      If you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of this Agreement, if we are required to do so by law (e.g., where the provision of any of the Services is, or becomes, unlawful), or if we choose to discontinue the Services (in whole or in part), we have the right to, immediately and without notice, suspend or terminate any the Services provided to you. If we become aware of any possible violations by you of this Agreement, we reserve the right to investigate such violations.

  10. International Users.

    The Services can be accessed from countries around the world and may contain references to Services and Content that are not available in your country. These references do not imply that YOL intends to announce such Services or Content in your country. The Services are controlled and offered by YOL from its facilities in the United States of America. YOL makes no representations that the Services are appropriate or available for use in other locations. Those who access or use the Services from other countries do so at their own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law.

  11. Dispute Resolution.

    If you have any questions, complaints or claims with respect to the Services, please contact us first at YOL LLC, 518 Tamalpais Drive, Mill Valley, CA 94941 Attn: Legal, or [email protected] and we’ll do our best to address your concerns.

    THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION 11 APPLY TO ANY USERS OF THE SERVICES, WHETHER AUTHORIZED OR UNAUTHORIZED. PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

    (a) Any and all disputes between you and us and our employees, agents, successors, or assigns, regarding or relating to the Services or this Agreement shall exclusively be settled through binding and confidential arbitration.

    (b) Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or JAMS. As modified by this Agreement, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s or JAMS’s rules for commercial arbitration and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the procedures for consumer-related disputes.

    (c) You are giving up your right to go to court to assert or defend your rights except for matters that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator and not a judge or jury.

    (d) You and we must abide by the following rules: (i) any claims brought by you or us must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding; (ii) the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding, and may not award class-wide relief; (iii) in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, we will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (iv) we also reserve the right in our sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all of the costs of the arbitration; (v) the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law; (vi) the arbitrator’s award shall be final and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction; (vii) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (viii) each side pays its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees’ and litigation expenses, and then in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.

    (e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or we may bring an individual action in small claims court. Further, claims of infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret shall not be subject to this arbitration agreement. Such claims shall be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, CA. Additionally, notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, CA in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and hereby agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within San Francisco, CA for such purpose. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.

    (f) With the exception of Sections 11(d)(i) and 11(d)(ii) (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with this Agreement, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, either Section 11(d)(i) or 11(d)(ii) (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be void, and neither you nor we shall be entitled to arbitration. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought in state or federal court in San Francisco, CA.

    (g) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, if we seek to terminate the Dispute Resolution section as included in this Agreement, any such termination shall not be effective until thirty (30) days after the version of this Agreement not containing the agreement to arbitrate is posted to the Services, and shall not be effective as to any claim of which you provided YOL with written notice prior to the date of termination.

    (h) For more information on AAA, its Rules and Procedures, and how to file an arbitration claim, you may call AAA at 800-778-7879 or visit the AAA website at http://www.adr.org. For more information on JAMS, it’s Rules and Procedures, and how to file an arbitration claim, you may call JAMS at 800-352-5267 or visit the JAMS website at http://www.jamsadr.com.

    (i) Any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action between you and YOL and our employees, agents, successors, or assigns, regarding or relating to this Agreement or the Services shall exclusively be governed by the internal laws of the State of California, without regard to its choice of law rules and without regard to conflicts of laws principles except that the arbitration provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to this Agreement.

  12. General Provisions.
    1. Electronic Communications

      The communications between you and YOL use electronic means, whether you visit the Services or send YOL e-mails, or whether YOL posts notices on the Services or communicates with you via e-mail. For contractual purposes, you (1) consent to receive communications from YOL in an electronic form; and (2) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that YOL provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were to be in writing. The foregoing does not affect your statutory rights.

    2. Release

      You hereby release YOL Parties and their successors from claims, demands, any and all losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death, and property damage, that is either directly or indirectly related to or arises from your use of the Services, including but not limited to, any interactions with or conduct of other Users or third-party websites of any kind arising in connection with or as a result of this Agreement or your use of the Services. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states, “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.” The foregoing release does not apply to any claims, demands, or any losses, damages, rights and actions of any kind, including personal injuries, death or property damage for any unconscionable commercial practice by a YOL Party or for such party’s fraud, deception, false, promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Sites or any Services provided hereunder.

    3. Assignment

      This Agreement, and your rights and obligations hereunder, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated or otherwise transferred by you without YOL’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void. YOL may freely assign this Agreement, and subcontract, delegate or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations hereunder, without your consent.

    4. Force Majeure

      YOL shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargos, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, strikes or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.

    5. Notice

      Where YOL requires that you provide an e-mail address, you are responsible for providing YOL with your most current e-mail address. In the event that the last e-mail address you provided to YOL is not valid, or for any reason is not capable of delivering to you any notices required/permitted by this Agreement, YOL’s dispatch of the e-mail containing such notice will nonetheless constitute effective notice. You may give notice to YOL at the following email: [email protected]. Such notice shall be deemed given when received by YOL by letter delivered by nationally recognized overnight delivery service or first class postage prepaid mail at the above address.

    6. Waiver

      Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion.

    7. Severability

      If any portion of this Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intention of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect.

    8. Export Control

      You may not use, export, import, or transfer the Services except as authorized by U.S. law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which you obtained the Services, and any other applicable laws. In particular, but without limitation, the Services may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any United States embargoed countries, or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Denied Person’s List or Entity List.

    10. Entire Agreement

      This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

Part II

In addition to all provisions of Part I of this Agreement, the provisions of Part II of this Agreement shall apply to Users that upload, post, e-mail, transmit, or otherwise make Content available through the Services.

  1. Responsibility for Content.
    1. Types of Content

      You acknowledge that all information (including payment information), data, pictures, or other content (“Content”) on the Services is the sole responsibility of the party from whom such Content originated. This means that you, and not YOL, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, e-mail, transmit or otherwise make available through the Services (“Your Content”), and that other Users of the Services, and not YOL, are similarly responsible for all Content they make available through the Services (together with Your Content, “User Content”). Under no circumstances will YOL be liable in any way for any Content of any third parties (including Users), including, but not limited to, for any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any such Content.

    2. No Obligation to Pre-Screen Content

      You acknowledge that YOL has no obligation to pre-screen Content (including, but not limited to, User Content), although YOL reserves the right in its sole discretion to pre-screen, refuse or remove any Content. By entering into this Agreement, you hereby consent and agree that you will never revoke such consent to such monitoring. You acknowledge and agree that you have no expectation of privacy concerning the transmission of Your Content. In the event that YOL pre-screens, refuses or removes any Content, you acknowledge that YOL will do so for YOL’s benefit, not yours. Without limiting the foregoing, YOL shall have the right to remove any Content that violates this Agreement or is otherwise objectionable. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with, the use of any Content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of such Content.

    3. Ownership of Your Content

      YOL does not claim ownership of Your Content. You are solely responsible for all Your Content and you represent, warrant and covenant that Your Content will not (a) infringe or misappropriate any intellectual property or other rights of a third party, (b) contain software viruses or similar computer code, or (c) be unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, obscene or otherwise objectionable. Except with respect to Your Content, you agree that you have no right or title in or to any Content that appears on or in the Services.

    4. License to Your Content

      While you retain ownership of Your Content, you acknowledge that we need to use Your Content in connection with providing the Services and otherwise in connection with our business operations, including books and other ancillary YOL products. You hereby grant to YOL and its affiliates a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicenseable license to copy, distribute, display, modify and otherwise use Your Content in connection with providing the Services and otherwise in connection with our business operations.

      Types of Content — To make it more clear, we can add the line below:You acknowledge that all information (including payment information), data, pictures, or other content (“Content”) on the Services, including any other form of content provided to YOL, such as content procured through interviews for stories, podcasts, webinars, etc., is the sole responsibility of the party from whom such Content originated. This means that you, and not YOL, are entirely responsible for all Content that you upload, post, e-mail, transmit or otherwise make available through the Services (“Your Content”), and that other Users of the Services, and not YOL, are similarly responsible for all Content they make available through the Services (together with Your Content, “User Content”). Under no circumstances will YOL be liable in any way for any Content of any third parties (including Users), including, but not limited to, for any errors or omissions in any Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any such Content.

    5. Backing up User Content

      We are not obligated to backup User Content, and Your Content may be deleted at any time without prior notice – accordingly we recommend you store and backup copies elsewhere.

    6. Do not send us confidential information in Your Content.

      Please note that User Content will not be treated as confidential information – accordingly, you agree not to submit to us any information or ideas that you consider to be confidential or proprietary. You acknowledge that your communications with other Users via the Services are public and not private communications, and that you have no expectation of privacy in respect of such communications.

      Without limiting the foregoing, you acknowledge and agree that we may preserve content and may also disclose content if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (a) comply with legal process, applicable laws or government requests; (b) enforce this Agreement; (c) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; or (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of YOL, its Users and the public. You understand that the technical processing and transmission of the Services, including Your Content, may involve (i) transmissions over various networks; and (ii) changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.

    9. Copyright Complaints

      YOL respects the intellectual property of others, and we ask our Users to do the same. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, you should notify YOL of your infringement claim in accordance with the procedure set forth below.

      YOL will process and investigate notices of alleged infringement and will take appropriate actions under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) and other applicable intellectual property laws with respect to any alleged or actual infringement. A notification of claimed copyright infringement should be emailed to YOL’s Copyright Agent at [email protected] (Subject line: “DMCA Takedown Request”). You may also contact us at:

      YOL LLC, 518 Tamalpais, Drive, Mill Valley, CA 94941 Attn: CEO
      or by e-mail at: [email protected]
      or by phone at (415) 480-4676.

      To be effective, the notification must be in writing and contain the following information:

      • an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright or other intellectual property interest;
      • a description of the copyrighted work or other intellectual property that you claim has been infringed;
      • a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Services, with enough detail that we may find it on the Services;
      • your address, telephone number, and email address;
      • a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright or intellectual property owner, its agent, or the law;
      • a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your Notice is accurate and that you are the copyright or intellectual property owner or authorized to act on the copyright or intellectual property owner’s behalf.

      Counter-Notice: If you believe that Your Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, to upload and use the content in Your Content, you may send a written counter-notice containing the following information to the Copyright Agent:

      • your physical or electronic signature;
      • identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled; a statement that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the content; and
      • your name, address, telephone number, and email address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court located in San Francisco, CA and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.
      • If a counter-notice is received by the Copyright Agent, YOL will send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that it may replace the removed content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the content provider, member or user, the removed content may be replaced, or access to it restored, in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our sole discretion.

      Repeat Infringer Policy: In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, YOL has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, Users who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also at our sole discretion limit access to the Services and/or terminate the memberships of any Users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.
