Description of the DeltaSport Platform. The DeltaSport Platform is a social platform created specifically for sports leagues (including school leagues, recreational leagues, and clubs), teams, events, spectators, and fans, and we have designed DeltaSport to promote positive and healthy social interactions. Every DeltaSport user is assigned to one or more roles, such as Spectator, Team Member, Team Owner, or League Owner (each, a “User Role”) that allow the user to interact with the DeltaSport Platform and other users in various ways, including viewing scores and other information about Events, Teams, and Team Members, creating and sharing a Team Member profile, creating and sharing posts (including text, photo, or video content), sharing live video transmissions, posting comments, reacting to content (such as by “liking” a post), connecting with or following Teams, Team Members, or Events, exchanging messages with other Team Members, and creating and managing Leagues, Teams, and Events. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible or liable for the actions or inactions of users, Team Owners, League Owners, or any other person. If you join a Team in DeltaSport, or request to join a Team in DeltaSport, you acknowledge and agree that we may provide certain information about you to the applicable Team Owner and League Owner, including your name, contact information, profile picture, and Identity Verification Status.

Identity Verification.
7.1. Generally. In certain situations, such as for a parent or legal guardian to authorize the User Account of an Eligible Minor or to access certain content, you may be required to verify your identity (“Identity Verification”) by completing an identity verification process. In some situations, a Team Owner may choose for such Identity Verification to be performed by a third-party identity verification provider (an “Identity Verification Provider”) through a system integrated with the DeltaSport Platform (an “Integrated ID Verification System”) or through other methods selected by the Team Owner. If you complete Identity Verification through an Integrated ID Verification System, for each such Identity Verification we will record the type, scope, status, and date of that Identity Verification (collectively, your “Identity Verification Status”) as part of your Account Information, and we may share your Identity Verification Status with other users and Team Owners. You represent and warrant to the DeltaSport Parties and to every user and Team Owner that the information and documentation you provide in connection with any identity verification process or background check process will be true, complete, and accurate, that you will not provide any false, fraudulent, misleading, or counterfeit information or documents, and that you will not fail to disclose any material information requested in connection with any Identity Verification.
7.2. Identity Verification Fee. If a Team Owner or an Identity Verification Provider requires you to pay a fee (an “Identity Verification Fee”) in connection with your Identity Verification, we may, as the Network Owner’s or the Identity Verification Provider’s limited payment collection agent, charge you the applicable Identity Verification Fee using your Payment Information. If you choose or are required to pay an Identity Verification Fee through the DeltaSport Platform, you agree that you will provide complete and accurate billing contact and payment information (your “Payment Information”) as part of your Account Information. Subject to our Privacy Policy, your Payment Information may be transmitted to and stored by a third-party payment processor. You are responsible for making full and complete payment for any applicable Identity Verification Fee. In no event are we responsible for any failure to process any payments. In the event of a charge back by a credit card issuer, or any similar action by a payment provider or processor (a “Charge Back”), you agree that we may suspend, close, or terminate your User Account. Except as otherwise expressly stated in this Agreement or as otherwise expressly determined by Salmon Upstream or the applicable Team Owner or Identity Verification Provider, all payments are final and non-refundable.

Dispute Resolution – PLEASE READ CAREFULLY: This Section 15 includes important provisions that affect your legal rights, including, for example, a waiver of the right to a jury, a waiver of the right to participate in a class action or similar proceeding, a limitation of the period of time for bringing a claim against us, and an agreement that all court proceedings will take place only in the City of Lynchburg, Virginia.
15.1. Initial Dispute Resolution. We believe you will have a positive experience using the DeltaSport Platform and all of the DeltaSport Services, and we invite you to contact us about any questions or issues you experience. We want to address any concerns you may have about the DeltaSport Services without needing to engage in a formal legal process. As used herein, “Dispute” (collectively, “Disputes”) refers to any controversy, disagreement, dispute, cause of action, or claim. You and Salmon Upstream agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute through an informal dispute resolution process (the “Informal Dispute Resolution Process”) and agree to work in good faith to settle and resolve any Dispute before joining or filing a lawsuit. Either you or Salmon Upstream may initiate the Informal Dispute Resolution Process by sending written notice requesting informal dispute resolution and describing the Dispute in detail (the “Informal Resolution Request”) to the other party, as follows (a) if to Salmon Upstream, by Certified Mail to: DeltaSport Dispute Resolution, c/o Andrew Stockment, P.O. Box 2057, Charlottesville, VA 22902; or (b) if to you, by using any of the contact information in your Account Information. As part of the Informal Dispute Resolution Process, you and we agree to work in good faith to settle any Dispute directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, which is a prerequisite to either you or Salmon Upstream joining or initiating formal legal proceedings (except for claims brought by Salmon Upstream pursuant to Section 15.3 below). If you and Salmon Upstream do not reach a mutually agreed resolution within a period of thirty (30) days from the date the Informal Resolution Request is given pursuant to this Section 15.1 (the “Informal Resolution Period”), then either you or Salmon Upstream may initiate formal legal proceedings. You and Salmon Upstream expressly waive the right to assert or request, and agree not to assert or request, any claims or remedies (including any amounts of monetary damages) in any lawsuit or court proceeding that were not first asserted or requested through the Informal Dispute Resolution Process during the Informal Resolution Period. You and Salmon Upstream may, by mutual agreement, extend the Informal Resolution Period.
15.2. Class Action Waiver and Right to Opt-out.
15.2.1. WE AGREE THAT WE MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST YOU, AND YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE DELTASPORT PARTIES, ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU AND WE EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO ASSERT ANY CLAIMS AGAINST YOU OR AGAINST ANY OF THE SALMON UPSTREAM PARTIES AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, EXCEPT WHERE SUCH WAIVER IS PROHIBITED BY LAW OR DEEMED BY A COURT OF LAW TO BE AGAINST PUBLIC POLICY. Unless both you and Salmon Upstream agree, no judge or court may consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The judge or court may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
15.2.2. You have the right to opt-out of the above class action waiver provision by completing, signing, and mailing the Opt-out Notice form located at https://www.salmonupstream.com/deltasport-app-opt-out-notice/ within sixty (60) days after the date you created your User Account. In order for the Opt-out Notice to be valid and effective, it must be completed in its entirety and signed by you, and you understand and agree that you are responsible for retaining proof of mailing and delivery. If you exercise your option to opt out as provided in this paragraph, then Section 15.2.1 above will not apply and will not be considered a part of this Agreement.
15.2.3. If (a) you exercise your opt-out right pursuant to Section 15.2.2 above, or (b) you or we are permitted by law or by any court to proceed with a class or representative action against you or any of the Salmon Upstream Parties, then you and we agree that: (i) the prevailing party will not be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees or costs associated with pursuing the class or representative action (not withstanding any other provision in this Agreement); and (ii) the party who initiates or participates as a member of the class will not submit a claim or otherwise participate in any recovery secured through the class or representative action.
15.3. Injunctive Relief. You acknowledge and agree that any violation of our Policies may cause irreparable harm to the DeltaSport Parties (or other users or third parties), for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy. Therefore, notwithstanding Section 15.1 above, you agree that: (a) we will be entitled to immediate injunctive relief to enjoin any actual, suspected, threatened, or potential violation by you of our Policies; (b) we will be entitled to such injunctive relief without any obligation (i) to post a bond or other security, (ii) to prove actual damages or to prove that monetary damages will not provide an adequate remedy, or (iii) to participate in the Informal Dispute Resolution Process or wait until the end of the Informal Resolution Period before ; and (c) you will not oppose or otherwise challenge the appropriateness of injunctive relief or the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of an order granting injunctive relief.
15.4. Venue for Judicial Actions. Any and all claims and Disputes arising out of or relating to (a) this Agreement, (b) the DeltaSport Platform, the DeltaSport Materials, or any of the DeltaSport Services (or the use of any of the foregoing by you or any other person), (c) the performance or non-performance by you or us of any of obligations under this Agreement, or (d) actual or alleged infringement by you, any of the DeltaSport Parties, or the DeltaSport Materials or the DeltaSport Services of any Intellectual Property Rights, will be commenced and maintained only in a state or federal court of competent subject matter jurisdiction situated or located in the City of Lynchburg, Virginia, United States and the applicable appellate courts therefrom. YOU AND Salmon Upstream BOTH CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF AND VENUE IN ANY SUCH COURT AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY OBJECTION (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY OBJECTION BASED ON INCONVENIENT FORUM) WHICH YOU OR WE MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO VENUE IN ANY SUCH COURT.
15.5. Service of Process. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if your Account Information does not contain your current and accurate physical address (or if we are unable, after reasonable efforts, to effect service of process on you at such physical address), you hereby irrevocably agree to accept service of process by any means of communication associated with your User Account or through any contact information in your Account Information, including without limitation, service by U.S. mail, e-mail, SMS, push notifications, or alerts displayed or sent to you through the DeltaSport Platform, or social media messages, posts, or tweets, and you waive any objections to service of process by such methods.
15.6. Time Period for Bringing Claims. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: YOU MUST COMMENCE OR FILE ANY CLAIM OR ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO (A) THIS AGREEMENT, (B) THE DELTASPORT PLATFORM, the DeltaSport Materials, OR ANY OF THE DELTASPORT SERVICES (OR THE USE OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING BY YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON), (C) THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE BY US OF ANY OF OUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR (D) ACTUAL OR ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT BY ANY OF THE DELTASPORT PARTIES, the DeltaSport Materials, OR THE DELTASPORT SERVICES OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO COMMENCE, file, or maintain ANY SUCH CLAIM OR ACTION UNDER ANY LONGER STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS.
15.7. Waiver of Jury Trial. You and we desire to avoid the additional time and expense related to a jury trial of any disputes arising under this Agreement. THEREFORE, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED: YOU AND WE IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE and covenant they you and Salmon Upstream will not assert (whether as plaintiff, defendant, or otherwise) any right to trial by jury in any legal action, proceeding, cause of action, claim, or COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED IN TORT, BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR otherwise) arising in whole or in part under, or in connection with, (A) THIS AGREEMENT, (B) THE DELTASPORT PLATFORM, the DeltaSport Materials, OR ANY OF THE DELTASPORT SERVICES (OR THE USE OF ANY OF THE FOREGOING BY YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON), (C) THE PERFORMANCE OR NON-PERFORMANCE BY US OF ANY OF OUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR (D) ACTUAL OR ALLEGED INFRINGEMENT BY ANY OF THE DELTASPORT PARTIES, the DeltaSport Materials, OR THE DELTASPORT SERVICES OF ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT YOU OR SALMON UPSTREAM MAY FILE A COPY OF THIS PARAGRAPH WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE KNOWING, VOLUNTARY, AND BARGAINED-FOR AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND SALMON UPSTREAM. You and we FURTHER AGREE TO IRREVOCABLY WAIVE the RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUCH ACTION AND ANY SUCH ACTION WILL INSTEAD BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.
