9. Virtual Items.

9.1.1. Certain Blastworks games or applications provide the opportunity for you to purchase, obtain and use a type or types of fictional (“virtual”) in-game items, which may include such things as virtual credits, chips, golden spinners, coins, tickets, or points (“Virtual Items”). REGARDLESS OF THE TERMINOLOGY USED, VIRTUAL ITEMS ARE NOT LEGAL TENDER (I.E., “REAL MONEY”), DO NOT HAVE MONETARY VALUE, AND MAY NOT BE REDEEMED FOR LEGAL TENDER OR OTHER ITEMS OF MONETARY VALUE OUTSIDE OF THE GAME OR APPLICATION.

9.1.2. In some instances, Virtual Items may be obtained free of charge by logging into a game or application, accomplishing certain tasks within a game or application, being gifted from friends within a game or application, or through other events as may be made available from time to time by us. Virtual Items obtained via a game or application are provided to you under a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to use within the game or application. Blastworks may revoke your access to or license to use Virtual Items at any time for any reason. YOU HAVE NO PROPERTY INTEREST, RIGHT OR TITLE IN OR TO ANY VIRTUAL ITEMS APPEARING OR ORIGINATING IN A GAME OR APPLICATION, OR ANY OTHER ATTRIBUTES ASSOCIATED WITH USE OF A GAME. All Virtual Items are forfeited if your account or access to the game or application is terminated or suspended for any reason, which Blastworks may do in its sole and absolute discretion, or if Blastworks discontinues availability of a game or application or if you disconnect from the game or application via your SNS Account.

9.1.3. The license you acquire in Virtual Items are personal to you and you may not sell, assign, gift, trade, sublicense or otherwise transfer any Virtual Items. Blastworks prohibits and does not recognize any purported sale, assignment, gift, trade, sublicense or transfer of Virtual Items, whether for legal tender, goods, services, or any other exchange outside of the Services. Any such transfer or attempted transfer is prohibited, void, and may subject you to a termination of your account, a temporary or permanent ban from accessing and using the Services, and legal action.

9.1.4. Any sale of Virtual Items to you is final. No refunds will be given, except in Blastworks’ sole and absolute discretion. Blastworks has no liability for hacking or loss of your Virtual Items or any goods or services obtained via Virtual Items. Blastworks has no obligation to, and will not, reimburse you for any Virtual Items or any goods or services obtained via Virtual Items that are lost due to your violation of these Terms. Blastworks reserves the right, without prior notification, to limit the order quantity on any Virtual Items or to refuse to provide you with any Virtual Items. Price and availability of Virtual Items are determined by Blastworks in its sole discretion and are subject to change without notice.

NEITHER BLASTWORKS NOR ANY PERSON ASSOCIATED WITH BLASTWORKS MAKES ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION WITH RESPECT TO THE COMPLETENESS, SECURITY, RELIABILITY, QUALITY, ACCURACY, OR AVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICES OR ANY CONTENT OR MATERIALS OBTAINED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES.

10.5. BLASTWORKS DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

10.6 Some jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers of warranties such as those set forth above and, therefore, the above disclaimers may not apply to you. Instead, in such jurisdictions, the foregoing disclaimers shall only apply to the extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdictions. Additionally, you may have additional legal rights in your jurisdiction, and nothing in these Terms shall infringe upon or limit such rights.

11. Limitation of Liability.

11.1. IN NO EVENT WILL BLASTWORKS, ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS OR DIRECTORS BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM ACCESS, USE OR MALFUNCTION OF THE SERVICES, ANY CONTENT ON THE SERVICES, OR ANY ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH USE OF THE SERVICES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, DEVICE FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES FROM ANY CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICES, WHETHER ARISING IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY AND WHETHER OR NOT BLASTWORKS HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

11.2. IN THE EVENT THAT AN ARBITRATOR OR COURT OF LAW DETERMINES THAT, DESPITE THE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 11.1, BLASTWORKS HAS INCURRED LIABILITY TO YOU, BLASTWORKS´ TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, THE PRIVACY POLICY, OR THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (I) THE ACTUAL PRICE (IF ANY) YOU PAID FOR THE LICENSE TO USE VIRTUAL ITEMS; OR (II) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS (U.S. $100.00). THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN BLASTWORKS AND YOU.

11.3. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations of liability such as those set forth above and, therefore, the above limitations of liability may not apply to you. Instead, in such jurisdictions, the foregoing limitations of liability shall apply only to the extent permitted by the laws of such jurisdictions. Additionally, you may have additional legal rights in your jurisdiction, and nothing in these Terms will infringe upon or limit such rights.

12. Indemnification. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Blastworks, its affiliates, licensors and service providers, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to: (a) your violation of these Terms; (b) your use of the Services, including, but not limited to, any use of a game, application, software, related content and/or services and products other than as expressly authorized in these Terms; (c) your use of any information obtained from the Services; and (d) Your Content.

13. Dispute Resolution: Agreement to Arbitrate.

Please read the following provisions carefully, as they affect your rights.

13.1. Agreement to Arbitrate. YOU AND BLASTWORKS MUTUALLY AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OR THE APPLICABILITY, BREACH, TERMINATION, VALIDITY, ENFORCEMENT OR INTERPRETATION THEREOF, TO THE ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, STATUTE, REGULATION, ORDINANCE, TORT (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, FRAUDULENT INDUCEMENT, OR NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (COLLECTIVELY, “DISPUTE”) WILL BE SETTLED BY BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 13 (THE “ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”). ARBITRATION MEANS THAT THE DISPUTE WILL BE RESOLVED BY A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY. THE ARBITRATOR WILL DECIDE ALL THRESHOLD QUESTIONS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ISSUES RELATING TO THE ENFORCEABILITY, REVOCABILITY, OR VALIDITY OF THIS SECTION 13 AND WHETHER EITHER PARTY LACKS STANDING TO ASSERT HIS/HER/ITS CLAIM(S).

13.2. Exceptions to the Arbitration Agreement. Notwithstanding the Arbitration Agreement, you and Blastworks each agree that (i) any dispute that may be brought in small claims court may be instituted in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) either you or Blastworks may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to enjoin infringement or other misuse of either party’s intellectual property rights (including without limitation, violation of any data use restrictions contained in these Terms) or based on other exigent circumstances (e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack).

13.3. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution and Notification. Prior to initiating an arbitration, you and Blastworks each agree to notify the other party of the dispute and attempt to negotiate an informal resolution to it first. We will contact you at the email address you have provided to us; you can contact Blastworks’ customer service team by emailing us at [email protected]. If, after a good faith effort to negotiate, one of us feels the dispute has not and cannot be resolved informally, the party intending to pursue arbitration agrees to notify the other party via email prior to initiating the arbitration.

13.4. The Arbitration. Any arbitration, if required, will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its then current and applicable rules and procedures, which are located at adr.org, and those rules will govern the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees unless this Section 14 expressly provides otherwise. The party submitting a dispute for resolution through arbitration, will pay AAA’s filing fee. Each party will pay their pro rata share of administration and arbitrator fees under AAA’s rules; provided, however, if AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules are applicable, Blastworks will make arrangements to pay all necessary administration and arbitrator fees directly to AAA. If AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules are applicable and you lose the claim(s) you assert against Blastworks, you agree to reimburse Blastworks for your pro rata share of administration and arbitrator fees as part of any arbitrator award; provided, however, if you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Blastworks will pay as much of the administration and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to litigation. If the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are frivolous or that you asserted the claim(s) for harassment or any other improper purpose, you agree to reimburse Blastworks for all administration and arbitrator fees paid by Blastworks as part of any arbitration award. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and costs unless there is an applicable statutory provision requiring the prevailing party to be paid its attorneys’ fees and costs, in which case, a prevailing party attorneys’ fees award shall be determined by applicable law.

The arbitration shall be held in Newark, New Jersey in English before a single arbitrator selected in accordance with AAA rules. If the value of the relief sought is U.S. $25,000 or less, the arbitration will be conducted based solely on written submissions; provided, however, either party may request to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or in-person hearing, which request shall be subject to the arbitrator’s discretion. Attendance at any in-person hearing may be made by telephone or other remote means by you and/or us, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise after hearing from the parties on the issue. Keeping in mind that arbitration is intended to be a fast and economical process, either party may file a dispositive motion to narrow the issues or claims. Subject to the exclusions and waivers in these Terms, the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be made in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern any Dispute.

13.5. No Class Actions or Representative Proceedings. YOU AND BLASTWORKS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AS TO ALL DISPUTES. FURTHER, UNLESS YOU AND BLASTWORKS BOTH OTHERWISE AGREE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If the class action waiver contained in this Section 13.5 is determined to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Section 13 will be unenforceable, and the Dispute will be decided by the courts in the state of New Jersey, Essex County, or the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.

13.6. Jury Trial Waiver. YOU AND BLASTWORKS ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AS TO ALL ARBITRABLE DISPUTES AND AS TO ANY DISPUTE THAT PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN ARBITRATION AS PROVIDED HEREIN.

13.7. Severability. Except as provided in Section 13.5, if any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed illegal or unenforceable by the arbitrator, such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall be given full force and effect. If the arbitrator determines this Section 13 is unenforceable, invalid or has been revoked as to any claim(s), then the Dispute as to such claim(s) will be decided by the courts in the state of New Jersey, Essex County, or the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, and the parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.

14. Limitation on Time to File Claims. ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS 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.

15. Malfunctions

15.1. In the event of a system malfunction all wagers then in effect shall be void.

15.2. If a system malfunction or technical problem causes an application or game to pay out or credit a higher amount than should be paid or credited to a player’s Account, or a display issue causes a wrong result to be displayed, we reserve the right to remove all funds (or not pay or not credit the incorrectly displayed amount) from the Account that were incorrectly credited as well as any winnings subsequently won by using the incorrectly credited funds

15.3. If we determine that you have exploited or are exploiting a technical error related to an application or game, either alone or in association with others, we reserve the right to void any winnings and to close your Account.

15.4. In the event a game is started, and you place a wager, but the game miscarries because of a system malfunction, we will credit your account for the amount wagered by you at the time of the miscarry or, if your account no longer exists, refund the amount to you.

15.5. If, after you have made a wager, a game is interrupted by a telecommunications system failure or a failure of your computer system which prevents you from continuing the game, then upon our restoration of the game, we shall take commercially reasonable steps to enable you to resume your participation in the game as of the point in the game immediately before the interruption occurred. If we are unable to allow you to resume participation in the game as of the point in the game immediately before the interruption occurred, we shall (a) ensure that the game is terminated, and (b) credit your account for the amount of your wager (or, if your account no longer exists, refund the amount to you).

16. General Terms.
