Terms & Conditions
TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE
Updated as of October 6, 2022
These Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms of Use”) contain disclaimers of warranties, disclaimers of liability, and a binding arbitration clause and class action waiver. Please read them carefully.
GENERAL
These Terms of Use apply to this website, all related XFL Properties LLC websites (each a “Website”), and services that link to this policy (collectively, the “Services”) unless we have posted special terms of use to a particular website or with respect to a particular service. In that case, those special terms of use apply to that website or service to the extent that they are different from these Terms of Use. The Services are provided by or on behalf of XFL Properties LLC or its affiliates or subsidiaries (the “Company,” “we,” “us”). By using the Services, you signify your agreement to these terms and conditions of these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, please do not use the Services.
Please note that these Terms of Use contain capitalized words or phrases. These words and phrases are defined terms. Their definitions are found either in our Privacy Policy or in these Terms of Use. To help you use our Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use we have made some words, phrases and headings into hyperlinks. These words, phrases and headings have color highlighting.
These Terms of Use apply to you whether you are a “Visitor" (which means that you are simply visiting a Website) or a “Registered Fan" (which means that you have registered to participate in online activities or paid services). The term “User" refers to both a Visitor and a Registered Fan. Registered Fans are also referred to simply as “Fans.” The term “Membership" refers to a Registered Fan’s account and ability to post to and participate in activities and services hosted on a Website. If you wish to become a Registered Fan, you must read these Terms of Use and indicate your agreement with these Terms of Use and with any other instructions or requirements that may be part of a registration process.
PLEASE NOTE: Eligibility. Membership is void where prohibited. Fans may not register with the Services unless: (a) all registration information you submit is accurate, current and complete; (b) you agree to maintain the accuracy of such information; (c) you are 13 years of age or older; and (d) your use of the Services does not violate any applicable law or regulation. Participation in the Services includes, but is not limited to, postings to or other forms of participation with forums, blogs, groups, comments, chats, or the submission of photos, videos or other content ("Participation"). Any content generated by a User involving the use of any functionality of a Website is referred to as “User-Generated Content.”
Any User-Generated Content may be deleted and your registration may be canceled without warning, if we believe that you are under 13 years of age, if we believe that you are under 18 years of age and you represent yourself as 18 or older, or if we believe you are over 18 and represent yourself as under 18. You may not engage in any form of Participation on behalf of another person and if we believe you have, we reserve the right to remove it.
We may change these Terms of Use at any time. We suggest that you review these Terms of Use periodically for changes. Your use of the Services after the posting of changes to these Terms of Use will mean you accept the changes. Where, however any change to these Terms of Use is a material change (i.e., not one which is merely a small or technical change which does not affect you in any material way) or we will notify you of the relevant change(s) by email, using the email address you provided to us at registration. Your continued use of the Services after the changes come into effect will mean you accept the changes. If a material change to these Terms of Use needs to be made more quickly for security, legal or regulatory reasons, we will give you as much notice as we are reasonably able to give you. The most up-to-date version of these Terms of Use will always be available on our website and when we notify you that the Terms of Use are changing, we recommend that you print the latest version for your records.
We may also offer other services from time to time that are governed by different terms and conditions of use. You will be provided with a copy of such terms and conditions of use prior to you contracting to receive such services. The Services are based in the United States. By using the Services and/or by submitting personal information to the Services, you consent to having your information transferred to the United States and being processed and maintained in the United States, subject to applicable U.S. laws. U.S. laws may be different than the law of your home country.

Please note that we will release your personal or payment information if required to do so by law, or by search warrant, subpoena or court order or other legal process. We may also disclose your personal or payment information if we have a good faith belief that such disclosure is reasonably necessary to detect or prevent fraud and to protect the rights, property, health or personal safety of the Company, its employees, our third-party licensors, customers or the public. We may also disclose your personal or payment information if you or your legal representative authorizes us to do so or if necessary to perform credit checks or collect or report debts owed to us.

By submitting any Submission, whether solicited by us or not, you are automatically granting us an ownership right and a perpetual, royalty-free, non-exclusive, unrestricted, worldwide and irrevocable right and license to sell, rent, transfer, sub-license, use, reproduce, modify, publish, translate, prepare derivative works based upon, distribute, perform, display or otherwise utilize such Submissions, in whole or in part, in any form, media or technology known or hereafter developed for any purpose, including, but not limited to, advertising and promotional purposes (collectively, "Rights").
This grant of Rights means that all Submissions will be owned by us and may be used by us for any purpose, now or in the future, without any payment to, or further authorization by, you.

We assume no responsibility for reviewing such Submissions and we will not incur any liability as a result of any similarities between your Submissions and future products, services or programs.

COMMENTING ON A WEBSITE OR OTHER SERVICES
We have created opportunities on the Websites and Services for our fans so that they can have a safe and enjoyable place to interact with other fans, express themselves, and support their favorite talent. In order to maximize this opportunity for all fans, we require that fans agree to the following terms when they participate in commenting.
POST ONLY APPROPRIATE CONTENT
What follows are examples of the kind of content that is illegal or prohibited to post anywhere on a Website or any Service.

Harasses or advocates violence or harassment of another person;

KEEP YOUR GUARD UP!
You agree to choose carefully the User-Generated Content you post on or through the Services and that you provide to other Users. Although the Services may not include any form of Prohibited Content, as defined in Section A, some information, materials, products or services submitted to the Services by other Fans may, in whole or in part, be unauthorized, impermissible or otherwise violate this Agreement, and we assume no responsibility or liability for such material.
Remember that although the use of screen names by Fans is not a violation of the Terms of Use, people are not always who they say they are. You should always be careful when communicating with people you do not know in the real world. And it is always risky to meet anyone in person whom you don't know through real world friends.
Be cautious about posting and sharing personal information, especially information that could be used to identify you or locate you offline, such as your address or telephone number.
You are solely responsible for your interactions with other Fans. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and other Fans.

Illegal and/or unauthorized use of any Service, including collecting usernames, and/or email addresses of fans by electronic or other means for the purpose of sending unsolicited email or unauthorized framing of or linking to any Service, including any Website, or employing third party promotional sites or software to promote a profile or posting on any Service for money, is prohibited. Commercial advertisements, affiliate links, and other forms of unauthorized solicitation may be removed from any Service including this one without notice or explanation and may result in termination of registration. We reserve the right to take appropriate legal action for any illegal or unauthorized use of any Website or any of the other Services.
You are solely responsible for the photos, messages, notes, text, information, music, video and other content that you upload, publish or display (hereinafter, "post") to any Service or Website, or transmit to or share with other users. You may not post, transmit, or share content that you did not create or that you do not have permission to post.
When you post content to any Service, this content is considered a Submission, as described above, and we have all of the rights and privileges described therein and elsewhere in these Terms of Use.
JURISDICTIONAL ISSUES
The Services are controlled and operated by or on our behalf and on behalf of our affiliates. We make no representation that materials or products offered on the Services are appropriate or available for use in any particular location. Those who choose to access the Services do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with all applicable national and local laws. Software and products downloaded or purchased from the Services are further subject to United States export controls. No software or products offered on the Services may be downloaded, shipped or otherwise exported or re-exported (i) into (or to a national or resident of) Cuba, Libya, North Korea, Iran, Syria, or any other country to which the U.S. has embargoed goods; or (ii) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Commerce Department's Table of Deny Orders. By purchasing products or downloading or using the Software offered on the Services, you represent and warrant that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any such country or on any such list.
TERMINATION
We may terminate your access to the Services immediately and without notice if in our sole discretion you fail to comply with any term or provision of these Terms of Use or any other term or condition of use posted on the Services. Upon termination of your use of the Services, you must cease use of the Services and destroy all materials obtained from the Services and all copies of such materials.
We may terminate your status as a Registered Fan, delete any Website participation or any posting to any Website or other Service at any time, for any or no reason, with or without prior notice or explanation, without liability, and these Terms of Use will remain in effect. If you have any problems with the Services or your use of the Services or with these Terms of Use, your sole and exclusive remedy is to cease using the Services.
ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES; CLASS ACTION WAIVER
These Terms of Use shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut and are subject to applicable copyright and intellectual property laws, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law. By using the Services, you waive any claims that may arise under the laws of other states, countries, territories, or jurisdictions.
With respect to any and all disputes and claims arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms of Use or the Services (including without limitation the Privacy Policy), we and you agree to negotiate in good faith to achieve a mutually satisfactory resolution. If you and we do not resolve any dispute by informal negotiation, any other effort to resolve the dispute will be conducted by binding arbitration under the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration laws, except as provided in this section.
The arbitration will be done by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Payment of filing, arbitrator, and administration fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than US$10,000, unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. In addition, we will not seek attorney’s fees and costs in arbitration unless it is determined by the arbitrator that the claims are frivolous.
If your claim is worth US$10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether arbitration will be conducted by written submissions, telephone, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed upon location. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA rules. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator's award.
Compared to lawsuits in court, arbitration is less formal. In arbitration, a neutral arbitrator is used instead of a judge or jury, and court review of the arbitration award is limited. An arbitrator has the ability to award the same relief and damages as a court.
As the sole exception to this arbitration requirement, a User may pursue a claim in small claims court provided such claim is within that court’s jurisdiction and provided that the User proceeds only on an individual basis.
If You choose to commence arbitration or file a small claim court action, you must first send a written notice to us by certified mail requesting arbitration or a small claim court action and describing your claim (“Notice”). Regardless of which party sends the Notice, it should describe the basis of the claim and set forth the specific relief sought. This letter must be addressed to: info@xfl.com. If we initiate arbitration, we will send a written Notice to the email address of the User used for access to the Services. If You and we do not reach an agreed upon resolution within 30 days of receiving notice, You or we have the right to begin an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.
For timeliness purposes, You and we agree to begin any arbitration or claim in small claims court within one year after a claim arises; otherwise, the claim is waived.
You and we also agree that any proceedings to resolve or litigate any dispute will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor we will seek to have any dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings. We both also expressly waive the right to a trial by jury.
To the extent arbitration is not applicable, You and we agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts (as applicable) located in Fairfield County of the State of Connecticut. You agree that we may bring suit in a court of competent jurisdiction in Connecticut to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions of these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between us relating to your use of the Services. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Use shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in the Terms of Use are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT
If you believe your work has been copied and posted on or through these Services in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please send our Copyright Agent a notification of claimed infringement with all of the following information:
(a) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
(b) identification of the claimed infringing material and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (providing the URL(s) of the claimed infringing material satisfies this requirement); (c) information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address;
(c) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
(d) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notification is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf; and
(e) your physical or electronic signature.
We have adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, the accounts of Fans who are deemed to be repeat infringers. We may also at our sole discretion limit access to the Services and/or terminate Memberships of any Users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.
