6.5 Monitoring Content. Altar does not control and does not have any obligation to monitor: (a) User Content; (ii) any content made available by third parties; or (iii) the use of the Service by its users.

12. DISCLAIMERS; NO WARRANTIES. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE APP, THE SERVICE, AND MATERIALS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. THE ALTAR ENTITIES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE APP, THE SERVICE, AND MATERIALS, INCLUDING: (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (B) ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE. THE ALTAR ENTITIES DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP, SERVICE, OR MATERIALS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, AND DO NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED.
YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR ANY HARM OR DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE APP, THE SERVICE, AND MATERIALS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT YOU USE THE APP, THE SERVICE, AND MATERIALS AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND THAT YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BODILY HARM, DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, OR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM SUCH USE.
13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE ALTAR ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE APP, THE SERVICE, AND MATERIALS, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY ALTAR ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE ALTAR ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE APP, THE SERVICE, THE MATERIALS, OR OTHERWISE UNDER THIS EULA, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO $100.
EACH PROVISION OF THIS EULA THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THIS EULA BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS EULA. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
14. INTERNATIONAL USE. The Service is controlled and operated from within the United States. Altar makes no representation that the Service (including the App) is appropriate or available in locations outside the United States. Those who choose to access the Service (including the App) from other locations are responsible for compliance with applicable laws. All users must comply with all applicable law, and any software made available in connection with the Service and the transmission of applicable data, if any, is subject to United States and other applicable export controls.
15. GOVERNING LAW. This EULA is governed by the laws of California without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under this EULA, then you and Altar agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Santa Clara, California for the purpose of litigating any dispute.
16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION.
16.1 Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Altar in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Altar agree that every dispute arising in connection with this EULA will be resolved by confidential, binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this EULA, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this EULA. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS EULA, YOU AND ALTAR ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
16.2 Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 16.1, we both agree that nothing in this EULA will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
16.3 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Altar will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this EULA, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at , by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Altar.
16.4 Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail ("Notice"). Altar’s address for Notice is: Altar Virtual Technologies, Inc., 1766 Sand Hill Road, Apartment 0304, Palo Alto, CA 94304. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or Altar may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Altar must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Altar will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Altar in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
16.5 Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this EULA, Altar will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Santa Clara, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Altar for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
16.6 No Class Actions. YOU AND ALTAR AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Altar agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
16.7 Modifications. If Altar makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to Altar’s address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to Altar’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Altar will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.
16.8 Enforceability. If Section 16.6 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 16 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 16 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 15 will govern any action arising out of or related to this EULA.
17. GENERAL. This EULA, together with the Privacy Policy and any Additional Terms, and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference herein, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Altar regarding your use of the Service (including the App). Except as expressly permitted above, this EULA may be amended only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of all parties to this EULA. You may not assign or transfer this EULA or your rights hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign this EULA at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of this EULA, or any provision of this EULA, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in this EULA is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. If any part of this EULA is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
18. OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. The App and/or Service may include open source software or third-party software. Any such software is made available to you under the terms of the applicable licenses.
19. CONTACT INFORMATION. Altar Virtual Technologies, Inc. is located at 1766 Sand Hill Road, Apartment 0304, Palo Alto, CA 94304. You may contact us by sending correspondence to that address or by emailing us at .
20. OBTAINING A COPY OF THIS EULA. You may have this EULA mailed to you electronically by sending a letter to the address in Section 19 with your electronic mail address and a request for a copy of this EULA.
21. NOTICE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS. If you are a California resident, under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite S-202, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 in order to resolve a complaint regarding the App and/or Service or to receive further information regarding use thereof.

Altar makes no representation that the Service (including the App) is appropriate or available in locations outside the United States. Those who choose to access the Service (including the App) from other locations are responsible for compliance with applicable laws. All users must comply with all applicable law, and any software made available in connection with the Service and the transmission of applicable data, if any, is subject to United States and other applicable export controls.
15. GOVERNING LAW. This EULA is governed by the laws of California without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under this EULA, then you and Altar agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Santa Clara, California for the purpose of litigating any dispute.
16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION.
16.1 Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Altar in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Altar agree that every dispute arising in connection with this EULA will be resolved by confidential, binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this EULA, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this EULA. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS EULA, YOU AND ALTAR ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
16.2 Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 16.1, we both agree that nothing in this EULA will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
16.3 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Altar will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this EULA, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at , by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Altar.
16.4 Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail ("Notice"). Altar’s address for Notice is: Altar Virtual Technologies, Inc., 1766 Sand Hill Road, Apartment 0304, Palo Alto, CA 94304. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or Altar may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Altar must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Altar will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Altar in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
16.5 Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this EULA, Altar will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Santa Clara, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Altar for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
16.6 No Class Actions. YOU AND ALTAR AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Altar agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
16.7 Modifications. If Altar makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to Altar’s address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to Altar’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Altar will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.
16.8 Enforceability. If Section 16.6 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 16 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 16 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 15 will govern any action arising out of or related to this EULA.
17. GENERAL. This EULA, together with the Privacy Policy and any Additional Terms, and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference herein, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Altar regarding your use of the Service (including the App). Except as expressly permitted above, this EULA may be amended only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of all parties to this EULA. You may not assign or transfer this EULA or your rights hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign this EULA at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of this EULA, or any provision of this EULA, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in this EULA is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. If any part of this EULA is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
18. OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. The App and/or Service may include open source software or third-party software. Any such software is made available to you under the terms of the applicable licenses.
19. CONTACT INFORMATION. Altar Virtual Technologies, Inc. is located at 1766 Sand Hill Road, Apartment 0304, Palo Alto, CA 94304. You may contact us by sending correspondence to that address or by emailing us at .
20. OBTAINING A COPY OF THIS EULA. You may have this EULA mailed to you electronically by sending a letter to the address in Section 19 with your electronic mail address and a request for a copy of this EULA.
21. NOTICE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS. If you are a California resident, under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite S-202, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 in order to resolve a complaint regarding the App and/or Service or to receive further information regarding use thereof.
