applicable fees for the Premium Services (including, without limitation, periodic fees for premium
accounts) as they become due plus all related taxes, and to reimburse us for all collection costs and

including because of exchange rates. Stunited does not support all payment methods, currencies or
locations for payment. If the payment method you use with us, such as a credit card, reaches its
expiration date and you do not edit your payment method information or cancel your account or such
Premium Service, you authorize us to continue billing that payment method and you remain responsible for
any uncollected amounts. Your obligation to pay fees continues through the end of the subscription
period during which you cancel your subscription. All applicable taxes are calculated based on the
billing information you provide us at the time of purchase. You may cancel or suspend your Premium
Services here. Stunited’s refund policy is explained here. We do not guarantee refunds for lack of usage
or dissatisfaction. You also acknowledge that Stunited’s Premium Services are subject to this Agreement

provide an alternative remedy for the situation, though we are under no obligation to do so.

Applications”). Examples of Stunited Applications include its smart phone applications (Stunited for
Android, Stunited for Blackberry or Stunited for iPhone), and Stunited’s “Share” buttons and other
interactive plugins distributed on websites across the web. Stunited Applications are distinct from
third party Platform Applications addressed in Section 4.2. If you use a Stunited Application or
interact with a website that has deployed a plugin, you agree that information about you and your use of
the Services, including, but not limited to, your device, your mobile carrier, your internet access
provider, your physical location, or web pages containing Stunited plugins that load in your browser may
be communicated to us. Further, by importing any of your Stunited data through the Stunited Application,
you represent that you have authority to share the transferred data with your mobile carrier or other
access provider. In the event you change or deactivate your mobile account, you must promptly update
your Stunited account information to ensure that your messages are not sent to the person that acquires
your old number and failure to do so is your responsibility. You acknowledge you are responsible for all
charges and necessary permissions related to accessing Stunited through your mobile access provider.

for these services for your specific mobile devices. Finally, by using any downloadable application to
enable your use of the Services, you are explicitly confirming your acceptance of the terms of the End
User License Agreement associated with the application provided at download or installation, or as may

such as Stunited Groups, Answers, and Network Updates, where you can post your observations and comments
on designated topics. Stunited also enables sharing of information by allowing users to post updates,
including links to news articles and other information such as job opportunities, product
recommendations, and other content to their profile and other parts of the site, such as Stunited Groups

however, Stunited, in its sole discretion, may close or transfer Stunited Groups or Company Pages, or
remove content from them if the content violates this Agreement or others’ intellectual property rights.

functionality using data and developer tools made available by Stunited through its developer platform.
You are responsible for evaluating whether you want to access or use a Third Party Site or Platform
Application. You should review any applicable terms or privacy policy of a Third Party Site or Platform

permission to use your information in ways we would not. Stunited is not responsible for and does not
endorse any features, content, advertising, products or other materials on or available from Third Party

risk and agree that your use of any Platform Application is on an “as-is” basis without any warranty as
to the Platform Developer’s actions, and that this Agreement does not apply to your use of any Third
Party Site or Developer Application. Please note: If you allow a Platform Application or Third Party

information on Stunited related to you and your connections. For additional information regarding
Platform Developers and Platform Applications, please refer to Stunited’s Privacy Policy.

opinion to: (1) comply with legal process, including, but not limited to, civil and criminal subpoenas,

6. Limitation of Liability

We are trying to limit any legal liability we may have to you.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. SOME COUNTRIES DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY IN
CONTRACTS WITH CONSUMERS AND AS A RESULT THE CONTENTS OF THIS SECTION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. Neither
Stunited nor any of our subsidiaries, affiliated companies, suppliers, employees, shareholders, or
directors (“Stunited Affiliates”) shall be cumulatively liable for (a) any damages in excess of five
times the most recent monthly fee that you paid for a Premium Service, if any, or £100, whichever amount
is greater, or (b) any special, incidental, indirect, punitive or consequential damages or loss of use,
profit, revenue or data to you or any third person arising from your use of the Service, any Platform
Applications or any of the content or other materials on, accessed through or downloaded from Stunited.
This limitation of liability is part of the basis of the bargain between the parties and without it the
terms and prices charged would be different. This limitation of liability shall:

• Apply regardless of whether (1) you base your claim on contract, tort, statute or any other legal
theory, (2) we knew or should have known about the possibility of such damages, or (3) the limited
remedies provided in this section fail of their essential purpose; and

• Not apply to any damage that Stunited may cause you intentionally or knowingly in violation of this
Agreement or applicable law, or as otherwise mandated by applicable law that cannot be disclaimed in
this Agreement.

• Not apply if you have entered into a separate agreement to purchase Premium Services with a separate
Limitation of Liability provision that supersedes this section in relation to those Premium Services.

7. Termination

You may terminate this Agreement, for any or no reason, at any time, with notice to Stunited pursuant to
Section 9.3. This notice will be effective upon Stunited processing your notice. Stunited may terminate
this Agreement and your account for any reason or no reason, at any time, with or without notice. This

bar you from any future use of Stunited.

without Stunited’s authorization, infringing any intellectual property rights, violating any of the Do’s
and Don’ts listed in Section 10, or any other behaviour that Stunited, in its sole discretion, deems
contrary to its purpose. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing, Stunited has adopted a policy

infringers under the United States Copyright Act.

8. Dispute Resolution

8.1. Law and Forum for Legal Disputes

In the unlikely event we end up in a legal dispute, it will take place in UK courts, applying UK law.

This Agreement or any claim, cause of action or dispute (“claim”) arising out of or related to this
Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of California regardless of your country of origin
or where you access Stunited, and notwithstanding of any conflicts of law principles and the United
Nations Convention for the International Sale of Goods. You and Stunited agree that all claims arising
out of or related to this Agreement must be resolved exclusively by a state or federal court located in
Santa Clara County, California, except as otherwise agreed by the parties or as described in the
Arbitration Option paragraph below. You and Stunited agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the
courts located within Santa Clara County, California for the purpose of litigating all such claims.
Notwithstanding the above, you agree that Stunited shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive
remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in any jurisdiction.

8.2. Arbitration Option

Each of us will have the right to choose arbitration.

For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the
award sought is less than $10,000, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute in a
cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event a party elects
arbitration, they shall initiate such arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution
(“ADR”) provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with
the following rules: (a) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based
on written submissions, the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (b)
the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise
mutually agreed by the parties; and (c) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be
final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

9. General Terms

9.1. Severability

Here are some important details about how to read the Agreement.

If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be
illegal, void, or unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be modified so as to render it
enforceable and effective to the maximum extent possible in order to effect the intention of the
provision; if a court or arbitrator finds the modified provision invalid, illegal, void or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement
will not be affected in any way.

Privacy Policy, or any other documentation, you agree that the translation is provided for your

to this Agreement, you can terminate this Agreement at any time per Section 7 (Termination).

9.6. No informal waivers, agreements or representations

to act with respect to that breach or subsequent similar or other breaches. Except as expressly and
specifically contemplated by the Agreement, no representations, statements, consents, waivers or other
acts or omissions by any Stunited Affiliate shall be deemed legally binding on any Stunited Affiliate,
unless documented in a physical writing hand signed by a duly appointed officer of Stunited.

You waive your rights to try to stop Stunited, but we don’t waive our rights to ask a court to stop your
actions.

enjoin or restrain the operation of the Service, exploitation of any advertising or other materials
issued in connection therewith, or exploitation of the Services or any content or other material used or

What types of cookies does Stunited Use?

Stunited uses two types of cookies, persistent and session. A persistent cookie is set once you’ve logged
in to your Stunited account. The next time you visit the Stunited website using the same device, the
persistent cookie will enable us to recognize you as an existing user, so you may not need to log in
before using our services.
A session cookie is used to identify a particular visit to the Stunited
website. Session cookies expire after a short time, or when you close your web browser. Other
technology, such as Adobe Flash, can be used to place the functional equivalent of a cookie on your
computer.

Cookies may be set by Stunited when you visit Stunited.org, or they may be set by other websites or
services who run content on the page you’re viewing (known as third-party cookies). You can also learn
more about Stunited’s advertising practices by reading our Privacy Policy.

What are cookies used for?

Cookies can be used to do lots of different things, like recognize you when you navigate to Stunited’s
site, storing your preferences and improving your experience. Cookies also make your interactions with
Stunited more secure, faster, and help us ensure that your Stunited experience is personalized to you
