Maximal Learning respects the intellectual property rights of others. If you believe that material located in the Maximal Learning Services violates your copyright, you are encouraged to notify Maximal Learning in accordance with Maximal Learning's Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Policy. Maximal Learning will respond to all such notices, including by removing the infringing Content or disabling all links to the infringing Content, as required or appropriate. In the case of a visitor who may infringe, once or repeatedly, the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of Maximal Learning or others, Maximal Learning may, in its discretion, terminate or deny access to, or use of, the Service. In the case of such termination, Maximal Learning will be under no obligation to provide a refund of any amounts previously paid.

You may send a copyright infringement notification to us by email or mail. Your request must include the following information per Section 512(c)(3) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act:

A.  Valid contact information for you or a representative authorized to act on your behalf.  You need to provide information that will allow us and the uploaders of any sets, classes, folders, or other removed content to contact you regarding the complaint.

C.  Each allegedly infringing piece of content’s specific URL - You should always include the specific URL of the content believed to infringe on your copyright(s). General information about the content, such as a folder, search term or username, is usually not sufficient unless also accompanied by a detailed explanation that allows us to identify the content in question clearly and unambiguously (e.g., a statement that all public content created by the user is infringing).  In general, however, submissions should identify content via a specific URL in one of the following formats:

13.4. Governing Law

The Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

​

13.5. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES THROUGH A COURT AND TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE.


13.5.1. Generally. In order to expedite and control the cost of disputes, Maximal Learning and you agree that any legal or equitable claim, dispute, action or proceeding arising from or related to your use of the Services or these Terms (“Dispute”) will be resolved as follows to the fullest extent permitted by law:


13.5.2. Notice of Dispute. In the event of a Dispute, you or Maximal Learning must give the other a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and a proposed solution (a “Notice of Dispute”). You must send any Notice of Dispute by first class U.S. Mail to Maximal Learning at 1915 140th Ave NE Suite D2 #1324, Bellevue, WA 98005 with a copy sent by email to hello@maximallearning.com.  Maximal Learning will send any Notice of Dispute to you by first class U.S. Mail to your address if Maximal Learning has it, or otherwise to your email address.  You and Maximal Learning will attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. After sixty (60) days, you or Maximal Learning may commence arbitration.


13.5.3. Binding Arbitration. Any Dispute which has not been resolved by negotiation as provided herein within sixty (60) days or such time period as you and Maximal Learning may otherwise agree, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration as described in this Section 15.4 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration).  You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all Disputes in court before a judge or jury.  Instead, all Disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act.  The place of arbitration shall be King County, Washington.  Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.


13.5.4. Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any Dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis.  Neither you nor Maximal Learning will seek to have any Dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity.  No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings. You may file a Dispute only on your own behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other Users. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular Dispute cannot be arbitrated in accordance with the limitations of this Section 13.5 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), then only that Dispute may be severed and brought in court. All other Disputes remain subject to this Section 13.5 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration).


13.5.5. Arbitration Procedures. Any arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”) in effect at the time the Dispute is filed.  You may request a telephonic or in-person hearing by following the JAMS Rules.  In a dispute involving $10,000 or less, any hearing will be telephonic unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. To the extent the forum provided by JAMS is unavailable, Maximal Learning and you agree to select a mutually agreeable alternative dispute resolution service and that such alternative dispute resolution service shall apply the JAMS Rules.  The arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could.  The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief to you only individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.


13.5.6. Arbitration Fees. Whoever files the arbitration will pay the initial filing fee.  If Maximal Learning files, then Maximal Learning will pay; if you file, then you will pay unless you get a fee waiver under the applicable arbitration rules.  Each party will bear the expense of that party’s attorneys, experts, and witnesses, and other expenses, regardless of which party prevails, but a party may recover any or all expenses from another party if the arbitrator, applying applicable law, so determines.


13.5.7. Filing Period.  To the extent permitted by law, any Dispute under these Terms must be filed within one (1) year in an arbitration proceeding.  The one-year period begins when the events giving rise to the Dispute first occur.  If a Dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred.


13.5.8. Venue. In the event that any Dispute cannot be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 13.5 (Dispute Resolution and Arbitration), you agree that such Dispute will be filed only in the state or federal courts in and for King County, Washington, and each of you and Maximal Learning hereby consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any such action. Notwithstanding this, Maximal Learning shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction.


13.6. Severability
If any provision of the Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from the Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.


13.7. Assignment
The Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without Maximal Learning’s prior written consent, but may be assigned by Maximal Learning without consent or any restriction.  Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of the Terms shall be null and void.


13.8. Survival

13.9. Headings
The heading references herein are for convenience purposes only, do not constitute a part of the Terms, and will not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.


13.10. Entire Agreement
The Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and Maximal Learning relating to the subject matter herein and will not be modified except in writing, signed by both parties, or by a change to the Terms or Privacy Policy made by Maximal Learning as set forth in Section 3 (Modification of the Terms) above.
