In order to use our Services that have fees associated with them, you must select a payment method and provide accurate billing and payment information when prompted. You agree to pay Unlimit for all charges incurred under your account, including all applicable taxes, fees and surcharges. You authorize Unlimit to charge your designated payment method for such charges.

2. Please note that Unlimit uses a domestic or an international third-party payment service, the latter of which may result in international transactions fees billed to your credit card, (collectively, the “Payment Service“), to collect payments for all fees. At the time of purchase, you will provide Unlimit your payment information and we will pass that along to the Payment Service. Please note that any international transaction fees that you may incur are charged by your bank and not by Unlimit. All questions concerning such fees should be directed towards your bank. Any information you provide us in connection with payment that we provide to the Payment Service may also be subject to the Payment Service’s user agreement and privacy policy.

1. No Representations or Warranties by Unlimit. UNLIMIT MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES OR THE CONTENT OR MATERIALS MADE AVAILABLE BY UNLIMIT THROUGH THE SERVICES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE UNLIMIT LIBRARY) (“UNLIMIT CONTENT“), ALL OF WHICH ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, UNLIMIT DISCLAIMS ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUIET ENJOYMENT AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF THE COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. Unlimit makes no representations or warranties that the Services (including the Unlimit Content) will be uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected or that the Services are free from viruses, worms or other harmful components. If your use of the Services results directly or indirectly in the need for servicing or replacing equipment or data, Unlimit is not responsible for those costs. Unlimit also makes no representations or warranties as to whether the information accessible via the Services (including the Unlimit Library and any information posted by Users or third parties), is accurate, complete, current, reliable or truthful. Unlimit assumes no responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery or failure to store any user communications or personalization settings.

2. Nothing on the Services shall be considered an endorsement, representation or warranty with respect to any User or third party, whether in regard to its website, products, services, experience, recruiting, hiring or otherwise. No advice or information obtained by any User from Unlimit or its personnel shall create any warranty not expressly provided for in these Terms of Use. You agree that any reliance on materials/information posted by Users or on any other form of communication with Users will be at your own risk. Unlimit acts as, among other things, a portal for the online distribution and publication of User submitted information and has no obligation to screen communications or information in advance and is not responsible for screening or monitoring User posted material or information, although it reserves the right to do so.

3. No Guaranty of ResultsUnlimit makes no representations or guarantees regarding the effectiveness or timeliness of the Services in meeting objectives of Users. Unlimit does not guarantee that Documents created, checked or reviewed using the Services, including Documents based on the Unlimit Library, will result in an agreement, contract or successful application, for whatever reason made, made by any User or third party.

10. Limitation of liability

1. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER UNLIMIT NOR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING, OR DELIVERING THE SERVICES WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUES, LOST SAVINGS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OF USE OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), PRODUCT LIABILITY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT UNLIMIT OR ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

2. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, UNLIMIT‘S MAXIMUM LIABILITY TO YOU ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OF USE OR FROM THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICES SHALL BE LIMITED TO, IN THE AGGREGATE, THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO UNLIMIT FOR USE OF THE SERVICES OR U.S. $50.00 IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD ANY PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS TO UNLIMIT, AS APPLICABLE.

3. BECAUSE USER AUTHENTICATION OVER THE INTERNET IS DIFFICULT, UNLIMIT CANNOT AND DOES NOT CONFIRM EACH USER’S IDENTITY. WE ARE NOT INVOLVED IN USER-TO-USER DEALINGS NOR DO WE CONTROL THE BEHAVIOR OF USERS OF THE SERVICES. THEREFORE, IN THE EVENT THAT YOU HAVE A DISPUTE WITH ONE OR MORE USERS, YOU RELEASE UNLIMIT (AND OUR AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES) FROM CLAIMS, DEMANDS AND DAMAGES OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED AND UNSUSPECTED, DISCLOSED AND UNDISCLOSED, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SUCH DISPUTES.

11. Priority rights

1. Unlimit Intellectual Property. The Services and the Unlimit Content (including the Unlimit Library) are the sole property of Unlimit and/or its affiliates or its licensors and is protected by Canadian copyright and international treaties. Unlimit reserves for itself and its licensors all right, title and interest in and to the Services, including all intellectual property rights therein. “Unlimit ” and the SciFi Hive™ design logo are registered service or trademarks of Unlimit. All related products and service names, design marks and slogans are also the service marks or trademarks of Unlimit. In addition, the “look” and “feel” of the Services (including color combinations, button shapes, layout, design and all other graphical elements) are protected by Unlimit‘s trademarks, service marks and copyrights. You agree that the Services and any software used in connection with the Services contain proprietary and confidential information that is protected by applicable intellectual property and other laws.

2. Permissions to the Unlimit Content. Subject to your compliance with these Terms of Use, Unlimit grants to you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license, with no right to sublicense, to (a) access and view the Unlimit Content, and (b) use the Unlimit Library to create your Documents, solely in connection with your permitted use of the Services.

3. Permissions to Your User Content. Subject to Unlimit’s rights in and to the Unlimit Content (including the Unlimit Library), each User retains ownership of his or her User Content. However, in order to make your User Content available on the Services and to provide you the Services, Unlimit needs certain rights to your User Content. As such, by submitting any User Content into the Services, including Documents, you grant to Unlimit a worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, royalty-free, fully-paid up, perpetual, irrevocable right and license, without compensation or further notice to you: (a) to use, reproduce, distribute, adapt (including without limitation edit, modify, translate, and reformat), create derivative works of, publicly display and publicly perform such User Content, and the contents of such User Content, in any media now known or hereafter developed, for Unlimit‘s business, marketing and promotional purposes and (b) to sublicense the foregoing rights, through multiple tiers, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law; provided however, that in each case, with respect to the Documents you submit, such rights shall be subject to any restrictions or limitations established by you in connection with your creation or maintenance of such Document (for example, if you limit availability of your Document, Unlimit will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the availability of your Document complies with the settings you selected). By way of further explanation, Unlimit would not be able to perform many of the services we offer without your granting Unlimit these rights. For example, without the right to “adapt,” we would be unable to make the necessary changes to the User Content so that the User Content meets our technical criteria; without the right to reproduce, we would be unable to make copies of the User Content on our servers to post the User Content. As noted, this license is non-exclusive (so you can license your User Content to others), worldwide (as the Internet is global in its reach), fully-paid up and royalty-free (so that we do not have to pay you for posting your User Content) and sublicenseable through multiple tiers (so that we can use our subcontractors to provide Services).

4. Your responsibility for User Content. For each item of User Content, you represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary for you to grant the licenses granted in this section and that such User Content and your provision thereof to and through the Services comply with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for verifying any and all information contained in your User Content, including, without limitation, confirming your own data, terms or language, and that Unlimit is not responsible for correcting any information provided by you to any third party.

5. DMCA/Copyright PolicyUnlimit respects copyright law and expects its users to do the same. It is Unlimit’s policy to terminate in appropriate circumstances Users who repeatedly infringe or are believed to be repeatedly infringing the rights of copyright holders.

12. Fitness for use

Unlimit makes no representation that materials on these Services are appropriate or available for use in any particular location. Those who choose to access the Services do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

13. Dispute resolution

A. Individuals. If you are an individual, the provisions of this Section 13.A apply to you with respect to any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes“):

1. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any Disputes will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Unlimit agree that the Canadian Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms of Use, and that you and Unlimit are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Use.

2. Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 13.A(1) above: (i) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.

3. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the Canadian Arbitration Association (“CAA“) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “CAA Rules“) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms of Use. The CAA Rules are available at canadianarbitrationassociation.ca or by calling 1-800-856-5154. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to CAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the CAA Rules. The CAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at canadianarbitrationassociation.ca.

Any arbitration hearings will take place in the area where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.

4. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the CAA Rules, and we won’t seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration we’ll pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.

5. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 13.A(2) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and 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. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.

6. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND UNLIMIT 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, if the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another 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 Section 13.A “Dispute Resolution; Individuals” shall be null and void.

7. Effect of Changes on Arbitration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms of Use, if Unlimit changes any of the terms of this Section 13.A “Dispute Resolution; Individuals” after the date you most recently accepted these Terms of Use, you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email to info@scifihive.com) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or in the date of Unlimit’s email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and Unlimit in accordance with the terms of this Section 13.A “Dispute Resolution; Individuals” as of the date you most recently accepted these Terms of Use.

8. Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 13. A(6) of these Terms of Use (“Class Action Waiver“), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms of Use will still apply.

B. Legal Entities. If you are a company or other legal entity, the provisions of this Section 13.B apply to you with respect to any Disputes:

The exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes will be the state and federal courts located in the province of Alberta, Canada, and you and Unlimit each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.856

 

14. General terms

1. Entire Agreement. These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and Unlimit and govern your use of the Services, superseding any prior agreements between you and Unlimit with respect to the Services.

2. User Remedies. You acknowledge that, except as expressly provided elsewhere in these Terms of Use, your only right with respect to any dissatisfaction with any modification or discontinuation of Services made by Unlimit or any policies or practices in providing the Services, including without limitation any change in content or any change in the amount or type of fees or charges associated with the Services, is to cancel your subscription to the Services or your account. In no event shall you seek or be entitled to rescission, injunctive or other equitable relief, or to enjoin or restrain the operation of the Services, exploitation of any advertising or other materials issued in connection therewith, or exploitation of the Services or any content or other material used or displayed through the Services.

3. Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Unlimit (and its officers, directors, employees and agents) from and against any third party claims, actions or demands (including, without limitation, costs, damages and reasonable legal and accounting fees) alleging or resulting from or in connection with your use of the Services, Documents posted by you on the Site or distributed by you through the Services or your breach of these Terms of Use. Unlimit shall use reasonable efforts to provide you prompt notice of any such claim, suit, or proceeding and may assist you, at your expense, in defending any such claim, suit or proceeding.

5. Waiver and Severability of Terms. The failure of Unlimit to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms of Use 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 Terms of Use remain in full force and effect.

6. Amendment. We reserve the right to update or amend these Terms of Use at any time at our sole discretion. If we do, we will let you know by posting updated Terms of Use to the Sites and/or through other communications. If you continue to use the Services after we have posted updated Terms of Use it means that you accept and agree to the changes. If you don’t agree to be bound by the changes, you may not use the Services anymore. If applicable to you, the only exception is for changes to the “Dispute Resolution; Individuals” section, for which you have followed the process in Section 13.A(7).

7. Term and Termination. These Terms of Use are effective until terminated. Unlimit, at its sole discretion, may terminate your access to or use of the Services, at any time and for any reason. Such termination, including deactivation or deletion of your account, and all related User Content may happen without prior notice. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Unlimit shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Services or to any User Content and shall not be required to make such User Content available to you after any termination. Sections 6-14 shall survive such termination.

8. Notice. For purposes of notices about the Services to you, notice shall consist of an email from Unlimit to the email address associated with your account, regardless of any other information we may have. Unlimit also may, at its option, communicate with you through your account or through other means including email, mobile number, telephone, or delivery services including the Canada Postal Service. Unlimit shall have no liability associated with or arising from your failure to maintain accurate contact or other information, including, but not limited to, liability your failure to receive important information about our Services.

9. Customer Service.
