UNITED STATES

THIS SECTION INCLUDES AN ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER THAT WILL IMPACT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION. PLEASE CLICK HERE TO READ THE ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND HERE FOR THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Applicable Laws and Jurisdiction. These Terms, their subject matter and their formation, including any arbitration proceeding outlined below, are governed by California law.


ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

■ This Section includes an arbitration agreement and an agreement that all claims will be brought only in an individual capacity (and not as a class action or other representative proceeding). Please read it carefully. You may opt out of the arbitration agreement by following the opt out procedure described below.

Arbitration Agreement. Any dispute, controversy, or claim (collectively, “Claim”) relating in any way to your use of the Service, or relating in any way to the communications between you and the Company or any other User of the Service, will be finally resolved by binding arbitration. This mandatory arbitration agreement applies equally to you and the Company. However, this arbitration agreement does not (a) govern any Claim by the Company for infringement of its Intellectual Property Rights or access to the Service that is unauthorized or exceeds authorization granted in these Terms; or (b) bar you from making use of applicable small claims court procedures in appropriate cases. If you are an individual, you may opt out of this arbitration agreement within thirty (30) days of the first of the date you access or use the Service by following the procedure described below.

■ You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and the Company are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision will survive any termination of these Terms.

■ The arbitration will be administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) then in effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of the date of these Terms).

■ Payment for any and all reasonable JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be in accordance with the JAMS Rules. If the value of your claim does not exceed $10,000, the Company will pay for the reasonable filing, administrative and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.

■ The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court, will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, unconscionability, arbitrability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable. However, the preceding sentence will not apply to the “Class Action Waiver” section below.

■ If you do not want to arbitrate disputes with the Company and you are an individual, you may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending an email to game-service@sparknexa.com within thirty (30) days of the first of the date you access or use the Service.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER: ANY CLAIM MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE RESPECTIVE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, MULTIPLE PLAINTIFF, OR SIMILAR PROCEEDING (“CLASS ACTION”). THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY ABILITY TO MAINTAIN ANY CLASS ACTION IN ANY FORUM. IF THE CLAIM IS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION, THE ARBITRATOR WILL NOT HAVE AUTHORITY TO COMBINE OR AGGREGATE SIMILAR CLAIMS OR CONDUCT ANY CLASS ACTION NOR MAKE AN AWARD TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY NOT A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION. ANY CLAIM THAT ALL OR PART OF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS UNENFORCEABLE, UNCONSCIONABLE, VOID, OR VOIDABLE MAY BE DETERMINED ONLY BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION AND NOT BY AN ARBITRATOR. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT ANY RIGHT TO LITIGATE IN COURT, TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE THEIR CASE, OR TO BE A PARTY TO A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, IS WAIVED, AND THAT ANY CLAIMS MUST BE DECIDED INDIVIDUALLY, THROUGH ARBITRATION.

■ If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the Arbitration Agreement, if otherwise effective, will be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and the Company each waive any right to a jury trial.

DMCA NOTICE

■ If you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and believe any content provided through the Service infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a notification of claimed infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) by providing notice to game-service@sparknexa.com containing the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of a copyright that is allegedly infringed; (b) a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; (c) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is provided through the Service; (d) your address, telephone number, and email address; (e) a written statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.  You acknowledge that if you fail to comply with all of the above requirements of this Section, your DMCA notice may not be valid.
