Oooh (“Oooh,” “we,” “us,” “our”) provides mobile and web applications and related services (collectively, the “Platform”), that are subject to the following Terms of Service (the “Terms”).  The Terms serve as an agreement between you and us and set forth the terms and conditions by which you may access and use the Platform.  The Terms apply to all users of the Platform.  For purposes of these Terms, we refer to all users collectively as “you,” “your,” or “users.”

The Platform is not available to persons under the age of 13. If you are between the ages of 13 and the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction of residence, you may only use the Platform under the supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms of Service.  Please be sure your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and discussed these Terms with you.  If you are a parent or guardian of a user under the age of 18 and over the age of 13, you acknowledge and agree that you have the authority to provide this consent on behalf of such user and that you provide consent for such user to use the Platform.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY, AS THEY GOVERN YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM.  PLEASE ALSO FULLY REVIEW SECTION 14 “MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER” AS THIS PROVISION WILL REQUIRE YOU TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH US ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, INCLUDING SECTION 15, PLEASE DO NOT USE THE PLATFORM.

2. Modifications to the Terms

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms at any time. If we do this, depending on the nature of the change, we will post the changes on the Platform and indicate the new effective date at the top of the document.  Depending on the type of change, we may also provide you other reasonable means of notification as required by applicable law.  Your continued use of the Platform after the date any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. In addition, when using certain aspects of the Platform, you may be subject to any additional terms applicable to the Platform that may be posted and presented to you on the Platform from time to time.

Oooh respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our users to do the same.  We may, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, remove or disable access to material on the services that infringes upon the copyright rights of others.  In the event that any users of our services repeatedly infringe on others’ copyrights, we may in our sole discretion terminate those individuals’ rights to use the services.

If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, you should notify Oooh of your infringement claim by following the instructions in this Section.

To be effective, the notification must be in writing and contain the following information:

  • an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest;
  • a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed (including, for example, a particular video segment);
  • a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Platform, with enough detail that we may find it on the Platform;
  • your address, telephone number, and email address;
  • a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright or intellectual property owner, its agent, or the law;
  • a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner’s behalf.

Notices which meet all of these requirements will be considered “DMCA Notices” for purposes of Oooh’s repeat infringer policy.  Oooh’s copyright agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement can be reached at the following:

Copyright Agent

Oooh

Copyright@oooh.tv

Oooh, Inc., WeWork in Century City: 10250 Constellation Blvd,    

Los Angeles, CA 90067

Counter-Notice.  If you believe that your User Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, to upload and use the Content in your User Content, you may send a written counter-notice to the Copyright Agent above containing the following information to us at the contact information listed above:

  • your physical or electronic signature;
  • identification of the Content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the Content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
  • a statement that you have a good faith belief that the Content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the Content; and
  • your name, address, telephone number, and email address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court located within Northern District of California and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by us, we will send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that we may replace the removed Content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider or user, the removed Content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our sole discretion.

Repeat Infringer Policy. Oooh reserves the right to remove or disable access to material on our websites or services that infringes upon the copyright rights of others.  Oooh will, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, terminate a user’s account if it is determined the user is a repeat infringer.  A repeat infringer is a user for whom Oooh has received multiple DMCA notifications.  Oooh, however, reserves the right in its sole discretion to terminate a user at any time for copyright infringement, even without receiving a DMCA notice.

Upon receiving a DMCA notice, Oooh will provide a copy of the notice to the affected user.  If the affected user provides Oooh with a counter-notice that complies with this policy in response to the DMCA notice, and the copyright owner providing the DMCA notice does not answer or during the course of legal proceedings a court finds that the Oooh user has not infringed a copyright, the notice will not count as a notification for purposes of Oooh’ repeat infringer policy.  Likewise, if the copyright owner retracts his or her notice, it will not count as a DMCA notification under this policy.

9. Third Party Websites

The Platform may provide, or third parties may provide, links or other access to third-party sites and services. Oooh has no control over such sites and services and Oooh is not responsible for and does not endorse such sites and services.

Tokens and Achievements cannot be sold or transferred to third parties, including other users, cannot be used outside the Platform, and cannot be exchanged for cash or for any other goods or services.

14. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to choice or conflict of law rules thereof.  The exclusive jurisdiction and venue for actions related to these Terms are the state courts located in Los Angeles County, California, or the United States District Court for the Central District of California, and both parties submit to the personal jurisdiction of these courts.

15. MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

Application. You and we agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions. This section entitled “Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver” is intended to be interpreted broadly and governs any and all disputes between you and us. Any and all disputes may include, but are not limited to (i) claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; (ii) claims that arose before these Terms or any prior agreement (including, but not limited to, claims related to advertising); and (iii) claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms. The only disputes excluded from the broad prohibition in this subsection entitled “Application” are the litigation of certain intellectual property and small court claims, as provided in the subsection entitled “Exception” below.

Initial Dispute Resolution. Most disputes can be resolved without resorting to arbitration. If you have any dispute with us, you agree that you will try to resolve your dispute with us before taking any formal action by contacting us at legal@oooh.tv. When you contact us, you must provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information. If you have an account with us, you must include the email address associated with your account. Except for intellectual property and small claims court claims (see the subsection entitled “Exception” below), you and we agree to use good faith efforts to resolve any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation with each other. You and we agree to engage in good faith discussions before initiating a lawsuit or arbitration and understand that good faith discussions are a precondition of initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

Binding Arbitration. If we do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims (except as provided in the subsection entitled “Exception” below). Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including the Terms’ formation, performance, and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other, and/or your use of the Platform shall  be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with either (i) the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Procedure Rules, for claims that do not exceed $250,000; or (ii) the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, for claims exceeding $250,000. The JAMS rules and procedures just identified shall be those effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (not the Last Modified date of these Terms), excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. Contact information for JAMS, as well as copies of the JAMS rules and applicable forms, are available at www.jamsadr.com.

Arbitrator’s Powers. The arbitrator (and not any federal, state, or local court or agency) shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms. Such disputes may include, but are not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, or the question of waiver by litigation conduct. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be written and shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Filing a Demand. To start an arbitration, you must do all three of the following: (i) Write a Demand for Arbitration that includes a description of the claim and the amount of damages you seek to recover (you may find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com); (ii) send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to JAMS, 555 West 5th Street, 32nd Floor, Los Angeles, California, 90013 ; and (iii) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to us at: Oooh, Inc., WeWork in Century City: 10250 Constellation Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90067

When you initiate arbitration against us, you are required to pay up to $250 of the Filing Fee to initiate arbitration. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds that amount, we will pay the additional cost. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, we will pay the fees invoiced by JAMS, including filing fees and arbitrator and hearing expenses. You are responsible for your own attorneys' fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.

The parties understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration may take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing, unless you and we both agree to another location or telephonic arbitration. For individuals residing outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in California, United States, and you and us agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in California in order to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

Class Action Waiver. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. This means that you and we expressly waive any rights to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed  to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

Exception: Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy, or unauthorized use of intellectual property in state or federal court with jurisdiction or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights. “Intellectual property rights” means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets—but does not include privacy or publicity rights. Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. You and we agree that to the extent that either party has a good faith belief that a dispute falls within the jurisdiction of the small claims court in the U.S. county (or parish) of your residence or in California, either party may elect to have such dispute adjudicated in such small claims court. Such election can be made by either party even after the other party initiates an arbitration.  In such case, the party that initiated the arbitration agrees to dismiss or suspend the arbitration and seek to resolve the dispute in small claims court. You and we agree that in the situation where an arbitration is already initiated and one party invokes the small claims court option, any dispute regarding whether the dispute is properly within the jurisdiction of a small claims court shall be resolved by the small claims court in the first instance (unless it is unwilling to do so) and not the arbitrator or JAMS.

30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to at legal@oooh.tv. Your written notice must have the subject line, “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.” The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of (i) the Effective Date of these Terms; or (ii) your first date that you used the Platform, whichever is later. Otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with this section entitled “Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver.” If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them.

Changes to This Section. We will provide thirty (30) days' notice of any material changes to this Section by posting notice on the Platform or informing you via email, and complying with any other applicable legal notice or consent requirements. Amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the Platform or sent to you by email. Changes to this Section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day.

If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection (“Changes to this Section”) is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection will be deemed to be severed from the Section entitled “Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver.” If this happens, the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section or similar section in existence after you began using the Platform.

Survival. This Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver Section shall survive any termination of your use of the Platform.
