11. CUSTOMER SUPPORT.

For assistance with technical issues or customer support inquiries, please send an email to help@ondemandkorea.com.

12. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION AND VENUE.

These Terms of Use are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of California, United States of America without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law.

All disputes arising out of these Terms of Use will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state court located in Orange County, California or the federal courts located in the Central District of California, and each party hereby consents to the personal jurisdiction thereof.

13. DISPUTES/ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or in connection with your access to, and/or use of the ODK Services shall be resolved by binding arbitration or, in certain situations as further described below, in small claims court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award and nothing in this Section 13 shall be interpreted as limiting any non-waivable statutory rights that you may have. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and ODK are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms of Use and the termination of your ODK membership.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the ODK Services shall not be subject to arbitration.

The arbitration shall be conducted by three (3) arbitrators, governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by these Terms of Use, and administered by the AAA. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by AAA Rules. The AAA Rules and fee information are available at www.adr.org.

If your claim is solely for monetary relief of $10,000 or less, and does not include a request for any type of equitable remedy, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely based on documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing under the AAA Rules.

If you can demonstrate that arbitration in California would create an undue burden to you, you may initiate the arbitration in the state in which you reside. Otherwise, the arbitration hearings will be held in Orange County, California.

If you initiate the arbitration, ODK will reimburse you for your filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000 or the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous, in which event you are responsible for paying the filing fee.

You may choose to pursue your claim in a small claims court where jurisdiction and venue over ODK and you otherwise qualify for such a small claims court and where your claim does not include a request for any type of equitable relief.

If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, you must first send to ODK, by certified mail, a written Notice of your claim ("Notice"). The Notice to ODK must be addressed to: Young Joon Cha, ODK Media, Inc., 221 N. Harbor Blvd., Suite E, Fullerton, CA 92832, USA ("Notice Address"). If ODK initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to the email address used for your membership account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by ODK, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If ODK and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or ODK may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.

You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by these arbitration provisions by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following mailing address by certified U.S. Mail to 221 N. Harbor Blvd., Suite E, Fullerton, California 92832, USA. The notice must be sent within the later of 30 days of your first use of the ODK Services or within 30 days of changes to this section being announced on the ODK Services, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate any disputes, claims, or controversies in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, ODK also will not be bound by them. If you do not affirmatively elect to opt out as described above, your use of the ODK Services will be deemed to be your irrevocable acceptance of these Terms of Use and any changes/updates to this section or otherwise.

If any clause within these arbitration provisions is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from these arbitration provisions, and the remainder of the arbitration provisions will be given full force and effect. In the event some or all of these arbitration provisions are determined to be unenforceable for any reason, or if a claim, dispute or controversy is brought that is found by a court to be excluded from the scope of these arbitration provisions, ODK and you agree to waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any trial by jury.

YOU AND ODK AGREE THAT THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTES, CLAIMS OR ACTIONS ARISING HEREUNDER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, IN CONNECTION WITH ANY USE OF THE ODK SERVICES, SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN EACH OF YOUR AND ODK’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, AND YOU AND ODK EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS.

(d) No Waiver/Reliance: No decision by ODK to delay or forego exercising in any respect any right provided for in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a waiver of the subject right or any further right under these Terms of Use with respect to any party. Even if ODK’s actions appear to you to be inconsistent with these Terms of Use in failing to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use, ODK’s actions shall not be deemed a waiver or constructive amendment of such provision nor of the right to enforce such provision.

(e) Integration, Amendment, and Severability: Please note that these Terms of Use constitutes the entire legal agreement between you and ODK and governs your use of the ODK Services (but excluding any services, if any, that ODK may provide to you under a separate written agreement), and completely replaces any prior agreements. If any provision of these Terms of Use is unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision is deemed severable from these Terms of Use and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. ODK may change these Terms of Use at any time and such change shall be effective upon posting the new Terms of Use on the Streaming Sites. Any visit to the Streaming Sites or use of the ODK Services by you after the new Terms of Use are posted will indicate your agreement to such change. Therefore, it is important you read these Terms regularly to ensure you are familiar with the most updated terms.

(g) Survival: All rights and obligations of the parties that by their nature are intended to survive the termination of these Terms of Use or your use of the ODK Services shall survive such termination.

(h) Content Ratings: ODK gathers maturity ratings based on country and region. The ratings are set by a standards organization that determines whether or not the material is appropriate for children. If a TV show, movie, or other piece of content has not been rated by a known standards organization, ODK will use its reasonable judgment to determine whether or not the material is appropriate, and assign a “G”, “PG”, “PG-13”, “R”, or “NR” rating.

These Terms of Use were last modified on the date indicated above and are effective as of such date.
