By accessing the Platform on any computer, mobile phone, tablet, console, or other device, you signify that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms, whether or not you are a registered Platform user.

Arbitration Notice

Unless you opt out of arbitration within 30 days of the date you first agree to these terms by following the opt-out procedure specified in the “Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver” section below, you agree that most disputes between you and FAITH-IDENTITY will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration, and you are waiving your right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding.

Licenses

The Platform uses software that is the property of FAITH-IDENTITY or its suppliers and is protected by U.S. and international copyright laws. While FAITH-IDENTITY allows you to use the Platform (subject to our compliance with these Terms), FAITH-IDENTITY grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the software and Materials solely in connection with your use of the Platform. This license terminates automatically if your use of the Platform is terminated. You agree that you will not attempt to reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to discover the source code for the software.

Except as otherwise indicated on the Platform, the Platform and all content and other materials on the Platform, including all designs, text, graphics, pictures, information, data, software, code, files, and the selection and arrangement thereof (collectively, the "Platform Materials") are the property of FAITH-IDENTITY or its suppliers and are protected by U.S. and international copyright laws.

You are granted a limited, non-sublicensable license to access and use the Platform and the Platform Materials solely in connection with your use of the Platform. Such license, unless otherwise expressly agreed by FAITH-IDENTITY, is subject to these Terms and does not permit you, or anyone else to, directly or indirectly:

  • use any manual process or robot, spider, scraper, or other automated means to collect information from the Platform or from users of the Platform;
  • copy, modify, publicly display, post, distribute, or exploit in any way the Platform Materials or other data or information from the Platform for commercial purposes, including commercial publication, sale or personal gain;

  • circumvent any of the technical limitations of the Platform, or decompile, disassemble or otherwise reverse engineer the Platform;

  • use the Platform for commercial activities such as contests or advertising;
  • create a database by downloading and storing the Platform Materials or any part thereof; or
  • post any material that could be considered obscene, lewd, lascivious, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable.

Any use of the Platform, the Platform Materials or its software other than as specifically authorized herein is strictly prohibited, unless we have given you written permission, and any such unauthorized use will terminate the license granted in these Terms. Such unauthorized use may also violate applicable laws (including copyright and trademark laws and applicable communications regulations and statutes). Except as explicitly stated, nothing in these Terms shall be construed as conferring any license to intellectual property rights, whether by estoppel, implication or otherwise.

FAITH-IDENTITY does not control, approve, endorse, or adopt any Third-Party Content and can make no representation or warranty as to its quality, content, accuracy, or completeness. FAITH-IDENTITY provides these links to you only as a convenience, and your use of Third-Party Content is at your own risk.

Representations and Warranties; Disclaimer

FAITH-IDENTITY endeavors to use and will require its third-party hosting provider(s) to use, industry standard security methodologies to secure the Platform. Please note that the specific methods used may vary from time to time, and FAITH-IDENTITY does not represent or warrant that any specific security measures will be taken or that such security measures will be infallible. As FAITH-IDENTITY's sole and exclusive liability, and your sole remedy, with respect to any security breach or data loss, FAITH-IDENTITY will work with you to resolve any loss of data or other security issues that arise.

In addition, you understand that there may be occasions when the Service is interrupted or data is unavailable, such as for maintenance, upgrades, system or equipment failure, vendor failure or otherwise. FAITH-IDENTITY SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY INTERRUPTION, SUSPENSION, DISCONTINUANCE OR UNAVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICE OR DATA FOR ANY REASON. In the event of any unavailability of the Service, we will provide you, upon request and as available, with an electronic copy of the data stored through the Service, provided your account is paid in full. Please note, however, that you are solely responsible for making backup copies of such data on a regular basis, and FAITH-IDENTITY will not be responsible or liable in any manner if it is unable to provide such data for any reason.

You understand and agree that EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED TO THE CONTRARY IN THESE TERMS, THE SERVICE, THE PLATFORM, AND THE PLATFORM MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. FAITH-IDENTITY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT AS TO THE PLATFORM, THE SERVICE, AND ALL DATA, INFORMATION, CONTENT, AND MATERIALS CONTAINED OR STORED THEREIN.

FAITH-IDENTITY DOES NOT REPRESENT OR WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE OR THE PLATFORM WILL PROVIDE CONTINUOUS, PROMPT, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE SERVICE. FAITH-IDENTITY ASSUMES NO LIABILITY FOR ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS, INCLUDING THE INACCURACY OF CONTENT, OR FOR ANY DAMAGES OR LOSSES THAT YOU OR ANY THIRD-PARTY MAY INCUR AS A RESULT OF THE UNAVAILABILITY OF THE SITE. FAITH-IDENTITY ASSUMES NO RESPONSIBILITY, AND SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR, ANY DAMAGES TO, OR VIRUSES THAT MAY AFFECT YOUR COMPUTER EQUIPMENT OR OTHER PROPERTY ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM.

Limitation of Liability

THE LIABILITY OF FAITH-IDENTITY, ITS DIRECTORS, SHAREHOLDERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS (FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION, “FAITH-IDENTITY”) TO YOU WITH RESPECT TO THE PLATFORM, OUR SERVICES, AND THESE TERMS IS LIMITED AS FOLLOWS: (A) FAITH-IDENTITY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, RELIANCE, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING ANY DAMAGE TO BUSINESS REPUTATION, LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA OR LOST SAVINGS); AND (B) FAITH-IDENTITY’S MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU IN FEES UNDER THESE TERMS IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY. THESE LIMITS APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF CLAIM (CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF THIS PARAGRAPH IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN THAT EVENT, LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

Electronic Communications
By using the Platform, you agree to receive certain electronic communications from us, whether on the Website, or by email. You may unsubscribe from communications at any time by clicking the appropriate link in the communication. You agree that any notice, agreement, disclosure, or other communication that we send you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing. All calls, emails, and other communications between you and FAITH-IDENTITY may be recorded. 

Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver

Subject to the exceptions described below, all disputes arising out of or related to these Terms of Use or any aspect of your relationship with FAITH-IDENTITY, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, will be resolved through final and binding arbitration before a panel of three arbitrators instead of in a court by a judge or jury. Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court.

Arbitration is mandatory for the claims covered under this arbitration agreement. You agree that FAITH-IDENTITY and you are each waiving the right to trial by a jury, and that any arbitration will take place on an individual basis. You hereby waive the ability to participate in a class action. The parties agree that the panel will have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement.

You and FAITH-IDENTITY each retain the right to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court and (ii) seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement or misappropriation of a party’s trade secrets or intellectual property rights.

You will also have the right to litigate any other dispute that would otherwise be subject to this arbitration agreement if you opt out of the arbitration agreement by sending an email to info@faith-identity.org or a letter to the postal address indicated in the Contact Us section below, within 30 days after the date you first agree to these Terms of Use. If you don’t provide FAITH-IDENTITY with a timely opt-out notice, this arbitration agreement applies.

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (currently available at https://www.adr.org/Rules or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879). The panel will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the panel determines that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location that is reasonably convenient to both parties. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the panel will determine the location. If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, FAITH-IDENTITY will contribute to your filing and hearing fees as the panel deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. The panel’s decision will follow the terms of this Agreement (including the Limitation of Liability provision) and will be final and binding. The panel will have authority to award temporary, interim, or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of this Agreement, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim before the panel. The award rendered by the panel may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction.

Applicable Law and Venue

These Terms and your use of the Platform shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Oregon, applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of Oregon, without resort to its conflict of law provisions. You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these Terms, unless otherwise set forth herein, shall be filed only in the state and federal courts located in Multnomah County, Oregon and you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of these Terms.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms is deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Complete Terms and Conditions

These Terms state the entire agreement between you and FAITH-IDENTITY with respect to the Service and the Platform. They supersede all or any prior negotiations, discussions, communications, representations, or other statements regarding the Service and the Platform. They may not be modified or amended except by FAITH-IDENTITY.

We reserve the right to make changes to these Terms at any time, and such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted on the Platform.  Each time you access the Platform you should review the current Terms.  Your continued use of the Platform will constitute your acceptance of the current Terms.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent.  We may assign the Terms and our rights and obligations under these Terms, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets or equity, or by operation of law.  You agree that communications and transactions between us may be conducted electronically, including by email.
