Repeat Infringer Policy

In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable law, ImgBot has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at ImgBot’s sole discretion, subscribers or account holders who are deemed to be repeat infringers. ImgBot may also at its sole discretion limit access to the Services and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

If you are a copyright owner, or are authorized to act on behalf of one, or authorized to act under any exclusive right under copyright, please report alleged copyright infringements taking place on or through ImgBot Services by completing the following DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to ImgBot. You should note that if you knowingly misrepresent in your notification that the material or activity is infringing, you will be liable for any damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by us or the alleged infringer as the result of our relying upon such misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be infringing.

Upon receipt of the Notice as described below, ImgBot will take whatever action, in its sole discretion, it deems appropriate, including removal of the challenged material from ImgBot Services.

DMCA Notice of Alleged Infringement (“Notice”):

If you believe a copyright notice was submitted in error regarding your content, or if you contest the removal of allegedly infringing content, you may submit a counter-notice to ImgBot setting forth your good faith belief that such content was removed in error. In accordance with Sections 512(g)(2) and (3) of the DMCA, such counter-notice must set forth: (a) your full legal name, mailing address, telephone number and electronic or physical signature; (b) identification of the disputed material and its location on the Site or in the Services before removal; (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification; and (d) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court where your address is located if your address is located in the U.S. or of the [Insert applicable Federal District Court] if you are located outside the U.S., and that you will accept service process from the person who provided the original complaint.

Dispute Resolution

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH IMGBOT AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

You and ImgBot agree to arbitrate any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Services, except that you and ImgBot are NOT required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable and other relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents. ARBITRATION PREVENTS YOU FROM SUING IN COURT OR FROM HAVING A JURY TRIAL.

You and ImgBot agree (a) to attempt informal resolution prior to any demand for arbitration; (b) that any arbitration will occur in King County, Washington; (c) that arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of JAMS; and (d) that the state or federal courts in King County, Washington have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals of an arbitration award and over any suit between the parties not subject to arbitration. Other than class procedures and remedies discussed below, the arbitrator has the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court. Any dispute between the parties will be governed by this Agreement and the laws of the State of Washington and applicable United States law, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. Whether the dispute is heard in arbitration or in court, you and ImgBot will not commence against the other a class action, class arbitration or other representative action or proceeding.

You can choose to reject this Agreement to Arbitrate (“opt-out”) by mailing us a written opt-out notice (“Opt-Out Notice”) through email at help@imgbot.net within 30 after the date you accept these Terms for the first time. The Opt-Out Notice must state that you do not agree to this Agreement to Arbitrate and must include your name, address, phone number and the GitHub username used to log into your account. You must sign the Opt-Out Notice for it to be effective. This procedure is the only way you can opt-out of the Agreement to Arbitrate. If you opt-out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply.

Notwithstanding any of these Terms, ImgBot reserves the right, without notice and in its sole discretion, to terminate your license to use the Services and to block or prevent future your access to and use of the Services.

If any provision of these Terms is be deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
