The relationship between Fans, Creators, and Channl
Channl is an online platform that connects Creators with their Fans. A Creator is a person (or group of people, company, association, partnership, or other form of undertaking, or their representative) who creates and/or distributes creative, cultural, or other content, or otherwise engages with supporters of their activities. Fans are people who seek to engage with or follow the activities of a Creator, including to purchase content from them or otherwise provide financial support for their activities. Channl provides an online platform which facilitates many forms of interaction by and between Creators and Fans, including processing financial transactions associated with that interaction. Channl acts as an intermediary platform, and is not responsible for the activities of any Creators, Fans, or any other third parties on the platform, or any interactions between them, whether financial or otherwise.

You further acknowledge and agree that Channl will not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with the Creator’s use of such Fan Information. We may use your personal information to recommend to you other Creators on our platform, or content they create, which we believe that you may find interesting.
Fan Personal Information – Use by Creators: In connection with certain features of the Service, including requiring that Fans provide Creators with their email addresses and other personal information to access the free download option, you may collect certain types of Fan Information. Creators acknowledge and agree that they will not disclose, rent, or sell any Fan Information to any third party.

Creators further agree that any email or other communication sent to the Creator’s mailing list or in connection with the Creator Subscription will comply with email marketing laws and include a mechanism by which the recipient can unsubscribe from the mailing list, along with clear instructions on how to do so (i.e., a functioning “opt-out” mechanism).

The parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the United States Federal Courts or state courts located in Los Angeles, California.
13 Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
Since Channl is not the buyer or seller in any transaction between you and a Creator, and is not the agent of either party for any purpose, Channl does not have the duty to resolve any disputes between participants related to or arising out of any Purchase. Creators are individually responsible for compliance with all consumer rights laws applicable to their sales, including EU and UK Consumer Rights Laws.
Pre-arbitration dispute resolution: For any and all disputes, claims, or controversies you may have against lfgdraft, and/or Channl (“Disputes”), whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting us through this email address: legal@channl.com with the following information: (1) your name, (2) your address and email address, (3) a written description of your claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief you seek. If we do not resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days after receiving your notification, then you may pursue resolution of the Dispute in arbitration.
Binding Arbitration:Any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement will be finally settled by arbitration in Los Angeles County, California, using the English language, in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect. The arbitration will be conducted by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. The prevailing party in the arbitration will be entitled to reimbursement of its reasonable expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, and all other expenses) incurred in connection with the arbitration. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in a court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such a court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as applicable. Channl will have the sole right, at its discretion, to join together similar disputes for joint arbitration. Notwithstanding the above, each party will have the right to institute an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief pending a final decision by the arbitrator.
14. Integration and Severability.
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you, lfgdraft, and Channl with respect to the Service and use of the Site, superseding all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written, or electronic) between you, lfgdraft, and Channl regarding the Site. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. The failure of either party to exercise any right provided will not be deemed a waiver of any further rights.
15. Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will provide at least 30 days' notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion. By continuing to access or use our Site after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms.
