All content included as part of the Site, such as text, graphics, logos, audio, images, as well as the compilation thereof, and any software used on the Site (collectively, the “Sonobeat Content”), is the property of Sonobeat Historical Archives or its suppliers and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws that protect intellectual property and proprietary rights.

We reserve the right but have no obligation, at our own cost, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to your indemnification, in which event you will fully cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.
Arbitation
If you and we are unable to resolve any legal dispute between you and us arising out of or concerning these Terms or any provisions hereof, whether in contract, tort, or otherwise at law or in equity for damages or any other relief, then such dispute shall be resolved only by final and binding arbitration pursuant to the The United States Arbitration Act (“Federal Arbitration Act”), conducted by a single neutral arbitrator and administered by the American Arbitration Association or a similar arbitration service selected by the parties, in a location in Los Angeles County in the State of California, United States of America. The arbitrator’s award shall be final, and judgment may be entered upon it in any court having jurisdiction. If any legal or equitable action, proceeding, or arbitration arises out of or concerns these Terms, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its costs and reasonable attorney’s fees. The parties agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims in regards to these Terms or any disputes arising as a result of these Terms, whether directly or indirectly, including tort claims that are a result of these Terms. The parties agree that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. The entire dispute, including the scope and enforceability of this arbitration provision, shall be determined by the arbitrator. This arbitration provision shall survive the termination of these Terms.
Class action waiver
Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis. No class arbitrations and no class, representative, or collective actions are permitted. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT A PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN EACH’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PUTATIVE CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, SUCH AS IN THE FORM OF A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

Termination/access restriction
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate your access to the Site or any portion thereof at any time, without notice. To the maximum extent permitted by law, these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, and you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of arbitrators, and if there is found any defect in the arbitration provisions of these Terms, the federal and state courts located in Los Angeles County, California, in all disputes arising out of or relating to the use of the Site.

If any part of these Terms is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision, and the remainder of the Terms shall continue in effect.
Unless otherwise specified herein, these Terms, including our Privacy and Cookie Policies, constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Site, and these terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or written, between you and us with respect to the Site. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or information proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. It is the express desire of the parties that these Terms and all related documents be written in English.
