7. THE APP

(a)  Installation.  LeagueApps believes in providing users with clear, concise and complete disclosure before users download and install the App, including a description of the primary functions of the App.  The App requires user consent prior to installation.  LeagueApps does not believe that users should be deceived into downloading or installing the App.  In order to download the App, as made available on the Android® mobile platform, you must either utilize the options made available: (i) on the Site; or (ii) via participating Download Venues.  You understand and agree that LeagueApps shall not be liable to you, any other user or any third-party for any claim in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the App.

(b) Uninstall.  The App can be completely uninstalled in a straightforward manner and without requiring undue effort or skill, in most cases by using the traditional “add/remove” programs function contained within your Mobile Device.  Please be advised that in some instances, you may be required to restart your Mobile Device before all remnants of the App are completely uninstalled and removed from your Mobile Device. If you experience any problems installing and/or uninstalling the App, please contact us via e-mail at: legal@leagueapps.com.

THE APP IS NOT SPYWARE OR ADWARE.  THE APP WILL NOT DELIVER ADVERTISEMENTS TO YOUR MOBILE DEVICE, PROVIDED THAT ADVERTISEMENTS SUCH AS THE THIRD-PARTY ADS MAY APPEAR IN THE APP ITSELF.

(c) Download Venues.  The Agreement is entered into by and between you and LeagueApps, and not with the applicable Download Venue that you use to access the App.  As between LeagueApps and any participating Download Venue, LeagueApps is solely responsible for the App.  No Download Venue has any obligation to furnish any maintenance and/or support services with respect to the App. The Download Venues are third-party owned and operated websites.  Use of those stores shall be governed by the applicable venue’s agreements, terms and conditions.  LeagueApps does not control the Download Venues or any of the actions, policies or decisions made by the operators of those venues.

(d)  Remote Access, Updates and Bug Fixes.  LeagueApps reserves the right (but is not obligated) to add additional features or functions to the existing App, and to provide technical support including bug fixes, error corrections, patches, new releases or any other component not specified within these Terms of Service, from time-to-time.  When installed on a user’s Mobile Device, the App periodically communicates with LeagueApps servers.  LeagueApps may require the updating of the App residing on a user’s Mobile Device when LeagueApps releases a new version of the App, or when LeagueApps makes new features available.  The aforementioned technical support and/or updates may occur automatically without prior notice, or upon prior notice to you, and may occur all at once or over multiple sessions, in LeagueApps’ sole and absolute discretion.  By downloading the App, you hereby consent to these update/technical support services.  Our access to your Mobile Device will be limited to providing support and/or updating the App.  Where we are denied access for these purposes, your ability to utilize App-based Services may be limited.  Each user understands that we may require that user’s review and acceptance of our then-current Agreement before that user will be permitted to use any subsequent versions of the App.  Each user acknowledges and agrees that LeagueApps has no obligation to make any subsequent versions of the App available to that user, or to provide bug fixes, error corrections, patches, new releases or any other component not specified within the Agreement.

(e)  Third-Party Software.  ANY THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE, AS WELL AS ANY THIRD-PARTY PROVIDED PLUG-INS, THAT MAY BE PROVIDED WITH THE APP ARE MADE AVAILABLE FOR USE AT EACH USER’S SOLE OPTION AND RISK.  IF A USER CHOOSES TO USE SUCH THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE, THEN SUCH USE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY SUCH THIRD-PARTY’S LICENSING AGREEMENT(S), TERMS AND CONDITIONS AND PRIVACY PRACTICES.  LEAGUEAPPS IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE AND SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY USER’S USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE.

(f)  App License Grant/Termination.  Subject to the restrictions set forth in the Agreement, we grant to you a personal, non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, non-assignable, non-sublicensable, limited license to install and run the App and related software, in object code format only, on Mobile Devices owned or controlled by you, solely for the purpose of accessing and using the Services in accordance with the Agreement, and solely for so long as your Account is in good standing. You acknowledge that you are receiving licensed rights only. The licenses set forth in this Section shall be in effect unless and until this license is terminated by LeagueApps.  LeagueApps may terminate the licenses set forth in this Section and/or disable, remove or change the App and/or any portion thereof in its sole discretion at any time, with or without notice, by remote updates or otherwise. In addition, this license will terminate immediately with respect to a user if that user fails to comply with any term or condition of the Agreement.  Each user agrees upon expiration or termination of this license to immediately un-install the App.  You may not network the App among multiple Mobile Devices. You may not directly or indirectly, or authorize any person or entity to: (i) reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, re-engineer or otherwise create or attempt to create or permit, allow, or assist others to create the source code of the App and/or its structural framework; (ii) create derivative works of the App; (iii) use the App in whole or in part for any purpose except as expressly provided herein; or (iv) disable or circumvent any access control or related device, process or procedure established with respect to the App. You acknowledge that you have access to sufficient information such that you do not need to reverse engineer the App in any way to permit other products or information to interoperate with the App. You are responsible for all use of the App that is under your possession or control.

(g)  Export Restrictions.  Each user agrees that the App may not be transferred or exported into any other country or used in any manner prohibited by U.S. or other applicable export laws and regulations.

8. THIRD PARTIES AND USER INTERACTIONS

The Services may contain links to third party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by LeagueApps (including Member Web Sites), and includes features that allow you to interact and communicate with third parties (including sports organizers and sports registrants) (“Interactive Services”). When you access third party websites or interact or communicate with third parties through the Services, you do so at your own risk. LeagueApps has no control over and assumes no responsibility for, the content, information, materials, services, products, privacy policies or practices of, or opinions expressed in, any third-party websites, or which are posted to or through the Services by other parties, including those featured on Member Web Sites. Your interactions with organizations and/or individuals found on or through the Services are solely between you and such organizations and/or individuals. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline interaction with any other person.

LeagueApps is not responsible for the actions, content, information or data of any third parties, including sports organizers, sports registrants or other users. You are solely responsible for your interactions with sports organizers, sports registrants or other users of the Services, and any other parties with whom you interact through the Services. Additionally, your dealings with third parties found on the Services or participation in their promotions or activities, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms of those relationships (such as warranties or liability) are solely between you and such third parties. You agree that LeagueApps shall not be responsible for any harm, loss, or damage of any sort relating to your dealings with such third parties (including in relation to your participation in any activities of sports organizers).

If you have a dispute with one or more individuals or entities with whom you interact through the Services, you release us and our Covered Parties from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes, including damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, privacy or data. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to become involved in any way with these disputes. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” And, if you are not a California resident, you waive any applicable state statutes of a similar effect.

9. MEMBER CONTENT; FEEDBACK

You are legally responsible for all data, content or other information (“Member Content”) uploaded, posted or stored through your Member Account, on your Member Web Site, via the Interactive Services, via various surveys, questionnaires and feedback requests (collectively, “Surveys”) that we make available from time-to-time, and otherwise through your use of the Services. You are responsible for any Member Content that may be lost or unrecoverable through your use of the Services. You must provide all required and appropriate warnings, information and disclosure.

LeagueApps does not control the Member Content posted via the Services and as such, does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of such content.

Your Member Content remain your property.

We will only share and use your personally identifiable information in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

In connection with any Member Content, you represent and warrant the following:

If you are a sports organizer that uses LeagueApps to perform Services on your behalf, you agree that you are solely responsible for: (1) posting all legally required privacy policies and/or consumer notifications on your Member Web Site; (2) making all appropriate disclosures to visitors to your Member Web Site and to other end users whose information you collect, store and/or use; and (3) obtaining any necessary consent(s) from such individuals with respect to your collection, storage and use of personal information, including your disclosure of user personal information to third party service providers such as LeagueApps.

If you are a sports organizer that uses LeagueApps to perform Services on your behalf and you collect personal information from individuals, you acknowledge and agree that you will not collect, or cause to be collected and shared with, LeagueApps (or cause to be hosted on LeagueApps’ servers) certain types of sensitive personal information that could trigger state security breach notification laws in the event that such information is accessed by any unauthorized person, including, but not limited to, social security number, driver’s license number, bank account information or credit card numbers, unless such information is provided to LeagueApps by and through the system specifically designated by LeagueApps to protect and store such information. If such information is shared with LeagueApps, or hosted on LeagueApps’ servers in a manner that LeagueApps deems to be insecure, LeagueApps has the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion to delete and remove any such sensitive personal information. In the event that an incident of unauthorized access or disclosure of such sensitive personal information triggers state security breach notification laws because of your breach of this paragraph, you agree that you will be solely responsible for the timing, content, cost and method of providing any such notice to the affected parties, and for any other aspect of compliance with such laws.

10. INTEGRATION PARTNERS

LeagueApps may, from time-to-time, enable sports organizers to offer their sports registrants the opportunity to integrate their respective Member Accounts with those of various third-party service providers (“Integration Partners”).  Where a sports organizer offers its sports registrants the opportunity to integrate Member Accounts with any Integration Partner(s), the personal information of those sports registrants may be automatically shared with the applicable Integration Partner(s).  In light of the foregoing, each sports organizer represents and warrants that she/he/it will be fully responsible for obtaining all consents necessary to permit LeagueApps and the sports organizer to automatically share sports registrant personal information with the subject Integration Partner(s), as applicable.  Without limiting the foregoing, each sports organizer’s respective registration process and privacy policy shall include all required disclosures regarding the sharing of sports registrant personal information with Integration Partners.

18. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Initiating a Formal Claim

Any and all disputes or claims (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the dispute or claim) between you and LeagueApps shall be resolved by the processes set forth in these Terms of Service. LeagueApps provides the Services to you on the condition that you accept the dispute resolution provisions described below. Accordingly, if you initiate any claim against LeagueApps in any other manner, you shall be in violation of these Terms of Service and you agree that LeagueApps shall be entitled to have such action dismissed or otherwise terminated. You agree that prior to initiating any formal proceedings against LeagueApps, you will send us a notice to legal@leagueapps.com and state that you are providing a “Notice of Dispute.” Upon receipt of a Notice of Dispute, you and we shall attempt to resolve the dispute through informal negotiation within thirty (30) days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. If the dispute remains unresolved, either you or we may initiate formal proceedings according to these Terms of Service.

You and LeagueApps agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between us shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.

Our arbitration proceedings would be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules and procedures applicable at that time, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (to the extent applicable), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You may review those rules and procedures, and obtain a form, known as a “Demand for Arbitration,” for initiating arbitration proceedings at www.adr.org. The arbitration shall be held in New York, New York. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, either of us may elect to have the arbitration conducted according to the Alternative Dispute Resolution Process described above.

The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users of the Services, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court possessing jurisdiction over the parties, except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act.

The AAA rules will govern the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees, unless our Arbitration Agreement expressly provides otherwise. The parties will share the costs of the arbitration until the final determination is made, at which point, the arbitrator will be permitted to award the prevailing party legal costs of the arbitration.

YOU AND LEAGUEAPPS AGREE, AS PART OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS PART OF ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING (REFERRED TO HEREIN AS THE “PROHIBITION OF CLASS AND REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS”). UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN YOUR OR OUR CLAIM WITH ANOTHER PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES.

Except with respect to the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions described above, if a court decides that any part of this Arbitration Agreement is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of this Arbitration Agreement shall continue to apply. If a court decides that the Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions is invalid or unenforceable, then this entire Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void. The remainder of these Terms of Service and this section will continue to apply.

Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR THE SERVICES MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

19. VIOLATIONS

Please report any violations of these Terms of Service directly to LeagueApps.

20. PRIVACY

You agree to allow LeagueApps and/or its service providers, partners, sponsors and affiliates to use your information consistent with our Privacy Policy. Sports organizers agree to use any sport registrant information that is collected through and/or stored within the Services in a manner that is consistent with its own privacy policy, as well as the LeagueApps Privacy Policy, and to provide at least the same level of protection for personal information as that provided by the LeagueApps Privacy Policy. LeagueApps is not responsible and disclaims all liability for any use or loss of data or information collected through or stored within the Services by sports organizers.

21. WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY

No waiver by LeagueApps of any term or condition set forth in the Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of LeagueApps to assert a right or provision under Privacy Policy shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of Privacy Policy is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of Privacy Policy will continue in full force and effect.

22. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and any agreement you may enter into with LeagueApps in connection with the Services, if applicable, constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and LeagueApps with respect to the Services and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Services.

23. MISCELLANEOUS

LeagueApps shall not be liable for any failure to perform its obligations hereunder. These Terms of Service and any subsequent versions of these Terms of Service posted to the Site and App will be deemed a legally binding contract signed by both parties. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of these Terms of Service and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind LeagueApps in any respect whatsoever.
