We further reserve the right to modify, amend, or update these Terms at any time. The "Effective Date" at the top of these Terms reflects the date of the most recent revision.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT, MATERIALS, INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, AND SERVICES INCLUDED ON OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND "WITH ALL FAULTS" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, DREAMSTAGE RP AND ITS AFFILIATES, OWNERS, STAFF, MEMBERS, OFFICERS, AGENTS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS (COLLECTIVELY, THE "DREAMSTAGE PARTIES") EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE DREAMSTAGE PARTIES MAKE NO WARRANTY THAT: (A) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS OR EXPECTATIONS; (B) THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE; (C) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE; (D) THE QUALITY OF ANY PRODUCTS, SERVICES, INFORMATION, OR OTHER MATERIAL OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS; OR (E) ANY ERRORS IN THE SERVICE WILL BE CORRECTED.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties. Accordingly, some of the above exclusions may not apply to you. In such cases, the Dreamstage Parties' warranties are limited to the minimum extent permitted by Applicable Law.
13. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE DREAMSTAGE PARTIES BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL OR INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH (A) YOUR ACCESS TO, USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE; (B) ANY CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF OTHER USERS OR THIRD PARTIES; (C) ANY CONTENT OBTAINED FROM THE SERVICE; OR (D) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY, STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT THE DREAMSTAGE PARTIES HAVE BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, AND EVEN IF A REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF THE DREAMSTAGE PARTIES TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE EXCEED ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS (USD $100.00) OR THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO DREAMSTAGE RP IN THE PRECEDING TWELVE (12) MONTHS, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.
You acknowledge and agree that the limitations of liability set forth in this Section 13 are an essential element of the bargain between you and Dreamstage RP, and that absent such limitations, Dreamstage RP would not provide the Service to you. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you. In such cases, our liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted by Applicable Law.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Dreamstage Parties from and against any and all claims, demands, suits, actions, proceedings, losses, liabilities, damages, settlements, judgments, fines, penalties, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and court costs) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to or use of the Service; (b) your User Content; (c) your violation of these Terms or any document incorporated by reference; (d) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property, privacy, or publicity right; (e) your violation of any Applicable Law; or (f) any dispute between you and any other User or third party. We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate fully with our defense of such claims. You agree not to settle any such matter without our prior written consent. This indemnification obligation will survive the termination of these Terms and your use of the Service.
15. Termination and Suspension
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion and without notice or liability to you or any third party, to suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to all or any portion of the Service at any time, for any reason or no reason, including without limitation if we believe that you have violated or may violate these Terms, our community rules, or any Applicable Law. We may also delete, refuse, or edit any User Content at any time, in our sole discretion, without notice. Upon termination, all rights and licenses granted to you under these Terms will immediately cease, and you must immediately discontinue all use of the Service. Sections 7 (User Content License), 8 (Intellectual Property), 12 (Disclaimer), 13 (Limitation of Liability), 14 (Indemnification), 16 (Dispute Resolution), and any other provisions that by their nature should survive termination shall survive any termination of these Terms.
16. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS, AND CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
16.1 Informal Resolution. Before filing any formal claim, you agree to first contact us through our official Discord and attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute informally. We will likewise attempt to resolve the dispute informally. You and Dreamstage RP agree to negotiate in good faith for at least sixty (60) days following such notice before initiating any arbitration or other formal proceeding.
16.2 Binding Arbitration. If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, you and Dreamstage RP agree that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service (each, a "Dispute") shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision. The arbitration shall be administered by a recognized arbitration provider in accordance with its then-current rules. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. You agree that, by accepting these Terms, you and Dreamstage RP are each waiving the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action.
16.3 Class Action Waiver. YOU AND DREAMSTAGE RP AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND DREAMSTAGE RP AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, 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.
16.4 Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights or other proprietary interests.
16.5 30-Day Opt-Out. You have the right to opt out of the binding arbitration and class action waiver provisions of this Section 16 by providing written notice of your decision to opt out via our official Discord within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. Your opt-out notice must include your full name, the date you first accepted these Terms, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out. If you opt out, all other provisions of these Terms remain in full force and effect.
17. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms and any Dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws applicable in the jurisdiction in which Dreamstage RP is established, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. Subject to Section 16, you and Dreamstage RP irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of that jurisdiction for any action not subject to arbitration. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall not apply to these Terms.
18. Force Majeure
We shall not be liable or responsible for any failure or delay in performance of our obligations under these Terms when such failure or delay is caused by or results from events beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, fire, flood, earthquake, pandemic, epidemic, war, invasion, hostilities, terrorism, riot, civil unrest, government action, embargo, strike, labor dispute, power or telecommunications failure, denial-of-service attacks, internet outages, or failure of any third-party service or infrastructure on which the Service relies.
19. Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to give effect to the intent of the parties, and the remaining provisions of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect.
20. No Waiver
No waiver by Dreamstage RP of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition. Any failure by Dreamstage RP to assert a right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
21. Assignment
You may not assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms or any of your rights or obligations hereunder, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Dreamstage RP may freely assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms and any of its rights and obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without restriction and without notice to you.
22. Notices and Electronic Communications
You consent to receive communications from us in electronic form, including via the Service, our Discord, or other electronic means. You agree that all notices, disclosures, agreements, and other communications we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. Any notice you provide to us must be sent through our official Discord and shall be deemed received when actually received by an authorized representative of Dreamstage RP.
23. Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other documents expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Dreamstage RP concerning the Service and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, representations, and agreements, whether oral or written, between you and Dreamstage RP with respect to the subject matter hereof. No oral or written information or advice given by Dreamstage RP, its representatives, or any other party shall create any warranty or in any way modify these Terms.
24. Survival
All provisions of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, intellectual property provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity, limitations of liability, dispute resolution, and any other provisions that protect Dreamstage RP's rights or interests.
25. Headings and Interpretation
The headings used in these Terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of these Terms. Any ambiguity in the interpretation of these Terms shall not be construed against the drafting party.
26. Contact
If you have any questions about these Terms, please contact us through our official Discord.
