You are granted a limited, non-exclusive right to create text hyperlinks to the Services for informational purposes, provided such links do not portray us in a false, misleading, derogatory or otherwise defamatory manner and provided that the linking site does not contain any material that is unlawful, harmful, harassing, defamatory, threatening, intimidating, fraudulent, tortious, vulgar, obscene, hateful, pornographic, spam, discriminatory, violative of privacy or publicity rights, infringing of intellectual property or other proprietary rights, or otherwise objectionable in our sole discretion, including unauthorized or unsolicited advertising.

We may revoke these permissions at any time.
6. Termination
The Services and these Terms are in effect until terminated by you or us. We may terminate these Terms by notifying you using any contact information we have about you or by posting such termination on the Website or in your Account. You may terminate these Terms by providing written notice of termination, including your detailed contact information and any Account information or other Service credentials, to us using the information in the Contact Us section. Without limiting any other provision of these Terms, we reserve the right to, in our sole discretion, and without notice or liability, deny access to our Services to any person for any reason, including, without limitation, for engaging in the prohibited activities, breach of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in these Terms, or breach of any applicable law or regulation.
The provisions of these Terms concerning protection of intellectual property rights, authorized use, User Content, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnity, and disputes, as well as any other provisions that by their nature should survive, shall survive any such termination.
Upon any such termination, (i) you must destroy all Content obtained from the Services and all copies thereof; (ii) you will immediately cease all use of and access to the Services; (iii) we may delete or disable access to any of your User Content at any time; (iv) and we may delete your Account at any time.

Your use of the Services after termination will be a violation of this Section, which survives any termination.
Even after the termination of these Terms, your Account, or your access to the Services, any User Content you have posted or submitted may remain on the Website or Apps indefinitely.
7. Premium Features
Some of our Services may allow you to purchase premium features that provide an enhanced experience and/or expanded functionalities (“Premium Features”). Although we have a variety of Apps that offer different types of Premium Features, the provisions of these Terms apply to all of them. We may make improvements and/or changes to the Premium Features or terminate our offering of Premium Features at any time without notice. We also: (a) reserve the right to change the Premium Features advertised or offered for sale, the prices or specifications of such Premium Features, and any promotional offers at any time without any notice or liability to you or any other person; (b) do not warrant that information provided about the Premium Features (including without limitation product descriptions, colors or photographs) is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free; and (c) reserve the right to modify, cancel, terminate or not process orders (including accepted orders) where the price or other material information regarding Premium Features is inaccurate or for any other reason in our sole discretion. If we do not process an order for such reason, we will either not charge you or will apply credit to the payment type used in the order. Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusions and disclaimers of certain implied warranties, so some of the provisions of this section may not apply to you.
1. Purchases and Subscriptions
When you purchase Premium Features through the App, you can choose to make a one-time purchase giving you lifetime access to the Premium Features (“Lifetime Access”) or you can purchase a monthly or yearly subscription to access the Premium Features (“Subscription”). When you purchase a Subscription, we automatically bill the credit or debit card on file (“Payment Method”) for the Premium Features based on the term you select (e.g., on a monthly or yearly basis) until terminated. You can change your Subscription frequency or cancel your Subscription through your Apple App Store, Google Play Store, or other Third-Party App Store (defined below) settings at any time within 24 hours of the next scheduled payment date. By purchasing a Subscription, you authorize us to charge your Payment Method up to 24 hours before the end of the current Subscription term.
To purchase Lifetime Access or a Subscription, you will have to provide a valid, accepted Payment Method to either the Apple App Store or Google Play Store. By submitting such information, you agree and warrant that the Apple App Store or Google Play Store has the right to use or provide the information to third parties for payment processing. You may be subject to additional terms and conditions imposed by Apple or Google.
2. No Refunds
Payments for Lifetime Access and Subscriptions are nonrefundable. We do not provide partial refunds or credits for unused periods. Following any cancellation of your Subscription you will continue to have access to the Premium Features through the end of your Subscription term.
3. Taxes
If we are legally required to collect sales tax on your order, the tax amount will be added automatically to your purchase price. On rare occasions an error in our tax database may cause the sales tax charge to be incorrect. If this happens, at any time up to two years from your date of purchase you may contact us for a refund of tax overcharges. This right to a refund is your exclusive remedy for sales tax errors.
8. Intellectual Property Rights
All names, logos, text, designs, graphics, trade dress, characters, interfaces, code, software, images, sounds, videos, photographs and other content appearing in or on the Services (the “Content”) are protected by copyright, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights under the United States and foreign laws and international conventions, and are owned by or used with permission or under license by Lumora and its licensors.

We do not endorse User Content posted in Forums, cannot guarantee the accuracy or authenticity of such User Content, and are acting only as a passive conduit for such User Content.

10. Third-Party App Stores
You acknowledge and agree that the availability of the Services may be dependent on third-party websites from which you download the Service (each a “Third Party App Store”). You acknowledge that these Terms of Service are between you and Lumora and not with the applicable Third-Party App Store. Each Third-Party App Store may have its own terms and conditions to which you must agree before downloading the Service from it.

Please review such terms, you are solely responsible for reviewing and understanding those terms and ensuring you have the latest version.

The Service may contain links to websites, social media pages, mobile applications, or other services operated by third parties (“Third Party Sites”).

If you decide to visit any external link, you do so at your own risk and it is your responsibility to take all protective measures to guard against viruses or other destructive elements. We do not own or operate the Third-Party Sites, and we have not reviewed all of the material, including goods or services, made available through Third-Party Sites. The availability of these links on the Services does not represent, warrant or imply that we endorse or otherwise sponsor any Third-Party Sites or any materials, opinions, goods or services available on them.

12. Disclaimer of Medical Advice
IN THE EVENT OF A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, CONTACT EMERGENCY SERVICES IMMEDIATELY.
THE CONTENT CONTAINED IN SOME OF OUR SERVICES MAY CONTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT PROCESSES AND/OR THERAPIES THAT ARE NOT EVALUATED OR REGULATED BY THE UNITED STATES FOOD AND DRUG ADMINISTRATION. OUR SITES MAY ALSO CONTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT MEDICAL CONDITIONS AND MEDICAL TREATMENTS. SUCH INFORMATION IS INTENDED AS AN EDUCATIONAL AID ONLY. IT IS NOT INTENDED AS MEDICAL ADVICE FOR INDIVIDUAL CONDITIONS OR TREATMENT. IT IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR A PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS, NOR DOES IT REPLACE THE NEED FOR SERVICES PROVIDED BY MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS.
ALWAYS SEEK THE ADVICE OF YOUR PHYSICIAN, PHARMACIST OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTH CARE PROVIDER WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE REGARDING A MEDICAL CONDITION OR TREATMENT OR A CHANGE IN YOUR PERSONAL CARE OR HEALTH CARE REGIME. NEVER DISREGARD PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE OR DELAY IN SEEKING IT BECAUSE OF SOMETHING YOU HAVE READ ON A SITE. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RESULTS OF YOUR USE OF THE CONTENT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, YOU CHOOSING TO SEEK OR NOT TO SEEK PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL CARE, OR YOU CHOOSING OR NOT CHOOSING SPECIFIC TREATMENT BASED ON THE CONTENT.
13. Other Policies

Our use of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which you should refer to in order to fully understand how we use and collect information. Should we employ you, these Terms are not considered part of an employment contract or an offer for employment.
14. Legal Disputes, Arbitration Agreement, and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. YOU FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE RIGHTS TO DISCOVERY AND APPEALS MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT. IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN THE EU OR THE UK, THESE PROVISIONS WILL NOT AFFECT YOUR RIGHT TO RESOLVE DISPUTES IN YOUR LOCAL COURT OR TRIBUNAL. ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY, ALLOWS FOR MORE LIMITED DISCOVERY THAN IN COURT, AND IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS. YOU MAY CHOOSE TO BE REPRESENTED BY A LAWYER IN ARBITRATION OR PROCEED WITHOUT ONE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS.
1. INITIAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION
We want to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. For any dispute with Lumora, you agree to first contact us at [email protected], and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Services. Your Notice of Dispute must be individual to you and must include, as applicable, your name, your email address, and your residential address. The Notice of Dispute also must explain the facts of the dispute as you understand them and tell us what you want us to do to resolve the issue. You agree to use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, and you agree that a Notice of Dispute containing all of the information required above, followed by at least 60 days of good faith negotiation, shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. A Notice of Dispute will not be valid unless it contains all of the information required by this paragraph. If you commence an arbitration without having previously provided a valid and compliant Notice of Dispute, you and we agree that the applicable arbitration provider (or the arbitrator, if one has been appointed) must suspend the arbitration pending compliance with this paragraph. You and we authorize the arbitration provider or the arbitrator to decide summarily whether the party that commenced an arbitration complied with these notice requirements, relying solely on this Agreement and the Notice of Dispute provided (if any). All statutes of limitation shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this paragraph.
2. AGREEMENT TO BINDING ARBITRATION
In the unlikely event that we do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 15(a) above, then either you or we may initiate binding arbitration. Except in the event of a Mass Arbitration (as defined below) as described in Section 15(e), all dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, other agreements found on the Services, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be either determined by binding arbitration in [Hong Kong] before one arbitrator or submitted to small claims court in [Hong Kong]. If the arbitrator finds this location to be unreasonably burdensome to you, a new location may be selected or arbitration may be conducted over the phone, using video conferencing, or similar. You may be entitled to an in-person hearing near your place of residence. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Any arbitration arising out of or related to these Terms shall be conducted in accordance with the expedited procedures set forth in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures as those Rules exist on the effective date of these Terms, including Rules 16.1 and 16.2 of those Rules.
3. NO CLASS ACTIONS
YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
15. Warranty Disclaimer; Limitation on Liability

2. Limited Liability.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR LOST PROFIT DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE, CONTRIBUTIONS, MATERIALS OR ANY OTHER CONTENT THEREIN, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO DAMAGES CAUSED BY OR RELATED TO ERRORS, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DEFECTS, DELAY IN OPERATIONS OR TRANSMISSION, OR ANY COMPUTER VIRUS OR FAILURE.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, OUR LIABILITY TO YOU IN RESPECT OF ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE SUFFERED BY YOU AND ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR FOR BREACH OF STATUTORY DUTY OR IN ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE ACTUAL TOTAL AMOUNT RECEIVED BY US FROM YOU OR THE LOWEST LIABILITY LIMITATION ALLOWED BY APPLICABLE LAW.
16. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify, defend and hold us and the Releasees and all of our directors, officers, employees, agents, shareholders, successors, assigns, and contractors harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, suits, actions, liabilities, judgments, losses, costs (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) or other expenses that arise directly or indirectly out of or from (i) your breach of any provision of these Terms; (ii) your activities in connection with the Services; or (iii) the Content or other information you provide to us through the Services. We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of these claims. We will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action, or proceeding upon becoming aware of it.
17. Digital Millennium Copyright Act Policy
We follow the notice and takedown provisions of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”). This section describes the information that should be present in notices of alleged copyright infringement and the take down procedure we follow with respect to allegedly infringing material. If we receive proper notification of claimed copyright infringement, our response to these notices may include removing or disabling access to the allegedly infringing material and/or terminating or suspending users. If we remove or disable access in response to such a notice, we will make a good-faith attempt to contact the provider of the allegedly infringing content so that they may make a counter notification pursuant to the DMCA. It is our policy to accommodate and not interfere with standard technical measures used by copyright owners to identify or protect their copyrighted works that we determine are reasonable under the circumstances. In addition, we may terminate the account and access rights of any repeat infringer in appropriate circumstances. If you are a copyright owner or the legal agent of a copyright owner, and you believe that any User Content on the Service infringes upon your copyrights, you may submit a takedown notification to us by sending an email to [email protected] with the Subject Line “DMCA Notice” and include the following:
- Identify the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
- Identify the material or link on our Services that you claim is infringing your copyrighted work;
- Provide your full legal name, company affiliation, mailing address, telephone number, and email address; and
- Include in the body of your notice the following statement, followed by your electronic or physical signature: “I hereby state that the information in this Notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of, the owner, of the copyright or of an exclusive right under the copyright that is allegedly infringed.”
We will respond to all such notices, including as required or appropriate by removing the infringing material or disabling all links to the infringing material. We will terminate our user’s access to and use of our Services if, under appropriate circumstances, the alleged user is determined to be a repeat infringer of the copyrights or other intellectual property rights of Lumora or others.
