These Terms of Use provide that all disputes between you and Fundertainment will be resolved by BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court). Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury and your claims cannot be brought as a class action.

Any personally identifying information submitted through the Fundertainment service is subject to our Privacy Policy, the terms of which are incorporated herein. Please review our Privacy Policy to understand our practices. The date of any changes to our Privacy Policy will be noted at the bottom of the policy. By using our service, you are consenting to receive certain communications from us.

Membership

Every school year the school and student must renew their membership to be a continued participant in the program.  Any student or school not re-registered will expire out of the system.  This will ensure orders are not placed to students who are no longer attending the school.

Right to Terminate

We reserve the right to terminate or restrict your use of our service, without notice, for any or no reason whatsoever.

Features & Functionality

  • Passwords

The member who created the Fundertainment school account is referred to here as the Account Owner. The Account Owner has access and control over the Fundertainment account. The Account Owner's control is exercised through use of the Account Owner's password and therefore to maintain exclusive control, the Account Owner should not reveal the password to anyone.

BY SHARING THE FUNDERTAINMENT SERVICE PASSWORD, THE ACCOUNT OWNER AGREES TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ASSURING THAT SCHOOL MEMBERS COMPLY WITH THE TERMS OF USE AND SUCH ACCOUNT OWNER SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ACTIONS OF THE SCHOOL MEMBERS.

  • Maturity Level Controls

An Account Owner is the representative from the school who signs the school on board for the Fundertainment program and is also responsible for renewing membership yearly.  The Account Owner will determine the maturity level of movies & TV shows available for purchase to customers wishing to buy movies from the school’s page at the time they sign their school on board.  Account Owners can change the maturity level available to their school by changing the Title Package on their admin page on the Fundertainment site. If you have set a maturity restriction on your internet ready device, that setting does not apply to the Fundertainment service.

Please note: students selling products through their school will have passwords and access of their own.  However, the Fundertainment service is not intended to be used by students without involvement, supervision, and approval of a parent or legal guardian. Therefore, parents will be given a login initially and will then be required to add their children into the system under said parent/guardian’s account and will be able to set parental permissions at this time.  If you have set a maturity restriction on your internet ready device, that setting does not apply to the Fundertainment service.

Applications

You may encounter third-party applications (including, without limitation, websites, widgets, software, or other software utilities) ("Application(s)") that interact with the Fundertainment service. These Applications may import data related to your Fundertainment account and activity and otherwise gather data from you. These Applications are provided solely as a convenience to you, and Fundertainment is not responsible for and does not endorse the content of such Applications. SUCH APPLICATIONS ARE OWNED OR OPERATED BY THIRD PARTIES THAT ARE NOT RELATED TO, ASSOCIATED WITH OR SPONSORED BY FUNDERTAINMENT AND MAY NOT BE AUTHORIZED FOR USE WITH OUR SERVICE IN ALL COUNTRIES. Some of these Applications may even use Fundertainment trademarks. Unless otherwise noted by Fundertainment on the Fundertainment website, Fundertainment is not responsible for and does not endorse the content of such Applications. You will need to make your own independent judgment regarding your interaction with these Applications. If you choose, at your sole and absolute discretion and risk, to use an Application, such Application may interact with, connect to or gather and/or pull information from and to your Fundertainment account. By using such Applications, you acknowledge and agree to the following: (i) if you use an Application to share information relating to your Fundertainment account, you are consenting to the information about your account being shared; (ii) your use of an Application may cause personally identifying information to be publicly disclosed and/or associated with you, even if Fundertainment has not provided such information; and (iii) your USE OF AN APPLICATION IS AT YOUR OWN OPTION AND RISK, and you will hold Fundertainment harmless for the sharing of information relating to your Fundertainment account that results from your use of an Application. You must read all log-in boxes and other pop-up boxes closely for notices about sharing your Fundertainment account information with, through or by any other means identified on an Application. In addition, the Application's terms of use, and/or any other documentation or materials designated by the Application will govern your use of that Application. It is possible that you may be able to revoke an Application's access to your Fundertainment account at any time, but information shared prior to revocation may continue to be viewable within, or otherwise continue to be used by, the Application depending on the policies of such Application. If you have any questions, concerns, complaints, or claims about the Applications, you should contact the support or contact personnel of the Application and not Fundertainment, unless otherwise indicated by Fundertainment. FUNDERTAINMENT DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF APPLICATIONS.

Account Access; Identity Protection

In order to provide you with ease of access to your account and to help administer the Fundertainment service, Fundertainment implements technology that enables us to recognize you as the account holder and provide you with direct access to your account without requiring you to retype any password or other user identification when you revisit the Fundertainment service. You are responsible for updating and maintaining the truth and accuracy of the information you provide to us relating to your account.

You are also responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your internet ready device. If you disclose your password to anyone or share your account and/or devices with other people, you take full responsibility for their actions. Where possible, users of public or shared devices should log out at the completion of each visit. If you sell or return a internet ready device, you should logout and/or deactivate the device before doing so. Similarly, if your internet ready device is lost or stolen, please deactivate the internet ready device. If you fail to log out or deactivate your device, subsequent users may access the Fundertainment service through your account and may be able to access certain of your account information.

If you find that you're a victim of identity theft and it involves a Fundertainment account, you should notify Customer Service. Then, you should report this instance to all your card issuers, as well as your local law enforcement agency. Also, you should be mindful of any communication requesting that you submit credit card or other account information. Providing your information in response to these types of communications can result in identity theft. Always access your sensitive account information by going directly to the Fundertainment website and not through a hyperlink in an email or any other electronic communication, even if it looks official. Fundertainment reserves the right to place any account on hold anytime with or without notification to the member in order to protect itself and its partners from what it believes to be fraudulent activity.

Individuals under the age of 18 may utilize the service, but they may do so only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian. While Fundertainment does distribute products that may be watched by children, the Fundertainment service is not intended to be used by children, without involvement, supervision, and approval of a parent or legal guardian (see also "Maturity Level Controls").  Fundertainment does not promote, foster or condone the copying of movies & TV Shows, digitally delivered content, or any other infringing activity.

Some of the hyperlinks on the Fundertainment website may lead to other websites or other content that are not controlled by, or affiliated with, Fundertainment. In addition, other websites may link to the Fundertainment website or Fundertainment may include links to the websites of businesses, including those that have associations with us through certain programs.

Governing Law

These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, U.S.A. without regard to conflict of laws provisions. If any provision or provisions of these terms shall be held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable or in conflict with the law of any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and shall remain in full force and effect.

Arbitration Agreement

You and Fundertainment agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Fundertainment service, including our website, user interfaces, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Fundertainment are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your Fundertainment membership.

If you elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to Fundertainment, by certified mail, a written Notice of your claim ("Notice"). The Notice to Fundertainment should be addressed to: General Counsel, Fundertainment, Inc., 700 N. Brand Boulevard, Suite 580, Glendale, CA 91203 ("Notice Address"). If Fundertainment elects to seek arbitration, it will send, by certified mail, a written Notice to the address used for your membership account.  A Notice, whether sent by you or by Fundertainment, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If Fundertainment and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Fundertainment may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Fundertainment or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator. You may download or copy a form Notice and a form to initiate arbitration at www.adr.org. The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Unless Fundertainment and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address. (If you reside outside of the United States, any arbitration hearings will take place in your country of residence at a location reasonably convenient to you, but will remain subject to the AAA Rules including the AAA rules regarding the selection of an arbitrator). If your claim is for US10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds US10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. If the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of Fundertainment’s last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected (or if Fundertainment did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then Fundertainment will pay you the amount of the award or US1,000, whichever is greater. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.

YOU AND FUNDERTAINMENT AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Fundertainment agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.
