In those cases, the Additional Terms will control to the extent there is a conflict with this Agreement, unless the Additional Terms state otherwise. If you access one of our Apps on or through a third party platform, such as Apple's App Store, Google Play and other third party platforms (any, an "App Platform"), you and AG acknowledge that (a) you enter into this Agreement with AG only, and not with the App Platform, (b) the App Platform is not a party to this Agreement, and (c) AG, not the App Platform, is responsible for the App.

Subject to your strict compliance with this Agreement and any Additional Terms, AG hereby grants to you a limited, personal, revocable, noncommercial, nonexclusive, non-assignable, and nontransferable license to access and view the Materials (excluding source and object code, other than as made available to access and use via standard web browsers to enable display on your device); and, if you use one of our Apps on an App Platform, to use the App as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the App Platform's Terms of Service. No other use of the AG Platforms or Materials is authorized.

The products, technology, or processes described or used on the AG Platforms may be the subject of intellectual property rights owned or licensed by AG or other third-parties. Except for the limited license granted above, nothing contained in this Agreement or anywhere else on the AG Platforms confers to you in any manner, whether by implication, estoppel or otherwise, any license, title, or ownership of or to any intellectual property right of AG or any third-party.

You grant AG an unrestricted, worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, assignable, transferable, sub-licensable (through multiple tiers), and royalty-free license (but not obligation) to host, use, copy, distribute, display, prepare derivative works of, perform, modify, translate, store or otherwise exploit all or any portion thereof for the creation, publication, use, and transmission of your User Content, on or through any media, technology or device now known or hereafter developed.

Mobile Features

The AG Platforms may offer features and services that are available to you via your mobile phone or other mobile device. These features and services may include, without limitation, the ability to upload User Content to the AG Platforms, receive messages (e.g., SMS and MMS messages, in-App messages, and on-device notifications) from the AG Platforms, download applications to your mobile phone or device, or access AG Platforms features (collectively, the "Mobile Features"). We may charge you for Mobile Features. Also, standard messaging, data and other fees may be charged by your carrier. Fees and charges will appear on your mobile bill or be deducted from your pre-paid balance. Your carrier may prohibit or restrict certain Mobile Features and certain Mobile Features may be incompatible with your carrier or mobile device. Contact your carrier with questions regarding these issues. If you have registered for Mobile Features, you agree that we may send communications to your mobile device regarding AG, or other parties, and collect information related to your use of the Mobile Features. You agree to notify us of any changes to your mobile number and update your account(s) on the AG Platforms to reflect any such changes. If you receive SMS or MMS messages from AG or one of the Platforms, you may opt-out of such messages by texting "STOP" to the applicable short code for the mobile feature. You may also text "HELP" or contact us for support.

In addition to the other restrictions and limitations contained in this Agreement, AG is not responsible for failures in the performance of Mobile Features, including but not limited to, the delivery of electronic messages or cards via the Mobile Features as a result of any technical issues. For example, AG is not responsible if your electronic message or card is not delivered because:

  • the recipient declines delivery;
  • the recipient uses an unsupported carrier;
  • the recipient's mobile device or computer cannot display video messages;
  • the recipient's plan does not provide for video messaging;
  • the recipient's carrier is unable to deliver messages to the recipient;
  • the recipient's network connection is interrupted during message delivery; or
  • either your or the recipient's carrier does not support video messaging.

There may be other reasons for a delivery failure as well. AG does not provide refunds, including for electronic messages or cards that are not delivered due to technical issues for which AG is not responsible.

If you sign up to receive promotional or marketing text messages (including SMS and MMS messages) from us, you acknowledge and agree that we may send such messages using an autodialer to the number you provide. You acknowledge and agree that you are not required to receive our text messages, and that you are not required to agree to receive text messages as a condition of purchasing any property, goods, or services.

If AG provides functionality for you to send an ecard via text message (including through the use of SMS and MMS technologies) and you send such a text message, you represent and warrant that you have the consent of the recipient to send that text message. You further acknowledge and agree that, as between you and AG, you are the sender of such an ecard and AG acts merely as a delivery agent.

All of the materials available on the AG Platforms are subject to copyright or are used by us under license from the copyright holder. AG currently utilizes copyrighted materials from various individuals and entities. Copyright notices for such material are set forth wherever such licensed material appears on the AG Platforms.

Digital Millennium Copyright Act Notices

You may not use the Platforms for any purpose or in any manner that infringes the rights of any third party. AG encourages you to report any content on the Platforms that you believe infringes your rights. Only the intellectual property rights owner or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner can report potentially infringing content. If you have a good faith belief that content on the Platforms infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, please follow the procedures set forth below.

Pursuant to Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c)(2), notifications of claimed copyright infringement should be sent to AG's Designated Agent (identified below). THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS PROVIDED EXCLUSIVELY FOR NOTIFYING THE SERVICE PROVIDER REFERENCED BELOW THAT YOUR COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL MAY HAVE BEEN INFRINGED. ALL OTHER INQUIRIES (e.g., REQUESTS FOR TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE OR CUSTOMER SERVICE, REPORTS OF EMAIL ABUSE, AND PIRACY REPORTS), WILL NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE THROUGH THIS PROCESS.

Written notification must be submitted via our online form or to the Designated Agent:

c/o Legal Department (DMCA Notices)
AG Interactive, Inc.
One American Boulevard
Cleveland, Ohio 44145
Telephone: 1-216-252-7300
legal@americangreetings.com

To be effective, pursuant to Title 17, United States Code, Section 512(c)(3)(A), any copyright infringement notification must include all of the following:

  • An electronic or physical signature of the owner or of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest;

  • A statement by you that you have a good-faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  • A statement by you made and signed under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf.

It is often difficult to determine if your intellectual property rights have been violated or if the DMCA requirements have been met. We may request additional information before we remove any infringing material. If a dispute develops as to the correct owner of the rights in question, we reserve the right to remove your content along with that of the alleged infringer pending resolution of the matter.

We may, in appropriate circumstances and at our discretion, disable or terminate the accounts of users who may be repeat infringers.

Counter-Notice: If you believe that User Content that was removed (or to which access was disabled) is not infringing, or that you have the authorization from the copyright owner, the copyright owner's agent, or pursuant to the law, to post and use the material in your User Content, you may send a counter-notice containing the following information to the Designated Agent:

  • Your physical or electronic signature;
  • Identification of the User Content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the User Content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
  • A statement that you have a good faith belief that the User Content was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or a misidentification of the User Content; and
  • Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal courts located in Ohio, and a statement that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification of the alleged infringement.

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, AG may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that AG may restore the removed User Content or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the User Content provider, the removed User Content may be restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at AG's sole discretion.

Mandatory Arbitration

Except for disputes relating to the infringement of your or AG's intellectual property (such as trademarks, trade dress, copyright and patents) or where you or AG are seeking a preliminary injunction ("Excluded Disputes"), you agree that all disputes between you and AG (whether or not such dispute involves a third-party) with regard to this Agreement, your use of the AG Platforms, or any AG advertisement or promotion ("Disputes"), will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association's rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes. This agreement to arbitrate applies to all Disputes (other than Excluded Disputes), whether based in contract, tort, statute, or any other legal or equitable theory. Notwithstanding the foregoing agreement to arbitrate, you or AG may bring Disputes in an appropriate small claims court so long as the relief requested falls within the jurisdiction of the small claims court. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrators will not have authority to award punitive or exemplary damages. You and AG agree that any questions about the scope or enforceability of this arbitration provision will be decided by a court, not an arbitrator. Judgment on the award rendered by an arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, AG will not amend the mandatory arbitration provision without your express consent.

YOU AND AG EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ALL ARBITRATIONS WILL BE LIMITED TO INDIVIDUAL, NOT REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY ABILITY TO BRING A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION IN ARBITRATION OR TO SEEK RELIEF ON BEHALF OF A CLASS IN ARBITRATION. YOU ALSO EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO BRING A CLASS ACTION IN COURT OR TO PARTICIPATE OR OBTAIN BENEFITS IN CLASS ACTION SOMEONE ELSE BRINGS IN COURT. You and AG acknowledge that this class action waiver is integral to this arbitration provision. If a court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver is invalid or unenforceable, you and AG both agree that this arbitration provision will not apply and any Dispute may be resolved in court.

Arbitration is a process to resolve disputes before a neutral person (an arbitrator) instead of having a trial in court with a judge or jury. THEREFORE, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY AND YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO BRING CLAIMS IN COURT.

You and AG agree that this Agreement is subject to and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq. and, where consistent, Ohio law. Arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") pursuant to its Commercial Arbitration Rules and Consumer Related Disputes Supplemental Procedures. Those rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. A single arbitrator will decide our Disputes. To initiate an arbitration, you must file a demand for arbitration with the AAA, following the AAA's rules and procedures set forth at www.adr.org. If you file an arbitration claim against AG, AG agrees to pay the AAA filing fee on your behalf. Arbitration shall be held in the state in which you reside at the time you initiate the arbitration.

You and AG agree that we will each be responsible for our own costs and attorney's fees in arbitration. The arbitrator's fees will be divided between us as set forth in the AAA's Consumer Related Disputes Supplemental Procedures. If you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, AG agrees to pay you for any arbitrator fees you paid in the arbitration or to pay the arbitrator for any fees owed by you. If you prevail in the arbitration and are entitled to recover your attorney's fees or costs under an applicable statute or common law doctrine, then the arbitrator has authority to award you such fees and costs. AG agrees that it will not seek to recover its attorneys' fees and costs from you even if it prevails in the arbitration and is entitled to recover those fees and costs under an applicable statute or common law doctrine.
