If True Love Publishing disables your access to your account, you may be prevented from accessing the Service, your account details or any materials contained in your account.
  4. Accounts and Security.

You do not need to create an account to visit the Site, but you must create an account to access and utilize certain aspects of the Service by completing the registration process or by creating an account. You may be required to provide information about yourself as part of the registration process or your continued use of the Service. You agree that any registration information that you submit to True Love Publishing will be correct, accurate and current.
  • Social Networks and True Love Publishing. By linking your account with any social network account including but not limited to, Facebook, Instagram or Twitter (“Social Network” or collectively, “Social Networks”), you expressly authorize True Love Publishing to receive, and for Social Networks to share, certain of your information that is available on or through Social Network accounts, including, without limitation, your profile information, friends’ names, your photos, privacy settings, your payment information associated with your account and certain other information that may be disclosed to you (and authorized by you) during the log-in process. Lunchtime Quickies is made available by True Love Publishing and its affiliates. Social Networks are made available by their respective corporate entities.
  • Fees. You agree to pay immediately all applicable fees and taxes incurred by you or anyone using your account. Unless otherwise noted, all currency references are in U.S. dollars. All fees and charges are payable in accordance with payment terms in effect at the time the fee or the charge becomes payable. True Love Publishing may, from time to time, modify, amend, or supplement its pricing, cancellation fees and billing procedures, and such changes shall be effective immediately upon posting a link to an update of this ToU or posting such changes elsewhere on the Site. If there is a dispute regarding your payment of fees or the Service, True Love Publishing shall have the right to terminate your account without prior notice. For the avoidance of doubt, if you purchase a monthly (or other periodic) Subscription Membership, you agree and acknowledge that your Subscription Membership has an initial and recurring payment charge at the then-current subscription rate, and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation, including where applicable any charges processed by True Love Publishing after the expiration date of your payment card.

  • Payments. All payments are payable by electronic funds transfer from your credit card account or debit card account. You must authorize payments to be made through a third-party payment processor. You authorize True Love Publishing to charge all payments for the Service on the payment method designated in your account. When you make a purchase through the Site, or a third-party website or app, a temporary pre-authorization hold may be placed on your designated payment method to verify that the card is valid and has funds available for your intended purchase. The amount of this pre-authorization hold may be greater or less than the payment total quoted at checkout. However, you will only be charged the final payment total once your payment is registered as complete within True Love Publishing system. True Love Publishing will not process charges that use an incorrect, expired, or over-the-limit credit card. We will make our best efforts to contact you if this occurs. If you fail to pay any fees or charges when due, services or privileges may be suspended or terminated. You shall be responsible and liable for any fees, including attorneys’ fees and collection costs, that True Love Publishing may incur in its efforts to collect any unpaid balances from you.
  • Subscription Payments. If you purchase a Gold Membership (collectively, “Subscription Membership”), you will be charged the Subscription fee (“Subscription Fee”), at the beginning of your Subscription Membership and each subscription period (e.g., monthly or annually, as specified when you purchase such Subscription Membership) thereafter, at the then-current Subscription Membership Fee.
  • If you purchase a Subscription Membership, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you each period on or about the applicable anniversary of the calendar day of the commencement of your Subscription Membership, using the Payment Information you have provided until you cancel your Subscription Membership. In the event your Subscription Membership began on a day not contained in a given month, your payment method will be charged on a day in the applicable month or such other day as we (or our third party payment processor) deem appropriate (for example, if you started a monthly Subscription Membership on January 31st, your next payment date is likely to be February 28th, and your payment method would be billed on or about that date). By agreeing to this Agreement and electing to purchase a Subscription Membership, you acknowledge that your Subscription Membership has recurring payment features and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription Membership by you or True Love Publishing. Please pay special attention to the recurring payment features associated with your Subscription Membership listed on the Site. Your Subscription Membership continues until cancelled by you or we terminate your access to or use of the Service or Subscription Membership in accordance with this Agreement.
  • Subscription Cancellation. You may cancel your Subscription Membership at any time by disabling the auto-renewal settings in your account settings at least 30 days prior to the end of your current Subscription Membership period. Your Subscription Membership will then terminate at the end of your current Subscription Membership period. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ALL SUBSCRIPTION FEES AND OTHER CHARGES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE BY TRUE LOVE PUBLISHING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNLESS SPECIFIED OTHERWISE. YOU ARE FULLY LIABLE FOR ALL CHARGES TO YOUR ACCOUNT, INCLUDING ANY UNAUTHORIZED CHARGES. TRUE LOVE PUBLISHING SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR FAILURE TO CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AT LEAST 30 DAYS PRIOR TO THE END OF YOUR CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION MEMBERSHIP PERIOD. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID FOR THE THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION MEMBERSHIP PERIOD AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION.  You will be responsible for all Subscription Fees incurred for the then-current Subscription period.

(a)   ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, USE, DATA OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF TRUE LOVE PUBLISHING OR THE RELATED PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OR SHOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF ANY SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES;

(b)  THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS, SERVICES OR TECHNOLOGY; OR

(c)   THE DELETION OF, CORRUPTION OF, OR FAILURE TO STORE ANY MATERIALS, INFORMATION OR DATA MAINTAINED BY OR THROUGH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.

 

14.2  WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, IN NO CASE SHALL THE LIABILITY OF TRUE LOVE PUBLISHING OR ANY OF THE RELATED PARTIES EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).

 

Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, the liability of True Love Publishing and the Related Parties shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.

  1. Indemnification. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold True Love Publishing and the Related Parties harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities damages and losses including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, resulting from or arising out of (a) your use of the Service or (b) your breach of this ToU or any other policies that True Love Publishing may issue for the Service from time to time.
  2. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This ToU is governed by California law, without regard to conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You and True Love Publishing agree that, except as otherwise provided in Section 17 below, the state and federal courts located in Los Angeles, California will have exclusive jurisdiction of all disputes arising out of or related to this ToU or your use of the Service and agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of these courts. Notwithstanding the foregoing, True Love Publishing shall be allowed to apply for equitable remedies (including injunctions) in any jurisdiction.
  3. Binding Arbitration.

Arbitration Procedures. You and True Love Publishing agree that, except as provided in Section 19.1 below, all disputes, controversies and claims related to this ToU (each a “Claim”), shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, which may be initiated by either party by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to the other party. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration will be conducted under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (the “JAMS Rules”) and under the terms set forth in this ToU. In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Section 17 and the JAMS Rules, the terms in this Section 17 will control and prevail.

Except as otherwise set forth in Section 19.1 you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and True Love Publishing will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based. The determination of whether a Claim is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Except as otherwise provided in this ToU, (a) you and True Love Publishing may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator; and (b) the arbitrator’s decision shall be final, binding on all parties and enforceable in any court that has jurisdiction, provided that any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to follow applicable law.

  1. Location. The arbitration will take place in Los Angeles, California unless the parties agree to video, phone or internet connection appearances.
  2. Limitations. You and True Love Publishing agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Claim between True Love Publishing and you individually. YOU AND TRUE LOVE PUBLISHING AGREE THAT (a) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (b) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (c) NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.
  • Exceptions to Arbitration. You and True Love Publishing agree that the following Claims are not subject to the above provisions concerning negotiations and binding arbitration: (a) any Claim seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of True Love Publishing’s intellectual property rights; (b) any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy or unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for equitable relief. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Claims that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration.
  • Arbitration Fees. If you initiate arbitration for a Claim, you will need to pay the JAMS arbitration initiation fee. If we are initiating arbitration for a Claim, we will pay all costs charged by JAMS for initiating the arbitration. All other fees and costs of the arbitration will be charged pursuant to the JAMS Rules.
  • Severability. You and True Love Publishing agree that if any portion of this Section 19 is found illegal or unenforceable (except any portion of Section 19.1), that portion shall be severed, and the remainder of the section shall be given full force and effect. If Section 19.1 is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor True Love Publishing will elect to arbitrate any Claim falling within that portion of 1 found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Claim shall be exclusively decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within Los Angeles, California United States of America, and you and True Love Publishing agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
  • Survival. This Section 19 shall survive any termination of your relationship with True Love Publishing.

    • Attorneys’ Fees.

    • No Waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision of this ToU shall in no way be construed to be a present or future waiver of such provision, nor in any way affect our right to enforce the same provision at a later time.
