Last Updated: July 22, 2020

PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL DOCUMENT CAREFULLY. DribbleTEK, Inc. (together with our affiliates, “DribbleTEK®”, “we”, or “us”) provides an online basketball game community and related products, services, content and features through DribbleTEK® websites, support, (the “DribbleTEK® Site(s)”), phones and tablets connected to DribbleTEK® equipment, and through mobile, desktop, or device applications (including iOS and Android applications (“Apps”)) and DribbleTEK®-controlled social media pages (including but not limited to Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin and Twitter). To make these Terms easier to read, the DribbleTEK® Sites and Apps, along with the DribbleTEK®-controlled social media pages are collectively called the “DribbleTEK® Service” or “the Services”. By registering as a member or by visiting, browsing, or using the DribbleTEK® Service in any way, you (as a “user”) accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”), which forms a binding agreement between you and DribbleTEK®.

PLEASE READ: THESE TERMS CONTAIN A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER (SECTION 20). READ CAREFULLY, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT, IF APPLICABLE, TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION. EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DISPUTES DESCRIBED IN SECTION 20 BELOW, OR WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND DRIBBLETEK® WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-⁠WIDE ARBITRATION.

If you do not wish to be bound by these Terms, you may not access or use the DribbleTEK® Service. Certain elements of the DribbleTEK® Service may be subject to additional terms and conditions specified from time to time; your use of those elements of the DribbleTEK® Service is subject to those additional terms and conditions, which are incorporated into these Terms by this reference.

1. Who May Use the DribbleTEK® Service

We may, in our sole discretion, refuse to offer the DribbleTEK® Service to any person or entity and change the eligibility criteria at any time. You are solely responsible for ensuring that these Terms are in compliance with all laws, rules and regulations applicable to you, and the right to access and use the DribbleTEK® Service is revoked where these Terms or use of the DribbleTEK® Service is prohibited or conflicts with any applicable law, rule or regulation.

This license includes the right to view Content (defined below) available on the DribbleTEK® Service. This license grant is subject to you agreeing to and abiding by the DribbleTEK® Intellectual Property and DMCA Policy, which forms a part of these Terms.

5. Termination; Account Deletion

Term. These Terms begin on the date you first use the DribbleTEK® Service and continue as long as you have an account with us and/or continue to use the DribbleTEK® Service.

Termination. DribbleTEK® may, in DribbleTEK®’s sole discretion, suspend, disable, or delete your account (or any part thereof) or block or remove any User Content (defined below) that you submitted, for any lawful reason, including if DribbleTEK® determines that you have violated these Terms or that your conduct or User Content would tend to damage DribbleTEK®’s reputation or goodwill. If DribbleTEK® deletes your account, you may not re-register for or use the DribbleTEK® Service under any other user name or profile. DribbleTEK® may block your access to the DribbleTEK® Service to prevent re-⁠registration.

In the event of account deletion for any reason, User Content may no longer be available and DribbleTEK® is not responsible for the deletion or loss of such User Content. For clarity, if you cancel your Subscription or it is terminated for any reason, you will lose access to all live and on-demand classes and any other Content or features provided through the DribbleTEK® Service. DribbleTEK®, in its sole discretion, may make available a very limited amount of Content or features to non-subscribers from time to time, and any use of that Content is governed by these Terms.

6. User Content

Content includes, without limitation, User Content.

Any User Content, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted, is the sole responsibility of the person who originated such User Content. You represent that all User Content submitted by or on behalf of you is accurate, complete, up-to-date, and in compliance with these Terms and with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. You acknowledge that all Content, including User Content, accessed by you using the DribbleTEK® Service is at your own risk and you will be solely responsible for any damage or loss to you or any other party resulting therefrom. To the full extent permitted by law, we make no representations, warranties or guarantees with respect to any Content that you access on or through the DribbleTEK® Service.

As between you and DribbleTEK®, you represent that you own (or have all rights necessary to grant DribbleTEK® the rights below to) all User Content that you submit to the DribbleTEK® Service, and that DribbleTEK® will not need to obtain licenses from any third party or pay royalties to any third party in order to use such User Content. You grant DribbleTEK® a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), transferable royalty-free license and right to use, copy, transmit, distribute, publicly perform and display (through all media now known or later created), edit, modify, and make derivative works from your User Content (including, without limitation, translations) for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to you. In addition, you waive any so-called “moral rights” or rights of privacy or publicity in your User Content. You further grant all users of the DribbleTEK® Service permission to view your User Content for their personal, non-commercial purposes. If you make suggestions to DribbleTEK® or through the DribbleTEK® Service about improving or adding new features or products to the DribbleTEK® Service or you otherwise provide feedback, product or service reviews or testimonials, you hereby grant to DribbleTEK® a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), transferable royalty-free license and right to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit your suggestions, feedback, reviews and testimonials for any purpose (including for marketing), without any notice, compensation or other obligation to you.

You can remove your User Content by specifically deleting it. However, in certain instances, some of your User Content (such as posts or comments you make) may not be completely removed and copies of your User Content may continue to exist on the DribbleTEK® Service. We are not responsible or liable for the removal or deletion of (or the failure to remove or delete) any of your User Content.

7. Rights and Terms for Apps

18. ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT & CLASS ACTION WAIVER – IMPORTANT – PLEASE REVIEW AS THIS MAY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. APPLICABLE TO THE FULL EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

  1. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services or Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and DribbleTEK® agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (or equivalent laws in the jurisdiction in which the DribbleTEK® entity that you have contracted with is incorporated) governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms and that you and DribbleTEK® are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.

  2. Exceptions and Opt-out. As limited exceptions to Section 20(a) above: (i) you may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our respective intellectual property rights. In addition, you will retain the right to opt out of arbitration entirely and litigate any Dispute if you provide us with written notice of your desire to do so by regular mail sent to the attention of DribbleTEK®’s Legal Department at the DribbleTEK® address set out in Section 24 below within 30 days following the date you first agree to these Terms.

  3. Initial Dispute Resolution and Notification. You agree that before initiating any Dispute or arbitration proceeding, we will attempt to negotiate an informal resolution of any dispute. To begin this process, before initiating any arbitration proceeding, you must send a Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) by certified mail to the attention of DribbleTEK®’s Legal Department at the DribbleTEK® address set out in Section 24 below. In the Notice, you must describe the nature and basis of the Dispute and the relief you are seeking. If we are unable to resolve the Dispute within 45 days after DribbleTEK®’s receipt of the Notice, then you or DribbleTEK® may initiate arbitration proceedings as set out below.

  4. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. Any arbitration will be conducted by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The JAMS Rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by email: teamdt@dribbletek.com.  A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to JAMS and give notice to the other party as specified in the JAMS Rules. JAMS provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.jamsadr.com. JAMS will appoint an arbitrator that is either (1) a retired federal or state court judge, or (2) an attorney who has been licensed to practice law in the state of Tennessee for at least 10 years. The arbitration will be conducted by an in-person hearing, unless we both agree otherwise. If JAMS fails or declines to conduct the arbitration for any reason, we will mutually select a different arbitration administrator. If we cannot agree, a court will appoint a different arbitration administrator.Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or other municipality) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement. During the arbitration, both you and DribbleTEK® may take one deposition of the opposing party, limited to 4 hours. If we cannot agree on a time and location for a deposition, the arbitrator will resolve any scheduling disputes.

  5. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules. If you assert a claim against DribbleTEK®, you will be responsible for paying a $250 consumer filing fee. DribbleTEK® will pay for all other filing, administration and arbitrator fees and expenses. If your Dispute is for less than U.S. $10,000 (including attorneys’ fees and costs) and the arbitrator, upon final disposition of the case, finds your Dispute was not frivolous, DribbleTEK® will reimburse your initial filing fee. If we prevail in arbitration, we will pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.

  6. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND DRIBBLETEK® AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, neither JAMS nor the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding for any purpose. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 20 shall be null and void.

  7. Effect of Changes on Arbitration. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 25 “Modification”, if DribbleTEK® changes any of the terms of this Section 20 after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or the date of DribbleTEK®’s email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and DribbleTEK® in accordance with the terms of this Section 20 as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

  8. Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 20(e) above, if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
