Third Party Sites and Third Party Content
- Third Party Sites. As a convenience to users, the Sites may contain links to websites or applications operated by third parties ("Third-Party Sites"). Third-Party Sites are not under the control of Project Cyber, and, as such, access to and use of such Third-Party Sites is at User’s own risk and subject to corresponding third-party, and not Project Cyber’s, terms of use and privacy policies, including with respect to any Third Party Content (as defined below). We take no responsibility and assume no liability for (i) your use of any content or information on any Third-Party Sites; or (ii) any third parties’ access or use of any content or information that you submitted to the Third-Party Sites. You are responsible for verifying all of the content and information available on Third-Party Sites before relying on it. The fact that we provide a link to a Third-Party Site does not necessarily mean that we endorse, authorize, or sponsor that Third-Party Site, nor that we are affiliated with the Third-Party Site. If you visit or use any social media platforms (either through a link on a Site or otherwise), such as Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter, the information you post, transmit, or otherwise make available on those platforms may be viewed by the general public.

If User is a California resident, User waives California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.” If User is a resident of another jurisdiction, User waives any comparable statute or doctrine.

THE PROJECT CYBER PARTIES MAKE NO WARRANTIES (EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO THE SITES AND CONTENT, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF ANY COURSE OF DEALING, PERFORMANCE, OR TRADE USAGE.

NEITHER PROJECT CYBER NOR ITS PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, OWNERS, SHAREHOLERS, SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS (THE “PROJECT CYBER PARTIES”) WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, OR DATA OR OTHER LOSSES (EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES) IN CONNECTION WITH ANY USE OF OR RELIANCE ON CONTENT, MATERIALS, OR LINKS (INCLUDING THIRD PARTY LINKS) MADE AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SITES. IN ANY CASE, OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THESE TERMS SHALL BE LIMITED TO $100.

In such cases, the Project Cyber Parties’ liability will be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Governing Law and Dispute Resolution. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflicts of laws principles. IF ANY CONTROVERSY OR CLAIM BETWEEN USER AND PROJECT CYBER ARISES OUT OF USER’S USE OF THE SITES OR THESE TERMS THAT CANNOT BE RESOLVED THROUGH DIRECT DISCUSSIONS, THE DISPUTE SHALL BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION BEFORE A SINGLE NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS CONSUMER ARBITRATION RULES OR SUBSEQUENT VERSIONS THEREOF (“AAA RULES,” AVAILABLE AT WWW.ADR.ORG) OR, IF THE CLAIMS QUALIFY, IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT. IN ARBITRATION THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD MAY BE LIMITED. HOWEVER, AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THE SAME DAMAGES AND RELIEF AS A COURT. TO BEGIN AN ARBITRATION PROCEEDING, THE PARTY BRINGING A CLAIM MUST SEND A LETTER TO THE OTHER PARTY REQUESTING ARBITRATION THAT DESCRIBES THE CLAIM. WE WILL SEND THE LETTER TO THE ADDRESS USER HAVE PROVIDED US. USER MUST SEND THE LETTER TO US AT: PO BOX 252392, LOS ANGELES, CA 90025, ATTENTION: CORA QUON, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR. THE AAA RULES FOR SELECTION OF AN ARBITRATOR SHALL BE FOLLOWED, EXCEPT THAT THE ARBITRATOR SHALL BE EXPERIENCED AND LICENSED TO PRACTICE LAW IN CALIFORNIA. USER MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE THE ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BY TELEPHONE, BASED ON WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS OR AT ANOTHER MUTUALLY AGREED LOCATION. WE EACH AGREE THAT THE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS FOR ASSERTING ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF USE OF THE SITE OR THESE TERMS SHALL BE A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR FROM USER’S LAST USE OF THE SITES. WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS AND CAUSES OF ACTIONS ARISING OUT OF OR CONNECTED WITH THESE TERMS OR THE SITE SHALL BE RESOLVED INDIVIDUALLY, WITHOUT RESORT TO ANY FORM OF CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO THE JURISDICTION OF AND VENUE IN ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION LOCATED IN LOS ANGELES COUNTY, CALIFORNIA, AND WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT, EITHER OF US MAY BRING SUIT IN COURT TO ENJOIN INFRINGEMENT OR OTHER MISUSE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
