If you are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a business or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to this Agreement, in which case the terms "User", "you" or "your" shall refer to such entity. If you do not have such authority, or if you do not agree with the terms of this Agreement, you must not accept this Agreement and may not access and use the Website and Services. You acknowledge that this Agreement is a contract between you and Brick Me, even though it is electronic and is not physically signed by you, and it governs your use of the Website and Services.

Certain categories of Personal Information (as defined in our Privacy Policy) are subject to special protections under Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 (General Data Protection Regulation, hereafter "GDPR"). These include Personal Information relating to among others, a person's racial origin, religious beliefs, health, sexual orientation, listed in Article 9 of the GDPR ("Special Categories of Data") and Personal Information related to children (together with Special Categories of Data, "Sensitive Data"). You hereby represent and warrant that you will not add any Images that contain Sensitive Data unless you have obtained explicit consent if and as required under applicable law from the relevant individual (including Parental Consent if and as required) and that you shall be solely responsible and liable for any such Sensitive Data, including in the event of any data breach relating to the Services.

If you create an account on the Website, you are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and you are fully responsible for all activities that occur under the account and any other actions taken in connection with it. We may, but have no obligation to, monitor and review new accounts before you may sign in and start using the Services. Providing false contact information of any kind may result in the termination of your account. You must immediately notify us of any unauthorized uses of your account or any other breaches of security. We will not be liable for any acts or omissions by you, including any damages of any kind incurred as a result of such acts or omissions. We may suspend, disable, or delete your account (or any part thereof) if we determine that you have violated any provision of this Agreement or that your conduct or content would tend to damage our reputation and goodwill. If we delete your account for the foregoing reasons, you may not re-register for our Services. We may block your email address and Internet protocol address to prevent further registration.

The Website may allow you to upload certain content including but not limited to Images and photos. All content uploaded by you is referred to as "User Content." User Content may include Sensitive Data. You are and shall remain at all times fully and solely responsible for any User Content you upload to the Website. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT ANY SUCH USER CONTENT COMPLIES WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAW, THAT YOU HAVE ALL NECESSARY RIGHTS AND AUTHORITIES TO SUBMIT ANY SUCH USER CONTENT THROUGH THE WEBSITE AND SERVICES, AND THAT NO SUCH USER CONTENT INFRINGES OR VIOLATES ANY THIRD PARTY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, PRIVACY OR PUBLICITY RIGHTS, OR MORAL RIGHTS.

WE DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, FOR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF USERS (INCLUDING UNAUTHORIZED USERS), WHETHER SUCH ACTS OR OMISSIONS OCCUR DURING THE USE OF THE SERVICE OR OTHERWISE.

Brick Me may retain the User Content, including Images (including in your account as your order history) as long as your account is valid and has not been terminated by you or by us, for any reason. You may ask us to delete any User Content, including Images, by sending us an email, specifying your request, as detailed in our Privacy Policy.

This Agreement does not transfer to you any intellectual property owned by Brick Me or third parties, and all rights, titles, and interests in and to such property will remain (as between the parties) solely with Brick Me. All trademarks, service marks, graphics and logos used in connection with the Website and Services, are trademarks or registered trademarks of Brick Me or its licensors. Other trademarks, service marks, graphics and logos used in connection with the Website and Services may be the trademarks of other third parties. Your use of the Website and Services grants you no right or license to reproduce or otherwise use any of Brick Me or third party trademarks.

Copyright

The policy of Brick Me is not to infringe upon or violate the intellectual property rights or other rights of any third party, and Brick Me will refuse to use and remove any User Content in connection with the Website that infringes the rights of any third party. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA"), Brick Me will remove any Content (including without limitation any User Content) if properly notified of that such material infringes third party rights, and may do so at its sole discretion, without prior notice to users at any time. The policy of Brick Me is to terminate the accounts of repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.

You are in the best position to judge whether User Content is in violation of intellectual property or personal rights of any third-party. You accept full responsibility for avoiding infringement of the intellectual property or personal rights of others in connection with User Content.

If you believe that something appearing on the Website infringes your copyright, you may send us a notice requesting that it be removed, or access to it blocked. If you believe that such a notice has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA lets you send us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the DMCA’s requirements. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Be aware that there can be substantial penalties for false claims. Send notices and counter-notices to us by contacting hello@brick.me.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in no event will Brick Me, its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, suppliers or licensors be liable to any person for any indirect, incidental, special, punitive, cover or consequential damages (including, without limitation, damages for lost profits, revenue, sales, goodwill, use of content, impact on business, business interruption, loss of anticipated savings, loss of business opportunity) however caused, under any theory of liability, including, without limitation, contract, tort, warranty, breach of statutory duty, negligence or otherwise, even if the liable party has been advised as to the possibility of such damages or could have foreseen such damages.

Severability

All rights and restrictions contained in this Agreement may be exercised and shall be applicable and binding only to the extent that they do not violate any applicable laws and are intended to be limited to the extent necessary so that they will not render this Agreement illegal, invalid or unenforceable.
