license to use, reproduce, create derivative works from, modify, publish, edit, translate, distribute,

Submissions as permitted through the functionality of the Site and under these Terms of Use. Flag Star Foundation

You shall be solely responsible for your own User Submissions and the consequences of posting or
publishing them. In connection with User Submissions, you affirm, represent, and warrant that: you own
or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize Flag Star Foundation to use all
patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights in and to any and all User

Flag Star Foundation does not endorse any User Submission, or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed

material contained in any User Submission or other communication you may send to Flag Star Foundation without
compensation to you or attribution and for any purpose whatsoever, including, but not limited to,
developing, manufacturing and marketing products or services and creating, modifying or improving the
Site or other web sites. Should you send any unsolicited materials or ideas, you do so with the
understanding that no consideration of any sort will be provided to you, and you are waiving any claim
against the Flag Star Foundation Parties regarding the use of such materials and ideas, even if material or an idea is
used that is substantially similar to the idea you sent.
11. Disputes
IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOU READ THIS ENTIRE SECTION CAREFULLY. THIS SECTION PROVIDES FOR
RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL
ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF BY A JUDGE OR JURY. ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE WILL
TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS ARE NOT
ALLOWED.
Each party waives its right to a jury trial in any court action arising between the parties under these
Terms of Use or otherwise related to these Terms of Use, whether made by claim, counterclaim, third-
party claim, or otherwise.
Subject to this Section 11, all disputes between you and the Flag Star Foundation Parties must be resolved by final
and binding arbitration. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be given the broadest meaning under
law and includes, but is not limited to, (i) disputes and claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of
the relationship between you and the Flag Star Foundation Parties, whether based in statute, fraud, tort, contract,
misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, (ii) disputes and claims that arose before this or any prior
agreement, and (iii) disputes and claims concerning the scope of this arbitration provision. The
arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator using the procedures described in this Section 11. The
arbitration of any dispute shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and
shall be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and Supplementary
Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, as modified by this these Terms of Use, which are in effect
on the date a dispute is submitted to the AAA. To the extent that such procedures differ from these
Terms of Use, these Terms of Use shall govern to the fullest extent permitted by law. You have the right
to be represented by counsel in an arbitration. In conducting the arbitration and making any award, the
arbitrator shall be bound by and strictly enforce the terms of these Terms of Use and may not limit,
expand, or otherwise modify their terms.
Before you take a dispute to arbitration, you must first write to Flag Star Foundation at:
Flag Star Football Foundation
2636 Moreland Place NW
Washington, DC 20015
and give Flag Star Foundation an opportunity to resolve the dispute. Similarly, before Flag Star Foundation takes a dispute to
arbitration, Flag Star Foundation must first attempt to resolve it by contacting you. If the dispute cannot be
satisfactorily resolved within thirty (30) days from the date you or Flag Star Foundation is notified by the other of a
dispute, then either party may contact the AAA in writing and request arbitration of the dispute.
Information about the arbitration process and the AAA’s Arbitration Rules and its fees are available
at www.adr.org. The arbitration will be based only on written submissions of the parties and the
documents submitted to the AAA relating to the dispute, unless either party requests that the
arbitration be conducted using the AAA’s telephonic, online, or in-person procedures. Additional charges
may apply for these procedures. Any in-person arbitration will be conducted at a location the AAA
selects in Los Angeles, California. Arbitrations under these Terms of Use shall be confidential as
permitted by federal law. However, by filing for arbitration, you may elect to relieve both parties to the
arbitration of confidentiality obligations. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be
entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator's fees shall be deposited equally by the
parties, but may be awarded by the arbitrator as provided in the AAA rules.
Nothing in this Section 11 or otherwise shall preclude the Flag Star Foundation Parties from seeking any injunctive
relief in any court of competent jurisdiction for protection of the Flag Star Foundation Parties’ intellectual property
rights or other proprietary rights. You acknowledge and agree that the Flag Star Foundation Parties’ remedies at law
for a breach or threatened breach by you of any of the provisions of these Terms of Use would be
inadequate and therefore agree that in the event of a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any
remedies at law, the Flag Star Foundation Parties shall, without posting any bond or other security, be entitled to
obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, a temporary restraining order, a temporary
or permanent injunction, or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.
All rights and remedies of Flag Star Foundation upon your breach or other default under these Terms of Use will be
deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy conferred by these Terms of Use or
by law or equity on Flag Star Foundation, and the exercise of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any
other.
These Terms of Use are governed by the internal substantive laws of the District of Columbia, without
reference to its conflict of the laws principles. No waiver of any of these Terms of Use shall be deemed a
further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition.
12. Revisions to Terms of Use
These Terms of Use may be revised, modified, altered or updated (collectively, “Modified Terms”) by
Flag Star Foundation at any time in its sole discretion. Such Modified Terms shall be effective immediately upon the
posting thereof on the Site. Any use of the Site by you after such posting shall be deemed to constitute
acceptance of such Modified Terms. It is your obligation to check this page often for Modified Terms.
13. Entire Agreement
These Terms of Use, as modified from time to time by Flag Star Foundation, and including Flag Star Foundation’s Privacy Policy
incorporated herein by reference, set forth the entire understanding and agreement of the parties
relating to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any prior or contemporaneous understandings of
any kind or nature. By agreeing to these terms, you represent that you are not relying on any
agreement, representation or warranty pertaining to the subject matter hereof that is not expressly set
forth herein.
14. Severability
If any arbitrator or any court of competent jurisdiction declares any provision of these Terms of Use to
be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable as drafted, the parties intend that such provision be amended and
construed in a manner designed to effectuate the purposes of the provision to the fullest extent
permitted by law. If such provision cannot be so amended and construed, it shall be severed, and the
remaining provisions shall remain unimpaired and in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted
by law. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any interpretation of these Terms of Use will not be
construed against a party by virtue of its having drafted the provisions hereunder.
15. Digital Millennium Copyright Act
It is Flag Star Foundation’s policy to respect the intellectual property rights of others. If you are a copyright owner or
an agent thereof and believe that any User Submission or other communication or material infringes
upon your copyrights, you may submit a notification pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
(“DMCA”) by providing our Copyright Agent with the following information in writing (see 17 U.S.C. §
512(c)(3) for further detail):
· A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an
exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
· Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple
copyrighted works on the Site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such
works;
· Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing
activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled and information
reasonably sufficient to permit Flag Star Foundation to locate the material;
· Information reasonably sufficient to permit Flag Star Foundation to contact you, such as an address,
telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address;
· A statement that you have 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
· A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury,
that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed.
Flag Star Foundation’s designated Copyright Agent to receive notifications of claimed infringement is: Copyright
Officer, 2636 Moreland Pl NW, Washington, DC 20015. For clarity, only DMCA notices should go to the
Copyright Agent; any other feedback, comments, requests for technical support, and other
communications should be directed to Flag Star Foundation’s customer service. You acknowledge that if you fail to
comply with all of the requirements set forth above, your DMCA notice may not be valid.
If you are the owner or an agent thereof, of material that was removed from the Site or disabled after
Flag Star Foundation received a copyright infringement notice, and you have a good faith belief that the material
was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material, you may ask that the
material be restored by sending Flag Star Foundation a counter-notification. Section 512(g) of the Copyright Act
requires that your counter-notification include all of the following:
· Your physical or electronic signature;
· Identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and
the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled;
· A statement that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed or disabled as a
result of mistake or a misidentification of the content; and
· Your name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, a statement that you consent to
the jurisdiction of the federal courts in the District of Columbia, and a statement that you will
