For example, we may obtain our line and odds information from third parties. We do not independently verify their information. Line and odds may also contain subjective determination by third parties.

For the avoidance of doubt, You hereby assign over to Us (and automatically assign over to us in the future) all right, title and interest to all intellectual property rights described or disclosed in any suggestion, input, idea, or other submission by You relating to the Service; provided however that at no time shall We own any rights in Your Data. No rights are granted to You hereunder other than as expressly set forth herein, all of which are reserved.

5.1. Definition. As used herein, "Confidential Information" means all confidential information disclosed by a party ("Disclosing Party"), whether directly, or indirectly through others, to the other party ("Receiving Party"), whether orally or in writing, that is designated as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential given the nature of the information and/or the circumstances of disclosure. Your Confidential Information shall include Your Data; Our Confidential Information shall include the non-publicly available components of the Services; and Confidential Information of each party shall include the terms and conditions of this Agreement, as well as business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by such party. However, Confidential Information shall not include any information that (i) is or becomes generally known to the public without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (ii) was known to the Receiving Party prior to its disclosure by the Disclosing Party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, (iii) is received from a third party without breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party, or (iv) was independently developed by the Receiving Party. De-Identified Data is Our Confidential Information.
5.2. Protection of Confidential Information. Except as otherwise permitted in writing by the Disclosing Party or as set forth in the Privacy Policy, (i) the Receiving Party shall use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like kind (but in no event less than reasonable care) not to disclose or use any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party for any purpose outside the scope of this Agreement, and (ii) the Receiving Party shall limit access to Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to those of its employees, contractors and agents who need such access for purposes consistent with this Agreement and who have signed confidentiality agreements with the Receiving Party containing protections no less stringent than those herein.
5.3. Use of Your Data. We will not, except as permitted in the Privacy Policy or to provide the Services or prevent or address Service or technical problems, or at Your request in connection with customer support matters use, modify or disclose Your Data, except as compelled by law or in connection with any dispute.
5.4. Compelled Disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if it is compelled by law to do so, provided the Receiving Party gives the Disclosing Party prior notice of such compelled disclosure (to the extent legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party's cost, if the Disclosing Party wishes to contest the disclosure. If the Receiving Party is compelled by law to disclose the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party is not contesting the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for its reasonable cost of compiling and providing secure access to such Confidential Information.
Notwithstanding the above, Confidential Information may be transferred to a successor in interest by merger, sale of business or other change of control.
Our Service may include publicly available Data, that we store, process and configure for display or use. We make no claim to the raw, publicly available Data; however, our storage service, database schemas, and processing of such publicly available data are our Data and constitute our Confidential Information, except as expressly provided above.
6.1. Warranties. Each party represents and warrants that it has the legal power to enter into this Agreement.
6.2. Disclaimer. EXCEPT FOR THE EXPRESS REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES HEREIN, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT ANY OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND AND WE HEREBY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, TITLE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES ARISING UNDER ANY UNIFORM COMMERCIAL INFORMATION TRANSACTIONS ACT. THERE IS NO WARRANTY THAT ANY SERVICE INFORMATION, POSTINGS, CONTENT, EFFORTS, SERVICES, THE SERVICE OR ANY SYSTEM PROVIDED BY US WILL FULFILL ANY OF YOUR PARTICULAR PURPOSES OR NEEDS.
6.3. Our Service may provide information on potential profits and losses on wagers. This information is based upon our analysis of many dynamic inputs, which may include third party information, and may include subjective data analysis. While Our Service is designed to be as accurate as we can make it, these estimates are not guarantees and we are not liable for wagers that do not achieve potential profits, or that exceed losses, stated in Our Service. THEREFORE, WE CANNOT AND DO NOT GUARANTY THAT ANY WAGERS MADE USING INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE SERVICE WILL BE SUCCESSFUL, GENERATE A PAYMENT IN EXCESS OF THE AMOUNT WAGERED, OR SUFFER A LOSS LESS THAN ESTIMATED.
6.4. Our Service may include simulators, game theory applications, and other functionality that attempts to determine a future outcome based on dynamic data inputs and conditions, and we may allow those data inputs and conditions to be modified by users to see the effect of such changes. These tools are made available for our users to do their own analysis, and the results they display are not guaranteed. If we display results of past performances and pre-performance predictive determinations, they are provided to show the past predictive performance of the Service, but such performance is dynamic and therefore such future results are not guaranteed.
In addition to any other indemnity provided herein, You hereby covenant to indemnify, defend and hold Us (and our members, owners, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and other persons acting on Our behalf) harmless from and against any claim made or brought against Us by a third-party (including by any government agency or instrumentality): (i) alleging that Your Data or any Third Party Data You provide to us or Your use of the Services, are in violation of this Agreement, infringe or misappropriate the intellectual property or other personal or corporate rights of a third party or violates applicable law, rules, regulations or orders; (ii) arising from Your (or Your agents, affiliates, or other persons who act on Your behalf) negligent or intentional action or omission, breach of this Agreement, or failure to comply with applicable law, rules, regulations or orders. Without limiting the foregoing, You shall indemnify Us for any damages finally awarded against, and for reasonable attorney's fees incurred by, Us (and our members, owners, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and other persons acting on Our behalf) in connection with any such claim. We shall endeavor to give You prompt written notice of any claim that is indemnified hereunder, and reasonably cooperate with Your resolution of such claim.
In the event a third party makes a claim that the Service infringes its intellectual property or other rights, You shall give Us prompt written notice of such claim. Provided that such claim does not arise from Your Data or Your misuse of the Service or other act or omission, We shall have the right to among other actions, seek a license, resolve, provide a design-around, or otherwise make modifications to avoid such infringement or other rights claim. In Our discretion if We determine that the above actions are commercially infeasible, in addition to any other rights herein, we may immediately terminate this Agreement or the applicable portion of the Services that is alleged to cause the infringement or otherwise violate third party rights. Our obligation herein is limited to either providing a non-infringing replacement of the Services or termination of this Agreement - which remedies are Your exclusive remedies in the event of a third-party claim that the Service infringes their intellectual property or other rights.
IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EXCEED $100. IF APPLICABLE LAW LIMITS OUR RIGHT TO LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU, THEN THIS LIMITATION SHALL BE EFFECTIVE ONLY TO THE EXTENT AND IN THE LOWEST AMOUNT THAT WE ARE PERMITTED TO LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU.
IN NO EVENT SHALL WE HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO YOU, YOUR AFFILIATES, OR ANY OTHER PERSON WHO USED OUR SERVICE WITH YOUR ACCESS RIGHTS FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR LOST REVENUES OR FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, COVER OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES HOWEVER CAUSED, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, WHETHER ARISING HEREUNDER OR UNDER OTHER APPLICABLE LAW, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
You agree that your sole remedy in the event You have any claim against Us in respect of the provision of the Service is for us to repair, replace or otherwise correct such Service to meet the warranty provided for herein; under no circumstances will We be liable to You in such cases for any damages, costs or fees of any kind, including but not limited to actual, compensatory, direct, incidental, punitive or consequential damages, whether or not occasioned by Our negligence. If this provision is determined to have failed of its essential purpose or is otherwise deemed or determined to be unenforceable, You agree that this provision is an independent limitation from all other limitations of remedies herein, and all such other limitations on remedy, including but not limited to those in Sections 8.1 and 8.2 shall survive and remain applicable to any claim You make, including but not limited to any claim that We failed to provide an effective repair, replacement or re-performance of services.
Unless another written or electronic agreement exists between You and Us that states a different provision, the Term of this Agreement may be terminated by either You or Us by notice to the other party, which notice may be by electronic mail or other reasonable means.
If We determine that Your use or actions are causing or likely to cause material and imminent damage to Us, to our infrastructure or to our ability to provide the Service, or are in violation of applicable law, rules, regulations or orders, We may also suspend Your access to the Service immediately without notice. We shall endeavor in subjective good faith to give You notice if We take this emergency action, and to restore the Services as soon as the issue that caused such suspension is resolved, in Our discretion.
Upon Your account termination We may immediately permanently delete Your Data. The Service is not a backup service and You should store copies of Your Data in other locations.
All provisions that by their nature should survive the end of the Term shall so survive, including at least Sections 3 - 5, 6.2, and 7 - 11.
If We provide You with a login or the ability to create an account, We reserve the right, but not the obligation to permanently delete any account You have created that has been suspended or terminated for more than 30 days, or that has not been used in 60 days. PLEASE NOTE: All of Your Data and Third Party Data associated with an account will be deleted when the account is deleted, and except for any audit trail that we deem necessary to resolve any dispute, We do not retain backups or any method of restoring deleted accounts, and We are not liable in any manner for any data loss resulting from our deletion of terminated or suspended accounts.
This contract will be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland, exclusive of its conflicts of laws provisions. The parties agree that the Uniform Commercial Code, the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and any Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act shall not apply between us.
EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR LITIGATION IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT.
10.3.1. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, except with respect to actions for equitable relief, which claim may be filed directly in a federal or state court in Maryland (each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such court for such purposes), any other dispute between the parties to this Agreement, whether arising in tort, contract, pursuant to a right under statute, rule or regulation, and including any claim that may be subject to a class action, shall be settled by binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules ("Rules") of the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA"), and such arbitration shall be held by electronic/remote means (i.e. videoconference, audio conference) as much as possible, unless otherwise determined by the Arbitrator, provided that if a live hearing must take place, then such hearing shall take place in Maryland.
10.3.2. Any dispute properly submitted for arbitration shall be referred to one arbitrator in an arbitration administered by the AAA, according to the following procedures: The party or parties submitting ("Submitting Party") the intention to arbitrate (the "Submission") shall nominate one arbitrator. If within 20 days of receipt of the Submission, the party or parties receiving the Submission ("Answering Party") does not agree on such arbitrator, then the arbitrator shall be appointed by the AAA in accordance with the Rules unless the parties can agree on an arbitrator. The parties agree that they shall consent to an expedited proceeding under the Rules, to the full extent the AAA can accommodate such a request.
10.3.3. The ruling of the arbitrator shall be binding and conclusive upon all parties hereto and any other person or entity with an interest in the matter, and the arbitrator shall have the authority to direct the parties to make payments, withdrawals and distributions with the results of arbitration.
10.3.4. The arbitration provision set forth in this Agreement shall be a complete defense to any suit, action or other proceeding instituted in any court regarding any controversy or claim (except as provided for above for claims permitted to be filed directly in court, but including, without limitation, whether any controversy or claim is subject to arbitration) arising out of or relating to any said disputes to be arbitrated hereunder between the parties; provided, however, that (A) any of the parties to the arbitration may request a federal or state court in West Virginia (and each of the parties hereto irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such court for such purposes) to provide interim injunctive relief in aid of arbitration hereunder or to prevent a violation of this Agreement pending arbitration hereunder (and any such request shall not be deemed a waiver of the obligations to arbitrate set forth in this Agreement), (B) any ruling on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered as a final judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction anywhere in the United States and (C) application may be made by a party to any court of competent jurisdiction wherever situated for enforcement of any such final judgment and the entry of whatever orders are necessary for such enforcement.
10.3.5. In any proceeding with respect hereto, all direct, reasonable and out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, AAA administration fees, arbitrator fees, expert witness fees, and attorneys' fees) incurred by the parties to the proceeding shall, at the conclusion of the proceeding, be paid by the party incurring the same; however, the arbitrator may award payment of all or any portion of any such fees and expenses to the prevailing party in arbitration, or on the basis of any obstreperous or excessive litigation tactics. Notwithstanding the above, if We are the substantially prevailing party, then the Arbitrator shall award Us our fees as provided in Section 11.6.
10.3.6. The arbitrator shall have power to permit reasonable discovery using subpoenas and other regular procedures and the parties shall cooperate in such discovery and not unduly multiply the proceedings, make duplicative or unnecessary requests or otherwise cause undue expense. The arbitrator shall have the power to sanction any party that violates the arbitrator's rules or orders, which sanctions may include payment of fees and costs incurred by the other party, up to and including dismissal and/or default judgment.
The Service is not for export and may not be used or exported outside of the United States. If We agree in writing with You in a separate Agreement, You may use the Service from a remote non U.S. jurisdiction, provided that You covenant to comply with the export laws and regulations of the United States and other applicable jurisdictions in providing and using the Services.
This Agreement does not create a partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, fiduciary or employment relationship between the parties.
There are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement, intended or implied.
No failure or delay by either party in exercising any right under this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of that right. Other than as expressly stated herein, the remedies provided herein are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any other remedies of a party at law or in equity.
If any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law, the provision shall be modified by the court and interpreted so as best to accomplish the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in effect.
If we are required to enforce this Agreement and we substantially prevail in such action, You shall pay on demand all reasonable costs We incurred in such effort, where "costs" shall include Our reasonable attorneys' and other professionals' fees. You further agree that this covenant shall survive any judgment and this duty and obligation to pay "costs" shall continue until full collection of the judgment, including but not limited to all appeals of any decision.
You may not assign any of Your rights or obligations hereunder, whether by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Us (not to be unreasonably withheld). We may assign this Agreement at any time, to any person. Any assignment by a party in violation of this provision is void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Unless You and We have entered into a separate written and signed agreement that states otherwise, this Agreement, including all exhibits, documents incorporated by reference, and addenda hereto, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals or representations, written or oral, concerning its subject matter. However, to the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions in the body of this Agreement and any exhibit or addendum hereto, the terms of such exhibit, addendum shall prevail. No employee, agent or other person associated with Us has the right or power to amend, waive or otherwise orally modify this Agreement.
We may add to, remove or otherwise change or modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement at any time by giving notice on the Service and such notice may be provided at the time You login, or via a textual notice appearing on the Service that terms have changed, or via email or other reasonable means. Your continued use of the Service after we make any changes to this Agreement constitutes Your acceptance and agreement to such changes. If You do not agree to such changes You must notify Us promptly upon learning of such changes (in no event less than 3 business days after they are posted and We have provided notice) and cease using the Services. If You timely object to the new Agreement as provided above, then such objection shall constitute a termination of this Agreement for Your convenience and the new Agreement terms shall not apply to You.
You and We have had the opportunity to consult with, review and negotiate the terms and provisions of this Agreement and use of the Service, and neither party shall therefore be subject to any adverse construction rule as the draftsperson of the Agreement.
You agree to transact business with Us using electronic communications, either via web forms on the Service, or via email. Electronic communications will be deemed received by You when Your electronic communication system reports that any electronic communication We send You has been received by Your system, regardless of whether You ever actually open or read such electronic communication. We may, but are not required, to use return receipt requests. Unless specifically required by applicable law or as otherwise provided herein, You consent to receive all notices, information, and other communications from Us concerning any subject matter, via electronic communication. It is Your responsibility to maintain valid electronic communication addresses, and to review the Services messages, and We may terminate Your access to the Service without liability to You if, after We give You reasonable prior notice, You fail to update and maintain Your electronic communication addresses.
We may add, change, discontinue, remove or suspend any and/or all Services, including features and specifications of products described or depicted on the Service, temporarily or permanently, at any time, without notice and without liability.
Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, all notices, permissions and approvals hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given upon: (i) personal delivery, (ii) the second business day after mailing, or (iii) the first business day after sending by email (provided email shall not be sufficient for notices of termination of this Agreement or a claim for indemnification unless the party receiving such email acknowledges receipt). Notices to You shall be addressed to the system administrator designated by You for Your relevant Services account, and in the case of billing-related notices, to the relevant billing contact designated by You.
