CONTENT

It is important that you understand your rights and responsibilities with regard to the content on our Services, including any content you provide, share or post. You are expressly prohibited from posting inappropriate content.

While using our Services, you will have access to: (i) content that you upload, display, share or provide while using our Services, even if suggested by our Services ("Your Content"); (ii) content that other users upload, display, share or provide while using our Services ("Member Content"); and (iii) content that Azar provides on and through our Services ("Our Content"). In this agreement, "content" includes, without limitation, all text, images, video, audio, or other material on our Services, including information on users' profiles and in direct messages between users.

For additional information on how we moderate content, please see our Safety page for more details. For additional information on how recommended profiles are ordered, please see our FAQ on automated decision making.

3a. YOUR CONTENT

You are responsible for Your Content. Don't share anything that you wouldn't want others to see, that would violate this Agreement, or that may expose you or us to legal liability.

You are solely responsible and liable for Your Content, and, therefore, you agree to indemnify, defend, release, and hold us harmless from any claims made in connection with Your Content.

You represent and warrant to us that the information you provide to us or any other user is accurate, including any information submitted through any other third-party sources (if applicable), and that you will update your account information as necessary to ensure its accuracy.

The content included on your individual profile should be relevant to the intended use of our Services. You may not share any Prohibited Content, and your content must further comply with the Community Guidelines (Azar Community Guidelines, Azar Live Community Guidelines

, where applicable). You may not display any personal contact, banking information, or peer-to-peer payment information, whether in relation to you or any other person (for example, names, home addresses or postcodes, telephone numbers, email addresses, URLs, credit/debit card, peer-to-peer payment user name, or other banking details). IF YOU CHOOSE TO REVEAL ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOURSELF TO OTHER USERS, YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK. WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE YOU TO USE CAUTION IN DISCLOSING ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION ONLINE.

Your individual profile will be visible to other people around the world, so be sure that you are comfortable sharing Your Content before you share. You acknowledge and agree that Your Content may be viewed by other users, and, notwithstanding these Terms, other users may share Your Content with third parties. By sharing and/or streaming Your Content, you represent and warrant to us that you have all necessary rights and licenses to do so and automatically grant us a license to use Your Content as provided under Section 7 below.

Furthermore, your individual profile may be visible on some of our other services in certain circumstances, and thus available for users of such affiliated services to view. For more information on your profile visibility and associated settings, please go to this FAQ.

We may provide tools and features to enhance individual expression through Your Content and Member Content (described in Section 3b), and we’re constantly developing new technologies to improve our Services. Certain tools or features may allow you to generate or enhance content based on Your Content. This is still Your Content, and you are responsible for it and its accuracy, as well as your use of it on our Services and any and all decisions made, actions taken, and failures to take action based on Your Content. Be careful in choosing and sharing Your Content.

You understand and agree that we may monitor or review Your Content, and we have the right to remove, delete, edit, limit, or block or prevent access to any of Your Content at any time at our sole discretion. Furthermore, you understand and agree that we have no obligation to display or review Your Content.

3b. MEMBER CONTENT

While you will have access to Member Content, it is not yours and you may not copy or use Member Content for any purpose except as contemplated by these Terms.

Other users will also share content on our Services. Member Content belongs to the user who shared and/or streamed the content and is stored on our servers and displayed at the direction of that user.

You should always carefully review and independently verify Member Content for accuracy. Other users may use tools to generate or enhance content based on the Member Content they provide. Member Content may include biased, incorrect, harmful, offensive, or misleading information. Other users are responsible for their Member Content, as well as any and all decisions made, actions taken, and failures to take action based on their use of Member Content.

You do not have any rights in relation to Member Content, and, unless expressly authorized by Azar, you may only use Member Content to the extent that your use is consistent with our Services' purpose of facilitating messaging and video chatting between members of our Service. You may not copy the Member Content or use Member Content for any other purpose, whether commercial or otherwise, to spam, to critique, to harass, or to make unlawful threats. We reserve the right to terminate your account if you misuse Member Content.

3c. OUR CONTENT

Azar owns or licenses all other content on our Services.

Any other text, content, graphics, user interfaces, trademarks, logos, sounds, artwork, images, and other intellectual property appearing on our Services is owned, controlled or licensed by us and protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property law rights. All rights, title, and interest in and to Our Content remains with us at all times.

We grant you a limited license to access and use Our Content as provided under Section 6 below, and we reserve all other rights.

INAPPROPRIATE CONTENT AND MISCONDUCT; REPORTING

Azar does not tolerate inappropriate content or behavior on our Services.

We are committed to maintaining a positive and respectful community, and we do not tolerate any inappropriate content or misconduct, whether on or off of the Services (including, but not limited to, on services operated by our affiliates). We encourage you to report any inappropriate Member Content or misconduct by other users. You can report a user directly through by clicking the Shield icon on a user's profile or in the messaging experience. You may also contact Customer Support.

As set forth in our Privacy Policy, we may share data between our affiliates for the safety and security of our users and may take necessary actions if we believe you have violated these Terms, including banning you from our Services and/or our affiliates’ services (such as Tinder, Hinge, Plenty of Fish, OkCupid, Match, Meetic, BlackPeopleMeet, LoveScout24, OurTime, and Pairs; for more details, please see our Safety page), and/or preventing you from creating new accounts. You understand and agree that we may not share information with you regarding your account if doing so would potentially impair the safety or privacy of our other users.

Member Content is subject to the terms and conditions of Sections 512(c) and/or 512(d) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act 1998. To submit a complaint regarding Member Content that may constitute intellectual property infringement, see Section 12 (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) below.

PRIVACY

Privacy is important to us. We have a separate policy about it that you should read.

For information about how Azar and its affiliates collect, use, and share your personal data, please read our Privacy Policy. By using our Services, you agree that we may use your personal data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

RIGHTS YOU ARE GRANTED BY AZAR

Azar grants you the right to use and enjoy our Services, subject to these Terms.

For as long as you comply with these Terms, Azar grants you a personal, worldwide, royalty-free, non-assignable, non-exclusive, revocable, and non-sublicensable license to access and use our Services for purposes as intended by Azar and permitted by these Terms and applicable laws. This license and any authorization to access the Service are automatically revoked in the event that you fail to comply with these Terms.

RIGHTS YOU GRANT AZAR

You own all of the content you provide to Azar, but you also grant us the right to use Your Content as provided in this Agreement.

By creating an account, you grant to Azar a worldwide, perpetual, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free right and license to host, store, use, copy, display, reproduce, adapt, edit, publish, translate, modify, reformat, incorporate into other works, advertise, distribute and otherwise make available to the general public Your Content, including any information you authorize us to access from any other third-party sources (if applicable), in whole or in part, and in any way and in any format or medium currently known or developed in the future. Azar's license to Your Content shall be non-exclusive, except that Azar's license shall be exclusive with respect to derivative works created through use of our Services. For example, Azar would have an exclusive license to screenshots of our Services that include Your Content.

In addition, so that Azar can prevent the use of Your Content outside of our Services, you authorize Azar to act on your behalf with respect to infringing uses of Your Content taken from our Services by other users or third parties. This expressly includes the authority, but not the obligation, to send notices pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) (i.e., DMCA Takedown Notices) on your behalf if Your Content is taken and used by third parties outside of our Services. Azar is not obligated to take any action with regard to use of Your Content by other users or third parties. Azar's license to Your Content is subject to your rights under applicable law (for example, laws regarding personal data protection to the extent the content contains personal information as defined by those laws).

In consideration for Azar allowing you to use our Services, you agree that we, our affiliates, and our third-party partners may place advertising on our Services. By submitting suggestions or feedback to Azar regarding our Services, you agree that Azar may use and share such feedback for any purpose without compensating you.

You agree that Azar may access, preserve, and disclose your account information, including Your Content, if required to do so by law or upon a good faith belief that such access, preservation, or disclosure is reasonably necessary to: (i) comply with legal process; (ii) enforce these Terms; (iii) respond to claims that any content violates the rights of third parties; (iv) respond to your requests for customer service; (v) protect the rights, property or personal safety of the Company or any other person, or (vi) to investigate, prevent, or take other action regarding illegal activity, suspected fraud or other wrongdoing.

PURCHASES AND AUTOMATICALLY RENEWING SUBSCRIPTIONS

You will have the opportunity to purchase products and services from Azar. If you purchase a subscription, it will automatically renew - and you will be charged - until you cancel.

Azar may offer products and services for purchase through iTunes, Google Play, or other external services authorized by Azar (each, an "External Service," and any purchases made thereon, an "External Service Purchase"). Azar may also offer products and services for purchase via credit card or other payment processors on the Website or inside the App ("Internal Purchases"). If you purchase a subscription, it will automatically renew until you cancel, in accordance with the terms disclosed to you at the time of purchase, as further described below. If you cancel your subscription, you will continue to have access to your subscription benefits until the end of your subscription period, at which point it will expire.

Because our Services may be utilized without a subscription, canceling your subscription does not remove your profile from our Services. If you wish to fully terminate your account, you must terminate your account as set forth in Section 9.

Azar operates a global business, and our pricing varies based on a number of factors. We frequently offer promotional rates - which can vary based on region, length of subscription, bundle size, past purchases, account activity and more. We also regularly test new features and payment options. If you do not timely cancel your subscription, your subscription will be renewed at the full price as indicated when the purchase was made, without any additional action by you, and you authorize us to charge your payment method for these amounts. To the extent permissible by law, we reserve the right, including without prior notice, to limit the available quantity of or discontinue making available any product, feature, service or other offering; to impose conditions on the honoring of any coupon, discount, offer or other promotion; to bar any user from making any transaction; and to refuse to provide any user with any product, service or other offering.

8a. EXTERNAL SERVICE PURCHASES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS

External Service Purchases, including subscriptions, may be processed through the External Service, in which case those purchases must be managed through your External Service Account. Subscriptions automatically renew until you cancel.

When making a purchase on the Service, you may have the option to pay through an External Service, such as with your Apple ID or Google Play account ("your External Service Account"), and your External Service Account will be charged for the purchase in accordance with the terms disclosed to you at the time of purchase and the general terms applicable to your External Service Account. Some External Services may charge you sales tax, depending on where you live, which may change from time to time.

If your External Service Purchase includes an automatically renewing subscription, your External Service Account will continue to be periodically charged for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, the subscription will automatically continue for the price and time period you agreed to when subscribing. If you received a discounted promotional offer, your price may go up per the terms of that offer following the initial subscription period for any subsequent renewal period.

To cancel a subscription: If you do not want your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, you must log in to your External Service Account and follow instructions to manage or cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the App from your device. For example, if you subscribed using your Apple ID, cancellation is handled by Apple, not Azar. To cancel a purchase made with your Apple ID, go to Settings within the app, and follow the instructions to cancel. You can also request assistance at Apple Support.

Similarly, if you subscribed on Google Play, cancellation is handled by Google. To cancel a purchase made through Google Play, launch the Google Play app on your mobile device and navigate to Settings. You can also request assistance at Google Play. If you cancel a subscription, you may continue to use the canceled service until the end of your then-current subscription term. The subscription will not be renewed when your then-current term expires.

If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your External Service Account, Azar may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion, on the basis that you have determined that you do not want an Azar subscription. In the event that your chargeback or other payment reversal is overturned, please contact Customer Care. Azar will retain all funds charged to your External Service Account until you cancel your subscription through your External Service Account. Certain users may be entitled to request a refund. See Section 8d below for more information.

8b. INTERNAL PURCHASES AND SUBSCRIPTIONS

Internal Purchases, including subscriptions, are processed using the Payment Method you provide on the Website or App. Subscriptions automatically renew until you cancel.

If you make an Internal Purchase, you agree to pay the prices displayed to you for the Services you've selected as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments (and as may change from time to time), and you authorize Azar to charge the payment method you provide (your "Payment Method"). Azar may correct any billing errors or mistakes even if we have already requested or received payment. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your Payment Method, Azar may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion, on the basis that you have determined that you do not want an Azar subscription. In the event that your chargeback or other payment reversal is overturned, please contact Customer Care.

If your Internal Purchase includes an automatically renewing subscription, your Payment Method will continue to be periodically charged for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for the price and time period you agreed to when subscribing, until you cancel.

To cancel a subscription, log in to the App and go to My Profile Setting section. If you cancel a subscription, you may continue to use the cancelled service until the end of your then-current subscription term. The subscription will not be renewed when your then-current term expires.

In addition, only insofar applicable to markets where credit card payments are offered: you authorize us to obtain updated or replacement expiration dates and card numbers for your credit or debit card as provided by your credit or debit card issuer. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer, or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If you reside outside of the Republic of Korea, you agree that your payment to Azar may be made through MTCH Technology Services Limited. Certain users may be entitled to request a refund. See Section 8d below for more information.

8c. IN-APP ITEMS

Gems and In-App items are non-refundable and subject to certain conditions.

From time to time, you may have the opportunity to purchase a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use or access special limited-use features including but not limited to credits (“Gems”) redeemable on in-app items, such as Gender Filter, Country Filter, or In-App Gifts ("In-App Item(s)") from Azar. You may only purchase In-App Items from us or our authorized partners through our Services.

In-App Items represent a limited license right governed by this Agreement, and, except as otherwise prohibited by applicable law, no title or ownership in or to In-App Items is being transferred or assigned to you. This Agreement should not be construed as a sale of any rights in In-App Items.

Any In-App Item balance shown in your account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value, but instead constitutes a measurement of the extent of your license. Unless otherwise prescribed under applicable laws, Gems will expire five (5) years after the date of purchase. However, Gems acquired through methods other than a purchase (e.g. free Gems gifted to a user by Azar) shall be subject to expiry and usage conditions as solely determined by Azar. In-App Items do not incur fees for non-use; however, the license granted to you in In-App Items will terminate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, on the earlier of when Azar ceases providing our Services, or your account is otherwise closed or terminated.

Azar, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to charge fees for the right to access or use In-App Items and/or may distribute In-App Items with or without charge. Azar may manage, regulate, control, modify, or eliminate In-App Items at any time, including taking actions that may impact the perceived value or purchase price, if applicable, of any In-App Items. Azar shall have no liability to you or any third party in the event that Azar exercises any such rights. The transfer of In-App Items is prohibited, and you shall not sell, redeem, or otherwise transfer In-App Items to any person or entity. In-App Items may only be redeemed through our Services.

ALL PURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS OF IN-APP ITEMS MADE THROUGH OUR SERVICES ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT AZAR IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED IN-APP ITEMS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED, WHETHER SUCH CLOSURE WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY.

8d. REFUNDS

Generally, all purchases are nonrefundable. Special terms for refunds apply in the EU, EEA, UK, Switzerland and Korea.

Generally, all purchases are final and nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods, except if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds.

For subscribers residing in the EU, EEA, UK, and Switzerland:

In accordance with local law, you are entitled to a full refund during the 14 days after the subscription begins. Please note that this 14-day period commences when the subscription starts.

For subscribers residing in Germany:

You may terminate your subscription after it has renewed with a notice period of one month. Your right to terminate for cause remains unaffected.

For subscribers and purchasers of In-App Items residing in the Republic of Korea:

In accordance with local law, you are entitled to a full refund of your subscription and/or unused In-App Items during the 7 days following the purchase; provided that if the subscription period commenced or you have already used any In-App Items, the costs for such used In-App Items or subscription period may be deducted from the amount that is refunded to you. Please note that this 7-day period commences upon the purchase.

If any of the above apply to you and you subscribed using your Apple ID, your refund requests are handled by Apple, not Apple. To request a refund, please contact your External Service directly; for example using your Apple device, go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > [click on your Apple ID] > View Apple ID > Purchase History. Find the transaction and select "Report a Problem." You can also request a refund at Apple Support. For any other purchase, please contact Azar Customer Service with your order number (see your confirmation email) by mailing or delivering a signed and dated notice which states that you, the buyer, are canceling this Agreement, or words of similar effect. Please also include the email address or telephone number associated with your account along with your order number. This notice shall be sent to:

ACCOUNT TERMINATION

If you no longer wish to use our Services, or if we terminate your account for any reason, here's what you need to know.

You can delete your account at any time by logging into the Website or App, going to “Account settings” on my profile Settings, clicking "Delete Account", and following the instructions to complete the deletion process. However, you will need to cancel / manage any External Service Purchases through your External Service Account (e.g., iTunes, Google Play) to avoid additional billing.

Azar reserves the right to investigate and, if appropriate, suspend or terminate your account without a refund if Azar believes that you have violated these Terms, misused our Services, or behaved in a way that Azar regards as inappropriate or unlawful, on or off our Services. We reserve the right to make use of any personal, technological, legal, or other means available to enforce the Terms, at any time without liability and without the obligation to give you prior notice, including, but not limited to, preventing you from accessing the Services.

If your account is terminated by you or by Azar for any reason, these Terms continue and remain enforceable between you and Azar, and you will not be entitled to any refund for purchases made. Your information will be maintained and deleted in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Azar's liability is limited to the maximum extent allowed by applicable law.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL AZAR, ITS AFFILIATES, EMPLOYEES, LICENSORS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, FIXED, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFITS, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM: (I) YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE THE SERVICES, (II) THE CONDUCT OR CONTENT OF ANY USERS OR THIRD PARTIES ON OR THROUGH ANY OF OUR AFFILIATES’ SERVICES OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES; OR (III) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, USE, OR ALTERATION OF YOUR CONTENT, EVEN IF AZAR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL AZAR'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICES EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) $100 USD OR (B) THE AMOUNT PAID, IF ANY, BY YOU TO AZAR FOR THE SERVICES DURING THE TWENTY-FOUR (24) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST FILE A LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR ANY OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING AGAINST AZAR, WHETHER STATUTORY, IN LAW OR IN EQUITY, IN ANY TRIBUNAL.

THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 14 SHALL APPLY EVEN IF YOUR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FAIL WITH RESPECT TO THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OR ALL OF THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION

In the unlikely event that we have a legal dispute, here is how the Parties agree to proceed, except where prohibited by applicable law.

Any Subsection in this Dispute Resolution Section that is prohibited by law shall not apply to the users residing in that jurisdiction, including Subsections 15b, 15c, 15d, and 15e, which shall not apply to users residing within the EU, EEA, UK, or Switzerland. The online dispute settlement platform of the European Commission is available at Online Dispute Resolution | European Commission. Azar does not take part in dispute settlement procedures in front of a consumer arbitration entity for users residing in the EU, EEA, UK, or Switzerland.

15a. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS

If you are dissatisfied with our Services for any reason, please contact Azar Customer Service first so we can try to resolve your concerns without the need of outside assistance. If you choose to pursue a dispute, claim or controversy against Azar, these terms will apply. For purposes of this Dispute Resolution Process and Arbitration Procedures set forth in Section 15, “Azar” shall include our affiliates, employees, licensors, and service providers.

Azar values its relationship with you and appreciates the mutual benefit realized from informally resolving Disputes. “Dispute” is any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Azar that arises from or related in any way to this Agreement (including any alleged breach of this Agreement), the Service, or our relationship with you. “Dispute” as used in this Agreement shall have the broadest possible meaning and include claims that arose before the existence of this or any prior Agreement and claims that arise during the term of this Agreement or after the termination of this Agreement (unless this Agreement is superseded by a subsequent Agreement entered into by you and Azar). If you have a Dispute with Azar (“Your Dispute”), before formally pursuing Your Dispute in arbitration or small claims court, you agree to first send a detailed notice (“Notice”) to CT Corporation, 1209 Orange Street, City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, Delaware 19801, USA. However, if Your Dispute includes individual claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment occurring in connection with your use of the Services, then you are not required to send a Notice before pursuing your claims in accordance with Section 17. If Azar has a Dispute with you (“Azar’s Dispute"), Azar agrees to first send a Notice to you at your most recent email address on file with us, or if no email address is on file, other contact information associated with your account. Your Notice must contain all of the following information: (1) your full name; (2) information that enables Azar to identify your account, including a picture or screenshot of your profile, your address, mobile phone number, email address, and date of birth you used to register your account if any; and (3) a detailed description of your Dispute, including the nature and factual basis of your claim(s) and the relief you are seeking with a corresponding calculation of your alleged damages (if any). You must personally sign this Notice for it to be effective. Azar’s Dispute Notice must likewise set forth a detailed description of Azar’s Dispute, which shall include the nature and factual basis of its claim(s) and the relief it is seeking, with a corresponding calculation of our damages (if any). You and Azar agree to then negotiate in good faith in an effort to resolve the Dispute. As part of these good faith negotiations, Azar may request a telephone conference with you to discuss Your Dispute, and you agree to personally participate, with your attorney if you’re represented by counsel. Likewise, you may request a telephone conference to discuss Azar’s Dispute with you, and Azar agrees to have one representative participate. (For the avoidance of doubt, Azar’s termination of your account, as set forth in Section 4 above, is not Azar’s Dispute with you.) This informal process should lead to a resolution of the Dispute. However, if the Dispute is not resolved within 60 days after receipt of a fully completed Notice and the Parties have not otherwise mutually agreed to an extension of this informal dispute resolution time period, you or Azar may initiate an arbitration (subject to a Party’s right to elect small claims court as provided below).

Completion of this informal dispute resolution is a condition precedent to filing any demand for arbitration or small claims court action (except for individual claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment occurring in connection with your use of the Services). Failure to do so is a breach of this Agreement. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines will be tolled while you and Azar engage in this informal dispute resolution process. Unless prohibited by applicable law, the arbitration provider, National Arbitration and Mediation (“NAM”), shall not accept or administer any demand for arbitration and shall administratively close any arbitration unless the Party bringing such demand for arbitration can certify in writing that the terms and conditions of this informal dispute resolution process were fully satisfied. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enforce this provision and to enjoin any arbitration proceeding or small claims court action accordingly.

All offers, promises, conduct, and statements made in the course of the informal dispute resolution process by any party, its agents, employees, and attorneys are confidential and not admissible for any purpose in any subsequent proceeding (except to the extent required to certify in writing that the Party met the requirements of this informal dispute resolution process before commencing a NAM arbitration), provided that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable.

15b. INDIVIDUAL RELIEF: CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, YOU AND AZAR EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES IN COURT IN FAVOR OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR FOR INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT OR SEXUAL HARASSMENT OCCURING IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, AS PROVIDED HEREIN). YOU AND AZAR EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO FILE OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER OR OTHERWISE TO SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING ANY CURRENTLY PENDING ACTIONS AGAINST AZAR. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWABLE BY LAW, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS. THE ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD THE SAME RELIEF AVAILABLE IN COURT PROVIDED THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY ONLY AWARD FINAL RELIEF (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE OR DECLARATORY RELIEF) IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE FINAL RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD FINAL RELIEF FOR, AGAINST, OR ON BEHALF OF ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS. IF A COURT DETERMINES THAT ANY OF THESE PROHIBITIONS IN THIS PARAGRAPH ARE UNENFORCEABLE AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF (SUCH AS A REQUEST FOR PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF), AND ALL APPEALS OF THAT DECISION ARE AFFIRMED AND SUCH DECISION BECOMES FINAL, THEN YOU AND AZAR AGREE THAT THAT PARTICULAR CLAIM OR REQUEST FOR RELIEF SHALL PROCEED IN COURT BUT SHALL BE STAYED PENDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION OF THE REMAINING CLAIMS FOR RELIEF THAT YOU HAVE BROUGHT. IF THIS SPECIFIC PARAGRAPH IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION (EXCEPT FOR THE JURY TRIAL WAIVER AND THE INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS) SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

15c. DISPUTE RESOLUTION THROUGH ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT

Any Dispute (that is not resolved informally by Azar Customer Service or as provided under subsection 15a above) shall be exclusively resolved through BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION except as specifically provided otherwise in this Dispute Resolution Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Azar may elect to have an individual claim heard in small claims court, and individual claims of sexual assault or sexual harassment occurring in connection with your use of the Services may be brought in accordance with Section 17. If the request to proceed in small claims court is made after an arbitration has been initiated but before an arbitrator has been appointed, such arbitration shall be administratively closed by the arbitration provider (e.g., NAM). Any controversy over the small claims court’s jurisdiction shall be exclusively determined by such small claims court. No determinations made by a small claims court shall have preclusive effect in any proceeding involving Azar and anyone other than you. In the event such small claims court specifically determines that it is without jurisdiction to hear the Dispute, you and Azar shall arbitrate the Dispute under the terms of this Agreement. All other issues (except as otherwise provided herein) are exclusively for the Arbitrator to decide, including but not limited to scope and enforceability of this Dispute Resolution Section and including questions of arbitrability, any request to proceed in small claims court that is made after an arbitrator has been appointed, and any dispute as to whether either Party is in breach or default of the Dispute Resolution Section or has explicitly or implicitly waived the right to arbitrate. If you or Azar challenges the small claims court election in your Dispute, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the small claims court election is unenforceable, then such election shall be severed from this Agreement as to your Dispute. However, such court determination shall not be considered or deemed binding or have preclusive effect with respect to any proceeding involving Azar and anyone other than you.

Any court proceeding to enforce this Dispute Resolution Section 15, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration award, must be commenced in accordance with Section 16. In the event Dispute Resolution Section 15 is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Azar (except for small claims court actions) may be commenced only in the federal or state courts located in Dallas County, Texas. You hereby irrevocably consent to those courts’ exercise of personal jurisdiction over you for such purposes and waive any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.

15d. INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND MASS ARBITRATION PROTOCOLS

This subsection 15d applies to Disputes that are submitted to NAM after fully completing the informal dispute resolution process described in subsection 15a above and when no small claims court election is made by you or Azar. Any arbitration between you and Azar shall be administered by NAM in accordance with NAM’s operative Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (the “NAM Rules”) in effect at the time any demand for arbitration is filed with NAM, as modified by this Dispute Resolution Section 15. For a copy of the NAM Rules, please visit Rules, Fees & Forms - National Arbitration and Mediation or contact NAM at NAM’s National Processing Center at 990 Stewart Avenue, 1st Floor, Garden City, NY 11530 or at email address at commercial@namadr.com. If NAM is unable or unwilling to perform its duties under this Agreement, the Parties shall mutually agree on an alternative administrator that will replace NAM and assume NAM’s role consistent with this Agreement and this Agreement will govern to the extent it conflicts with the arbitration provider’s rules. If the Parties are unable to agree, they will petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration provider who will assume NAM’s duties under this Agreement and this Agreement will govern to the extent it conflicts with the arbitration provider’s rules.

The Parties agree that the following procedures will apply to any Arbitrations initiated under this Dispute Resolution Section (subject to either Party’s small claims court election as described above):

Commencing an Arbitration – To initiate an arbitration, you or Azar shall send to NAM a demand for arbitration (“Demand for Arbitration”) that describes the claim(s) and request for relief in detail, consistent with the requirements in this Agreement and NAM Rules. If you send a Demand for Arbitration, you shall also send it to Azar at CT Corporation, 1209 Orange Street, City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, Delaware 19801, USA, within 7 days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration to NAM. If Azar sends a Demand for Arbitration, we will also send it to your mailing address on file with us within the same 7-day period. If your mailing address is unavailable, we will send it to your email address on file, or if no email address is on file, other contact information associated with your account. The arbitration provider shall not accept or administer any demand for arbitration and shall administratively close any such demand for arbitration that fails to certify in writing that the Party meets the requirements of Dispute Resolution Section 15 or if either Party elects small claims court as set forth above.
Fees – The payment of NAM fees shall be governed by the NAM Rules, except to the extent that the case is a part of a Mass Filing (as defined below) or the NAM fees and costs (including Arbitrator fees) paid by either Party are reallocated upon order of the Arbitrator following a determination that (a) either Party breached Section 15 of this Agreement, (b) such reallocation is called for under this Agreement, or (c) reallocation is otherwise permitted under applicable law. Upon a showing to Azar of your financial hardship we will consider a good faith request made by you to pay your portion of the applicable consumer portion of the filing fee. Azar is committed to ensuring that arbitration costs to consumers do not serve as a barrier to the adjudication of disputes. If Azar initiates an arbitration against you, we shall pay all NAM fees.
The Arbitrator – The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator (the “Claim Arbitrator”), as assisted by any Process Arbitrator appointed under NAM Rules. (The term “Arbitrator” applies to both the Claim Arbitrator and the Process Arbitrator). If a hearing is elected by either Party, the Arbitrator shall be in or close to the location in which you reside. The Arbitrator is bound by and shall adhere to this Agreement. In the event NAM Rules conflict with this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. If the Arbitrator determines that strict application of any term of Section 15 of this Agreement (except for the small claims election, which shall be determined by the small claims court) would result in a fundamentally unfair arbitration (the “Unfair Term”), then the Arbitrator shall have authority to modify the Unfair Term to the extent necessary to ensure a fundamentally fair arbitration that is consistent with the Terms of Service (the “Modified Term”). In determining the substance of a Modified Term, the Arbitrator shall select a term that comes closest to expressing the intention of the Unfair Term.
Dispositive Motions – The Parties agree that the Claim Arbitrator shall have the authority to consider dispositive motions without an oral evidentiary hearing. Dispositive motions may be requested under the following circumstances: (a) within 30 days after the Claim Arbitrator’s appointment, a Party may request to file a dispositive motion based upon the pleadings; and (b) no later than 30 days prior to the evidentiary hearing, a Party may request to file a dispositive motion for summary judgment based upon the Parties’ pleadings and the evidence submitted.
Discovery –Each Party may (a) serve up to five requests for relevant, non-privileged documents from the other Party; and (b) request that the other Party provide verified responses to no more than 5 relevant interrogatories (including subparts). Unless both Parties agree otherwise, no other forms of discovery (including depositions) may be utilized. Any such discovery requests must be served on the other Party within 21 days after the Claim Arbitrator’s appointment. The responding Party shall provide the requesting Party with all responsive, non-privileged documents, responses signed by the Party themselves to the requested interrogatories, and/or any objections to the requests within 30 days after receipt of the requests, or, in the event of an objection to any discovery request, 30 days after the Claim Arbitrator resolves the dispute. In the event either Party requests that the Claim Arbitrator consider a dispositive motion on the pleadings, such written discovery response deadlines shall be extended until 30 days following the Claim Arbitrator’s final decision on such dispositive motion. If after meeting and conferring the Parties cannot agree on a dispute about discovery or a request for extension, that matter shall be submitted promptly to the Claim Arbitrator for resolution. In ruling on any discovery matter, the Claim Arbitrator shall take into consideration the nature, amount, and scope of the underlying arbitration claim, the cost and other effort that would be involved in providing the requested discovery, the case schedule, and the extent to which the requested discovery is truly necessary for the adequate preparation of a claim or defense, and NAM’s goal of efficient and economical resolutions. The burden of establishing good cause for any additional discovery is on the moving Party.
Confidentiality – Upon either Party’s request, the Arbitrator will issue an order requiring that confidential information of either Party disclosed during the arbitration (whether in documents or orally) may not be used or disclosed except in connection with the arbitration or a proceeding to enforce the arbitration award and that any permitted court filing of confidential information must be done under seal.
Arbitration Hearing – You and Azar are entitled to a fair evidentiary hearing (i.e. trial) before the Claim Arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings are usually simpler, less costly, and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. The Parties agree to waive all oral hearings and instead submit all disputes to the Claim Arbitrator for an award based on written submissions and other evidence as the Parties may agree, unless a Party requests an oral hearing at least within 10 days after the Respondent files a response. If an oral evidentiary hearing is requested, both Parties must be personally present at the hearing, regardless of whether either Party has retained counsel. Both Parties must personally attend the hearing. Either Party’s failure to personally attend the hearing, without a continuance ordered by the Claim Arbitrator for good cause, will result in a default judgment taken against that Party.
Arbitration Award – Regardless of the format of the arbitration, the Claim Arbitrator shall provide a reasoned decision, in writing within 30 days after the hearing or, if no hearing is held, within 30 days after any rebuttal or supplemental statements are due. The decision must clearly specify the relief, if any, awarded and contain a brief statement of the reasons for the award. The arbitration award is binding only between you and Azar and will not have any preclusive effect in another arbitration or proceeding that involves a different Party. The Claim Arbitrator may, however, choose to consider rulings from other arbitrations involving a different Party. The Arbitrator may award fees and costs as provided by the NAM Rules or to the extent such fees and costs could be awarded in court. This includes but is not limited to the ability of the Arbitrator to award fees and costs if the Arbitrator determines that a claim or defense is frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose, for the purpose of harassment, or in bad faith.
Offer of Settlement – The Respondent may, but is not obligated to, make a written settlement offer to the opposing Party any time before the evidentiary hearing or, if a dispositive motion is permitted, prior to the dispositive motion being granted. The amount or terms of any settlement offer may not be disclosed to the Claim Arbitrator until after the Claim Arbitrator issues an award on the claim. If the award is issued in the opposing Party’s favor and is less than the Respondent’s settlement offer or if the award is in the Respondent’s favor, the opposing Party must pay the Respondent’s costs incurred after the offer was made, including any attorney’s fees. If any applicable statute or case law prohibits the flipping of costs incurred in the arbitration, then the offer in this provision shall serve to cease the accumulation of any costs that claimant may be entitled to for the cause of action under which it is suing.
Mass Filing – If, at any time, 25 or more similar demands for arbitration are asserted against Azar or related parties by the same or coordinated counsel or entities (“Mass Filing”), consistent with the definition and criteria of Mass Filings set forth in the NAM’s Mass Filing Supplemental Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (“NAM’s Mass Filing Rules”, available at https://www.namadr.com/resources/rules-fees-forms/), the additional protocols set forth below shall apply.

If you or your counsel file a Demand for Arbitration that fits within the definition of Mass Filing referred to above, then you agree that your Demand for Arbitration shall be subject to the additional protocols set forth in this Mass Filing subsection. You also acknowledge that the adjudication of your Dispute might be delayed and that any applicable statute of limitations shall be tolled from the time at which the first cases are chosen to proceed until your case is chosen for a bellwether proceeding.
NAM’s Mass Filing Rules shall apply if your Dispute is deemed by NAM, in its sole discretion pursuant to its Rules and this Dispute Resolution Section, to be part of a Mass Filing. Such election for NAM’s Mass Filing Rules and related fee schedule must be made by either you or Azar in writing and submitted to NAM and all Parties.

Bellwether Proceedings. Bellwether proceedings are encouraged by courts and arbitration administrators when there are multiple disputes involving similar claims against the same or related parties. For the first set of bellwether proceedings, counsel for the Mass Filings claimants (including you) and counsel for Azar shall each select 15 Demands for Arbitration (30 total) to proceed, and no more than those 30 arbitrations shall be filed, processed, adjudicated, or pending at such time, with each of the 30 individual arbitrations presided over by a different Claim Arbitrator. During this time, no other Demands for Arbitration that are part of the Mass Filings may be filed, processed, adjudicated, or pending.

If the Parties are unable to resolve the remaining Demands for Arbitration after the first set of bellwether proceedings are arbitrated or otherwise resolved, then the Parties will continue to engage in the bellwether proceedings for an additional four (4) rounds, increasing the amount of Demands for Arbitration selected by counsel for each Party by five (5) with each round, so that during the second round, counsel for the Claimants and counsel for Azar shall each select an additional 20 Demands for Arbitration (40 total), in the third round, 25 each (50 total), in the fourth round, 30 each (60 total), and in the fifth round 35 each (70 total). Within each round, each of the individual arbitrations is to be presided over by a different Claim Arbitrator, and during these additional rounds of the bellwether proceedings, no other Demands for Arbitration that are part of the Mass Filings may be filed, processed, or adjudicated once selected by the Procedural Arbitrator. Following the first round of bellwether proceedings, but before the second round of bellwether proceedings, counsel for the Parties shall participate in a global mediation, before a retired federal or state-court judge (unless the Parties agree otherwise), with Azar to pay the mediator’s fees. Following the second, third, fourth, and fifth rounds of bellwether proceedings, counsel for both parties should discuss additional mediation and seek out opportunities to resolve the remaining Demands for Arbitration, but will only proceed with mediation upon consent of counsel for all Parties.

If the Parties are unable to resolve the remaining Demands for Arbitration after the fifth set of bellwether proceedings are arbitrated or otherwise resolved, and the Parties decide to not continue with additional rounds of bellwether proceedings, then counsel for the Claimants and counsel for Azar shall discuss with NAM a fair process for individually adjudicating the remaining Demands for Arbitration. Under this process, the Procedural Arbitrator will make the final decision on the number of Demands for Arbitration that can proceed individually at any time, as well as a method for selecting which Demands for Arbitration will proceed, taking into account the number of individual arbitrations that counsel for Claimants and counsel for Azar are able to reasonably manage at the same time, as well as the number of individual arbitrations that NAM is able to administer. A Demand for Arbitration that was not included in the bellwethering process will only be deemed filed, processed, or adjudicated once selected by the Procedural Arbitrator. At any time after the first set of Demands for Arbitration are resolved (30 Demands for Arbitration total), the Parties may agree to forgo the bellwether proceedings for any additional Demands for Arbitration deemed to be part of the Mass Filings. Fees associated with a Demand for Arbitration included in the Mass Filings, including fees owed by Azar and the Claimants (including you), shall only be due after the Demand for Arbitration is chosen to proceed as part of a set of bellwether proceedings, or after being selected by the Procedural Arbitrator to proceed upon completion of the bellwether proceedings, and therefore properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication. The Parties are encouraged to meet and confer throughout this process regarding ways to streamline the proceedings, including discussion of potential ways to increase the number of Demands for Arbitration to be adjudicated in sets of staged bellwether proceedings. Either Party may negotiate with NAM as to reducing and deferring fees and streamlining procedures. If you are a Mass Filing claimant, any applicable statute of limitations (or other applicable limitations period) shall be tolled beginning when you initiate the informal dispute resolution process set forth in subsection 15a of the Agreement, and if the first Mass Filings’ Demands for Arbitration that are chosen for the initial set of bellwether proceedings have been filed, your claims will remain tolled until your Demand for Arbitration is either selected by counsel for the Parties in the bellwether proceedings or selected by the Procedural Arbitrator following completion of the bellwether proceedings. A court of competent jurisdiction located in a venue allowed under Section 17 of the Agreement shall have the power to enforce this subsection.

You and Azar agree that we each value the integrity and efficiency of the arbitration and small claims court process and wish to employ the process for the fair resolution of genuine and sincere disputes between us. You and Azar acknowledge and agree to act in good faith to ensure the fair resolution of genuine and sincere Disputes. The Parties further agree that application of these Mass Filings procedures have been reasonably designed to result in an efficient and fair adjudication of such cases.

15e. FUTURE CHANGES AND RETROACTIVE APPLICATION

This Dispute Resolution Section 15 applies to all Disputes between the Parties, including for any claims that accrued against you or Azar prior to the time of your consent to this Agreement and to any claims that accrue against you or Azar after your consent to this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you may elect to opt out of the retroactive application of this Dispute Resolution Section 15 as to claims that have accrued against you or against Azar prior to the time of your consent to this Agreement. You may opt out by sending us written notice, within 30 days of the time you consent to this Agreement, to the following email address: help@azarlive.com. Please do not direct any customer support inquiries to help@azarlive.com, as they will not be addressed; such inquiries should be directed to customer support. You must include information sufficient to identify your account(s), such as the email address or phone number associated with your account(s), and should include a statement that you are opting out of the retroactive application of this Dispute Resolution Section 15.

Azar Live (Live Streaming) Additional Terms

(APPLICABLE ONLY IN TERRITORIES WHERE AZAR LIVE IS OFFERED)

YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS AS A LIVE STREAMER

Live Streaming provides another layer of functionality--by live streaming you have additional rights, but those rights come with additional obligations.

In addition to all of your foregoing obligations, including but not limited to your responsibilities set forth in Section 2, you agree to the additional obligations set forth here to the extent that you live stream from your account on the Azar Live portion of the Service.

A. Users of the Azar Live portion of the Service (“Azar Live Users”) will have the ability to engage in the following services: host or participate in the creation, broadcasting, streaming, hosting, distribution, or sharing of content consisting of live audio-visual works (a “live stream” or engaging in “live streaming”). The Azar Live User hosting the live stream is a “streamer” and any other Live User watching and/or participating in the live stream is a “viewer”. As a streamer, you agree that you will be the sole producer of, and will remain solely responsible for, all of Your Content that you stream. You will decide, in your sole discretion, when and how frequently you stream, what quantity and quality your stream will contain, and the topics and other content discussed in your stream. You acknowledge and agree that you have all rights, licenses, approvals, etc. necessary to display Your Content. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in these Terms should be construed to create an employment, fiduciary, agency, or other relationship between you and us.

B. Streamers will have the ability to participate in our “Rewards Program,” which is the program by which streamers will receive rewards payment based on “stars” collected based on In-App Gifts that users/viewers purchase for such streamer by spending their Gems, related to the services above. For additional information about Rewards Program, please see our Azar Live Rewards Program Policy.

C. In the event that we determine to provide cash rewards based on “stars”, and unless we determine otherwise in our sole discretion, the following restrictions and our Azar Live Rewards Program Guide apply:

We will offer cash rewards through a third-party vendor; at present, the sole vendor providing these services is Payoneer. To receive a cash out, you must have a valid Payoneer account, including but not limited to agreeing to Payoneer’s Terms and Privacy Policy. You also understand and agree that Payoneer may charge a fee for such services, which is entirely outside of our control.
We may set additional limitations, requirements, and/or restrictions on rewarding or redeeming “stars” in our sole and absolute discretion, which may be communicated either directly to you and/or as part of the reward payment process.
We reserve the right to cease offering the reward payments or change the reward payment calculation basis at any time, in our sole and absolute discretion. This includes, without limitation, instances where we, acting reasonably, determine that you have violated this Agreement or where adjustments to the reward payment calculation basis are necessary.
We may choose not to disclose the reward payment rate or the reward payment calculation basis in our sole and absolute discretion.

E. When you are streaming content on the Service, you agree that you will only do so from your country of residence.

F. When you request cash rewards on the Service, you agree that you will only do so from your country of streaming, in accordance with this section. If you reside in and stream content from multiple regions, we reserve the right to determine the country from which you are eligible to request cash rewards, in our sole and absolute discretion.

G. If you delete your account, or your account is terminated for any reason, you will lose access to and thereby forfeit all rights in or to your In-App Items, etc. which include your “stars”.

H. In addition to the Prohibited Content set forth in Section 2, the following types of Content (and conduct) are prohibited on live streaming:

Content that contains nudity, is pornographic, is obscene, is intended to cause arousal in the viewers, or is sexually suggestive, which may include simulating sex acts, revealing or otherwise inappropriate clothing, moaning, erotic dances, or chatting to create sexual content;
Content that includes minors (even if they are your children or you have permission to include them in your stream), even if only in the background, and/or content that is designed to appeal primarily to minors;
Content that shows or promotes dangerous activities, dangerous challenges or “dares”, or that may cause the streamer or a user to endanger themselves.
Content filmed while driving or in a vehicle, unless the vehicle is clearly stopped or is being operated by another person;
Content that is protected by copyright, including but not limited to audiovisual works being displayed or performed in the background of a live stream--music or video that you have purchased or licensed in a commercial manner generally cannot be replayed by you on your live stream, and instead only music written or recorded by you and/or music for which you have all the rights necessary to share on Azar should be included in your live stream.
Asking for In-App Gifts in exchange for specific goods or services.

YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS AS A VIEWER OF LIVE STREAMING

When you are viewing live streaming, you have additional rights and obligations.

A. As a viewer of a live stream, you may watch and/or interact with the streamer and/or other viewers through a variety of features, including but not limited to utilizing the comment feature. By using the comment feature, or any other similar feature which allows you to interact with the live stream, you agree to comply with all of the various rights and obligations of a viewer.

B. As a viewer of a live stream, you may have the right to purchase In-App Items, such as “Gems”. Such Gems are In-App Items under Section 8c of these Terms, and may be used to provide In-App Gifts to show your appreciation for or celebrate a particular streamer--these In-App Gifts will play an animation in the stream to help you interact with the streamers. You cannot ask for specific goods or services in exchange for providing an In-App Gift to a streamer.

C. You understand and agree that we do not control the time, place, or manner in which streamers produce their streams, and as a result you may not see streams that you are expecting to see, and further we reserve the right to terminate streams or streamers that do not comply with these Terms. You understand and agree that you may see content that is offensive or upsetting to you. In the event that you believe such content has violated these Terms or the Community Guidelines (Azar Community Guidelines and/or Azar Live Community Guidelines, where applicable), please report the content to us. You can report a user directly through by clicking the Shield icon on a user's profile or in the messaging experience. You may also contact Customer Support.

YOUR TAX OBLIGATIONS AS A PARTICIPANT IN THE REWARDS PROGRAM

If you engage in live streaming and want to participate in the Rewards Program, you will have additional tax obligations.

In order to receive any payment under the Rewards Program, you must provide all information and documentation we or our vendors request to process payment. If you do not provide the information requested, you will not receive payment until such information and documentation is provided. Throughout your participation in the Rewards Program, you will also provide us with any information, forms, documents, or certifications that may be required for us to satisfy any information reporting or withholding tax obligations with respect to such payments.

For more information about tax obligations, you may refer to our FAQ on incurred taxes (If you are an Azar Live User having residence in Korea, please see this FAQ on Korea incurred tax.)
