California residents, you expressly waive CA Civil Code §1542, which states: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.”

Limitations on Liability

The providers whose products and services are available on the website are independent contractors and not agents or employees of TheatreArtLife.TheatreArtLife is not liable for the acts, errors, omissions, representations, warranties, breaches or negligence of any such providers or for any personal injuries, death, property damage or other damage or expenses resulting, directly or indirectly, from such products and/or services.

Except for a breach of these terms of use by you (such as, for example, a commercial use of the website in violation of these terms of use), a violation of intellectual property rights or indemnification obligations or with respect to products or services that we provide to a specific consumer for a fee which shall be governed by its own contractual terms, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall you orTheatreArtLife and/or its affiliates, licensors, licensees, successors or assigns be liable for any direct, indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, or any damages whatsoever, including, without limitation, damages for loss of use, data, goodwill or profits, arising out of or in any way connected with the use or performance of the website, the delay or inability to use the website, the provision of or failure to provide services and/or functionality of the website, or for any content, products or services obtained or purchased through the website, or otherwise arising out of the use of the website, whether based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability or otherwise, even if TheatreArtLife and/or any of its affiliates, licensors, licensees, successors or assigns has been advised of the possibility of such damages. In states and jurisdictions in which limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages are prohibited, such limitations shall apply to the fullest extent permitted. If you are dissatisfied with any portion of the website or with any of these terms of use, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue using the website. Except for a breach of these terms of use by you (such as, for example, a commercial use of the website in violation of these terms of use), violation of intellectual property rights or indemnification obligations or with respect to products or services that we provide to a specific consumer for a fee which shall be governed by its own contractual terms, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall your or our total liability for all damages, losses or causes of action, whether in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise exceed the amount paid by you to us, if any, for accessing or participating in any activity related to use of the website or $50 (whichever is less).

Under no circumstances willTheatreArtLife and/or any of its affiliates, licensors, licensees, successors or assigns be responsible for any damage, loss or injury resulting from hacking, tampering or other unauthorized access or use of the website, your data or your account or the information contained therein. We reserve the right at all times to disclose any information that we deem necessary to comply with any applicable law, rule, regulation, legal process or governmental request.

If you access the website from a location outside of the united states, you are solely responsible for compliance with all local and other applicable laws.

Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms of Use and any dispute that may arise between you and TheatreArtLife shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the United States Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law and the laws of Hong Kong without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.

Disputes arising from these terms of use and your use of the website shall be resolved by binding arbitration as provided below. By agreeing to binding arbitration, you are hereby waiving the right to bring disputes to a court, including the right to trial by jury. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. Any cause of action you may have with respect to your use of the website must be commenced within one year after the claim or cause of action arises.

Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

In the event of any dispute between you and us regarding these Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, the Website and/or any products or services purchased from the Website, you and TheatreArtLife agree to first send the other party a notice of dispute, which is a written statement setting forth the name, address and contact information of the party giving the notice, the facts giving rise to the dispute and the relief requested. You must send any notice of dispute by e-mail to help@TheatreArtLife.com with an email subject of “Dispute”. We will send any notice of dispute to you at the contact information we have for you. You and TheatreArtLife will attempt to resolve any dispute through informal negotiation within 30 days from the date that the notice of dispute is sent. If we are unable to resolve a dispute by negotiation, you agree that disputes must be resolved through binding arbitration rather than by a court, provided that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to these Terms of Use. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited. It is important that you understand that the arbitrator’s decision will be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to us at legal@TheatreArtLife.com with “Arbitration Request” in the subject line. You may also contact us by mail at:

TheatreArtLife Ltd., 25th Floor, Workington Tower, 78 Bonham Strand, Sheung Wan, Hong Kong, Hong Kong

The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Likewise, we will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed on location.

You agree to arbitrate with TheatreArtLife only in your individual capacity and not as a representative or member of a class or in any consolidated or representative proceeding. As such, your claims may not be joined with any other claims and there shall be no authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or brought by a purported class representative. No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to the arbitration or proceeding. If the class action waiver is found illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration. For certain claims, like violations of these Terms of Use or breaches of intellectual property covenants, we reserve the right to seek injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction. All arbitrations shall be initiated in Hong Kong.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver by TheatreArtLife of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition and any failure of TheatreArtLife to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of these Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Assignment

These Terms of Use and any rights and licenses granted hereunder may not be transferred or assigned by you. We may assign our rights under these Terms of Use without restriction.

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy and the other agreements referred to herein constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and TheatreArtLife with respect to the Website and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to the Website.
