Email: [email protected]
Mailing Address:? Viki, Inc. 160 Spear Street Suite 400, San Francisco, CA 94105

To be effective, the notification must be in writing and contain the following information: (i) an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive copyright interest; (ii) a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; (iii) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Service that is reasonably sufficient to enable us to identify and locate the material (e.g., the URL of the allegedly infringing material); (iv) how we can contact you, such as your address, telephone number, and email address; (v) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (vi) a statement by you that the above information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner or the owner of an exclusive right in the material.

We have a policy of terminating repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

(e) ARBITRATION NOTICE:? EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DISPUTES DESCRIBED IN THE ARBITRATION SECTION BELOW, YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.

Except for disputes relating to the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property (including but not limited to trademarks, trade dress, copyrights, patents and trade secrets) or disputes in which we are seeking an injunction (“Excluded Disputes”), you agree that all disputes between you and us (whether or not such dispute involves a third party) with regard to your relationship with us, including without limitation disputes related to these Terms of Use or your use of the Service, will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes and you and we hereby expressly waive trial by jury. Neither you nor we will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any claims covered by this agreement. At your election, desktop or telephone arbitration, if available, can be used for claims of less than $10,000. Rather than force everyone to visit us in San Francisco, if you can demonstrate that arbitration in San Francisco would create an undue burden to you, you are free to initiate the arbitration in your home city. Otherwise, the arbitration hearings will be held in the City and County of San Francisco, California.? As an alternative, you may bring your claim in your local “small claims” court, if permitted by that small claims court’s rules. You may bring claims only on your own behalf.

This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either we or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with these Terms of Use. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act. You understand and agree that all aspects of the arbitration proceeding and the award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary or permanent injunction, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision, shall be confidential. You understand and agree that any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award punitive or exemplary damages, except where permitted by statute, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.? If any portion of this section is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, for any reason, that portion shall be severed from the rest and shall not affect the agreement to resolve all controversies and claims through arbitration.

Since we always prefer to find ways to satisfy you as quickly and efficiently as possible, before initiating any arbitration proceeding, you agree to first discuss the matter informally with us for at least 30 days. To do that, please send your full name and contact information, your concern and your proposed solution by mail to us at: Viki, Inc. 160 Spear Street Suite 400, San Francisco, CA 94105?Attn: Dispute Resolution.

(F) Governing Law.? These Terms of Use are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. In the event of an Excluded Dispute, you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in Santa Clara County of the State of California.

(g) Entire Agreement.? These Terms of Use together with the rules and policies of Viki Inc. herein by reference constitute the entire agreement between us and you with respect to the subject matter of these Terms of Use.

If you have questions about these Terms of Use or would like to request a copy of these Terms of Use or your use of the Services, please contact Viki at? [email protected] .
