We offer a multi-player online game service to registered users, along with other interactive features, including but not limited to chat, forum, your user profile, and the ability to purchase any licenses, merchandise, or services offered by us. In order to access any interactive features of the Online Services, you need to register a User Account. When you purchase any Game Edition License or Perks License through the Online Services store, Rival Rebels will generate an authorization code and automatically assign it to your User Account in order to enable access. For more details, you can review the User Account registration policy in Section 7 below. Please be aware and acknowledge that any software available through the Online Services is licensed, not sold to you.
b. Funder Editions
If you wish to participate in the Alpha/Beta early funding program (also known as early access, alpha-access, paid-alpha or beta), a License to access certain unfinished Content and unfinished features of the Game, including but not limited to pre-release versions, scenes, patches and services (collectively, “Funder Editions”), may be available for sale through the Online Services. Your purchase of any Funder Editions License and your voluntary participation will typically help us debug the game, provide us with feedback, and reward you with early access to special Content, while providing essential funding to the development of the Game. Accordingly, you acknowledge and agree that the Funder Editions unfinished features are experimental, have not been fully tested, may still have errors, may have interrupted access, and may not meet your requirements. Furthermore, please be aware and acknowledge that no in-game progress, such as gaining abilities, skills, credits, ranks, status indicators, or reputation, will be made in the Funder’s Test Areas, or (if any progress is made), they may be reset back to the original levels before accessing the Funders’ Test Areas. Under our sole discretion we reserve the right to change, modify, alter, or eliminate, features, Perks or certain elements or Content, from the Funder Editions and from Funder’s Test Areas or revoke access to all or certain users (including you) to all or certain features, elements or Content from the Funder’s Test Area.

Please be aware and acknowledge that to enable Perks your User Account must be already associated with a Game License. You acknowledge and agree that certain Perks will be bound to your User Account and can’t be traded, bartered, transferred or sold to other players. Furthermore, other Perks are consumable and may be spent, sold, reacquired, salvaged or lost by players, including you, during the course of gameplay. Consequently, Perks are forfeit of purchase refunds due to the personal or consumable nature of such digital items. For more details, you can review our Perks Returns Policy in Section 10.e.2 below.
d. Coupons
We may offer certain promo codes or promotional coupons that may be redeemed at your shopping cart’s “apply coupon” form, for a financial discount or rebate when purchasing a product (“Coupon”). In that case, Rival Rebels may accept and honor Coupons that: (i) we provided to you on our Website; (ii) we provided to you through email communication; (iii) you acquired only from third parties that are listed on our Website as “Authorized Promoters” regarding sweepstakes or promotional campaigns; (iv) you received from participant members of our Referral Program. In all cases, we reserve the right to deny or revoke any invalid Coupon or already redeemed Coupon obtained through a promotion or by any other means in the event that we determine or believe that the Coupon code was obtained because of an error, through fraud, illegally, or in violation of the EULA, the TOS, or other applicable terms. To learn more about our Orders and Payments practices, please review Section 10 found below and in the TOS.
e. Referral Program Coupons
We may offer promotions to certain users at our sole discretion. These promotions, unless made available to you in your User Account, will have no bearing whatsoever on your compliance with the EULA, the TOS or relationship with us. In that case, if you wish to participate, you may get a reward in the form of referral points (“R-Points”) for every new customer that submits your User Account’s unique “Referral Coupons” while purchasing a Game License (“Referral Program”). The intent of this program is to reward and incentivize word-of-mouth promotion of the Game. Your voluntary participation in the Referral Program may give you the opportunity to earn enough R-Points to obtain a Game License, or if you already own one, to upgrade your edition, or to obtain certain Perks. You’re encouraged to share your Referral Coupons with friends and family and through social media outlets. However, you hereby acknowledge and agree that you will not under any circumstances: (i) engage in spamming tactics using your or any Referral Coupons in any social media (all forms of spamming are strictly forbidden); (ii) include Rival Rebels’ trademarks, without permission; (iii) engage in activity that may be regarded as misleading to Rival Rebels’ customers; (iv) try to redeem or redeem your User Account’s unique Referral Coupons on your own User Account; (v) try to sell or sell, trade, or barter your User Account’s unique Referral Coupons.

Your participation in the Referral Program must be approved at our sole discretion and is subject to the Termination Policy in instances we identify behavior we believe to be abusive, fraudulent, or not aligned with the spirit of the program, such as: (1) attempts to gain R-Points through self-referral by opening multiple accounts using different email addresses or by adding identical payment methods to multiple accounts; (2) attempts to gain R-Points by referring customers through paid advertising, sponsored links, posting to commercial sites, or spamming; (3) attempts to gain R-Points by purchasing and returning licenses, or any type of store return fraud scheme. We reserve the right to review, deny or revoke any gained R-Points, redeemed Game License or Perks License obtained through a promotion or any other means in the event that we determine or believe that any R-Points and/or License were obtained because of an error, through fraud, illegally, or in violation of the EULA, the TOS or other applicable terms. We reserve the right to suspend our referral program at any time. If we disassociate your Referral Coupons from your User Account, you will not receive R-Points for new people completing their first purchases using the Referral Coupons with us anymore.

16. Dispute Resolution & Arbitration
a. Introduction
Please read the following section carefully because it affects your rights and it requires you to submit to binding arbitration (and jury trial waiver) of any and all Disputes (other than specified DMCA claims and small claims) with Rival Rebels and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us. No class arbitrations, class actions, or representative actions are allowed under this Agreement, and the TOS. If you are a European Union resident or using the Software and/or the Online Services within the EEA, some or all parts of this Section 16 do not apply to you and the provisions of this Agreement will not operate to, in any way, limit or otherwise restrict the rights vested with the consumers, including conflict of laws provisions, upon relevant provisions of applicable law nor may be construed by anyone in this way. Such laws will affect this Agreement only to the extent required by such jurisdiction. If such laws apply, the terms and conditions of this Agreement will remain in full force and maximum effect.
b. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
For All Customers Outside the EEA: You agree that: (i) the Software must be deemed solely based in California; and (ii) the Software must be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Rival Rebels, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than California. The Agreement, and the TOS must be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Any claim or dispute between you and Rival Rebels that arises in whole or in part from the Agreement must be decided exclusively by a court of competent jurisdiction located in Los Angeles County, California, unless submitted to arbitration as set forth in this Section 16.
c. Dispute
For any dispute you have with Rival Rebels, you agree to first contact us at legal@rivalrebels.com and try to resolve the dispute with us directly through consultation and good faith negotiations. If we need to contact you, we will do so at the email address on your User Account. If Rival Rebels hasn’t been able to resolve the dispute with you informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to the Agreement, and the TOS through binding arbitration or (for qualifying claims) in small claims court.
d. Binding Arbitration
Instead of suing in court, you and we agree to settle all disputes (except certain small claims) only by arbitration. The rules in arbitration are different. There is no judge or jury, and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief, and must honor the same limitations stated in the agreement as a court would. You agree that, in the event any dispute or claim arises out of or relates to the Agreement, and the TOS, or the breach thereof, you and Rival Rebels will attempt in good faith to negotiate a written resolution of the matter directly. In that case, you must contact us at legal@rivalrebels.com, with a written Notice of Dispute that includes your name, residence address, username and the email address you use for your User Account, a detailed description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. The language must be in English and the proceedings must be considered confidential in nature (including but not limited to any and all information gathered, prepared, and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the Dispute(s) therein), and in accordance with the commercial mediation rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq, and not to sue in court in front of a judge or jury. Instead, a neutral arbitrator will decide. However, to avoid expensive fees and charges, AAA will not administer the arbitration, even if the AAA’s rules would otherwise permit such a proceeding to be brought. To the extent permitted by law you agree that if the matter remains unresolved for sixty (60) days after notification (via certified mail or personal delivery) it will be deemed a “dispute,” and then all parties must join in mediation services in Los Angeles, California, USA, with a mutually agreed mediator in any attempt to resolve the dispute. If you file any arbitration claims, or any administrative or legal actions without first having attempted to resolve the matter by mediation, then you agree that you will not be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees, even if you may have been entitled to them otherwise. THEREFORE, AS ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND RIVAL REBELS AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE, OR CONTROVERSY, INCLUDING ALL STATUTORY CLAIMS AND ANY STATE OR FEDERAL CLAIMS, THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF THE AGREEMENT, AND THE TOS OF USE OR THE ONLINE SERVICES (INCLUDING SOFTWARE). BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THEY ARE WAIVING THEIR RIGHTS TO MAINTAIN OTHER AVAILABLE RESOLUTION PROCESSES, SUCH AS A COURT ACTION OR ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEEDING, TO SETTLE THEIR DISPUTES. THIS BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT APPLIES TO ALL USERS EXCEPT USERS LOCATED OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES AND ITS TERRITORIES. IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A JURISDICTION THAT REQUIRES A SPECIFIC STATEMENT REGARDING RELEASE THEN THE FOLLOWING APPLIES. THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY DESCRIBED ABOVE MUST APPLY FULLY TO RESIDENTS OF NEW JERSEY. IF ANY PORTION OF THIS SECTION 16 IS HELD TO BE INVALID UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY, THE INVALIDITY OF SUCH PORTION MUST NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THE APPLICABLE SECTIONS. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542 IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING, WHICH STATES: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.”

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.

17. Waiver & Severability
IF RIVAL REBELS DOES NOT EXERCISE OR ENFORCE ANY PARTICULAR RIGHT OR PROVISION OF THE AGREEMENT AND/OR THE TOS, RIVAL REBELS DOES NOT WAIVE THAT RIGHT OR PROVISION. IF A COURT FINDS ANY PROVISION OF THE AGREEMENT AND/OR THE TOS INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, THEN AS ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND WE AGREE THAT THE COURT SHOULD TRY TO FOLLOW THE INTENTION OF THAT PROVISION AND THAT ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT AND/OR THE TOS WILL REMAIN IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT. THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY DESCRIBED ABOVE MUST APPLY FULLY TO RESIDENTS OF NEW JERSEY.
