Terms and Conditions

Content License
When you give us content (e.g., a personal video tape of you or another individual swimming or doing aquatic activities), you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) right to exercise the copyright, publicity, and database rights you have in the content, in any media known now or in the future. We need these rights to host and display your customized animation.

Liability
You will not hold www.virtual-swim.com responsible for other users' actions or inactions, including things they post. You acknowledge that we are not a traditional web site. Instead, www.virtual-swim.com is a venue to allow anyone to view, post, compare, analyze, learn, instruct and enjoy customized animation of individuals swimming and doing aquatic activities, at anytime, from anywhere, in a variety of pricing formats. We have no control over and do not guarantee the quality or legality of the content that we receive from our customers (e.g., video tape).

We do not transfer legal ownership of the customized animations to you, and nothing in this agreement shall modify the governing provisions of California Commercial Code ¤ 2401(2) and Uniform Commercial Code ¤ 2-401(2), under which legal ownership of an item is transferred upon physical delivery of the item to the buyer by the seller. That is, we post your customized animation on www.virtual-swim.com so we can freely view your animation at any time from any online access point. However, we cannot guarantee continuous or secure access to our services, and operation of our web site may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control. Accordingly, to the extent legally permitted, we exclude all implied warranties, terms and conditions. We are not liable for any loss of money, goodwill, or reputation, or any special, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of your use of our web site. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you.

Regardless of the previous paragraph, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or to any third party is limited to the greater of (a) the total fees you paid to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability, and (b) $100.

Release
If you have a dispute with one or more users, you release us (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code ¤1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."

Resolution of Disputes

Before resorting to these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly via email. We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation or arbitration, as alternatives to litigation.

  • Law and Forum for Disputes - This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State of California as they apply to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within California between California residents, without regard to conflict of law provisions. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against www.virtual-swim.com must be resolved by a court located in Orange County, California, except as otherwise agreed by the parties or as described in the Arbitration Option paragraph below.

  • Arbitration Option - For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event a party elects arbitration, they shall initiate such arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution ("ADR") provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: a) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and c) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
  • Improperly Filed Claims - All claims you bring against www.virtual-swim.com must be resolved in accordance with this Resolution of Disputes Section.
