This Agreement is between Allen Media, LLC, and its affiliated companies (collectively "AMG") and you. The services covered by these Terms of Use ("Services") include AMG's applications, websites, and other Internet-enabled or wireless means by which AMG provides any audiovisual content to you or receives content from you, including, without limitation, software applications (including, without limitation, desktop applications, mobile applications, tablet applications, and applications for digital media player devices), content and blog submission services, chat rooms, message boards, text/SMS messaging, email messaging, alert products, and delivery of AMG content to you at your request.

AMG will use the information you provide in accordance with AMG's Privacy Policy. By registering, you represent and warrant that all information that you choose to provide is current, complete and accurate. You agree to maintain and promptly update such information as necessary, so that it remains current, complete and accurate. If the registration process requires you to create and use log-in credentials such as an email address or user name along with a password, you acknowledge and agree that AMG may rely on the subsequent use of your log-in credentials to provide access to your account and the information you have provided. You are responsible for all use of your account, regardless of whether you authorized such access or use, and for ensuring that all use of your account complies fully with these Terms of Use.

 

You shall be responsible for obtaining and maintaining all devices, wired or wireless communications means, telephone, computer software, computer hardware and other equipment needed for access to and use of the Services and all charges related thereto.

A. You shall use the Services for lawful, non-commercial purposes only and on a non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-transferable basis. You shall not post or transmit through the Services any content which violates or infringes in any way upon the rights of others, which is unlawful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, vulgar, obscene, profane or otherwise objectionable, which encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, gives rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any law.

A. The Services may provide RSS Feeds (“RSS Feeds”) consisting of selected text, audio, video and photographic content from the Services that is provided over the Internet. Certain RSS Feeds may be podcasts (“Podcasts”), which may include an audio, video and/or photographic file where the audio and/or video file may be downloaded and played from your device or (if permitted) transferred to another device. Certain software and hardware may be required for users to download and view and/or play content through RSS Feeds. Content made available via RSS Feeds is subject to all of the provisions of these Terms, even though you may download, copy and/or transfer to a device, or through a device to another device, the RSS Feeds and associated content. By your access to and use of RSS Feeds, you understand, acknowledge and agree that we do not warrant that such RSS Feeds will operate on all devices.

 

B. AMG may offer Services through applications on mobile or other wireless devices including, without limitation, mobile phones and tablets (“Mobile Application Services”). These Terms govern your use of the Services through Mobile Application Services. In addition to these Terms, your carrier may have additional terms and conditions, including but not limited to fees and location limitations, which may apply to your use of the Mobile Application Services. You are solely responsible for any fees assessed by your carrier associated with the use of Mobile Application Services, including but not limited to text message and data fees as further described below.

 

These terms relate specifically to your use of any of AMG's text/SMS message Services. These Services may provide text/SMS messages and alerts.

A. Subscription to the Service. By subscribing to the Services, you represent and warrant that you are in lawful possession of the mobile phone or wireless device to which you are directing messages to be sent. You agree and represent that all registration and contact information provided during the sign-up process, including the mobile phone number registered for the Services, is accurate and current. If any of your registration or contact information or your mobile phone number changes, you agree to update it immediately. You are solely responsible for the use of the Services by you and anyone you allow access to the Services.

Contact your carrier for text messaging rates and terms applicable to your plan. You are solely responsible for any fees or charges incurred from participating in the Services. Under no circumstances will AMG, its third party service providers, agents or affiliates be responsible or liable for any text messaging or wireless service charges incurred by you, any person responsible for charges related to the registered mobile or wireless device, or any person having access to the registered mobile phone or wireless device, or for any overcharge or billing error by or any billing dispute with any mobile or wireless device carrier.

 

E. How to Opt Out. You may opt out of the text/SMS Services at any time by texting the keyword "STOP" in response to a message.

NEITHER AMG, ITS AFFILIATES NOR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, THIRD PARTY CONTENT PROVIDERS OR LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, “COVERED PARTIES”) WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE; NOR DO THEY MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE SERVICES, OR FROM THE INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN, OR AS TO THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS OR RELIABILITY OF ANY INFORMATION, SERVICE OR MERCHANDISE PROVIDED THROUGH THE SERVICES.

All trademarks appearing on the Services are the property of AMG or their respective owners.

 

AMG is not a publisher of content supplied by third parties and users of the Services. Accordingly, AMG has no more editorial control over such content than does a public library, bookstore, or newsstand. Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or content expressed or made available by third parties, including information providers and users, are those of the respective author(s) or distributor(s) and not of AMG. In many instances, the content available through the Services represents the opinions and judgments of the respective information provider or user. AMG neither endorses nor is responsible for the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, advice or statement made on the Services by anyone other than authorized AMG employee spokespersons while acting in their official capacities.

 

AMG also assumes no responsibility, and shall not be liable for, any damages to, or viruses that may infect, your computer equipment or other property on account of your access to, use of, or browsing in the Services or your downloading of any materials, data, text, images, video, or audio from the Services.

AMG does not authorize the downloading or exportation of any software or technical data from the Services to any jurisdiction prohibited by the United States Export Laws.

The Services incorporate links to other Web sites. AMG does not in any way endorse, nor is it responsible for, the content on those other Web sites.

 

You agree that AMG can share your video viewing activities with any service provider acting on our behalf and with advertising partners. Your consent to such sharing is valid for two years or until you withdraw your consent by emailing datarequest@weathergroup.com or submitting the form located here .

AMG has the right at any time to change or modify the terms and conditions applicable to use of the Services, or any part thereof, or to impose new conditions, including, without limitation, adding fees and charges for use. Such changes, modifications, additions or deletions shall be effective (i) immediately upon notice thereof, which may be given by any means including, without limitation, posting on the Services, or by electronic or conventional mail, or by any other means or (ii) where required by law, 30 days after their publication through the Services.

21. Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) WILL BE CONDUCTED THROUGH A BINDING, CONFIDENTIAL, INDIVIDUAL, AND FAIR ARBITRATION PROCESS.

 

A. Neither you nor AMG will seek to have a Dispute (defined below) heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties involved therein. “Dispute” includes any dispute, action, or other controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, between you and AMG concerning the Services or this Agreement, whether in contract, tort, warranty, statute, regulation, or other legal or equitable basis. You and AMG empower an arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of these Terms or the formation of this contract, including the arbitrability of any Dispute and any claim that all or any part of this Agreement are void or voidable.

 

B. In the event of a Dispute, you or AMG must first send by mail to the other a written notice of the Dispute (“Notice”) that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving notice, the specific facts giving rise to the Dispute, the Service(s) to which the Notice relates, and the relief requested. Your Notice to AMG must be sent by mail to the corporate address provided herein. AMG will send any Notice to you at the contact information it has for you or that you provide. It is the sender’s responsibility to ensure that the recipient receives the Notice. You and AMG will attempt to resolve a dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice is sent. After that sixty (60) day period, you or AMG may commence an arbitration proceeding. Alternatively, you litigate the Dispute in small claims court if such Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.

 

C. If you and AMG do not resolve the Dispute by informal negotiation or in small claims court, the Dispute shall be resolved by final, binding arbitration conducted before a single neutral arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures or pursuant to JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”), as modified by this Agreement. YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY. The JAMS Rules and instructions about how to initiate an arbitration are available at www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267.

 

D. This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16).

 

E. In accordance with the JAMS Rules, the party initiating the arbitration (either you or AMG) is responsible for paying the filing fee. Each party shall be responsible for and bear its own costs and attorneys’ fees, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

 

F. You and AMG agree to maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and shall not disclose the fact of the arbitration, any documents exchanged as part of any informal negotiation, proceedings of the arbitration, the arbitrator’s decision, and the existence or amount of any award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration (in which case anyone becoming privy to confidential information must undertake to preserve its confidentiality), or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a provisional remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, an order confirming the award, or unless otherwise required by law or court order.

 

G. This Section 21 shall survive termination of this agreement and/or any subscription to any Services which you may have.

 

If you have questions or concerns about the meaning of any provision of this arbitration agreement, please feel free to seek the counsel of an attorney.

A. If you access or download the Services via an Apple, Inc. (“Apple”), Amazon.com, Inc., Google, Inc., Microsoft Corporation, Samsung Electronics America, Inc. (“Samsung”), LG Electronics, Inc. (“LG”) or any other third party app store or platform (each a “Third Party Platform Provider”), such Third Party Platform Providers shall be third-party beneficiaries to these Terms. However, these Third Party Platform Providers are not party to these Terms and have no obligation to provide maintenance and/or support of the Services. AMG, not such Third Party Platform Providers, is solely responsible for the Services. Your access to the Services using the Third Party Platform Providers’ app stores or platforms are subject to the usage terms set forth in the applicable Third Party Platform Provider’s terms of service.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous written or oral agreements between the parties with respect to such subject matter. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia without regard to its conflicts of law principles. No waiver by AMG of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal import.

 

AMG finds certain content and gets permission from owners to use it in various audiovisual media, including, without limitation, digital and television programming and podcasts. We need a license from the owner to use the audiovisual and/or other content that we specified in correspondence to you, in our programming and/or other media.

This page outlines the terms of the license you are granting to us. Your approval, whether communicated by email or otherwise, acknowledges that you are licensing the Content to us, subject to the terms outlined below.

By accepting this license you agree that:

1) You grant to us and our affiliated companies, a license that is: -perpetual (meaning that it never expires); - non-exclusive (meaning that you are free to license the content to anyone else); -irrevocable (meaning that, once granted, your permission cannot be withdrawn); - royalty-free (meaning that we do not pay you for the content); - sub-licensable (meaning that we can license the content to third parties, provided that we will not do so on an a la carte, standalone basis); - transferable (meaning that we can transfer these rights to third parties); and - worldwide; which license permits us to use, reproduce, edit, reformat, publicly perform, distribute, display, prepare derivative works from, and exploit the content (in whole or in part), and/or to incorporate it in other works, in any media now known or hereafter created.

2) You represent and warrant that you are the sole owner of the content, or that you have all necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to grant us this license to the content. You also represent and warrant that no additional third party permissions (including, without limitation, permissions by persons depicted in the content) are required for AMG's use of the content as described above.

3) In exchange for granting these rights, you have received from AMG good, valuable, and sufficient consideration, including your desire to participate in our programming as well as any credit in our programming that may be granted to you in our sole and absolute discretion.

Other than the rights granted to AMG herein, as between you and AMG, you retain all rights in and to the content.
