Copyright and Trademark Infringements

You may have heard of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”), as it relates to online service providers, such as LaMetric, being asked to remove content that allegedly violates someone's copyright. While the DMCA itself only applies to copyrights, LaMetric also extends its DMCA policy below to allegations of trademark infringement. As an online service provider under the DMCA, LaMetric respects the intellectual property rights of others, and we ask you to do the same. LaMetric may, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, terminate service and/or access to the Site(s) for users who infringe the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that your work is the subject of copyright or trademark infringement and appears on our Site(s), please provide LaMetric's designated agent the following information:

A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
Identification of the copyrighted or trademarked work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works at a single online Site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that Site;
Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled at the Site, and information reasonably sufficient to permit LaMetric to locate the material;
Information reasonably sufficient to permit LaMetric to contact you as the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which you may be contacted;
A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright and/or trademark owner, its agent, or the law; and
A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration Provision.

Definitions. As used in this Arbitration Provision, the terms “LaMetric,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer toSmart Atoms Limited, including its subsidiaries and agents; the terms “you” and “your” refer to you as an individual as well as other individuals you allow to access or use the Products, and any legal entity you control, work for, or represent when you access or use the Products. The word “Products” means your access to and/or use of any LaMetric website, advertisement or promotion and any product, service, or software that you obtain from or through LaMetric. The word “Claims” means all claims, disputes, or controversies between you and us of any nature or kind, whether pre-existing, present, or future, that arise from or relate to the Products. This includes but is not limited to disagreements about the validity, enforceability, or scope of this Arbitration Provision.

Informal Efforts to Resolve Dispute. If a dispute arises between you and LaMetric, you should first attempt to resolve it by sending an email to [email protected] or by sending the details of your complaint, including your contact information for a response, to the address or fax number listed below. We will attempt in good faith to resolve all Claims submitted this way within sixty (60) days of receipt.

Agreement to Arbitrate; Right to Opt Out. If informal efforts to resolve Claims fail or are not used, you agree that any and all Claims will be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration as described herein, except that: (i) you may assert Claims in a small claims court in the United Kingdom if your Claims meet the court's jurisdictional requirements; and (ii) either party may pursue Claims and relief in a court of competent jurisdiction regarding the validity and/or infringement of a party's intellectual property rights.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award to you on an individual basis the same damages and forms of relief as a court could (including injunctive and declaratory relief as well as statutory damages), and must follow the law and terms of this Agreement as a court would. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions and private attorney general actions are not permitted.

If you do not wish to be bound by this arbitration provision, you must notify LaMetric in writing within 30 days from the date that you first accept or have access to this agreement by mailing or faxing an opt-out request to our customer service center listed below. Your written notification must include your name, address, the email address you used to register with LaMetric, and a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with us through arbitration. Your decision to opt out of this arbitration provision will have no adverse effect on your relationship with us or the delivery of products to you by us. If you have previously notified us of your decision to opt out of arbitration, you do not need to do so again.

Arbitration Fees. The allocation and payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS's rules which limit the amount a consumer is required to pay. If the arbitrator determines that your Claims are not frivolous applying the standards of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, we agree to reimburse you the amount of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees you are required to pay for the arbitration.

Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the JAMS (“JAMS”) under its rules if you are a resident of the United Kingdom; if your use of the Products has been principally for personal or household use, the JAMS' procedures for consumer-related disputes including the minimum fairness standards will also apply. If you are a resident of a country other than the United Kingdom, the arbitration will be conducted by the JAMS in London, UK, under its rules for international arbitration, and you and we agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the court in London, UK in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the applicable arbitration rules and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall govern and control.

The arbitration will be conducted in the English language by a single arbitrator who is an attorney-at-law with at least fifteen years' experience in consumer and technology transactions and who is also a member of the JAMS roster of arbitrators. If you and we can't agree on a mutually acceptable arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the arbitration is initiated, then the JAMS will pick a neutral arbitrator who meets the qualifications. The JAMS rules are available at //www.jamsadr.com, or by calling 1-800-352-5267 from inside the United States or +44 207 583 9808 from outside the United States.

Initiating Arbitration. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must follow the procedures specified by the applicable JAMS rules as described on their website at //www.jamsadr.com.

Time Restriction. You must file a complaint with jams or a permitted court within one (1) year of the date of the occurrence of the event or facts giving rise to a claim, or you waive the right to pursue any claim based upon such event, facts or dispute.

Arbitration Process. Because appearing in person for arbitration can be unduly burdensome in the circumstances, arbitration under this Arbitration Provision shall not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless mutually agreed. Either or both parties may participate by written submissions, telephone calls, or other means of remote communication as allowed by the arbitrator. The arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the English language at a location designated by the JAMS that is the most convenient for you.

The arbitration can only decide Claim(s) between you and us, and may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons that may have similar claims. There shall be no pre-arbitration discovery except as provided for in the applicable JAMS rules. The arbitrator will honor claims of privilege recognized by law and will take reasonable steps to protect customer account information and other confidential or proprietary information.

In conducting the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator will apply the law of United Kingdom. At the request of any party, the arbitrator shall provide a brief written explanation of the basis for the decision and award. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding on the parties except for any right to appeal under the JAMS rules or the Federal Arbitration Act.

Recovery and Attorneys' Fees. If the arbitrator rules in your favor on the merits of any Claim you bring against us and issues you an award that is greater in monetary value than our last written settlement offer made to you before written submissions are made to the arbitrator, then we will (i) pay you 150% of your arbitration damages award, up to $500 over and above your damages award; and (ii) pay your attorneys, if any, the amount of attorneys' fees, and reimburse any expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that you or your attorney reasonably incurred for investigating, preparing, and pursuing your Claim in arbitration. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of such fees, expenses, and the alternative payment and the attorney premium at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator's ruling on the merits. The right to attorneys' fees and expenses discussed above supplements any right to attorneys' fees and expenses you may have under applicable law, although you may not recover duplicative awards of attorneys fees or costs. If your use of the Products was principally for personal or household use, neither party will be entitled to any award of punitive or special damages and LaMetric waives any right it may have to seek an award of attorneys' fees and expenses from you in connection with any arbitration of Claims between us.

Confidentiality. You and we shall keep confidential any information exchanged during the arbitration as well as the decision of the arbitrator made with respect to any Claim(s) arbitrated under this Arbitration Provision and, with the exception of disclosure to your or our attorneys, accountants, auditors, and other legal or financial advisors, neither party shall disclose such information or decision to any other person unless required to do so by law.

Continuing Obligation to Arbitrate; Severability. This Arbitration Provision shall survive termination of your access to or use of any Products and related agreements. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision is deemed invalid or unenforceable at law, such invalid or unenforceable provision will be interpreted, construed or reformed to the extent required to make it valid and enforceable, and this shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision.
