DMCA Copyright Policy and Copyright Agent
Clarkin respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the same. Clarkin may remove content that, in its sole discretion, appears to infringe the intellectual property rights of others.
Except as otherwise indicated, all content within the Services, including text, graphics, logos, button icons, photos, images, forms, audio, video, questionnaires, and software, is the property of Clarkin or its licensors and is protected by the United States and international copyright laws. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that materials appearing within the Services infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. In addition, if you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongfully filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA. One place to find more information is the U.S. Copyright Office website, currently located at http:www.loc.gov/copyright.
In accordance with the DMCA, Clarkin has designated an agent to receive notification of alleged copyright infringement. Any written Notification of Claimed Infringement should comply with Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c)(3)(A) and should be provided in writing to our designated agent as follows:
Agent:

We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice.

THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMER IN THIS SECTION ARE NOT INTENDED TO ALTER YOUR RIGHTS AS A CONSUMER THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
Waiver of Representative / Class Action Proceedings
BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY AGREE TO BRING ANY CLAIMS GOVERNED BY THIS AGREEMENT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, OR REPRESENTATIVE IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

We will communicate with you by e-mail or by posting notices on the Website. Each party agrees that any notice that it receives from the other party electronically satisfies any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.
Limitation of Actions; Law and Venue
You acknowledge and agree that, regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action you may have arising out of, relating to or connected with your use of the Services, must: (1) be filed within one (1) calendar year after such claim or cause of action arises, or forever be barred; (2) be decided exclusively under the laws of California, without regard to the principles of conflicts of law; (3) be brought and decided exclusively in the state or federal courts in San Diego County, California; and (4) both parties waive any right either of us may have to assert the doctrine of forum non conveniens or similar doctrine or to object to the venue with respect to any proceeding brought in accordance with this Section.

Integration
This Agreement contains the entire understanding between you and Clarkin regarding its subject matter, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between us, whether oral or in writing, regarding its subject matter.
Additional Terms
This Agreement is binding upon each party hereto and its successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement and all of your rights and obligations under it is not assignable or transferable by you without the prior written consent of Clarkin. This Agreement governs the relationship between Clarkin and you and does not create any third-party beneficiary rights. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof, or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege under this Agreement. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement will not invalidate any other provision of this Agreement, all of which will remain in full force and effect. If you reside in or are subject to the laws of a jurisdiction anywhere in the world whose common, statutory, regulatory, or codified law would void this Agreement in whole or in any essential part (the essential parts being at least, but not only, the choice of law and exclusive venue provisions, disclaimers, exclusions and limitations), or which make accessing the Services illegal, you do so entirely at your own risk.
