- GAS:
If applicable, Participant is responsible for all Ethereum blockchain network "gas" fees associated with participation in the Redemption and/or Redemption, including fees for submitting entries and, where applicable, fees for minting and receiving NFT(s) and receiving refunds.
- ASSUMPTION OF CERTAIN RISKS:
NFTs are intangible digital assets and exist only by virtue of the ownership record maintained in the blockchain network. Due to the rapidly evolving nature of the digital asset market, it is not possible to know all of the risks involved in digital assets, and new risks may emerge at any time. The following are some, but not all, of the risks associated with the Redemption:
- Cryptocurrency and the blockchain. VF does not control the public blockchain. By participating in the Redemption, Participant acknowledges that they are aware of and accepts all risks associated with a cryptographic system, including without limitation the blockchain, decentralized ledgers, smart contracts, digital wallets, and non-fungible tokens. VF is not responsible for the operation of the blockchain, or for any losses due to the blockchain or the use of a digital currency, including without limitation, (i) internet connectivity, (ii) hardware malfunctions, (iii) software bugs, viruses or exposure to malicious software, (iv) digital wallet security breaches, (v) system failures or outages; or (vi) lost or stolen "private keys."
- Pricing digital assets. Participant understands that the price of digital assets is highly volatile and may be impacted by, among other things, fluctuations in the price of other digital assets. Digital assets also suffer from valuation and liquidity challenges.
- Evolving regulatory landscape. The regulatory landscape governing blockchain technologies, cryptocurrencies, and NFTs is evolving. Changes in the legislative or regulatory environment may impact VF's ability to offer certain products or services. In addition, there are risks associated with the dependence on third-party decentralized trading platforms, applications or other intermediaries (e.g., exchanges), counterparties or custodians to hold or convert digital assets that may be subject to little or no regulation, or that may operate in violation of regulations, including regulations related to sanctions compliance and anti-money laundering.
- Tax Obligations. Participants are solely responsible for determining what, if any, tax obligations might arise from his/her transactions. Except as required by law, VF is not responsible for determining any Participant's tax reporting or compliance obligations, or other tax obligations, including without limitation payment obligations.
- USE OF NAME AND LIKENESS:
By Participating in the Redemption , and if you have a Successful Submission, you and your invited guests hereby grant to VF and its affiliates, partners and assigns the right and permission to use in perpetuity, your name, likeness, image, voice, recorded voice, appearance, biographical information, statements, performance and/or testimonial(s) (collectively, "Appearance") in any manner and in any media, now known or later developed, throughout the world, at any time, for the purpose of advertising and publicizing the Redemption and VF's products and services, without review, permission or compensation of any amount or kind whatsoever. VF shall have complete ownership of any recording, product, copy, presentation or other material or file containing or featuring your Appearance ("Product"), including copyright interests, and you acknowledge you have no interest or ownership in the Product (or any portion thereof) or its copyright. This grant includes without limitation the right for VF to edit, abridge, augment, title, or create a compilation from your Appearance in whole or part as VF may elect in its sole discretion.
- UNAUTHORIZED USE:
The Redemption may not be used for any unauthorized use or for any illegal or unlawful purpose. Any unauthorized use or violation of this Agreement shall immediately and automatically terminate Participant's right to participate in the Redemption and may subject it to legal liability. VF reserves the right to take appropriate legal action for any illegal or unauthorized conduct.
- INDEMNIFICATION:
Participant agrees to defend, indemnify and hold VF harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, costs and expenses, including attorneys' fees, due to Participant's activities in connection with the Redemption, and/or the breach of any representation, warranty, or other provision of the Agreement.
- LIMITATION OF LIABILITY:
VF is not responsible for: (a) any incorrect or inaccurate information, whether caused by Participant, or programming associated with or used in the Redemption; (b) technical failures of any kind, including but not limited to malfunctions, interruptions, or disconnections in phone lines or network hardware or software; (c) unauthorized human intervention in any part of Redemption; (d) technical or human error, which may occur in the administration of the Redemption or the processing of submissions; or (e) submissions or notifications that are lost, late, incomplete, illegible, unintelligible, damaged or otherwise not received by the intended recipient, in whole or in part, due to computer, human or technical error of any kind, including but not limited to, by reason of unauthorized human intervention, spam filters, privacy settings, inactive email accounts or a Participant's failure to monitor its email account. If for any reason a Participant's submission is confirmed to have been erroneously deleted, lost or otherwise destroyed or corrupted, Participant's sole remedy is to submit another submission, if the Redemption is still ongoing. If, for any reason, the Redemption cannot be executed as planned, including, but not limited to, any governmental order or mandate, force majeure, social media mandate, printing, administrative or other error of any kind, transmission failure, infection by computer virus, bugs, tampering, unauthorized intervention, fraud, technical failures, epidemic, pandemic, or any other causes beyond the control VF that corrupt or affect the security, administration, fairness, integrity or proper conduct of the Redemption, or if the Redemption is compromised or becomes technically corrupted in any way, electronically or otherwise, or if VF otherwise wishes to discontinue the Redemption for any reason, VF reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel, modify or terminate the Redemption immediately and without notice.
In no event will VF be liable to Participant for any special, incidental, exemplary, indirect, punitive, or consequential damages (including loss of profits) with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, whether such liability arises from any claim based upon contract, warranty, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, and whether or not Participant has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damage. In no event will VF be liable for any inability to access the Redemption, Experience or any other NFT for any reason, including as a result of any downtime, failure, obsolescence, removal, termination or other disruption relating to (a) the servers upon which the Redemption Tokens or NFTs is stored; (b) the Approved Marketplace; or (c) any other NFT platform.
- DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES:
PARTICIPANT'S ENGAGEMENT IN THE REDEMPTION IS AT ITS OWN RISK. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PARTICIPANT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLYING WITH THIS AGREEMENT AND ALL APPLICABLE LAWS WITH RESPECT TO THE REDEMPTION AND THE RECEIPT OF ANY EXPERIENCE. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THIS AGREEMENT, ALL INFORMATION AND CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE ON OR ACCESSED THROUGH THE REDEMPTION, IS MADE AVAILABLE "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS OF ANY KIND. FURTHER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, VF DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OF THE REDEMPTION SITE(S), THE CONTENTS WITHIN AND THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES LISTED OR PURCHASED THROUGH THE REDEMPTION. VF DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE FUNCTIONS CONTAINED IN THE REDEMPTION SITE(S) OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT CONTAINED THEREIN WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE, THAT DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED, OR THAT THE REDEMPTION SITE(S) OR THE SERVER THAT MAKES IT AVAILABLE IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR HARMFUL COMPONENTS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, VF SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE USE OF THE SITES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THE CONTENT AND ANY ERRORS CONTAINED THEREIN. THIS DISCLAIMER CONSTITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THESE TERMS.
If any part of these warranty disclaimers or limitations of liability is found to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason or if VF is otherwise found to be liable in any manner, then its aggregate liability for all claims under such circumstances shall not exceed the lesser of (a) the amount paid by Participant in the Redemption that is the subject of the claim at issue during the prior 12 months, or (b) $10. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for damages. Accordingly, some of the above indemnities, limitations and disclaimers may not apply. To the extent VF may not, as a matter of applicable law, disclaim any warranty or limit its liability, the scope and duration of such warranty and the extent of our liability will be the minimum permitted under such law.
- CLASS ACTION WAIVER:
YOU AND VF 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, if the parties' dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person's claims with your claims 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 section shall be null and void.
- YOUR KNOWLEDGE & EXPERIENCE:
You represent and warrant that you are knowledgeable, experienced, and sophisticated in using blockchain technology and that you understand and accept the risks associated with technological and cryptographic systems such as blockchains, NFTs, cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, consensus algorithms, decentralized or peer-to-peer networks and systems, and similar systems and technologies, which risks may include malfunctions, bugs, timing errors, transfer errors, hacking and theft, changes to the protocol rules of the blockchain (e.g., forks), hardware, software and/or Internet connectivity failures, unauthorized third-party data access, and other technological risks, any of which can adversely affect the Redemption Tokens and expose you to a risk of loss, forfeiture of your digital currency or NFTs, or lost opportunities to buy or sell digital assets.
- ASSIGNMENT:
VF may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets or equity, or by operation of law. This Agreement (including, without limitation, the license granted hereunder) is personal to Participant and shall not be assigned or transferred. Any other attempt to assign, sub-license, or transfer rights under this Agreement shall be null and void.
- GOVERNING LAW/DISPUTES/ARBITRATION:
VF operates the Redemption from the United States of America. VF does not represent that the Redemption is lawful or available for use in any other location. If Participant chooses to participate in the Redemption from other locations, it does so at its own risk and is responsible for compliance with all applicable local laws.
Except where prohibited by law, as a condition of participating in this Redemption, each Participant agrees that (1) any and all disputes and causes of action arising out of or connected with this Redemption, including but not limited to the VF NFT(s), shall be resolved individually, without resort to any form of class action, and exclusively by final and binding arbitration under the rules of JAMS and held at the JAMS regional office nearest the Participant; (2) the Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation, enforcement and all proceedings at such arbitration; and (3) judgment upon such arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Under no circumstances will any Participant be permitted to obtain awards for, and Participant hereby waives all rights to claim, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, or any other damages, including attorneys' fees, other than Participant's actual out-of-pocket expenses (i.e., costs associated with participating in this Redemption), and Participant further waives all rights to have damages multiplied or increased. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. All issues and questions concerning the construction, validity, interpretation and enforceability of these Terms, or the rights and obligations of the Participant and VF in connection with the Redemption, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law rules (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction), which would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York.
- SEVERABILITY:
If any term of provision of these Terms is found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific term or provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect.
