SEGA MOBILE APPLICATION TERMS OF USE

Last Updated Date: May 4, 2018

Sega of America, Inc. and Sega Networks Inc. (collectively, “Sega”, “we”) provides social games and related services, which we make available via our website(s), third party websites and as applications for mobile devices (the “Applications”). The social games, related services and Applications are collectively referred to herein as the “Services.” Please read carefully the following terms and conditions (“Terms”) and Mobile Application Privacy Policy, which may be found at www.sega.com/mprivacy. These Terms govern your access to and use of the Services and Collective Content (defined below), and constitute a binding legal agreement between you and SEGA.

KEY CONTENT-RELATED TERMS

“Collective Content” means, collectively, SEGA Content and User Content.

“Content” means text, graphics, images, music, software (excluding the Applications), audio, video, information or other materials.

“SEGA Content” means Content that SEGA makes available through the Services, including any Content licensed from a third party and Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency (defined below), but excluding User Content.

“User” means a person who uses, downloads and/or installs any Services.

“User Content” means Content that a User posts, uploads, publishes, submits or transmits to be made available through the Services.

Certain areas of the Services (and your access to or use of certain areas of the Applications or Collective Content) may have different terms and conditions posted or may require you to agree with and accept additional terms and conditions. If there is a conflict between these Terms and terms and conditions posted for a specific area of the Services or Collective Content, the latter terms and conditions will take precedence with respect to your use of or access to that area of the Services or Collective Content, as applicable.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICES, OR BY DOWNLOADING OR POSTING ANY CONTENT THROUGH THE SERVICES, YOU ARE INDICATING THAT YOU HAVE READ, AND THAT YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY, THESE TERMS, WHETHER OR NOT YOU HAVE REGISTERED THROUGH THE SERVICES. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, THEN YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES OR COLLECTIVE CONTENT. If you accept or agree to these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms and, in such event, “you” and “your” will refer and apply to that company or other legal entity.

MODIFICATION

SEGA reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify, discontinue or terminate the Services or to modify these Terms, at any time and without prior notice. If we modify these Terms, we will post the modification via the Services or provide you with notice of the modification. We will also update the “Last Updated Date” at the top of these Terms. By continuing to access or use Services after we have posted a modification via the Services or have provided you with notice of a modification, you are indicating that you agree to be bound by the modified Terms. If the modified Terms are not acceptable to you, your only recourse is to stop using the Services.

ELIGIBILITY

The Services are intended solely for persons who are 13 or older. Any access to or use of the Services by anyone under 13 is expressly prohibited. By accessing or using the Services you represent and warrant that you are 13 or older.

ACCOUNT REGISTRATION

In order to access certain features of the Services and to post any User Content on or through the Services, you may be required to register to create an account (“Account”). For certain Services, you may register by logging into your account with certain third party social media or social networking services (“SNS”) (including, but not limited to, Facebook) via the Services, as described herein. If you decide to register through an SNS, we will extract the personal information you have provided to the SNS (such as your “real” name, email address and other information you make publicly available via the SNS) from the account you have with the applicable SNS and use that information to create your Account. The specific information that we extract may depend on the privacy settings you have with the SNS. You hereby consent to our access to and collection of such personal information about you.

You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. SEGA reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Account if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, not current or incomplete. You are responsible for safeguarding your password. You agree that you will not disclose your password to any third party and that you will take sole responsibility for any activities or actions under your Account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You will immediately notify SEGA of any unauthorized use of your Account.

You may not purchase, sell, gift or trade any Account, or offer to do same and any such attempt will be null and void. You agree that you have no right to or title in or to any Collective Content (excluding your User Content provided by you), including without limitation, any Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods (defined below) originating in the Services, or any other attributes associated with your Account, except as expressly provided in these Terms.

IN-SERVICES CURRENCIES AND GOODS

The Services may include a virtual, in-Services currency (“Virtual Currency”). Virtual Currency may be (i) obtained through gameplay within the Services, (ii) purchased from SEGA for “real world” money if you are a legal adult in your country of residence, (iii) obtained by exchanging credits or other virtual items from the third party websites through which the Services are available for the Virtual Currency, so long as such an exchange is permitted by the applicable third party website, or (iv) obtained through interaction or participation with certain third-party advertisements and services. SEGA has no control over how such third party websites operate a system of credits or virtual items and whether or not such credits or virtual items can be exchanged with the Virtual Currency, so this method of obtaining Virtual Currency may not always be available to you. In addition, SEGA’s Virtual Currency is made available to you at the sole discretion of SEGA and may be discontinued at any time. The Services may also include virtual, in-Services digital items and/or other virtual, in-Services goods and services (collectively, “Virtual Goods”) that may be purchased from SEGA within the Services with Virtual Currency. Regardless of the terminology used, Virtual Currency and Virtual Goods may never be redeemed with “real world” money, goods or other items of monetary value from SEGA or any other party.

Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency are digital items only. Your right to use any Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency that you obtain are limited to a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicenseable, revocable right to use such Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency solely for your personal entertainment and non-commercial use and for no other purpose. Except for the limited rights described herein, you have no property interest or right or title in or to any such Virtual Goods or Virtual Currency, which remain the exclusive property of SEGA. As stated above, the existence of a particular offer of Virtual Goods or Virtual Currency is not a commitment by SEGA to maintain or continue to make the Virtual Goods or Virtual Currency available in the future. The scope, variety and type of Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency that you may obtain can change at any time. SEGA has the absolute right to manage, regulate, control, modify or eliminate such Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods as it sees fit in its sole discretion, and SEGA will have no liability to you or anyone for the exercise of such rights.

Except where explicitly authorized by SEGA, (i) transfers of Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods are strictly prohibited; (ii) outside of the Services, you may not buy or sell any Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods for “real world” money or otherwise exchange items for value; and (iii) SEGA does not recognize any such purported transfers of Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods, nor the purported sale, gift or trade in the “real world” of anything that appears in the Services. Any attempt to do any of the foregoing is in violation of these Terms and will result in an automatic termination of your rights to use the Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods and may result in termination of your Account, a lifetime ban from the Services and/or possible legal action. You agree that all sales of Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency are final. No refunds will be given, except in SEGA’s sole and absolute discretion. All Virtual Goods and Virtual Currency are forfeited if your Account is terminated or suspended for any reason, in SEGA’s sole and absolute discretion, or if SEGA discontinues providing the Services.

PAYMENT TERMS

Certain aspects of the Services are, or may in the future be, provided for a fee or other charge. In the event you choose to use paid aspects of the Services, (e.g., if you decide to purchase Virtual Currency or Virtual Goods), you agree to the pricing, payment and billing policies applicable to such fees and charges, as posted in the Services. All fees are non-refundable and non-transferable except as expressly provided in these Terms. All fees and applicable taxes, if any, are payable in United States dollars.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

You and SEGA agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.You acknowledge and agree that you and SEGA are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class User in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and SEGA otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of these Terms.

Arbitration Rules and Governing Law. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. (The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org/arb_med or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.

Arbitration Process. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at http://www.adr.org/aaa/ShowPDF?doc=ADRSTG_004175 and a separate form for California residents at http://adr.org/aaa/ShowPDF?doc=ADRSTG_004314.) The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of California and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

Arbitration Location and Procedure. Unless you and SEGA otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and SEGA submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

Arbitrator’s Decision. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law. SEGA will not seek, and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law to recover, attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration.

Fees. Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $75,000, SEGA will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

Changes. Notwithstanding the provisions of the “Modification” section above, if SEGA changes this “Dispute Resolution” section after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email to help@sega.net within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated Date” above or in the date of SEGA’s email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and SEGA in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

GENERAL

The failure of SEGA to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of SEGA. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
