Digital Millennium Copyright Act. If you are a copyright owner and have a good faith belief that any material available through the Product infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a copyright infringement notification to SOULCHI pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act by providing us with the following information in writing: 

an electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest; 

a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; 

a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Product, with enough detail that we may find it on the Product; 

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 owner, its agent, or the law; and 

a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.  Procedure to Deliver Counter-Notice: If any user believes any material removed is either not infringing or that such user has the right to post and use such material from the copyright owner, the copyright owner’s agent, or pursuant to the law, the user must send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent listed below: 

A physical or electronic signature of the user; 

Identification of the material that has been removed and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed; 

A statement that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the material; and 

The user’s name, address, telephone number, and, if available, e-mail address and a statement that such person or entity consents to the jurisdiction of the Federal Court for the judicial district in which the user’s address is located, or if the user’s address is located outside the United States, for any judicial district in which SOULCHI is located, and that such person or entity will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.  If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, SOULCHI will forward a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that SOULCHI may restore the removed material following 10 days. The original complaining party will then have 10 days to notify us that he or she has filed legal action relating to the allegedly infringing material. If SOULCHI does not receive any such notification within 10 days, we may restore the material, at our discretion. Please contact the Designated Agent to Receive Notification of Claimed Infringement for SOULCHI at: infringements@soulchi.world. Please consult your legal counsel for further details or see 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3). 

Governing Law; Arbitration; No Class Action. These Terms of Service, its subject matter and SOULCHI’s and your respective rights under these Terms of Service, as well as and any claim, cause of action or dispute (“claim”) arising out of or related to these Terms of Service, shall be governed by and construed under the laws of the State of Delaware, United States of America, excluding the conflict of law provisions of that or any other jurisdiction, regardless of your country of origin or where you access the Product. ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE OR THE PRODUCT WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT, except for SOULCHI’s right to seek injunctive relief as set forth below. Unless otherwise expressly required by applicable law, each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees without regard to which party is deemed the prevailing party in the arbitration proceeding.  If you do not want to arbitrate disputes with SOULCHI and you are an individual, you may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending an email to legal@soulchi.world within 30 days of the day you first access or use the Product. If you intend to seek arbitration you must first send written notice to SOULCHI of your intent to arbitrate (“Notice”). The Notice to SOULCHI should be sent by any of the following means: (i) electronic mail to legal@soulchi.world; or (ii) sending the Notice by U.S. Postal Service certified mail to: Attention: [SOULCHI INTERNATIONAL INC | 254 Chapman Road | Ste 209 | Newark, DE 19702]. The Notice must (x) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (y) set forth the specific relief sought; and (z) set forth your name, address and contact information. If we intend to seek arbitration against you, we will send any notice of dispute to you at the contact information we have for you. The arbitration will be conducted before a neutral single arbitrator in the New Castle County, Delaware, whose decision will be final and binding, and the arbitral proceedings will be governed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules, Consumer Due Process Protocol, and Supplementary Procedures for Resolution of Consumer Related Disputes, as modified by these Terms of Service. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this arbitration clause, but the arbitrator is bound by the terms of these Terms of Service. If you initiate arbitration, your arbitration fees will be limited to the filing fee set forth in the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. We will reimburse all other AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees paid by you, unless the arbitrator determines that the arbitration was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, in which case the payment of all such fees shall be governed by the AAA rules. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. For any claim where the potential award is reasonably likely to be $10,000 or less, either you or SOULCHI may elect to have the dispute resolved through non-appearance-based arbitration. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, YOU AND SOULCHI EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDING WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, YOU AND SOULCHI EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds the foregoing arbitration provisions invalid or inapplicable, you and SOULCHI agree that all claims arising out of or related to these Terms of Service must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in the New Castle County, Delaware, and you and SOULCHI each agree to submit to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating all such claims. Notwithstanding the above, you agree that SOULCHI shall still be allowed to apply for and obtain injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction. 

Language. This agreement was originally written in English (US). To the extent any translated version of this agreement conflicts with the English version, the English version controls. 

COPPA Compliance. To the extent that the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act 1998 is deemed to apply to us, the Product does not seek to collect personal information from children under 13. You may request access and/or rectification of your data or data relating to your children at all times via our support email address, privacy.officer@soulchi.world. 

Miscellaneous. These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between SOULCHI and you concerning the subject matter hereof. In the event that any of the Terms of Service are held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provisions shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms of Service shall otherwise remain in full force and effect. A waiver by SOULCHI or you of any provision of these Terms of Service or any breach thereof, in any one instance, will not waive such term or condition or any subsequent breach thereof. SOULCHI may assign its rights or obligations under these Terms of Service without condition. These Terms of Service will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of SOULCHI and you, and SOULCHI’s and your respective successors and permitted assigns.
