4. Virtual Items and Game Play

 

In the course of using the Service you may win, earn or alternatively purchase, with real-world money, certain game credits or prizes, virtual play money coins, tokens, points and virtual in-game items ("Virtual Items").

 

You are not obligated, at any time, to purchase any Virtual Items.  You understand that you have no right or title in the Virtual Items appearing or originating in any Game, whether "earned" in a game or "purchased", or in any other attributes associated with an Account or stored on the Service. Virtual Items are licensed to you by us for your personal use in the game. You may not transfer, purchase or sell Virtual Items outside the Service, or attempt to sell in the "real world" anything that appears or originates in the Service at any time. Any such attempted sale shall be null and void and may result in termination of your Account and legal action taken against you. You may trade Virtual Items within a Game, but only where expressly permitted by Game rules and never for any real-money consideration. Other than a limited, personal, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable license to use the Virtual Items with the Service, you have no right or title in or to any such Virtual Items. We retain the right to manage, regulate, control, modify and delete Virtual Items at our sole discretion, and we shall have no liability to you or anyone for the exercise of such rights. We may selectively remove or revoke your license to use or associate Virtual Items with your Account without notice at our sole discretion. Prices and availability of Virtual Items are subject to change without notice.

 

Virtual Items may only be held by legal residents of jurisdictions where access to and use of the Games are permitted. Virtual Items may only be purchased or acquired from us through the applicable Platform (such as Google Play Store or Apple App Store). We reserve the right to refuse your request to purchase or acquire Virtual Items for any reason. When you purchase Virtual Items, they will reside in your Account until discharged through use of the Service, unless removed or revoked by us.

 

Depending on your Platform, any Virtual Item purchased from your Platform will be subject to its terms and conditions and user agreement of such Platform. Usage rights for each purchase may differ from item to item. If you are unsure about usage rights you should check with your Platform before making a purchase.

 

When purchasing Virtual Items, you agree to pay the applicable charges for your purchase, including applicable taxes, through the applicable store. If your transaction with our payment processing partners is not successful then your purchase will not be fulfilled. Upon the completion of a successful payment transaction then your purchase will be fulfilled to you as soon as possible – we will endeavor to fulfill your order immediately at the point of purchase.

 

If you do not connect the Games on a device to your Account (directly or through your social network account), then we will not be able to restore any Virtual Items (whether purchased by, or otherwise credited or awarded to you) or other data associated with your Game play to a different device (including if you lose that device or it is damaged). We will not be liable for any loss or deletion of Virtual Items, whether purchased by you or granted by us without making a purchase, or of any data associated with your play of the Games, from a device not connected to an account.

 

5. Refunds for Purchases of Virtual Items and Billing Discrepancies

 

Purchases of Virtual Items are final and are not refundable, transferable or exchangeable unless stated otherwise at our discretion.  Requests for refunds should be made to the Platform through which they were purchased.

 

Purchases made through a Platform are additionally subject to Platform rules governing refunds and returns. 

 

 

 

6. Rewards

 

Virtual Items that you are awarded without purchase (“Rewards”) will expire if not collected within 7 days. Rewards are generally collected automatically once awarded unless the User stops collection from occurring. If any special or affirmative action is required to collect a Reward, the User will be so advised.

 

7. Subscription Services

 

Certain Games may be offered on a subscription basis. You will be advised of the price, duration and all applicable terms before purchase. You will be informed of the amount and date of the upcoming renewal payment both within the relevant Game and within the respective store account You can cancel your subscription by following the instructions within the Game. Unless otherwise stated, cancellations will take effect at the end of the then-current term.

If your Country of Residence (as defined below) is the United States the agreement to arbitrate contained in Section 21, its scope and its enforcement shall also be governed by the United States Federal Arbitration Act without regard to conflict- or choice-of-law principles. If your Country of Residence is in the European Economic Area, Switzerland or the United Kingdom, you also have rights protecting you under the mandatory provisions of the law applicable in your Country of Residence, and no provision in Sections 20 and 21 shall exclude or restrict any of your statutory rights you may have as a consumer that are not permitted to be so excluded or restricted.

 

In the event that you have opted out of arbitration (as set out below) or that the agreement to arbitrate is otherwise found not to apply to you or your claim, you and Clever Duck agree that any judicial proceeding may only be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Israel. Both you and Clever Duck consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and Clever Duck may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction (i) to compel arbitration pursuant to Section 21 below, (ii) to enforce an arbitral award issued thereunder, or (iii) as expressly set out in Section 21(h).

 

"Country of Residence" for purposes of Sections 20 and 21 means the country in which you hold citizenship or legal permanent residence, as well as any country from which you regularly access and use the Service. If more than one country meets that definition for you, then your country of citizenship or legal permanent residence shall be your Country of Residence, and if you have more than one country of citizenship or legal permanent residence, it shall be the country with which you most closely are associated by permanent or most frequent residence.

 

21. Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate on an Individual Basis

 

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION 21 CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND Clever Duck TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU AND Clever Duck CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER.

 

By agreeing to these Terms, you and Clever Duck agree that any and all past, present and future disputes, claims or causes of action between you and Clever Duck arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, the formation of these Terms or any other dispute between you and Clever Duck or any of Clever Duck's licensors, distributors, suppliers or agents (including but not limited to any application store or platform from which the Service is accessed or downloaded), and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this Section 21, (collectively, "Dispute(s)") will be governed by the procedure outlined below. You and Clever Duck further agree that any arbitration pursuant to this Section 21 shall not proceed as a class, group or representative action.

 

(a) Informal Dispute Resolution. The parties shall first attempt to resolve any Dispute informally for at least 60 days before initiating arbitration. The informal negotiations begin upon the sending of a properly addressed written notice from one party to the other ("Notice of Dispute"). The Notice of Dispute must: (i) include the full name and contact information of the complaining party; (ii) include additional information to identify the complaining party and the relevant player's Account(s), including email address(es) used to establish your Account(s), Device ID; (iii) describe the nature and basis of the Dispute; and (iii) set forth the specific relief sought. Clever Duck will send its Notice of Dispute to your postal or email address. The Notice of Dispute to Clever Duck shall be sent to info@cleverduck.co. If a Dispute is not resolved within 60 days after the Notice of Dispute is sent, you or Clever Duck may initiate an arbitration proceeding as described below. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

 

(b) We Both Agree To Arbitrate. By agreeing to these Terms, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you and Clever Duck each and both agree to resolve any Disputes – including any Dispute concerning the enforceability, validity, scope or severability of this agreement to arbitrate – through final and binding arbitration as discussed herein.

 

(c) Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You may decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting info@cleverduck.co within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and stating that you decline this arbitration agreement. You must include your name, email address, postal address and device ID and you must personally hand-sign and date your notice. You can attach the notice to your email as a pdf, photograph or by any other means that clearly displays the required information and demonstrates that you have complied with these requirements. By opting out of the agreement to arbitrate, you will not be precluded from using the Service, but you and Clever Duck will not be permitted to invoke the mutual agreement to arbitrate to resolve Disputes under the Terms otherwise provided herein. For avoidance of doubt, in the event you exercise your right to opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, those limitations and restrictions applicable to litigation that are set out in Section 20 and subsections (a) and (g) of this Section 21 shall continue to apply to you. In addition, if you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate and at the time of your receipt of these Terms you were bound by an existing agreement to arbitrate disputes arising out of or related to your use of or access to the Service, that existing arbitration agreement (but not the remainder of those prior Terms) will remain in full force and effect. In other words, if you are bound by an agreement to arbitrate at the time you opt out of this one, that prior agreement to arbitrate will continue to apply to you. The remainder of these Terms (aside from this Section 21) shall supersede the prior version.

 

(d) Arbitration Procedures and Fees.

 

(d.1) If your Country of Residence is the United States, you and Clever Duck agree that JAMS ("JAMS") will administer the arbitration under its Streamlined Rules in effect at the time arbitration is sought ("JAMS Rules"). Those rules are available at www.jamsadr.com. Arbitration will proceed on an individual basis and will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules; provided that the parties shall be presented with a list of five potential arbitrators and shall rank those potential arbitrators in order of preference. Each party may strike any and all potential arbitrators on the list. JAMS shall select the arbitrator with the highest combined preference (e.g., if both parties select a potential arbitrator as their top preference, that arbitrator will be selected). If no arbitrator appears on both parties' lists, JAMS shall prepare another list comprised of five additional potential arbitrators. That process shall continue until an arbitrator is selected. You and Clever Duck further agree that, unless and only to the extent prohibited under JAMS Rules, the arbitration will be held in New York, New York, or, at either your or our election, will be conducted telephonically or via other remote electronic means. The JAMS Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award any remedies, including injunctive relief, that would be available to you in an individual lawsuit and that are not waivable under applicable law.

 

(d.2) If your Country of Residence is not the United States, you and Clever Duck agree that the Center of Arbitration and Dispute Resolution (https://www.cadr.co.il/ ("CADR") will administer the arbitration, which shall be conducted in accordance with its rules in effect at the time arbitration is sought, and in accordance with the Israeli Arbitration Law, 5728-1968, as amended. Arbitration will proceed on an individual basis and will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules. You and Clever Duck further agree that the arbitration will be held in English and in Tel Aviv-Jaffa (Israel), or, if you so elect, all proceedings can be conducted telephonically or via other remote electronic means. The CADR rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees.

 

(d.3) All arbitration proceedings and resulting awards conducted pursuant to Section 21 shall be confidential. Any such award may not be disclosed to third parties other than to a party's legal, accounting or financial advisors (each of whom shall be subject to that same confidentiality obligation) except (i) by either party in support of its pursuit or defense of its legal rights or obligations in another litigation or arbitration (whether involving the same or different parties), (ii) to the extent disclosed in connection with a petition or motion to confirm, enforce or recognize the award or (iii) otherwise as required or permitted by applicable law.

 

(e) Appeals. You and Clever Duck agree that any award issued by an arbitrator pursuant to this Section 21 may be appealed in accordance with the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedures at either party's election.

 

(f) Mass Arbitration. To increase efficiency of resolution, in the event 25 or more similar arbitration demands against Clever Duck, presented by or with the assistance of the same law firm or organization or group of law firms or organizations acting together, are submitted to JAMS, the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines ("JAMS Mass Rules") shall apply. In such event, the JAMS Process Administrator (as described in the JAMS Mass Rules) shall have the authority to implement the procedures set forth in the JAMS Mass Rules, including the authority to batch together individual arbitration demands into a single coordinated proceeding. Arbitrators and the JAMS Process Administrator appointed in accordance with this Section 21(f) must be retired judges with experience arbitrating or mediating disputes. All provisions of this Section 21 that are not in conflict with the JAMS Mass Rules, including the appointment process for the arbitrators, shall continue to apply.

 

(g) Class Action and Collective Arbitration Waiver. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW (AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTION 21(f)), NEITHER YOU NOR Clever Duck SHALL BE ENTITLED TO CONSOLIDATE, JOIN OR COORDINATE DISPUTES BY OR AGAINST OTHER INDIVIDUALS OR ENTITIES; TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY GROUP, CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR MASS ARBITRATION OR LITIGATION; TO ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, INCLUDING AS A REPRESENTATIVE MEMBER OF A CLASS; TO ARBITRATE OR LITIGATE ANY DISPUTE IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY; OR OTHERWISE TO SEEK RECOVERY OF LOSSES OR DAMAGES (WHETHER FOR YOURSELF OR OTHERS) INCURRED BY A THIRD PARTY. IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE (AS DEFINED ABOVE), ANY AND ALL SUCH RIGHTS ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVED. ANY CHALLENGE TO THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS SECTION 21(g) SHALL BE DETERMINED EXCLUSIVELY BY THE ARBITRATOR. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS, IN THE EVENT ALL OR ANY PORTION OF SUBSECTIONS (e), (f) OR (g) OF THIS SECTION 21 ARE FOUND TO BE INVALID OR LESS THAN FULLY ENFORCEABLE IN A PARTICULAR DISPUTE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THE PARTIES' AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE (BUT NOT THOSE LIMITATIONS AND RESTRICTIONS APPLICABLE TO LITIGATION THAT ARE SET OUT IN SECTION 20 AND SUBSECTIONS (a) AND (g) OF THIS SECTION 21 MAY BE DEEMED VOID AND AS HAVING NO EFFECT FOR PURPOSES OF THAT DISPUTE, UPON EITHER PARTY'S ELECTION.

 

(h) Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 21, either you or Clever Duck may bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Israel, for temporary injunctive relief but only to the extent necessary to prevent irreparable harm and only until an arbitrator has been empaneled and can determine whether to continue, terminate or modify such relief. The party seeking the injunctive relief shall bear the burden of demonstrating that the alleged harm is irreparable and that timely recourse to an arbitrator is not possible. Additionally:

 

(h.1) If your Country of Residence is the United Kingdom, Switzerland or in the European Economic Area, notwithstanding your and Clever Duck's agreement to arbitrate Disputes, either you or Clever Duck also may assert claims, if they qualify, through the small claims process in the courts of your Country of Residence. If your Country of Residence is in the European Economic Area, you may also seek to use the Online Dispute Resolution platform offered by the European Commission https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/ but Clever Duck is not required to agree to use this or any other alternative dispute resolution platform.

 

(h.2) If your Country of Residence is not the United States, the United Kingdom, Switzerland or in the European Economic Area, notwithstanding your and Clever Duck's agreement to arbitrate Disputes, either you or Clever Duck may also assert claims, if they qualify, through the Small Claims Court in Tel Aviv-Jaffa, Israel, or if a court in your Country of Residence would not recognize such a requirement (notwithstanding the provisions of this Section), then in a small claims court or the equivalent in your Country of Residence.
