Copyright Infringement and DMCA Notices

Pearl Street respects intellectual property rights and expects users of the Website to do the same. If you believe that material available on or through the Website infringes your copyright, you may send a notice under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”) to Pearl Street’s registered DMCA agent at info@pearlstreetsystems.com.

A DMCA takedown notice must include the following information:

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner;
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notice, a representative list of those works;
  • Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, with information reasonably sufficient to permit Pearl Street to locate the material;
  • Your contact information, including address, telephone number, and, if available, email 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 notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

If material you submitted to the Website is removed or disabled in response to a DMCA notice, you may send a counter-notification to info@pearlstreetsystems.com. A counter-notification must include the following information:

  • Your physical or electronic signature;
  • Identification of the material that has been removed or disabled and the location where the material appeared before it was removed or disabled;
  • A statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification;
  • Your name, address, and telephone number; and
  • A statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the judicial district in which your address is located, or, if your address is outside the United States, to the jurisdiction of the federal district court for the District of New Jersey, and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided the original DMCA notice or that person’s agent.

Pearl Street may remove or disable access to material alleged to infringe copyrights and may terminate, in appropriate circumstances, users or account holders who are repeat infringers. Because the Website does not currently offer user accounts or public posting features, this repeat-infringer policy applies to any user-submitted content or future account-based functionality to the extent applicable.

Pearl Street does not assume responsibility for user-submitted content and will not be liable for removing, disabling, preserving, restoring, or declining to restore content in response to a DMCA notice, counter-notification, court order, or other legal process, except to the extent liability cannot be limited under applicable law.

Limitation on Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY, ITS AFFILIATES, OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS, OR DIRECTORS BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE WEBSITE, ANY WEBSITES LINKED TO IT, ANY CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE OR SUCH OTHER WEBSITES, OR ANY INFORMATION SUBMITTED THROUGH THE WEBSITE, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT, INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE.

The limitation of liability set out above does not apply to liability resulting from our gross negligence or willful misconduct, or to liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.

THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates, licensors, service providers, and its and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, suppliers, successors, and assigns from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, expenses, or fees, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, arising out of or relating to your violation of these Terms of Use, your misuse of the Website, your submission of information or materials through the Website, your violation of any rights of another person or entity, or your use of any Website content, services, or information other than as expressly authorized in these Terms of Use.

Governing Law and Jurisdiction

All matters relating to the Website and these Terms of Use, and any dispute or claim arising from or related to them, including non-contractual disputes or claims, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New Jersey without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.

Subject to the Commercial Arbitration section, any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the Website that is not required to be arbitrated, including any action to compel arbitration, enforce an arbitral award, or seek injunctive or emergency relief, will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of New Jersey, in each case located in New Jersey. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.

BINDING ARBITRATION

Except for claims that qualify for small claims court and requests for injunctive or emergency equitable relief, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, the Website, or your use of the Website will be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules.

The arbitration will take place in Somerville, New Jersey, unless the parties agree in writing to another location or remote proceeding. The arbitrator will apply the internal laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.

The arbitration will be heard by one neutral arbitrator, unless the AAA rules require otherwise or the parties agree in writing to a three-arbitrator panel. The arbitrator may award any relief available in court, subject to the limitations and exclusions in these Terms of Use.

Each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration, except that the AAA filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be allocated as provided by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules unless the arbitrator determines that applicable law requires a different allocation. The arbitrator may award fees or costs to the prevailing party only if authorized by applicable law or a written agreement between the parties.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking temporary, preliminary, emergency, or permanent injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights, confidential information, privacy rights, security controls, or the availability or integrity of the Website.

Class Action Waiver

You and the Company agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff, claimant, or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not preside over any class, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative proceeding.

If any portion of this Class Action Waiver is found unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or request for relief, then that claim or request for relief will proceed in court and not in arbitration, and any arbitrable claims will be stayed pending the outcome of the court proceeding unless the parties agree otherwise.

Limitation on Time to File Claims

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OF USE OR THE WEBSITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, and our Cookie Policy, together with any written terms or agreements that expressly apply to a Pearl Street proposal, project, product, or service, constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Pearl Street Systems and Engineering, LLC regarding the Website and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Website.
