    You further represent and warrant that you are not a person barred from accessing or using the Service under the laws of your country of residence or any other applicable jurisdiction.

  2. OTHER AGREEMENTS AND TERMS

    (a)
    In addition to the TOU, your access to and use of the Service are further subject to the Muse Privacy Policy and any usage or other policies relating to the Service posted or otherwise made available to you by Muse, including any purchase, subscription or other similar terms posted within the Service (the Privacy Policy and any such usage or other policies, collectively, “Additional Terms”). The Additional Terms are part of the TOU and are hereby incorporated by reference, and you agree to be bound by the Additional Terms.


    (b)
    You acknowledge and agree that:
    1. by accessing or using the Service, Muse may receive certain information about you, including personal information, and Muse may collect, use, disclose, store and process such information in accordance with the TOU, including any Additional Terms; and
    2. technical processing and transmission of data, including Your Content (defined in Section 9(a)), associated with the Service may require transmissions over various networks and changes to conform and adapt to technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.

  3. REGISTRATION AND ACCOUNT

    (a)
    You may browse and access some parts of the Service without registering, but some features may not be accessible unless you register. In registering for the Service, you agree to:
    1. provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the Service’s registration form (the “Registration Data”); and
    2. maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it true, accurate, current and complete.


    If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current or incomplete, or Muse reasonably suspects that you have done so, Muse may suspend or terminate your account.


    (b)
    You may not share your account or password with anyone. You are fully responsible for all activities that occur under your account, whether or not you authorized the particular use, and regardless of your knowledge of such use. Upon becoming aware of any unauthorized access to or use of your account or password or any other similar breach of security, you shall promptly notify Muse.


    (c)
    If your account remains inactive for three months or longer, Muse reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account, with or without notice to you, and delete Your Content.

  4. ENTERPRISE LICENSING AND USER ACCESS


    (a)
    If you are a business or enterprise user, you agree to pay for the number of individual users (employees, contractors, or agents) who access and use our product or services. Each user accessing our product under your account must be covered by a separate license. This includes any use by individuals on behalf of the business (employees, contractors, or agents) that is related to the business in any way, regardless of whether they are accessing the product directly or indirectly.


    (b)
    We reserve the right to monitor the number of users accessing our product. In the event of non-compliance with the licensing terms (i.e., unauthorized users accessing the product without an appropriate license), we may, at our discretion, suspend or terminate access to the product for all or part of your account until the appropriate licensing fees are paid. Additionally, any failure to report the correct number of users and pay licensing fees for users who are accessing the platform entitles Muse to the payment of any unpaid fees, as well as interest on such unpaid fees. Interest will accrue at the lesser of 1.5% per month (18% per annum) or the highest rate permitted by applicable law, calculated from the date such fees were originally due until the date they are paid in full. This interest provision is based on standard commercial practices and is intended to incentivize timely compliance.


    (c)
    You are responsible for managing the number of users under your account and ensuring compliance with these terms. Any additional users beyond the number of seats purchased will require payment in accordance with our pricing model.

  5. SMS AND TEXT MESSAGES
    Some portions of the Service may allow you to provide Muse with your phone number for receipt of certain transaction, marketing and other communications via SMS from Muse. By providing your phone number, you consent to receipt of such communications at the number provided. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. Reply HELP for help or STOP to cancel.

  6. FEES AND TAXES


    (a)
    You are solely responsible for any data, usage and other charges assessed by mobile, cable, internet or other communications services providers for your access to and use of the Service. Some features of the Service are free to use, but fees may apply for subscriptions, premium features and other components (“Paid Subscriptions”). If there is a fee listed for any portion of the Service, by accessing or using that portion, you agree to pay the fee. Your access to the Service may be suspended or terminated if you do not make payment in full when due. If you sign up for a Paid Subscription, your Paid Subscription will automatically renew at the conclusion of the then-current term unless you turn off auto-renewal at least 24 hours before the conclusion of the then-current term. Uninstalling the Service or ceasing to access or use it will not automatically cancel your Paid Subscription or turn off auto-renewal. You must cancel your Paid Subscription or turn off auto-renewal to end recurring charges. If you simply uninstall the Mobile Apps (defined in Section 7(a)) without canceling your Paid Subscription or turning off auto-renewal, the recurring charges for your Paid Subscription will continue. Canceling a Paid Subscription or turning off auto-renewal will not entitle you to a refund of any fees already paid, and previously charged fees will not be pro-rated based upon cancellation.


    (b)
    If you purchase a Paid Subscription through a third party, such as through an in-app purchase processed by an app store, separate terms and conditions with such third party may apply to your access or use of the Service in addition to the TOU. Please contact the third party regarding any refunds or to manage your Paid Subscription.


    (c)
    Any and all amounts payable hereunder by you are exclusive of any value-added, sales, use, excise or other similar taxes (collectively, “Taxes”). You are solely responsible for paying all applicable Taxes, except for any Taxes based upon Muse’s net income. If Muse has the legal obligation to collect any Taxes, you shall reimburse Muse upon invoice by Muse.

  22. BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

    (a)

THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED.


    (b)
    The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its then-applicable Commercial Arbitration Rules or, as appropriate, its Consumer Arbitration Rules. The AAA’s rules are available at http://www.adr.org/. The arbitrator will, among other things, have the power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of the arbitration agreement or to the arbitrability of any Claims. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language by a single independent and neutral arbitrator. For any hearing conducted in person as part of the arbitration, such hearing will be conducted in the County and State of New York, or, if the Consumer Arbitration Rules apply, another location reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances, as determined by the arbitrator. The decision of the arbitrator on all matters relating to the Claim will be final and binding. Judgment on the arbitral award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.


    (c)
    YOU AND MUSE EACH:
    1. AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS (DEFINED IN SECTION 1(b)) WILL BE RESOLVED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, ARBITRATION OR OTHER SIMILAR PROCESS; AND
    2. EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A CLAIM DETERMINED OR RESOLVED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS.


    If for any reason the provisions of the preceding sentence are held to be invalid or unenforceable in a case in which class, collective, consolidated or representative claims have been asserted, the provisions of this Section 22 requiring binding arbitration will likewise be unenforceable and null and void. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and Muse each waive any right to a jury trial and agree that such claim will be brought only in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (if federal jurisdiction applies) or a state court of competent jurisdiction in the County and State of New York. You hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any objection on the grounds of venue, forum non-conveniens or any similar grounds with respect to any such claim.


    (d)
    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you and Muse may seek injunctive relief and any other equitable remedies from any court of competent jurisdiction to protect our intellectual property rights, whether in aid of, pending or independently of the resolution of any dispute pursuant to the arbitration procedures set forth in this Section 22.


    (e)
    If Muse implements any material change to this Section 22, such change will not apply to any Claim for which you provided written notice to Muse before the implementation of the change.

  23. LEGAL COMPLIANCE

  28. GENERAL PROVISIONS
    The TOU (together with the Additional Terms) constitutes the entire agreement between you and Muse concerning your access to and use of the Service. It supersedes all prior and contemporaneous oral or written negotiations and agreements between you and Muse with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between or among the TOU and any Additional Terms, the TOU will take precedence and govern. The TOU may not be amended by you except in a writing executed by you and an authorized representative of Muse. For the purposes of the TOU, the words “such as,” “include,” “includes” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” You may not assign or delegate any right or obligation under the TOU without the prior written consent of Muse. Muse may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations under the TOU without your consent. The failure of Muse to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOU will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the TOU is held to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, then such provision will be construed, limited, modified or, if necessary, severed to the extent necessary to eliminate its invalidity or unenforceability, without in any way affecting the remaining parts of the TOU. Any prevention of or delay in performance by Muse hereunder due to any act of god, fire, casualty, flood, war, strike, lock out, failure of public utilities, injunction or any act, exercise, assertion or requirement of any governmental entity, epidemic, pandemic, public health crisis, destruction of production facilities, insurrection or any other cause beyond Muse’s reasonable control will excuse the performance of its obligations for a period equal to the duration of any such prevention or delay.
