    Your Conduct and Your Use of the Service

    You are responsible for your own use of this Service. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for any audio, video, music, text, links, or other content that you post, publish, upload, display or communication through the Service (collectively "User Content"), and for the consequences of posting, publishing, uploading or displaying any User Content.

    The Service provides you with the ability to upload User Content through the myPineal website. User Content uploaded through the myPineal website will generally be made public. When you upload User Content through the myPineal website, you may choose to keep the content private (meaning only you or another person with the ability to use the account you create will have access to the content), to share it with specific other members of the myPineal Community, or to make it public. You consent to the public dissemination of all User Content you submit through the myPineal website, that you designate as public, or that you communicate using any other feature of the Service that does not expressly provide for limited access to User Content. You understand and agree that User Content you communicate using the Service may be recorded, stored, copied and/or retransmitted by myPineal, including but not limited to User Content that you upload through the myPineal website and designate as public or to be shared with specified members.

    You agree that you will not use the Service to post, transmit, or share User Content that you did not create or that you do not have permission to use and share through the Service. You affirm that you have all intellectual property rights (including without limitation copyright and trademark rights), licenses, and permissions that are needed to use and to authorize myPineal to use User Content you provide in the manner described in these TOS. By submitting, uploading or posting User Content, you warrant that it does not infringe any intellectual property rights of another person.

    You also understand that it may be illegal to publish any video or audio recording of another person for a commercial purpose without their consent. Merely publishing or displaying User Content through the Service does not necessarily constitute using it for a commercial purpose. Nonetheless, by submitting or posting User Content you also warrant that you have obtained any and all permissions, releases, and consents necessary to record, publish and display the User Content for a commercial purpose.

    You agree that you will not use the Service to post, transmit, or share User Content that is defamatory or invasive of the privacy of another person, graphically violent, physically threatening, intended for any illegal purpose, or otherwise illegal. By submitting or posting User Content, you warrant that it is not defamatory or invasive of the privacy of any other person, graphically violent, physically threatening, or otherwise illegal.

    You acknowledge that myPineal does not promise that any User Content you submit to it or that you communicate using the Service will be maintained by myPineal. You are solely responsible for creating backup copies of and replacing any User Content you submit to myPineal or post on the Service, at your own cost and expense. You agree that myPineal has no responsibility or liability for the deletion of, or the failure to store or to transmit, any User Content. myPineal retains the right to create limits on use and storage at its sole discretion, at any time, with or without notice.

    By accessing or using the Service, you acknowledge and agree that myPineal is engaged in the transmission, storage, retrieval, hosting, formatting or translation (or any combination thereof) of the User Content provided by the Service without selection or alteration of the User Content, and that all User Content provided by the Service is governed by section 230(c) of Title 47 of the United States Code (47 U.S.C. ß 230(c)) and by section 2257(h)(2)(B)(v) of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. ß 2257(h)(2)(B)(v).)

    Rights to the Content on the Service

    All content and components of the Service other than User Content ("myPineal Content"), including without limitation, the software, text, photos, video and audio content, graphics, interactive features and advertisements, and all trademarks, service marks and logos used in the Service, are owned by myPineal, or are licensed to myPineal subject to copyrights or other intellectual property rights held by others. myPineal reserves all rights to the myPineal Content, User Content, and any other component or content of the Service not expressly granted to you by these TOS.

    myPineal reserves the right to limit the amount of materials viewed. Commercial use of any content of the Service, other than your own commercial use of User Content you have uploaded, is strictly prohibited. In addition, except with respect to User Content that you have uploaded, you may not: (i) modify any of the materials provided by the Service; (ii) copy, reproduce, publically display or perform, distribute, or prepare derivative works from any of the content of the Service; (iii) remove, modify or alter any copyright, trademark, or other attribution or proprietary notice from any of the materials used in the Service; or (iv) otherwise transfer any material provided through the Service to any other person or entity. myPineal reserves the right to terminate this license at any time if you breach or violate any provision of these TOS, in which case you will be obligated to immediately destroy any materials you have obtained from this Site.

    By submitting, posting, or communicating User Content using the Service, you grant to myPineal an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, fully paid, royalty-free, worldwide license to: (1) use, copy, publicly perform, publicly display, reformat, translate, excerpt (in whole or in part) and distribute the User Content in or through any medium now known or hereafter invented, for any purpose; (2) to prepare derivative works using the User Content, or to incorporate it into other works, for any purpose; and (3) to grant and authorize sublicenses of any or all of the foregoing rights.

    myPineal does not assert any ownership over your User Content; rather, as between myPineal and you, subject to the rights granted to us in these TOS, you retain full ownership of all of your User Content and any intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights associated with your User Content.
    myPineal may obtain and exercise intellectual property rights over compilations, collective works, or derivative works that incorporate User Content you have provided. In that case, the rights myPineal obtains will apply only to the compilation, collective work, or derivative work; as between myPineal and you, subject to the rights granted to us in these TOS, you will retain full ownership of and rights to your User Content.

    When you submit or communicate any User Content using the Service, you also authorize myPineal to record and make such copies thereof as it deems necessary in order to facilitate the posting, maintenance, and storage of the User Content as part of the Service.

    Objectionable or Inappropriate Content

    myPineal does not endorse, support, represent or guarantee the truthfulness, accuracy, or reliability of any content provided by the Service. You acknowledge that any use of or reliance on material provided by the Service will be at your own risk.

    myPineal may review any content provided by the Service, including any User Content uploaded using the Service, and reserves the right to refuse to distribute any such content or to remove any content from the Service, in it sole discretion. However, you acknowledge and agree that myPineal is not obligated to remove any content from the Service, unless and until it is established pursuant to the requirements of the law that the content is illegal.

    If you believe any content provided by the Service is illegal or violates these TOS, you may inform myPineal by using our report function. myPineal will review your report and the content to which you object (assuming it is still available through the Service). myPineal may remove the content if, in myPineal's judgment, it is illegal or otherwise inappropriate. However, please understand that deciding whether content is inappropriate is a judgment call, and that myPineal is not legally responsible for content that it does not originate. Neither is myPineal legally responsible for removing content that it deems inappropriate from the Service.

    myPineal reserves the right to access, read, preserve, and disclose any information as it reasonably believes is necessary to do any of the following: (1) satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process or legitimate governmental request; (2) enforce these TOS, including investigation of potential violations hereof; (3) detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; (4) respond to user support requests; or (5) protect the rights, property or safety of myPineal, its users and the public. You agree that myPineal will not be liable for exercising or failing to exercise any of these rights.

    Copyright

    myPineal respects the intellectual property rights of others. We prohibit users from uploading, posting or otherwise transmitting materials that violate the intellectual property rights of others. When we receive notification of alleged copyright infringement that complies with the Digital Millenium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. ß 512, the "DMCA"), we promptly remove or disable access to the allegedly infringing material. We also terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

    If you are a copyright owner or an agent thereof and you believe that any content of the Service infringes your copyrights, you may submit a notice by following the directions on our DMCA Page.

    Names and Trademarks

    Sponsors, Advertisers and Third Parties

    The Service may provide links to sponsor, advertiser, or other third party websites that are not owned or controlled by myPineal. Inclusion of, linking to, or permitting the use or installation of any third party site, applications, software, content or advertising does not imply approval or endorsement thereof by myPineal. myPineal has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third parties. By accessing or using the Service, you agree to release myPineal from any and all liability arising from your use of any third-party website, content, service, or software accessed through the Service.

    Your communications or dealings with, or participation in promotions of, sponsors, advertisers, or other third parties found through the Service, are solely between you and such third parties. You agree that myPineal shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any dealings with such sponsors, third parties or advertisers, or as the result of their presence in the Service.

    Privacy

    As a condition of using the Service, you agree to the terms of the most recent version myPineal Privacy Policy that exists at the time of your use. The Privacy Policy may be revised from time to time without notice to you other than appearing on the myPineal website. The Privacy Policy will indicate when it was last revised. It is your responsibility to regularly check the myPineal website and to review the Privacy Policy. Your continued use of the Service constitutes your agreement to all revisions to the Privacy Policy.

    myPineal may, in its sole discretion, terminate your access to the Service, delete any content or information that you have posted or communicated through the Service, and/or prohibit you from using the Service, at any time, with or without notice, and for any reason, including but not limited to violation of these TOS.

    Disclaimer of Warranties

    YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. myPineal EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

    IN PARTICULAR, AND WITHOUT LIMITATION, myPineal MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT: (1) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS; (2) THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; (3) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE; (4) THE QUALITY OF ANY PRODUCTS, SERVICES, INFORMATION, OR OTHER MATERIAL PURCHASED OR OBTAINED BY YOU THROUGH THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS; (5) ANY ERRORS IN THE COMPONENTS OR CONTENTS OF THE SERVICE WILL BE CORRECTED; OR (6) OR THAT THE SERVICE IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS.

    No advice or information, oral or written, obtained by you from myPineal, shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these TOS.

    Severability

    If any provision of these TOS is found invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of the TOS will remain in force.

    Non-Waiver

    The failure of myPineal to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOS is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the TOS remain in full force and effect.

    Choice of Law

    The agreement created by these TOS, and any dispute arising from or relating to these TOS or the provision or use of the Service, will be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of New York, without giving effect to conflict of laws provisions.

    Arbitration & Class Action Waiver

    You and myPineal agree that we will resolve any disputes between us through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and myPineal hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any dispute we have that is subject to this arbitration agreement. Neither you nor myPineal may bring a claim against the other as a class action. Neither you nor myPineal may act as a private attorney general or class representative, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants with respect to any dispute or claim between us.
    As used in this arbitration agreement and waiver, the terms "myPineal" and "you" include myPineal's and your respective owners, officers, directors, shareholders, employees, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, predecessors in interest, successors, attorneys, and assigns. This arbitration agreement and waiver will be interpreted broadly, and will encompass all disputes between you and myPineal, including, but not limited to claims that relate in any way to the relationship between you and myPineal, your use of the Service, and any advertising or content of the Service, regardless of legal or equitable theory.

    This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief from us on your behalf. Moreover, you and myPineal have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court.

    In issuing any award, the arbitrator shall issue a written decision that is sufficiently detailed to inform both you and myPineal of the reasons for his or her decision. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only as necessary to provide the relief warranted by that party's individual claim. Any award may be confirmed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. All post-award proceedings will be governed by the FAA.

    Entire Agreement

    These TOS, together with the myPineal Privacy Policy and the myPineal DMCA Page, constitute the entire agreement between you and myPineal and governs your use of the Site. You may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use certain other services, such as affiliate services, third-party content or third-party software. In order to determine what those obligations may be, you understand and agree that it is your responsibility to review any and all terms and conditions of usage and privacy policies with respect to such service, content, or software.
