If you do not agree to this international transfer of data, then you must refrain from using the Services.
By accessing and/or using the Services (whether such use is intended or not), you agree to be bound by all of the provisions of this Terms of Use Agreement (“this Agreement”). If you do not accept and agree to all of the provisions of this Agreement, you are not authorized to access and/or use the Services.

If you are accessing and/or using the Services on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to this Agreement and your agreement to these terms will be treated as the agreement of the entity. This Agreement constitutes legally binding terms and applies to all use of the Services regardless of the type of device used to access them (“Device”) unless such Services post a different terms of use agreement or end user license agreement (“Additional Terms”), in which case such Additional Terms shall instead govern.

19. U.S. Export Controls. You may not download, use, export or reexport any content posted on or through the Services or any software utilized or available in connection with the Services in violation of any applicable laws or regulations, including, without limitation, United States export laws, regulations and controls.
20. Disputes.
20.1. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
20.2. Except for disputes arising from an alleged violation of intellectual property rights or breach of confidentiality, for which the injured party may suffer irreparable harm and may seek a restraining order, preliminary injunctive relief, an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief and/or legal remedies, and actions to enforce the decisions of the arbitrators, all disputes arising out of or related to this Agreement, including the scope, the construction or application of this Agreement, shall be resolved by arbitration in Los Angeles, California, using the English language in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS then in effect, before a single arbitrator who shall be a retired judge or justice of any California state or federal court with substantial experience in the entertainment industry, in accordance with California code of civil procedure §§ 1280 et seq. The arbitrator shall be selected by mutual agreement of the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, then by striking from a list of arbitrators supplied by JAMS. YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE SUCH A DISPUTE IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. The prevailing party in the arbitration will be entitled to seek reimbursement of its reasonable expenses (including reasonable outside attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred in connection therewith. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction.
20.3. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of FullBloom and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by FullBloom’s individual claim. The arbitrator may not order FullBloom to pay any monies to or take any actions with respect to persons other than you, unless FullBloom explicitly consents in advance, after an arbitrator is selected, to permit the arbitrator to enter such an order. YOU AND FULLBLOOM AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR MULTI-CLAIMANT PROCEEDING. Further, unless FullBloom agrees, the arbitrator may not consolidate other persons’ claims with yours, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative, multi-claimant or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration agreement shall be null and void, but the rest of this Agreement, including the provisions governing where actions against FullBloom must be pursued, will remain in effect.
20.4. You and FullBloom agree to maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and shall not disclose the fact of the arbitration, any documents exchanged as part of any mediation, proceedings of the arbitration, the arbitrator’s decision and the existence or amount of any award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration (in which case anyone becoming privy to confidential information must undertake to preserve its confidentiality), or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a provisional remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or court order.
20.5. You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these terms or the Services that is not subject to arbitration shall be filed, and that venue properly lies, only in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California, United States of America and you consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating such action.
21. Operation of Services; Availability of Products and Services. FullBloom provides the Services in the United States of America. FullBloom does not represent that the Services or any content on the Services are appropriate (or, in some cases, available) for use in other locations. If you access or use the Website or the Services from a location outside of the United States, you agree that you do so of your own initiative, and you are responsible for complying with local laws as applicable to your access and/or use of the Website or the Services from such location. The Services may not be available worldwide or accessible nationwide, and FullBloom makes no representation that you will be able to obtain any portion of the Services in any particular location, either within or outside of the United States.
22. Indemnity; Waiver of Injunctive Relief. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless FullBloom, its subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors and assignees and their respective officers, directors, managers, agents, partners and employees, from and against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages and demands, including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of (i) your access to and/or use of the Services, including, without limitation, any, services and/or products offered thereby or in connection therewith; and/or (ii) a violation or breach by you, or any user of your account, of any terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, a breach of any of the representations, warranties or agreements set forth in this Agreement. This defense and indemnification obligation will survive the expiration/termination of this Agreement and/or your use of the Services. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU CLAIM THAT YOU HAVE INCURRED ANY LOSS, DAMAGES, OR INJURIES IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, THEN THE LOSSES, DAMAGES, AND INJURIES WILL NOT BE IRREPARABLE OR SUFFICIENT TO ENTITLE YOU TO AN INJUNCTION OR TO OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND. THIS MEANS (WITHOUT LIMITATION) THAT, IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR CLAIM, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT SEEK, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN, ANY COURT OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF THE WEBSITE, THE SERVICES, OR OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED OR CONTROLLED BY FULLBLOOM. However, you acknowledge that any breach or anticipatory breach by you of this Agreement may result in harm to FullBloom not capable of a remedy of money damages alone and accordingly in addition to any action at law for damages, FullBloom will be entitled to seek injunctive and other equitable relief.
23. Survival. Following the termination of your account or your use of the Services, the provisions of this Agreement and all rights, liabilities and obligations acquired hereunder by you and/or FullBloom shall survive in perpetuity and remain in full force and effect.
24. Other. This Agreement, the Additional Terms and the Privacy Policy set forth the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Services. FullBloom has the right to assign this Agreement and/or its rights hereunder, in whole or in part, to any third party. You do not have the right to assign this Agreement. The failure of FullBloom to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver by FullBloom of such right or provision. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. This Agreement operates to the fullest extent permissible by law. If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision (i) is deemed severable from this Agreement and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions which shall remain in full force and effect and (ii) shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary to comply with the applicable law. FullBloom reserves all rights in and to the FullBloom Website, the Services and the content posted thereon, unless otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement. FullBloom reserves the right to modify or discontinue any aspect of the Services at any time without prior notice and without any liability to you.
