5.1 Informal Resolution. To facilitate the resolution of any controversy related to this Agreement (“Dispute”), you and LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT agree to first attempt to resolve any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least 30 days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Informal resolution may be completed through a customer service mechanism. If this fails, additional informal discussions begin upon written notice from you or LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT. LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT will send its notice to the email address you have provided to us and may also provide a copy to a physical address if we have one on file.

If you and LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal discussions, either you or LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by final binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be performed under the Arbitration Act 1996 of the United Kingdom available at http://www.legislation.gov.uk. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by these AAA rules. If such costs are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online as allowed by the AAA rules. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, you and LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

 

5.3 No Class Action. You and LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law no arbitration or other dispute resolution proceeding shall be joined with any other or decided on a class-action basis.

 

5.4 Exceptions to Informal Discussions and Arbitration. You and LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal discussions and binding arbitration: (1) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT’s intellectual property rights or Licensed Intellectual Property; (2) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or criminal activity; and (3) any claim for injunctive relief.

 

5.5 Venue. Any Dispute not subject to arbitration (other than claims proceeding in any small claims court), or where no election to arbitrate has been made, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within United Kingdom, and you and LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts. Construction and performance of this Agreement and the legal relations between the parties hereto shall be under the law of the United Kingdom without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Each party hereby waives any claim that such venue is improper or inconvenient.

 

6. Miscellaneous.

 

6.1 Survival. The provisions of this Agreement, other than Section 1.1 shall continue in full force and effect even after termination of this Agreement.

 

6.2 Severability and Assignment. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, and the validity and enforceability of all other provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby. User shall have no right to assign this Agreement.

 

6.3 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral and written and all contemporaneous oral negotiations, commitments and understandings of the parties.

LUDUSON ENTERTAINMENT retains the right to modify, manage, control and/or eliminate Virtual Currency at its sole discretion. Prices and availability of virtual in-game goods are subject to change without notice.
