2. Jurisdictional Issues.

The Site is controlled in or operated from (or both) the United States and is not intended to subject Company to any non-U.S. jurisdiction or law. The Site may not be appropriate or available for use in some non-U.S. jurisdictions. In choosing to access the Site, including Campaigns and Petitions (as both are defined below) available through the Site, you do so on your own initiative and at your own risk, and you are responsible for complying with and ensuring that your Campaigns or Petitions (if any) comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations in doing so.

4. Donations Submitted Through the Site.

As a 501(c)(4) not-for-profit corporation, our Site may allow you to make donations to us or other causes, either as one-time donation or as recurring monthly donations (each, a Donation). For any donation you make on the Site, you must specify the amount, a valid and authorized method of payment, and whether you want your donation to be a one-time gift or a recurring donation. Note that the processing of your data here is needed to complete the contract. That is also the legal basis that justifies us sharing your certain data with third-party service providers that process payments on our behalf.

We have complete discretion over whether to accept a donation and reserve the right to decline for any reason whatsoever. DONATIONS ARE NOT TAX REFUNDABLE AND ARE NOT REFUNDABLE.

We will use your donation at our full discretion, but within our stated objectives and mission purpose. Your donations allow us to work towards our mission to help build a world where no person will have to sacrifice family, freedom, safety, or dignity because of who they are or who they love. Once we receive a donation, these funds are allocated to help raise public awareness, promote activism, and influence policy and individual behavior on issues of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender equality. Accordingly, your donations are non-refundable.

If we are unable to use your contribution for the purpose originally specified, it is our policy to use your contribution to support other All Out campaigns and operational costs that are vital to support our work.

6. Accounts; Registration; User Names and Passwords.

Some of our Sites allow you to register for accounts specific to you for ordering, taking part in Campaigns or Petitions, making Submissions, and other purposes (an Account). In general, you are not obligated to register for an Account in order to access our Sites, but certain sections and features are available only to users who have registered for an Account (Registered Users). With respect to any such Account, we may reject or require that you change any user name (or email address) that is already being used by someone else; that may be construed as impersonating another person; that belongs to another person; that violates the intellectual property or other rights of any person; that is offensive; or that we reject for any other reason. If you are a Registered User, we expect you to accurately maintain and update any information about yourself that you have provided to us.

Your user name and password are for your personal use only and not for use by any other person.

7. Campaigns and Petitions.

We and/or our service providers may make available through the Site platforms or functionality through which you are able to create or sign campaigns (each, a Campaign) or petitions (each, a Petition) to advocate for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender equality. You may not, however, without limitation of Section 5, use our campaign platforms to create Campaigns or Petitions for political campaigning or electioneering purposes or to promote hatred, violence, discrimination, or stereotypes based on race, gender, gender identity, ethnicity, sexuality, or religion. Without limitation of Section 8, Company may elect to review, reject, remove, or modify any Campaign at our sole discretion.

  • Generally. A Campaign or Petition may be created by an individual or an organization (each, a Campaigner or Petitioner, as applicable). Campaigners and Petitioners will register with Company through the Site to create a Campaign or Petition. You acknowledge and agree that you (and not Company) are responsible for promoting and maintaining your Campaigns and Petitions, but that Company may select Campaigns and Petitions to promote by any means, including featuring a Campaign or Petition on the Site or emailing information about (or a link to) a Campaign or Petition to Registered Users, as long as such means do not violate these Terms.

  • Partners. We may elect to work with and provide Services (including maintaining Campaign or Petition sites located on the Site) to certain individual or organization-based Campaigners or Petitioners (each, a Partner). If All Out decides to engage you, you or your organization will receive a confirmation email from Company specifically identifying you or your organization as a Partner. All Out may reach out to discuss the details of your Campaign prior to engaging you. You are not a Partner until you receive a confirmation email from us stating that you are a Partner. We maintain sole discretion in whether to approve a Partner application or request, and may deny or cancel a Partnership for any reason, or none whatsoever.

  • Community Campaigns. We also offer the ability for users to host a Campaign focused on raising money for another approved NGO, organization or All Out through donations (each, a Community Campaign). Unlike other Campaigns, Community Campaigns’ proceeds directly go to help the chosen, third-party organization. Community Campaigns may be for any approved event of your choosing (e.g., a birthday party or a wedding), but the recipient of the Community Campaign proceeds (the Community Campaign Donee) must be preapproved by us, in our sole discretion. Community Campaign Donees are limited to approved NGO organizations or, alternatively, can be All Out. Community Campaigns must be preapproved by us, and will only begin after we have sent you a confirmation email regarding the details of the Community Campaign. The creator of a Community Campaign (a Community Campaigner) is required to adhere to these Terms and any other rules or instructions set forth in the confirmation email or elsewhere by us in relation to the Community Campaign. Registered Users may apply to create a Community Campaign here. We maintain sole discretion in whether to approve a Community Campaign, a Community Campaign Donee, or any aspect thereof, and may deny or cancel a Community Campaign for any reason, or none whatsoever. Community Campaigners acknowledge and understand that they do not have any rights in or to the funds or proceeds, if any, raised through their Community Campaign or in how those funds are used, although we will strive to use them for the purpose agreed to in the Community Campaign. For avoidance of doubt, a Community Campaign is a subset of Campaigns, and is included within that definition for purposes of this Agreement. If you make a Donation toward a Community Campaign, it is your responsibility to understand the details of the Community Campaign, and you donate at your own risk.

Campaigners, including Community Campaigners, and Petitioners represent, warrant and covenant that all information provided in connection with a Campaign or Petition is accurate, complete and truthful.

Please note that Site visitors may access a Partner’s Campaign or Petition sites by clicking on links provided by the Partner or by a third party. Any Site visitor who accesses a Partner’s Campaign or Petition site is subject to Company’s Privacy Policy and Terms of Service and may also be subject to the Partner’s (or a third party’s) own privacy policy and terms of service. If there is any content, advertising, products, services or other materials included or accessible through a Partner’s Campaign or Petition sites other than Campaigns or Petitions themselves, Company and its Affiliated Entities neither endorse nor are responsible or liable for any such content, advertising, products, services or other materials. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY LIABILITY FOR ANY INFORMATION ON A PARTNER’S SITE.

9. E-Commerce; Shopping.

Some of our Sites, such as https://allout.org/en/shop may allow you to purchase products directly on them (eCommerce Sites). Although we have a variety of eCommerce Sites that sell different types of products and services for different currencies, the provisions of this Agreement apply to all of them.

Orders

Descriptions and graphic representations of products on Sites are for informational purposes only and may not completely reflect the current product or its packaging. We reserve the right to change product descriptions at any time, and we are not responsible for variations between a product description and the actual product. Technological issues, such as your device settings, may alter how a product appears on a Site.

We may make improvements and/or changes in products or services described on the Sites, add new features, or terminate a Site at any time without notice. We also: (a) reserve the right to change the goods and services advertised or offered for sale through an eCommerce Site, the prices or specifications of such goods and services, and any promotional offers at any time without any notice or liability to you or any other person; (b) cannot guarantee that goods or services advertised or offered for sale on a Site will be available when ordered or thereafter; (c) reserve the right to limit quantities sold or made available for sale; (d) do not warrant that information on a Site (including without limitation product descriptions, colors or photographs) is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free; and (e) reserve the right to modify, cancel, terminate or not process orders (including accepted orders) where the price or other material information on an eCommerce Site is inaccurate, where we have insufficient quantities to fulfill an order or for any other reason in our sole discretion. If we do not process an order for such reason, we will either not charge you or will apply credit to the payment type used in the order. Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusions and disclaimers of certain implied warranties, so some of the provisions of this section may not apply to you. Unless otherwise indicated (or if the Site has a non-U.S. domain), products sold on the eCommerce Sites are intended for end use in the United States and are not labeled or intended for international distribution. Taxes: If we are legally required to collect sales tax on merchandise you order, the tax amount will be added automatically to your purchase price. On rare occasions an error in our tax database may cause the sales tax charge to be incorrect. If this happens, at any time up to two years from your date of purchase you may contact us for a refund of tax overcharges. This right to a refund is your exclusive remedy for sales tax errors.

Payment Processing: We may use a third-party payment processor to process your payment information, including your payment card data. Be aware that you may be subject to the third-party processor’s terms and your information may be subject to their privacy practices.

Returns and Exchanges

Returns and Exchanges are only available for items that are damaged on arrival or are incorrect items that you did not order. Refunds will not be issued for products that have not been purchased directly through a Site. We reserve the right to deny a return or exchange for any reason, in our sole discretion and determination. We also reserve the right to deny a return or exchange if we determine that our policy is being abused. We may use any means available to us, including coordination with other companies, to determine if you are abusing our policy. This decision is made in our sole discretion and determination.

To request a return or exchange, you must contact us by following the instructions on the Site.

In your return or exchange request, you must indicate the specific product with which you are not satisfied, and include your order number, name, and contact information, as well as the reason for your return or exchange request and the new product with which you would like to replace the returned product if you are requesting an exchange.

Please note that all returns and exchanges are also subject to the discretion of our fulfillment companies, Spreadshirt (for EU orders) and Printful (for US and all other orders). WE THEREFORE CANNOT GUARANTEE ANY RETURN OR EXCHANGE, EVEN FOR DAMAGED OR INCORRECT ITEMS.

Please note that may be subject to Spreadshirt’s Terms & Conditions and Printful’s Terms of Service as well any other policies and terms of our fulfillment companies when you place an order through our Site. We have no control over third party terms, rules or policies.

If we accept your return or exchange request, you must initiate the return of the applicable product within 30 days from the date of original shipment. Products returned after the 30-day return period may have their return or exchange denied. If you do not have an Account, we may issue you a shopping credit through other means.

To initiate the return of a product, you will need to use a return label that we provide you. Once you repackage the product that you are returning, securely affix the return label to you to your package and drop off your package at a local post office or courier office, your return or exchange will begin to be processed as soon as we have confirmed receipt of your return. We may not reimburse you for any shipping and handling fees that you incurred in returning any such product.

Promptly within receipt of a returned product, a credit will be issued back to the original method of payment if you selected a refund, or the new products that you requested will be shipped to you if you requested an exchange.

Please note that a new product for which you want to exchange the returned product may not be in stock. In such case, you will receive a shopping credit as described above.

If you are making an exchange, new products that are in stock may not equate to an even exchange and there may be a price difference between the new product and the returned product. Any difference in pricing for an exchange will be placed back on the original method of payment. If we are unable to do so, your exchange may not be completed. We may contact you for new payment information or elect to treat it as a return instead.

Refunds

We may allow you to seek a a refund; meaning all or a portion of the purchase price is returned to you without you providing the item back to us in certain cases. We reserve the right to only issue a refund, or require a return or exchange, in our sole discretion. Refunds will not be issued for products that have not been purchased directly through the Site. Refunds are only available if an item is damaged upon receipt or incorrect. Please note that all refunds are also subject to the discretion of our fulfillment companies, Spreadshirt (for EU orders) and Printful (for US and all other orders). WE THEREFORE CANNOT GUARANTEE ANY REFUND, EVEN FOR DAMAGED OR INCORRECT ITEMS.

Timing: For refund eligible products, you have 30 days from the date of shipment to contact us for a full refund of the purchase price (less shipping and handling fees). Following such 30-day period, no product is eligible for a refund. However, even after 30 days, we encourage you to contact us if you are unsatisfied with a product and so we can improve your experience, which may include providing an exception to this refund policy.

19. Disputes, Arbitration and Class Action Waiver.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY, ALLOWS FOR MORE LIMITED DISCOVERY THAN IN COURT, AND IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS. YOU MAY CHOOSE TO BE REPRESENTED BY A LAWYER IN ARBITRATION OR PROCEED WITHOUT ONE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Except as may be otherwise described herein, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other agreements on the Site, or the Privacy Policy, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be either determined by binding arbitration in New York City, New York before one arbitrator or submitted to small claims court in New York City, New York. If the arbitrator finds this location to be unreasonably burdensome to you, a new location may be selected or arbitration may be conducted over the phone, using video conferencing, or similar. You may be entitled to an in-person hearing near your place of residence. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having appropriate jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be conducted in accordance with the expedited procedures set forth in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures as those Rules exist on the effective date of this Agreement, including Rules 16.1 and 16.2. Reasonable discovery will be allowed during arbitration in accordance with these rules. The JAMS Rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267 (within the USA).

No Class Actions: EXCEPT FOR COORDINATED CLAIMS (AS DEFINED BELOW), YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIMS OR ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU AND WE ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ARBITRATION OR CLASS ACTION. Further, except for Coordinated Claims (defined below), unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your or our claims respectively, 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 arbitration provision shall be null and void, and shall be severed from the remainder of this Agreement.

The arbitrator 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.

Seeking Arbitration: If you believe you have a dispute with us, prior to initiating arbitration or filing a claim in small claims court, you must first call us and present your claim or dispute to allow us the opportunity to resolve the claim or dispute. Similarly, if we believe we have a dispute with you, All Out will first contact you in an attempt to resolve the dispute. If the dispute cannot be resolved and either you or we intend to seek arbitration, the party wishing to initiate arbitration must send to the other party, a written notice of the claim (Notice). Your Notice to us must be delivered by certified mail and addressed to: All Out Action Fund, Inc., 169 Madison Ave STE 11089, New York, NY 10016, U.S.A. If we initiate arbitration, we will send a written Notice to an email address or other contact information you have previously provided to us, if available. We may also use any other means to contact you, including a message in your Account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by us, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (Demand). If you and we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. Arbitration forms can be downloaded from www.jamsadr.com. Except in the event of a Coordinated Claim (as defined below), if you are required to pay a filing fee, after we receive Notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000 or the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees.

Hearing: If your claim is for US$10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic or video hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. In the event that the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of submitted documents, the arbitrator’s decision and award will be made and delivered within six (6) months of the selection of the arbitrator, unless extended by the arbitrator. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules.

Award: In the event arbitration awards you damages of an amount at least US$100 greater than our last documented settlement offer, we will pay your awarded damages or US$2,500, whichever is greater.

Coordinated Proceedings: If twenty-five (25) or more individuals initiate Notices of dispute with us raising similar claims, and counsel for the individuals bringing the claims are the same or are coordinated for these individuals (Coordinated Claims), the claims shall proceed in arbitration in a coordinated proceeding. Counsel for the individuals and counsel for All Out shall each select five (5) cases to proceed first in arbitration in a bellwether proceeding (Test Cases). The remaining cases shall not be filed in arbitration until the first ten (10) have been resolved. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the Test Cases, each side may select another five (5) cases to proceed to arbitration for a second bellwether proceeding. This process may continue until the parties have determined an objective methodology to make an offer to resolve each and every outstanding claim. A court will have authority to enforce this clause and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing of arbitration demands against All Out. Individuals bringing Coordinated Claims shall be responsible for up to US$250 of their filing fees or the maximum permissible under the applicable arbitration rules. All applicable statutes of limitations and defenses based upon the passage of time will be tolled while the Coordinated Proceedings specified in this Section are pending. We will take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling.

Injunctive Relief: Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and we both agree that you or we may sue in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights or in other scenarios where injunctive relief is appropriate. In the event a court or arbitrator having jurisdiction finds any portion of this Agreement unenforceable, that portion shall not be effective and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain effective. No waiver, express or implied, by either party of any breach of or default under this Agreement will constitute a continuing waiver of such breach or default or be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.

Confidentiality: The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the Award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

Governing Law and Rules: This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the provision in the preceding paragraph with respect to applicable substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Secs. 1-16). In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator is not empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages, except where permitted by statute, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator may not award any incidental, indirect or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits. The parties adopt and agree to implement the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure (as it exists on the effective date of this Agreement) with respect to any final award in an arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement.

To notify the provider of the allegedly infringing material to which we have removed or disabled access, we may forward a copy of your infringement notice, including your name and email address to the provider of the allegedly infringing material.

We may terminate users who, in our sole discretion, are deemed to be repeat infringers. Knowingly misrepresenting in a notification that material is infringing can subject you to damages, including costs and attorneys’ fees, incurred by us or the alleged infringer. If you receive an infringement notification from us, you may file a counter notification pursuant with our Designated Agent pursuant to the DMCA. To file a counter notification, please provide our Designated Agent with the following information:

  1. Identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access was disabled;

  2. Your name, mailing address, telephone number and email address;

  3. The following statement: I consent to the jurisdiction of [insert one of the following: (1) the Federal District Court in which my mailing address is located, or (2) if you reside outside of the United States, the United States District Court for the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York];;

  4. The following statement: I will accept service of process from [insert the name of the person who submitted the infringement notification] or his/her agent;

  5. The following statement: I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good faith belief that the affected material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled; and

  6. Your signature, in physical or electronic form.

Upon receipt of valid counter notification, we will promptly provide the person who provided the original infringement notification with a copy of your counter notification and inform that person that we will replace the removed material or cease disabling access to it in ten (10) business days. Further, we will replace the removed material and cease disabling access to it not less than ten (10), nor more than fourteen (14), business days following receipt of your counter notice, unless Designated Agent first receives notice from the person who submitted the original infringement notification that such person has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Site.

We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a DMCA notice or counter-notice.
