Terms of Service

THANK YOU FOR TRUSTING US TO DELIGHT, LIFT, AND THRILL YOU!

Welcome to https://room.sx (“Room”, “we”, or “us”) and our related websites, networks, desktop applications (each, a “Desktop Client”), VR headset applications (each, a “VR Client”), mobile applications (each, a “Mobile Client”), any combination of the clients (“Clients”), software development kits for use in connection with any technology or services made available by or on behalf of Room (each, an “SDK”), and other services provided by us (collectively, including any Clients and SDKs, the “Platform”).

1. Platform Overview

Room is a platform for experiencing, creating, and sharing social virtual reality and related digital experiences. Subject to compliance with these Terms, and dependent on the then-current functionality of the Platform, users of the Platform (“Users”) may be able to use it to create, share, and interact with virtual worlds and avatars.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Platform. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least 18 years of age; (b) fully competent to enter into these Terms; (c) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Platform; (d) your registration and your use of the Platform complies with all applicable laws and regulations; and (e) you hereby agree and acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms without modification.

If you are using the Platform on behalf of an entity, organization, or company, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms and you agree to be bound by these Terms on behalf of that organization.

You further represent and warrant that you are not listed on or covered by any sanctioned person lists administered by the United States government or United Nations, including but not limited to the United States Department of Treasury’s List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons, the United States Department of Commerce’s List of Denied Persons or Entity List, and the United Nations Security Council Sanctions. You further represent that you are not located in a country subject to comprehensive United States sanctions, including Iran, Syria, Cuba, North Korea, the Crimea region of Ukraine, the Donetsk People’s Republic or the Luhansk People’s Republic. Should you become listed on or otherwise subject to any such list or are in a country subject to comprehensive United States sanctions, then you agree to immediately cease use of the Platform.

3. Accounts and Registration

To access most features of the Platform, you must register for an account (your “User Account”). When you register, you may be required to provide us with some information about yourself, such as your email address or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up to date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to provide a password.

You may also access certain features of the Platform using your login credentials for certain third-party platforms (as authorized by Room) (each a “Third-Party Account”). The Platform may offer functionality allowing you to merge your User Account with a Third-Party Account.

You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the password(s) for your User Account and any Third-Party Accounts (each an “Account”), and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your Accounts. If you have reason to believe that your Account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at https://room.sx/support.

4. Client Licenses

Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with the terms and conditions in these Terms, Room grants you a limited, non-commercial (except as otherwise specified in these Terms or other written agreement between you and Room), non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to each copy of any Client downloaded directly from Room’s website or from a legitimate marketplace authorized by Room to distribute the Client to you, solely in an executable application format, for your personal use for lawful purposes, on compatible devices you own or control, and to access and use the Platform in accordance with these Terms. The terms “Desktop Client,” “VR Client” and Mobile Client as used in these Terms, include any updates or modifications to the applicable Client made available to you by or on behalf of Room (unless provided with separate terms, in which case those terms are hereby incorporated into these Terms unless otherwise stated in those separate terms, and will control in the event of a conflict with the terms of these Terms, but only with respect to the applicable Client).

5. Room SDK License

Your use of any SDK or related SDK materials is subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with the terms and conditions in these Terms and the SDK terms applicable to the SDK (which are incorporated into these Terms by this reference). If no other SDK license terms are distributed in connection with a particular SDK or related SDK materials, then your use of such SDK or related SDK materials is subject to the SDK license available at https://room.sx/legal/sdk (or any successor URL designated by Room) (the “SDK License”).

6. Trademark License

Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with these Terms, Room grants you a limited, non-commercial (except as otherwise specified in these Terms or other written agreement between you and Room), non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use its trade names, trademarks, service names, and service marks (“Marks”), solely when used in compliance with the then-current Room brand guidelines, available here (or any successor URL designated by Room) (the “Brand Guidelines”), and solely in connection with permitted uses under these Terms, in each case, provided that you may not use any Marks in a way that would suggest that you are affiliated with Room or that Room has reviewed or approved of any of the content with which the Marks are used. The Brand Guidelines are incorporated into these Terms by this reference. Any goodwill in the Marks will inure solely to Room.

7. No Support

We are under no obligation to provide support for the Platform. In instances where we may offer support, the support will be subject to applicable published policies.

8. User Content and Groups

8.1. User Content Generally. Any User may leverage certain features of the Platform to develop content on or submit, upload, publish, broadcast, perform, or otherwise transmit content to or via the Platform (directly, through any automated process, or through a third party acting on their behalf or at their direction) (“Post”), including software code, messages, photos, video, images, folders, data, text, performances, and other types of works (all such content, “User Content”). As between you and Room, you retain copyright and any other proprietary rights in the User Content you Post, subject to the licenses granted in these Terms or in any other agreement between you and Room.

8.2. Limited License Grant to Room. By Posting any User Content, you grant Room a worldwide, non-exclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, perpetual, fully-paid right and license (with the right to sublicense through multiple tiers) to host, store, transfer, publicly display, publicly perform (including by means of digital audio transmission), communicate to the public, reproduce, modify for the purpose of formatting for display, create derivative works as authorized in these Terms, and distribute that User Content, in whole or in part, in any media formats and through any media channels, in each instance whether now known or hereafter developed. All of the rights you grant in these Terms are provided on a through-to-theaudience basis, meaning the owners or operators of external services will not have any separate liability to you or any other third party for User Content that is Posted or otherwise used on external services via the Platform. You agree to pay all monies owing to any person or entity resulting from Posting your User Content and from Room’s exercise of the license set forth in this Section 8.2. You agree that the license granted to Room under this Section 8.2 applies to any User Content you directly Post, indirectly Post, or previously Posted.

8.3. Limited License Grant to Other Users. By Posting or sharing User Content with other Users of the Platform in a public portion of the Platform, or by setting any of your User Content to public, you grant those Users a non-exclusive license to access and use that User Content as permitted by these Terms and the functionality of the Platform.

8.4. User Content Representations and Warranties. You must not Post User Content if you are not the owner of or are not fully authorized to grant rights in all of the elements of that User Content. Room disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. You are solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of Posting User Content. By Posting User Content, you affirm, represent, and warrant that:

a. you are the creator and owner of that User Content, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize Room and Users to use and distribute that User Content as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this Section 8.4, in the manner contemplated by Room, the Platform, and these Terms;

b. your User Content, and the Posting or other use of your User Content as contemplated by these Terms, does not and will not: (i) infringe, violate, misappropriate, or otherwise breach any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property, contract, or proprietary right; (ii) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person; or (iii) violate or cause Room to violate any law or regulation, or require us to obtain any further licenses from or pay any royalties, fees, compensation or other amounts or provide any attribution to any third parties; and

c. your User Content could not be deemed by a reasonable person to be objectionable, profane, indecent, pornographic, harassing, threatening, embarrassing, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate. Uploading such User Content is also a violation of Section 13.2 of these Terms.

8.5. Specific Rules for Musical Works and for Recording Artists. If you are a composer or author of a musical work and have granted non-exclusive rights to a Performing Rights Organization (“PRO”), then you must notify your PRO of the royalty-free licenses you grant through these Terms to Room or to other Users. You are solely responsible for ensuring your compliance with the relevant PRO’s reporting obligations. If you have assigned your rights to a music publisher or a PRO, then you must obtain the consent of that music publisher or PRO to grant the royalty-free license(s) set forth in these Terms or have that music publisher or PRO enter into these Terms with Room. Just because you authored a musical work (e.g., wrote a song) does not mean you have the right to grant Room the licenses in these Terms. If you are a recording artist under contract with a record label, then you are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of the Platform is in compliance with any contractual obligations you have to your record label, including if you create any new recordings through the Platform that may be claimed by your label. Finally, if you wish to perform a cover song and Post it, you are responsible for recuring all rights in and to the underlying musical work before Posting your recording or performance of that musical work.

8.6. Deleting User Content. Where permitted by functionality within the Platform, you may delete copies or instances of your User Content that you have uploaded through the normal functionality of the Platform. If you delete your User Content through use of that functionality, the licenses granted by you in this Section 8 to your User Content terminate as described in this Section 8.6 with respect to the particular copies or instances of your User Content that you have deleted. The termination of the licenses does not apply to any copies or instances of the same User Content that you have not specifically deleted from the Platform, including those that may be displayed elsewhere or that may be stored by other Users to whom you have transferred or sold copies. The licenses under this Section 8 that you have granted to your User Content that you delete through the Platform will survive termination solely to allow Room to: (a) retain server copies of particular instances of your User Content, including copies stored in connection with back-up, debugging, and testing procedures; and (b) enable the exercise of the licenses granted in this Section 8 for any other copies or instances of the same User Content that you have not specifically deleted from the Platform, including those that may be displayed elsewhere or that exist in other Users’ account inventories.

8.7. User Content Disclaimer. We are under no obligation to edit or control User Content that you or other Users may Post and will not be in any way responsible or liable for User Content. Room may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User Content that in our sole judgment violates these Terms, is alleged to violate the rights of third parties, or is otherwise objectionable. You understand that, when using the Platform, you will be exposed to User Content from a variety of sources and acknowledge that User Content may be inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable. Most User Content, including worlds and avatars, available through Room is created by other Users or third parties, and Room does not control or actively monitor the content or technical features of individual worlds, avatars, or other User Content. You understand that any world you enter is at your own risk. You agree to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right or remedy you have or may have against Room with respect to User Content. We expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with User Content. If notified by a User or content owner that User Content allegedly does not conform to these Terms, we may (but are under no obligation to) investigate the allegation and determine in our sole discretion whether to remove the User Content, which we reserve the right to do at any time and without notice.

8.8. Groups Generally. The Platform enables Users to create and join “groups” comprised of other Users (“Groups”). The individual or entity who created the Group will be deemed the owner of the Group for all purposes (the “Group Owner"). The Group Owner may designate (in that person’s sole discretion) to make a different person the new Group Owner (in such case the new owner shall be considered the Group Owner). If the Group Owner’s User Account is terminated pursuant to these Terms, Room may, in its sole discretion, determine who shall be designated the rightful person to be made the new Group Owner of such Group (and that User shall be considered the Group Owner); provided, however, that nothing will obligate Room to designate a new Group Owner if Room in its sole discretion determines to terminate a Group.

8.9. Groups and User Content.

a. By participating in a Group, you hereby grant the Group Owner, as such Group Owner may change over time, the sole and exclusive authority to act on your behalf to authorize Room to use any User Content created by or uploaded to the Group as set forth in these Terms, the Host Rules, or pursuant to any other agreement entered into between the Group Owner and Room. A Group Owner and the members of a Group may separately agree upon how the Group Owner may exercise the authority granted to such Group Owner in these Terms or how the members of a Group may allocate amongst themselves any payments that may be made to the Group Owner for any activities undertaken or User Content created by or uploaded to the Group. In any event, Room will make any payments due for any activities undertaken by the Group or User Content created by or uploaded to the Group solely to the applicable Group Owner.

b. You hereby waive any claims that you may have against Room for any payments made to a Group Owner by Room, and you agree to seek recovery of any payments due to you solely from the applicable Group Owner. Except as may be provided by law, any duty of accounting between a Group Owner and members of such Group will arise solely pursuant to any written agreements among the Group Owner and the members of such Group, and Room will not be bound by any such agreements.

9. User Content

9.1. Room Credits.

a. License to Use. We, in our sole discretion, may grant certain Users a limited license to use our official Platform currency, Room Credits (“Credits”), in the applicable portions of the Platform (the “VRC Creator Economy”). If we allow you to use Credits, we hereby grant you a non-exclusive, revocable, personal, limited, non-transferable (except as specifically set out otherwise in these Terms) right and license to use Credits only: (i) in connection with the Platform; (ii) for your individual, personal, entertainment; and (iii) subject to these Terms.

b. Termination of License. We may terminate your limited license to use Credits at any time if: (i) you violate these Terms or any other Room policies; (ii) we suspend, ban, or delete your account; (iii) we terminate these Terms; or (iv) we stop offering the Platform.

c. Ways to Acquire Credits. Credits may be acquired: (i) by purchasing them directly from us or through the third-party markets that we authorize to sell Credits; (ii) by receiving them from other Users, if and to the extent permitted by us; (iii) by receiving them from Room after your Seller Content (defined below) has been sold to a purchaser; or (iv) by acquiring them through other such other methods or promotions that we may offer from time to time. We will credit your User Account for any Credits purchased, received, or acquired by you unless we terminate your license to such Credits as described in Section 9.1(b).

d. Purchase and Transfer Limits. Users may be subject to daily purchase limits as may be implemented or changed by Room in its sole discretion from time to time, and may not in any event purchase more than $10,000 in Credits on any one calendar day. You may not transfer, assign, sell, gift, exchange, trade, convert, lease, sublicense, rent, or distribute Credits except through the Platform as expressly permitted by Room. Any disposition or attempted disposition of Credits in violation of these Terms may be voided and result in the immediate termination of your User Account and/or your license to use Credits. Except as expressly authorized by Room, third-party services may not be used to sell, exchange, transfer, or otherwise dispose of Credits. We do not assume any responsibility for, and will not support, any such transactions.

e. Credits Not Redeemable or Exchangeable. Credits do not: (i) have any inherent value in real, fiat currency; (ii) act as a substitute for real currency; or (iii) earn interest. Credits are not redeemable or exchangeable for real currency, monetary value, or convertible virtual currency from us or any third party, except as expressly provided in these Terms or as otherwise required by applicable law. Transactions involving the exchange of Credits for Seller Content (as defined below) or other virtual items or services on the Platform are not legally enforceable, may not form the basis of any private right of action against Room or any third party, and are governed solely by Room in its sole discretion and these Terms.

f. Final Payment. All payments that you make for Credits, whether to Room or a third-party payment processor, are final and not refundable or exchangeable, except as required by applicable law.

g. No Further Obligations. Neither Room nor any third party has any obligation to exchange Credits for anything of value, including, but not limited to, real currency, except as expressly provided in these Terms or otherwise required by applicable law. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Room, in its sole discretion, may impose limits on Credits, including, but not limited to, the amount that may be acquired, earned, transferred, or otherwise disposed of at any time.

h. Reservation of Rights. Except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law and subject to the limited licenses granted to you in these Terms, Room has and retains all rights in and to Credits. This includes the right to modify, revoke, or terminate your license to use Room without notice, payment, or liability to you. Room makes no guarantees or warranties regarding Credits or their availability or value. Room makes no guarantee as to the nature, quality, or value of Credits or the availability or supply thereof.

9.2. Creators and Room Credit Transactions.

a. Using Credits. Room may enable certain Users to purchase Credits, maintain a balance of Credits, pay Credits for Seller Content (as defined below), and receive Credits as compensation for selling Seller Content as described in this Section 9.

b. Creators. Any User who Posts User Content to the Platform shall be considered a “Creator.”

c. Sellers. Room may enable certain Creators to list User Content that they have created for sale to other Users. Creators who list their User Content for sale and meet the requirements in these Terms and the CE Rules will be considered “Sellers”. In order to become a Seller, a Creator must complete an onboarding process and receive approval from Room. Room may utilize a third-party partner to: (i) operate the onboarding process; (ii) determine if a User has approval to become a Seller; and (iii) facilitate Payouts (as defined below) (each such partner a “CE Partner”). If Room works with a CE Partner, Creators may be required to utilize the CE Partner’s interface and provide information to the CE Partner to obtain approval to become a Seller. More details about the requirements to receive approval to become a Seller are listed in the CE Rules.

d. Selling User Content. Room may provide mechanisms on the Platform for Sellers to sell their digital goods, experiences, services, performances, subscriptions (including Paid Roles (as defined below)), or other User Content created or offered by such Seller (“Seller Content”). When another User elects to purchase such Seller Content through these mechanisms, Room will: (i) deduct the required number of Credits from the purchaser’s account; (ii) grant the purchaser a sub-license to the Seller Content that will enable the purchaser to access and use such Seller Content; and (iii) credit the Seller’s account with a number of Credits equal to the Credits paid by the purchaser minus any Transaction Fees (defined below and elaborated on in the CE Rules). All Seller Content that is “sold” or “purchased” under these Terms is licensed to the applicable purchaser as described in this Section 9.2(d).

e. Earned Credits and Payout Requests. Credits received by a Seller when Seller Content is purchased (“Earned Credits”) may be: (i) eligible to be exchanged for U.S. dollars at the then-current exchange rate set by Room (“Payout”), subject to Room’s approval of a payout request submitted by the Seller (“Payout Request”) and in compliance with these Terms and the CE Rules; or (ii) used to purchase Seller Content from another User within the Platform. If a Seller chooses to spend Earned Credits in the Platform, the Earned Credits will be deducted from the Seller’s account and therefore will not be eligible for a Payout Request at any future point.

f. Room Credit Transactions. You may only use Credits as payment within the Platform as permitted by Room. All transactions in Credits will be governed by these Terms. Each Seller, and not Room, is solely responsible for any Seller Content. Room makes no guarantee that the Seller Content will be available or function in any manner.

g. Group Roles.

(i) Paid Roles. Room may permit Sellers to create paid-only roles within Groups in exchange for Credits (“Paid Roles”). Having a Paid Role may grant you certain privileges or access to certain Seller Content, as determined by the applicable Seller (“Role Benefits”). A Seller may update the Role Benefits in their sole discretion. While we attempt to ensure that every Seller complies with these Terms, the CE Rules, the Community Guidelines, and all other applicable policies, Room is ultimately not responsible for, and makes no representation or guarantee with respect to any claims or promises made by the Seller in connection with a Paid Role or the Role Benefits. If you have a complaint or concern with a Paid Role, Role Benefits, or the actions of any Seller, please contact Room User Support at https://room.sx/support.

(ii) Tiered Roles. Sellers may offer different tiers of Paid Roles, and each tier may come with different Role Benefits. If you change your Paid Role’s tier, your Role Benefits will change to correspond to your new Paid Role’s tier, and you may lose Role Benefits associated with your previous Paid Role’s tier.

(iii) Time-Limited Roles. Paid Roles may be time-limited, and you may be required to pay Credits on a regular basis to maintain your Paid Role. The timing and amount of each payment depends on the settings selected by the applicable Seller, and you may view those details through the Platform prior to making your initial payment for the Paid Role. Room may provide you with the option to make these payments automatically. If we do so, Room will automatically deduct the required number of Credits from your account on each recurring payment date. If you do not have the required number of Credits in your account at the time the payment is due, you may lose your Paid Role.

(iv) Pre-Paid Roles. The Platform may permit you to pre-pay for a Paid Role for a certain period of time (“Stacked Purchase”). In this case, you will pay the Credits up front for the entire period that you would like to purchase the Paid Role.

(v) Cancellation. If you cancel your Paid Role or you do not continue to pay for the Paid Role after your Stacked Purchase expires, you may lose your Role Benefits. You may cancel future payments for Paid Roles through the Platform or by contacting Room User Support, and your Paid Role will terminate on the day your next payment would have been due or made. It is possible that: (x) Room removes a Seller offering a Paid Role from the Platform or revokes that Seller’s right to participate in the VRC Creator Economy; (y) a Seller decides to discontinue offering your Paid Role; or (z) a Seller blocks you from the Group or from purchasing their Paid Roles. In each of those cases, Room will not charge you for future payments for such Paid Roles and will refund a portion of your pre-paid Credits for Stacked Purchases, pro-rated on a monthly basis to reflect the portion of your Stacked Purchase that was unreceived.

h. Transaction Fees Generally. We may charge service, transaction, or other fees in connection with any transaction conducted with Credits for our role in providing the Platform, maintaining the VRC Creator Economy, facilitating such transactions within the Platform, and offering other services relating to the Platform and the VRC Creator Economy (“Transaction Fees”). Room may update the Transaction Fees at any time for any reason but will provide Users with reasonable notice before any update takes effect. You can see the current Transaction Fees in the CE Rules.

i. Disputes. We have an interest in making sure that the Platform provides a good experience for all involved and reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to intervene to attempt to mitigate or resolve disputes among Users relating to Room Credit transactions. To escalate a problem to us, please contact our Customer Service Department by submitting a ticket at https://help.room.sx/hc/en-us. If we decide intervention is appropriate, you understand and agree that our decision, which may include reallocating, refunding, or crediting Credits from one User to another in our sole discretion is final. We may freeze the amount of Credits in controversy in your User Account until Room determines that the dispute is resolved, and if our decision includes the reallocation, refund, or crediting of Credits paid to you by another User and you do not have a sufficient balance of Credits in your User Account, we reserve the right to reduce accordingly any future payments to you of Credits. If you are involved in any such dispute, you agree to work with us in a good faith and prompt manner to resolve the dispute.

9.3. Reservation of Rights. We, in our sole discretion, have the absolute right to manage, modify, suspend, revoke, and terminate the VRC Creator Economy without notice, refund, compensation, or liability to you, except as prohibited by applicable law. If you do anything related to the Platform that is against the law or otherwise in violation of these Terms, the Community Guidelines, the CE Rules, or any of our other policies, we reserve the right to deny, suspend, or terminate your access to the VRC Creator Economy and void any pending transaction thereunder.

9.4. Additional CE Partner Terms.

a. Certain features of the Platform relating to Credits may be provided through third-party services integrated into the Platform, including features (the “Tilia Service”) currently provided by the CE Partner Tilia LLC (“Tilia”), such as the exchange and transfer of Credits. In order to access and use the Tilia Service, you must establish and maintain an active and valid user account with Tilia, and accept and agree to Tilia’s Terms of Service available at https://www.tilia.io/legal/terms-of-service (or any successor URL designated by Tilia) and Privacy Policy available at https://www.tilia.io/legal/privacy-policy (or any successor URL designated by Tilia), which shall govern your use of the Tilia Service. The Tilia Service is not under our control, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for your use of the Tilia Service, so please review Tilia’s terms carefully. In order to use certain features of the Tilia Service, you may also be required to establish and maintain active and valid user accounts with Tilia’s third party service providers.

b. Room MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THE TILIA SERVICE AND, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, HEREBY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING THE TILIA SERVICE. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AS BETWEEN Room AND YOU, (i) YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE TILIA SERVICE, YOUR DEALING WITH TILIA, AND ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE TILIA SERVICE, AND (ii) YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE TILIA SERVICE), OR THE LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE USE OF THE TILIA SERVICE OR THE DOWNLOAD OR USE OF THAT MATERIAL OR CONTENT THEREFROM.

10. Payments

10.1. Payments Generally. Access to the Platform, or to certain features of the Platform, may require you to pay fees. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. Unless otherwise stated, all fees or other amounts specified in these Terms or on the Platform are in U.S. dollars and are non-refundable. Purchases made through third-party markets, such as Steam and Oculus, may be governed by additional terms provided by such third-party markets. If Room changes the fees for any part of the Platform, including by adding additional fees or charges, Room will provide you with advance notice of those changes. If you do not accept the changes, Room may discontinue providing the Platform or the applicable portion of the Platform to you. Room or its third-party payment processors will charge the payment method you specify at the time of purchase. You authorize Room and its third-party payment processors to charge all sums as described in these Terms to that payment method. If you pay any fees with a credit card, Room or its third-party payment processors may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase. If you use the Platform to update or cancel any existing authorized payment, it may take up to 10 business days for the update or cancellation to take effect.

10.2. Subscription Service. Certain premium features on the Platform may be made available through purchase of a subscription (“Subscription Service”). Subscription Services involve automatically recurring payments for periodic charges and may be purchased through a third-party market. If you activate a Subscription Service, you authorize Room (or the applicable third-party market) to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your Account, all accrued sums for your subscription to the Subscription Service on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The “Subscription Billing Date” is the date when you first purchase a subscription to a Subscription Service. The Subscription Service will begin on the Subscription Billing Date and continue for the subscription period that you select on your Account (such period, the “Initial Subscription Period”), and will automatically renew for successive periods of the same duration as the Initial Subscription Period (the Initial Subscription Period and each such renewal period, each a “Subscription Period”). Your Account will be charged automatically on the Subscription Billing Date for all applicable fees and taxes for the next Subscription Period.

Your subscription to the Subscription Service will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription to a Subscription Service before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic subscription fee to your Account. We (or the applicable third-party market) will bill the periodic subscription fee to the payment method you provide during purchase (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information).

We may suspend or terminate access to a Subscription Service for any Account for which any amount is due but unpaid. In addition to the amount due for any Subscription Service, a delinquent Account may be charged with fees or charges that are incidental to any chargeback or collection of any unpaid amount, including collection fees. If your payment method is no longer valid at the time a renewal subscription fee is due, then Room reserves the right to suspend your Account and your access to the Platform without any liability to you. If your Account is terminated or suspended for violation of these Terms, any ongoing Subscription Service associated with the Account may be canceled and no refund will be provided for any remaining portion of your then-current Subscription Period(s).

10.3 Payments for Subscription Services are non-refundable. If you have activated a Subscription Service through a thirdparty market, you may cancel your subscription to that Subscription Service through the third-party market’s account settings or other procedures established by that third-party market. If you have questions, please reach out to Room User Support at https://room.sx/support.

11. Digital Millennium Copyright Act

We comply with the provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act applicable to Internet service providers (17 U.S.C. §512, as amended). Please review our copyright policy available at https://hello.room.com/copyright (or any successor URL designated by Room) (the “Copyright Policy”). The Copyright Policy is incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.

12. Restrictions

You may not reproduce, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, or create derivative works of any part of the Platform unless you are expressly permitted to do so in a separate written agreement between you and Room. You may not use any part of the Platform for any commercial uses or other uses outside the scope of what is expressly permitted in these Terms without entering into a separate written agreement with Room that expressly allows that expanded use (such an agreement, a “Commercial Use Agreement”). Unless, and solely to the extent that, such a restriction is impermissible under applicable law or applicable third-party license, you may not, and may not permit any third party to: (a) decompile, reverse engineer, or otherwise access or attempt to access the source code for any portion of the Platform, or make or attempt to make any modification to any portion of the Platform (other than modifications of the type described in the applicable User documentation made available to you by Room) or (b) interfere with or circumvent any feature of the Platform, including any security, or access control mechanism. You may not use any portion of the Platform for any purpose other than a purpose for which the applicable part of the Platform is expressly designed. If you are prohibited under applicable law from using any part(s) of the Platform, you may not use them. You represent and covenant that you have complied and will continue to comply with the rights and obligations set forth in these Terms with regards to your use of any part(s) of the Platform previously downloaded or accessed. We make no representation that the Platform is appropriate or available for use outside of the United States. Access to the Platform from countries or territories or by individuals where such access is illegal is prohibited. Nothing in this Section 12 or in these Terms is intended to restrict Users from streaming their use of the Platform through a third-party streaming platform, including Twitch and YouTube, provided that such use is in compliance with all other terms of these Terms, including the Brand Guidelines and in compliance with all applicable third-party terms relating to those third-party systems (such streaming, “Permitted Streaming”). These Terms do not prohibit you from monetizing such streaming through third-party streaming platforms’ authorized monetization systems. Your use of any third-party streaming platform is subject to that platform’s terms.

We aim to provide users with a positive user experience on the Platform by minimizing abuse of Room or other users on the Platform. We strictly enforce prohibitions against cheating, hacking, account stealing and any other unauthorized or fraudulent activity on the Platform. We use a variety of anti-cheat and fraud prevention technologies (collectively, the “Anti-Cheat Measures”) to help us identify and prevent malicious activity. The Anti-Cheat Measures technologies may be developed by Room or a third party. One such service we use is Easy Anti-Cheat (“EAC”) from Epic Games, Inc. (“Epic”), which helps prevent certain of the acts listed above in Section 13.1. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NONE OF Room’S THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS OF ANTI-CHEAT MEASURES WILL HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO YOU WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ANTI-CHEAT MEASURES.

When you launch Room, the Anti-Cheat Measures may monitor your gameplay and device’s RAM, processes, communications, and file storage for purposes of detecting violations of, and enforcing, these Terms, including but not limited to the use of “modified clients” (“Mods”).

Room may collect relevant information needed for our investigation and enforcement purposes such as your account information, details related to your use of Mods, and any times cheating was detected. We also may terminate your Account if we determine you have been cheating.

Room does not discriminate against Users for the lawful exercise of their privacy rights. However, if you deny Room or its service providers the ability to collect or process personal data or request that it be deleted such that Room cannot determine whether you are using Mods or cheating, Room may block your access to use a Client or the Platform and prevent use of a Client or the Platform.

13.4. Monitoring to these Terms.

If at any time Room chooses to monitor any User Content or your activities on the Platform, then Room still assumes no responsibility or liability for content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of User Content or your activities on the Platform. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied, and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Room may block, filter, mute, remove or disable access to any User Content uploaded to or transmitted through the Platform without any liability to the User who Posted such User Content or to any other Users of the Platform. For clarity, Room does not permit copyright-infringing User Content or activities on the Platform.

ALL PARTS OF THE PLATFORM AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PLATFORM (INCLUDING ANY USER CONTENT AND SELLER CONTENT) ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE Room ENTITIES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE PLATFORM AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE PLATFORM (INCLUDING ANY USER CONTENT AND SELLER CONTENT), INCLUDING: (a) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT AND (b) ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE.

Room FURTHER DISCLAIMS ANY WARRANTY OR LIABILITY RELATED TO YOUR CARRIER’S NETWORK OR SERVICE.

26. Miscellaneous

Your use of the Platform is subject to all additional terms, policies, rules, or guidelines applicable to the Platform or certain features of the Platform that we may post on or link to from any part of the Platform (the “Additional Terms”), such as additional license agreements for any downloadable Materials, an SDK, or rules that apply to particular features or content on the Platform, subject to Section 19 (Modification of these Terms). All Additional Terms are incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.

26.2. These Terms (which includes the Copyright Policy, the Privacy Policy, and, if applicable, the SDK License, Community Guidelines, Brand Guidelines, CE Rules, any Additional Terms, any Additional Terms, and any Commercial Use Agreement between you and Room (collectively, the “Ancillary Agreements”)) is the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Room regarding your use of the Platform.

26.4. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms and all rights granted under these Terms, including with respect to your User Content, at any time without notice or consent.

26.5. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.

26.6. For purposes of these Terms, (a) the words “include,” “includes” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the words “such as”, “for example” “e.g.” and any derivatives of those words will mean by way of example and the items that follow these words will not be deemed an exhaustive list; (c) the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense of “and/or” and the terms “or,” “any,” and “either” are not exclusive; (d) the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereto” and “hereunder” refer to this Agreement as a whole; (e) words denoting the singular have a comparable meaning when used in the plural, and vice-versa; and (f) whenever the context may require, any pronouns used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns and pronouns shall include the plural, and vice versa.

Unless otherwise specified, references to “$” and “dollars” are to the currency of the United States of America. Any law defined or referred to herein means such law as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor laws.

27. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

27.1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Room in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, you and Room agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms, the Platform, and communications from us will be resolved by binding confidential arbitration in English. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, the Platform, and communications from us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND Room ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

27.2. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 27.1, nothing in this will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

27.3. Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 27 within 30 days after the date that you agree to this by sending a letter to Room Inc., Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, 548 Market St., #93053 San Francisco, CA, 94104-5401, that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your Account on the Platform, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Room receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 27 will be void and any action arising out of this will be resolved as set forth in Section 25. The remaining provisions of this will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

27.4. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Room will: (a) be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act; (b) be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this; (c) be administered by the AAA; and (d) if an arbitration hearing is held, take place at a mutually-agreed location in San Francisco County, California. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Room. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

27.5. Notice; Process

a. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Room’s address for Notice is: Room Inc., 548 Market St, #93053 San Francisco, CA, 94104-5401. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”).

b. The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Room may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Room must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any.

c. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Room will pay you the highest of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Room in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; and (iii) $1,000.

27.6 Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Room will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in the county and state of your residence, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your residence or billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Room for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules.

27.7. Decision. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

27.8. No Class Actions. YOU AND Room AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Furthermore, unless both you and Room agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

27.9. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision.
