To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree that under no circumstances shall the Tomorrow Studios Parties be liable to you or anyone else for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special or consequential damages of any kind, including without limitation lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages, whether based on contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, that result from: (a) the Site or Site Content; (b) Unsolicited Submissions; (c) the use of, or the inability to use, the Site or Site Content; (d) action taken in connection with an investigation by the Tomorrow Studios Parties or law enforcement authorities regarding your use of the Site; (e) action taken in connection with copyright or other intellectual property owners; (f) any errors or omissions in the Site’s technical operation; (g) any damage that results from events beyond our reasonable control, such as damages to any user’s computer, mobile device, or other equipment or technology including, without limitation, damage from any security breach or from any virus, bugs, tampering, fraud, error, omission, interruption, defect, delay in operation or transmission, computer line or network failure or any other technical or other malfunction, including, without limitation, damages for lost profits, loss of good will, loss of data, work stoppage, accuracy of results, or computer failure or malfunction, even if foreseeable or even if the Tomorrow Studios Parties have been advised of or should have known of the possibility of such damages.

10. Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Tomorrow Studios Parties from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs, investigations, liabilities, judgments, settlements, and expenses, including (but not limited to) reasonable attorney’s fees, made by any third party, due to or, directly or indirectly, arising out of or directly or indirectly related to: (a) your breach of any of these Terms or anticipatory breach; (b) your content and materials, including (but not limited to) Unsolicited Submissions; (c) your use of the Site, Site Content, or Site features as permitted by us; (d) your violation of laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances, or orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authorities, including, without limitation, all administrative and legislative authorities or any agreement you have with a third-party; (e) information or material transmitted through your computer, even if not submitted by you, that infringes, violates or misappropriates any copyright, trademark, trade secret, trade dress, patent, publicity, privacy or other rights of any person; (f) any misrepresentation made by you; or (g) the Tomorrow Studios Parties’ use of your information as permitted under these Terms, the Privacy Policy, or any other written agreement between you and Tomorrow Studios.

The information and content provided through the Site are not intended for distribution to, or use by, any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject Tomorrow Studios to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country.

By downloading any software related to this Site, you represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of, any such country or on any such list.
12. Governing Law. You agree that these Terms and your use of our Site is governed by the laws of the State of California, USA, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
13. Arbitration/Class Action Waiver/Dispute Resolution Choice of Law. Any legal dispute between you and Tomorrow Studios LLC concerning or arising out of the Site, shall be resolved through binding individual arbitration. However, either you or Tomorrow Studios LLC may bring any individual claim in small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional and dollar limits that may apply, as long as it is brought and maintained as an individual claim.
How Arbitration Works. Disputes will be resolved solely by binding arbitration before a sole arbitrator under the streamlined Arbitration Rules Procedures of JAMS Inc. ("JAMS") or any successor to JAMS. In the event JAMS is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within fourteen (14) days of the filing of a "Demand for Arbitration", then either party can elect to have the arbitration administered by another mutually agreeable arbitration administration service who will hear the case. Unless you and Tomorrow Studios LLC agree otherwise, any arbitration hearing shall take place in the county of your residence. If you live outside the United States, any arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California. We encourage you to call in advance of filing a claim for arbitration to see if the dispute can be settled prior to arbitration.
Waiver of Right to Bring Class Action and Representative Claims. All arbitrations shall proceed on an individual basis. The arbitrator is empowered to resolve the dispute with the same remedies available in court, however, any relief must be individualized to you and shall not affect any other customer. You and Tomorrow Studios LLC also agree that each may bring claims against the other in arbitration only in your or their respective individual capacities and in so doing you and Tomorrow Studios LLC hereby waive the right to a trial by jury, to assert or participate in a class action lawsuit or class action arbitration, to assert or participate in a private attorney general lawsuit or private attorney general arbitration, and to assert or participate in any joint or consolidated lawsuit or joint or consolidated arbitration of any kind. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular cause of action, then that cause of action (and only that cause of action) must remain in court and be severed from any arbitration.
Arbitration Costs. Tomorrow Studios LLC will pay all filing, administrative, arbitrator and hearing costs and waives any rights it may have to recover an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses against you.
You and Tomorrow Studios LLC agree that, in the event that there are fifty (50) or more individual requests for arbitration of a similar nature filed against Tomorrow Studios LLC within an approximately thirty-day period (or otherwise in close proximity), JAMS will administer all such similarly situated arbitration demands on a collective basis as a single, consolidated arbitration (subject to a single set of fees, proceeding schedule, and, if required, hearing) before a single arbitrator in accordance with the requirements outlined elsewhere in this section, provided that – in the event that the arbitrator deems it impracticable or inequitable to administer all such claims collectively in a single arbitration – (s)he may group demands for arbitration into groups of not fewer than twenty (20) matters, plus a remainder group as needed (or as otherwise deemed by the arbitrator to be practicable, equitable, and in best keeping with the spirit of this provision) and arbitrate each group of matters as a single, consolidated arbitration (either structure a “Batch Arbitration”). You and Tomorrow Studios LLC agree (1) to work with JAMS in good faith to facilitate the resolution of disputes on a Batch Arbitration basis and (2) that requests for arbitration are of a “similar nature” if they arise out of the same event, agreement, or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. Disagreements over the applicability of this Batch Arbitration process will be settled in a single, consolidated arbitration proceeding that includes all affected parties and is resolved by a single arbitrator subject to the requirements of this section. This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class or collective arbitration or action of any kind, or any suit or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims, under any circumstances other than those expressly set forth in this section.
Other Terms & Information. This Arbitration Agreement shall be governed by, and interpreted, construed, and enforced in accordance with, the Federal Arbitration Act and other applicable federal law. To the extent state law applies to any aspect of these Terms, or to any disputes and claims that are covered by the Arbitration Agreement, the law of the State of California will govern. Except as set forth above, if any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it will not invalidate the remaining portions of the Arbitration Agreement.
14. Miscellaneous. If any of the provisions of these Terms are found unlawful, void, or unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction, then that provision will be considered severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the other provisions. These Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Site or in respect to the Site constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Site, superseding any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications and proposals, whether oral or written, between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms). If Tomorrow Studios does not act after you or others breach these Terms, it does not waive Tomorrow Studios’ right to act in the future with respect to such breach or any subsequent breaches. No waiver by Tomorrow Studios of any of these Terms will be of any force or effect unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized officer of Tomorrow Studios. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify these Terms. Tomorrow Studios may assign its rights and duties under these Terms to any party at any time without any notice to you. Terms may not be assigned by you without Tomorrow Studios’ prior written consent. You agree that these Terms will not be construed against Tomorrow Studios because Tomorrow Studios has drafted them. If a court or other decision-maker should determine that any provisions of these Terms is overbroad, unfair or unreasonable, such provision shall be given effect to the maximum extent possible by narrowing or enforcing in part that aspect of the provision found overbroad or unreasonable. The Section titles are inserted only as a matter of convenience and have no legal or contractual effect. Provisions of these Terms that would logically survive termination will survive the termination of these Terms, including (but not limited to) Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability.
15. Termination. The obligations and liabilities of the parties incurred prior to the termination date shall survive the termination of this agreement for all purposes. If in our sole judgment you fail, or we suspect that you have failed, to comply with any term or provision of these Terms, we may terminate this agreement at any time without notice and you will remain liable for all amounts, if any, due up to and including the date of termination; and/or accordingly may deny you access to our Site (or any part thereof). We also reserve the right to investigate suspected violations of these Terms, including, without limitation, any violation arising out of any emails you send to the Site or us. Any violation of these Terms may be referred to law enforcement authorities.
16. Permissions. If an activity is not expressly authorized by these Terms, then you do not have permission to do it. To request permission to access or use the Site or Site Content in a way that is not expressly authorized, for example, to link to the Site with a link that is not a plain-text link or use Site Content on your website, send an email to info@tomorrow-studio.com. You understand that we may not grant you permission.
17. Changes to Terms of Use. To the maximum extent allowed by applicable law, you agree that we may update, change, or replace these Terms at any time (“Updated Terms”) by posting the Updated Terms on the Site so that they are accessible via a link on the home page or otherwise and that if you use any of the Site (or do some other act that we reasonably specify) after we have posted the Updated Terms, you agree to them. The Updated Terms will take effect when posted unless a later date is specified and will apply to your use of the Site from that point forward. Therefore, you should periodically review these Terms before using the Site.
