OWNERSHIP OF SITE CONTENT

Unless otherwise explicitly specified by Pharmavite, all materials that are included in or are otherwise a part of the Sites, including past, present and future versions, domain names, source and object code and the “look and feel” of the Sites (“Site Content“) are owned, controlled or licensed by Pharmavite, its subsidiaries or affiliates, and are protected from unauthorized use, copying and dissemination by copyright, trademark, patent, and other laws, rules, regulations and treaties.

The Site Content may not be copied, reproduced, downloaded or distributed in any way, in whole or in part, except with the express permission of Pharmavite and as is expressly provided in these Terms. Any unauthorized use of the Site Content is prohibited.

YOUR LICENSE TO USE SITE CONTENT ON OUR SITE

Subject to your strict compliance with these Terms and any Additional Terms, Pharmavite grants you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-commercial, revocable, non-assignable, and non-transferable license to access, view and download (if downloading is expressly offered by Pharmavite) the Site Content (with the exception of source and object code, other than as made available to access and use via standard web browsers). When you access or view the Site Content, you must: (a) keep intact all copyright and other proprietary notices; (b) make no modifications to the Site Content; and (c) not copy or adapt any object code associated with the Sites or reverse engineer, modify or attempt to discover any source code associated with the Site, nor allow or assist any third party in doing so. You also agree that you will not, including by use of any robot, scraper, or other data mining technology or process, frame, mask, extract data or other materials from, copy or distribute the Site Content (except as may be a result of standard search engine or Internet browser usage). Except as expressly provided in these Terms, you may not copy, reproduce, republish, modify, create derivative works of, upload, download, perform, display, post, transmit, distribute or otherwise use Site Content in any way, without the prior written permission of a duly authorized Pharmavite employee. You agree to abide by any and all copyright notices, information, or restrictions contained in any part of the Sites. Unauthorized use of Site Content may be a violation of federal and state laws and could result in civil and criminal liability.

VIRAL DISTRIBUTION

Pharmavite grants you the limited, revocable permission, subject to the restrictions in these Terms, to share portions of the Site Content with others via the following methods when a Site feature purposefully makes such sharing available (“Viral Distribution“): (a) sending Site Content to friends or acquaintances at no charge; or (b) posting and displaying a copy of Site Content on a personal web site; or (c) posting and displaying a copy of the Site Content on a third party web site that permits users to post content, so long as the posting is allowed pursuant to the third party web site’s terms and conditions and policies, and provided that the third party web site does not charge for access to those materials or associate those materials with products, services or advertising.

If you engage in Viral Distribution, you agree that you will not post any performance claims about a Pharmavite or Pharmavite brand (“Pharmavite Brand”, including but not limited to Nature Made®) product. For example, you must not claim that a Pharmavite or Pharmavite Brand product cures a disease or works in a specific way, but it would be acceptable to state “Nature Made vitamins are my favorite!” or “I think Nature Made vitamins are great!” with your Viral Distribution. In other words, you understand that only Pharmavite can make claims, promises or statements on behalf of Pharmavite about its products. You also agree that you will not imply that you and Pharmavite or any Pharmavite Brand are affiliated in any way or that Pharmavite approves of your comments.

WIDGETS

The Sites may provide certain content that you may choose to include on your personal web page, blog, third party web site or social networking profile page, or similar page by pasting the HTML or other code provided by Pharmavite and labeled as embed code (or a similar identifying label) (“Widget”). Widgets are Site Content and subject to the limited, revocable license described above. You agree that you will not include or otherwise make available a Widget on a web page or web site containing content that is distasteful, unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, harassing, tortious, defamatory, vulgar, obscene, libelous, invasive of another’s privacy, hateful, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable (in Pharmavite’s sole opinion). As described in the “Disclaimer of Warranties” section of these Terms, Pharmavite makes no specific warranties about Widgets. Pharmavite may discontinue providing the services necessary for the Widgets to operate at any time for any reason without any liability to you. You agree that our permission to you to use Widgets on your Personal Page does not provide you (or any third party) with any intellectual property rights in or to the Widget or any content made available via any Widget. In addition, Pharmavite may disable Widgets that you include on any Personal Page if you violate these Terms (as determined by Pharmavite in its sole discretion) or for any or no reason, without any liability to you. You also agree to not use (or attempt to use) the Widget to display content other than the content provided or intended by Pharmavite to be displayed via a particular Widget.

REPORTING COPYRIGHT AND OTHER INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY VIOLATIONS

You may not use the Sites for any purpose or in any manner that infringes the rights of any third party. Pharmavite encourages you to report any content on the Sites that you believe infringes your rights. Only the intellectual property rights owner or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner can report potentially infringing content. If you have a good faith belief that content on a Site infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, please follow the procedures set forth below.

In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA“), Pharmavite has a designated agent for receiving notices of copyright infringement and Pharmavite follows the notice and take down procedures of the DMCA. If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide Pharmavite’s copyright agent (whose contact information is set forth below) the following information required by the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act of the DMCA, 17 U.S.C. 512: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyright work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site; (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (d) information reasonably sufficient to permit us to contact the complaining party; (e) 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 (f) 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 that any content on a Site contains content that violates your rights other than copyrights, please provide Pharmavite with at least the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (c) an explanation of what rights you own/have and why you believe the content infringes your rights sufficient for us to evaluate your complaint; and (d) accurate contact information for you.

Please send your notice of claims of copyright infringement on or regarding a Site or a complaint regarding alleged violation of rights other than copyrights to Pharmavite’ s copyright agent, who can be reached as follows:

NOTE: This contact information is for notices or complaints regarding potential copyright and other infringement only.

We have a policy of terminating the accounts of users who (in our reasonable discretion) are repeat infringers.

It is often difficult to determine if your intellectual property rights have been violated or if the DMCA requirements have been met. We may request additional information before we remove any infringing material. If a dispute develops as to the correct owner of the rights in question, we reserve the right to remove your content along with that of the alleged infringer pending resolution of the matter.

Pharmavite will provide you with notice if your materials have been removed based on a third party complaint of alleged infringement of the third party’s intellectual property rights.

INFORMATION AND CONTENT YOU SUBMIT

The Sites may provide you the opportunity to participate and post content publicly in forums, through interactive features and through other communication functionality (collectively, “Community Forums“).

You agree that you either: (i) own the rights to the User Content you submit and the right to grant all of the rights and licenses in these Terms; or (ii) you have all necessary rights and licenses from the owner(s) of these rights to enter into these Terms and grant Pharmavite the license below. Upon Pharmavite’s request, you will furnish Pharmavite any documentation, substantiation or releases necessary to verify your compliance with these Terms.

You also acknowledge that the Internet may be subject to breaches of security and should be aware that submissions of User Content or other information may not be secure, and you should consider this before submitting any information to Pharmavite.

You remain the owner of your User Content, but you acknowledge that Pharmavite must have a license from you in order to accept your User Content. Accordingly, you grant to Pharmavite and its parents, affiliates, subsidiaries, successors in interest, licensees, and assigns, and each of their officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives and employees (each a “Pharmavite Party” and, collectively, the “Pharmavite Parties”) an unrestricted, worldwide, irrevocable, perpetual, transferable and royalty-free license (but not obligation) to host, use, copy, distribute, display, perform, modify, translate, store or otherwise exploit all or any portion of your User Content for any purpose whatsoever in all formats, on or through any media, technology or device now known or hereafter developed.

You further agree that Pharmavite is free to use any ideas or concepts contained in any User Content for any purposes whatsoever, including, without limitation, developing, manufacturing and marketing products and services; and creating informational articles, without any payment of any kind to you. You authorize Pharmavite to publish your User Content in a searchable format that may be accessed by users of the Sites and the Internet. Except as prohibited by law, you waive any moral rights you may have in any User Content you submit, even if such User Content is altered or changed in a manner not agreeable to you.

You further acknowledge and agree that Pharmavite will not have any obligation to you with regard to User Content and that Pharmavite may or may not monitor, display or accept your User Content and may delete it at any time.

Unsolicited Ideas. Please do not send unsolicited User Content to the Sites or any Pharmavite Party. Pharmavite does not accept unsolicited User Content, including, without limitation, for products, services, websites or features. We wish to avoid any misunderstandings when projects developed by or on behalf of Pharmavite may seem to others to be similar to their own creative ideas or materials. Therefore, please do not make any such unsolicited User Content to Pharmavite through the Sites, including Community Forums, by e-mail, or otherwise. However, if you decide to make any such unsolicited Submission, you agree to grant to Pharmavite the right and license to your Submission as set forth in the Section “Information and Content You Submit” above.

USER CONTENT POLICY

When you contribute, upload or otherwise provide User Content to the Sites, you agree to comply with the following requirements:

  • User Content must be your own.

Upon Pharmavite’s request, you will furnish Pharmavite any documentation, substantiation or releases necessary to verify your compliance with these Terms.

  • No pictures or images of anyone but you and your friends and family. If you choose to upload photos to the Sites, link to embedded videos, or include other images of real people, make sure they are of you or of you and someone you know and that you have their express permission to post it.

  • No third party materials. Your User Content should not contain any visible logos, phrases or trademarks or other third party materials. Do not use or submit any User Content that belongs to another person without that person’s permission (e.g., including uploading content found elsewhere on the Internet).

  • No music please. Your User Content may not contain any music unless you wrote and perform it or you have all rights to the work, including any performances. No jingles, sampling, or otherwise, using existing music.

  • Keep User Content relevant. Your User Content should relate to the content on the Sites and should be intended to add to the discussion on the Sites – it should not include irrelevant topics or postings.

  • Follow codes of social decency. Be respectful. Do not make personal attacks. Express yourself with non-offensive individual self-expression. Cursing, harassing, stalking, posting insulting comments, personal attacks, gossip or similar actions are prohibited. Your User Content may not threaten, abuse or harm others. Your User Content may not include any negative comments that are connected to race, national origin, gender, sexual preference or physical handicap or that are defamatory, slanderous, indecent, obscene, pornographic or sexually explicit. If you think your User Content might offend someone, chances are that it will – so it does not belong on the Sites.

  • Represent yourself truthfully. Do not impersonate any other person, user or company or upload or post User Content that you know is false, fraudulent, deceptive, inaccurate, misleading or that misrepresents your identity or affiliation with a person, Pharmavite or any other company.

  • Keep private information private. Remember that Community Forums are public and User Content will be accessible and viewable by other users. Do not post personal information about yourself or any other person (for example, never reveal passwords, phone numbers, street addresses, credit card numbers, e-mail address, or any information that may be used to track, contact, or impersonate an individual, or which is personal in nature). If there is something you do not want the world to see, do not post it on the Sites.

Pharmavite controls and operates the Sites from offices located in the United States and makes no representations or warranties that the information, products or services contained on the Sites are appropriate for use or access in other locations. Anyone using or accessing the Sites from other locations does so on their own initiative and is responsible for compliance with United States’ and local laws regarding online conduct and acceptable content, if and to the extent such laws are applicable.

DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION

Any dispute you have with Pharmavite should be submitted to Pharmavite’s Consumer Affairs Department within thirty days of the event giving rise to the dispute. The Consumer Affairs Department can be contacted via postal mail at: P.O. Box 9606, Mission Hills, CA 91346-9606, Attention: Consumer Affairs Department via email at: [email protected] Please allow at least thirty (30) days for Pharmavite to address your complaint prior to taking further action.

Except for disputes relating to the infringement of your or Pharmavite’s intellectual property (such as trademarks, trade dress, copyright and patents) or where you or Pharmavite are seeking a preliminary injunction (“Excluded Disputes”), you agree that all disputes between you and Pharmavite (whether or not such dispute involves a third party) with regard to these Terms, your use of the Sites, your purchase of any Pharmavite Brand product, or any Pharmavite Brand advertisement or promotion, will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes and you hereby expressly waive trial by jury. Neither you nor Pharmavite will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any claims covered by this agreement.

This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and, where consistent, California law. The arbitration will be conducted in Los Angeles County, California, in the English language by three arbitrators appointed in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s Rules. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either Pharmavite or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. At your election, desktop or telephone arbitration, if available, can be used for claims of less than $10,000. In-person arbitration hearings will be conducted at the place of your residence at the time the dispute is submitted to arbitration. Pharmavite will pay the costs for arbitration (not including your attorney’s fees) for claims under $5,000 where you are successful. In all other cases, you will bear 50% of the cost of any arbitration and you alone will be responsible for your attorney’s fees. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrators will not have authority to award punitive or exemplary damages.

THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS (AS DISTINGUISHED FROM THE CHOICE OF LAW RULES) OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SHALL GOVERN THE VALIDITY AND INTERPRETATION OF THESE TERMS AND ALL CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS. THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS, IF OTHERWISE APPLICABLE, SHALL NOT APPLY.

You agree that any action at law or in equity relating to the arbitration provision of these Terms or the Excluded Disputes will be filed only in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California and you hereby consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating any such action.

If any provision of these Terms if held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or during an arbitration per the arbitration terms above, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. Pharmavite reserves the right to change this dispute resolution provision, but any such changes will not apply to disputes arising before the effective date of the amendment. This dispute resolution provision will survive the termination of any or all of your transactions with Pharmavite.

MISCELLANEOUS

The failure of Pharmavite to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Terms or to act with respect to a breach of these Terms by you or others does not constitute a waiver and will not limit Pharmavite’s rights with respect to such breach or any subsequent breaches. No waiver by Pharmavite of any of these Terms will be of any force or effect unless made in writing and signed by a duly authorized office of Pharmavite, nor will such a waiver be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify these Terms. Pharmavite may assign its rights and duties under these Terms to any party at any time without any notice to you. However, you may not assign, transfer, or sublicense these Terms except with the prior written consent of Pharmavite. Headings and paragraph or section titles are inserted only as a matter of convenience and do not, and shall not be used to, explain any paragraph or provision. You agree that these Terms will not be construed against Pharmavite by virtue of Pharmavite having drafted these Terms.

OUR RIGHT TO UPDATE THESE TERMS

Pharmavite reserves the right to modify or add to these Terms at any time without prior notice (“Updated Terms“). You agree that we may notify you of the Updated Terms by posting them on the Sites so that they are accessible via a link on the home page, and that your use of the Sites after we have posted the Updated Terms (or engaging in such other conduct as we may reasonably specify) constitutes your agreement to the Updated Terms.
