  • 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 work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.

  • A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.

A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.  It is ShareG’s policy to remove any Submission concerning which a notice of claimed infringement has been received and investigate and permanently remove such Submission if deemed appropriate under the circumstances.  Repeat offenders will have access privileges denied and such activity will result in termination of this Agreement. Also, we will notify the user and, if requested, provide the report to the user. Please note that in addition to being forwarded to the user who provided the allegedly infringing content, a copy of this legal notice (with your personal information removed) may be sent to a third-party which may publish and/or annotate it.

If a user of our websites believes that their content was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, the Visitor can send us a written counter-notification which includes the following:

  • The user’s name, mailing address, telephone number and email address.
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the URL or other specific location on our websites at which the material appeared before it was removed or disabled.

  • A statement under penalty of perjury that the user has a good faith belief that the material in question was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled (i.e. “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that each search result, message, or other item of content identified above was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled, or that the material identified by the complainant has been removed or disabled at the URL identified and will no longer be shown.”)
  • The Visitor’s physical or electronic signature.

We will restore the removed or disabled content following 10 business days from the date that we received a proper written counter notification, unless our copyright agent first receives notice that a court action has been filed to restrain the user from engaging in infringing activity related to the removed or disabled content.

  1. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

Services are protected by copyright as a collective work and/or compilation, pursuant to U.S. copyright laws, international conventions, and other intellectual property laws. You may not modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce (except as expressly provided in this Section 2), create derivative works based on, distribute, perform, display, or in any way exploit, any of the Content, software, materials, or Services in whole or in part. ShareG grants you a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Site and the Services in accordance with this Agreement during the term. The Agreement does not transfer from ShareG to you any ShareG or third-party intellectual property, and all right, title and interest in and to such property will remain (as between the parties) solely with ShareG.

  1. BREACH OF AGREEMENT, REMEDIES AND ARBITRATION

If you fail to abide by these terms or undertake any illegal activity, ShareG may suspend your access and remove, block or restrict any Submission. ShareG may also send an e-mail that informs you that your Submission has been deleted or edited. Repeated inappropriate Submissions may result in your relevant account or accounts being placed into temporary or permanent suspension of your ability to participate in any or all of the areas on the Site.

If you post or send offensive or inappropriate content anywhere on or to the Site or otherwise engage in any disruptive behavior which ShareG considers to be serious and/or repeated, ShareG may use all available information about you to stop any further infringements. This may include informing relevant third parties such as your employer, school, Internet service provider, or law enforcement authorities of the infringement or other illegal activity.

ShareG may cooperate with legal authorities or third parties in the investigation of any suspected or alleged crime or civil wrong. Breach of this TOS may result in the suspension or termination of either access to the Services and your ShareG account or other appropriate actions. When you use the Services, the third-party from whom ShareG has obtained the right to access the applicable wireless connection point at which the Services are being used is an intended third-party beneficiary of this TOS. Any fraudulent, abusive, or otherwise illegal activity may be grounds for termination of your right to access or use the Services.

ShareG reserves the right to delete any Submission, or take action against any account, at any time, for any reason.

You agree that, except as otherwise provided herein, all disputes between you and ShareG (whether or not such dispute involves a third party) will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes and the parties hereby expressly waive trial by jury. As an alternative, you may bring a claim in your local “small claims” court if permitted by that court’s rules. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency injunctive relief by filing for such in accordance with the Governing Law and Venue section 13(c). Further, you may bring claims only on your own behalf. Neither party may participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any claims covered by this Agreement. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person’s account, if ShareG is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either party may elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with this Agreement. You may opt out of this agreement to arbitrate. If you do opt out, neither party can require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must notify ShareG in writing within thirty (30) days of the date that you first became subject to this arbitration provision. You must use this address to opt out: ShareG, Inc. ATTN: LEGAL – Arbitration Opt-Out, [email protected]. You must include your name, residence address, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement. If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties or arbitration clause contained above is found to be unenforceable or if you opt-out of arbitration then all of the preceding language in this section will be null and void and the Governing Law and Venue section, above, shall control. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with us.
