The display of any Merchandise on the Site does not imply or warrant that these products will be available at any particular time or that the listed attributes are accurate or complete. The actual color of Merchandise you see via the Site will depend in part on your computer system, and we cannot guarantee that any color or texture or detail of actual Merchandise will be accurate and consistent with what appears on the Site. We do not endorse and have not verified the accuracy or reliability of any opinion or statement made on the Site by any third party, including but not limited to customers, manufacturers, distributors or suppliers of products and services available through the Site, including the Merchandise, and product packaging and material may contain additional or different information.

  1. Arbitration Agreement and Waiver of Certain Rights

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT AS THE TERMS OTHERWISE PROVIDE, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS TO TRYANY CLAIM IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

a. Arbitration: You and SIGND agree to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and SIGND arising from or relating in any way to: (1) these Terms and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof, and the     relationships which result from these Terms; (2) your use of the Site; or (3) any products or services sold or distributed by SIGND through the Site (collectively, “Covered Disputes”)through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. The arbitrator also has the sole authority to and shall address all claims or arguments by both parties concerning the formation, legality, and enforceability of this arbitration clause, the scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of any claim or issue arising between us. You and SIGND each hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any controversy, claim, counterclaim, or other dispute, arising between you and SIGND relating to these Terms or our Site (each a “Claim,” and collectively, “Claims”). Any arbitration will be governed in     accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The AAA Rules are available online at https://www.adr.org/consumer, by calling the AAA at 800-778-7879, or by writing to the AAA Notice Address. To the extent that there is a conflict between this clause and the AAA Rules, the arbitrator shall resolve such conflicts so as to preserve the parties’ mutual obligation to arbitrate claims on an individual basis. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a     single neutral arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will be in writing, will include the arbitrator’s reasons for the decision, will be final and binding upon the parties, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including any pleadings, briefs, or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be     required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies.

Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60-days advance written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. SIGND will provide such notice by email to your e-mail address on file with SIGND and you must provide such notice by email to: legal@signd.com. During such 60-day notice period, the parties will endeavor to settle amicably by mutual discussions any Covered Disputes. Failing such amicable settlement and expiration of the notice period, either party may initiate arbitration.

b. Costs and Fees: If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, SIGND will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being  prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. SIGND will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.

c. No Preclusions: This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or SIGND from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and SIGND each also have the right to bring any qualifying Claim in small claims court. In addition, you and SIGND each retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, or other equitable relief in aid of arbitration, and any such request will not be deemed to be either incompatible with these Terms or a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms. Any claims, disputes, actions or proceedings by SIGND relating to its intellectual property rights and/or to prevent unfair competition, misappropriation of trade secrets, unauthorized access, fraud, industrial espionage, and or fraud (including computer fraud) may be brought by SIGND in the federal courts in Florida, and you irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

d. No Class Representative or Private Attorney General: You and SIGND each agree that with respect to any Claim, neither may: (i) act as a class representative or private attorney general, or (ii) participate as a member of a class of claimants. You agree that no Claim may be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only individual Claims (whether brought by you or SIGND). The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.

e. Severability/No Waiver/Survival: If any provision of this Section 19 is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed appropriately modified to give effect to the intent of the provision or, if modification is not possible, will be severed and the remainder of this Section 19 will continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this Section 19 will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver will not waive or affect any other provision of these Terms. This Section 19 will survive the termination of your relationship with SIGND.

f. 30-Day Opt-Out Right: You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending, within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement, written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: SIGND, Attn: Legal Department, 1181 S. Rogers Circle #18, Boca Raton, FL 33487. Your notice must include your name and address, any usernames, each email address you have used to submit your order to SIGND or set up an account on our Site (if applicable), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. You agree that if you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.

g. LIMITATIONS: This Section 19 limits certain rights, including the right to maintain certain court actions, the right to a jury trial, the right to participate in any form of class or representative claim, the right to engage in discovery except as provided in AAA rules, and the right to certain remedies and  forms of relief. In addition, other rights that you or SIGND would have in court may not be available in arbitration.

20. Promotions, Referrals, and Loyalty Programs

SIGND, in its sole discretion, may make available promotions, referral programs and loyalty programs with different features to any Site users or prospective users. These promotions and programs, unless made to you, shall have no bearing whatsoever on your Agreement or relationship with SIGND. SIGND reserves the right to withhold or deduct credits or benefits obtained through a promotion or program in the event that SIGND determines or believes that the redemption of the promotion or receipt of the credit or benefit was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of the applicable promotion or program terms or this Agreement. SIGND reserves the right to terminate, discontinue or cancel any promotions or programs at any time and in its sole discretion without notice to you.

Currently, SIGND’s referral program provides you with incentives to refer your friends and family to become new users of the Site(the “Customer Referral Program”). Your participation in the Customer Referral Program is subject to this Agreement and the Additional Terms.

21. Other Provisions

a. Force Majeure: Under no circumstances will any SIGND Party be liable for any delay or failure in performance due in whole or in part to any acts of God (such as earthquakes, storms, floods, etc.), unavoidable accidents, laws, rules, regulations or orders of government authorities, acts of war (declared or not), terrorism, hostilities, blockades, civil disturbances, embargoes, strikes, pandemics, or any other event or cause beyond the reasonable control of any SIGND Party.

b. Choice of Law and Jurisdiction: These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any conflict of laws rules or  provisions. You agree that any action of whatever nature arising from or relating to these Terms or our Site that is not subject to the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 19 above will be filed only in the state or federal courts located in Florida. You consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of any such action.

c. Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed appropriately modified to give effect to the intent of the provision or, if modification is not possible, will be severed from these Terms and will not affect the enforceability of any other provision.

d. No Waiver or Amendment: The failure by SIGND to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not prevent SIGND from enforcing such right or provision in the future and will not be deemed to modify these Terms.

e. Assignment: SIGND may, at any time, assign its rights and obligations under these Terms, including to an affiliated entity or in connection with a sale of assets, merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, other transaction, or by operation of law.

f. Miscellaneous: The term “including” in these Terms will be interpreted broadly and will mean “including, without limitation.” Titles are for convenience only and will not be considered when interpreting these Terms.

g. Captions/Headings: The captions and headings appearing in these Terms are inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way shall be construed as defining or limiting the scope or intent of any provision of these Terms, nor in any way affecting them.

  1. Changes to these Terms

We may change these Terms. If we do, we will post the revised Terms on our Site and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms. The revised Terms will be effective immediately if you accept them (for example, by agreeing when you create an account or login to an existing account, or using or continuing to use our Site after the revised Terms have been posted); otherwise, they will be effective 30 days after posting.

SIGND CUSTOMER REFERRAL PROGRAM

Last Updated: Jan 5, 2023

These Additional Terms govern your use of, and participation in, the Customer Referral Program (defined below). “You” and “User” refers to you as a user of the Site and of the Customer Referral Program.

  1. We provide each User who has created a Site account with a unique referral URL (“URL”) that may be shared with the User’s eligible friends, family members, or other personal contacts (“Referrers”) and used by them when they create a User Site account for the first time, pursuant to the terms set out below (“Customer Referral Program”). You acknowledge and agree that: (a) SIGND limits the number of URLs made available to you, (b) you have no ownership rights in any form over the URLs, and (c) SIGND may  reclaim, deactivate, invalidate or terminate your URL at any time at its discretion.
  2. Participation in the Customer Referral Program is limited to: (a) each Referrer; and (b) Referrer’s friends, family members, or personal contacts who have never either: (i) made a SIGND purchase (even without creating a Site account); or (ii) created a Site account. Employees, officers, directors, contractors, agents, and     representatives of SIGND may not participate. These requirements are set by SIGND in its sole discretion and are subject to change at any time.
  3. For each eligible friend, family member, or personal contact who creates a User Site account for the first time using your URL (each, a “Referred User”), SIGND will issue a one-time credit to the Referred User and, after the Referred User’s first SIGND purchase priced at the minimum amount specified or more, to Referrer (each, a “Customer Referral Credit”) as described below:

a. After the Referred User creates a Site account, SIGND will issue a Customer Referral Credit to the Referred User’s Site account (in approximately one or two business days); and

b. After the Referred User makes their first order on the Site priced at or above the minimum amount specified, and that request is paid for and fulfilled (excluding any purchase for which a promo code was used and, at SIGND’s discretion, that was subject to a promotion), SIGND will issue a Customer Referral Credit for that Referred User to the Referrer’s (your) account (in approximately one or two business days from the date on which the order was fulfilled).

4. Not withstanding anything to the contrary contained in these Additional Terms, you acknowledge and agree that:

a. a new User will not be one of your Referred Users under the Customer Referral Program and no Customer Referral Credit will be due to that new User or you if:

i. your URL is not used when a new User creates a new Site account;

ii. your friend, family member, or personal contact has previously either made a SIGND purchase (with or without creating a Site account) or created a Site       account (with or without another URL), whether or not, in either case, under the same or different name or email address, or otherwise; or

iii. anyone else has received or is receiving a Customer Referral Credit in connection with that friend, family member, or personal contact;

and

b. each new User may have only one Referrer, and we are not obligated  to pay more than one Customer Referral Credit to each Referred User for creation of a Site account or to pay a Customer Referral Credit to more than one Referrer with respect to any Referred User. In the event that multiple persons claim credit for a particular referral, SIGND has full discretion to determine which person earned such referral.

5. Any Customer Referral Credit received from SIGND will be maintained in your Site account and may be redeemed only for your purchase of a SIGND Experience from our Site. If your Site account has a credit balance when you make a purchase while logged into your Site account, the balance will be redeemed for that purchase (until fully redeemed) and your payment card will be charged for any remaining portion of the purchase price; any remaining balance will remain in your Site account to be redeemed for your next purchase. If you have a credit balance in your Site account, you may not use a promo code and, at SIGND’s discretion, might not be able to participate in an offering that is subject to a promotion. A credit balance is not refundable, may not be redeemed for cash, cannot be transferred, cannot be used outside of the Site, and expires or extinguishes immediately when redeemed.

6. The Customer Referral Program may be used only for personal purposes and you may share your URL only with your personal connections. You may not advertise your URL or share it with anyone other than your friends, family or other personal contacts. The Customer Referral Program cannot be used for any commercial purpose, including affiliate lead generation. The Customer Referral Program is void where prohibited by law.

7. You represent and warrant that when you share your URL with eligible individuals, you will: (a) distribute it in a personal manner; (b) not distribute it in a bulk manner;  (c) not create or send any unsolicited commercial email or a “spam” message under any applicable law or regulation, and will remain compliant with CAN-SPAM, the TCPA, and other applicable laws; and (d) not attempt to mislead anyone in connection with the Customer Referral Program, either by affirmative representation, implication, or omission. Any sharing that does not meet these requirements is expressly prohibited and constitutes grounds for immediate termination of your Site account, including deletion of any Customer Referral Credits, and your participation in the Customer Referral Program. Any Site account created using a URL that was distributed through an unauthorized channel will not be valid and any Customer Referral Fees issued in connection with that Site account may be revoked.

8. You agree that you will not, and we reserve the right to deactivate your Site account and any Referred User’s Site account, cancel all related Customer Referral Credits, and seek repayment, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that either you or the Referred User has: (a) tampered with the Customer Referral Program; (b) used (or attempted to use) the Customer Referral Program in a fraudulent, abusive, unethical, unsportsmanlike, or otherwise questionable or suspicious manner; (c) breached any of the Site Terms or these Additional Terms; (d) used the SIGND brand in connection with (i) disparaging or defamatory content concerning SIGND or third parties; (ii) content that promotes racism, bigotry, hatred, discrimination or physical harm of any kind against any group or individual; (iii) offensive, abusive, intimidating or harassing content; (iv) content that violates someone else’s privacy; or (v) any political or religious statement; or (e) violated any law or regulation or infringed or violated the rights of any third party.

9. You will not sell your URL. You agree that you will only distribute your URL free of charge only for promotional purposes. You may not sell, trade, or barter your URL under any circumstances. You may not pay or provide anything of value to an invited user beyond any URL or collateral supplied by SIGND.

10. Credits do not expire, but the terms of the Customer Referral Program are subject to change at any time, for any reason, in our sole discretion. SIGND reserves the right, at any time, for any reason, in its sole discretion to:

a. suspend or terminate the Customer Referral Program;

b. disqualify anyone from participating in the Customer Referral Program; and

c. revoke, refuse to issue, or refuse to redeem any Customer Referral Credits that we suspect were generated through improper channels or in violation of these Additional Terms.

Without limiting the foregoing, we reserve the right to review and investigate activities undertaken in connection with the Customer Referral Program and suspend your Site account, revoke all Customer Referral Fees, or take other action in our sole discretion.

  1. By participating in the Customer Referral Program, you agree to release and hold harmless SIGND Parties from and against any and all economic liabilities, claims, damages, loss, harm, costs, or expenses, including property damage, that arise from or relate in any way to the Customer Referral Program. THIS SECTION 11 APPLIES ONLY TO ECONOMIC DAMAGES AND DOES NOT APPLY TO CLAIMS OF FRAUD OR PERSONAL INJURY.

  1. SIGND Videos

a. From time to time, a user of our Site (“User”) may purchase a SIGND Experience through our Site related to you as an Icon. The SIGND Experience consists of a physical product (“Merchandise”) such as an item of sporting memorabilia (for example, a football, basketball, soccer ball, hockey puck or jersey), or another item of physical memorabilia associated with you, autographed by you, together with a link to a personalized video recording (each, a “SIGND Video”) to be made by you, in connection with personalizing the SIGND Experience for the User.

b. We expect you to complete each request for a SIGND Experience that you accept by autographing the Merchandise, recording and uploading the SIGND Video to our Site, and placing the boxed SIGND Experience with the carrier within 48 hours of receiving the Merchandise from SIGND, unless the fulfillment time has been separately agreed between you and SIGND. You may decline a request or otherwise refuse, in your discretion, a User’s request to create or upload a SIGND Video if a User’s request is objectionable or otherwise offensive to you. If you accept the request associated with a SIGND Experience, you agree to record and upload to our Site one SIGND Video.

c. SIGND retains the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel any request from a User. No payment will be made to you for any declined, cancelled, or unfulfilled SIGND Video request.

d. Each SIGND Video shall be a minimum of 30 seconds in duration and will follow the general directions and requests of the User (for example, birthday message, congratulatory message, or “Good luck!” message). You will have sole discretion over the script and content of any SIGND Video, except that you agree: (i) you will use your name (please introduce yourself), the User’s name, and the name of any third party that the User identifies as a recipient (“Recipient”) in each SIGND Video, unless otherwise requested by the User; and (ii) you will not state in the SIGND Video that the SIGND Video is incomplete or cannot be completed. Your response to the User’s request is your responsibility and at your discretion, subject to these Terms; however, Users are usually happiest when at least the majority of their request is followed by an Icon User. If you complete a SIGND Video but do not follow the general directions and requests of the User, we will discuss with you an appropriate adjustment of the payment made to you. You understand and agree that we are not responsible for, and undertake no responsibility to approve, monitor or otherwise police, the SIGND Video.

  1. Arbitration Agreement and Waiver of Certain Rights

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT AS THE TERMS OTHERWISE PROVIDE, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHTS TO TRYANY CLAIM IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

a. Arbitration: You and SIGND agree to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and SIGND arising from or relating in any way to: (1) these Terms and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof, and the     relationships which result from these Terms; (2) your use of the Site; or (3) any products or services sold or distributed by SIGND through the Site (collectively, “Covered Disputes”) through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. The arbitrator also has the sole authority to and shall address all claims or arguments by both parties concerning the formation, legality, and enforceability of this arbitration clause, the scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of any claim or issue arising between us.  You and SIGND each hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any controversy, claim, counterclaim, or other dispute arising between you and SIGND relating to these Terms or our Site (each a “Claim,” and collectively, “Claims”). Any arbitration will be governed in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The AAA Rules are available online at https://www.adr.org/consumer, by calling the AAA at 800-778-7879, or by writing to the AAA Notice Address. To the extent that there is a conflict between this clause and the AAA Rules, the arbitrator shall resolve such conflicts so as to preserve the parties’ mutual obligation to arbitrate claims on an     individual basis. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will be in writing, will include the arbitrator’s reasons for the decision, will be final and binding upon the parties, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or     exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be     required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies.

Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60-days’advance written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. SIGND will provide such notice by email to your e-mail address on file with SIGND and you must provide such notice by email to: legal@signd.com. During such 60-day notice period, the parties will endeavor to settle amicably by mutual discussions any Covered Disputes. Failing such amicable settlement and expiration of the notice period, either party may initiate arbitration.

b. Costs and Fees: If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, SIGND will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. SIGND will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.

c. No Preclusions: This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or SIGND from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and SIGND each also have the right to bring any qualifying Claim in small claims court. In addition, you and SIGND each retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, or other equitable relief in aid of arbitration and any such request will not be deemed to be either incompatible with these Terms or a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms. Any claims, disputes, actions or proceedings by SIGND relating to its intellectual property rights and/or to prevent unfair competition, misappropriation of trade secrets, unauthorized access, fraud, industrial espionage, and or fraud (including computer fraud) may be brought in the federal courts in Florida, and you irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

d. No Class Representative or Private Attorney General: Each of you and SIGND agree that with respect to any Claim, neither may: (i) act as a class representative or private attorney general; or (ii) participate as a member of a class of claimants. You agree that no Claim may be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only individual Claims (whether brought by you or SIGND). The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.

e. Severability/No Waiver/Survival: If any provision of this Section 19 is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed appropriately modified to give effect to the intent of the provision or, if modification is not possible, will be severed and the remainder of this Section 19 will continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this Section 19 will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver will not waive or affect any other provision of these Terms. This Section 19 will survive the termination of your relationship with SIGND.

f. 30-Day Opt-Out Right: You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending, within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement, written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: SIGND, Attn: Legal Department, 1181 S. Rogers Circle #18, Boca Raton, FL 33487. Your notice must include your name and address, any usernames, each email address you have used to set up an account on our Site, and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. You agree that if you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.

g. LIMITATIONS: This Section 19 limits certain rights, including the right to maintain certain court actions, the right to a jury trial, the right to participate in any form of class or representative claim, the right to engage in discovery except as provided in AAA rules, and the right to certain remedies and forms of relief. In addition, other rights that you or SIGND would have in court may not be available in arbitration.

  1. Other Provisions

a. Force Majeure: Under no circumstances will any SIGND Party be liable for any delay or failure in performance due in whole or in part to any acts of God (such as earthquakes, storms, floods, etc.), unavoidable accidents, laws, rules, regulations or orders of government authorities, acts of war (declared or not), terrorism, hostilities, blockades, civil disturbances, embargoes, strikes, pandemics, or any other event or cause beyond the reasonable control of any SIGND Party.

b. Choice of Law and Jurisdiction: These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without giving effect to any conflict of laws rules or provisions. You agree that any action of whatever nature arising from or relating to these Terms or our Site will be filed only in the state or federal courts located in Florida. You consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of any such action.

c. Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed appropriately modified to give effect to the intent of the provision or, if modification is not possible, will be severed from these Terms and will not affect the enforceability of any other provision.

d. No Waiver or Amendment: The failure by SIGND to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not prevent SIGND from enforcing such right or provision in the future and will not be deemed to modify these Terms.

e. Assignment: SIGND may, at any time, assign its rights and obligations under these Terms, including to an affiliated entity or in connection with a sale of assets, merger, acquisition, reorganization, bankruptcy, other transaction, or by operation of law.

f. Miscellaneous: The term “including” in these Terms will be interpreted broadly and will mean “including, without limitation.” Titles are for convenience only and will not be considered when interpreting these Terms.

g. Captions/Headings: The captions and headings appearing in these Terms are inserted only as a matter of convenience and in no way shall be construed as defining or limiting the scope or intent of any provision of these Terms, nor in any way affecting them.

We may change these Terms. If we do, we will post the revised Terms on our Site and update the “Last Updated” date at the top of these Terms. The revised Terms will be effective immediately if you accept them (for example, by agreeing when you create an account or login to an existing account, or using or continuing to use our Site after the revised Terms have been posted); otherwise, they will be effective 30 days after posting.
