5. OWNERSHIP OF RIGHTS; LICENSE RIGHTS; USER SUBMISSIONS

A. Ownership of Your User Content. You retain ownership of your rights in any User Content you post to the Service, subject to the non-exclusive rights that you grant to us as described in these Terms.

i. Subject to your right to terminate your license to us as described in Section 5(C) below, you hereby grant LIVESTRONG.COM an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, freely transferable, freely sub-licensable (through unlimited levels of sublicense), non-exclusive license to use, reproduce, modify, transmit, distribute, publicly perform and display (including in each case by means of a digital audio and video transmission), advertise in, on, and around, and create derivative works of the User Content you submit or make available for inclusion on or through the Service, and to incorporate such User Content into other works in any form, media, or technology now known or later developed.

We may (but are not obligated to) display your User Content, including your username and your actual name (according to the preferences you select).

C. Your Right to Terminate the License. At any time, you may modify or remove from the Service any User Content consisting of photos, graphics, audio or video that you have submitted or made available for inclusion on or through the Service (but not, for clarity, any User Content solely in the form of text that you have posted to the Community Services). Your removal of such User Content from the Service will terminate our license to such User Content. But, if prior to such removal or modification, LIVESTRONG.COM has distributed, or developed specific plans to distribute, any electronic, printed, or other materials containing such User Content (e.g., in advertising, promotion or otherwise), then LIVESTRONG.COM and its licensees have a limited right to continue to distribute those materials. You may terminate this limited license by sending us written notice to stop distributing the materials, in which event we will stop distributing the materials within thirty (30) days. Your notice must be sent through our “Contact Us” web page located at www.LIVESTRONG.COM/contact-us, have a subject heading of “REMOVE CONTENT,” and include your telephone number and email address. In addition, the notice must clearly identify the User Content at issue and contain statements that you own or have an exclusive right to the User Content and that all the information in the notice is true and correct. The thirty (30) day period for LIVESTRONG.COM to stop distributing your User Content begins only once LIVESTRONG.COM has received a notice complying with the requirements of this Section 5(C).

D. User Submissions. When you submit ideas, suggestions, documents, or proposals (collectively, “Submissions”) to LIVESTRONG.COM via the Service, email or other forms of communications, you represent, warrant, and agree that: (i) your Submissions do not include confidential or proprietary information; (ii) if we so choose, LIVESTRONG.COM may use and disclose your Submissions in any way; (iii) LIVESTRONG.COM has wide access to submissions, designs, concepts, ideas, and other materials, and that new submissions, designs, concepts, ideas, and other materials, are constantly being submitted to it or being developed by its own employees, agents, consultants or representatives. You also acknowledge that such submissions, designs, concepts, ideas, and other materials, may be competitive with, similar to, or identical to your Submissions and/or each other in design, concept, style, or other respects; and (iv) LIVESTRONG.COM has no obligation to pay or reimburse you for your Submissions or our use of your Submissions.

8. MONITORING OF SERVICE CONTENT; RESOLUTION OF USER DISPUTES

B. Right to Resolve Disputes LIVESTRONG.COM has the right, but not the obligation to attempt to resolve disputes between users relating to the Service and LIVESTRONG.COM’s resolution of a particular dispute does not create an obligation to resolve any other dispute. LIVESTRONG.COM’s resolution of any dispute is final with respect to the Service.

5. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that the use of the Content is not authorized by the copyright owner or other intellectual property rights owner, its agent, or the law; and

B. Procedures to Supply a Counter-Notice to the Designated Agent. If you, as a LIVESTRONG.COM user, believe that the Content that was removed or to which access was disabled is not infringing, or if you believe you have obtained all required rights from their owners, the owners’ agent, or pursuant to the law, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent:

1. Your physical or electronic signature;
2. Identification of the Content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the Content or other material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
3. A statement, under penalty of perjury, 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 to be removed or disabled; and
4. Your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or if your address is outside the United States, for any judicial district in which LIVESTRONG.COM may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the NOCI to LIVESTRONG.COM or such person’s agent.

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, LIVESTRONG.COM may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party that submitted the NOCI informing the complaining party that LIVESTRONG.COM may replace the removed Content and/or cease disabling it in ten (10) business days following receipt of the counter-notice unless the complaining party notifies the Designated Agent that it has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the LIVESTRONG.COM user from engaging in infringing activity relating to the Content that was the subject of the NOCI.

C. It is our policy to terminate, in appropriate circumstances, any Account or user for repeated infringement of intellectual property rights, including copyrights, and we also reserve the right to terminate an Account or user for even one instance of infringement.

D. LIVESTRONG.COM may access, preserve and disclose to third parties any of your Account information, User Content or data (including personally identifiable information and private communications) related to a written complaint of copyright infringement if we believe in our sole discretion that such access, preservation, or disclosure is necessary or useful to respond or otherwise address such complaint.

21. SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM TERMS
LIVESTRONG.COM may offer certain programs as part of the Service which require a subscription (“Subscription Program”). If you participate in a Subscription Program, the following terms apply (the “Subscription Program Terms”), and are governed by the Terms, which are incorporated herein by reference. In the event of a conflict between these Subscription Program Terms and the Terms, these Subscription Program Terms will control.

A. PARTICIPATION.

You must be at least eighteen (18) years old to purchase a subscription to the Subscription Program, which is intended for adults age eighteen (18) and over. If you are a parent or guardian purchasing a subscription to the Subscription Program for use by your thirteen (13) to seventeen (17)-year-old child (together, and as applicable, “you”), you acknowledge that the Content may not be appropriate for all age groups, and agree to supervise and assume responsibility for all such use by your child. If we accept you in the Subscription Program, you may privately view the Content made available to you through the Service on your device for your own personal non-commercial purposes. You may not copy, store, modify, download, distribute or create derivative works from the Content. Any login credentials made available to you, or utilized by you, in connection with the Subscription Program must be kept confidential, and may not be shared, sold or otherwise distributed to any other person or entity.

B. REGISTRATION AND FREE TRIAL PERIOD (If Applicable).

Your participation in the Subscription Program will commence on the day of your successful registration. If you register pursuant to one of our free trial offers (each such offer, part of the Service), you may cancel at any time without charge during the free trial period described in such offer (“Free Trial Period”) by following the instructions applicable to the Subscription Program displayed via the Service. If you have not submitted a valid cancellation during such Free Trial Period, we will begin to charge your credit card or alternate payment method accepted by us (“Your Payment Method”) the subscription rate described in the Service upon expiration of the Free Trial Period. If you do not register pursuant to one of our free trial offers, we will begin to charge Your Payment Method the subscription rate described in the Service upon your successful registration. The “Initial Term” is the initial term applicable to your subscription described in the Service, following expiration of any Free Trial Period, if any. You may not participate in more than one (1) Free Trial Period.

C. RATES AND PROMOTIONS.

When you purchase a subscription to the Subscription Program, you initially will be charged the rate applicable at the time of purchase, which rate will be displayed via the Service. If we subsequently increase the rate, we will notify you via the contact information you provided through the Service. You are responsible for ensuring via the Service that your billing and contact information is accurate and up-to-date. The increased rate will apply to the next payment due from you after the notice, provided that you have been given at least ten (10) days prior notice before the charge is made. If you are given less than ten (10) days prior notice, the rate increase will not apply until the payment after the next payment is due. We may also require you to follow additional rules, guidelines or other conditions in order to participate in certain promotions or activities available through the Subscription Program, to obtain certain premium Content, or for other reasons. These additional terms will be made available through the Service and are part of these Subscription Program Terms, and you agree to comply with them when you participate in those promotions, or otherwise engage in activities governed by such additional terms. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our members (“Credits”). The amount and form of such Credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion.

D. AUTOMATIC RENEWAL.

Your subscription to the Subscription Program will continue until terminated by you or us. YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL BE AUTOMATICALLY RENEWED FOLLOWING THE INITIAL TERM FOR ROLLING PERIODS EQUIVALENT TO THE INITIAL TERM (each such period, a “RENEWAL TERM”), AND YOUR PAYMENT METHOD WILL BE CHARGED THE APPLICABLE SUBSCRIPTION RATE IN ADVANCE, ON THE FIRST DAY OF EACH ROLLING RENEWAL TERM FOLLOWING EXPIRATION OF THE INITIAL TERM OR ANY PREVIOUS RENEWAL TERM. IF YOU DO NOT DESIRE TO HAVE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AUTOMATICALLY RENEWED, YOU MUST TERMINATE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AS SET FORTH IN SECTION E BELOW.

E. TERMINATION.

You may terminate your subscription for any reason by following the instructions applicable to the Subscription Program displayed via the Service; however, there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. Your valid termination notice will take effect at the end of the current rolling Renewal Term in which such notice was provided to us, provided you follow the Service instructions regarding termination. For clarity, correspondence with our customer support team will not constitute a valid termination notice from you. We may, in our sole discretion, terminate, suspend or modify the Subscription Program or any feature thereof, or your access thereto, at any time, with or without notice, and without refunds, credits or reimbursements.

F. DISCLAIMER.

WE ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR NOR MAKE ANY WARRANTY NOR REPRESENTATION AS TO: (i) THE ACCURACY, CURRENCY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, OR USEFULNESS OF THE SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM, SERVICE OR CONTENT (INCLUDING DESCRIPTIONS THEREOF) DISTRIBUTED OR MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH OR OUTSIDE THE SERVICE; OR (ii) ANY RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE SUBSCRIPTION PROGRAM, SERVICE OR CONTENT.

If the Applicable Law allows you to withdraw your consent to conducting transactions electronically, or if we are ever required to deal with you non-electronically, we reserve the right to charge or increase fees and you agree to print or make an electronic copy of these Terms and any other contract or disclosure that we are required to provide to you.

B. No Agency. These Terms do not create any agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchisor-franchisee relationship.

C. Severance. If any part of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the invalid or unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible and the remainder will remain in full effect, provided that the allocation of risks described in these Terms is given effect to the fullest extent possible.

F. Arbitration. All disputes arising out of these Terms (including the formation, performance or alleged breach) or your use of the Service will be exclusively resolved under confidential binding arbitration. If you can demonstrate that arbitration in California would create an undue burden to you, you are free to initiate the arbitration in your home state. Otherwise, the arbitration hearings will be held in Los Angeles County, California before and in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association. You may download or copy a form notice at www.adr.org. If you initiate arbitration, your arbitration fees will be limited to the filing fees. The arbitrator’s award will be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no arbitration under these Terms will be joined to an arbitration involving any other party subject to these Terms, whether through class arbitration proceedings or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we will have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in the state or federal court in Los Angeles County, California to enforce these Terms or prevent infringement of a third party’s rights. In the event equitable relief is sought, each party irrevocably submits to the personal jurisdiction of such court.

K. No Waiver. The failure of any party to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms, including any failure to act with respect to a breach, will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision or that party’s right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches. We suggest that you print out a copy of these Terms for your records.
