11. GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION
RCI operates this Web Site (excluding Linked Sites, over which it has no authority
or control) from its offices within the State of New Jersey (which may be subject
to change from time to time at RCI's sole discretion). The Web Site can be accessed
from all 50 states, as well as from other countries around the world. As each of
these places has laws that may differ from those of New Jersey, by accessing this
Web Site, you agree that these Terms and your use of the Web Site shall be governed
in all respect by the internal substantive laws of the State of New Jersey, without
regard to any conflict of laws provisions, and shall not be governed by the United
Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods. You further agree to submit
to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts located
in the State of New Jersey for all disputes, cases and controversies regarding this
Web Site, your use of this Web Site, and your relationship with RCI. RCI makes no
representation that materials on this Web Site are appropriate or available for
use in other locations, and accessing them from territories where the Content is
illegal is prohibited. Those who choose to access this Web Site from other locations
do so at their own risk and are responsible for compliance with local laws, including
laws regarding the transmission of technical data exported from the United States
or the country in which you reside.
12. INDEMNIFICATION
RCI reserves the right to report any wrongdoing, if and when it becomes aware of
it, to any applicable government or law enforcement agencies. You agree to indemnify,
defend and hold RCI and the Providers, its and their officers, directors, employees,
affiliated or related entities, agents, licensors, and suppliers, harmless from
and against any and all claims, demands, actions, costs, liabilities, losses and
damages of any kind (including attorneys' fees) resulting from your use of this
Web Site, your breach of any provision of these Terms and/or any negligent acts,
omissions or intentional wrongdoing by You. Any such indemnification shall be conditioned
on RCI: (a) notifying you in writing of any such claim, demand, action, cost, liability,
loss or threat of any thereof; (b) cooperating with you in the defense or settlement
thereof; and (c) allowing you to control such defense or settlement. RCI shall be
entitled to participate in such defense at its own cost and expense.
13. MESSAGE BOARDS
In the event that RCI provides message boards, web logs or blogs, or discussion
forums on this Web Site (the "Forums"), you agree to use the Forums
only for personal purposes in a noncommercial manner. You shall not, without RCI's
express approval, distribute or otherwise publish any material containing any solicitation
of funds, advertising, or written solicitation for goods and services. You agree
that any uploaded materials may be republished without compensation to you or any
other person or entity. In addition, you warrant that all moral rights in any uploaded
materials have been waived. While RCI does not and cannot review every message posted
by you or any other user in the Forums, and although RCI is not responsible for
these messages, RCI reserves the right (but not the obligation) to delete, move,
or edit messages that it, in its sole discretion, deems abusive, defamatory, obscene,
in violation of copyright or trademark laws, in violation of these terms, or otherwise
unacceptable. RCI does not endorse any information that may be posted on this Web
Site through the Forums. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated
with, the use of any messages, information, or Content associated with the Forums,
including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of such messages,
information, or Content. In this regard, you acknowledge that you may not rely on
any Content RCI creates or information submitted to RCI by third parties, including
without limitation, information in the Forums, and in all other parts of this Web
Site.
14. OTHER GENERAL PROVISIONS
These Terms are for the benefit of RCI and the Providers, its and their officers,
directors, employees, affiliated or related entities, agents, licensors, and suppliers.
Each of these individuals or entities shall have the right to assert and enforce
these Terms directly against you on its (or their own) behalf. RCI's failure to
act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive RCI's right to act
with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision
will be struck and the remaining provisions enforced. Headings are for reference
purposes only.
You and RCI are dealing at arms' length, creating a commercial relationship. RCI
is not your Agent or your fiduciary. Many of RCI's businesses and facilities may
be independently owned and operated by independent franchisees and licensees. In
such cases, these franchisees and licensees manage and operate the facilities, and
they are the employers of all employees and contractors who work at the facilities.
These franchisees are independent contractors, and no agency, partnership, joint
venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or
created by these Terms.
The provisions and conditions of these Terms, and each obligation referenced herein,
represent the entire Agreement between RCI (including the Providers), its affiliated
or related entities, and You, and supersede any prior agreements or understandings
not incorporated herein. In the event that any inconsistencies exist between these
Terms and any future published terms of use or understanding, the last published
Terms shall prevail.
ANY RIGHTS NOT EXPRESSED GRANTED HEREIN ARE RESERVED BY RCI.
