NOTICE OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

The Nib respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects those who use the Services to do the same.

(This address is to be used only to notify us of claimed copyright infringement on the Services. Please direct any other comments or inquiries to the Customer Support address below.)

Please note that we may access and disclose your personally identifiable information in order to address any infringement claim.

SUBSCRIPTIONS AND PRODUCTS

Certain areas of the Services require payment before you can access them (“Subscriptions”). For example, you may need to subscribe in order to access certain video content on our Services. Subscriptions can be purchased by paying a subscription fee. When you register for a Subscription, you consent to get access to the premium areas of our Service immediately. SUBSCRIPTIONS CANNOT BE TERMINATED BEFORE THE END OF THE PERIOD FOR WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, AND THE NIB WILL NOT REFUND ANY FEES THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID. Your payment will automatically renew at the end of the subscription period, unless you cancel your Subscription through your subscription page before the end of the current subscription period. The cancellation will take effect the day after the last day of the current subscription period. The Nib may change the price for the Subscriptions, from time to time, by posting the new price on its Services. Price changes for Subscriptions will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change. As permitted by local law, you accept the new price by continuing to use the Services after the price change takes effect. If you do not agree with the price changes, you have the right to reject the change by unsubscribing from the Services prior to the price change going into effect. Please therefore make sure you read any such notification of price changes carefully. Additional Terms may apply.

Recurring Plan Terms

This is a recurring membership that automatically renews on a monthly basis from the day you join at the level of your membership. You may cancel at any time by logging into your account and turning off Recurring Plan feature or by contacting support@thenib.com and requesting cancellation. A membership is not a tax deductible transaction.

Automatic Payment Authorization

By providing your payment card and clicking the Place Order button as your electronic signature, you authorize us to initiate recurring monthly charges/debits to your payment card automatically to pay the amount due for your membership. Charges will be made to your card as of your recurring renewal date in the amount you selected upon joining. [Membership charges may increase and you will be notified 10 days in advance.] This authorization will remain in effect until it is revoked by you or us. You may revoke this authorization at any time by turning off Recurring Plan feature in your Account and your revocation will take effect within a reasonable time thereafter. Keep a copy of this form for your records.

We do our best to describe every product or service offered on our Services as accurately as possible. However, we are human, and therefore we do not warrant that product specifications, pricing, or other content on the Services is complete, accurate, reliable, current, or error-free. In the event of any errors relating to the pricing or specifications, The Nib shall have the right to refuse or cancel any orders in its sole discretion. If we charged your credit card or other account prior to our cancellation, we will issue a credit to your account in the amount of the charge. Additional Terms may apply. If a product or service you purchased from The Nib is not as described, your sole remedy is to cancel the purchase and receive a credit for the purchase price.

All physical products purchased from the Services are made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon delivery to the carrier.

For any purchases made through third-party platform providers, such as Apple, Amazon, Roku, or Google, please contact their customer support. Their terms, conditions and policies, and not ours, apply and we do not handle returns or refund requests for purchases through those third-party platform providers.

You understand that we may send you a text message confirming any opt-out by you.

Location-Based Features. If you have location-based features on your wireless Device, you acknowledge that your Device location will be tracked and shared consistent with the Privacy Policy.

DISCLAIMERS

Third Parties. Throughout our Services, we provide links to websites and other services maintained by third parties. Our linking to such third-party services does not imply that we endorse such services, or the information, products or services offered on or through those services. The Services may also contain or may interact with third-party content that is not owned, controlled or operated by The Nib (collectively, “Third-Party Services“). We may also host our content on Third-Party Services. The Nib neither endorses nor controls such Third-Party Services, and you acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible or liable for the information, content, products, or services on or available from such Third-Party Services, or for the results to be obtained from using them. If you choose to access any such Third-Party Services, you do so at your own risk.

Any interactions, transactions, and other dealings that you have with any third parties found on or through the Services are solely between you and the third party. You hereby agree to indemnify The Nib against all claims, injury, damages, and costs, including attorneys’ fees that arise out of your use of any Third-Party Service.

As Is. The Services are provided “as is,” “as available,” with all faults, and without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Services or any of the functions therein will be uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that any part of the Services, or the servers that make the Services available, are free of viruses or other harmful components. Any Content downloaded from or otherwise accessed through the Services is accessed at your own risk; you alone will be responsible for any damage to your person or property, including your computer system and any other Device you use to access the Services, which results from accessing such content. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE DISCLAIMERS HEREIN DO NOT EXCLUDE ANY PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS, STATUTORY CONSUMER RIGHTS, OR DAMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH PERSONAL INJURY OR RESULTING FROM COMPANY INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, RECKLESSNESS, FRAUD, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

If you are dissatisfied with the Services or Content, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue using the Services.

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY; RELEASE

Under no circumstances, including, but not limited to, negligence, will we be liable for any damages arising out of your use of the Services or of any information or Content made available on or through the Services, including indirect, incidental, special, punitive, exemplary, or consequential damages, even if we are advised beforehand of the possibility of such damages. Because some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain categories of damages, the above limitation may not apply to you. In such states, our liability is limited to the fullest extent permitted by state law.

You hereby release The Nib and its affiliates (and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, licensors, successors and assigns) from any and all claims, demands, losses, damages, rights, and actions of any kind, including personal injury, death, and property damage, that is related to or arises from your misuse of the Services, including, but not limited to, any interactions with or conduct of other users or third-party websites or services. If you are a California resident, you hereby waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states that “[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.”

NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY HEREIN DO NOT EXCLUDE ANY PRODUCT LIABILITY CLAIMS, STATUTORY CONSUMER RIGHTS, OR DAMAGES ASSOCIATED WITH PERSONAL INJURY OR RESULTING FROM COMPANY INTENTIONAL MISCONDUCT, RECKLESSNESS, FRAUD, OR GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Nib, our affiliates, and each of our and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents, representatives, licensors, successors and assigns from and against any and all losses, expenses, damages and costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, that arise out of your misuse of the Services, violation of these Terms by you, or your violation of any rights of another. We reserve the right to control the defense of any claim for which we are entitled to indemnification under this Section. In such event, you agree to provide us with such cooperation as is reasonably requested by us. We will make reasonable efforts to provide you with notice of any such claim, but our failure to provide such notice will not relieve you of the indemnification obligations. This provision does not require you to indemnify The Nib for any unconscionable commercial practice or for The Nib’s fraud; deception; false promise; misrepresentation; or concealment, suppression, or omission of any material fact in connection with the Services.

Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes and Choice of Law

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.

  • WE BOTH AGREE TO ARBITRATE: You and The Nib agree to resolve any claims relating to these Terms through final and binding arbitration, except that, to the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate The Nib’s intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights). Under such circumstances The Nib may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, or intellectual property infringement (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
  • WHAT IS ARBITRATION: Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court and seeks to resolve disputes more quickly. Instead of a judge or a jury, the case will be decided by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same damages and relief that a court can. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision shall be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms shall be enforced.
  • ARBITRATION PROCEDURES: The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute resolution provision. Arbitration shall be initiated through JAMS. Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be referred to and finally determined by arbitration in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures in front of one arbitrator. If there is a conflict between JAMS Rules and the rules set forth in these Terms, the rules set forth in this Terms will govern. The JAMS Rules and instructions for how to initiate an arbitration are available from JAMS at http://www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267. To initiate arbitration, you or The Nib must do the following things:
  • (1) Write a Demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the claim and the amount of damages sought to be recovered. You can find a copy of a Demand for Arbitration at http://www.jamsadr.com.
  • (2) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the appropriate filing fee, to your local JAMS office or to: JAMS, Two Embarcadero Center, Suite 1500, San Francisco, CA 94111
  • (3) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party.

Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules. If travelling to Oregon is a burden, you may participate in the arbitration by phone or via document submission to the fullest extent allowable by the arbitrator. Each party will bear their own costs of arbitration unless the arbitrator directs that bearing such costs would be an undue burden and in that case, we will pay for your portion of the arbitration administrative costs (but not your attorneys’ fees). Arbitration under this agreement shall be held in the United States in Portland, Oregon under Oregon law without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The arbitration may award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive relief). Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

  • AUTHORITY OF ARBITRATOR: The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and The Nib, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitration rules, and these Terms (and any applicable Additional Terms). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and The Nib.
  • NO CLASS ACTIONS: You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed.
  • WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL: THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and The Nib in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND The Nib WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN ADVISED THAT YOU MAY CONSULT WITH AN ATTORNEY IN DECIDING TO ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE.
  • OPT-OUT OF AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE: You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by emailing The Nib here with the Subject Line “Arbitration Opt Out” and providing the requested information as follows: (1) your Name; (2) the URL of these Terms; (3) your Address; (4) your Phone Number; (5) and clear statement that you wish to opt out of this arbitration provision in these Terms. The opt-out notice must be emailed no later than 30 days after the date you first accept the Terms by using the Services.

Waiver of Injunctive or Other Equitable Relief.

YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN AN INJUNCTION OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND, SUCH AS ANY COURT OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF ANY WEBSITE, APPLICATION, CONTENT, SUBMISSIONS, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED OR CONTROLLED BY THE NIB OR A LICENSOR OF THE NIB.

MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms (inclusive of the Privacy Policy, any Additional Terms, and any other terms or policies incorporated here) constitute the entire agreement between us and you with respect to this subject matter and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements and communications on this subject, whether written or oral. The agreement under these Terms is personal to you, is not intended to benefit any third party, and does not create any third-party beneficiaries. If any provision of these Terms, or any Additional Terms, is for any reason deemed invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms or the Additional Terms, as applicable, and the invalidity of the provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of these Terms or the applicable Additional Terms. You hereby waive any applicable statutory and common law that may permit a contract to be construed against its drafter. The summaries of provisions and section headings are provided for convenience only and shall not limit the full Terms. The Nib may assign its rights and obligations under these Terms and any applicable Additional Terms, in whole or in part, to any party at any time without any notice. You may not assign these Terms or any applicable Additional Terms to anyone, and you may not delegate your duties under them, without the prior written consent of an officer of The Nib. No The Nib consent or approval may be deemed to have been granted by The Nib without being in writing and signed by an officer of The Nib. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms or any applicable Additional Terms, (i) no failure or delay by you or The Nib in exercising any of rights, powers, or remedies under will operate as a waiver of that or any other right, power, or remedy, and (ii) no waiver or modification of any term of these Terms or any applicable Additional Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the waiver or modification is sought to be enforced.

Our agreement under these Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action that you may have arising out of or related to use of the Services or these Terms must be filed by you within one year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

The Nib controls and operates the Services from the U.S.A., and The Nib makes no representation that the Services are appropriate or available for use beyond the U.S.A. You agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to these Terms. Software related to or made available by the Services may be subject to export controls of the U.S.A, and, except as authorized by law, you agree and warrant not to export or re-export the software to any county, or to any person, entity, or end-user subject to U.S. export controls or sanctions.

The Nib reserves the right to investigate and prosecute any suspected breaches of these Terms or the Services. The Nib may disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, legal process or governmental request.

The sections on Indemnification, Limitation of Liability; Release, and Disclaimers do not apply to New Jersey residents.
