If you believe that the User-Submitted Materials on the Services that you provided have been improperly removed pursuant to a removal request because they are not infringing, such as because you have authorization from the actual copyright owner or the owner’s agent and/or because you have the right to license us to store and display the User-Submitted Materials you provide under applicable law, you may send a written counter-notice to the contact details described above with the subject line “DMCA Counter-Notice: [name of allegedly infringing NFT/collection]”, and the following information:

5.3 Repeat Infringer Policy Rarity.Tools reserves the right to terminate a user account (if applicable) and/or a user’s ability to submit additional listings to Rarity.Tools if such user (or the entity they represent) is a repeat infringer or is repeatedly charged with infringement due to requests delivered in accordance with Section 5.1.

EXCEPT TO THE LIMITED EXTENT OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW (IF APPLICABLE), IN NO EVENT SHALL RARITY.TOOLS OR OWNERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, OR ANY OTHER DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOSS OF DATA, WHETHER IN AN ACTION IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE OUR SERVICES OR TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY DAMAGES CAUSED BY OR RESULTING FROM RELIANCE BY ANY USER ON ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM RARITY.TOOLS, OR THAT RESULT FROM MISTAKES, OMISSIONS, INTERRUPTIONS, DELETION OF FILES OR EMAIL, ERRORS, DEFECTS, VIRUSES, DELAYS IN OPERATION OR TRANSMISSION OR ANY FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE, WHETHER OR NOT RESULTING FROM A FORCE MAJEURE EVENT, COMMUNICATIONS FAILURE, THEFT, DESTRUCTION OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO RARITY.TOOLS’ RECORDS, PROGRAMS OR SERVICES. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages. Accordingly, some of the limitations of this section may not apply to you.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF RARITY.TOOLS AND OUR OWNERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND AFFILIATES, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, WARRANTY, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, WHETHER ACTIVE, PASSIVE OR IMPUTED), PRODUCT LIABILITY, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHER THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICES OR TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THESE TERMS EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY YOU TO RARITY.TOOLS IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE OF ANY CLAIM GIVING RISE TO SUCH LIABILITY.

You shall not settle any claim or admit any fault or liability without our prior written consent in each instance.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH US AND IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF.
You and Rarity.Tools agree to arbitrate any dispute arising from these Terms or your use of the Services, except for disputes in which either party seeks equitable and other relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents. ARBITRATION PREVENTS YOU FROM SUING IN COURT OR FROM HAVING A JURY TRIAL. You and Rarity.Tools agree to notify each other in writing of any dispute within thirty (30) days of when it arises. Notice to Rarity.Tools shall be sent to contact@rarity.tools. You and Rarity.Tools further agree: (a) to attempt informal resolution prior to any demand for arbitration; (b) that any arbitration will occur in San Francisco, California; (c) that arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of JAMS; and (d) that the state or federal courts in San Francisco, California have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals of an arbitration award and over any suit between the parties not subject to arbitration. Other than class procedures and remedies discussed below, the arbitrator has the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court. Any dispute between the parties will be governed by these Terms and the laws of the State of California and applicable United States law, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. Whether the dispute is heard in arbitration or in court, you and Rarity.Tools will not commence against the other a class action, class arbitration or representative action or proceeding.
