Terms of Use

Welcome to arborventures.com. Please read on to learn the rules and restrictions that govern your use of our website(s) and application(s) (the “Services”). If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding these terms or the Services, please contact us at info@arborventures.com.

These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) are a binding contract between you and Arbor Venture Management Company (“Arbor Ventures,” “we” and “us”). You must agree to and accept all of the Terms, or you don’t have the right to use the Services; your using the Services means that you agree to all of these Terms. These Terms include the provisions in this document, as well as those in our Privacy Policy. The Services may change, so these Terms may need to change as well. We reserve the right to change the Terms at any time. If you don’t agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is effective, that means you agree to all of the changes.

3. Content Ownership And Licenses

The materials displayed or performed or available on or through the Services, including, but not limited to, text, graphics, data, articles, photos, images, illustrations, and so forth (all of the foregoing, the “Content”) are protected by copyright and/or other intellectual property laws. You promise to abide by all copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and restrictions contained in any Content you access through the Services, and you won’t use, copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content not owned by you, (i) without the prior consent of the owner of that Content or (ii) in a way that violates someone else’s (including Arbor Ventures’) rights. You understand that Arbor Ventures owns the Services. You won’t modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce, create derivative works based on, or commercially exploit any of the Services. If you contact us or provide us (in a direct email or otherwise) with any feedback, suggestions, improvements, enhancements, and/or feature requests relating to the Services (each of the foregoing, a “User Submission”), then you grant Arbor Ventures a license to use and exercise all rights in that User Submission, in connection with the Services and/or otherwise in connection with Arbor Ventures’ and its affiliates’ business(es).

The Services may contain links or connections to third party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Arbor Ventures, which may include those that are operated by portfolio companies of Arbor Ventures or its affiliates. When you access third party websites or use third party services, you accept that there are risks in doing so, and that Arbor Ventures is not responsible for such risks, regardless of whether or not Arbor Ventures or its affiliates has an investment relationship with the entity offering such site(s) or service(s). We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Services and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each third party website or service that you visit or utilize.

Arbor Ventures has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of or opinions expressed in any third party websites or by any third party that you interact with through the Services. In addition, Arbor Ventures will not and cannot monitor, verify, censor or edit the content of any third party site or service.

By using the Services, you release and hold us harmless from any and all liability arising from your use of any third party website or service.

4. Miscellaneous

Warranty Disclaimer. The Services and Content are provided by Arbor Ventures (and its licensors and suppliers) on an “as-is” basis, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, without limitation, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose.

Limitation of Liability. To the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, under no circumstances and under no legal theory (including, without limitation, tort, contract, strict liability, or otherwise) shall Arbor Ventures (or its licensors, suppliers or affiliates) be liable to you or to any other person for (a) any indirect, special, incidental, or consequential damages of any kind, including damages for lost profits, loss of goodwill, work stoppage, accuracy of results, or computer failure or malfunction or (b) any matter beyond our reasonable control. Some U.S. states and other countries do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so the above limitation and exclusions may not apply to you.

Indemnity. You agree to indemnify and hold Arbor Ventures, its affiliates, officers, agents, employees, and partners harmless from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages (actual and consequential), losses and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to any third party claims relating to your violation of these Terms.

Miscellaneous. You may not assign, delegate or transfer these Terms or your rights or obligations hereunder in any way (by operation of law or otherwise) without Arbor Ventures’ prior written consent. We may transfer, assign, or delegate these Terms and our rights and obligations without consent. These Terms are governed by and will be construed under the laws of Singapore, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof. For all purposes of this Agreement, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the courts located in Singapore. 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 shall otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. There are no third party beneficiaries intended under these Terms. These Terms are the only agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein; provided, however, that these Terms do not supersede any other agreements we may have with you with respect to different subject matter. Except for changes to the Terms by us (as described herein), no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.
