnified Party has your contact information, the Indemnified Party will notify you before the 30th day after the Indemnified Party knows or should reasonably have known of a claim for a loss that you might be compelled to pay. But the Indemnified Party’s failure to give you timely notice does not end your obligation, except if that failure prejudices your ability to defend or mitigate losses.
Legal Defense of a Claim. The Indemnified Party has control over defending a claim for a loss (including settling it) unless the Indemnified Party directs you to control the defense. If the Indemnified Party directs you to control the defense, you will not settle any litigation without the Indemnified Party’s written consent if the settlement (1) imposes a penalty or limitation on the Indemnified Party, (2) admits the Indemnified Party’s fault, or (3) does not fully release the Indemnified Party from liability. You and the Indemnified Party will cooperate in good faith on a claim.
​
No Exclusivity. The Indemnified Parties’ rights under this section do not affect other rights they might have.
​
Dispute Resolution
Jury Trial Waiver. Each party waives its right to a jury trial in proceedings arising out of or relating to this agreement. Either party may enforce this waiver up to and including the first day of trial.
​
Class Action Waiver. All claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding, and, unless we agree otherwise, the arbitrator will not consolidate more than one person’s claims. Both parties acknowledge that each party is waiving the right to participate in a class action.
​
Limitation on Time to Bring Claims. A party will not file a claim arising out of or relating to the Service or this agreement more than one year after the cause of action arose. Any claim brought after one year is barred.
General
Force Majeure. We and Clowder are not responsible for any failure to perform if unforeseen circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control delays or continues to delay our performance, including (a) acts of God, including fire, flood, earthquakes, hurricanes, tropical storms, or other natural disasters; (b) war, riot, arson, embargoes, acts of civil or military authority, or terrorism; (c) fiber cuts; (d) strikes, or shortages in transportation, facilities, fuel, energy, labor, or materials; (e) failure of the telecommunications or information services infrastructure; and (f) hacking, SPAM, or any failure of a computer, server, network, or software.
​
