  1. DMCA NOTICE: NOTICE AND PROCEDURE FOR MAKING CLAIMS OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

The Company will respond to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”). Copyright-infringing materials found on the Services can be identified and removed via our DMCA process listed below. You agree to comply with this DMCA process in the event you are involved in any claim of copyright infringement to which the DMCA may be applicable.

If you believe in good faith that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide pharosIQ’s copyright agent with the written information specified below. Please note that this procedure is exclusively for notifying pharosIQ that your copyrighted material has been infringed. The Company does not and will not make any legal decisions about the validity of your claim of infringement or the possible defenses to a claim.

If we receive a clear and valid notice as outlined in the guidelines below, pharosIQ will respond by either removing the allegedly infringing content or blocking access to it. The Company may reach out to the notice provider to request additional information.

Under the DMCA, pharosIQ is required to take reasonable steps to notify the user who posted the allegedly infringing content (“Alleged Infringer”).

The Alleged Infringer is allowed under the law to send the Company a counter-notification. Notices and counter-notices are legal notices distinct from regular activities or communications as part of the Services. We may publish or share them with third parties at our sole discretion (in addition to producing them pursuant to a subpoena or other legal discovery request).

Anyone making a false or fraudulent notice or counter-notice may be liable for damages under the DMCA, including costs and attorneys’ fees. Any person who is unsure of whether a particular material infringes a copyright held by such person or a third party should contact an attorney.

To file a DMCA notice, the copyright owner must send a written letter by fax, regular mail, or email only. We reserve the right to ignore a notice that is not in compliance with the DMCA, and we may, but are not obligated to, respond to a non-compliant notice.

A DMCA notice must:

  1. Identify specifically the copyrighted work(s) believed to have been infringed (for example, “My copyrighted work is the picture that appears at [list location where material is located].”);
  2. Identify the content that a copyright owner claims is infringing upon copyrighted work. The copyright owner must provide information reasonably sufficient to enable us to locate the item on the Services. The copyright owner should provide clear screenshots of the allegedly infringing materials for identification purposes only. The information provided should be as detailed as possible;
  3. Provide information sufficient to permit us to contact the copyright owner directly: name, street address, telephone number, and email (if available);
  4. If available, provide information sufficient to permit us to notify the Alleged Infringer (email address preferred);
  5. Include the following statement: “I have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law”;
  6. Include the following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed”;
  7. Be signed; and
  8. Be sent to our DMCA designated agent at the following address:

THE COMPANY ENTITIES’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES FINALLY AWARDED SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00), OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID THE COMPANY ENTITIES, IF ANY, IN THE PAST SIX (6) MONTHS FOR THE SERVICES (OR OFFERINGS PURCHASED ON THE SERVICES) GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW FOR INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS IN CONSUMER AGREEMENTS; THUS, THESE INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

No provision in these Terms shall apply to any consumer in New Jersey if the provision limits remedies for (i) negligence, (ii) merchandise liability claims, (iii) the punitive damages laws, (iv) the New Jersey Uniform Commercial Code, or (v) failure to reasonably protect against harm arising from certain criminal acts of third parties (e.g., computer hacking and identity theft).

The Company reserves all rights, defenses, and permissible limitations under the laws of New Jersey and the laws of your state of residence.

  1. LOCAL RIGHTS AND NON-EXCLUDABLE PROTECTIONS

These Terms of Service are intended to apply globally. Nothing in these Terms is intended to limit or exclude any rights, protections, or remedies that individuals may have under the mandatory laws of their place of residence. To the extent such rights cannot be waived or restricted, they remain fully preserved and continue to apply in addition to the disclosures and commitments set out in our policies.

For example, certain jurisdictions provide consumers with rights that cannot be excluded by contract. For example, Australian users are protected by the Australian Consumer Law, which provides non‑excludable guarantees for the supply of goods and services. Nothing in our Terms limits or replaces those statutory rights. Similar mandatory protections may apply in other countries, and those rights continue to operate alongside these Terms.

  1. DISPUTE RESOLUTION: ARBITRATION AGREEMENT; CLASS WAIVER; WAIVER OF TRIAL BY JURY
  1. WAIVER OF RIGHTS.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY. THIS COVERS ANY DISAGREEMENT, DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS, YOUR USE OF OUR SERVICES, USER-GENERATED CONTENT, OR ANY OTHER ASPECT OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH PATHOSWHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE (“DISPUTE”) EXCEPT THE FOLLOWING:

  • ANY DISPUTE FALLING WITHIN THE JURISDICTIONAL SCOPE AND AMOUNT OF AN APPROPRIATE SMALL CLAIMS COURT MUST BE BROUGHT IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND
  • ANY DISPUTE SEEKING TO ENJOIN INFRINGEMENT OR OTHER MISUSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION.

EACH PARTY MAY PROCEED IN ANY DISPUTE ONLY IN THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR MASS ARBITRATION.

BY ENTERING INTO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, INDEPENDENT OF THE REMAINING PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS, AND BY AGREEING TO A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS OR MASS ARBITRATIONS, EACH OF US IS GIVING UP CERTAIN RIGHTS INCLUDING:

  • THE RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL. INSTEAD, WE WILL HAVE A HEARING BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND THE DISCOVERY AND APPEAL PROCESS IS DIFFERENT.
  • THE RIGHT TO PURSUE CLASS ACTIONS, CLASS ARBITRATION OR MASS ARBITRATION, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS.
    1. Good Faith Negotiations. We always prefer to resolve Disputes by negotiating in good faith. Either party may attempt to resolve a Dispute through good-faith negotiations. In the event of a Dispute, each party shall first send written notice of the Dispute, which includes your name, address, email address, phone number, and a description of the relief you are seeking (“Dispute Notice”). Within 30 days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (unless mutually agreed by the parties), the parties shall meet virtually at a mutually acceptable date and time. At no point during this time shall either party initiate litigation or arbitration, except for Disputes subject to injunctive or other equitable relief. If the Parties cannot resolve the Dispute within 60 days of the Dispute Notice, either party may pursue individual arbitration proceedings as described below.
    2. MUTUAL ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
      1. Arbitration of Individual Disputes. Any dispute that cannot be resolved through good faith negotiations must be pursued through binding arbitration on an individual basis as outlined in this section (the “Arbitration Agreement”). A single arbitrator will administer the arbitration.
      2. AAA Proceedings. Either you or pharosIQ may bring an arbitration proceeding. All arbitrations shall be filed with and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”). You may obtain instructions on how to file an arbitration with AAA by calling AAA at 1-(800) 778-7897 or online at www.adr.org, or we can assist you in contacting AAA.
  • Scope of Arbitrator’s Decision Making. The Parties agree that the arbitrator shall decide all Disputes and all related issues, excluding (a) issues expressly reserved for a court decision in these Terms, (b) issues that relate to the scope, validity, and enforceability of the Arbitration Agreement, class action waiver, jury waiver or any of the dispute resolution provisions of these Terms; (c) issues that relate to the arbitrability of any Dispute; (d) whether a Dispute is barred by the statute of limitations or a contractual provision in these Terms; (e) issues related to the scope, application and enforceability of the waiver provisions that are for the court to decide, or (f) whether filing of a demand for arbitration was authorized by a party. All other issues are for the arbitrator to decide.
  1. Final and Binding Decision. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding and will not have precedential effect. The arbitrator shall not have the authority to award damages outside of those set forth in these Terms. Any final award or judgment may be filed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Parties will bear the costs of the arbitration in accordance with the AAA Rules. Any arbitration proceeding may not be consolidated or joined with any other proceeding.
  2. Applicability of the FAA. The parties acknowledge that this Arbitration Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections 1–16, shall govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement, and not state law.
  3. Confidentiality. The parties expressly agree that any actions taken under the Arbitration Agreement and related provisions, including but not limited to all filings, subject matter, orders, judgments, and awards made in any arbitration proceeding, are confidential and may not be disclosed to any third party.
  • Survival. This Arbitration Agreement provision will survive the termination of these Terms.
  • Mass Arbitrations. If 25 or more arbitration demands asserting the same or substantially similar claims, and seeking the same or substantially similar relief are submitted to AAA with the assistance or coordination of the same law firm(s) or legal entities against either party (a “Mass Filing”), the parties agree (i) to administer the Mass Filing in batches of 10 demands per batch with only one batch filed, processed, and adjudicated at a time; (ii) to designate one arbitrator for each batch; (iii) to accept applicable fees, including any related fee reduction determined by AAA Rules in its discretion; (iv) that no other demands for arbitration that are part of the Mass Filing may be filed, processed, or adjudicated until the prior batch of 10 is adjudicated; (v) that fees associated with a demand for arbitration included in a Mass Filing, including fees owed by us, you and other claimants, shall only be due after your demand for arbitration is included in a set of batch proceedings and that batch is properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication; (vi) that the staged process of batched proceedings, with each set including 10 demands, shall continue until each demand (including your demand) is adjudicated or otherwise resolved; and (vii) to make reasonable faith efforts to resolve each batch of demands within 180-days, failing which any party may cease arbitration and file in a court of competent jurisdiction.
  1. Appointment of Arbitrator for Batch Proceedings; Procedural Arbitrators. Arbitrators will be selected in accordance with the applicable AAA Rules. The arbitrator will determine the location for each batch proceeding. The Parties agree to cooperate in good faith with each other and with AAA to implement a “batch approach” to provide for an efficient resolution of claims, including the payment of combined reduced fees, set by AAA at its discretion, for each batch of demands.

The parties shall cooperate with each other and with AAA to establish any other processes or procedures that will provide for an efficient resolution of any claims. If the Parties cannot agree on a batching process, the parties agree that AAA shall appoint a procedural arbitrator. This “Batch Arbitration” provision shall not increase the number of demands necessary to trigger the applicability of AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules or authorize class arbitration of any kind.

The Company does not agree or consent to class arbitration, mass arbitration, private attorney general arbitration, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances. The parties agree that this batching provision is critical to this Arbitration Agreement. If the batching provision is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the Batch Proceedings section shall be null and void, and neither party shall be entitled to arbitrate any claim that is a part of the Mass Filing.

  1. Mediation Following First Batch in a Mass Filing. The results of the first batch of demands will be given to an AAA mediator selected from a group of 5 mediators initially proposed by AAA. PharosIQ and the counsel for the remaining claimants have the right to strike one mediator and then rank the remaining mediators and the highest collectively ranked mediator being selected.

The selected mediator is responsible for attempting to resolve the Dispute in the Mass Filing. The Parties will then have 90 days (the “Mediation Period”) to agree on a resolution or substantive methodology for resolving the outstanding demands. If the parties are unable to resolve the outstanding demands during the Mediation Period and cannot agree on a method of resolving them through further arbitrations, either we or any remaining claimant may opt out of the arbitration process and have the demand(s) proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction. Notice of the opt-out will be provided in writing within 60 days of the close of the Mediation Period. If neither party opts out and they cannot agree on a method for resolving the remaining demands through further arbitration, the arbitrations will continue with the batching process. Absent notice of an opt-out, the arbitrations will proceed in the order determined by the sequential numbers assigned to demands in the Mass Filing.

  1. Opt-Out. If you wish to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, you must provide us with your notice to opt out within 30 days of the first date you visit or use our Website. You must send us a letter stating: “Request to Opt-Out of Agreement to Arbitrate” to:

If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will still apply to you. This opt-out does not apply to the class action waiver.

  • Modification. If we modify this Arbitration Agreement, you may reject that change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of our posting of the change, in which case we will terminate your Account, and you must stop using the Services, your Account, and the User Generated Content.
  • Enforceability. IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS DEEMED INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, NEITHER PARTY MAY USE ARBITRATION TO RESOLVE DISPUTES UNDER THESE TERMS, AND ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH LITIGATION.
  • Applicable Law. The laws of State of Pennsylvania applies to any arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, but the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement.
