PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE (“TERMS”) CAREFULLY BEFORE USING ANY COMPANY PLATFORM, AS THEY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WAIVERS OF RIGHTS, LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, AND YOUR INDEMNITY TO US. THESE TERMS REQUIRE THE COMPLETION OF INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESSES PRIOR TO EITHER PARTY’S COMMENCEMENT OF LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

You are reading these Terms because you are using a Irvine Ice Foundation’s (“Company” or “us”) website or mobile application, both of which are part of Company’s Platform (“Platform”).  You may access the Platform through a computer, mobile phone, tablet, console, or other technology, which is referred to here as a “Device”.  Your carrier's normal rates and fees apply to your Device.

These Terms create a legally binding agreement between you and Company regarding your use of the Platform. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE PLATFORM YOU ARE INDICATING THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS, AND THAT YOU AGREE TO COMPLY WITH AND BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THE TERMS. A few important points:

• Company’s Terms May Change.  Company may update these Terms from time to time in Company’s sole discretion. If a material change is made, Company will post a notice on the Platform and/or send you a notification. Read through any changes, and if you don’t agree to them, please stop using the Platform. By continuing to use the Platform after Company has posted an updated version of the Terms or otherwise notified you of an update, you are affirming that you agree to be bound by the updated Terms, except to the extent prohibited by applicable law. No other modification, amendment, supplement of or to the Terms will be binding on us unless it is in writing and signed by an authorized representative.

By using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have reviewed and understand the Privacy Policy. You agree to: (a) provide accurate, current and complete information about yourself; (b) maintain the security of your password and identification; and (c) maintain and update information you provide to Company.
