If you do not agree with any of these Terms of Service, including the Privacy Policy incorporated herein, please do not use our Services. By accessing or using any of our Services you will be deemed to have irrevocably agreed to these Terms of Service. Some areas of our Services may be subject to additional terms and conditions, which you should read carefully before making any use of those areas. Such additional terms will not change or replace these Terms of Service unless otherwise expressly stated. Note that in some instances, both these Terms of Service and separate additional terms or licenses, guidelines, rules or terms of service will apply to your use of some Services offered and/or operated by NBC Sports Gold, including, without limitation, our Subscription Agreement (in each such instance, and collectively, “Additional Terms”). These Additional Terms will be posted in connection with the applicable Services and will be in addition to these Terms of Service. Where any direct conflict exists between these Terms of Service, or any Additional Terms, and the applicable Privacy Policy, the terms of the Privacy Policy shall take precedence. However, provisions unique to these Terms of Service (e.g., arbitration) will remain in effect as provided here. You must have (and, by using our Services, you warrant that you have) the legal capacity to enter into the agreement set out in these Terms of Service (i.e., that you are of sufficient age and mental capacity and are otherwise entitled to be legally bound in contract). EACH TIME YOU ACCESS OR OTHERWISE USE OUR SERVICES YOU ARE ENTERING INTO A NEW AGREEMENT WITH US ON THE THEN-APPLICABLE TERMS OF SERVICE AND YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY NOTIFY YOU OF OTHER TERMS BY POSTING THEM ON THIS SITE OR VIA OUR APPLICABLE SERVICES (OR IN ANY OTHER REASONABLE MANNER OF NOTICE WHICH WE ELECT), AND THAT YOUR USE OF OUR SERVICES AFTER SUCH NOTICE CONSTITUTES YOUR GOING FORWARD AGREEMENT TO THE OTHER TERMS FOR YOUR NEW USE AND TRANSACTIONS. Therefore, you should review the posted Terms of Service and any applicable Additional Terms each time you use our Services (or at the very least prior to each transaction or submission). The Additional Terms will be effective as to new use and transactions as of the time that we post them, or such later date as may be specified in them or in other notice to you. However, the Terms of Service (and any applicable Additional Terms) that applied when you previously used our Services will continue to apply to such prior use (i.e., changes and additions are prospective only) except as mutually agreed. In the event any notice to you of any new, revised or additional terms and conditions is determined by a tribunal to be insufficient, the prior agreement shall continue until sufficient notice to establish a new agreement occurs. You can reject any new, revised or additional Terms of Service by discontinuing use of our Services.

    . Wireless and Location-Based Features; Social Media Plug-ins Wireless Features. Our Services may offer certain features and services that are available to you via your wireless Device. These features and services may include the ability to access our Services’ features and upload content to our Services, receive messages from our Services, and download applications to your wireless Device (collectively, “Wireless Features”). Your carrier may prohibit or restrict certain Wireless Features and certain Wireless Features may be incompatible with your carrier or wireless Device. In addition, your carrier may charge you for standard messaging, data, and other fees to participate in Wireless Features. Fees and charges may appear on your wireless bill or be deducted from your pre-paid balance. We have no responsibility or liability for any fees or charges you incur when using Wireless Features. You should check with your carrier to find out whether any fees or charges will apply, what plans are available and how much they cost. You should also contact your carrier with any other questions regarding these issues. Terms of Wireless Features. If you register for any Wireless Features then you agree that, in connection with those Wireless Features, we may send communications to your wireless Device regarding us or other parties. Further, we may collect information related to your use of the Wireless Features in accordance with our Privacy Policy. If you have registered via our Services for Wireless Features, then you agree to notify NBC Sports Gold of any changes to your wireless contact information (including phone number) and update your accounts on our Services to reflect any changes. Location-Based Features. For Services on mobile Devices (“Mobile Apps”) when you use one of our location-enabled Services, we may collect and process information about your actual location. Some of the Mobile Apps or Services require your location information for the feature to work. If you have enabled GPS, geo-location or other location-based features on a Device, you acknowledge that your Device location will be tracked and may be shared with others consistent with the Privacy Policy. In addition, where any Mobile App collects precise information about the location of your Devices, it will be used to provide requested location services, and, depending on the particular Mobile App, it may be used, amongst other uses, to allow tagging or to check-in. Some Mobile App(s) or feature(s) allow for you to disable location-based features or manage preferences related to them. However, you can terminate Device location tracking by us by uninstalling any Mobile App(s) or feature(s). The location-based services offered in connection with our Mobile App(s) or feature(s) are for individual use only and should not be used or relied on as an emergency locator system, used while driving or operating vehicles, or used in connection with any hazardous environments requiring fail-safe performance, or any other situation in which the failure or inaccuracy of use of the location-based services could lead directly to death, personal injury, or severe physical or property damage. The location-based services are not suited or intended for family finding purposes, fleet tracking, or any other type of business or enterprise use. Please see our Privacy Policy to find out more about how to opt out of providing location information or contact privacy@nbcuni.com. Social Media Plug-Ins. Social media plug-ins of social networks such as Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus (among others) may be integrated on our Services. Where our Services contain a plug-in to a social network, these are clearly marked (e.g. with a Facebook button). If you choose to click on one of these buttons or links, your browser connects directly to the servers of the relevant social network. The social network directly transmits the content of the plugin to your browser. If you are registered on the relevant social network and logged into your respective account the social network receives the information that the web page was used by you. If you interact with a social network plug-in (e.g., you press the Facebook “Like” feature, the Twitter “Tweet this” feature, Google Plus “1+” button, or equivalent) or drop a comment on the appropriate web page, the corresponding information is directly transmitted to the relevant social network from your browser. If you are not registered with the social network or you are logged out before you visit our Services, there is the possibility that at least your IP address will be submitted to and stored by the social network. If you interact with us through a social media platform, plug-in, etc., then you may be enabling us to have ongoing access to certain information from your social network profile (such as your name, social networking id page, e-mail address, photo, gender, location, the people/sites you follow, etc.). If you don’t want a social network to collect the information about you described above, or to share it with us and other third parties, please review the privacy policy of the relevant social network and/or log out of the relevant social network before you visit our Services. As with other sites, you may be able to delete any existing cookies placed on your computer by the social network via your browser. See Section 1 of our Privacy Policy to find out more about how our Services contain plug-ins to social media networks.

    25. Binding Arbitration of All Disputes; No Class Relief This Section 25 is deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. You and NBC Sports Gold agree that we intend that this Section 25 satisfies the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act. This Section 25 can only be amended by mutual agreement. For non-U.S. residents, if binding arbitration is adjudged by a tribunal to be unenforceable, the provisions of Section 26 below shall apply to all relevant disputes between you and us. We believe that arbitration is a faster, more convenient and less expensive way to resolve any disputes or disagreements that you may have with us. Therefore, pursuant to these Terms of Service, if you have any dispute or disagreement with us regarding (i) your use of or interaction with any of Services (including this Site), (ii) any purchases or other transactions or relationships with NBC Sports Gold made through our Services, or (iii) any data or information you may provide to NBC Sports Gold or that NBC Sports Gold may gather in connection with such use, interaction or transaction conducted through our Services (collectively, “NBC Sports Gold Transactions or Relationships”), you will not have the right to pursue a claim in court or have a jury decide the claim and you will not have the right to bring or participate in any class action or similar proceeding in court or in arbitration. By using or interacting with the Site or our other Services, or engaging in any other NBC Sports Gold Transactions or Relationships with us, you agree to binding arbitration as provided below. We will make every reasonable effort to informally resolve any complaints, disputes, or disagreements that you may have with us. By using our Services, you agree that, if those efforts fail, any complaint, dispute, or disagreement you may have against NBC Sports Gold, and any claim that NBC Sports Gold may have against you, arising out of, relating to, or connected in any way with these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, or any NBC Sports Gold Transactions or Relationships, shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration (“Arbitration”) administered by JAMS or its successor (“JAMS”) and conducted in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules And Procedures in effect at the time the Arbitration is initiated or, if the amount in controversy exceeds $100,000, in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules And Procedures then in effect (respectively, the “Applicable Rules”). The Applicable Rules can be found at www.jamsadr.com. If JAMS is no longer in existence, the Arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association or its successor (the “AAA”) instead, and conducted in accordance with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules in effect at that time (which shall be the “Applicable Rules” in such circumstances). If JAMS (or, if applicable, AAA) at the time the arbitration is filed has Consumer Arbitrations Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness or successor or analogous policies in effect which would be applicable to the matter in dispute (“Minimum Standards”), NBC Sports Gold agrees to provide the benefit of such Minimum Standards to you to the extent they are more favorable than the comparable arbitration provisions set forth in this Section 25, provided, however, that in no event may such Minimum Standards contravene or restrict the application of subpart (e) or (i) below. Furthermore, this Section 25 shall not prevent any party from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. You further agree that: A. Single Arbitrator. The Arbitration shall be conducted before a single arbitrator selected in accordance with the Applicable Rules or by mutual agreement between you and NBC Sports Gold (the “Arbitrator”); B. Arbitrator Will Interpret This Agreement. The Arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to the validity, interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms of Service and/or the arbitration provisions in this Section 25, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Service is void or voidable; C. Location of Arbitration. The Arbitration shall be held either: (i) at a location determined by JAMS (or, if applicable, AAA) pursuant to the Applicable Rules (provided that such location is reasonably convenient for you and does not require travel in excess of 100 miles from your home or place of business); or (ii) at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by you and NBC Sports Gold; or (iii) at your election, if the only claims in the arbitration are asserted by you and are for less than $10,000 in aggregate, by telephone or by written submission. D. Governing Law. The Arbitrator shall (i) apply internal laws of the State of New York consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations, or, to the extent (if any) that federal law prevails, shall apply the law of the U.S., irrespective of any conflict of law principles; (ii) entertain any motion to dismiss, motion to strike, motion for judgment on the pleadings, motion for complete or partial summary judgment, motion for summary adjudication, or any other dispositive motion consistent with New York or federal rules of procedure, as applicable; (iii) honor claims of privilege recognized at law; and (iv) have authority to award any form of legal or equitable relief; E. No Class Relief. The Arbitration can resolve only your and/or NBC Sports Gold’s individual claims, and the Arbitrator shall have no authority to entertain or arbitrate any claims on a class or representative basis, or to consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated; F. Written Award. The Arbitrator shall issue a written award supported by a statement of decision setting forth the Arbitrator’s complete determination of the dispute and the factual findings and legal conclusions relevant to it (an “Award”). Judgment upon the Award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets; G. Arbitration Costs. In the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of Arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, NBC Sports Gold will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the Arbitration as the Arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive, regardless of the outcome of the Arbitration, unless the Arbitrator determines that your claim(s) were frivolous or asserted in bad faith; H. Reasonable Attorney’s Fees. In the event you recover an Award greater than NBC Sports Gold’s last written settlement offer, the Arbitrator shall also have the right to include in the Award NBC Sports Gold’s reimbursement of your reasonable and actual out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees associated with the Arbitration, but NBC Sports Gold shall in all events bear its own attorneys’ fees; and I. Interpretation and Enforcement of Arbitration Clause. With the exception of subpart E above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Applicable Rules, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, subpart E is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor NBC Sports Gold shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute, and must instead bring any claims in a court of competent jurisdiction. Modification of Arbitration Clause with Notice. NBC Sports Gold may modify these arbitration provisions, but such modifications shall only become effective thirty (30) days after NBC Sports Gold has given notice of such modifications and only on a prospective basis for claims arising from NBC Sports Gold Transactions and Relationships occurring after the effective date of such notification. Small Claims Matters are Excluded; No Class Relief or Joinder of Claims. Notwithstanding the foregoing arbitration provisions, at your option, you may bring any claim you have against NBC Sports Gold in your local small claims court within the U.S. if your claim is within such court’s jurisdictional limit; provided, that such court does not have the authority to entertain any claims on a class or representative basis, or to consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated in such proceeding.

    26.

EACH TIME YOU ARE CHARGED FOR YOUR RENEWAL, THE RENEWAL CHARGE WILL BE THE SAME AS THE PRIOR PERIOD’S CHARGE, UNLESS (A) YOU PREVIOUSLY PURCHASED A MULTIPLE PERIOD PAYMENT PLAN, IN WHICH CASE YOUR RENEWAL CHARGE WILL BE A SINGLE CHARGE IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE FULL TERM SUBSCRIPTION PRICE; (B) YOU WERE ELIGIBLE FOR A DISCOUNTED RATE BUT ARE NO LONGER ELIGIBLE FOR THAT DISCOUNTED RATE, IN WHICH CASE YOUR RENEWAL CHARGE WILL BE IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE THEN-CURRENT FULL TERM REGULAR PRICE FOR THE PRODUCT YOU SUBCRIBED TO; OR (C) WE NOTIFY YOU IN ADVANCE AT THE TIME OF SIGN UP OR PRIOR TO THE BEGINNING OF THE RENEWAL PERIOD THAT YOUR RENEWAL PRICE WILL BE CHANGING, IN WHICH CASE YOUR RENEWAL CHARGE WILL BE IN AN AMOUNT EQUAL TO THE RENEWAL PRICE THAT YOU WERE NOTIFIED OF BY NBC SPORTS GOLD. IF YOU PURCHASED A SUBSCRIPTION WITH A FREE TRIAL PERIOD, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD OR OTHER ACCOUNT WHEN THE FREE TRIAL PERIOD ENDS, UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION BEFORE THE FREE TRIAL PERIOD ENDS, AND YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A NOTICE FROM US THAT YOUR FREE TRIAL PERIOD HAS ENDED. EACH TIME YOU USE OUR FEE-BASED PRODUCTS YOU REAFFIRM YOUR AGREEMENT THAT WE MAY CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD (OR OTHER FORM OF PAYMENT, IF APPLICABLE). IN THE EVENT WE CANNOT CHARGE YOUR ACCOUNT, WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO TERMINATE YOUR ACCESS TO OUR FEE-BASED PRODUCTS. IF YOU PURCHASED A MULTIPLE-PERIOD PREPAYMENT PLAN, YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE RENEWED AT THE SAME SUBSCRIPTION RATE AND FOR THE SAME SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD. IF YOU WERE ELIGIBLE FOR A DISCOUNTED RATE BUT ARE NO LONGER ELIGIBLE FOR THAT RATE, YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY BE RENEWED AT OUR STANDARD SUBSCRIPTION RATES AND FOR OUR STANDARD PERIOD (USUALLY MONTHLY) AT THE START OF THE RENEWAL PERIOD. B. In addition to the fees and charges set forth above, you are responsible for all charges and fees associated with connecting to our Fee-Based Products, including, without limitation, all telephone access lines (including long-distance charges, when applicable), content distributor fees, internet service provider fees, mobile fees, telephone and computer equipment, sales taxes and any other fees and charges necessary to access our Fee-Based Products. C. For purposes of your use of our Fee-Based Products, including identification and billing, you agree to provide the trusted third parties that we have retained to perform billing and subscription-related functions with true, accurate and complete information as required by the subscription or sign up process to our Fee-Based Products (“Subscription Data”), including your legal name, address, telephone number, e-mail address and applicable billing information (e.g., credit card number and expiration date), for the purpose of verifying the information you provide and billing your credit card or otherwise charging your account. You agree to maintain and promptly update the Subscription Data and any other information you provide to us to keep it accurate. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, if you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such is the case, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your user account or subscription and refuse any and all current or future use by you of any of our Fee-Based Products. You are obligated to check the “Account Settings” feature of our Services to determine whether your Subscription Data is current and accurate, and, if not, to correct or update your Subscription Data, including your billing information. You agree not to register or subscribe for more than one account, create an account on behalf of someone else, or create a false or misleading identity on any of the Fee-Based Products. If your registration or subscription is revoked for any reason, you agree not to register or subscribe to our Fee-Based Products using another user name or through any other means. If we have reason to suspect, in our sole discretion, that your account has previously been terminated, we reserve the right to terminate any new account(s) you have registered without any notice to you, or to exercise any other remedies available to us under this Agreement or by law. D. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and user account information. You must notify us immediately in the event of any known or suspected unauthorized use of your user account, or any known or suspected breach of security, including loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of your or anyone else’s password or credit card information. In the event of a breach of security by you, you will remain liable for any unauthorized use of your subscription until you update your Subscription Data. If your credit card expires, is canceled, is lost or is subject to use without your authorization, access the Account Settings feature of our Services to update your Subscription Data. You are entirely responsible for any and all activities which occur under your user account. E. Except for multiple-period prepayment plans (other than prepayment plans purchased via the NBC Sports Gold Services), your failure to satisfy limitations we set based on age, geographic or other criteria, or if we terminate your subscription to one of our Fee-Based Products prior to the end of the applicable period, you agree that all fees and charges assessed by us are nonrefundable. Nonrefundable fees include the full monthly fee for any month (or portion thereof) elapsed (regardless of whether you logged onto or used the Fee-Based Product during that month). If you subscribe to a prepayment plan for multiple periods (e.g., a 6-month prepayment plan) and you decide to cancel during such prepayment period, we will refund any unused portion of such period on a pro rata basis. If your cancellation of your subscription to one of our Fee-Based Products is due to your failure to satisfy limitations we set based on age, geographic or other criteria prior to the end of a period for which you have incurred a charge, with the exception of any fixed upfront fee, we will refund any unused portion of such period in accordance with the refund policy we have in effect at such time. If we cancel or terminate your subscription to one of our Fee-Based Products (as opposed to you canceling your subscription) prior to the end of a period for which you have incurred a charge, with the exception of any fixed upfront fee, we will refund any unused portion of such period on a pro rata basis. F. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, purchases made within a NBC Sports Gold mobile application downloaded from the Apple® iTunes store are not refundable and are subject to Apple’s iTunes Terms of Service. 4. Cancellation of Subscription Either you or NBC Sports Gold may terminate or cancel your subscription to our Fee-Based Products at any time. You understand and agree that the cancellation or termination of your subscription is your sole right and remedy with respect to any dispute with us including, without limitation, any dispute related to, or arising out of: (i) any terms of this Agreement or our enforcement or application of this Agreement; (ii) any practice or policy of NBC Sports Gold, including our Privacy Policy, or our enforcement or application of these policies; (iii) the content available through the Fee-Based Products or any change in content provided through our Services or on a Fee-Based Product; (iv) your ability to access and/or use our Services or any Fee-Based Product; or (v) the amount or types of our fees or charges, surcharges, applicable taxes, or billing methods, or any change to our fees or charges, applicable taxes, or billing methods. Upon cancellation or termination of your subscription to our Fee-Based Products, we may immediately deactivate your user account and all related information and/or files in your user account and/or bar any further access to such information and/or files, our Services (or part thereof) and/or our Fee-Based Products, except as we may otherwise provide in writing from time to time. You can cancel your subscription by contacting customer service or by such other means as we may provide from time to time. We will attempt to process all cancellation requests within 72 hours after we receive your request. If you cancel near the end of your billing period and are inadvertently charged for the next period’s fee, contact customer service to have the charges reversed. If you use our Fee-Based Product during that next period, you will not be entitled to a refund. We reserve the right to collect fees, surcharges, or costs incurred before your cancellation takes effect. 5. Availability of Fee-Based Products The availability and use of our Fee-Based Products may be limited based on age, geographic location or other criteria as we may establish from time to time. You understand and agree we may disallow you from subscribing to our Fee-Based Products or may terminate your subscription to our Fee-Based Products at any time based on these criteria. For example, individuals under the age of 18 may not subscribe to our Fee-Based Products. 6. Privacy and Security We are committed to protecting your privacy and security. For more information, you should review our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. 7. Automatically Become a Registered User As a subscriber to one of our Fee-Based Products, you automatically become a registered user of our Services, which provides you with access to certain products, offerings, features, or resources of our Services such as the ability to post messages on one of our Community Areas (such feature is not available to those who are not registered users). A “Community Area” means any blog, personal page, group page, chat room, message board, bulletin board, recipe swap, or similar activity where you can communicate with other users of our Services or post your own content. If you cancel your subscription to our Fee-Based Products, you will remain a registered user of our Services unless you specifically request otherwise. 8.

We may revoke your privileges to use all or a portion of the Fee-Based Products and/or take any other appropriate measures to enforce these community standards and conduct guidelines if violations are brought to our attention. Further, if you fail to adhere to our community standards and conduct guidelines, or any part of this Agreement, we may terminate, in our sole discretion, your use of, or participation in, any Community Area. Except as may otherwise be provided in our Privacy Policy, all Community Area communications, including, but not limited to, chat, message board, blog, groups, and profile communications, are public and not private communications.

You also warrant that, to the extent you are not the exclusive holder of all Rights in a Submission, any third party holder of any Rights, including moral rights in such Submissions, has completely and effectively waived all such rights and validly and irrevocably granted to you the right to grant the license stated above. You further acknowledge that NBC Sports Gold and its successors and assigns shall be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submissions for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to the provider of the Submissions.
