8. Complaints / Law Enforcement Contact. To resolve a complaint regarding the Site or a Service, you contact LDM through its “Contact Us” link on the Site located HERE. Law enforcement officials may send correspondence (such as subpoenas, court orders and warrants) to LDM at its physical office address provided at the beginning of this Agreement.

 

9. Communication and Privacy. LDM requires Registered Users to provide email and telephone information to participate in Services and to use the Site. LDM may use your email address to send you messages notifying you of important changes to the Services or special offers. Further, LDM may contact you by telephone, in order to communicate with you regarding the Services. If you do not want to receive such email messages or telephone calls (including at any wireless number you may have voluntarily provided us), please refer to our Privacy Statement to review your options.

 

10. Term and Termination. This Agreement will become effective upon your acceptance of the Agreement by your use of the Site or the Services and will remain in effect in perpetuity unless terminated hereunder.

11. Arbitration.

 

a. Arbitration of Disputes. You and LDM agree that any disputes arising out of or related to the Site, the Services, this Agreement and/or any policies or practices of LDM (a “Dispute”) will be subject to FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION as set forth in this section, and may only be resolved through an individual arbitration governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. The only exceptions to this agreement to arbitrate Disputes are claims of infringement or misappropriation of LDM’s copyright, patent, trade secret, trademark, service mark, trade dress or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, which LDM may elect to have resolved by means other than arbitration. Notwithstanding the above, LDM is always interested in attempting to resolve any Disputes by amicable and informal means, and LDM encourages you to contact us before resorting to arbitration. YOU AND LDM AGREE THAT WE ARE EACH GIVING UP OUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT in connection with any Dispute and that our rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY.

 

b. No Class Actions. YOU AND LDM ACKNOWLEDGE THAT NEITHER OF US WILL BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE WITH THE OTHER PARTY.  Further, neither you nor LDM agrees to class arbitration or any arbitration where a person brings a dispute as a representative of other person(s).

 

c. Arbitration Procedure. If the parties are unable to resolve a Dispute by informal means, the arbitration of Disputes will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), a non-profit organization not affiliated with LDM, in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and if deemed appropriate by the arbitrator, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes.

 

d. Enforcement.  Any proceeding to enforce this arbitration agreement may be brought in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

e. Limitation of Time Period to Commence a Dispute.  Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any Dispute must be filed within one (1) year after the date in which the incident giving rise to the Dispute occurred. Failure to file an arbitration claim as described above within the applicable limitations period constitutes a waiver of such claim and serves as complete bar to any claim based on any Dispute.

 

12. General Provisions.

 

a. Right to Seek Injunction. Violation of this Agreement may cause LDM irreparable harm, and therefore agree that LDM will be entitled to seek extraordinary relief in court, including but not limited to temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions without the necessity of posting a bond or other security, in addition to and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that LDM may have for a breach of this Agreement.

 

b. Miscellaneous. This Agreement, which you accept upon use of the Site or registration of Services, the Privacy Statement located on the Site, and any applicable payment, renewal, additional Services terms, comprise the entire agreement between you and LDM regarding the use of the Site and Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and LDM related to your use of this Site or Services (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of this Agreement). Unless otherwise explicitly stated, the Agreement will survive termination of your registration to the Service.  The failure of LDM to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement will continue in full force and effect. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

 

Revision Date. This Agreement was last revised on April 14, 2024
