COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

In your interactions with Anthro Energy and your use of our Products and Services, you may not post, modify, distribute, or reproduce in any way, any content that is copyrighted material belonging to others, without obtaining their prior written consent.

MAKING CLAIMS OF COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (“DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that any material used or displayed on or through our websites or otherwise in our Products and Services infringes your copyright, you may send a notice to us requesting that the material be removed or access to it blocked. For the notice to be effective, it must be in writing and must include the following information:

  1. a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive copyright that is allegedly infringed;
  2. identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works);
  3. identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow us to locate the material within our websites or otherwise in our Products and Services;
  4. the name, address, telephone number and email address (if available) of the complaining party;
  5. 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 owner, its agent, or the law; and
  6. 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.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, and your content has been removed or access to your content has been blocked, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. For the counter-notice to be effective, it must be in writing and must include the following information:

  1. physical or electronic signature of the user or a person authorized to act on behalf of the user;
  2. identification of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled;
  3. a statement under penalty of perjury that the user has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;
  4. the user’s name, address, and telephone number; and
  5. a statement that the user consents to the jurisdiction of the courts in the County of Los Angeles, State of California and that the user will accept service of process from the person who submitted the Notification of Claimed Infringement or an agent of such person.

Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.copyright.gov for details. DMCA notices and counter-notices regarding our websites and Products and Services should be sent to:

Anthro Energy, Inc.

2095 North Loop Road

Alameda, CA 94502

Email: info@anthroenergy.com

Please note that under Section 512(f) of the Copyright Act, any person who knowingly misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or mis-identification may be subject to liability. Please also be advised that Anthro Energy may take action against repeat infringers, including the termination of your user account and barring you from using our Products and Services.

You expressly agree that your access to and use of, or inability to access and use, our Products and Services is at your sole risk.

OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET OUT IN THESE TERMS, ANTHRO ENERGY DOES NOT MAKE ANY SPECIFIC PROMISES OR WARRANTIES ABOUT OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, INCLUDING OUR WEBSITES AND APPLICATIONS, INCLUDING ANY CONTENT, FUNCTIONALITY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, OR ABILITY TO MEET YOUR NEEDS. WE PROVIDE OUR PRODUCTS AND SERVICES “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” SOME JURISDICTIONS PROVIDE FOR CERTAIN WARRANTIES, LIKE THE IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT; HOWEVER, WE EXCLUDE ALL WARRANTIES TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY LIABILITY WHICH CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SO SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542, WHICH SAYS: 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. IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A STATE WITH PROTECTIONS SIMILAR TO CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542, YOU HEREBY WAIVE SUCH PROVISIONS OR PROTECTIONS.

In no event will Anthro Energy, our directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, interns, suppliers, service providers or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind, including, without limitation lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, arising from your use of any of our Products and Services, or for any other related claim, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of our Products and Services or any content posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available, even if advised of such possibility. Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Anthro Energy, including our affiliates, Partners, officers, directors, agents, contractors, licensors, service providers, subcontractors, suppliers, interns, and employees, from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of these Terms, the documents they incorporate by reference, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
