Additionally, as such points are not your property they cannot be transferred by operation of law, such as by inheritance, in bankruptcy or in connection with a divorce.
f). Raiinmaker members earn Coiin reward points that are distributed upon the end of a marketing campaign. The amount is based upon a member’s influence score in relation to the influence score of all participating members, against the total amount of Coiin reward points staked to the enrolled marketing campaign.
The user influence score earns a point for every digital value interaction tracked for the life span of an eligible campaign, depending on the weighted earn rate determined by the enrolled marketing campaign.

g). Members who participant in marketing campaigns will be eligible to earn additional reward points provisioned by the specific marketing campaign which will be based on the Member’s influence score.

If not withdrawn, Coiin will “expire” and be removed from a member’s account after 2 years from the last earning or withdrawal activity within an account. Additionally, upon termination of a member’s account, any and all Coiin associated with a member’s account will be automatically and irrevocably removed and deleted.

However, if a state does not require this, it may still require that their residents file a sales or use tax return for Rewards Redeemed on the Site.

It is impossible for RAIINMAKER to determine in each case whether your use of the Social Network Features would cause you to violate or breach the terms of service and/or other agreements posted on those third-party sites. You understand and acknowledge that your actions in association with your use of the Social Network Features may possibly cause you to violate or breach the terms of service and other agreements posted on those third-party sites which could result in the termination of your account and ability to access those third-party sites and, in some cases, could give rise to the possibility of liability for damages. You agree that you alone are responsible for your use of any Social Network Features and that RAIINMAKER will not be liable to you or anyone else for your violation or breach of any terms of service or other agreement of any third-party sites, App or service that may result from your use of such Social Network Features.

22. USA Location, Governance, US Export Laws. The Sites and the Service are owned and operated by RAIINMAKER in the United States and governed by the state and federal laws of the United States. The Sites are therefore intended for access only from, and use by residents of, the United States. If you are a resident of, or access the Sites from, a jurisdiction outside the United States, the laws of your jurisdiction may be more or less strict than the laws that apply to these Sites and you therefore do so at your own risk and are responsible for compliance with all applicable laws of such jurisdiction. We make no representation that the Sites or Sites’ content is appropriate or available for use in other locations, and access to them from territories where their content is illegal is prohibited. You may not use or export any of the Sites content in violation of United States export laws and regulations. Those who choose to access the Sites, and/or the Service from locations outside the United States do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
23. User Postings on the Sites. The Sites may provide users with the ability to post feedback, Fan-Art, messages or testimonials on the Sites. RAIINMAKER is under no obligation to review any messages; information or content (“Postings”) posted on the Sites by users and assumes no responsibility or liability relating to any Postings. Notwithstanding the above, RAIINMAKER may from time to time monitor the Postings on the Sites and may remove any Postings at its sole discretion. You grant other users of the Sites permission to access, use, record, reproduce, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, and prepare derivative works of your Postings in any medium (whether now known or later developed). We do not guarantee any confidentiality with respect to any Postings that you may submit, upload, post or otherwise provide to the Sites, and it is your responsibility to protect any rights that you may have in your Postings.
Please also be aware that any personally identifiable information that you choose to include in your Postings for publication on the Sites will not be protected, except as maybe set forth in our Privacy Policy. If RAIINMAKER has provided you with any free or discounted product or other item of value (other than sales and discounts available to the general public), you agree to disclose the value received in your Postings in compliance with Section 5 of the U.S. Federal Trade Commission Act.
24. Submitted Content. RAIINMAKER does not claim ownership of any materials of the Postings you make available through the Sites. At RAIINMAKER’s sole discretion, such materials in the Postings may be included in the Service in whole or in part or in a modified form. With respect to such materials in the Postings you submit or make available for inclusion on the Sites, you grant RAIINMAKER a perpetual, irrevocable, non-terminable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up and non-exclusive license to use, copy, distribute, publicly perform, display, modify, create derivative works, and sublicense such materials in the Postings or any part of such materials and Postings. You hereby represent and warrant: that any materials or Postings you provide do not include anything (including, but not limited to, text, images, music or video) to which you do not have the full right to grant the license specified above in this Section entitled “Submitted Content”. You also grant us the right, but not the obligation, to use your name, likeness, and identity in connection with your materials and Postings. You voluntarily waive all so-called “moral rights” or similar rights you may have in your materials and Postings.
23. Children. The Sites and the Service are not directed toward children under 13 years of age nor does RAIINMAKER knowingly collect information from children under 13 or allow them to create an account or access account features. The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) of 1998 provides safeguards to protect children who use the Internet by regulating the online collection of personal information from children under the age of 13. To ensure compliance with this law, RAIINMAKER does not knowingly collect or maintain information provided by children under the age of 13 unless expressly authorized by a parent or legal guardian. RAIINMAKER does not sell products, services or other activities by or for purchase by children, and we ask that minors (under the age of 13) do not submit any personal information to us. If we learn that we have inadvertently collected personal information from a child, we will make all reasonable efforts to delete that data from our records.
24. Disclaimer of Warranties.
The Sites and Service are provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis for your use, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including without limitation the warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and those arising from course of dealing or usage of trade. RAIINMAKER makes no warranty as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of any content available through, or the performance of, the Sites or the Service. You are responsible for verifying any information before relying on it. Use of the Sites and/or the Service is at your sole risk. RAIINMAKER does not warrant that you will be able to access or use the Sites and/or Service at the times or locations of your choosing; that the Sites or the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free; that defects will be corrected; or that the Sites or the Service are free of viruses or other harmful components.
Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of implied warranties, the foregoing disclaimer may not apply to you.
25. Limitation of Liability; Sole and Exclusive Remedy.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, RAIINMAKER, its affiliates, licensors and business partners or any of their shareholders, directors, officers, employees or licensors (collectively, the “Related Parties”) disclaim all liability (jointly or severally), whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, and further disclaims all losses, including without limitation direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or special damages arising out of or in any way connected with access to or use of the Sites and/or Service, even if RAIINMAKER and/or Related Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Without limiting the foregoing, in no case will the liability of RAIINMAKER or any of the Related Parties exceed the amount that you paid to us or our designees during the 6 months prior to the time the cause of action giving rise to liability arose or $100, whichever amount is less.
RAIINMAKER will not be responsible or liable, under any circumstances, for any loss, liability, expenses or damages incurred in connection with the Site and/or the Service to the extent caused by or resulting from: (a) your acts, defaults or omissions (your misplacing, misusing or forgetting your membership email account address and/or password(s)) in connection with any Reward Redemption or otherwise; (b) your violation of any of any term, condition, representation or warranty contained in this TOU; or (c) acts or omissions of third parties, including third parties contracted by RAIINMAKER.
Because some states or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, the liability of RAIINMAKER and its affiliates shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by law.
26. Indemnification. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold RAIINMAKER and the Related Parties harmless from any and all claims, demands, damages or other losses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, and court costs, resulting from or arising out of your use of the Sites and/or the Service or any breach by you of this TOU (including without limitation Section 25 above), our Privacy Policy or any other policies that RAIINMAKER may issue for the Sites and/or Service from time to time.
27. Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This TOU is governed by, and will be construed under, the laws of the United States of America and the law of the State of Wyoming, without regard to conflict of law principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. Except as expressly provided below (and claims proceeding in any small claims court), all disputes arising out of or related to your use of the Sites and/or the Service shall be subject to binding arbitration as provided in paragraph 28. To the extent any matter is excluded from arbitration as set forth below, all such disputes, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Cheyenne, Wyoming, and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts. You and RAIINMAKER agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the Sites or Services must commence within 1 year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
28. Binding Arbitration.
28.1 Arbitration Procedures. If you are a Raiinmaker member in the United States (including its possessions and territories), you and Raiinmaker agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Raiinmaker Service, these Terms of Use and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration or in small claims court. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. 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. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award and nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall be interpreted as limiting any non-waivable statutory rights. You agree that, by agreeing to these Terms of Use, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Raiinmaker are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your Raiinmaker membership.
