You understand and agree that any unauthorized use of the Application or the Service will result in irreparable injury to ShareStack, its affiliates and/or their business partners, and/or licensors for which monetary compensation would be inadequate, and in such event and/or in a breach of these Terms, ShareStack, its affiliates and/or their business partners, licensors, as applicable, shall have the right, in addition to other remedies available at law and in equity, to immediate injunctive relief against you.

ShareStack may terminate your account at its sole discretion, for any reason or no reason at all. You may also discontinue your use of ShareStack and terminate your account at any time. However, the termination of your access to ShareStack will not release any of the parties from any obligations incurred prior to the termination. Furthermore, ShareStack may retain and continue to use any information provided by you for internal purposes. The termination of this Agreement will not have any effect on the disclaimers, waiver or liability limitations mentioned below and all of those terms will survive any termination of this Agreement.

ShareStack may in its sole discretion terminate the Terms or change, modify, discontinue, inactivate, suspend, cancel or terminate your account and/or the Application and/or the Service or any part thereof for any or no reason with or without previous notice to you.

You acknowledge that all discussion for ratings, comments and/or other message or communication facilities (collectively “Forums”) are public and not private communications, and that, therefore, others may read your communications without your knowledge. ShareStack does not control or endorse the content, messages or information found in any Forum and, therefore, ShareStack specifically disclaims any liability concerning the Forums and any actions resulting from Users’ participation in any Forum, including any objectionable content. Generally, any communication which you post to ShareStack is considered to be non-confidential. If particular web pages permit the submission of communications that will be treated by ShareStack as confidential, that fact will be stated on those pages. By posting comments, messages or other information on the Application, you grant ShareStack the right to use such comments or information for promotions, advertising, market research or any other lawful purpose without territorial, time or other limitation. For more information regarding this matter see ShareStack’s Privacy Policy.
As a convenience, the Application may contain links to other Internet sites that are owned and/or operated by third parties. By offering you these links, ShareStack is not endorsing any other sites and ShareStack has no responsibility or liability, directly or indirectly, for such third party sites, including without limitation for their content. You access third party linked sites at your own risk. ShareStack, its affiliates and/or their business partners may present promotional materials and advertisements through the Application. Such promotional materials and events belonging to the aforementioned third parties including, without limitation, payment and delivery of goods or services, your interaction with such third parties and their corresponding terms, conditions, and covenants are solely between you and such third party. ShareStack and/or its affiliates and their business partners shall not be responsible for any transactions or any claims you may have with such third parties.
Subject to the Terms of this Agreement, ShareStack grants you a limited, non-transferable, non-assignable and revocable right to a limited use of the Application for the purpose stated in these Terms in order to access and observe its content through an Internet browser, mobile phone or handheld computer, as may be applicable, and to use the limited functionalities of the Application such as registration, logging in and out, and purchasing as may be provided, changed and limited by ShareStack from time to time.
You grant ShareStack a transferable, assignable right to use the information you supply to this Application, including but not limited to the use of the information to provide you with services and to execute any appropriate charges as further explained in these Terms.
ShareStack may assign the Terms and its rights that arise thereunder. You may not assign your rights under these Terms.
The Service as well as all the content included in the Application, including without limitation the text, graphics, logos, icons, screens and configurations, are the property of ShareStack or its licensors (or is a nominative use of trademark) and is protected by United States and international copyright and trademark laws. All software used in the Service and in this Application is the property of ShareStack or its software suppliers and is also protected by United States and international copyright laws. You do not acquire any ownership rights by agreeing, accepting or consenting to these Terms. You do not acquire any ownership rights by printing or downloading any information or using the Application and/or the Service. Any use of the content or software of the Service or the Application other than for the express services provided is strictly prohibited, including without limitation reproducing, modifying, distributing, transmitting, replicating or public exhibition, or creating derivative works.
Portions of this Application allow users to post user-supplied content, which may include copyrighted works. To ensure compliance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), ShareStack shall take action upon receipt of notice from a copyright owner or their authorized agents if they have a good-faith belief that their copyrighted works are being infringed. Such notice from a copyright owner or authorized representative should be sent to:
Attn: Copyright Agent
Address: legal@invidgroup.com
ShareStack will respond to such notifications through email, fax, or regular mail.
To be effective, your notification must be in writing and include: (a) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site; (b) identification of the material or link claimed to be infringing and to which access is to be disabled, including, at a minimum, information reasonable sufficient to permit ShareStack to locate the material on this Application (such as the URL(s) of the claimed infringing material) and locate the user that posted the material; (c) information reasonably sufficient to permit ShareStack to contact you, such as an address, telephone number and, if available, an electronic mail address at which you may be contacted; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner
complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; (e) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; and (f) your physical or electronic signature.
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and ShareStack and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or oral or otherwise, with respect to the subject matter of these Terms. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of the Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void, unenforceable or against public policy, the remainder of the Terms shall remain in full force and effect and the unenforceable portion will be construed in accordance with applicable law as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties. ShareStack’s failure to pursue any available claim or defense pursuant to the Terms will not be a waiver of such claim or defense. The headings used in this document are for convenience only, and will have no effect on the interpretation or legal enforceability of the terms herein.
This Agreement shall be governed by, and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. You agree that ShareStack and the Service shall be deemed solely based in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over ShareStack, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Any dispute arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof, that the parties cannot resolve in good faith within thirty (30) days shall be directed to a binding arbitration administered by an arbiter, pursuant to the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration will take place in San Juan, Puerto Rico, with all expenses being shared equally by the parties. The arbiter must act in accordance with the substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and the rules of the AAA. The parties to this Agreement hereby agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement that cannot be otherwise submitted for arbitration. Nothing in this Section XVI shall be deemed as preventing ShareStack from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to protect any of ShareStack’s proprietary interests.
YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND SHARESTACK ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLANTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
