These Terms of Use do not apply to any other LG products or services, including SmartTVs.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF USE, YOU MAY NOT ACCESS OR USE THIS WEBSITE OR THE APP.

PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THE TERMS OF USE CONTAINS PROVISIONS OBLIGATING YOU AND LG TO RESOLVE DISPUTES THAT ARISE BETWEEN US, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTES THAT AROSE OR WERE ASSERTED PRIOR TO THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THE TERMS OF USE, THROUGH BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION. SECTION 19 CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT: (1) YOU MAY NOT BE A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR PROCEEDING AND (2) YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO PURSUE DISPUTES OR CLAIMS AND SEEK RELIEF IN A COURT OF LAW AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

LG reserves the right, at its own cost, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will fully cooperate with LG in asserting any available defenses. This provision does not require you to indemnify any of the Company Parties for any unconscionable commercial practice by such party or for such party’s fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, or suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Online Services. You agree that the provisions in this section will survive any termination of your LG Account, the Terms of Use and/or your access to the Online Services.

d. Basis of the Bargain. THE LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN LG AND YOU.

a. Term. The term of this agreement (the Terms of Use) commences on the earlier to occur of (a) the date you first used the Online Services or (b) the date you otherwise accepted the Terms of Use, and will remain in full force and effect while you use any Online Services, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the Terms of Use.

b. Termination of Services by LG. If timely payment cannot be charged to your Payment Provider for any reason, if you have materially breached any provision of the Terms of Use, or if Company is required to do so by law (e.g., where the provision of the Website, the App, or software is, or becomes, unlawful), LG has the right in its sole discretion to immediately, and without notice, suspend or terminate the Online Services. You agree that LG will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your LG Account.

c. Termination of Services by You. If you want to terminate the Services provided by LG, you may do so by terminate the specific Services or by closing your LG Account for all of the Online Services that you use. You may terminate any Services associated with your LG Account, distinct from the termination of the LG Account itself. Termination of a specific Service will only result in the cessation of that Service, and the LG Account remains in effect unless all of the Services are terminated. ANY SUBSCRIPTIONS WILL CONTINUE AT THE END OF EACH SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION.

d. Effect of Termination. Upon termination of any Online Service, your right to use such Service will automatically terminate immediately. Termination of all Services may also include deletion of your password and some or all related information, files and Content and/or User Content associated with or inside your LG Account. LG will not have any liability whatsoever to you for any suspension or termination of your access to the Online Services.

e. Suvival. Certain provisions of the Terms of Use will survive termination, including: Sections 4 (COMMUNICATIONS FROM LG, i.e. opt-in consent to communications subject to your right to opt-out), 6 (TERMS OF PURCHASE), 7 (INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS), 8 (USER CONTENT), 10 (THIRD-PARTY SERVICES), 11 (RELEASE), 13 (ENFORCEMENT), 14 (INDEMNIFICATION), 15 (WARRANTY AND DISCLAIMERS), 16 (LIMITATION OF LIABILITY), 17 (TERM, TERMINATION, AND SURVIVAL) 19 (DISPUTE RESOLUTION) (i.e. binding arbitration), and 20 (APPS DOWNLOADED FROM THIRD-PARTY APP STORES).

18. INTERNATIONAL USERS. The Online Services can be accessed from countries around the world and may contain references to Services, Products and Content that are not available in your country. These references do not imply that LG intends to announce such Services, Products or Content in your country. The Online Services are controlled and offered by LG from its facilities in the United States of America (the “US”) and are only intended for users in the US. LG makes no representations that the Services are appropriate or available for use in other locations, and if you access or use any Online Services from other countries you do so at your own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law.

19. DISPUTE RESOLUTION. Please read the following arbitration agreement in this section ("Arbitration Agreement") carefully. It requires Users to arbitrate disputes with LG and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.

a. Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute, claim, or request for relief relating in any way to your access or use of the Online Services, to any Products or Services sold or distributed through the Website or App, or to any aspect of your relationship with LG, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (a) you may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if your claims qualify; and (b) you or LG may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all disputes or claims and requests for relief that arose or were asserted before the effective date of the Terms of Use or any prior version of the Terms of Use.

b. Arbitration Rules and Forum. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your dispute or claim or request for relief to LG Electronics, USA, Inc., Attn: Legal Department – Arbitration 111 Sylvan Avenue, Englewood Cliffs, NJ 07632. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims, counterclaims, or request for relief under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other disputes shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS's rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from JAMS, LG will pay them for you. In addition, LG will reimburse all such JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for disputes, claims, or requests for relief totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

c. Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any assertion that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and LG. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and the Terms of Use (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.

d. Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND LG HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and LG are instead electing that all disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 19(a) (Application of Arbitration Agreement) above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow the Terms of Use as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.

e. Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief.
