LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

IN NO EVENT SHALL PBI, OR ANY OF ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, LICENSORS, PROVIDERS, THIRD PARTY PARTNERS, ANYONE WHO HELPED DEVELOP, CREATE, PRODUCE, DISPLAY, TRANSMIT OR DELIVER OUR CONTENT, MATERIAL OR INFORMATION USED IN THE PLATFORMS OR PBI PRODUCTS, OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES OR SUBSIDIARIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, TREBLE, ENHANCED, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, THOSE RESULTING FROM LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA OR INACCESSIBLE DATA, LOSS OF PRIVACY, BREACH OF DATA OR DATA SECURITY, COSTS OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION), OR ANY DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, EVEN IF PBI HAS BEEN PREVIOUSLY ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

IN NO EVENT SHALL PBI’S LIABILITY FOR DIRECT DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE PBI PRODUCTS, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY PRODUCT, CONTENT OR OTHER MATERIALS OFFERED OR MADE AVAILABLE ON THE PLATFORMS, EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100). You agree that this limitation of liability represents a reasonable allocation of risk and is a fundamental element of the basis of the bargain between you and PBI. The PBI Products would not be provided without such limitations.

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, so the above limitations may not apply to you.

PBI will not provide any prior notice to price changes for products that aren't on an automatic recurring or subscription basis model. PBI will not incur any obligation as a result of such change. By continuing to accept PBI Products after we have notified you of a change to any terms, you will be deemed to have accepted any changes.

PRODUCT WARNINGS

CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN. The risk of injury from using the PBI Products is significant, and includes the potential for catastrophic injury and/or even death. You should and must consult your physician before using any PBI Product. You should also see your physician immediately if you feel chest or stomach pain, nausea, dizziness, palpitations, or are having breathing difficulties.

LISTEN TO YOUR BODY. Not all exercise products and programs are suitable for everyone. Using PBI Products may involve strenuous activity, so learning and practicing the proper use and care of any PBI Product is imperative. Always listen to your own body and take breaks, modify movements, or stop your workouts as necessary. Stop exercising immediately if you experience discomfort or pain.

READ ALL ACCOMPANYING MATERIALS. Familiarize yourself with all safety and instructional materials prior to using any PBI Product. Read, understand, and follow all specific warnings and instructions contained in the Product literature when using any PBI Product.

TAKE IT EASY. Begin each exercise slowly, especially if you are new to exercise or out of condition, in order to safely build coordination, strength and stamina. This will also help you to learn proper form, balance and coordination. Breathe naturally; do not hold your breath during exercise. Never over-exert yourself or perform a move to the point at which you feel you may lose balance or control.

BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS. Only exercise or use any PBI Product on a clear, even surface, after you have removed all obstructive materials and sharp objects from the area. Remove all jewelry, including rings, chains, and pins, before using any PBI Product. Always wear suitable clothing when exercising.

ASSUMPTION OF THE RISK

By buying, using, providing, or allowing the use of the PBI Products, including without limitation any and all goods, products or services, YOU EXPRESSLY AND VOLUNTARILY ASSUME THE RISK OF ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INJURIES THAT COULD BE SUSTAINED (AND EVEN THE RISK OF DEATH), whether or not caused by negligence or other fault of PBI, including but not limited to, equipment malfunction from whatever cause, or any other fault of PBI.

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless PBI, (including, without limitation, all related and affiliated entities and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents and representatives, and each of their respective successors and assigns) from and against any and all claims, actions, losses, damages, liabilities, expenses, costs or demands, including, but not limited to, reasonable legal fees and expenses, for all damages directly or indirectly resulting or allegedly resulting from (i) your use, misuse, or inability to use the Platforms, Our Content or any PBI Products offered or made available on the Platforms, (ii) your breach or violation of any of these Terms of Use, (iii) Your Content or Comments (as defined below), (iv) any inaccurate or incomplete data or any Harmful Code transmitted by you, (v) any violation of applicable laws, rules or regulations by you or Your Content or Comments, and (vi) your order cancellation for products, goods or services, including but not limited to, the cost of special materials, the cost of custom or non-stock products completed or in process, and any reasonable costs incurred to collect such losses from you. PBI shall promptly notify you in writing of any such claim or suit, and cooperate fully (at your expense) in the defense of such claim or suit. If PBI does not hear from you promptly, PBI reserves the right to defend such claim or suit and seek full recompense from you. Without limitation of the foregoing, you may not settle, compromise, or dispose of any claim in any other manner without our express written consent. Your obligation to indemnify and defend PBI as set forth in this section shall include reimbursement of any and all legal fees and related costs and expenses incurred by PBI in connection with any such claim.

COMMENTS

From time to time, PBI may request your feedback or suggestions, including any ideas, comments, recommendations or the like (collectively, “Comments”). To the extent you submit Comments to PBI, such Comments will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary. Furthermore, any disclosure, submission or offer of any Comments shall constitute an assignment to us of all worldwide right, title and interest in all patent, copyright, trademark and all other intellectual property and other rights whatsoever in and to the Comments and a waiver of any claim based on moral, publicity or privacy rights, unfair competition, breach of implied contract, breach of confidentiality and any other legal theory. You agree, at our cost, to execute any documents to effect, record or perfect such assignment. Thus, we will own exclusively all such right, title and interest in, and shall not be limited in any way in the use, commercial or otherwise, of any Comments. You should not submit any Comments to us if you do not wish to assign such rights to us. We are and will be under no obligation: (i) to maintain any Comments in confidence; (ii) to pay to you or any third party any compensation for any Comments; or (iii) to respond to any Comments. You are and shall remain solely responsible for any Comments you make or provide to us.

CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

From time to time in the course of using the Platforms, you may have access to certain confidential information of PBI (“PBI Confidential Information”). For clarity, as used in these Terms of Use, “PBI Confidential Information” means all nonpublic or proprietary information disclosed by or on behalf of PBI, otherwise learned by you in the course of using the Platforms, which is (i) designated as confidential or proprietary; or (ii) a reasonable person would conclude is confidential or proprietary. PBI Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, the following (whether furnished before or after you start using the Platforms, whether disclosed orally, electronically, in writing or visual inspection of the Platforms): (a) graphics and content of the Platforms; (b) information relating to PBI’s products, plans, specifications, designs, formulas, ideas, inventions, know-how, processes, techniques, practices, methodologies, policies and procedures, manuals and handbooks, testing, research and development; (c) information regarding acquiring, protecting, enforcing and licensing PBI’s proprietary rights including intellectual property rights; (d) information relating to PBI’s financials, employees, manufacturing and other supply partners, customers; and (e) any and all copies, reproductions, notes, analyses, compilations, studies, interpretations and summaries of any of the above items, regardless of who prepares them. Notwithstanding the foregoing, PBI Confidential Information does not include any information that you can demonstrate by documentary evidence (1) is or has become publicly available through no wrongful act or omission attributable to you; (2) is or becomes rightfully known to you through a third party who is not subject to a restriction on disclosure; or (3) is independently developed by you without the use of or reference to PBI Confidential Information.

You agree not to use PBI Confidential Information for any purpose other than as required to use the Platforms in accordance with these Terms of Use (the "Purpose"). You agree to hold all PBI Confidential Information in strict confidence using at least the degree of care you would use to protect your most sensitive information and in no event less than a reasonable degree of care. You agree to not publish, disseminate, or otherwise disclose, or permit or facilitate the disclosure of, any PBI Confidential Information to any third party. To the extent required for the Purpose as authorized by PBI in writing, you may disclose PBI Confidential Information only to your employees, directors, officers and agents ("Representatives") who have a need to know such information to carry out the Purpose and are bound to obligations of confidentiality (either by written agreement or applicable law) which are no less restrictive than those set forth in these Terms of Use. You agree to be responsible for all acts and omissions of your Representatives. Any copy, extract, portion, or derivative of PBI Confidential Information shall be identified as belonging to PBI and prominently marked "confidential."

INTERNATIONAL USERS

The Platforms are controlled, operated, and administered by PBI from its offices within the U.S. PBI makes no representation or warranty that the materials contained within the Platforms are appropriate or available for use at other locations outside of the U.S., and access to the Platforms from territories where the content or products available through the Platforms are illegal is prohibited. If you access the Platforms from a location outside of the U.S., you are responsible for compliance with any and all local laws, rules, regulations and ordinances. You may not use the Platforms or export the Content or PBI Products in violation of U.S. export laws and regulations. PBI may limit the availability of the Platforms to any person, geographic area, or jurisdiction it chooses, at any time in PBI’s sole discretion.

DIGITAL MILLENNIUM COPYRIGHT ACT NOTICE

Except as expressly provided above, nothing contained herein shall be construed as conferring any license or right under any copyright or any other intellectual property right. It is our policy to respond appropriately to notices of alleged infringement that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (“DMCA”), including by removing or disabling access to material claimed to be the subject of infringing activity. If you are an owner of intellectual property who believes that your intellectual property has been improperly posted or distributed via the Platforms, please notify us immediately by email to PBI’s agent regarding copyright matters at info@steelfitusa.com or by U.S. mail to Performance Brands, Inc., 905 Shotgun Rd., Sunrise, FL 33326. DMCA notices must be in writing and must include all of the following information:

  1. a physical or electronic signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive copyright that is allegedly infringed;
  2. a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed;
  3. a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Platforms or as part of any PBI Product;
  4. your address, telephone number, and email address and all other information reasonably sufficient to permit PBI to contact you;
  5. a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
  6. a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP

It is possible that PBI and/or any of our assets may be acquired by an unrelated third party. In such a transaction, we may be required to disclose or sell any information you provide via the Platforms as an asset of the company in conjunction with the sale of our company or the sale of a portion of our assets to a third party. While we will endeavor to require the successor company to maintain these Terms of Use, we cannot guarantee that our Terms of Use will remain in effect.

MODIFICATIONS TO AND DISCONTINUATION OF AVAILABILITY OF PBI PRODUCTS

PBI reserves the right at any time, and from time to time, to modify, terminate or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the PBI Products or their availability (or any portion thereof including any Content) with or without notice, at its sole discretion. You agree that PBI shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the PBI Products.

GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION

You and PBI agree that in the event of any claim, dispute or controversy (whether in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of, relating to or connected in any way with your use of any of the PBI Products or the breach, enforcement, interpretation or validity of these Terms of Use (each, a “Claim”), the Claim will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration, except as otherwise provided in these Terms of Use. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit and uses a neutral arbitrator to resolve the Claim rather than a jury. Arbitration is subject to limited review by courts but arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. YOU AND PBI ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each of the parties may bring an action in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of a party’s intellectual property.

You and PBI agree to use good faith efforts to resolve any Claims within thirty (30) days following written notice by either party that a Claim has arisen. If the parties cannot resolve the Claim within such time period, then the Claim shall be determined by a single arbitrator. Alternatively, if it is determined or these Terms of Use provide that a Claim should not proceed through arbitration, each of you and PBI agree that the Claim will be resolved exclusively in federal court in the County of Broward (the “Venue”) and waive any objections as to personal jurisdiction in the Venue. The then-current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures shall apply. All fees charged shall be split equally by you and PBI, but each party shall be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees. If the Claim is less than $10,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration conducted solely on the basis of the documents submitted to the arbitrator. You hereby acknowledge and agree that PBI may effect service of process by email to the address provided by you to PBI. Each of the parties waives the right to personal service.

You and PBI agree that all Claims will be governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict of laws principles and the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA). Any Claims must be raised within one (1) year after the event which gives rise to the Claim and may only be brought in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. You agree that, to the extent permitted by law: (a) any and all Claims will be resolved individually in the Venue designated above, without resort to any form of class action; and (b) any judgments and awards will be limited to actual third-party, out-of-pocket costs incurred, but in no event will attorneys’ fees be awarded or recoverable.

GENERAL
