Other

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under the U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK infringe your copyright, you, or your agent may send to FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK a notice requesting that the material be removed or access to it be blocked. Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send to FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK a counter-notice. All notices and counter notices must meet the then current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK’s Copyright Agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement or counter notices can be reached as follows: [email protected].

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK and our respective assigns, successors, heirs, and legal representatives. Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned without the prior written consent of FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights and obligations under this Agreement may be freely assigned by FOOD REVOLUTION NETWORK to any affiliated entity or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries

Dispute Resolution:

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California and any dispute shall be subject to binding arbitration in Santa Cruz, CA. If any provision of this agreement shall be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from this agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Class Action Waiver

You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed.

The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless all relevant parties specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration.

Severability

If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision, and the remainder of this Provision will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable, and the dispute will then be resolved using the most effective legal or equitable remedy available. In such cases, both parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within the legal jurisdiction of our headquarters for the purpose of litigating all such disputes unless an alternative dispute resolution method is agreed upon by both parties.
