NFT Purchases and Payment
- Ownership of a Company NFT. We offer you the right to purchase or transact in certain Company NFTs via the
Services. When you purchase a Company NFT from us or another lawful owner in a secondary sale, you own the
NFT, but you do not possess any intellectual property rights in the NFT-Linked Content except for the
license grants expressly set forth herein in Section 5.1 (“Scope of License”). Your purchase or other
acquisition of a Company NFT is, in each instance, governed by these Terms and any terms and conditions
specific to such Company NFT. As a result of the open-source nature of public blockchains, it is possible
that there may be a fork, merge, or duplication of the underlying blockchain that has recorded ownership
of your Company NFT. In such case, any rights granted under this Agreement to owners of any Company NFT
will only be granted to the lawful owners of such Company NFT whose ownership is recorded on the mainnet
version of the blockchain that is generally recognized and predominantly supported in the blockchain
industry as the legitimate owner.
- Payment for Purchases. You acknowledge and agree that all information you provide with regards to a
purchase of a Company NFT, is accurate, current and complete. When you purchase a Company NFT or other
product or service via the Services (an “Offering”), you (a) agree to pay the price for such Offering as
set forth in the applicable Service, any charges necessary to the fulfillment of the Offering, including
any required gas fees, and all applicable taxes (which may include, without limitation, sales, use,
value-added and other taxes, duties and assessments other than taxes on our net income) in connection with
your purchase (the “Full Purchase Amount”), and (b) authorize us and/or a third-party platform or system
that fulfills payments for Offering to charge your credit card (if applicable to your purchase) or other
payment method for the Full Purchase Amount. For clarity, you may be required to agree to the third party
platform or system’s terms and conditions and create an account in order to make a purchase. You
acknowledge that with respect to Company NFTs, Company may impose a fee on any secondary sales of such
Company NFT after its initial purchase, regardless of whether such secondary sale occurs on the NFT
Platform or on some other platform, and such fee will be deducted from the proceeds from selling the
Company NFT. Unless otherwise noted, all currency references are in U.S. Dollars. All fees and charges are
payable in accordance with payment terms in effect at the time the fee or the charge becomes payable.
Orders will not be processed until payment has been received in full, and any holds on your account by any
payment processor are solely your responsibility. Your order may be suspended or cancelled for any reason,
including if the payment method cannot be verified, is invalid or is otherwise not acceptable.
- No Liability for Payments and Transactions. We have no liability to you or to any third party for any
claims or damages that may arise as a result of any payments or transactions that you engage in via the
Services, or any other payment or transactions that you conduct via the Services. Except as may be
expressly provided in connection with the sale of a specific Company NFT, we do not provide refunds for
any purchases that you might make on or through the Services or for Company NFTs (whether purchased
through the Services or elsewhere).
- Purchases Made for Consumptive Use. You acknowledge and affirm that you are purchasing Company NFTs,
whether through the Services or through a Third Party Platform (defined below), for purposes of acquiring
digital collectibles and not for any investment or speculative purposes. Any economic benefit that may be
derived from appreciation in the value of the Company NFT is incidental to obtaining it for its
collectible purpose.
- Promotional Codes. We may offer certain promotional codes, referral codes, discount codes, coupon codes or
similar offers (“Promotional Codes”) that may be redeemed for discounts on future Offerings, or other
features or benefits related to the Services, subject to any additional terms that the Company
establishes. You agree that Promotional Codes: (a) must be used in a lawful manner; (b) must be used for
the intended audience and purpose; (c) may not be duplicated, sold or transferred in any manner, or made
available by you to the general public (whether posted to a public forum, coupon collecting service, or
otherwise), unless expressly permitted by the Company; (d) may be disabled or have additional conditions
applied to them by the Company at any time for any reason without liability to the Company; (e) may only
be used pursuant to the specific terms that the Company establishes for such Promotional Code; (f) are not
valid for cash or other credits or points; and (g) may expire prior to your use.
- Changes and Pricing. The Company may, at any time, revise or change the pricing, availability,
specifications, content, descriptions or features of any Offerings. While we attempt to be as accurate as
we can in our descriptions for the Offerings, we do not warrant that Offering descriptions are accurate,
complete, reliable, current, or error-free. The inclusion of any Offerings for purchase through the
Services at a particular time does not imply or warrant that the Offerings will be available at any other
time. We reserve the right to change prices for Offerings displayed on the Services at any time, and to
correct pricing errors that may inadvertently occur (and to cancel any orders in our sole discretion that
were purchased with pricing errors). All such changes shall be effective immediately upon posting of such
new Offering prices to the Services and/or upon making the customer aware of the pricing error.
- Non-Custodial Wallet. You may choose to associate a non-custodial wallet (by way of example, a MetaMask or
Coinbase Wallet) (“Non-Custodial Wallet”) with your Account. Non-Custodial Wallets allow you to log into
your Account and purchase, store and engage in transactions using the interface provided by the Services.
Associating a Non-Custodial Wallet, or a specific type thereof (e.g., a MetaMask wallet) may be required
as a condition to receiving a Company NFT, as provided in the specific terms and conditions of an
individual drop. By using a Non-Custodial Wallet in connection with the Services, you agree that you are
using such Non-Custodial Wallet under the terms and conditions of the applicable providers of such
Non-Custodial Wallet. Non-Custodial Wallets are not associated with, maintained by, supported by, or
affiliated with Company.
Company reserves the right to refuse to accept a Non-Custodial Wallet in its sole and exclusive discretion.
Company accepts no responsibility or liability to you in connection with your use of a Non-Custodial Wallet,
and makes no representations or warranties regarding how the Services will operate with any specific
Non-Custodial Wallet. The private keys necessary to decrypt a Non-Custodial Wallet are held solely by you, and
not by Company. Company has no ability to help you access or recover your private keys for your Non-Custodial
Wallet, so please keep them in a safe place.

- Rights We Grant You.
- Scope of License. If you purchase a Company NFT, then subject to your compliance with these Terms and any
terms and conditions specific to such NFT, Company hereby grants you a worldwide, non-exclusive,
non-transferable, royalty-free license to use, copy, and display the NFT-Linked Content for such purchased
Company NFT, solely for the following purposes: (a) for your own personal, non-commercial use; (b) as part
of a marketplace that permits the purchase and sale of your Company NFTs, provided that the marketplace
cryptographically verifies each Company NFT’s owner’s rights to display the NFT-Linked Content for their
Company NFT to ensure that only the actual owner can display such Content; or (c) as part of a third party
website or application that permits the inclusion, involvement, or participation of your Company NFT,
provided that the website/application cryptographically verifies each Company NFT’s owner’s rights to
display the NFT-Linked Content for their Company NFT to ensure that only the actual owner can display the
Content, and provided that the Content is no longer visible once the owner of the Company NFT leaves the
website. This license only lasts as long as you are the valid owner and holder of the Company NFT
associated with the licensed Content. If you sell or transfer the Company NFT to another person, this
license will transfer to such other owner or holder of the Company NFT, and you will no longer have the
benefits of such license. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. With respect to NFT-Gated
Content, for so long as you own the applicable Company NFT that is required to access the NFT-Gated
Content, Company hereby grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to access and
view NFT-Gated Content through your Account and solely within the Services solely for your personal use.
- Limitations on License. You agree that you may not, nor permit any third party to do or attempt to do any
of the following without our (or, as applicable, our licensors’) express prior written consent in each
case: (a) modify the Content in any way, including, without limitation, the shapes, designs, drawings,
attributes, or color schemes; (b) use the Content to advertise, market, or sell any third party product or
service; (c) use the Content for any derogatory or defamatory purpose that creates harmful associations or
a risk of harm, damage or liability to any of the Company Entities, e.g., in connection with images,
videos, or other forms of media that depict hatred, intolerance, violence, cruelty, or anything else that
could reasonably be found to constitute hate speech or otherwise infringe upon the rights of others; (d)
sell, distribute, copy, record, reproduce, archive, modify, broadcast, exploit or transmit for commercial
gain (including, without limitation, giving away in the hopes of eventual commercial gain), the Content or
otherwise commercialize merchandise that includes, contains, or consists of the Content; (e) attempt to
trademark, copyright, or otherwise acquire additional intellectual property rights in or to the Content;

- Disclaimers, Limitations of Liability and Indemnification
- Disclaimers.
- Your access to and use of the Services are at your own risk. You understand and agree that the Services
are provided to you on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. Without limiting the foregoing, to the
maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the Company, its parents, affiliates, related companies,
officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, partners and licensors (the “Company
Entities”) DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. The Company Entities make no warranty or
representation and disclaim all responsibility and liability for: (a) the completeness, accuracy,
availability, timeliness, security or reliability of the Services; (b) any harm to your computer
system, loss of data, or other harm that results from your access to or use of the Services; (c) the

- THE LAWS OF CERTAIN JURISDICTIONS, INCLUDING THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY, DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.2 BELOW.
IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.
- THE COMPANY ENTITIES TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY AND ASSUME NO LIABILITY FOR ANY CONTENT THAT YOU, ANOTHER
USER, OR A THIRD PARTY CREATES, UPLOADS, POSTS, SENDS, RECEIVES, OR STORES ON OR THROUGH OUR SERVICES.
- YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU MAY BE EXPOSED TO CONTENT THAT MIGHT BE OFFENSIVE, ILLEGAL,
MISLEADING, OR OTHERWISE INAPPROPRIATE, NONE OF WHICH THE COMPANY ENTITIES WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR.
- You acknowledge and agree that there are risks associated with purchasing and holding NFTs and using
blockchain technology. These include, but are not limited to, risk of losing access to Company NFTs due
to loss of a PIN, wallet keys, two-factor authentication devices, or log-in information, custodial
error or purchaser error, smart contract error, risk of mining or blockchain attacks, risk of hacking
and security weaknesses, risk of unfavorable regulatory intervention in one or more jurisdictions,
risks related to token taxation, risk of personal information disclosure, risk of uninsured losses,
unanticipated risks, and volatility risks. The prices of collectible blockchain assets are extremely
volatile and subjective and collectible blockchain assets have no inherent or intrinsic value. Each
Company NFT has no inherent or intrinsic value. You acknowledge that you have obtained sufficient
information to make an informed decision to purchase an NFT, including carefully reviewing the code of
the smart contract and the NFT and fully understand and accept the functions of the same. The
regulatory regime governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies and tokens is uncertain, and new
regulations or policies may materially adversely affect the development of the Services, and therefore
the potential utility or value of your Company NFTs. Upgrades to any blockchain network or hard forks
in such networks, or a change in how transactions are confirmed on such blockchain networks may have
unintended, adverse effects on all blockchains, including any that are related to your Company NFTs.
Any purchase or sale you make, accept or facilitate outside of the Services of an NFT will be entirely
at your own risk. Any use of a wallet will be entirely at your own risk. Except as may otherwise be
provided in these Terms, we do not control or endorse purchases or sales of NFTs outside of the
Services. You are solely responsible to pay any and all sales, use, value-added and other taxes,
duties, and assessments (except taxes on our net income) now or hereafter claimed or imposed by any
governmental authority associated with your use of the Services. Except for income taxes levied on us,
you: (a) will be solely responsible for reporting any tax obligations when, if ever, such obligations
arise as a result of your use of the Services or in relation to a Company NFT; (b) will pay or
reimburse Company for all national, federal, state, local or other taxes and assessments of any
jurisdiction, including value added taxes and other taxes as may be required, and amounts levied in
lieu thereof based on charges set, services performed or payments made hereunder, as are now or
hereafter may be imposed under the authority of any national, state, local or any other taxing
jurisdiction; and (c) will not be entitled to deduct the amount of any such taxes, duties or
assessments from payments (including blockchain gas fees) made to us pursuant to these Terms. Neither
these Terms nor any other communication from Company constitutes tax advice, and users are solely
responsible for determining what, if any, taxes apply to their interaction with Company NFTs and the
Services. We expressly deny and disclaim any liability to you and deny any obligation to indemnify you
or hold you harmless for any losses you may incur by transacting, or facilitating transactions, in NFTs
outside of the Services.
- Limitations of Liability. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY
ENTITIES BE LIABLE (A) FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING INDIRECT SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL,
CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR
SERVICES, LOSS OF USE, DATA OR PROFITS, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING OUT
OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES), HOWEVER CAUSED AND UNDER ANY THEORY OF
LIABILITY, WHETHER UNDER THESE TERMS OR OTHERWISE ARISING IN ANY WAY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES OR
THESE TERMS AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY OR TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) EVEN IF
THE COMPANY ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, OR (B) FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM,
DEMAND OR DAMAGES WHATSOEVER RESULTING FROM OR ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE
DELIVERY, USE OR PERFORMANCE OF THE SERVICES. THE COMPANY ENTITIES’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY DAMAGES
FINALLY AWARDED SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00), OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID THE
COMPANY ENTITIES, IF ANY, IN THE PAST SIX (6) MONTHS FOR THE SERVICES (OR OFFERINGS PURCHASED ON THE
SERVICES) GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY
FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
- Indemnification. By entering into these Terms and accessing or using the Services, you agree that you
shall defend, indemnify and hold the Company Entities harmless from and against any and all claims, costs,
damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys’ fees and costs) incurred by the Company
Entities arising out of or in connection with: (a) your violation or breach of any term of these Terms or
any applicable law or regulation; (b) your violation of any rights of any third party; (c) your misuse of
the Services; (d) Your Content, or (e) your negligence or wilful misconduct. If you are obligated to
indemnify any Company Entity hereunder, then you agree that Company (or, at its discretion, the applicable
Company Entity) will have the right, in its sole discretion, to control any action or proceeding and to
determine whether Company wishes to settle, and if so, on what terms, and you agree to fully cooperate
with Company in the defense or settlement of such claim.
- ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
- PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT
TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY
BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
- Informal Process First. You and the Company agree that in the event of any dispute between you and the
Company Entities, either party will first contact the other party and make a good faith sustained effort
to resolve the dispute before resorting to more formal means of resolution, including without limitation,
any court action, after first allowing the receiving party thirty (30) days in which to respond. Both you
and the Company agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent which must be
satisfied before initiating any arbitration against the other party.
- Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver. After the informal dispute resolution process, any
remaining dispute, controversy, or claim (collectively, “Claim”) relating in any way to the Company’s
services and/or products, including the Services, and any use or access or lack of access thereto, will be
resolved by arbitration, including threshold questions of arbitrability of the Claim. You and the Company
agree that any Claim will be settled by final and binding arbitration, using the English language,
administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) then in
effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of the date of
these Terms). Because your contract with the Company, these Terms, and this Arbitration Agreement concern
interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all disputes.
However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable
statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit. Arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in
accordance with the JAMS Rules. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has
jurisdiction. Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis – class
arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. You understand that by agreeing to these Terms, you and
the Company are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action or class
arbitration.
- Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and the Company agree that the following types of disputes
will be resolved in a court of proper jurisdiction:
- disputes or claims within the jurisdiction of a small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional
and dollar limits that may apply, as long as it is brought and maintained as an individual dispute and
not as a class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding;
- disputes or claims where the sole form of relief sought is injunctive relief (including public
injunctive relief); or
- intellectual property disputes.
- Costs of Arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator costs and expenses will be
governed by the JAMS Rules, except that if you demonstrate that any such costs and expenses owed by you
under those rules would be prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding, the Company will pay the
amount of any such costs and expenses that the arbitrator determines are necessary to prevent the
arbitration from being prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding (subject to possible
reimbursement as set forth below). Fees and costs may be awarded as provided pursuant to applicable law.
If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is
frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of
Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the JAMS rules. In that case, you
agree to reimburse the Company for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your
obligation to pay under the applicable rules. If you prevail in the arbitration and are awarded an amount
that is less than the last written settlement amount offered by the Company before the arbitrator was
appointed, the Company will pay you the amount it offered in settlement. The arbitrator may make rulings
and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the
proceeding and upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on
the merits
- Opt-Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions set forth in these
Terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out
to sup@madrealities.tv or to the U.S. mailing address listed in the “How
to Contact Us” section of these Terms. The notice must be sent to the Company within thirty (30) days of
your first registering to use the Services or agreeing to these Terms; otherwise you shall be bound to
arbitrate disputes on a non-class basis in accordance with these Terms. If you opt out of only the
arbitration provisions, and not also the class action waiver, the class action waiver still applies. You
may not opt out of only the class action waiver and not also the arbitration provisions. If you opt-out of
these arbitration provisions, the Company also will not be bound by them.
- WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BRING CLASS ACTION AND REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, you and the Company each agree that any proceeding to resolve any dispute, claim, or
controversy will be brought and conducted ONLY IN THE RESPECTIVE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS
PART OF ANY CLASS (OR PURPORTED CLASS), CONSOLIDATED, MULTIPLE-PLAINTIFF, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR
PROCEEDING (“CLASS ACTION”). You and the Company AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR
CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION. You and the Company EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY ABILITY TO MAINTAIN A CLASS
ACTION IN ANY FORUM. If the dispute is subject to arbitration, THE ARBITRATOR WILL NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY
TO COMBINE OR AGGREGATE CLAIMS, CONDUCT A CLASS ACTION, OR MAKE AN AWARD TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY NOT A
PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION. Further, you and the Company agree that the ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE
PROCEEDINGS FOR MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND IT MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS
ACTION. For the avoidance of doubt, however, you can seek public injunctive relief to the extent
authorized by law and consistent with the Exceptions clause above.
IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR FOUND UNENFORCEABLE, THEN, UNLESS THE PARTIES MUTUALLY
AGREE OTHERWISE, THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL BE NULL AND VOID WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING SO
LONG AS THE PROCEEDING IS PERMITTED TO PROCEED AS A CLASS ACTION. If a court decides that the limitations of
this paragraph are deemed invalid or unenforceable, any putative class, private attorney general, or
consolidated or representative action must be brought in a court of proper jurisdiction and not in
arbitration.
- Additional Provisions
- SMS Messaging and Phone Calls. Certain portions of the Services may allow us to contact you via telephone
or text messages. You agree that the Company may contact you via telephone or text messages (including by
an automatic telephone dialing system) at any of the phone numbers provided by you or on your behalf in
connection with your use of the Services, including for marketing purposes. You understand that you are
not required to provide this consent as a condition of purchasing any Offerings. You also understand that
you may opt out of receiving text messages from us at any time, either by texting the word “STOP” to
9178103314 or in reply to your original message, or by contacting by email
to sup@madrealities.tv. If you do not choose to opt out, we may contact
you as outlined in our Privacy Policy.
- Updating These Terms. We may modify these Terms from time to time in which case we will update the “Last
Revised” date at the top of these Terms. If we make changes that are material, we will use reasonable
efforts to attempt to notify you, such as by e-mail and/or by placing a prominent notice on the first page
of the Website. However, it is your sole responsibility to review these Terms from time to time to view
any such changes. The updated Terms will be effective as of the time of posting, or such later date as may
be specified in the updated Terms. Your continued access or use of the Services after the modifications
have become effective will be deemed your acceptance of the modified Terms. No amendment shall apply to a
dispute for which an arbitration has been initiated prior to the change in Terms
- Termination of License. If you breach any of the provisions of these Terms, all licenses granted by the
Company will terminate automatically. All sections which by their nature should survive the termination of
these Terms shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding any termination of
these Terms by the Company or you. Termination will not limit any of the Company’s other rights or
remedies at law or in equity.
- Injunctive Relief. You agree that a breach of these Terms will cause irreparable injury to the Company for
which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and the Company shall be entitled to equitable
relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security or proof
of damages.
- California Residents. If you are a California resident, in accordance with Cal. Civ. Code § 1789.3, you
may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the
California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite

- Export Laws. You agree that you will not export or re-export, directly or indirectly, the Services and/or
other information or materials provided by the Company hereunder, to any country for which the United
States or any other relevant jurisdiction requires any export license or other governmental approval at
the time of export without first obtaining such license or approval. In particular, but without
limitation, the Services may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries or any
country that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country, or (b) to
anyone listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties, including the U.S. Treasury
Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s
List or Entity List. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such
country or on any such list. You are responsible for and hereby agree to comply at your sole expense with
all applicable United States export laws and regulations.
- Miscellaneous. If any provision of these Terms shall be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable,
then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and
enforceability of any remaining provisions. These Terms and the licenses granted hereunder may be assigned
by the Company but may not be assigned by you without the prior express written consent of the Company. No
waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding
or subsequent breach or default. The section headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be
read to have any legal effect. The Services are operated by us in the United States. Those who choose to
access the Services from locations outside the United States do so at their own initiative and are
responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State
of New York, without regard to conflict of laws rules, and the proper venue for any disputes arising out
of or relating to any of the same will be the arbitration venue set forth in Section 9, or if arbitration
does not apply, then the state and federal courts located in the State of New York. You and the Company
agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply
to the interpretation or construction of these Terms. If you have any questions about these Terms or the
Services, you can reach us at sup@madrealities.tv.
