When you click on a link to a Third-Party Service, we will not warn you that you have left the Squadz Properties and are subject to the terms and conditions (including privacy policies) of another website or destination.

You should review applicable terms and policies, including privacy and data gathering practices, of any Third-Party Services, and should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any transaction with any third party.

9.2. App Stores. You acknowledge and agree that the availability of the Application and the Services is dependent on the third party from whom you received the Application license, e.g., the Apple App Store or Google Play ("App Store"). You acknowledge that the Terms are between you and Squadz and not with the App Store. Squadz, not the App Store, is solely responsible for Squadz Properties, including the Application, the content thereof, maintenance, support services, and warranty therefor, and addressing any claims relating thereto (e.g., product liability, legal compliance or intellectual property infringement). In order to use the Application, you must have access to the Internet, and you agree to pay all fees associated with such access. You also agree to pay all fees (if any) charged by the App Store in connection with Squadz Properties, including the Application. You agree to comply with, and your license to use the Application is conditioned upon your compliance with, all applicable third-party terms of agreement (e.g., the App Store's terms and policies) when using Squadz Properties, including the Application.

You may need to provide Squadz with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) ("Payment Provider"), or purchase order information as a condition to signing up for the Services. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card, and you must refer to that agreement and not the Terms to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing Squadz with your credit card number and associated payment information, you agree that Squadz is authorized to immediately invoice your Account for all fees and charges due and payable to Squadz hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Squadz of any change in your billing address or the credit card used for payment hereunder. Squadz reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods, either immediately upon posting on Squadz Properties or by notification to you.

10.2. Service Subscription Fees. You will be responsible for payment of the applicable fee for any Services (each, a "Service Subscription Fee") at the time you create your Account and select your package (each, a "Service Commencement Date"). Except as set forth in the Terms, all fees for the Services are non-refundable and non-transferable. No contract will exist between you and Squadz for the Services until Squadz accepts your order by a confirmatory email, SMS/MMS message, or other appropriate means of communication. Your access to use the Services may be subject to separate third party terms of service and fees, including your mobile network operator's terms of service and fees, including fees charged for data usage and overage, which are your sole responsibility.

10.3. Subscription Renewal. If you have a subscription, your subscription will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with the Terms. After your initial subscription period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically commence on the first day following the end of such period (each a "Renewal Commencement Date") and continue for an additional equivalent period, at Squadz's then-current price for such subscription. If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term; your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period. By subscribing, you authorize Squadz to charge your payment provider immediately, and again at the beginning of any subsequent subscription period. Upon renewal of your subscription, if Squadz does not receive payment from your payment provider, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand, and/or (ii) you agree that Squadz may either terminate or suspend your subscription and continue to attempt to charge your payment provider until payment is received (upon receipt of payment, your account will be activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new subscription commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received).

10.4. Free Trials and Promotions. From time to time, we may offer free trials or other promotions (a "Promotion"). As an example, we may offer Promotions that provide a free Subscription to Services for a certain period of time. You must cancel your subscription (in accordance with Section 10.3) before the end of the Promotion period in order to avoid being automatically charged for Subscription Fees. As another example, we may provide you with our virtual currency without charge. Any such virtual currency is subject to the terms of our Terms of Use. Additional Terms applicable to specific Promotions may be provided at the time of enrollment.

10.5 Messeging Fees. In connection with the Services, you may receive SMS, MMS and other messages. Standard usage charges for SMS, MMS and other data charges may apply and may be billed on your wireless service bill or deducted from your prepaid balance. T-Mobile subscribers: Other charges may apply. For help email support@squadz.com.

10.6 Taxes. Squadz's fees are net of any applicable Sales Tax. If any Services, or payments for any Services, under the Terms are subject to Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Squadz, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Squadz for any liability or expense we may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes.

10.7. Disputes. You must notify us in writing within seven (7) days after receiving your credit card statement, if you dispute any of our charges on that statement or such dispute will be deemed waived. Billing disputes should be notified to the following address: support@squadz.com.

10.8. Refunds. Generally, all charges for purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. We may make an exception if a refund for a subscription offering is requested within fourteen days of the transaction date, or if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds.

For subscribers residing in Arizona, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin, the terms below apply:

You may cancel your subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed.

In the event that you become disabled (such that you are unable to use the services of Squadz) before the end of your subscription period, you shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription which is allocable to the period after your disability by providing the company notice in the same manner as you request a refund as described below.

18. Disputes. Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of Squadz, or to any products or services sold or distributed by Squadz will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Conditions of Use as a court would. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim addressed as follows: MobCast LLC, c/o MobCast LLC, 811 W 7th Street, Los Angeles. CA 90017. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, Inc. under its rules, including (if applicable) the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The JAMS's rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS's rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Likewise, Squadz will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location. We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IF YOU TELL US WITHIN 30 DAYS OF YOUR FIRST DOWNLOAD OR USE OF SQUADZ THAT YOU WANT TO OPT OUT. IF YOU WANT TO OPT OUT, SEND A WRITTEN NOTICE ADVISING US OF YOUR DECISION TO MobCast LLC, 6 Liberty Sq PMB 96493, Boston MA 02109. UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION, YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO HAVE A DISPUTE HEARD BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, OR OTHERWISE TO BE DECIDED BY A COURT OR GOVERNMENTAL TRIBUNAL. If applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph's limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court, subject to your and Squadz's right to appeal the decision that such claim is for relief cannot be brought in arbitration. All other claims will be arbitrated.

19. U.S. Export Controls. You may not use, export, import, or transfer the Squadz Properties except as authorized by U.S. law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which you obtained the Squadz Properties, and any other applicable laws. In particular, but without limitation, the Squadz Properties may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any United States embargoed country or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce's Denied Person's List or Entity List. By using the Squadz Properties, you represent and warrant that (i) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country and (ii) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You also will not use the Squadz Properties for any purpose prohibited by U.S. law, including the development, design, manufacture or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical or biological weapons. You acknowledge and agree that products, services or technology provided by Squadz are subject to the export control laws and regulations of the United States. You will comply with these laws and regulations and will not, without prior U.S. government authorization, export, re-export, or transfer Squadz products, services or technology, either directly or indirectly, to any country in violation of such laws and regulations.

20. No Agency. There is no agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchisor-franchisee relationship between Squadz and any Member of the Service.

21. Governing Law. By using Squadz, you agree that the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the state of Delaware, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern these Conditions of Use and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and Squadz.

22. Headings. The section titles of the Terms are for convenience only and have no structural or legal effect.

23. Waiver and Severability of the Terms. The failure of Squadz to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. Except as provided elsewhere in this agreement, if any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, then that provision will be severed from these Terms and not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

24. Assignment. This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by Squadz without restriction.

25. Other. The Terms are the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and merges all prior discussions between the parties with respect to such subject matter.

Supplemental Terms of Service (Squadz Live)

Updated as of July 20, 2023

  1. These Supplemental Terms of Service supplement and are in addition to the Terms of Service Agreement that you have already agreed to as a Squadz user, and apply only to your use of the Squadz Live service (the "Live Services"). In addition to these Supplemental Terms of Service, your use of the Live Services are governed by the Squadz Terms of Service Agreement (including, but not limited to, as a component of the "Services"), the Squadz Privacy Policy and the Squadz Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. Pursuant to the Squadz Terms of Service Agreement, we reserve the right to modify, amend, or change the Supplemental Terms of Service at any time.

  2. You understand and agree that the Live Services will be provided by The Squadz Group, Inc., and that by accessing the Live Services you will be viewing content that may be provided by either a Squadz or Squadz Group user, and that your content may be viewed by either a Squadz or Squadz Group user.

  3. You understand and agree that the Squadz Group, Inc. will act as the provider of the services and as the controller of any data or content that you provide or generate through the Live Services, and as such, except for the purchases made through Squadz, you understand and agree Squadz will not be liable to you in any way, under any theory of liability, or for any amounts, and any such liability will be governed by the Squadz Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy.

  4. Because the Live Services are hosted separately, certain of your settings in Squadz may not transfer over to the Live Services. For example, hiding your profile in Squadz will not hide your profile on the Live Services, and after hiding your profile on Squadz you may continue to be displayed on leaderboards on the Live Services, or when you use the Live Services for viewing or streaming.

  5. From time to time, as part of the Live Services, you may have the opportunity to buy "Live Credits". For the avoidance of doubt, such Live Credits are "Virtual Items" as set forth in Section 14 of the Squadz Terms of Service Agreement. The Live Credits are usable only on the Live Services, and are not usable on the Squadz platform. Use of the Live Credits is expressly subject to the Gifts section of the Squadz Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. ALL PURCHASES OF THE LIVE CREDITS ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE. UNUSED LIVE CREDITS EXPIRE 180 DAYS FROM THE DATE OF PURCHASE.

  6. To the extent that you receive gifts as part of your use of the Live Services, the receipt of such gifts and the ability to cash out such gifts are governed exclusively by the Squadz Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy; for the avoidance of doubt, you agree to look solely to The Squadz Group, Inc. to resolve any and all issues surrounding your receipt or cash out of any gifts received.
