Sport Stock, LLC (“we, us, our, ours, etc.”) is the owner and operator of www.thesportstock.com and any affiliated websites, related mobile versions, and all goods and services provided thereon (“SportStock”), social sports stock trading games that allow you to purchase virtual credits (“Gold Coins”) that can be exchanged for imaginary shares in certain sports teams (“Stocks”) which can be exchanged for more or less Gold Coins at a later date, depending on the imaginary value of the shares at the time of that exchange. We are the owner or licensee of all text, images, graphics, photographs, audio, video, buttons, icons, animations, data, messages, software, content, information, or materials on SportStock (“Materials”).
These Terms of Service constitute a legal contract that establishes the relationship between you, the user (“you, your, yours”, etc.), and us as it relates to your access to and use of SportStock. By accessing or using SportStock, you accept and agree to our website policies, including these Terms of Service, and you certify to us that (i) you are eighteen (18) years of age or older, and are at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction; (ii) you have the legal capacity to enter into and agree to these Terms of Service; (iii) you are using SportStock freely, voluntarily, willingly, and for your own personal enjoyment; and (iv) you will only provide accurate and complete information to us and promptly update this information as necessary to maintain its accuracy and completeness.
We reserve the right to revise these Terms of Service at any time. You agree that we have this unilateral right, and that all modifications or changes are in force and enforceable immediately upon posting. The updated version supersedes any prior versions immediately upon posting, and the prior version is of no continuing legal effect unless the revised version specifically refers to the prior version and keeps the prior version or portions thereof in effect. We agree that if we change anything in these Terms of Service, we will change the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms of Service and provide reasonable notice to you of such changes. Upon receipt of such notification, you must review the updated Terms of Service in their entirety, and you must agree to the updated Terms of Service or immediately cease use of SportStock. If you fail to review these Terms of Service as required, you assume all responsibility for such omission, and you agree that such failure amounts to your affirmative waiver of your right to review the updated terms. We are not responsible for your neglect of your legal rights.
We do not offer, condone, recommend, or encourage illegal gambling. Instead, we offer entertaining online social sports stock trading games where you will win Gold Coins with no real-world value. We may impose a specific set of rules on each particular game, and you will comply with the rules specific to each particular game that you play. These games do not trigger the prohibitions on gambling in the jurisdictions where we operate. However, we make no guarantee that SportStock is legal in your jurisdiction. You agree to consult with your local authorities or legal advisors before using SportStock, and you will not use SportStock if doing so violates the gambling laws in your jurisdiction. Nothing published on SportStock shall be construed as legal advice. It is your sole and absolute responsibility to comply with all applicable laws. You assume all risks and responsibility for your access to and use of SportStock. We bear no responsibility for your access to or use of SportStock in connection with illegal gambling activities.

4.Billing
A.Gold Coins
If you provide valid and current payment information, you may purchase and use Gold Coins. Gold Coins have no cash value and are for entertainment purposes only. Gold Coins can only be used to play (or replay) the games. Gold Coins cannot be converted for or withdrawn as real-world money or exchanged for anything of value. Unused Gold Coins are not eligible for any full or partial refunds and may be deleted from inactive accounts. We offer you the opportunity to purchase differing amounts of Gold Coins for differing prices. The price of Gold Coins is displayed on SportStock, and you may only purchase Gold Coins for the currently displayed price. You may exchange Gold Coins for Stocks. The exchange rate and terms and conditions applicable to any exchange are displayed on SportStock at the time of the exchange.
From time to time, we may allow you to purchase or license a right to access and use other goods or services on SportStock. The price of any goods or services sold or licensed by us and the terms governing your access to and use of such goods or services are displayed on SportStock at the time of purchase. We reserve the right to change the price and terms associated with the sale or license of such goods or services, in our discretion. All previous offers or discounts associated with goods or services sold or licensed by us are unavailable once removed from SportStock.
B.Fees and Charges
You agree to pay all fees and charges related to any purchases made on your account, immediately when due in accordance with our stated billing policy, or that of our third-party billing agent. You further agree to pay all taxes, duties, import fees, shipping fees, and other charges associated with the purchase of goods or services, whether physical or digital. You acknowledge that the charge on your banking statement may display our company name, one of our brand names, or our third-party billing agent’s name. You understand and agree that you are responsible for all fees or penalties that are associated with your account. Your account will be deemed past due if it is not paid in full by the payment due date. Your card issuer agreement may contain additional terms with respect to your rights and liabilities as a card holder. You agree to pay all amounts due immediately upon cancellation or termination of your account.

D.Third-Party Payment Processing
We utilize various third-party payment processors and gateways, and we reserve the right to contract with additional third-party payment processors and gateways in our sole discretion to process all payments associated with SportStock. Such third parties may impose additional terms and conditions governing payment processing. You are responsible for abiding by such terms. We further disclaim any liability associated with your violation of such terms.
E.Changes to Your Billing Information
You must promptly inform our third-party billing agents of all changes, including changes in your address, debit or credit card, and other banking information used in connection with billing through SportStock. You are responsible for any debit or credit card charge backs, dishonored checks, and any related fees that we incur with respect to your account, along with any additional fees or penalties imposed by our third-party billing agents.

We reserve the right to make changes at any time to our fees and billing methods, including the addition of administrative or supplemental charges for any feature, with or without prior notice to you.
H.Refunds
You understand and agree that it is our standard policy that all purchases are final and nonrefundable. We reserve the right to address all refund requests in our sole discretion. In no instance will a refund be provided where the user initiates a chargeback.
I.Billing Errors
If you believe that you have been erroneously billed for activity associated with your account, please notify us of such error immediately. If you do not do so within thirty (30) days after such billing error first appears on any account statement, the fee in question will be deemed acceptable by you for all purposes, including resolution of inquiries made by or on behalf of your banking institution. You release us from all liabilities and claims of loss resulting from any error or discrepancy that is not reported within thirty (30) days of the bill being rendered to you. These Terms of Service shall supplement and be in addition to any terms and conditions imposed by third party billing entities we engage to provide billing services. You are responsible for reviewing and complying with such entity’s terms and conditions in addition to those contained in these Terms of Service.
J.Fraudulent Use of Credit Cards
We take credit card fraud very seriously. Discovery that you have used a stolen or fraudulent credit card will result in the notification of the appropriate law enforcement agencies and termination of your account.
5.Dispute Resolution and Damages
A.Governing Law and Venue
These Terms of Service and all matters arising out of, or otherwise relating to, these Terms of Service shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the state of Florida, excluding any conflict of law principles. Any and all disputes not subject to the arbitration clause below must be, without exception, resolved in Orange County, Florida, and the parties agree to exclusive jurisdiction and venue therein. The parties additionally agree that this choice of venue and forum is mandatory and not permissive in nature, thereby precluding any possibility of litigation between the parties with respect to, or arising out of, claims not subject to the arbitration clause below in any other jurisdiction. All parties hereby waive any right to assert the doctrine of forum non-conveniens or similar doctrines, or to object to venue with respect to any proceeding brought in accordance with this paragraph or with respect to any dispute under these Terms of Service whatsoever. You agree to accept service of process by registered or certified mail, Federal Express, or Priority Mail, with proof of delivery or return receipt requested, sent to your last known address for any legal action arising from these Terms of Service. Any final judgment rendered against a party in any action or proceeding shall be conclusive as to the subject matter and may be enforced in any manner provided by law if such enforcement becomes necessary.
B.Arbitration
If you have any dispute with us arising out of our Privacy Policy, in relation to any data privacy claim, in relation to the retention of any personal data collected during the geolocation or the age, identity, and ID verification process, or if you have a dispute with us arising out of or otherwise relating to our Promo Rules (“Arbitral Claims”), you shall first confer with us and negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve the dispute. If you are unable to resolve the dispute with us through direct negotiations, then, except as otherwise provided herein, either party must submit the issue to binding arbitration in accordance with the then-existing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. The submitting party is responsible for payment of all filing fees, or reimbursement of such fees to the respondent. Arbitral Claims shall include contract and tort claims of all kinds, and all claims based on any federal, state, or local law, statute, or regulation, excepting claims by us for intellectual property infringement, actions for injunctions, attachment, garnishment, and other equitable relief. The arbitration shall be confidential. The arbitration shall be conducted in Orange County, Florida and conducted by a single arbitrator, knowledgeable in Internet and e-Commerce disputes. The arbitrator shall be willing to execute an oath of neutrality. With the permission of the arbitrator, the arbitration may be conducted remotely. The Arbitrator shall have no authority to award any punitive or exemplary damages; certify a class action; add any parties; vary or ignore the provisions of these Terms of Service; and shall be bound by governing and applicable law. The arbitration award may be enforced in any jurisdiction, under applicable law. There shall be no waiver of the right to arbitration unless such waiver is provided affirmatively and in writing by the waiving party to the other party. There shall be no implied waiver of this right to arbitration. No acts, including the filing of litigation, shall be construed as a waiver or a repudiation of the right to arbitrate.
C.Waivers
You hereby waive any right or ability to initiate any class action or collective proceeding along with any right to trial by jury.
D.Rights to Injunctive Relief
You acknowledge that remedies at law may be inadequate to provide us with full compensation in the event you breach these Terms of Service, and that we shall therefore be entitled to seek injunctive relief in the event of any such breach, in addition to seeking all other remedies available at law or in equity. You stipulate to a finding of irreparable injury in any claim by us for injunctive relief.
E.Provisions with Stipulated Liquidated Damages
In various provisions in these Terms of Service, we have outlined liquidated damages amounts to be applied as penalties against you if you violate these specific provisions. You specifically agree to pay these amounts. In doing so, you acknowledge that this amount is not a penalty, and that the actual damages are uncertain and difficult to ascertain, but that this amount represents the parties’ good faith attempt to calculate an appropriate compensation based on anticipated actual damages.
F.Additional Fees
If we are required to enlist the assistance of an attorney, investigator, collections agent, or other person to (i) collect any damages or any other amount of money from you, (ii) pursue any claim against you involving your use of SportStock or any breach of these Terms, or (iii) defend any claim brought by you involving your use of SportStock or any alleged breach of these Terms, then you additionally agree that you will reimburse us for all fees, costs, and expenses incurred if we prevail. Likewise, we agree to pay such fees, costs, and expenses if you prevail in a claim against us arising from breach of these Terms. You understand that even a nominal amount of damages may require the expenditure of extensive legal fees, travel expenses, costs, and other amounts that may dwarf any damages award. You agree that the prevailing party will pay these fees and costs.
