Introduction

BY INSTALLING, USING OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE AND OUR PRIVACY POLICY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, YOU DO NOT HAVE PERMISSION TO INSTALL, USE OR OTHERWISE ACCESS THE SERVICE. PERMISSION TO USE THE SERVICE IS VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.

The terms of this agreement (“Terms of Service” or “Terms”) govern the relationship between you and Sulake Oy (hereinafter “Sulake” or “Us” or “We”) regarding your use of Habbo Hotel located at www.habbo.com or our other sites or services that post these Terms (the “Service(s)”), whether accessed by computer, mobile phone or other device (each, a “Device”). Use of the Service is also governed by the Service’s Privacy Policy, incorporated herein by reference, and you consent to our practices as explained there. You further agree that we may change, alter, or modify the settings or configurations on your Device in order to allow for or optimize your use of the Service. In addition, some of our Service products or services may be made available subject to certain additional or different terms and/or conditions that apply to them (in each such instance, and collectively, “Additional Terms”), which will supplement these Terms.

Before accessing or using the Service, you must agree to these Terms and the Service’s Privacy Policy and register an account on the Service (an “Account”). By registering for an Account or otherwise using the Service, you represent that you are 13 or older and you understand and accept these Terms and the Service’s Privacy Policy. If you are under the age of majority where you live you represent that your legal guardian has also reviewed and agreed to these Terms and the Service’s Privacy Policy. The Service may exist on, or in connection with, a number of third-party platforms (e.g., Facebook). Please be aware that your activities on these platforms may also be subject to the terms of service and/or privacy policies for that platform, and we are not responsible for these third parties.

Sulake reserves the right to prospectively revise these Terms at any time (meaning the old terms continue to apply to your use that predates the changes). If we do, we will post the modified Terms on the Service and indicate the date of most the recent change above, and you agree that this will be sufficient notice to you that new terms apply and your continued use indicates your agreement to the new terms in connection with that ongoing use.

11. ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Certain portions of this Section 10 are deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and apply to all United States users of the Service and to all other users to the extent the mandatory laws in their country of residence permit the various terms of this Section (so some provisions will not apply to some users if doing so would violate mandatory applicable law). You and Sulake agree that we intend that this Section 10 satisfies the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act. This Section 10 can only be changed or terminated upon mutual agreement.

11.1 Disputes. Any controversy, allegation, or claim between you and Sulake arising out of or relating to the Service, the Content, these Terms, or any applicable Additional Terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising are “Disputes”.

11.1.1 First – Try to Resolve. If you or Sulake becomes aware of a Dispute, then you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the 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 10.1.1. Your notice to us must be sent to: Sulake Oy, Legal, Dagmarinkatu 6, 00100 Helsinki FINLAND

. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, Sulakeand you will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Dispute, though nothing will require either you or Sulake to resolve the Dispute on terms with respect to which you and Sulake, in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable.

11.1.2 Arbitration of Most Disputes. If we cannot resolve a Dispute as set forth in Section 10.1.1 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 10.1, unless it is an Excluded Dispute, which shall be handled in accordance with Section 10.2.

11.1.3 Arbitrator. Upon expiration of the applicable sixty (60)-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 JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS, Inc. (“JAMS”). JAMS procedures, rules, and fee information are available, as follows:

JAMS: 949.224.1810

http://www.jamsadr.com/

10.1.4 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 applicable 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 © 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 area 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 Sulake to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this Section 10 to be enforceable, then Sulake 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) is 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.

11.1.5 No Class Action Matters. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be consolidated with any other arbitrations 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 10.1.3 holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement in Section 10.1.2 to arbitrate will not apply, and the Dispute must be brought exclusively in court pursuant to Section 10.3.

11.1.6 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 SET FORTH IN SECTION 10.1.1 WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER DISCOVERY OF THE DISPUTE ARISES – OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.

11.2 Excluded Disputes. The following disputes constitute “Excluded Disputes” hereunder: (i) any Dispute regarding any of Sulake’s actual or alleged intellectual property rights, (ii) Disputes, to the extent that the laws of the user’s local jurisdiction authorize may be brought in small claims court, and (iii) legal action taken by Sulake 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 Service, any Content, your User-Generated Content and/or Sulake’s intellectual property rights (including such Sulake may claim that may be in dispute), Sulake’s operations, and/or Sulake’s products or services (collectively, “Injunctive Relief”).

11.2.1 First – Try to Resolve. If (x) any Excluded Dispute arises, and (y) excluding Excluded Disputes involving Injunctive Relief, you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the 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 10.2.1. Your notice to us must be sent to: Sulake Oy, Legal, Dagmarinkatu 6, 00100 Helsinki, Finland. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, Sulake and you will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Excluded Dispute, though nothing will require either you or Sulake to resolve the Excluded Dispute on terms with respect to which you and Sulake, in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable.

11.2.2 If we cannot resolve authorized Excluded Dispute as set forth in Section 10.2.1 within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then either you or we may submit the Excluded Dispute to formal arbitration pursuant to Section 10.1 only if you and Sulake consent, in a writing signed by you and an officer or business and legal affairs representative of Sulake, 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” and shall be governed by Section 10.1. In the absence of such agreement, Section 10.1 shall not apply to Excluded Disputes, and Sections 10.3 and 15.1 shall apply.

11.2.3 Injunctive Relief. With respect to Excluded Disputes involving Injunctive Relief, Sections 10.3 and 15.1 apply, and Sulake may institute such Excluded Disputes as authorized therein immediately.

11.3 Jurisdiction. Except to the extent that arbitration is required in Section 10.1 or authorized in Section 10.2, 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 Helsinki, Finland.
