EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE WEBSITE AND THE SERVICES ARE
PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WITHOUT LIMITING
THE FOREGOING, PS AUDIO, ITS AFFILIATES, AND ITS LICENSORS DO NOT WARRANT
THAT: (1) ANY CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE OR USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE
SERVICES, INCLUDING USER CREATED CONTENT, IS ACCURATE, RELIABLE, OR
CORRECT; (2) THAT THE WEBSITE AND/OR THE SERVICES WILL BE AVAILABLE AT ANY
PARTICULAR TIME OR LOCATION, UNINTERRUPTED OR SECURE; (3) THAT ANY

YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE RELEASING US FROM ANY LIABILITY THAT WE MAY

SERVICES, OR ANY FAILURES WHICH TEMPORARILY OR PERMANENTLY PREVENT
ACCESS TO THE WEBSITE OR THE SERVICES.


THE AVAILABILITY OF THE WEBSITE AND THE PROVISION OF THE SERVICES IS
CONTINGENT ON YOUR AGREEMENT WITH THIS AND ALL OTHER TERMS AND
PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE PRIVACY POLICY, AND THE COOKIE POLICY.
NOTHING CONTAINED IN THIS “REPRESENTATIONS & WARRANTIES” SECTION SHALL
BE CONSTRUED TO LIMIT THE GENERALITY OF THE FIRST PARAGRAPH OF THIS
SECTION.


For Jurisdictions that do not allow us to limit our liability: Notwithstanding any provision of
this Agreement, if your jurisdiction has provisions specific to waiver or liability that conflict
with the terms of this Section, then our liability is limited to the smallest extent possible by
law. Specifically, in such jurisdictions, we do not disclaim liability for any liability which it is not
lawful to exclude either now or in the future.


IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A JURISDICTION THAT REQUIRES A SPECIFIC STATEMENT
REGARDING RELEASE, THEN THE FOLLOWING APPLIES. FOR EXAMPLE, CALIFORNIA
RESIDENTS MUST, AS A CONDITION OF THIS AGREEMENT, WAIVE THE APPLICABILITY
OF CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH STATES, “A GENERAL RELEASE
DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT
TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF
KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER
SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” YOU HEREBY WAIVE THIS SECTION OF THE
CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE. YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY SIMILAR PROVISION IN LAW,
REGULATION, OR CODE THAT HAS THE SAME INTENT OR EFFECT AS THE
AFOREMENTIONED RELEASE.

to pay for an attorney(s) of our choice in such cases. You agree that this indemnity extends to
requiring you to pay for our reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and disbursements. In the
event of a claim such as one described in this paragraph, we may elect to settle with the
party/parties making the claim and you shall be liable for the damages as though we had
proceeded with a trial.

a. All necessary licenses and permissions to use and share such Content, pursuant to the

PS Audio respects the intellectual property rights of others and expects its users to do the

the following DMCA Notice (a “Notice”) of Alleged Infringement and delivering it to the
Company’s Designated Copyright Agent.

copyrighted works are covered by this Notice, you may provide a representative list of
the copyrighted works that you claim have been infringed.
• Identify the material or link you claim is infringing (or the subject of infringing activity)
and to which access is to be disabled, including at a minimum, if applicable, the URL or

Attn: PS Audio Copyright Agent

UNDER FEDERAL LAW, IF YOU KNOWINGLY MISREPRESENT THAT ONLINE MATERIAL IS
INFRINGING, YOU MAY BE SUBJECT TO CRIMINAL PROSECUTION FOR PERJURY AND CIVIL
PENALTIES, INCLUDING MONETARY DAMAGES, COURT COSTS, AND ATTORNEY’S FEES.
Please note that this procedure is exclusively for notifying PS Audio that your copyrighted
material has been infringed. The preceding requirements are intended to comply with our
rights and obligations under the DMCA, including 17 U.S.C. §512(c), but do not constitute legal
advice. You may wish to contact an attorney regarding your rights and obligations under the
DMCA and other applicable laws.


In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, PS Audio has adopted a policy of
terminating, in appropriate circumstances, accounts of users who are deemed to be repeat
infringers. The Company may also, at its sole and absolute discretion, limit access to the
Website and the Services and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe any
intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.
Although the EU does not have a formalized copyright notification procedure, please use the
procedure set forth above if you are a resident of the EU.


17. Consent to Binding Arbitration
Any dispute between you and PS Audio (whether or not such dispute involves a third party),
including without limitation claims arising from your use of the Website, the Services, these
Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, or the Cookie Policy will be resolved by binding, confidential,
individual arbitration, rather than in court.


Please note that there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and your right to appeal the outcome of
arbitration is limited. An arbitrator can award, on an individual basis, the same damages or
relief as a court, and must follow the terms of this Agreement.


This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and will be
conducted under the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) rules for arbitration of
consumer-related disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org. The award rendered
by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable
costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the
arbitrator may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator will not have
authority to award damages, remedies, or awards that conflict with this Agreement. Each
party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in
accordance with AAA rules.


All claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class
member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding, and, unless we
agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims. If for any
reason a claim proceeds in court rather than arbitration, you agree to waive any right to a jury
trial.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, you or PS Audio may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement
or misuse of any intellectual property rights.


18. Choice of Law; Forum; Jury Trial Waiver
You agree that the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to principles of conflict of
laws, will govern these Terms of Use and any dispute arising from these Terms of Use or from
your use of the Website or Services. The offer and acceptance of this Agreement shall be
deemed to have occurred in the State of Colorado. The application of the United Nations
Conventions on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. For any
action at law or in equity relating to the arbitration provision in these Terms of Use, for matters
not requiring arbitration under these Terms of Use, or if the arbitration provision is deemed
unenforceable, you agree to resolve any dispute arising from these Terms of Use or from your
use of the Website or the Services exclusively in a state or federal court located in Boulder
County, Colorado, and to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts for the
purpose of litigating all such disputes. YOU AND PS AUDIO EXPRESSLY WAIVE YOUR
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND AGREE THAT THE PREVAILING PARTY IN ANY SUCH
ACTION SHALL BE ENTITLED TO COLLECT ITS COSTS AND EXPENSES OF SUCH ACTION
(INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES) FROM THE NON-PREVAILING PARTY.
Without limiting any provision contained herein, you expressly understand and agree that you
may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff
or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action.


19. Force Majeure
You agree that we are not responsible to you for anything that we may otherwise be
responsible for, if it is the result of events beyond our control, including, but not limited to, acts
of God, pandemics and other public health emergencies, war, insurrections, riots, terrorism,
crimes, labor shortages (including lawful and unlawful strikes), embargoes, postal disruptions,
communication disruptions, failures or shortages of infrastructure, shortages of materials, or
any other events that are beyond our control.

20. Severability
If a provision of this Agreement is found to be unlawful, conflicting with another provision of
the Agreement, or otherwise unenforceable, the Agreement will remain in force as though it
had been entered into without that unenforceable provision being included in it.
If two or more provisions of this Agreement are deemed to conflict with each other’s
operation, PS Audio shall have the sole and absolute right to elect which provision remains in
force.


21. Non-Waiver
We reserve all rights permitted to us under this Agreement as well as under the provisions of
any applicable law. Our non-enforcement of any particular provision or provisions of this
Agreement or any applicable law should not be construed as a waiver of the right to enforce
that same provision under the same or different circumstances at any time in the future.


22. Our Termination and Cancellation Rights
We may terminate or suspend service or your account or any other provision of services to you
at our discretion without explanation and/or notice, though we will strive to provide a timely
explanation in most cases. If you wish to terminate this Agreement or your account, you are
solely responsible for properly canceling your account. All provisions of this Agreement which
by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without
limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity provisions, and limitations of
liability.


23. Assignment
You may not assign your rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to any other party
without our prior written consent. We may assign our rights and/or obligations under this
Agreement to any other party at our discretion.


24. Amendments
We may amend this Agreement from time to time. When we amend this Agreement, we will
indicate the date that it was last modified. You may refuse to agree to the amendments, but if
you do, you must immediately cease using our Website and our Service.
