Introduction and Overview

Welcome to WA Construct© ‘s (“WA Construct,” “us,” “we,” or “our”) website.

You have arrived at an online service location (e.g., web site or mobile application) that is owned and operated by WA Construct©, (“Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”) govern your use of any online service location (e.g., website or mobile app) that posts a link to these Terms and also applies to all features, widgets, plug-ins, applications, content, downloads, and other services (collectively, the “Site”) that are owned and controlled by us and that are available through or interact with a Site, and/or that post or link to these Terms, regardless of how you access or use the Site, whether via computer, mobile device, or otherwise. By using the Site, you acknowledge, accept, and agree to the Site’s Privacy Policy and consent to the collection and use of your data in accordance with the Privacy Policy.

It’s important that you read these Terms and Conditions in their entirety, but to help facilitate your review, here are some of the more significant terms and conditions we want to bring to your initial attention that are further detailed below. Capitalized terms have the meanings given to them where defined in these Terms and Conditions.

  • Each time you use the Site, these Terms and any applicable Additional Terms (defined below) posted apply, so you should check back each time you return for any updates.
  • You may only use the Content (defined below) on the Site in connection with your permitted activities on the Site and not in an offline environment or in conjunction with another site or service. (Section 1 and Section 4) You grant us a broad license to the content you submit or post. (Section 6)
  • Except as outlined in the Privacy Policy that applies to the Site, you and we do not have a confidential, fiduciary, or any other special relationship by virtue of your use of the Site or your communications to us through or related to the Service. (Section 6)
  • We are providing the Service to you on an “as-is” basis, without any warranty of any kind, and our liability to you in connection with your use of the Service is very limited. Many other limitations and disclaimers relate to your use of the Site. (Section 9 and Section 10)
  • Many types of disputes that may arise in connection with your access to and use of the Site are subject to, as permitted by applicable law, mandatory arbitration – which includes your waiver of a right to a jury trial, and class actions. (Section 16)

If you want to use the Site, then carefully read these entire Terms (including all links to details), as they constitute a written agreement between you and us, and the Terms affect your legal rights and obligations. The summaries of provisions and section headings are provided for convenience only and shall not limit the full Terms.

Each time you access and/or use the Site (other than to simply read these Terms), you agree to be bound by and comply with the Terms and any Additional Terms (defined below) then posted. Therefore, do not use the Site if you do not agree.

The business realities associated with operating the Site are such that, without the limitations that are outlined in these Terms – such as your grants and waivers of rights, the limitations on our liability, your indemnity of us, and our arbitration of certain disputes – we would not make the Site available to you.

By accessing and/or using any part of the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. In some instances, both these Terms and separate guidelines, rules, or terms of Site or sale setting forth additional or different terms and/or conditions will apply to your use of the Site or to a Site or product offered via the Site (in each such instance, and collectively “Additional Terms”). To the extent there is a conflict between these Terms and any Additional Terms, the Additional Terms will control unless the Additional Terms expressly state otherwise.

Any capitalized terms that appear in but are not otherwise defined in the introduction are intended to have the meanings given to them elsewhere in the Terms.

2. Copyrights and Copyright Agent

A. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) Notice

Company will respond appropriately to notices of alleged copyright infringement that comply with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), as set forth below. If you own a copyright in a work (or represent such a copyright owner) and believe that your (or such owner’s) copyright in that work has been infringed by an improper posting or distribution of it via the Site, then you may send us a written notice that includes all of the following:

(i) a legend or subject line that says: “DMCA Copyright Infringement Notice;”

(ii) a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed or, if multiple copyrighted works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;

(iii) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing or is the subject of infringing activity is located that is reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (please include the URL of the Site on which the material appears);

(iv) your full name, address, telephone number, and email address;

(v) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;

(vi) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that all the information in your notice is accurate, and that you are the copyright owner (or, if you are not the copyright owner, then your statement must indicate that you are authorized to act on the behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed); and

(vii) your electronic or physical signature.

Company will only respond to DMCA Notices that it receives by mail, email, or facsimile at the addresses below:

By Mail: WA Construct, LLC, 200 Sheffield Street, Suite #308, Mountainside, NJ 07092, ATTN: Hasnain Nasar, Chief Executive Officer (CEO)

By Email: support@waconstruct.com

By Facsimile: +1 (201) 500-3488

It is often difficult to determine if your copyright has been infringed. Company may elect to not respond to DMCA Notices that do not substantially comply with all of the foregoing requirements, and Company may elect to remove allegedly infringing material that comes to its attention via notices that do not substantially comply with the DMCA.

Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity is infringing may be subject to liability.

We may send the information that you provide in your notice to the person who provided the allegedly infringing work. That person may elect to send us a DMCA Counter-Notification.

We have a policy of terminating the ability of users who (in our reasonable discretion) are repeat infringers to post submissions on the Site. Without limiting Company’s other rights, Company may, in appropriate circumstances, terminate a repeat infringer’s access to the Site and any other website owned or operated by Company.

B. Counter-Notification

If access on the Site to a work that you submitted to Company is disabled or the work is removed as a result of a DMCA Notice, and if you believe that the disabled access or removal is the result of a mistake or misidentification, then you may send us a DMCA Counter-Notification to the addresses above. Your DMCA Counter-Notification should contain the following information:

(i) a legend or subject line that says: “DMCA Counter-Notification”

(ii) a description of the material that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the material appeared before it was removed or access to it was disabled (please include the URL of the Site from which the material was removed or access to it disabled);

(iii) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled;

(iv) your full name, address, telephone number, email address, and the username of your account (if you have an account);

(v) 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 the address is located outside the U.S.A., to the jurisdiction of the United States District

Court for New Jersey), and that you will accept Site of process from the person who provided DMCA notification to us or an agent of such person; and

(vi) your electronic or physical signature.

Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed of disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability.

If we receive a DMCA Counter-Notification, then we may replace the material that we removed (or stop disabling access to it) in not less than ten (10) and not more than fourteen (14) business days following receipt of the DMCA Counter-Notification. However, we will not do this if we first receive notice at the address above that the party who sent us the DMCA Copyright Infringement Notice has filed a lawsuit asking a court for an order restraining the person who provided the material from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Site. You should also be aware that we may forward the Counter-Notification to the party who sent us the DMCA Copyright Infringement Notice.

3. Procedure For Alleging Infringement of Other Intellectual Property

If you own intellectual property other than copyrights and believe that your intellectual property has been infringed by an improper posting or distribution of it via the Site, then you may send us a written notice to the address set forth above that includes all of the following:

(a) a legend or subject line that says: “Intellectual Property Infringement Notice;”

(b) a description of the intellectual property that you claim has been infringed;

(c) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing or is the subject of infringing activity is located that is reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material (please include the URL of the Site on which the material appears);

(d) your full name, address, telephone number, and email address;

(e) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the owner of the intellectual property, its agent, or the law;

(f) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that all the information in your notice is accurate, and that you are the owner of the intellectual property at issue (or, if you are not the owner, then your statement must indicate that you are authorized to act on the behalf of the owner of the intellectual property that is allegedly infringed); and

(g) your electronic or physical signature.

We will act on such notices in our sole discretion. Any user of the Site that fails to respond satisfactorily to Company with regard to any such notice is subject to suspension or termination. We may send the information that you provide in your notice to the person who provided the allegedly infringing material.

5. User Forums

Any user forums or interactive areas of the Site such as blogs, eBooks, contact forms, message boards, social networking environments, content creation tools, social communities, email, and other communications functionality (collectively, “User Forums”) may be provided to give users an interesting and stimulating forum to express their opinions and share their ideas and information. Company does not endorse the content in such User Forums. As a user of the Site, these User Forums Usage Rules (“Rules”) are here to help you understand the conduct that is expected of members of the Site’s User Forums. Your participation in the User Forums is subject to all of the Terms, including these Rules:

  • Your User-Generated Content. All of your User-Generated Content either must be original with you or you must have all necessary rights in it from third parties to permit you to comply with these Terms and any Additional Terms. Your User-Generated Content should not contain any visible logos, phrases, or trademarks that belong to third parties. Do not use any User-Generated Content that belongs to other people and pass it off as your own; this includes any content that you might have found elsewhere on the Internet. If anyone contributes to your User-Generated Content or has any rights to your User-Generated Content, or if anyone appears in the User-Generated Content, then you must also have their permission to submit such User-Generated Content to the Company. (For example, if someone has taken a picture of you and your friend, and you submit that photo to Company as your User-Generated Content, then you must obtain your friend’s and the photographer’s permission to do so.)
  • Speaking of Photos: No Pictures, Videos, or Images of Anyone Other Than You and Your Friends and Family. If you choose to submit photos to the Site, link to embedded videos, or include other images of real people, then make sure they are of you or of you and someone you know – and only if you have their express permission to submit it.
  • Act Appropriately. All of your Site activities must be venue-appropriate, as determined by us. Be respectful of others’ opinions and comments so we can continue to build User Forums for everyone to enjoy. If you think your User-Generated Content might offend someone or be embarrassing to someone, then chances are it probably will, and it doesn’t belong on the Site. Cursing, harassing, stalking, insulting comments, personal attacks, gossip, and similar actions are prohibited. Your User-Generated Content must not threaten, abuse, or harm others, and it must not include any negative comments that are connected to race, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, or physical handicap. Your User-Generated Content must not be defamatory, slanderous, indecent, obscene, pornographic, or sexually explicit.
  • Do Not Use for Commercial or Political Purposes. Your User-Generated Content must not advertise or promote a product or Site or other commercial activity, or a politician, public servant, or law.
  • Do Not Use for Inappropriate Purposes. Your User-Generated Content must not promote any infringing, illegal, or other similarly inappropriate activity.
  • Be Honest and Do Not Misrepresent Yourself or Your User-Generated Content. Do not impersonate any other person, user, or company, and do not submit User-Generated Content that you believe may be false, fraudulent, deceptive, inaccurate, or misleading, or that misrepresents your identity or affiliation with a person or company.
  • Others Can See. We hope that you will use the User Forums to exchange information and content and have venue appropriate discussions with other members. However, please remember that the User Forums are public or semi-public and User-Generated Content that you submit on the Site within a User Forum may be accessible and viewable by other users. Do not submit personally identifying information (e.g., first and last name together, password, phone number, address, credit card number, medical information, email address, or other personally identifiable information or contact information) on User Forum spaces and take care when disclosing this type of information to others.
  • Don’t Share Other Peoples’ Personal Information. Your User-Generated Content should not reveal another person’s address, phone number, email address, social security number, credit card number, medical information, financial information, or any other information that may be used to track, contact, or impersonate that individual, unless, and in the form and by the method, specifically requested by Company.
  • Don’t Damage the Site or Anyone’s Computers or Other Devices. Your User-Generated Content must not submit viruses, Trojan horses, spyware, or any other technologies or malicious code that could impact the operation of the Site or any computer or other Device.

Company may not review every message posted by users in User Forums and is not responsible for the content of these messages. Company reserves the right to, but is not obligated to, delete, move or edit User-Generated Content, in whole or in part, submitted by you to a User Forum for any reason, including a determination by Company, in Company’s sole discretion, that such User-Generated violates the Rules or violates any of these Terms. If you submit User-Generated Content that Company reasonably believes violates these Rules, then we may take any legally available action that we deem appropriate, in our sole discretion. However, we are not obligated to take any action not required by law. We may require, at any time, proof of the permissions referred to above in a form acceptable to us. Failure to provide such proof may lead to, among other things, the User-Generated Content in question being removed from the Site. To protect your safety, please use your best judgment when using User Forums, and consider carefully whether you want to disclose any information that can be used to identify or locate you. You are solely responsible for your interaction with other users of the Site, whether online or offline. We are not responsible or liable for the conduct or content of any user. We reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor or become involved in disputes between you and other users. Exercise common sense and your best judgment in your interactions with others (e.g., when you submit any personal or other information) and in all of your other online activities. If you discover any content that violates these Terms, then you may report it here. For alleged infringements of intellectual property rights, see Sections 2 and 3.

16. Dispute Resolution

Certain portions of this Section 16 are deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. You and Company agree that we intend that this Section 16 satisfies the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act. This Section 16 can only be amended by mutual agreement.

A. First:

Try To Resolve Disputes and Excluded Disputes. If any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Site, the Content, your User-Generated Content, Wireless Features, these Terms, or any Additional Terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising, including as relates to our service providers (collectively, “Dispute”), or to any of Company’s actual or alleged intellectual property rights (an “Excluded Dispute”, which includes those actions outlined in Section 16.D), then you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, along with a proposed resolution of it. Our notice to you will be sent to you based on the most recent contact information that you provide us. But if no such information exists or if such information is not current, then we have no obligation under this Section 16. A. Your notice to us must be sent to: WA Construct, LLC, 200 Sheffield Street, Suite #308, Mountainside, NJ 07092, ATTN: General Counsel. For sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, Company and you will engage in a dialogue to attempt to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, though nothing will require either you or Company to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute on terms concerning which you and Company, in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable.

B. Forums For Alternative Dispute Resolution

i. Arbitration

If we cannot resolve a Dispute as outlined in Section 16.A. within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then either you or we may submit the Dispute to formal arbitration in accordance with this Section 16.B. If we cannot resolve an Excluded Dispute as outlined in Section 16.A. within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then either you or we may submit the Excluded Dispute to formal arbitration only if you and Company consent, in a writing signed by you and an Officer or legal representative of Company, to have that Excluded Dispute subject to arbitration. In such a case (and only in such a case), that Excluded Dispute will be deemed a “Dispute” for the remainder of this Section 16.B.

Upon expiration of the applicable sixty-day period and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a Dispute will be resolved solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”); provided, however, our service providers will have the option to elect to apply this Section 16 to them in connection with your including them as a direct party in a Dispute arising out of their services for us. If the Dispute has a claimed value of not more than $250,000, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator who is a retired judge or a lawyer with not less than fifteen (15) years of experience as a practicing member of the bar in the substantive practice area related to the Dispute, who will administer the proceedings in accordance with the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. If the Dispute has a claimed value of more than $250,000, or if Company elects in its sole discretion to bear the costs of arbitration in excess of those that would occur for a proceeding before a single neutral arbitrator, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a three-member panel, with one member to be selected by each party and the third (who will be chair of the panel) selected by the two party-appointed members or by the AAA in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator or arbitration panel, as the case may be, will apply applicable law and the provisions of these Terms and any Additional Terms, will determine any Dispute according to the applicable law and facts based upon the record and no other basis, and will issue a reasoned award. If you and Company do not both consent to the arbitration of an Excluded Dispute as outlined in the immediately preceding paragraph of this Section 16.B(i), then this paragraph and the remainder of this Section 16.B will not apply to the Excluded Dispute.

If a party properly submits the Dispute to the AAA for formal arbitration and the AAA is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within sixty (60) days of the filing of a “demand for arbitration,” then either party can elect to have the arbitration administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc. (“JAMS”) using JAMS’ streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or by any other arbitration administration Site that you and an officer or legal representative of Company consent to in writing. The substantive practice area requirements for the arbitrator and the $250,000 threshold for the number of arbitrators assigned to the Dispute outlined in the paragraph above for the AAA arbitration will also apply to any such arbitration under JAMS or another arbitration Site.

You can obtain AAA and JAMS procedures, rules, and fee information as follows:

AAA: +1 (800) 778-7879;
JAMS: (949) 224-1810

ii. Nature, Limitations, and Location of Alternative Dispute Resolution

In arbitration, as with a court, the arbitrator must honor the terms of these Terms (and any Additional Terms) and can award the prevailing party damages and other relief (including attorneys’ fees). However, WITH ARBITRATION
(A) THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY,
(B) THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS AND ARBITRATION OUTCOME ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY RULES, AND
(C) JUDICIAL REVIEW OF THE ARBITRATION OUTCOME IS LIMITED.

All parties to the arbitration will have the right, at their own expense, to be represented by an attorney or other advocate of their choosing. If an in-person arbitration hearing is required, then it will be conducted in the “metropolitan statistical area” (as defined by the U.S. Census Bureau) where you are a resident at the time the Dispute is submitted to arbitration. You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require Company to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs for this Section 16 to be enforceable, then Company will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration. Discovery will be permitted pursuant to the applicable arbitration rules. The arbitrator’s decision must consist of a written statement stating the disposition of each claim of the Dispute and must provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and any award (if any) are based. Judgment on the arbitration decision and award (if any) may be entered in or by any court that has jurisdiction over the parties pursuant to Section 9 of the Federal Arbitration Act.

C. Limited Time To File Claims

 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR WE WANT TO ASSERT A DISPUTE (BUT NOT A EXCLUDED DISPUTE) AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN YOU OR WE MUST COMMENCE IT (BY DELIVERY OF WRITTEN NOTICE AS OUTLINED IN SECTION 16.A) WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES – OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.

D. Injunctive Relief

The foregoing provisions of this Section 16 will not apply to any legal action taken by Company to seek an injunction or other equitable relief in connection with, any loss, cost, or damage (or any potential loss, cost, or damage) relating to the Site, any Content, your User-Generated Content, Wireless Features and/or Company’s intellectual property rights (including such Company may claim that may be in dispute), Company’s operations, and/or Company’s products or services.

E. Small Claims Matters Are Excluded From Arbitration Requirement

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either of us may bring qualifying claim(s) of Disputes (but not Excluded Disputes) in small claims court, subject to Section 16.G.

F. No Class Action Matters

As permitted by applicable law, disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be consolidated with any other arbitration or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. But if, for any reason, any court with competent jurisdiction or any arbitrator selected pursuant to Section 16.B(i) holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement in Section 16.B to arbitrate will not apply and the Dispute must be brought exclusively in court pursuant to Section 16.G.

G. Federal and State Courts in Union County, New Jersey

Except to the extent that arbitration is required in Section 16.B, and except as to the enforcement of any arbitration decision or award, any action or proceeding relating to any Dispute or Excluded Dispute may only be instituted in state or federal court in Union County, Illinois. Accordingly, you and Company consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such matters.

17. General Provisions

A. Company’s Consent or Approval

As to any provision in these Terms or any Additional Terms that grants Company a right of consent or approval, or permits Company to exercise a right in its “sole discretion,” Company may exercise that right in its sole and absolute discretion.

You and we disclaim any application to these Terms of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.

D. Severability; Interpretation

If any provision of these Terms, or any Additional Terms, is for any reason deemed invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms or the Additional Terms, and the invalidity of the provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of these Terms or the Additional Terms (which will remain in full force and effect). To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to waive, and you hereby waive, any applicable statutory and common law that may permit a contract to be construed against its drafter. Wherever the word “including” is used in these Terms and Conditions or any Additional Terms, the word will be deemed to mean “including, without limitation,”. The summaries of provisions and section headings are provided for convenience only and shall not limit the full Terms and Conditions. In the event there is a discrepancy or inconsistency between the English language version and any translated version of these Terms and Conditions unless otherwise provided by law, the English version shall prevail and govern.

(ii) investigate any suspected breaches of these Terms and any Additional Terms,

Upon suspension or termination of your access to the Site, or upon notice from the Company, all rights granted to you under these Terms or any Additional Terms will cease immediately, and you agree that you will immediately discontinue use of the Site. The provisions of these Terms and Conditions and any Additional Terms, which by their nature should survive your suspension or termination will survive, including the rights and licenses you grant to Company in these Terms, as well as the indemnities, releases, disclaimers, and limitations on liability and the provisions regarding jurisdiction, choice of law, no class action, and mandatory arbitration.
