TERMS OF SERVICE
Terms of Service Agreement
This Terms of Service Agreement (this “Agreement”) constitutes a legally binding contract between Lootcakes Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Lootcakes,” “we,” “us,” “our”) and you with respect to your use of our services, APIs, websites, and/or software (collectively the “Service”). It is important that you carefully read and understand the terms and conditions of this Agreement. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU ARE CONSENTING TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE. YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICE IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT. If you access or use the Service on behalf of a company, principal, or other entity, you represent that you have authority to bind such entity and its affiliates to this Agreement and that it is fully binding on them. In such case, the term “you” will refer to such entity and its affiliates. If you do not have authority, you may not access or use the Service. Be advised that this Agreement contains disclaimers of warranties and limitations on liability that may be applicable to you.

Notice Regarding Dispute Resolution: This Agreement contains provisions that govern how claims you and Lootcakes have against each other are resolved (see Section 12 (Limitation of Liability), Section 13 (Release), Section 17 (Dispute Resolution), and Section 18 (Choice of Law and Forum) below). It also contains an agreement to arbitrate along with a class action waiver, which will, with limited exception, require you to submit claims you have against us to binding and final arbitration, unless you opt-out of the agreement to arbitrate in accordance with Section 17(D). Unless you opt-out: (A) you will only be permitted to pursue claims against Lootcakes on an individual basis, not as part of any class or representative action or proceeding and (B) you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) on an individual basis.
1. Changes to this Agreement
We reserve the right to, at any time, with or without cause: Any changes we make to the terms and conditions of this Agreement will be effective in thirty (30) days of our making such changes available on the Service or otherwise providing notice thereof. Other changes noted above will be effective immediately upon posting to the Service or other notice. We will notify you of material changes by also sending an email referencing the changes to your last email on file. Be sure to return to this page periodically to ensure familiarity with the most current version of this Agreement. The above does not apply to revisions to Section 17.
2. Use and Description of the Service
Before using the Service, you need to register with Lootcakes and create an account. We reserve the right to decline to provide the Service to any person for any or no reason. If and when you register with or provide information to Lootcakes, you agree to (a) provide accurate, current, and complete information as prompted (including your e-mail address) and (b) maintain and update your information (including your e-mail address) to keep it accurate, current, and complete. You agree to keep your account registration information up to date at all times. You acknowledge that, if any information provided by you is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, we reserve the right to terminate or suspend this Agreement and your use of the Service. When you provide us with your e-mail address or other contact information, we may use this information to send you Service-related notices and other administrative notices, or other communications and marketing offers, including any notices required by law; please consult our privacy policy for additional descriptions of how we use your information.

You may register for or log-in to a Lootcakes account via a third-party network, such as Facebook or Google+. If you do so, you hereby authorize Lootcakes to pre-populate the registration and other relevant information fields of your Lootcakes account and/or to use such third-party network credentials to log you into the Service. If you connect your Lootcakes account to a third-party network, you agree to comply with the terms and conditions and policies applicable to such network.

Operation of the Service (including our ability to generate revenues and fund your rewards) requires that Lootcakes detects and records your game-related purchases. We do so by collecting the game-related purchase receipts sent to you via e-mail. If you want to earn rewards for sharing your receipts, we require that you use one of the methods we provide to link an email account to Lootcakes. This allows us to efficiently collect your e-mailed receipts, to verify their authenticity, and to mitigate the risk of e-mail spoofing, fraud or other violations of the Lootcakes terms of service (the “E-mail Linkage Purpose”).

If you choose to link an email account not issued to you by Lootcakes, then to perform the E-mail Linkage Purpose, Lootcakes will only search for and collect from such linked e-mail account(s) those e-mails sent by: (a) the operators of games, game-related platforms and/or game-related devices, and (b) the provider of your linked e-mail account(s)(together, your “Third Party Email Senders”).

If you choose to link an e-mail account or e-mail alias issued to you by Lootcakes, then to perform the E-mail Linkage Purpose we will collect all emails sent thereto (the “Lootcakes Email Senders”), however, we will only process for commercial purposes thosee-mails sent by the operators of games, game-related platforms and/or game-related devices.

By creating an account or by accessing or using the Service you hereby authorize Lootcakes to access your linked e-mail account(s) and any associated applications developed by your linked e-mail account provider(s) that contain settings affecting the accessibility of your linked e-mail account(s) (together the ”Linked E-Mail Accounts”) to: (1) collect e-mails from Third Party Email Senders and Lootcakes Email Senders; (2) perform the E-mail Linkage Purpose; and (3) adjust your Linked E-mail Accounts settings to: (a) enable IMAP (which stands for Internet Message Access Protocol and is a technology that enables e-mail access via third party applications); and (b) enable signing in to your Linked E-mail Accounts (using your Linked E-Mail Accounts credentials) from any third party application (such setting in Gmail/Google called allowing “less secure apps” access). You consent to our use of your Linked E-mail Accounts credentials (including your e-mail address and password) to perform the aforementioned actions. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustments made to your Linked E-mail Accounts settings will never include changing your password or disabling two-factor authentication (also known as “2-Step Verification”).

You also hereby acknowledge that collected e-mails may include financial information, credit card information, and pre-paid gift card information. If Lootcakes collects information from your Linked E-mail Accounts that is deemed unnecessary to perform the E-mail Linkage Purpose, Lootcakes will delete such information as soon as reasonably practicable.

You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your Lootcakes account. You must keep your account credentials (including username and password) secure at all times. You may not share your account with any third parties without Lootcakes’s prior written consent unless such third party has separately entered an agreement with Lootcakes permitting it to access your account. You must notify Lootcakes immediately of any breach or suspected breach of security or unauthorized use of your account. Lootcakes will not be liable for any losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account.

You represent and warrant that you have the full right, power, and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement without the consent or approval of any third party.
3. User Content
You are solely responsible for your conduct and any data, text, files, information, usernames, images, graphics, photos, profiles, audio and video clips, sounds, musical works, works of authorship, applications, links, and other content or materials (collectively, “Customer Data”) that you submit, post or display on or via the Service.

You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the Customer Data posted by you on or through the Service or otherwise have the right to grant the rights and licenses set forth in this Agreement; (ii) the posting and use of your Customer Data on or through the Service does not violate, misappropriate or infringe on the rights of any third party, including, without limitation, privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, trademark and/or other intellectual property rights; (iii) you agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and any other monies owed by reason of Customer Data you post on or through the Service; and (iv) you have the legal right and capacity to enter into these Terms in your jurisdiction.

Although it is Lootcakes’s intention for the Service to be available as much as possible, there will be occasions when the Service may be interrupted, including, without limitation, for scheduled maintenance or upgrades, for emergency repairs, or due to failure of telecommunications links and/or equipment. Also, Lootcakes reserves the right to remove any Customer Data from the Service for any reason, without prior notice. Customer Data removed from the Service may continue to be stored by Lootcakes, including, without limitation, in order to comply with certain legal obligations, but may not be retrievable without a valid court order. Lootcakes will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Services, or the loss of any Customer Data. You also acknowledge that the Internet may be subject to breaches of security and that the submission of Customer Data or other information may not be secure.

You agree that Lootcakes is not responsible for, and does not endorse, Customer Data posted within the Service. Lootcakes does not have any obligation to prescreen, monitor, edit, or remove any Customer Data. If your Customer Data violates this Agreement, you may bear legal responsibility for that Customer Data.

Except as otherwise described in the Service’s Privacy Policy, available at www.lootcakes.com/Legal/PrivacyPolicy, as between you and Lootcakes, any Customer Data will be non-confidential and non-proprietary and we will not be liable for any use or disclosure of Customer Data. You acknowledge and agree that your relationship with Lootcakes is not a confidential, fiduciary, or other type of special relationship, and that your decision to submit any Customer Data does not place Lootcakes in a position that is any different from the position held by members of the general public, including with regard to your Customer Data. None of your Customer Data will be subject to any obligation of confidence on the part of Lootcakes, and Lootcakes will not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Customer Data you provide.
4. Reporting Copyright and Other IP Violations
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. Lootcakes also reviews claims of trademark infringement. If you believe in good faith that materials hosted by Lootcakes infringe your copyright or trademark rights, you (or your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the material be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work or trademark claimed to have been infringed (or, if multiple copyrighted works or trademarks located on the Service are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow Lootcakes to locate the material on the Service; (d) the name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright or trademark owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. Please be advised that Lootcakes will not respond to complaints that do not meet these requirements. If Lootcakes determines that the materials alleged to infringe your copyright or trademark rights do not require removal, Lootcakes will remove those materials only pursuant to a court order declaring the content or use of the materials unlawful.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. Counter-notices must include the following information: (a) your name, address, and telephone number; (b) the source of the content that was removed; (c) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the content was removed in error; (d) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located; or, if your address is outside of the United States, for any judicial district in which Lootcakes may be found, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original complaint; and (e) a physical or electronic signature (for example, typing your full name).

Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Service must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA (see http://copyright.gov/title17/92appb.html) and should be sent to the agent identified below. We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

6. Intellectual Property
A. Your Rights. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including any restrictions on any applicable authorization or order form), you are hereby granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable license to access and use the Service solely for your own personal, non-commercial use. Lootcakes reserves all rights not expressly granted herein in the Service.

B. Lootcakes Rights.

Customer Data
. You expressly grant, and you represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to grant to Lootcakes, a royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable (through multiple tiers of sublicensees), transferable, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, worldwide license to use, distribute, modify, reproduce, publicly display, publicly perform, and create derivative works of Customer Data for the purposes of (a) providing the Service, or (b) developing, maintaining, supporting, or improving the Service. For instance, you agree that Lootcakes may store, access and use Customer Data in order to provide, support, operate and market the Service, as well as to analyze or support how users interact with the Service. Lootcakes aggregates Customer Data with other data and also collects technical information and data about your use of the Service. You expressly agree that Lootcakes may use and license others to use any aggregated and anonymized data for any business purpose and any Limited PII for Data Monetization Uses (as such capitalized terms are defined in our Privacy Policy) during or after the term of this Agreement, including, without limitation, to market, develop and improve the Service or other Lootcakes or its licensee’s services and products.

Feedback and Improvements
. You may choose to or we may invite you to submit comments, suggestions, feedback, or ideas about the Service, including, without limitation, about how to improve the Service or our products (“Ideas”). By submitting any Idea, you agree that your disclosure is gratuitous and without restriction and that we are free to use the Idea without any additional compensation to you, and/or to disclose the Idea on a non-confidential basis or otherwise to anyone. You further acknowledge that, by acceptance of your submission, Lootcakes does not waive any rights to use similar or related ideas previously known to Lootcakes, or developed by its employees, or obtained from sources other than you.

C. Proprietary Rights. The Service is owned and operated by Lootcakes and its licensors, and the Service (and any intellectual property and other rights relating thereto) is and will remain the property of Lootcakes and its licensors and suppliers. The Service is protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other laws, and you acknowledge that these rights are valid and enforceable. Except as set forth in this Agreement, you may not copy, reproduce, modify, adapt, translate, republish, upload, post, transmit, distribute, sub-license, sell, reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service without our prior written permission. The Service may be used solely (a) to the extent permitted in this Agreement or (b) as expressly authorized in writing by authorized representatives of Lootcakes or, if so indicated in writing by Lootcakes, its licensors or suppliers. Use of the Service for any other purpose is strictly prohibited. You acknowledge that you do not acquire any ownership rights by using the Service. The trademarks, logos, and service marks displayed on the Service (collectively, the “Lootcakes Trademarks”) are the registered and unregistered trademarks of Lootcakes, Lootcakes’s licensors and suppliers, and/or others. Nothing contained in this Agreement or the Service should be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any Lootcakes Trademark(s) without the express written permission of Lootcakes, Lootcakes’s licensors or suppliers, or the third-party owner of any such Lootcakes Trademark. Subject to the rights granted to Lootcakes in this Agreement, as between you and Lootcakes, you retain all right, title, and interest in and to your Customer Data.
7. Points and Rewards
A. Basic Terms. The Service may offer virtual currency or points that you can receive by performing certain actions and tasks in association with (or outside of) the Service (the “Points”). Points may be redeemed for certain items, such as digital gift cards or codes, as specified by the Service from time to time (the “Rewards”). Rewards may be changed by Lootcakes or a third party designated by Lootcakes from time to time at Lootcakes’s sole discretion, without warning. Lootcakes has the right to, and may, change at any given time the amount of Points assigned to an action, task or Reward, how Points or Rewards are redeemed or acquired, as well as limit the number of Points you can accumulate or maintain in your account. Points do not have any monetary value and cannot be transferred to other users or redeemed for money. You agree that you will be solely responsible for paying any applicable taxes, if any, related to the redemption of Points and/or acquisition of Rewards. You are solely responsible for complying with the terms of any third party when acquiring Rewards and verifying that the correct Rewards have been issued to you each time you acquire Rewards through the Service. Points or Rewards may expire, so you must redeem, activate or collect them (as the case may be) within the time specified in your account, as posted on the Service, as communicated by a third party, and/or as indicated on the Reward or its accompanying materials.

B. Redemption Terms. Your redemption of Points does not ensure that you will receive your designated Reward. Quantities are limited and subject to certain third parties making such Rewards available. After you redeem your Points, Lootcakes reserves the right to provide you alternative Rewards at Lootcakes’s sole discretion. Lootcakes may change which Rewards are available through the Service at Lootcakes’s sole discretion and at any time. Your acquisition of Rewards by redeeming Points through the Service is subject to the terms and conditions of any third party providing or issuing the Rewards, and you agree to abide by any such third party’s terms and conditions in the acquisition, activation, use, and disposition of such Rewards. Lootcakes is not required in any way to honor non-earned points or actions due to outages of the Service. Any attempts to harm, cheat or game the Service can result in account closure and permanent ban from Lootcakes.

C. Expiration of Points. All unredeemed Points in your account will expire if you do not log in to the Lootcakes website or mobile application for twelve (12) consecutive months. For the avoidance of doubt, and by way of example, on the effective date of this revised section 7C which is November 4, 2022 all of your unredeemed Points will expire if you have not logged into the Lootcakes website or mobile application since November 4, 2021.

D. Rewards Cannot be Resold. You may not sell or offer to sell any Points or Rewards acquired through the Service. Nor may you transfer Points or Rewards between accounts.

E. Account Suspension. Lootcakes reserves the right to reduce, liquidate, deactivate, suspend or terminate your account, Points and/or Rewards or access thereto if Lootcakes reasonably suspects, after investigation, that you have used any aspect of the Service to conduct any fraudulent or illegal activity, acquired the Points or Rewards through unscrupulous or illegal means, or purchased or sold Points or Rewards through the Service or otherwise (e.g., outside of the Service).
8. No Liability for Third-Party Offers and Links
As described in Section 7, the Service makes available digital gift cards (and may make available other items) when you redeem Rewards. You understand that we are not liable for the activity of the companies that offer those gift cards or other items, and additional terms or policies may apply to your use of them. For instance, you may be required to use the gift cards within a particular time period, and there may be limitations to their use or redemption. You should carefully read any terms and policies that may apply, as they are separate from this Agreement, and also separate from your relationship with Lootcakes.

The Service may contain links to other websites or web tools for your convenience. We do not control these linked websites, services or the content provided through them, and we have not reviewed, in their entirety, such websites or services. Your use of linked websites is subject to the privacy practices and terms of use established by the specific linked website, and we disclaim all liability for such use. The fact that we offer such links does not indicate any approval or endorsement by us of any linked website or any material contained on any linked website, and we disclaim any such approval or endorsement.
9. No Use by Children Under 13
You hereby affirm that you are over the age of thirteen (13), as the Service is not intended for children under 13. If you are under 13 years of age, then you may not use the Service. You further affirm that you are fully able and competent to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties set forth in this Agreement, and to abide by and comply with this Agreement. If you are a parent or guardian and determine that we have collected information from a person under thirteen (13), please contact us and we will take appropriate steps regarding such information.
10. Term & Termination
This Agreement is effective from the date on which you first access the Service or submit any Customer Data to Lootcakes, whichever is earlier, and shall remain effective until terminated in accordance with its terms. Lootcakes may immediately terminate this Agreement, and/or your access to and use of the Service, or any portion thereof, (a) upon a reasonable belief that you have violated this Agreement or any law at any time and for any reason, with or without cause, without prior notice, or (b) for any reason, at any time (without or without cause), provided that we provide you a reasonable opportunity to redeem your Points, where those Points can be redeemed for Rewards. Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, your right to use the Service shall immediately cease. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement for any reason, Sections 1, 2, 3, 5, 6(B), 6(C), 6(D) and 7–20 shall survive.

We reserve the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service, or any part or portion thereof, with or without notice to you. You agree that we shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Service, or any part or portion thereof. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to obligate Lootcakes to maintain and support the Service, or any part or portion thereof, during the term of this Agreement. You acknowledge and agree that upon permanent discontinuation of the Service for any reason or upon your deletion of your account, your accrued Points will automatically expire and will not be redeemable by you at any time.

Except for disputes relating to Lootcakes’s intellectual property (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents) or if you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate or if party invokes the Small Claims Action provision in Section 17.D. , all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement and your use of the Service shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules and of its supplementary procedures for consumer-related disputes, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court; provided, however, that the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies, or awards that conflict with this Agreement. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, Lootcakes will pay the additional cost. You and Lootcakes hereby expressly waive trial by jury. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person’s account, if Lootcakes is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

B. Class-Action Waiver. The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only, and not as a class action, mass arbitration or other representative action. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class-action waiver set forth in this section is void or unenforceable for any reason, or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

C. Mass Action Waiver. The parties expressly waive the right to have any dispute, claim, or controversy brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated as a mass action, and neither an arbitrator nor an arbitration provider shall have any authority to hear, arbitrate, or administer any mass action or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration. The parties also expressly waive the right to seek, recover, or obtain any non-individual relief. The parties agree that the definition of a “Mass Action” includes, but is not limited to, instances in which you or Lootcakes are represented by a law firm or collection of law firms that has filed 50 or more arbitration demands of a substantially similar nature against the other party within 180 days of the arbitration demand filed on your or Lootcakes’s behalf, and the law firm or collection of law firms seeks to simultaneously or collectively administer and/or arbitrate all the arbitration demands in the aggregate. Notwithstanding anything else in these Terms or this arbitration provision, this Mass Action Waiver does not prevent you or Lootcakes from participating in a mass settlement of claims.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the applicable arbitration provider’s rules, the arbitrator shall be empowered to determine whether the party bringing any claim has filed a Mass Action in violation of the Mass Action Waiver. Either party shall raise with the arbitrator or arbitration provider such a dispute within 15 days of its arising. If such a dispute arises before an arbitrator has been appointed, the parties agree that (i) a panel of three arbitrators shall be appointed to resolve only disputes concerning whether the party bringing any claim has filed a Mass Action in violation of the Mass Action Waiver. Each party shall select one arbitrator from the arbitration provider’s roster to serve as a neutral arbitrator, and these arbitrators shall appoint a third neutral arbitrator. If the parties’ arbitrators cannot agree on a third arbitrator, the arbitration provider will select the third arbitrator; (ii) Lootcakes shall pay any administrative fees or costs incidental to the appointment of Arbitrators under this provision, as well as any fees or costs that would not be incurred in a court proceeding, such as payment of the fees of the arbitrators, as well as room rental; (iii) the arbitrators shall issue a written decision with findings of fact and conclusions of law; and (iv) any further arbitration proceedings or assessment of arbitration-related fees shall be stayed pending the arbitrators’ resolution of the parties’ dispute. If the arbitrator or panel of arbitrators determines that you have violated the Mass Action Waiver, the parties shall have the opportunity to opt out of arbitration within 30 days of the arbitrator’s or panel of arbitrator’s decision. You may opt out of arbitration by providing written notice of your intention to opt out to the arbitration provider and to or hand delivery. This written notice must be signed by you, and not any attorney, agent, or other representative of yours. Lootcakes may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice of its intention to opt out to the arbitration provider and to you or your attorney, agent, or representative if you are represented. For the avoidance of doubt, the ability to opt out of arbitration described in this section only applies if the arbitrator or panel of arbitrators determines that you have violated the Mass Action Waiver.

D. Exception—Litigation of Small-Claims-Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction (“Small Claims Action”). If either party contends that the amount of a claim is within the jurisdiction of the small claims court (or an equivalent court), it may instruct the arbitration administrator to administratively close the arbitration case, prior to payment of fees, and direct that the claim be filed, if at all, in small claims court. Upon such a request by a party, the arbitration provider shall administratively close the arbitration proceeding. Any dispute about whether a claim qualifies for small claims court shall be resolved by that court, not by an arbitrator. In the event of any such dispute, the arbitration proceeding shall remain closed unless and until a decision by the small claims court that the small claims court lacks jurisdiction over the action. Only in the event that the small claims court determines that it lacks jurisdiction over the claim may the arbitration provider reopen the arbitration case. You and we acknowledge that failure to comply with the provisions of this section would irreparably harm the party requesting administrative closure of the arbitration proceeding, and you and Lootcakes agree that a court may issue an order staying the arbitrations (and any obligation to pay arbitration fees) until any disagreements over the provisions of this section are resolved by the court.

E. Thirty-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration- and class-action-waiver provisions set forth in this section by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: Lootcakes Inc., 154 W 14th St Fl 2, New York, NY 10011. The notice must be sent within 30 days of registering to use the Service; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with this Agreement. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Lootcakes also will not be bound by them. In addition, if you elect to opt out of these arbitration provisions, Lootcakes may terminate your use of the Service.

F. Time Limitation on Claims. You and we each agree that any claim either of us may have arising out of or related to your relationship with Lootcakes and this Agreement must be filed within one year after such claim arose (exclusive of any indemnification rights and obligations); otherwise, your or our respective claim is permanently barred.
18. Choice of Law and Forum
