REGISTRATION & ACCOUNT OWNERSHIP

Registration Information: When you sign-up for an Accounts or add any Accounts contact to the Triple3 Accounts or "Register", you will be required to provide the data required in our registration forms. The registration data may include, but is not limited to, your or any of your Accounts contacts full legal name, company name, telephone number, email addresses, and mailing address. When you provide the registration data, you represent that (a) the information you are providing is true, accurate, current and complete (b) you will maintain and promptly update the registration data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete (c) you and all Accounts contacts are over the age of 18 and are of the legal age in your country required for entering into contractual obligations, such as this Agreement (d) if you are registering on behalf of a corporation or company, you are fully authorized to enter into and bind the corporation or company to all of the terms of this Agreement and (e) your use of the services will not violate any applicable laws. You may update the registration data in the Client Portal or by supplying in writing the request. Unless pursuant to any section herein, in no event will Triple3 update, edit or otherwise modify the registration data. If we discover, are made aware of, or have reasonable suspicion to believe that any of the registration data is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, in our sole discretion, we may suspend or close the Triple3 Accounts, with immediate effect and without prior notice, and refuse all current or future use of the Services by you and your Accounts contacts.

When you Register, we recommend that you provide us with two email addresses at which we can reach you. At least one of the email addresses should be an email address that is independent of the Services and not hosted by Triple3. If you don't provide us with two email addresses (at least one of which is independent of the Services and not hosted by Triple3), you may not receive important communications we may send to you regarding your Accounts, such as those related to Accounts closure, suspension and the like. We rely on you to monitor your email, and you agree that we may communicate important information to you using the email address you've provided to us.

Accounts Ownership: (a) The highest authority of a single specific Accounts is the Accounts Owner. The Accounts Owner is appointed during the registration process, on the initial order form on our Website or other paper contracts. Once the Accounts Owner appointment has been made, it may not be changed unless by Triple3. We strongly recommend that the person appointed as Accounts owner be someone that owns the domain name(s) being hosted on the Triple3 Accounts. We do not recommend that an employee, contractor or other transient person or party be the owner of the Triple3 Accounts, as that has the potential to result in a dispute over ownership between the parties if/when the parties sever ties. In those cases, we may not be able to assist the other party with accessing the Triple3 Accounts without a U.S. court order so mandating. In situations in which Accounts ownership is disputed, Triple3 reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to suspend or close the Triple3 Accounts in question. The Accounts owner is responsible for and agrees to assume all liability for (i) management of the Accounts, service and all content associated with the Accounts; (ii) any and all claims or complaints served upon Triple3 in reference to the Content; (iii) any and all activity that occurs under or is otherwise associated with the Accounts; (iv) the actions of all Accounts contacts; and (v) payment of all monies owed on the Triple3 Accounts. (b) The Accounts owner name (i.e. the first and last name), as well as the names of any Accounts contacts, must be that of a living person, whose legal name is the first and last name provided to Triple3. Additional information and documentation may be required and may be requested at any time. Triple3 may, without having any obligation to do so, require certain proof of (i) the identity of the Accounts owner and/or any Accounts contact; and (ii) any of the registration data, including, but not limited to, requiring proof of address and verification of email address. Use of business, organization or company names for the Accounts owner or an Accounts contact name on a Non-Corporate Accounts is prohibited and constitutes a breach of this agreement. In the event of any such breach of this agreement, the (Triple3 Accounts may be suspended until you have either properly had the Accounts designated as a corporate Accounts, or requested a transfer of the Accounts to the legal first and last name of a living person. If you fail to do so within the time frame specified in our communications regarding the breach, the Triple3 Accounts may be closed without prior or further notice. (c) In the future, Triple3 may permit company ownership of Accounts. At this time, however, we do not. If/when we permit company ownership of Triple3 Accounts, additional information and documentation will be required and may be requested at any time. In such case, Triple3 may, without having any obligation to do so, require proof of (i) the corporation's name and corporate status and/or (ii) any of the registration data, including, but not limited to, requiring a copy of the corporation's government-stamped articles of incorporation, proof of address and verification of email address. Triple3 reserves the right to deny any request to designate a company as the Accounts owner, for any reason or no reason, at any time. (d) Accounts contacts have full access to the Accounts, including, but not limited to billing information, payment history, billing statements and support requests. Accounts contacts also have access to the Service and may modify Client Portal and Service controls (including passwords) or make support related inquiries on behalf of the Triple3 Accounts. Some Accounts contacts may add a Service to the Accounts at any time. Accounts contacts may not close or reopen a Triple3 Accounts or service.

NOTICES AND COMMUNICATIONS

Methods of Communication: You consent to receive electronic communications (email) from Triple3 concerning your use of the services and concerning Triple3 products and service offerings. The communications may be those that Triple3 is required to send to you by law concerning the services. The communications may also be those that Triple3 sends to you for other reasons. Triple3 may provide these communications to you by sending an email to the email address you provided in connection with the Triple3 Accounts or by posting the Communications to our Website. You also consent to receive Communications by telephone or postal mail sent to any postal address or telephone number you provided in connection with the Triple3 Accounts, though we are not obligated to use these mediums to send communications to you. You may change the email, postal address or telephone number Triple3 has on file for the Triple3 Accounts through the Client Portal. You may, without payment of any additional fee, withdraw your consent to receive required communications by opening a ticket with our Customer Service Department using our Ticketing System. Be sure to include your full name, Account number, primary domain name, primary email address and a valid Invoice Number or by sending a request to Triple3 at Post Office Box 0416, Saint Ansgar, Iowa 50472-0416, Attention: Customer Service. However, if you withdraw such consent, understand that Triple3 reserves the right to close the Triple3 Accounts. Any notice Customer wishes to send Triple3 must be in writing via either Support Request or to the Customer Service Address. Triple3 is not responsible for and shall not be liable for any late, lost, misdirected, intercepted, unsuccessful or otherwise failed efforts to send any communications or required communications to you or any other person or party.

DOMAIN TRANSFERS

(a) When you initiate the transfer of any domain name to Triple3, you represent and warrant that you are listed as the Registrant or Administrative contact for the domain name in the WhoIs database. For instructions on transferring a domain name to Triple3, please contact a Technical Advisor using our Ticketing System. You will be required to pay Triple3 the first year's registration fee upon initiating the domain name transfer to Triple3. Domain name transfers to Triple3 generally take five to seven business days to complete, unless the request is denied by your current registrar. It is your responsibility to timely address any issues that may arise concerning the transfer of any domain name to Triple3 to complete the transfer. Once a domain name transfer to Triple3 is complete, and Triple3 becomes the new Registration Service Provider of record for the domain name, you will not be able to transfer the domain name to another registrar for at least sixty days, unless in accordance with a decision or rule issued to Triple3 by ICANN, the governing body for domain names. By transferring or attempting to transfer any domain name into Triple3 systems, you are reaffirming your unconditional acceptance of all of the terms of this Agreement.

(b) For information on transferring a domain name away from Triple3, please contact your Triple3 Technical Advisor using our Ticketing System. The timeframe for completing domain name transfers away from Triple3 to another registrar varies depending on a variety of factors. It is your responsibility to timely address any issues that may arise concerning the transfer of any domain name away from Triple3 to complete the transfer. We reserve the right to deny outright any request to transfer a domain name away from Triple3 received while the Triple3 Accounts is past due or otherwise not in good standing.

DOMAIN MANAGEMENT

When you register a domain name through our Website or transfer a domain name into our systems, by default, domain privacy will be disabled/off and the Accounts Owner's Registration Data may be used to populate the Registrant, Administrative, Technical and Billing contact fields (the "Registration Record") for the domain name. The default information we use for the Registration Record may not necessarily reflect the desired information and it is your sole responsibility to update the Registration Record whenever necessary. Your willful provision of inaccurate or unreliable information, your failure to keep the domain's Registration Record up-to-date, or any failure to respond to inquiries by us addressed to the email address of the Registrant, Administrative, Billing or Technical contact shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and be a basis for cancellation of the domain name. If you need to verify or change the domain's Registration Record, please contact a Technical Advisor using our Ticketing System. Triple3 is not responsible for lapsed registration due to outdated Registration Record data, payment failure or any other issues. Any reminder notices we may send you for domain name renewals are sent as a courtesy only. It is your responsibility to ensure your domain name registration is current. Triple3 is not responsible for your failure to renew a domain name or failure to remind you to renew a domain name.

DATA BACKUP STORAGE LIMITS

Storage limits are based on your data backup plan. Each plan is configured with a pre-determined allocated storage limit. We will send you notifications when your limit is nearing its capacity, at which time you may either purchase additional storage or manage your backup as to not go over your limit.

EXTERNAL LINKS

Triple3 may provide access to resources and links to other websites. When you access a non-Triple3 website, even one that may contain the Triple3 logo, you leave the Triple3 Website and understand that it is independent of Triple3 and that Triple3 has not reviewed nor is it responsible for the content of any linked websites. Triple3 makes no representations whatsoever about such resources or other websites. The inclusion of any link to a website does not imply endorsement by Triple3 of the website or their entities, products, or services.

CONDITIONS OF GENERAL SUPPORT

We offer a variety of channels through which you can reach us for support to help you utilize the Services. We may be reached through the following channels: telephone, online ticketing, online chat, website contact forms, Client Portal, social media Accounts and email. Response times may vary. Not all channels of support are available at all times. All inquiries are handled in the order in which they were received. Triple3 does not guarantee the availability or accessibility of all of the channels of support. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to change, replace or entirely cease offering support through any one or all of the Channels of Support, at any time, for any reason or no reason, and without prior notice.

Triple3 takes Accounts security very seriously. This is why Triple3 cannot provide Accounts-specific information or assistance to any persons other than the verified Accounts owner and/or Accounts contact(s). Accounts-specific information is considered any nonpublic information about the Triple3 Accounts, which may include, but is not limited to, Accounts owner name or contact information, billing or payment information, balances owed, the length of Service, or types of Services being used. We are unable to offer Accounts-specific information or assistance via any social media channels. Any person other than the Accounts owner or an Accounts contact that contacts us seeking Accounts-specific information or assistance will be informed that they are not listed in our records and that we cannot provide the Accounts-specific information or assistance being sought, regardless of any purported relationship such person may claim to have with the Accounts owner or an Accounts contact. Notwithstanding the foregoing, even if a person represents him/herself to be the Accounts owner or an Accounts contact, before we will provide any Accounts-specific information or assistance to such person, he/she will be required to validate that he/she is the person he/she is representing him/herself to be, by providing a valid Invoice Number to be ("Authenticated"). If such person is unable to authenticate, for whatever reason, we will be unable to provide any Accounts-specific information or assistance. We can't make exceptions to this policy, so please don't ask. However, we are entitled to rely on the authentication information provided by individuals who contact us and successfully authenticate into the Triple3 Accounts.

STATEMENT OF SUPPORT

Triple3 will provide complimentary ticket-based support for the products and services we provide as a courtesy, without obligation or liability. Priority support is available through our IT department on a contractual or hourly basis. Triple3 will inform the Accounts Owner or Accounts Contact prior to any charges being incurred or applied.

As a courtesy, we maintain a database of articles and guides that contain information that may prove useful to you. We make no guarantee, whatsoever, as to the feasibility, accurateness, completeness or helpfulness of any of the information available in these guides. Your use of any of this information is completely at your own risk. It is recommended that you backup your content before attempting to use any of this information. In no event shall Triple3 be held liable to you or any other person or party for any loss incurred in connection with the use of the information in these guides.

We maintain a zero-tolerance policy with regards to abuse of our support system. Abuse of our support system may include, but is not limited to, engaging in any threatening, abusive, offensive, defaming, harmful, profane, harassing, or unreasonably excessive communication (whether written or oral) with Triple3 via our channels of support or anywhere else. Any abuse of our support system, whether originating from the Accounts owner or any Accounts contact, shall constitute a breach of this agreement and the Triple3 Accounts will be subject to closure with immediate effect and without prior notice.

In the interest of maintaining a functional, high-class, professional service, we have a few other conditions for users of our services. While some of these conditions may seem harsh, please understand that they are necessary given the ever-evolving nature of the World Wide Web. Some of our competitors may not require their customers to comply with such conditions, and if any of our existing or potential customers are unwilling or unable to comply with these conditions, we will respectfully invite them to seek service elsewhere. (b) The following represents a partial listing of activities that are prohibited when using the services, any of which has the potential to result in Accounts or service suspension or closure without prior or further notice.

• Any Content or website that, in our judgment, is designed or used to reverse engineer, hack into, invade or otherwise gain unauthorized access into any of our systems, communication devices or resources, or any other systems, communication devices or resources (including, but not limited to security probing activities or other attempts to evaluate the security integrity of a network or host system without permission)

Passwords: (a) If you don't keep your password safe, you might just get hacked. Don't say we didn't warn you. Notwithstanding any of the terms of this agreement, you are required to and solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of the passwords used to access any Triple3 Accounts, the Services, and the Peripherals. Any and all activity that occurs under your username and password will be considered done by you and you bear sole responsibility for that activity. Triple3 shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from or otherwise related to your failure to maintain control over access to your username or password, the Triple3 Accounts, the Services or the Peripherals, whether due to your own negligence or for any other reason. As a rule-of-thumb, it's best that you change all of your passwords periodically and at any time you think that the Triple3 Accounts, the Service, any of the Peripherals or any of your other usernames or passwords have become compromised. (b) Passwords like "password" and “123456” are too common and are pretty easy to figure out. You are required to and solely responsible for employing industry standard best security practices, such as using secure passwords. If you use an insecure password, the Triple3 Accounts, the Service and/or the Peripherals are likely to be hacked or otherwise compromised, and you will be solely liable in any such case. Audits may be done to check for weak passwords. However, in no event should you rely on the performance of any possible audit by Triple3. If an audit is performed, and it is determined that your password is weak, your Triple3 Accounts may be suspended or you may be given time to update your password to a more secure password. (c) We may be able to help you recover your Client Portal password. In the event that you forget your Client Portal password, there are two methods you may use to recover it. You may either use the "Forgot your password?" link at the login page of our Website, or contact your Triple3 IT Support to request a copy of the Profile Update Form. If you use the "Forgot your password?" link, we will send a password reset link to the primary email address we have on file for you. Be advised, before we send the password reset link, you'll be required to provide us with the primary domain on the Triple3 Accounts and the primary email address we have on file for you. If you do not have access to the primary email address we have on file for you, or if you do not know or remember the primary email address, domain or both, your only recourse for recovering your password will be to submit the Profile Update Form along with a copy of your valid government-issued photo identification. If your submission is incomplete, illegible or if you provide documentation that is expired or which we have reasonable suspicion to believe is a forgery, we may, at our sole discretion, reject your request, require additional documentation, or block all access to the Triple3 Accounts or the Services.

Additional Usage Restrictions: (a) Any Content that, in our judgment, is questionable or that is found to breach any section of this Agreement, or any law to which Triple3 is subject, to any degree, may be removed from our servers (or otherwise disabled), at our sole discretion, with or without notice and without obligation. The Triple3 Accounts may also be suspended or closed in any such case. (b) You agree to use the services in a manner that does not interfere with or otherwise disrupt service to other Triple3 Customers nor any of our systems. Triple3 reserves the right to suspend or close the Triple3 Accounts, without prior notice, if, in our judgment, such interference or disruption is determined by Triple3 to exist. Some examples of such interference or disruption include but are not limited to, excessive disk space use, CPU cycles, or bandwidth, and any customer action that has caused Triple3's servers or any of our IP ranges to be placed on any blacklist or any other filtering software systems used by companies on the internet. (c) For our purposes, simply put, SPAM includes, but is not limited to, the sending of unsolicited bulk email, often in abundance. To be clear, we don't allow spamming on any services on our systems. To that end, please be advised that the following limits apply to the number of emails that can be sent through any Triple3 email service. An excess of these limits is a breach of this Agreement and the Triple3 Accounts is subject to suspension or closure, without prior notice. (d) You are not permitted to knowingly allow any other website or hosting servers to link to content stored on Triple3's systems. (e) Triple3 will remain the sole owner of all IP network addresses within Triple3's network. You are not permitted to modify any TCP/IP configuration that will conflict with, or otherwise disrupt network service, by using configurations not allocated to you by Triple3. We will use our best efforts to maintain permanency of any allocated IP address, however Triple3 reserves the right to change your underlying IP network address for any reason (including, but not limited to, for upgrades, security provisioning, or other network migration service), or for no reason at all, without notice. Any request for allocation of additional IP address(es) may be subject to justification. Justification requirements are subject to change. We reserve the right to reject any request for an additional IP address(es) based on insufficient justification or current IP address utilization. (f) If we detect repeated failed login attempts, we may, without obligation of any kind, ban network access from the source of those failed attempts, and you'll have to contact us to fix it. (g) MySQL resource utilization refers to the amount of Triple3's MySQL server resources for use by application and MySQL code customer is running inside any service. The MySQL Server does not provide a facility to measure individual resource utilization in a shared resource environment. Depending on Customer utilization, Triple3 may, at its sole discretion, place customer into a MySQL container.

In the event of any such closure of the Triple3 Accounts, you will not be eligible for a refund of any fees and you may be prohibited from reopening the Triple3 Accounts, opening a new Triple3 Accounts or accessing any existing Triple3 Accounts. In other words, pay us on time and don't be stupid or do anything that breaches or otherwise violates any section of this agreement, and we shouldn't have to close the Triple3 Accounts. You agree that Triple3 shall not be liable, in any way, for any closure pursuant to this section of this agreement.

We recommend that you run very regular backups. As well, we also recommend that you ensure you have retrieved all content and made all necessary backups before submitting any request to close the Triple3 Accounts or any of the Services. You agree to hold Triple3 harmless from and against any and all claims, losses or damages arising from any closure of the Triple3 Accounts. Any and all sections in this agreement which impose obligations continuing in their nature shall survive closure or otherwise continue to remain in full force and effect even after Sccount closure. You are not permitted to access the Triple3 Accounts or any of the Services formerly associated with the Triple3 Accounts following any closure. (b) Upon any suspension of the Triple3 Accounts, all Services associated with the Triple3 Accounts will be suspended or otherwise made inaccessible until and unless all issues are addressed and resolved by you, to our satisfaction, and within the time frame we specify.

You agree to hold Triple3 harmless from and against any and all claims, losses or damages arising from any suspension of the Triple3 Accounts or the individual Service.

Reopening a Service or Accounts: (a) Unfortunately, once closed, most of the services may not be reopened; you will need to place a new order and have new services provisioned. The only service that may be reopened is an unexpired domain name registration if the Triple3 Accounts is open and in good standing. To reopen an unexpired domain name registration, simply send us a support request asking us to reopen the domain name registration. (b) The Accounts owner is the only person authorized to re-open the Triple3 Accounts. To reopen the Triple3 Accounts, the Accounts owner must telephone our billing department (during our Billing Department's normal business hours) and authenticate. If the Accounts owner is unable to authenticate, he/she must complete the Profile Update Request Form in order for us to proceed with the re-opening of the Triple3 Accounts. Any unpaid or otherwise outstanding balance must be paid before we will complete any re-opening. Re-opening an Accounts does not mean that we are willing or able to restore your Content.

CONTENT

Content Made Available for Inclusion on the Service: (a) We're not responsible for any of the content you, your Accounts contacts or your users post on or via the services; you are. You, not Triple3, agree to assume all responsibility for and risk associated with all content you and your party submit, transmit, email, upload, link to, display, disseminate, facilitate access to or otherwise make available through or for inclusion on the services, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness, appropriateness, legality or usefulness of such content. You warrant and represent that you possess all legal rights to, or have obtained all necessary permissions to use any and all content you make available, use in connection with or provide to Triple3 in connection with your use of the services, and none of the content you make available, use in connection with or provide to Triple3 in connection with your use of the service infringes on any right of any person, firm, entity or party. You are solely responsible for protecting your assets as well as your rights to any of the intellectual property you provide to Triple3, and Triple3 shall have no responsibility, whatsoever, with regard to it. (b) You understand and agree that Triple3 is solely acting as a common carrier in its capacity of providing the service hereunder, is not a publisher of any material or information and has no right to edit or censor the material at the servers in use by customer (unless pursuant to any local, state or federal law, or any section of this agreement). Triple3 is not responsible nor pre-screens any of customer's website content. All material submitted for publication through the Service will be considered publicly accessible. Triple3 does not endorse nor screen in advance material submitted to Triple3 for publication via the service. Triple3's publication of material submitted by the customer does not create any express or implied approval by Triple3 of such material, nor does it indicate that such material complies with the terms of this agreement. (c) We do not provide backup services for free. WE REPEAT: WE DO NOT PROVIDE BACKUP SERVICES FOR FREE. You may subscribe to a Triple3 Backup Accounts if you wish to have your information on our servers backed up. We are not responsible for content residing on or about the service. In no event shall Triple3 be held liable for any loss of any content. It is your sole responsibility to maintain appropriate backups of your content unless there is a backup service agreement between the Accounts owner and Triple3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on some occasions, and in certain circumstances, with absolutely no obligation and only as a courtesy, upon a customer submitting an emergency restoration request, we may be able to restore some or all of your data that has been deleted as of a certain date and time when we have backed up data for our own purposes. Triple3 makes no guarantee that the data you need will be available. An emergency restoration is intended for data recovery of specific files and/or databases, and will NOT restore your server or website to a previous version. We may reject any emergency restoration request, at any time, for any reason or no reason. We may reject any emergency restoration request received during any period when the Triple3 Accounts is past due, suspended, closed or under investigation for any breach of any section of this Agreement. Backups are as-is and are not designed for litigation purposes. (d) Any mistakes, accidents, omissions, interruptions, delays, errors or defects in transmission or Service which are caused or contributed to, directly or indirectly, by an act or omission of the customer or by the use of customer-provided facilities or equipment, or by the use of facilities or equipment furnished by any other person using customer's facilities which are connected to Triple3's facilities, shall not result in the imposition of any liability upon Triple3 and customer shall pay to Triple3 any reasonable costs, expenses, damages, fees or penalties incurred by Triple3 as a result thereof, including costs of local exchange company, labor and materials. (e) If we receive three or more complaints (of any variety) concerning any content hosted on or otherwise displayed via your services, we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to either close the Triple3 Accounts or suspend the Triple3 Accounts and require you to permanently cease hosting any specific website or content on our systems. If we elect not to close the Triple3 Accounts, directive, as to remedy, will be given in our communications to you concerning the matter. If you do not adhere to the said directive, the Triple3 Accounts may be closed without prior or further notice.

(a) You may not use the service in any manner that infringes upon any copyright. Such infringement may include, but is not limited to selling counterfeit goods, unauthorized copying of photographs, books, music, videos, or any other copyright protected work. It is our policy to promptly investigate compliant notices of alleged copyright infringement that are provided to us in writing regarding content hosted on or otherwise displayed via our systems. Our response to such notices may include removing or disabling access to the content or website claimed to be the subject of infringing activity, without prior notice, and without regard to the complaint's substance or merit (or lack thereof). Triple3 reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to close any Triple3 Accounts for which Triple3 receives three or more copyright infringement complaints, without prior notice and without a refund of any fees.

(b) Any person or party who wishes to file a claim of copyright infringement regarding content hosted on or otherwise displayed via our systems may file notice via either email, using our Contact Form, postal mail or using our Ticketing System. Any person or party who requires assistance filing a claim of copyright infringement should consult or hire a lawyer or other legal professional for assistance. NOTE: Any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material is infringing, or that it was removed or blocked through mistake or misidentification, is liable for any resulting damages (including, but not limited to costs and attorney's fees) incurred by the alleged infringer, the copyright holder or its licensee, or the service provider.

(c) The law requires very specific language be present in any notice of alleged copyright infringement. As set forth in the DMCA, in order to be effective, a notice of copyright infringement must include all of the following:

• The physical or electronic signature of complaining party
• Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site
• Identification of the content that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the content (i.e. the specific URLs where the allegedly infringing activity is said to be taking place)
• Information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address at which the complaining party may be contacted
• A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law
• A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed

(d) A counter notification is a legal request for Triple3 to re-enable or otherwise restore access to the material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity. The law requires very specific language be present in any counter notice. As set forth in the DMCA, in order to be effective, a counter notice must include all of the following:

• The physical or electronic signature of the alleged infringer or an agent authorized to act on behalf of the alleged infringer (such as an attorney)
• Identification of the material that was removed (or to which access was disabled) and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled
• A statement under penalty of perjury that the alleged infringer (or his/her authorized agent) has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled
• The alleged infringer's (or his/her authorized agent's) name, address, and telephone number, and a statement that the alleged infringer (or his/her authorized agent) consents to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which the address is located, or if the alleged infringer's (or his/her authorized agent's) address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which the service provider may be found

(e) Upon receipt of an infringement counter notice that substantially complies with the counter notification requirements set forth in the DMCA, the DMCA requires us to provide the complaining party with a full copy of the counter notice provided to us by the alleged infringer or his/her authorized agent. The DMCA also requires us to permit the alleged infringer to restore access to the material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity, within no less than ten business days and no more than fourteen business days following our receipt of a compliant counter notice, unless we first receive notice that the complaining party has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in infringing activity. Be advised, regardless of whether or not the complaining party files an action seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in infringing activity, the complaining party may still maintain the right to seek relief in a court of law. It is our policy to adhere to all orders of the court. Any court order issued in connection with a complaint that has been filed against the alleged infringer with which we are served will, with immediate effect, supersede any allowance we may have made permitting the alleged infringer to re-enable or otherwise restore the access to the material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity. A filing of a copyright infringement counter notice may result in litigation between and among the parties.

EFFECTS OF OUR ACTIONS

(a) In some cases, when we remove or disable access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity or that, in our judgment, breaches any section of this agreement, that action may cause some elements or areas of your website or the Service to malfunction or become unavailable. In no event shall Triple3 be held liable in any case and you are solely responsible for repairing or redressing such an issue.

(b) If we are unable to immediately access content claimed to be the subject of infringing activity or that, in our judgment, breaches any section of this Agreement, or if our attempt to remove or disable access to said content or website is unsuccessful we may immediately suspend the website or Services upon which the content is displayed. In any such case, you will not be permitted to re-enable or otherwise restore access to the website or Services until you have complied with all of the terms set out in our notice to you concerning the issue.

(c) If any content or website is disabled or removed pursuant to Triple3's obligations as a service provider under the DMCA, or pursuant to any section of this Agreement, re-enabling or otherwise restoring access to that content or website is prohibited until and unless you are otherwise notified by Triple3, via a support request. In any event where the content or website is re-enabled or otherwise restored (whether on the original Triple3 Accounts or a different Triple3 Accounts), absent Triple3's express authorization as set forth in this agreement, the Triple3 Accounts will be closed with immediate effect and without prior or further notice.

(d) You must immediately remove or disable access to any duplicative or derivative works of any content or website Triple3 may disable pursuant to any section of this agreement, whether or not such content has the same title, name or label as the offending content, is in any other format, form, size or is in or on any other directory or location on our systems. Your failure to do so could subject you to civil liability pursuant to U.S. federal law, and could also result in the suspension or closure of the Triple3 Accounts.

TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT CLAIMS

Such infringement may include but is not limited to selling counterfeit goods, unauthorized copying of photographs, logos, designs or other lawfully protected works.

Our response to such notices may include removing or disabling access to the material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity, without prior notice, and without regard to the complaint's substance (or lack thereof). Presently, there is no counter notification process in place for trademark law. If you wish to object to the complaint filed against you, you will need to take the matter up with the trademark owner in a court of law. In any case, you hold Triple3 completely harmless in all matters concerning our action with respect to any trademark infringement complaint. Triple3 reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to close any Triple3 Accounts for which Triple3 receives three or more trademark infringement complaints, without prior notice and without a refund of any fees.

You agree that you will not bring or participate in any class-action lawsuit against Triple3 or any of its partners, employees, subsidiaries, officers, licensors or affiliates. Each of us agrees that we will not bring a claim under the Agreement more than two years after the time that the claim accrued. (b) By using the Service, you agree to submit to binding arbitration. In the event any dispute or claim arises against Triple3, such dispute or claim shall be handled by an arbitrator of Triple3's choosing selected from the American Arbitration Association or National Arbitration Forum in the state of Iowa. Arbitrators shall be attorneys or retired judges and shall be selected pursuant to applicable rules. All decisions rendered by the arbitrator shall be final. The arbitrator's award is final and binding on all parties. The Federal Arbitration Act, and not any state arbitration law, shall govern all arbitration under this Arbitration clause. Otherwise, the laws of the State of Iowa apply to the dispute. The prevailing party in such proceeding shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys' fees and costs incurred in the proceeding from the non-prevailing party, as well as any reasonable attorneys' fees and costs that the prevailing party incurred prior to commencing the proceeding. (c) In no event will Triple3 mediate any dispute or controversy arising between you and any third party. Triple3 is unable to provide any legal advice or assistance. It is not our policy to adjudicate, validate or invalidate the substance, merit (or lack thereof) of any complaint we are served (such as complaints of copyright or trademark infringement, defamation, slander or libel) - such is left to the legal system and courts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, we will, without prior notice, remove or disable any Content or website any court of competent jurisdiction has ordered removed or otherwise disabled for whatever any reason. (d) If you violate any of the terms of this Agreement, any supplemental rules and guidelines, any of the terms of the respective service providers, or any rights of Triple3, we and any other harmed party reserve the right to pursue any and all legal and equitable remedies against you.
