JOS ASUINPAIKKASI (TAI YRITYKSESI PÄÄTOIMIPAIKKA) ON YHDYSVALLOISSA, LUE TÄMÄ RIIDANRATKAISUA KOSKEVA ILMOITUS: Nämä käyttöehdot sisältävät määräyksiä, jotka sääntelevät sitä, kuinka sinun ja meidän toisiamme kohtaan mahdollisesti esittämämme vaatimukset ratkaistaan (ks. kohta 27). Näihin kuuluvat mm. sopimus ja velvollisuus riitojen ratkaisemiseksi välimiesmenettelyssä, joka rajoitetuin poikkeuksin edellyttää, että toimitat meitä kohtaan esittämäsi vaatimukset sitovan välimiesmenettelyn ratkaistaviksi, ja rajoittaa määräaikaa, jonka kuluessa voit esittää vaatimuksen, ellet kieltäydy tästä kohdan 27(g) mukaisesti. Ellet kieltäydy välimiesmenettelystä: voit esittää meille vaatimuksia ainoastaan yksilötasolla, et ryhmäkanteen tai -menettelyn asianosaisena, ja voit vaatia hyvitystä (mukaan lukien vahingonkorvauksia, kieltomääräystä ja vahvistuskannetta) vain yksilönä.

1. EHTOJEN HYVÄKSYMINEN. Käyttöehdoissa kuvataan oikeutesi ja velvollisuutesi liittyen Western Digital Technologies, Inc.:n (”WDT”, ”me”, ”meidän”) toimittaman EdgeRover-palvelun käyttöön, mukaan lukien WDT:n datankäsittely- ja tallennuspalvelut ja kaikki muut WDT-palvelut, jotka liittyvät käyttöehtoihin, kaikki ohjelmistot, laitteistot, päivitykset (määritellään jäljempänä) ja muu oheismateriaali, jonka WDT tuo tai joka WDT:n puolesta tuodaan saataville EdgeRover-palveluun liittyen, esimerkkeinä WDT:n verkko-, mobiili- ja työpöytäsovellukset (”ohjelmistot”), ja kaikki verkkosivustot, tiedot, teksti, kuvat ja muu sisältö, jonka WDT tuo tai joka WDT:n puolesta tuodaan saataville edellä mainituilla tavoilla (kaikkia aiemmin tässä kohdassa 1 mainittuja medioita kutsutaan kollektiivisesti ”palveluksi”). WDT toimittaa palvelun, jonka kautta voit mahdollisesti käyttää tiettyjä palveluja, kuten indeksoida, hakea järjestellä tallentaa ja käyttää omaa sisältöäsi (määritellään jäljempänä). Lue käyttöehdot huolellisesti, sillä niiden ehdot sitovat sinua oikeudellisesti. WDT tarjoaa palvelun sinulle vain käyttöehtojen mukaisesti. Niiden WDT-ohjelmistojen tai -palveluiden kohdalla, joiden mukana toimitetaan erillinen sopimus, kyseisen erillisen sopimuksen ehtoja sovelletaan kyseisen WDT-ohjelmiston ja -palvelun käyttöön. Hyväksymällä käyttöehdot tai asentamalla palvelun, avaamalla sen tai käyttämällä sitä vakuutat ja takaat WDT:lle, että sinulla on täydet oikeudet ja valtuudet hyväksyä käyttöehdot, ja sitoudut noudattamaan niitä (mukaan lukien tietosuojalausunto, joka on saatavana osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/privacy-statement, ja hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskeva käytäntö, osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy, jotka molemmat on sisällytetty tähän viitteenä).Jos hyväksyt nämä käyttöehdot yrityksen tai muun oikeussubjektin puolesta, vakuutat ja takaat, että sinulla on valtuudet sitoa kyseinen taho näihin ehtoihin. Tässä tapauksessa termeillä ”sinä” ja ”sinun” viitataan myös kyseiseen tahoon. Jos sinulla ei ole riittäviä valtuuksia tai et hyväksy käyttöehtoja, et saa asentaa, avata tai muuten käyttää palvelua.
   
   Hyväksyt, että nämä käyttöehdot muodostavat sitovan laillisen sopimuksen sinun ja WDT:n välille, vaikka se on sähköinen etkä ole allekirjoittanut sitä fyysisesti, ja että se määrittelee, miten voit käyttää palvelua.
   
   
2. KÄYTTÖEHTOJEN PÄIVITYKSET. Saatamme muuttaa käyttöehtoja palvelun kehittyessä. Jos teemme merkittäviä muutoksia käyttöehtoihin, ilmoitamme niistä kohtuullisen hyvissä ajoin ennen muutosten voimantulopäivää lähettämällä sähköpostiviestin EdgeRover-tiliisi (”tili”) liittyvään sähköpostiosoitteeseen, julkaisemalla ilmoituksen tällä verkkosivustolla tai tuotteen sisäisellä ilmoituksella. Käyttöehtojen tarkistetut ehdot tulevat voimaan aikaisempana seuraavista: päivänä, jolloin hyväksyt tarkistetut ehdot, tai päivänä, joka on määritelty kyseisessä ilmoituksessa. Hyväksymällä tarkistetut ehdot tai avaamalla palvelun tai käyttämällä sitä tarkistettujen ehtojen voimaantulopäivän jälkeen suostut noudattamaan käyttöehtojen tarkistettuja ehtoja. Jos et hyväksy jotakin käyttöehtojen muutosta, sinun täytyy irtisanoa tilisi kohdassa 18 kuvatulla tavalla ja lopettaa palvelun käyttäminen. Voit tarkistaa käyttöehtojen uusimman version milloin tahansa käymällä osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/edgerover/terms-of-service.fi-fi.
3. TIETOSUOJALAUSUNTO. Lue tietosuojalausuntomme, jotta ymmärrät, kuinka käytämme henkilötietojasi ja suojaamme yksityisyytesi, kun käytät palvelua. Tietosuojalausunto on osa näitä käyttöehtoja ja kuuluu niiden piiriin, ja hyväksymällä nämä käyttöehdot sitoudut noudattamaan tietosuojalausunnon ehtoja ja hyväksyt, että voimme käyttää henkilötietoja sen ehtojen mukaisesti. Voit lukea tietosuojalausunnon uusimman version koska tahansa osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/privacy-statement. Jotta voimme tarjota palvelun sinulle, saatamme käyttää ulkopuolista pilvipalvelun tarjoajaa Amazon Web Services Inc:iä tai sen tytäryhtiöitä tallentamaan sisältöä, mukaan lukien oma sisältösi (määritellään jäljempänä) ja tiliisi liittyvät tiedot.
4. HYVÄKSYTTÄVÄÄ KÄYTTÖÄ KOSKEVA KÄYTÄNTÖ. Tutustu hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskevaan käytäntöömme, jotta ymmärrät palvelun käyttöön liittyvät vastuusi. Hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskeva käytäntö on osa näitä käyttöehtoja ja niiden alainen, ja hyväksymällä nämä käyttöehdot sitoudut noudattamaan hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskevan käytännön ehtoja. Voit lukea hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskevan käytännön uusimman version koska tahansa osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy.
5. REKISTERÖITYMINEN. Kuten minkä tahansa rekisteröinnin yhteydessä, WDT saattaa pyytää rekisteröintiin liittyviä tietoja, kuten nimesi, sähköpostiosoitteesi, käyttäjätunnuksesi ja salasanasi. Antamalla nämä tiedot suostut siihen, että WDT kerää ja käyttää niitä tietosuojalausunnon (ks. kohta 3) mukaisesti lähettääkseen sinulle palvelua koskevia muita kuin mainosviestejä, kuten tiliisi, tapahtumiin, päivityksiin (määritelty jäljempänä), tuotteiden takaisinvetoihin, turvallisuusongelmiin tai käytäntöjemme ja ehtojemme muutoksiin liittyvä ilmoituksia. Olet vastuussa käyttäjätunnuksesi, salasanasi ja tilisi salassapidosta sekä kaikista käyttäjätunnuksesi, salasanasi ja tilisi nimissä tehdyistä toimista. Olet vastuussa myös antamiesi tilitietojen paikkansapitävyydestä ja niiden ajan tasalla pitämisestä.
6. PALVELUN KÄYTTÖÄSI KOSKEVAT VAKUUTUKSET. Asentamalla tai avaamalla palvelun tai käyttämällä muuten sitä vakuutat, että (a) olet vähintään 18-vuotias (tai saavuttanut täysi-ikäisyyden, mikäli se on asuinpaikassasi muu kuin 18 vuotta), (b) olet täysin kykenevä ja pätevä hyväksymään nämä käyttöehdot ja noudattamaan niitä ja (c) palvelun käyttösi ei riko mitään sovellettavaa lakia tai määräystä. Palvelua ei ole tarkoitettu alle 13-vuotiaille lapsille, joten jos olet alle 13-vuotias, et saa käyttää tai avata palvelua. Jos olet rekisteröitynyt tiliä varten ja tietoomme tulee, että käytät palvelua, vaikka olet alle 13-vuotias, suljemme tilisi.
7. PALVELUN LAAJUUS.
   
   1. Palvelu ei sisällä mitään sinun tai kolmannen osapuolen tarjoamaa sisältöä (mukaan lukien oma sisältösi, joka määritellään jäljempänä), ohjelmistosovelluksia tai palvelua, joita avaat tai käytät yhdessä palvelun kanssa ja jotka saattavat kuulua toisten ehtojen piiriin.
   2. Ymmärrät, että WDT:llä ei ole velvollisuutta tarjota sinulle palvelun päivityksiä, kuten virheenkorjauksia, korjaustiedostoja, parannuksia, lisätoimintoja tai parannettuja toimintoja, laajennuksia ja uusia versioita (yhdessä ”päivitykset”), muta se voi tarjota tällaisia ajoittain. Palvelu saattaa automaattisesti muodostaa yhteyden WDT:n tai kolmannen osapuolen palvelimiin internetin kautta saatavilla olevien päivitysten tarkastamiseksi, ja se saattaa automaattisesti ladata ja asentaa päivityksiä laitteeseesi tai antaa sinulle mahdollisuuden ladata ja asentaa päivitykset manuaalisesti. Käyttöehdot hyväksymällä tai palvelua käyttämällä suostut vastaanottamaan automaattisia päivityksiä.
   3. Palveluun lisätyt muutokset ja uudet ominaisuudet ovat myös käyttöehtojen alaisia. WDT varaa oikeuden muokata palvelua tai keskeyttää sen tai minkä tahansa sen osan, ominaisuuden tai toiminnallisuuden toimittamisen, kuten kuvataan kohdassa 18.
   4. Kaikki palvelun ja sen osien oikeudet, omistukset ja edut (mukaan lukien kaikki immateriaalioikeudet) pysyvät WDT:llä ja kuuluvat yksinomaan sille.
8. PALVELUN AVAAMINEN JA KÄYTTÖ. Voit avata palvelun ja käyttää sitä vain laillisiin, valtuutettuihin tarkoituksiin, etkä saa väärinkäyttää palvelua millään tavalla, mukaan lukien tavat, jotka on mainittu hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskevassa käytännössä (katso kohta 4). Sinun täytyy noudattaa kaikkia toimintaohjeita, käytäntöjä, tallennusrajoituksia ja muita ilmoituksia, joita toimitamme ja julkaisemme palveluun liittyen, mutta jos jokin näistä käytännöistä huomattavasti muuttaa käyttöehtoja, ilmoitamme siitä kohtuullisen hyvissä ajoin, kuten kuvataan kohdassa 2.
   
   Sinun on viipymättä ilmoitettava WDT:lle osoitteeseen PSIRT@WDC.COM jos tietoosi tulee palveluun liittyvä turvallisuusrikkomus. Lisätietoja turvallisuutta koskevasta raportoinnista löydät osoitteesta https://www.westerndigital.com/support/productsecurity for additional information on security reporting.
9. WDT:N IMMATERIAALIOIKEUDET. Käyttöehtojen mukaisesti WDT myöntää sinulle vain rajoitetun, henkilökohtaisen, ei-yksinomaisen, ei-siirrettävän ja ei-alilisensoitavan lisenssin palvelun käyttöön. Saataville asetettavat ohjelmistot lisensoidaan sinulle, niitä ei myydä. WDT ja sen kolmannen osapuolen lisensoijat (”lisensoijat”) pidättävät itsellään kaikki oikeudet, joita ei nimenomaisesti myönnetä tässä. Suostut olemaan ryhtymättä mihinkään toimenpiteisiin, jotka haittaavat tai häiritsevät millään tavoin WDT:n tai sen lisensoijien oikeuksia, jotka liittyvät palveluun. Omaa sisältöäsi lukuun ottamatta me joko omistamme palvelun ja kaikki siihen liittyvät tavaramerkit, palvelumerkit ja logot tai ne on lisensoitu meille, ja niitä koskevat tekijänoikeudet ja muut immateriaalioikeudet Yhdysvaltain ja muiden maiden sekä kansainvälisten yleissopimusten mukaan. Lisäksi ohjelmisto sisältää yksityisiä ja luottamuksellisia tietoja, joita suojelevat asianmukaiset immateriaalioikeuksia koskevat lait ja muut lait.
10. KOLMANNEN OSAPUOLEN SISÄLTÖ JA PALVELUNTARJOAJAT. Palvelu saattaa sallia sinun käyttää kolmannen osapuolen ohjelmistoja, palveluita, verkkosivustoja tai sisältöä (”kolmannen osapuolen sisältö”). Tarjoamme kolmannen osapuolen sisällön käytön vain käytännön syistä, emmekä ole vastuussa mistään kolmannen osapuolen sisällöstä. Hyväksyt olevasi täysin vastuussa kolmannen osapuolen sisällön käytöstä ja kannat vastuun kaikista sen käytöstä aiheutuvista riskeistä. ENNEN KUIN KÄYTÄT KOLMANNEN OSAPUOLEN SISÄLTÖÄ, JOKA ON TUOTU SAATAVILLE LINKKIEN KAUTTA TAI MUILLA TAVOIN PALVELUN MYÖTÄ, SINUN KANNATTAA TARKISTAA KOLMANNEN OSAPUOLEN SOVELTAMAT EHDOT JA TIETOSUOJAKÄYTÄNNÖT SEKÄ TUTUSTUA KOLMANNEN OSAPUOLEN SÄÄNTÖIHIN, MENETTELYTAPOIHIN JA KÄYTÄNTÖIHIN.
11. KOLMANNEN OSAPUOLEN LAITTEET. Palvelu saattaa toimia laitteissa, joita WDT ei ole valmistanut (”kolmannen osapuolen laitteet”). Ymmärrät ja hyväksyt, että WDT ei takaa minkään kolmannen osapuolen laitteiden laatua tai toimivuutta. Ymmärrät, että WDT voi antaa tukea joidenkin mutta ei välttämättä kaikkien kolmansien osapuolen laitteiden käyttöön. WDT ei takaa, että palvelu olisi nyt, tulevaisuudessa tai pysyvästi yhteensopiva minkä tahansa kolmannen osapuolen laitteen kanssa.
12. RAJOITETTU KOKEILUJAKSO. WDT saattaa tarjota, olematta kuitenkaan tähän velvoitettu, tilillesi rajoitetun kokeilujakson käytettäväksi palvelun kanssa. Tähän sovelletaan kaikissa tapauksissa käyttöehtoja sekä lisäehtoja, jotka on mainittu sinulle esittämässämme kokeilutarjouksessa. Saatamme soveltaa muutoksia kokeilujaksoihin milloin tahansa, ja ne koskevat tulevaa käyttöä. Mahdollisuuden kokeilujaksoon määrittää WDT oman harkintansa mukaan, ja saatamme rajoittaa kelpoisuutta tai kestoa väärinkäytösten estämiseksi. Jotkin maksulliset tilaukset saattavat tarjota kokeilujaksoa ennen veloitusta valitsemallasi maksutavalla. Kokeilujakson päättyessä teemme veloituksen valitsemaasi maksutapaa käyttäen seuraavalle laskutuskaudelle, ja maksullinen tilauksesi (määritellään jäljempänä) uusitaan automaattisesti, ellet peruuta maksullista tilaustasi ennen kokeilujakson päättymistä.
13. MAKSUT.
    
    1. YLEISTÄ. Jos ostat palveluun kuuluvia ominaisuuksia, joita tarjoamme maksua vastaan (”maksulliset palvelut”), tällaiseen ostoon sovelletaan lisäksi myyntiehtojemme (kuluttajalle) käyttöehtoja, jotka ovat luettavissa osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/terms-and-conditions-of-sale-consumer. Jos myyntiehdoissa (kuluttajalle) ilmenee ristiriitaisuutta palvelun käytön suhteen, käyttöehdot ovat määräävät. Maksullisia palveluita varten, mukaan lukien maksulliset tilaukset (määritellään jäljempänä), valtuutat meidät ja nimeämämme maksukäsittelijät tallentamaan maksutietosi ja muut asiaan liittyvät tiedot. Suostut myös maksamaan maksullisiin palveluihin sovellettavat maksut, kuten maksullisten tilausten kausimaksut. Olet vastuussa kaikista sovellettavista veroista, tulleista, maksuista, ulkomaisten tapahtumien maksuista, valuuttamuunnosmaksuista ja muista vastaavista maksuista, jotka pankkisi tai maksupalvelujen tarjoaja veloittaa maksuista, jotka suoritat palveluun liittyen ja joita sovelletaan palveluun. Saatamme muuttaa hintoja milloin tahansa. Maksullisista tilauksista annamme hinnankorotusilmoituksen kohtuullisesti etukäteen ja pyydämme sinulta suostumusta jatkaa. Lainkäyttöalueesi lakien mukaan maksuja ei palauteta eikä osittain käytetyistä maksullisista tilausjaksoista makseta rahaa takaisin. Jos WDT lakkauttaa maksullisen tilauksesi ilman syytä, saat etukäteen maksamistasi maksuista suhteutetun palautuksen.
    2. MAKSULLISET TILAUKSET. Palvelun kautta voit saada mahdollisuuden ostaa käyttöösi joitakin palvelun ominaisuuksia tilauspohjaisesti (”maksulliset tilaukset”). Maksulliset tilaukset uusitaan automaattisesti kyseisen laskutusjakson päättyessä, ellei niitä peruuteta (katso peruutusohjeet kohdasta 18). Maksullisista tilauksista tehdään veloitus ostovahvistuksen yhteydessä ja jokaisen uuden laskutuskauden alkaessa, ellei tilausta peruuteta, ostonaikaisten ehtojen mukaisesti. Voit peruuttaa maksullisen tilauksesi milloin tahansa (katso kohta 18). Peruutus on lähetettävä ennen kyseisen laskutusjakson päättymistä, jotta seuraavasta laskutuskaudesta ei tule veloitusta. Peruutus tulee voimaan kyseisen laskutuskauden päättyessä. Jos maksutapaa ei voida mistä tahansa syystä (kuten erääntyminen tai riittämättömät varat) veloittaa ja jos et ole peruuttanut maksullista tilaustasi, olet vastuussa perimättömistä summista. Pidätämme oikeuden peruuttaa maksullisen tilauksesi, ellemme pysty uusimaan tilaustasi tekemällä veloitusta valitsemallasi maksutavalla.
    3. PERUUTUSOIKEUS. Sinulla on oikeus purkaa ja peruuttaa maksulliset tilauksesi syytä kertomatta 15 päivän peruutusajan sisällä.
       
       Peruutusaika umpeutuu 15 päivän kuluttua alkuperäisestä ostosta tai, jos noudatat vuosittaista maksuohjelmaa, uusimiskauden alettua.
       
       Jotta voit käyttää peruutusoikeutta, sinun on yksiselitteisesti ilmoitettava päätöksesi tilauksen peruuttamisesta WDT:lle (esim. kirjeellä postitse tai sähköpostilla). (Katso yhteystiedot käyttöehtojen alkuosasta.) Helpoin tapa käyttää peruuttamisoikeutta on ottaa yhteys WDT:hen sivustolla https://www.westerndigital.com/support tai lähettää sähköpostia osoitteeseen SUPPORT@WDC.COM.
       
       Jos haluat, voit käyttää alla olevaa peruuttamisen mallilomaketta.
       
       Peruuttamisen määräajan noudattamista varten riittää, että ilmoitus peruuttamisoikeuden käytöstä lähetetään ennen peruuttamisen määräajan päättymistä.
       
       Peruuttamisen vaikutukset. Jos käytät peruuttamisoikeuttasi, korvaamme sinulle kaikki saamamme maksut viipymättä ja joka tapauksessa enintään 15 päivän kuluessa siitä, kun olemme saaneet tiedon päätöksestäsi käyttää peruutusoikeuttasi. Suoritamme nämä korvaukset sillä maksutavalla, jonka olet alun perin määritellyt maksutavaksi.
       
       Jos kuitenkin käytät peruutusoikeuttasi, vaikka olet käyttänyt palvelua ennen peruutusmääräajan päättymistä, pidätämme summan, joka vastaa palvelun käyttöaikaasi siihen saakka, kunnes lähetät meille palvelun peruutuspäätöksesi.

14. OMAAN SISÄLTÖÖN LIITTYVÄT OIKEUDET JA VASTUUT.
    
    1. ”Oma sisältö” tarkoittaa mitä tahansa sisältöä ja materiaaleja, jotka lataat, tallennat, jaat, indeksoit, julkaiset, lähetät tai muuten asetat saataville palvelun avulla, ja se sisältää tiedostot, jotka lataat tai indeksoit palvelulla, metatiedot tai tunnisteet, jotka liittyvät tiedostoihisi tai jotka luodaan niiden yhteydessä, sekä tiedostoihin lisäämäsi kommentit ja profiilitiedot.
    2. Jotta voimme toarjota palvelun sinulle, tulee sinun myöntää meille tietyt oikeudet omaan sisältöösi. Joudumme ehkä esimerkiksi lähettämään, tallentamaan tai kopioimaan oman sisältösi näyttääksemme sitä sinulle, indeksoimaan sitä, jotta pystyt käyttämään sen hakutoimintoa, tekemään varmuuskopioita tietojen menetyksen estämiseksi ja muihin tarkoituksiin, jotka liittyvät suoraan siihen, miten käytät palvelua. Hyväksymällä nämä käyttöehdot annat meille luvan näihin toimiin sekä missä tahansa maailmassa tarvittavat asianmukaiset oikeudet, jotta voimme toimittaa palvelun sinulle ja vain siihen tarkoitukseen, että voimme toimittaa palvelun sinulle (eikä mihinkään muuhun tarkoitukseen). Tämän luvan myötä sallit meidän käyttää kolmannen osapuolen palveluntarjoajia palvelun toimintaan ja hallintaan, ja meille myöntämäsi oikeudet siirtyvät näille kolmansille osapuolille tarvittavassa määrin, jotta WDT voi toimittaa palvelun sinulle.
    3. Jos lähetät meille palvelua koskevaa palautetta tai ehdotuksia, WDT voi käyttää kyseistä palautetta tai ehdotuksia mihin tahansa tarkoitukseen ilman mitään velvoitteita sinua kohtaan, ellei sovellettava laki tai määräys rajoita tällaista käyttöä.
    4. Olet yksin vastuussa toiminnastasi, omasta sisällöstäsi ja kaikesta viestinnästä muiden kanssa käyttäessäsi palvelua.
    5. Saatamme tarkistaa, onko oma sisältösi käytäntöjemme ja ohjeidemme mukaista, mutta hyväksyt sen, että WDT:llä ei ole velvollisuutta valvoa mitään palvelun tietoja.
    6. Emme ole vastuussa oman sisältösi tai sinulle jaetun minkä tahansa muun sisällön tarkkuudesta, tarkoituksenmukaisuudesta tai laillisuudesta emmekä siitä, että pystyt muutoin käyttämään sisältöä palvelun kautta. Palvelu saattaa tarjota ominaisuuksia, joiden avulla voit jakaa omaa sisältöäsi ja muuta materiaalia ja tehdä niistä julkisia. Harkitse tarkkaan, ennen kuin jaat materiaalia tai teet siitä julkista. Sinun täytyy arvioida kaikki oman sisältösi käyttöön ja sen luotettavuuteen liittyvät riskit ja vastata niistä.
    7. Suostut käyttämään palvelua vastuullisesti, ja takaat ja vakuutat, että se, miten käytät palvelua, sekä oma sisältösi noudattaa käytäntöjämme ja ohjeitamme, mukaan lukien hyväksyttävää käyttöä koskevaa käytäntöämme (katso kohta 4).
15. MITEN HALLINNOIMME PALVELUA; KÄYTTÄJIEN VÄÄRINKÄYTÖKSET. Sovellettavan lain sallimassa laajuudessa pidätämme oikeuden mutta emme sitoudu velvollisuuteen (a) valvoa tai tarkistaa palvelua näiden käyttöehtojen rikkomusten varalta sekä käytäntöjemme ja ohjeidemme noudattamisen osalta; (b) raportoida lainvalvontaviranomaisille kaikista näitä käyttöehtoja rikkovista henkilöistä sekä tehdä yhteistyötä lainvalvontaviranomaisten kanssa syytetoimissa näitä käyttöehtoja rikkovia henkilöitä vastaan; (c) ryhtyä oikeustoimiin ketä tahansa näitä käyttöehtoja rikkovaa vastaan; (d) seuloa, kieltää, poistaa tai muokata mitä tahansa omaa sisältöäsi tai sen osaa tai rajoittaa siihen pääsyä tai sen saatavuutta tai estää siihen pääsy tai sinun pääsysi palveluun soveltuvin osin ja siinä määrin kuin se on teknisesti mahdollista, jos oman sisältösi todetaan rikkovan näitä käyttöehtoja, meidän käytäntöjämme tai ohjeitamme tai se on muuten sopimatonta; (e) hallinnoida palvelua tavalla, joka on suunniteltu suojelemaan meidän ja kolmansien osapuolien oikeuksia ja omaisuutta tai mahdollistamaan palvelun asianmukainen toiminta; (f) seuloa käyttäjiämme tai jäseniämme tai pyrkiä vahvistamaan käyttäjiemme tai jäseniemme antamat tiedot ja (g) valvoa sinun ja muiden käyttäjien välisiä ongelmia tai poistaa tai estää sinut ja muut käyttäjät näiden käyttöehtojen rikkomuksen vuoksi.
    
    Jos palvelua käyttäessäsi kohtaat sisältöä tai toimintaa, jonka uskot olevan näiden käyttöehtojen vastaista tai jonka muuten koet olevan sopimatonta, voit ilmoittaa asiasta ottamalla yhteyttä WDT:hen osoitteen https://www.westerndigital.com/support kautta tai lähettämällä sähköpostia osoitteeseen SUPPORT@WDC.COM.
16. PÄÄSY TILILLESI JA OMAAN SISÄLTÖÖSI. Sovellettavan lain sallimassa laajuudessa ymmärrät ja hyväksyt, että WDT voi tietosuojalausunnon ehtojen mukaisesti päästä tilitietoihisi ja omaan sisältöösi sekä säilyttää ja luovuttaa tietoja niistä, mikäli laki sitä edellyttää tai WDT vilpittömästi uskoo, että tällainen pääsy, säilytys tai luovutus on välttämätöntä (a) oikeudellisen prosessin noudattamiseksi; (b) näiden käyttöehtojen toimeenpanemiseksi; (c) kolmansien osapuolien oikeuksia rikkovaa omaa sisältöäsi koskeviin vaatimuksiin vastaamiseksi; (d) asiakaspalvelupyyntöihisi vastaamiseksi tai (e) WDT:n, sen käyttäjien tai yleisön oikeuksien, omaisuuden tai henkilökohtaisen turvallisuuden suojelemiseksi.
17. INTERNET-YHTEYS; PALVELUN SAATAVUUS. Palvelun joidenkin ominaisuuksien käyttäminen saattaa edellyttää internet-yhteyttä. Sinun vastuullasi on hankkia ja maksaa kaikki internet-yhteyden ja sen käytön edellyttämät laitteet ja lisenssit, joita tarvitset palveluun sovellettavien ominaisuuksien avaamisen ja käytön yhteydessä. Palvelun käyttö saattaa tilapäisesti estyä aikataulutettujen ylläpitotoimien tai aikatauluttamattomien kiireellisten ylläpitotoimien vuoksi tai johtuen muista syistä, joihin emme voi kohtuudella vaikuttaa ja joita ovat esimerkiksi internetin käytön estyminen, mutta WDT aikoo noudattaa toimia, jotta se voi kohtuullisen hyvissä ajoin lähettää ilmoituksen huomattavista aikataulutetuista häiriöistä.
18. VOIMASSAOLOAIKA; PERUMINEN.
    
    1. KÄYTTÖEHTOJEN VOIMASSAOLOAIKA. Käyttöehdot pysyvät voimassa kokonaisuudessaan muutoksineen, ellei tiliäsi tai käyttöehtoja peruta tai kunnes ne perutaan, kuten kuvataan käyttöehdoissa.
    2. SINUN IRTISANOMISOIKEUTESI. Jos olet luonut tilin, voit irtisanoa sen milloin tahansa tilisi asetuksista. Kohdan 18(d) mukaisesti tilin irtisanominen poistaa peruuttamattomasti profiilisi ja oman sisältösi, mukaan lukien jakamasi tai julkaisemasi sisältö. Jos muut käyttäjät ovat kopioineet jakamaasi sisältöä omille tileilleen tai palvelusn ulkopuolelle, näitä kopioita ei poisteta. Oma sisältösi saattaa jäädä palveluun joksikin aikaa käsitellessämme peruutuspyyntöäsi ja se saattaa säilyä varmuuskopioissamme tätäkin pidempään. Jos tili aktivoidaan myöhemmin uudelleen, omaa sisältöäsi palvelun aiemman käytön ajalta ei ehkä ole mahdollista palauttaa.

Irtisanomisen syihin sisältyvät (i) näihin käyttöehtoihin sisältyvien vakuutusten, takuiden tai sitoumusten rikkominen sinun toimestasi; (ii) näiden käyttöehtojen tai käytäntöjemme tai ohjeiden rikkominen sinun toimestasi; (iii) pyyntösi peruuttaa tai irtisanoa tilisi; (iv) lainvalvontaviranomaisen, oikeudellisen elimen tai muun valtion viraston pyyntö tai määräys; (v) sovellettavan lain tai määräyksen rikkominen sinun toimestasi; (vi) tilanteet, joissa palvelun tarjoaminen sinulle on laitonta tai tulee laittomaksi; (vii) odottamattomat tekniset tai turvallisuuteen liittyvät seikat tai ongelmat sekä (viii) palveluun liittyvien maksujen laiminlyöminen sinun toimestasi, edellyttäen, että jos kyseessä on vähäinen rikkomus, WDT voi irtisanoa sopimuksesi vain, jos asiasta on ilmoitettu sinulle etukäteen ja sinulle on annettu kohtuullisesti aikaa rikkomuksen korjaamiseen. Tämän lisäksi WDT voi sulkea tilisi, jos palvelun tai jonkin sen osan tarjoaminen lopetetaan. Jos päätämme lopettaa palvelun tarjoamisen, ilmoitamme siitä sinulle kohtuullisen hyvissä ajoin etukäteen.
    4. OMAN SISÄLTÖSI SÄILYTTÄMINEN. Jos palvelu irtisanotaan, meillä ei ole velvollisuutta ylläpitää tai tarjota palveluun tallennettua omaa sisältöäsi; pyrimme kuitenkin antamaan sinulle ilmoituksen kohtuullisen hyvissä ajoin ennen palvelun käytön päättymistä, jotta sinulle jää kohtuullisesti aikaa ladata oma sisältösi keskeyttämisen jälkeen. Katso tietosuojalausunnosta (kohta 3) omaa sisältöäsi koskevia vaihtoehtoja.
    5. PALAUTUKSET. Jos päätät sulkea tilisi tai jos WDT sulkee tilisi käyttöehtojen rikkomisen tai muun syyn takia sovellettavien paikallisten lakien mukaisesti, meillä ei ole velvollisuutta palauttaa maksamiasi summia. Jos WDT kuitenkin lirtisanoo tilisi ilman syytä, saat etukäteen maksamistasi maksuista suhteutetun palautuksen.
    6. VOIMASSA PYSYMINEN. Käyttöehtojen kaikki ehdot, jotka edellyttävät täytäntöönpanoa näiden käyttöehtojen irtisanomisen jälkeen, pysyvät voimassa ja toimeenpanokelpoisina käyttöehtojen irtisanomisesta huolimatta.

21. ILMOITUS KÄYTTÄJILLE NEW JERSEYN OSAVALTIOSSA. Huolimatta näissä käyttöehdoissa määritellyistä ehdoista, jos jokin näiden käyttöehtojen kohdassa 19 tai 20 määritelty ehto katsotaan New Jerseyn lainsäädännön mukaan toimeenpanokelvottomaksi, pätemättömäksi tai soveltumattomaksi, kyseinen ehto ei koske sinua, mutta näiden käyttöehtojen jäljelle jäävät osat sitovat yhä sinua ja WDT:tä. Tämän lisäksi vastuunrajoitusta ei sovelleta New Jerseyn asukkaiden kohdalla, mikäli asianajokuluista, oikeudenkäyntikuluista tai muista korvauksista määrätään lailla. Huolimatta näiden käyttöehtojen ehdoista, minkään käyttöehdoissa mainitun ei ole tarkoitus rajoittaa mitään oikeutta, joka sinulla on Truth-in-Consumer Contract, Warranty and Notice Act -lain nojalla, eikä sitä tule sellaiseksi katsoa eikä tulkita.
22. ILMOITUS KÄYTTÄJILLE KALIFORNIASSA. Kalifornian siviililain pykälän 1789.3 mukaisesti Kalifornian asukkailla on oikeus saada seuraava kuluttajan oikeuksia koskeva ilmoitus. Käyttäjät voivat ottaa yhteyttä kirjoittamalla seuraavaan osoitteeseen: Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, USA. Kalifornian asukkaat voivat ottaa yhteyttä Kalifornian kuluttaja-asiaosaston reklamaatioyksikköön (Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs) lähettämällä postia osoitteeseen 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834 tai soittamalla numeroon (916) 445-1254 tai (800) 952-5210.
23. TEKIJÄNOIKEUSRIKKOMUKSIA KOSKEVIEN ILMOITUSTEN JA VAATIMUSTEN TEKEMINEN. Kunnioitamme tekijänoikeuksien omistajien oikeutta hallita immateriaaliomaisuutensa käyttöä ja edellytämme samaa palvelumme käyttäjiltä. WDT:n käytäntönä on ryhtyä toimenpiteisiin sellaisten väitettyjä oikeudenloukkauksia koskevien ilmoitusten osalta, jotka on tehty Yhdysvaltain Digital Millennium Copyright Act -lain ja muiden sovellettavien teollis- ja tekijänoikeuksia koskevien lakien mukaisesti. Toimenpiteisiin saattavat kuulua materiaalien poistaminen tai materiaaleihin pääsyn estäminen sekä sellaisten käyttäjien tilien sulkeminen, jotka saattavat loukata tai toistuvasti loukata WDT:n tai muiden tekijänoikeuksia tai muita immateriaalioikeuksia.
    
    Jos olet tekijänoikeuden omistaja tai jos sinut on valtuutettu toimimaan tällaisen puolesta ja uskot, että palvelussa oleva tai sieltä saatava materiaali tai sisältö rikkoo tekijänoikeutta, ota yhteys WDT:n tekijänoikeustoimistoon, kuten kuvataan tekijänoikeuskäytännössämme osoitteessa https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/copyright-policy.
    
    Kuten tekijänoikeuskäytännössämme mainitaan, huomaa, että jos poistamme materiaalia, josta on ilmoitettu väitetyssä tekijänoikeusrikkomuksessa, tai jos rajoitamme pääsyä sellaiseen materiaaliin, Western Digital saattaa lähettää ilmoittaneelle käyttäjälle ilmoituksen kopion, mukaan lukien yhteystietosi. Jos tekijänoikeustoimistomme vastaanottaa vastailmoituksen, Western Digital saattaa lähettää alkuperäiselle valituksen tehneelle osapuolelle kopion vastailmoituksesta, mukaan lukien yhteystietosi. Meille lähettämäsi sähköpostiviestit, jotka koskevat tekijänoikeusrikkomusilmoituksia, saatetaan tallentaa Yhdysvalloissa sijaitseville palvelimille.
24. ILMOITUS YHDYSVALTAIN VALTION LOPPUKÄYTTÄJILLE. Ohjelmisto sisältää ”kaupallisia tuotteita”, kuten ne on määritelty Yhdysvaltain liittovaltion säädöstössä 48 C.F.R. § 2.101, ja se koostuu ”kaupallisesta tietokoneohjelmistosta” tai ”kaupallisesta tietokoneohjelmistodokumentaatiosta”, kuten ne on määritelty liittovaltion säädöstössä 48 C.F.R. § 12.212 tai 48 C.F.R. § 227.7202, soveltuvin osin. Jos näin ollen käytät ohjelmistoa Yhdysvaltain valtion tai sen alihankkijan puolesta, valtio saa ohjelmistoon vain ne oikeudet, jotka annetaan kaikille muille loppukäyttäjille lisenssillä, puolustusministeriön ja sen alihankkijoiden kohdalla säädöstöjen 48 C.F.R. § 227.7201 – 48 C.F.R. § 227.7204 mukaisesti ja kaikkien muiden Yhdysvaltain valtion lisenssinhaltijoiden ja näiden alihankkijoiden kohdalla säädöstön 48 C.F.R. § 12.212 mukaisesti.
25. KANSAINVÄLINEN KÄYTTÖ. Siinä määrin kuin sovellettava laki sen sallii, WDT ei väitä eikä takaa, että palvelu soveltuu käytettäväksi tai on käytettävissä maassasi. Saatamme rajoittaa palvelun saatavuutta kokonaan tai osittain valitsemamme henkilön, maantieteellisen alueen tai lainkäyttöalueen kohdalla milloin tahansa ja oman harkintamme mukaisesti. Ymmärrät ja hyväksyt, että palveluun tai sen osiin, sen sisältämät materiaalit mukaan lukien, saatetaan soveltaa Yhdysvaltain vientihallintosäännöksiä, Yhdysvaltain valtionvarainministeriön ulkomaisten varojen valvontatoimiston (U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Asset Control, ”OFAC”) talouspakotteita koskevia määräyksiä sekä muiden maiden tai hallitustenvälisten organisaatioiden (mukaan lukien EU ja Yhdistyneet kansakunnat) vienti- ja pakotelakeja ja että tällaisten palvelun osien tai materiaalien ohjaaminen muualle Yhdysvaltain lainsäädännön tai muiden sovellettavien lakien vastaisesti on kiellettyä. Suostut siihen, ettei mitään palvelun osaa tai sen suoraa tuotetta tai materiaaleja käytetä ydinenergia-alan toimintaan, kemiallisiin tai biologisiin aseisiin tai ohjusprojekteihin, ellei siihen ole Yhdysvaltain valtion (tai muun asianomaisen valtion) nimenomaista valtuutusta. Ymmärrät ja hyväksyt, että mitään palvelun osaa, sen perustana olevia tietoja tai tekniikkaa tai sen dataa/materiaaleja ei saa suoraan tai välillisesti ladata tai muuten viedä, jälleenviedä, lähettää, siirtää tai hankkia mihinkään Yhdysvaltain, EU:n tai YK:n kauppasaarron piiriin kuuluvaan maahan tai alueelle (ja/tai tällaisten maiden tai alueiden asukkaille tai kansalaisille); kenellekään OFAC:n erityisesti nimettyjen kansalaisten ja estettyjen henkilöiden listalla (Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons) tai vastaavalla laillisella pakotelistalla olevalle henkilölle tai millekään Yhdysvaltojen tai Wassenaar-maiden ylläpitämällä rajoitettujen tai estettyjen osapuolien listalla olevalle taholle. Avaamalla palvelun ja käyttämällä sitä suostut näihin ehtoihin ja esität ja takaat, että et ole kyseisissä luetteloissa etkä ole kyseisen maan tai alueen kansalainen tai asukas tai sellaisen hallinnassa. Ymmärrät myös, että tiettyjä palvelun osia, kuten koodausta tai autentikointia sekä omia materiaalejasi, tiedostojasi, tietojasi tai niiden käyttöä saattavat koskea vienti- tai tuontirajoitukset, ja suostut ehdottomasti noudattamaan kaikkia vienti-, jälleenvienti- ja tuontilakeja ja otat yksin vastuun vienti-, jälleenvienti- tai tuontilupien hankkimisesta.
26. KORVAUSVELVOLLISUUS. Siinä määrin kuin sovellettava laki sen sallii, sitoudut korvaamaan vahingot ja puolustamaan ja suojaamaan WDT:tä ja sen johtajia, toimihenkilöitä, työntekijöitä ja edustajia sekä WDT:n lisensoijia kaikilta korvausvaatimuksilta, kanteilta tai vaatimuksilta, mukaan lukien kaikki menetykset, vastuut, vahingot, sakot, kulut ja kohtuulliset asianajo- ja kirjanpitomaksut ja -kustannukset, jotka johtuvat käyttöehtojen rikkomisesta tai omasta sisällöstäsi tai siitä, miten olet käyttänyt tai väärinkäyttänyt palvelua, tai jotka liittyvät edellä mainittuihin. WDT ilmoittaa sinulle mahdollisista korvausvaatimuksista, kanteista tai vaatimuksista. WDT pidättää oikeuden hoitaa yksin puolustuksen ja hallinnan kaikissa tapauksissa, joihin liittyy kolmas osapuoli, joka on tämän kohdan nojalla oikeutettu saamaan korvauksia. Tällaisessa tapauksessa sitoudut täyttämään kaikki WDT:n kohtuulliset pyynnöt auttaaksesi WDT:tä puolustuksessa tällaisissa asioissa. SINUN EI EDELLYTETÄ KORVAAVAN VAHINKOJA JA SUOJAAVAN MEITÄ MILTÄÄN KORVAUSVAATIMUKSILTA, KANTEILTA TAI VAATIMUKSILTA, MIKÄLI NE AIHEUTUVAT WDT:N OMASTA HUOLIMATTOMUUDESTA.
27. RIITA-ASIAT JA VÄLIMIESMENETTELYÄ KOSKEVA SOPIMUS.
    
    JOS ASUINPAIKKASI (TAI YRITYKSESI PÄÄTOIMIPAIKKA) ON YHDYSVALLOISSA: LUE TÄMÄ KOHTA HUOLELLISESTI – SE SAATTAA VAIKUTTAA MERKITTÄVÄSTI LAKISÄÄTEISIIN OIKEUKSIISI, MUKAAN LUKIEN OIKEUTESI NOSTAA KANNE TUOMIOISTUIMESSA.
    1. EPÄVIRALLINEN RIIDANRATKAISU. Voit ottaa meihin yhteyttä osoitteessa Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, USA, jos sinulla on palvelun käyttöä koskevia huolenaiheita. Useimmat huolenaiheet ratkeavat nopeasti tällä tavalla. Sinä ja me sovimme pyrkivämme parhaamme mukaan ratkaisemaan kaikki riita-asiat, vaatimukset, kysymykset tai erimielisyydet neuvottelemalla ensin suoraan ja vilpittömin mielin, mikä on edellytyksenä jommankumman osapuolen aloittamalle oikeusjutulle tai välimiesmenettelylle.
    2. SITOVAA VÄLIMIESMENETTELYÄ KOSKEVA SOPIMUS. Jos emme löydä ratkaisua 60 päivän kuluessa kohdan 27(a) mukaisen epävirallisen riidanratkaisun toteuttamisesta, jompikumpi osapuolista voi aloittaa sitovan välimiesmenettelyn näissä käyttöehdoissa määriteltyjen ehtojen mukaisesti. Kaikki vaatimukset, jotka johtuvat käyttöehtojen ehdoista (mukaan lukien niiden muoto, toimeenpano ja rikkomukset), palvelusta tai osapuolien suhteesta toisiinsa, ratkaistaan lopullisesti JAMSin sitovassa välimiesmenettelyssä noudattaen JAMSin välimiesmenettelyä koskevia sääntöjä (JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures), pois lukien säännöt tai menettelyt, joita sovelletaan ryhmäkanteisiin tai jotka sallivat ryhmäkanteet. Kullakin osapuolella on oikeus käyttää välimiesmenettelyn yhteydessä oikeudellista avustajaa omalla kustannuksellaan. Osapuolet valitsevat yhden puolueettoman välimiehen JAMSin välimiesmenettelyä koskevien sääntöjen mukaisesti. Välimiehellä, ei millään liittovaltion, osavaltion tai paikallisen oikeuslaitoksen edustajalla, on yksinomainen toimivalta ratkaista kaikki riita-asiat, jotka liittyvät näiden käyttöehtojen tulkintaan, sovellettavuuteen, alaan, toimeenpanokelpoisuuteen tai muotoon tai johtuvat siitä, mukaan lukien vaatimukset siitä, että kaikki nämä käyttöehdot tai niiden osa on mitätön tai mitätöitävissä, ja lukuun ottamatta kohdissa 27(d)–(f) mainittuja tilanteita. Voit halutessasi osallistua välimiesmenettelyyn puhelimitse. Välimiesmenettelyt, joita ei suoriteta puhelimitse, järjestetään paikassa, johon pääset kohtuullisin keinoin asuinpaikastasi Yhdysvalloista, tai Yhdysvaltojen Kalifornian osavaltion Santa Claran piirikunnassa, valintasi mukaan. Välimiehellä on valtuudet määrätä mikä tahansa tuomioistuimen käytössä oleva lakiin tai kohtuuteen perustuva oikeustoimi. Välimiehen päätös on kirjallinen ja sisältää lausunnon keskeisistä havainnoista ja johtopäätöksistä, sitoo osapuolia ja voidaan panna täytäntöön missä tahansa toimivaltaisessa tuomioistuimessa. Sinä ja WDT sovitte, että tämä kohta 27 pysyy voimassa käyttöehtojen päättyessä. Nämä käyttöehdot kuvaavat osavaltioiden välistä kauppaa, ja tätä kohtaa 27 sovelletaan Yhdysvaltain Federal Arbitration Act -sovittelulain (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) mukaisesti.
       
       Välimiesmenettelyyn sovellettavat JAMSin säännöt ovat saatavilla osoitteessa https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures tai soittamalla numeroon +1 800 352 5267. Mikäli aloitat välimiesmenettelyn ja mikäli hakemusmaksu on yli 250,00 Yhdysvaltain dollaria, maksamme lisäkulut. Jos meidän on maksettava hakemusmaksuista aiheutuvat lisäkulut, sinun on lähetettävä kulujen maksamista koskeva pyyntö JAMSille yhdessä välimiesmenettelyn aloittamista koskevan hakemuksesi kanssa, jolloin ryhdymme toimenpiteisiin tarpeellisten maksujen maksamiseksi suoraan JAMSille. Maksamme myös kaikki muut välimiesmenettelystä johtuvat kulut, lukuun ottamatta oikeudellisesta avustajastasi ja matkoistasi aiheutuvia kuluja sekä muita kuluja ja kustannuksia, jotka eivät muodostu JAMSille maksettavista maksuista tai summista. Sinun ei tarvitse maksaa meille aiheutuneita maksuja ja kuluja, jos asiaa ei ratkaista välimiesmenettelyssä sinun eduksesi. Maksamme myös JAMSille, jotta se korvaa sinulle sen osan hakemusmaksusta, joka ylittää maksun, jonka muutoin olisit maksanut kanteen nostamisesta tuomioistuimessa. Ellei sinun ja WDT:n välillä ole kirjallisesti sovittu muuta, välimies määrittää maksujen, kustannusten ja kulujen määrän, jonka WDT maksaa tämän kohdan nojalla.
       
       OSAPUOLET YMMÄRTÄVÄT, ETTÄ JOS TÄTÄ PAKOLLISTA EHTOA EI OLISI, HEILLÄ OLISI OIKEUS NOSTAA KANNE TUOMIOISTUIMESSA JA OIKEUS VALAMIESOIKEUDENKÄYNTIIN. LISÄKSI OSAPUOLET YMMÄRTÄVÄT, ETTÄ TIEDONSAANTIOIKEUS SAATTAA OLLA RAJOITETUMPI VÄLIMIESMENETTELYSSÄ KUIN TUOMIOISTUIMESSA.
       
       
    3. LUOPUMINEN OIKEUDESTA RYHMÄKANTEISIIN JA RYHMÄSOVITTELUUN. SINÄ JA WDT SOVITTE LISÄKSI, ETTÄ KAIKKI VÄLIMIESMENETTELYT TOTEUTETAAN YKSILÖTASOLLA, EI RYHMÄKANTEINA TAI MUINA EDUSTAJAVÄLITTEISINÄ KANTEINA. SINÄ JA WDT LUOVUTTE KUMPIKIN NIMENOMAISESTI OMASTA OIKEUDESTANNE NOSTAA RYHMÄKANNE TAI VAATIA KORVAUSTA RYHMÄTASOLLA, YHDYSVALTAIN LIITTOVALTION TAI OSAVALTION RYHMÄKANTEET TAI RYHMÄSOVITTELUT MUKAAN LUKIEN. Jos jokin tuomioistuin tai välimies toteaa, että tässä kappaleessa määritelty ryhmäkanteista luopuminen on mistä tahansa syystä pätemätön tai toimeenpanokelvoton tai että välimiesmenettely voidaan toteuttaa ryhmätasolla, kohdassa 27(b) oleva välimiesmenettelyä koskeva ehto katsotaan kokonaisuudessaan mitättömäksi, eikä osapuolten katsota sopineen riidanratkaisusta välimiesmenettelyssä.
    4. POIKKEUS – VAATIMUSTEN ESITTÄMINEN VÄHÄISIÄ VAATIMUKSIA KÄSITTELEVISSÄ TUOMIOISTUIMISSA YHDYSVALLOISSA. Huolimatta osapuolien sopimuksesta ratkaista kaikki riidat välimiesmenettelyssä kumpikin osapuoli voi viedä yksittäisen kanteen yhdysvaltalaiseen vähäisiä vaatimuksia käsittelevään tuomioistuimeen (small claims court), jos kanne nostetaan kyseisen tuomioistuimen lainkäyttöalueella ja käsitellään ainoastaan kyseisessä tuomioistuimessa.
    5. POIKKEUS – KALIFORNIAN PAGA (PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT) -KANTEET. Huolimatta osapuolien sopimuksesta ratkaista kaikki riidat välimiesmenettelyssä kumpikin osapuoli voi vaatia korvausta tuomioistuimessa, mikäli vaatimus kuuluu Kalifornian PAGA-lain piiriin.
    6. POIKKEUS – IMMATERIAALIOIKEUKSIA KOSKEVAT VAATIMUKSET. Huolimatta osapuolien sopimuksesta ratkaista kaikki riidat välimiesmenettelyssä kumpikin osapuoli voi vaatia korvauksia tuomioistuimessa, mikäli vaatimus liittyy (i) liikesalaisuuksien, (ii) patenttien, (iii) tekijänoikeuksien tai (iv) tavaramerkkien täytäntöönpanoon, loukkaukseen tai voimassaoloon. Osapuolet sopivat, että tuomioistuin, ei välimies, voi tehdä päätöksen, jos vaatimus kuuluu johonkin näistä neljästä poikkeuksesta.
    7. OIKEUS KIELTÄYTYÄ 30 PÄIVÄN AIKANA. Voit kieltäytyä tästä välimiesmenettelyä koskevasta sopimuksesta lähettämällä kirjeen osoitteeseen Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department – Western Digital EdgeRover Arbitration Opt-Out, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, USA 30 päivän kuluessa näiden käyttöehtojen hyväksymisestä tai 30 päivän kuluessa tässä kohdassa 27 mainitun välimiesmenettelysopimuksen muuttamisesta. Välimiesmenettelystä kieltäytymistä koskevan kirjeesi tulee sisältää (i) nimesi, (ii) käyttäjänimesi, (iii) postiosoitteesi, (iv) sähköpostiosoitteesi ja (v) nimenomainen pyyntösi kieltäytyä tässä kohdassa 27 mainitusta välimiesmenettelysopimuksesta. Jos kieltäydyt tästä edellä määritetyn menettelyn mukaisesta välimiesmenettelysopimuksesta, kaikkia muita käyttöehtojen ehtoja sovelletaan kohdallasi yhä palvelun käyttöön.
    8. AIKARAJOITUS. ONGELMIEN RATKAISEMISEKSI OSAPUOLTEN VÄLILLÄ PIKAISESTI JA SUORAAN SINÄ JA WDT SOVITTE, ETTÄ VÄLIMIESMENETTELY TAI VÄHÄISIÄ VAATIMUKSIA KÄSITTELEVÄN TUOMIOISTUIMEN KÄSITTELY KOSKIEN NÄIDEN KÄYTTÖEHTOJEN PIIRIIN KUULUVAA VAATIMUSTA ALOITETAAN VUODEN KULUESSA VAATIMUKSEN SYNTYMISESTÄ. MUUTEN VAATIMUKSEN KÄSITTELY ESTYY PYSYVÄSTI.
28. AVOIMEN LÄHDEKOODIN OHJELMISTO. Palvelu saattaa sisältää avoimen lähdekoodin ohjelmiston, johon sovelletaan avoimen lähdekoodin lisenssiehtoja. Huolimatta muusta näissä ehdoissa mainitusta kyseisen avoimen lähdekoodin ohjelmiston käyttöön sovelletaan kyseisen avoimen lähdekoodin lisenssiehtoja siinä määrin kuin asianomainen lisensoija sitä edellyttää. WDT ei tue kyseistä avoimen lähdekoodin ohjelmistoa.
29. LAINVALINTA.
    Näihin käyttöehtoihin ei sovelleta Yhdistyneiden kansakuntien yleissopimusta kansainvälistä tavaran kauppaa koskevista sopimuksista.
    
    JOS ASUINPAIKKASI (TAI YRITYKSESI PÄÄTOIMIPAIKKA) ON YHDYSVALLOISSA: Kohdassa 27 mainittua lukuun ottamatta kaikki vaatimukset, jotka johtuvat näistä käyttöehdoista, palvelusta tai osapuolten välisestä suhteesta tai liittyvät niihin, kuuluvat Kalifornian osavaltion lainsäädännön piiriin, lainvalintasäännöistä riippumatta.
    
    JOS ASUINPAIKKASI (TAI YRITYKSESI PÄÄTOIMIPAIKKA) ON MUUALLA KUIN YHDYSVALLOISSA: Asuinmaasi lainsäädäntöä sovelletaan kaikkiin vaatimuksiin, jotka johtuvat käyttöehdoista, palvelusta tai osapuolien välisestä suhteesta tai liittyvät niihin.
30. YKSINOMAINEN OIKEUSPAIKKA.
    JOS ASUINPAIKKASI (TAI YRITYKSESI PÄÄTOIMIPAIKKA) ON YHDYSVALLOISSA: Mikäli kohdassa 27 määriteltyjä välimieskäsittelyä koskevia ehtoja ei sovelleta tai mikäli olet kieltäytynyt välimiesmenettelystä, osapuolet sopivat, että kaikki heidän välisensä riita-asiat käsitellään yksinomaan Kalifornian Santa Claran piirikunnassa sijaitsevissa osavaltion tai liittovaltion tuomioistuimissa (lukuun ottamatta vähäisiä vaatimuksia käsittelevissä tuomioistuimissa nostettuja kanteita, jotka voidaan nostaa asuinpiirikunnassasi). Osapuolet hyväksyvät nimenomaisesti Kalifornian Santa Claran piirikunnan yksinomaisen toimivallan kaikkien riita-asioiden osalta, lukuun ottamatta vähäisiä vaatimuksia käsittelevissä tuomioistuimissa nostettuja kanteita. Näitä käyttöehtoja koskevassa riita-asiassa osapuolet sopivat luopuvansa sovellettavan lain sallimissa rajoissa kaikista oikeuksistaan valamiesoikeudenkäyntiin, paitsi silloin kuin sovellettava laki ei salli valamiesoikeudenkäynnistä luopumista.
    
    JOS ASUINPAIKKASI (TAI YRITYKSESI PÄÄTOIMIPAIKKA) ON MUUALLA KUIN YHDYSVALLOISSA: Asuinmaasi tuomioistuimet ratkaisevat kaikki vaatimukset, jotka johtuvat käyttöehdoista, palvelusta tai osapuolien välisestä suhteesta tai liittyvät niihin.
    
    
31. TOIMEENPANOKELPOISUUS. Jos jokin näiden käyttöehtojen ehto todetaan toimeenpanokelvottomaksi tai pätemättömäksi, kyseistä ehtoa tulkitaan mahdollisimman suurissa määrin sen alkuperäisen tarkoituksen mukaisesti tai rajoitetaan vain sen verran kuin on tarpeen, että käyttöehdot jäävät muuten täysin lainvoimaisiksi ja toimeenpanokelpoisiksi.
32. SOPIMUS KOKONAISUUDESSAAN. Nämä käyttöehdot ovat täydellinen ja yksinomainen lausunto osapuolien keskinäisestä yhteisymmärryksestä ja syrjäyttävät ja irtisanovat kaikki aiemmat kirjalliset ja suulliset sopimukset, ilmaisut ja muut yhteisymmärrykset, jotka koskevat näiden käyttöehtojen sisältöä. Näissä käyttöehdoissa termi ”sisältää” tai ”mukaan lukien” tarkoittaa ”sisältää (tai mukaan lukien) rajoituksetta”, eikä sen saa tulkita rajoittavan mitään yleistä ilmaisua, jota se seuraa.
33. OSAPUOLTEN VÄLINEN SUHDE. Nämä käyttöehdot eivät muodosta mitään edustajuutta, kumppanuutta, yhteisyritystä tai työsuhdetta, eikä sinulla ole mitään valtuuksia sitoa WDT:tä millään tavoin.
34. SIIRTÄMINEN. Et saa luovuttaa etkä siirtää näitä käyttöehtoja ilman WDT:n etukäteen antamaa kirjallista lupaa, paitsi jos olet yritys tai muu oikeussubjekti. Tällöin voit siirtää nämä käyttöehdot fuusion tai uudelleenjärjestelyn yhteydessä tai jos toinen yritys ostaa kaiken omaisuutesi tai merkittävän osan siitä. Sinun on kuitenkin ilmoitettava siirrosta WDT:lle 30 päivää etukäteen. WDT voi luovuttaa tai siirtää nämä käyttöehdot kokonaan tai osittain ilman rajoituksia.
35. ILMOITUKSET. Kaikki ilmoitukset, joita WDT toimittaa näiden käyttöehtojen nojalla, mukaan lukien näiden käyttöehtojen muutoksia koskevat ilmoitukset, toimitetaan sähköpostitse, julkaisemalla WDT:n verkkosivustolla tai tuotteen sisäisinä ilmoituksina. Hyväksyt, että tällaiset sähköisesti sinulle lähettämämme ilmoitukset täyttävät viestintää koskevat lakisääteiset vaatimukset.
36. LUOPUMINEN. Vaikka WDT ei käytä tai toimeenpane jotain oikeutta tai näiden käyttöehtojen ehtoa, sen ei katsota luopuvan kyseisestä oikeudesta tai ehdosta. Luopuminen oikeudesta tai ehdosta on voimassa vain, mikäli se on kirjallinen ja asianmukaisesti valtuutetun WDT:n edustajan allekirjoittama.
37. YLIVOIMAISET ESTEET. Kumpikaan osapuoli ei ole vastuussa tai korvausvelvollinen mistään sellaisesta viiveestä, toimintahäiriöstä tai palvelukatkoksesta, joka liittyy suoraan tai välillisesti syyhyn, joka ei ole kohtuudella tämän osapuolen hallinnassa.
38. APPLE-KÄYTTÄJIÄ KOSKEVAT LISÄEHDOT. Huolimatta muusta näissä käyttöehdoissa mainitusta, palvelun käyttöösi Apple Inc. -yhtiön (”Apple”) laitteilla sovelletaan tämän kohdan lisäehtoja. Ymmärrät ja hyväksyt, että nämä käyttöehdot solmitaan vain sinun ja WDT:n välillä, ei Applen; ja WDT, ei Apple, on yksin vastuussa palvelusta ja sen sisällöstä näissä käyttöehdoissa kuvatussa laajuudessa. Näissä käyttöehdoissa sinulle myönnetty lisenssi on ei-siirrettävä lisenssi palvelun käyttöön millä tahansa Applen laitteella, jonka omistat tai jota hallitset, siten kuin on sallittua AppStoren palveluehtojen käyttösääntöjen mukaisesti, paitsi että palvelua voi käyttää ja siihen voi päästä muiden Applen perhejaon kautta liitettyjen tilien kautta. WDT on yksin vastuussa palvelun huolto- ja tukipalveluista näiden käyttöehtojen mukaisesti tai sovellettavan lain edellyttämässä laajuudessa, eikä Applella ole mitään velvollisuutta antaa palvelun huolto- tai tukipalveluita. Jos palvelu ei täytä sovellettavia takuuehtoja, voit ilmoittaa siitä Applelle ja Apple palauttaa sinulle palvelun ostohinnan, ja lain sallimassa enimmäislaajuudessa Applella ei ole muita palveluun liittyviä velvoitteita, ja muut takuuehtoihin liittyvät vaatimukset, menetykset, korvausvelvollisuudet, vahingot, kustannukset tai kulut ovat yksin WDT:n vastuulla; siltä osin kuin näissä käyttöehdoissa ei siitä olla kieltäydytty ja kohdan 27 mukaisesti, WDT:n, ei Applen, velvollisuus on käsitellä valituksesi tai kolmansien osapuolien valitukset, jotka liittyvät palveluun, sen hallussapitoon ja/tai käyttöön, mukaan lukien tuotevastuuta koskevat vaatimukset sekä vaatimukset, joiden mukaan palvelu ei vastaa sovellettavia lakisääteisiä tai säädöksellisiä vaatimuksia, ja vaatimukset, jotka esitetään kuluttajansuojan tai muun vastaavan lainsäädännön nojalla; siltä osin kuin näissä käyttöehdoissa ei siitä olla kieltäydytty ja kohdan 27 mukaisesti, WDT, ei Apple, on yksin vastuussa immateriaalioikeuksia koskevien vaatimusten tutkimisesta, niihin liittyvän puolustuksen järjestämisestä sekä niiden sopimisesta ja peruuttamisesta; ja Apple ja Applen tytäryhtiöt ovat näiden käyttöehtojen kolmannen osapuolen edunsaajia, ja mikäli hyväksyt nämä käyttöehdot, Applella on oikeus (ja sen katsotaan hyväksyneen oikeuden) panna nämä käyttöehdot kanssasi täytäntöön kolmannen osapuolen edunsaajan ominaisuudessa.

    2. PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS. The Service may allow you to purchase access to certain features of the Service on a subscription basis (“Paid Subscriptions”). Paid Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the then-current billing period, unless cancelled (see Section 18 for information on how to cancel).

You may cancel your Paid Subscription at any time (see Section 18).

       To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform WDT of your decision to withdraw from the subscription by an unequivocal statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or email) (see contact details at the beginning of the TOS).

       Effects of Withdrawal. If you use your right of withdrawal, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any event not later than fifteen (15) days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to use your right of withdrawal. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.

27. LEGAL DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
    1. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION. You may contact us at Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Service. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. Each of you and we agree to use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
    2. AGREEMENT TO BINDING ARBITRATION. If we do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 27(a), then either party may initiate binding arbitration pursuant to the terms set forth in the TOS. All claims arising out of or relating to the terms set forth in the TOS (including their formation, performance, and breach), the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, scope, enforceability, or formation of the TOS, including any claim that all or any part of the TOS is void or voidable, and except as provided for in Sections 27(d)-(f). You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence in the U.S., or in Santa Clara County, California, U.S.A., at your option. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and WDT agree that this Section 27 shall survive termination of the TOS. The TOS memorializes a transaction involving interstate commerce and the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 27 shall be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).
       
       The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures or by calling 1-800-352-5267. If you initiate arbitration, to the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds Two Hundred and Fifty U.S. Dollars ($250.00), we will pay the additional cost. If we are required to pay the additional cost of the filing fees, you should submit a request for payment of fees to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. We will also be responsible for paying all other arbitration costs arising in connection with the arbitration, other than costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel, and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. You will not be required to pay fees and costs incurred by us if you do not prevail in arbitration. We will also pay JAMS to reimburse you for any portion of the filing fee that is more than what you would otherwise have to pay to file suit in a court of law. Unless otherwise agreed upon by you and WDT in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and expenses to be paid by WDT pursuant to this Section.
       
       THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.
       
       
    3. CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER. YOU AND WDT EACH FURTHER AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN OUR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU AND WDT EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth in Section 27(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
    4. EXCEPTION – U.S. SMALL CLAIMS COURT CLAIMS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court if that action is within that court’s jurisdiction and is pending only in that court.
    5. EXCEPTION – CALIFORNIA PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT (PAGA) ACTION. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.
    6. EXCEPTION – CLAIMS INVOLVING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim relating to the enforcement, infringement, or validity of (i) trade secrets, (ii) patents, (iii) copyrights, or (iv) trademarks. The parties agree that a court, not the arbitrator, may decide if a claim falls within one of these four exceptions.
    7. 30-DAY RIGHT TO OPT-OUT. You can opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by sending a written letter to Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department – Western Digital EdgeRover Arbitration Opt-Out, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. within thirty (30) days of your acceptance of the TOS, or within thirty (30) days of any subsequent modification to the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. Your letter to opt out of arbitration must include your (i) name, (ii) username, (iii) mailing address, (iv) email address, and (v) express request to opt out from the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. If you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate consistent with the procedure set forth above, all other terms and conditions set forth in the TOS shall continue to apply to your use of the Service.
    8. TIME LIMITATION. TO HELP RESOLVE ANY ISSUES BETWEEN THE PARTIES PROMPTLY AND DIRECTLY, YOU AND WDT AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT PROCEEDING REGARDING A CLAIM UNDER THE TOS MUST BE INITIATED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM FIRST AROSE; OTHERWISE THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
28. OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. The Service may include open source software that is subject to open source license terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, use of applicable open source software shall be subject to the applicable open source license terms to the extent required by the applicable licensor. WDT provides no support for applicable open source software.
29. CHOICE OF LAW.
    The TOS shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: Except as provided for in Section 27, all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The laws of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
30. EXCLUSIVE VENUE FOR LITIGATION.
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 27 do not apply, or if you have opted out of arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, California for any litigation other than small claims court actions. In the event of litigation relating to the TOS, the parties agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial, except where a jury trial waiver is not permissible under applicable law.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The courts of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
    
    
31. ENFORCEABILITY. If any provision of the TOS is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be interpreted to give the fullest possible effect to its original intent or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the TOS will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
32. COMPLETE AGREEMENT. The TOS is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and terminates all previous written and oral agreements, communications, and other understandings relating to the subject matter of the TOS. As used in the TOS, the term “include(s)” or “including” means “include(s) (or including) without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows.
33. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of the TOS, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind WDT in any respect whatsoever.
34. ASSIGNMENT. You may not assign the TOS without the prior written consent of WDT, except, if you are a company or other legal entity, you may assign the TOS in connection with a merger, re-organization, or acquisition of all or a substantial portion of your assets by another company, but only upon thirty (30)-days’ prior notice to WDT. WDT may assign or transfer the TOS, in whole or in part, without restriction.
35. NOTICES. All notices provided by WDT under the TOS, including those regarding modifications to the TOS, may be given by email, by posting on WDT’s website, or via an in-product notification. You agree that any applicable notices that we send you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements.
36. WAIVER. The failure of WDT to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of the applicable right or provision. The waiver of any applicable right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of WDT.
37. EVENTS BEYOND REASONABLE CONTROL. Neither party shall be in default or be liable for any delay, failure in performance, or interruption of service resulting directly or indirectly from any cause beyond its reasonable control.
38. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS FOR APPLE USERS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the TOS, your use of the Service with Apple Inc. (“Apple”) devices shall be subject to the following additional terms in this Section. You agree and acknowledge that: the TOS is concluded between you and WDT only, and not with Apple, and WDT, not Apple, is solely responsible for the Service and the content thereof to the extent described in the TOS; the license granted to you under the TOS is a non-transferable license to use the Service on any Apple products that you own or control and as permitted by the Usage Rules set forth in the Apple App Store Terms of Service, except that the Service may be accessed, acquired, and used by other accounts associated with the purchaser via Apple Family Sharing; WDT is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services with respect to the Service, to the extent specified in the TOS, or as required under applicable law, and Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Service; in the event of any failure of the Service to conform to any applicable warranty, if any, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the Service to you, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Service, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty, if applicable and not disclaimed herein, will be WDT’s sole responsibility; to the extent not already disclaimed in the TOS and subject to Section 27, WDT, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims from you or any third party relating to the Service or your possession and/or use of the Service, including product liability claims, any claim that the Service fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation; to the extent not already disclaimed in the TOS and subject to Section 27, WDT, not Apple, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any intellectual property rights claims; and Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of the TOS, and upon your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the TOS, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce the TOS against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

WDT may, but is not obligated to, offer a limited time trial for your Account for use with the Service, subject, in each case, to the TOS and any additional terms and conditions stated in the applicable trial offer, which we will provide to you at the time we extend the applicable offer to you. Each trial offer is subject to change by us at any time, which will apply prospectively. Eligibility for a trial offer is determined by WDT at its sole discretion, and we may limit eligibility or duration to prevent abuse. Certain Paid Subscriptions may offer a trial prior to charging your payment method. At the end of the trial period, we will charge your payment method for your next billing period, and your Paid Subscription (defined below) will automatically renew unless you cancel the Paid Subscription before the trial ends.
13. PAYMENT AND FEES.
    
    1. GENERAL. If you purchase any features of the Service that we offer for a fee (“Paid Services”), such purchase is additionally subject to the terms of the applicable provisions of our Terms of Sale (Consumer), available at https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/terms-and-conditions-of-sale-consumer In the event of any conflict with the Terms of Sale (Consumer), for purposes of the Service, the terms of the TOS control. For Paid Services, including Paid Subscriptions (defined below), you authorize us and our designated payment processors to store your payment information and other related information. You also agree to pay the applicable fees for the Paid Services, including periodic fees for Paid Subscriptions. You are responsible for any applicable taxes, duties, levies, overseas transaction fees, currency conversion fees, and any similar charges applied by your bank or payment facility provider on payments that you make in relation to and applicable to the Service. Prices are subject to change by us at any time. For Paid Subscriptions, we will provide reasonable prior notice of any applicable price increases and obtain your consent to continue. Subject to the law in your jurisdiction, payments are not subject to refund, and there are no refunds for any partially used Paid Subscription periods. If WDT terminates your Paid Subscription without cause, you will receive a pro rata refund of any pre-paid fees.
    2. PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS. The Service may allow you to purchase access to certain features of the Service on a subscription basis (“Paid Subscriptions”). Paid Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the then-current billing period, unless cancelled (see Section 18 for information on how to cancel). Paid Subscriptions are charged, at confirmation of purchase and at the start of every new billing period, unless cancelled, in accordance with the terms provided to you at the time of purchase. You may cancel your Paid Subscription at any time (see Section 18). Your cancellation must be submitted before the end of the then-current billing period to avoid incurring a charge for the upcoming billing period. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the then-current billing period. If your payment method cannot be charged for any reason (such as expiration or insufficient funds), and you have not cancelled the Paid Subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. We reserve the right to cancel your Paid Subscription if we are unable to successfully charge your payment method to renew your subscription.
    3. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL. For Paid Subscriptions, you have the right to withdraw from and cancel your subscription without giving any reason during a fifteen (15)-day withdrawal period.
       
       The withdrawal period will expire after fifteen (15) days from the day after your initial purchase or, if you are on an annual payment plan, after the start of any renewal term.
       
       To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform WDT of your decision to withdraw from the subscription by an unequivocal statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or email) (see contact details at the beginning of the TOS). The easiest way to contact WDT to exercise your right of withdrawal is through https://www.westerndigital.com/support or by sending an email to SUPPORT@WDC.COM.
       
       You may use the model of withdrawal form reproduced below, but it is not mandatory.
       
       To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
       
       Effects of Withdrawal. If you use your right of withdrawal, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any event not later than fifteen (15) days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to use your right of withdrawal. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.
       
       However, if you use your right of withdrawal whereas, previously, you expressly decided to start using the Service before the withdrawal period ends, we will keep an amount corresponding to the time period during which you used the Service until you send us your decision to cancel the Service.

However, if WDT terminates your Account without cause, you will receive a pro rata refund of any pre-paid fees.
    6. SURVIVAL. Any terms of the TOS that require or contemplate performance after the termination of the TOS, shall survive and be enforceable notwithstanding termination of the TOS.
19. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES.

27. LEGAL DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
    1. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION. You may contact us at Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Service. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. Each of you and we agree to use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
    2. AGREEMENT TO BINDING ARBITRATION. If we do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 27(a), then either party may initiate binding arbitration pursuant to the terms set forth in the TOS. All claims arising out of or relating to the terms set forth in the TOS (including their formation, performance, and breach), the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, scope, enforceability, or formation of the TOS, including any claim that all or any part of the TOS is void or voidable, and except as provided for in Sections 27(d)-(f). You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence in the U.S., or in Santa Clara County, California, U.S.A., at your option. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and WDT agree that this Section 27 shall survive termination of the TOS. The TOS memorializes a transaction involving interstate commerce and the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 27 shall be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).
       
       The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures or by calling 1-800-352-5267. If you initiate arbitration, to the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds Two Hundred and Fifty U.S. Dollars ($250.00), we will pay the additional cost. If we are required to pay the additional cost of the filing fees, you should submit a request for payment of fees to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. We will also be responsible for paying all other arbitration costs arising in connection with the arbitration, other than costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel, and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. You will not be required to pay fees and costs incurred by us if you do not prevail in arbitration. We will also pay JAMS to reimburse you for any portion of the filing fee that is more than what you would otherwise have to pay to file suit in a court of law. Unless otherwise agreed upon by you and WDT in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and expenses to be paid by WDT pursuant to this Section.
       
       THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.
       
       
    3. CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER. YOU AND WDT EACH FURTHER AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN OUR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU AND WDT EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth in Section 27(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
    4. EXCEPTION – U.S. SMALL CLAIMS COURT CLAIMS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court if that action is within that court’s jurisdiction and is pending only in that court.
    5. EXCEPTION – CALIFORNIA PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT (PAGA) ACTION. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.
    6. EXCEPTION – CLAIMS INVOLVING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim relating to the enforcement, infringement, or validity of (i) trade secrets, (ii) patents, (iii) copyrights, or (iv) trademarks. The parties agree that a court, not the arbitrator, may decide if a claim falls within one of these four exceptions.
    7. 30-DAY RIGHT TO OPT-OUT. You can opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by sending a written letter to Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department – Western Digital EdgeRover Arbitration Opt-Out, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. within thirty (30) days of your acceptance of the TOS, or within thirty (30) days of any subsequent modification to the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. Your letter to opt out of arbitration must include your (i) name, (ii) username, (iii) mailing address, (iv) email address, and (v) express request to opt out from the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. If you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate consistent with the procedure set forth above, all other terms and conditions set forth in the TOS shall continue to apply to your use of the Service.
    8. TIME LIMITATION. TO HELP RESOLVE ANY ISSUES BETWEEN THE PARTIES PROMPTLY AND DIRECTLY, YOU AND WDT AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT PROCEEDING REGARDING A CLAIM UNDER THE TOS MUST BE INITIATED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM FIRST AROSE; OTHERWISE THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
28. OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. The Service may include open source software that is subject to open source license terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, use of applicable open source software shall be subject to the applicable open source license terms to the extent required by the applicable licensor. WDT provides no support for applicable open source software.
29. CHOICE OF LAW.
    The TOS shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: Except as provided for in Section 27, all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The laws of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
30. EXCLUSIVE VENUE FOR LITIGATION.
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 27 do not apply, or if you have opted out of arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside).

If you are entering into the TOS on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind the applicable entity to the TOS. In that case, the terms “you” or “your” shall also refer to the applicable entity. If you do not have necessary authority, or if you do not agree with the TOS, you may not install, access, or otherwise use the Service.
   
   You acknowledge that the TOS is a binding legal contract between you and WDT, even though it is electronic and is not physically signed by you and WDT, and it governs your use of the Service.

If you purchase any features of the Service that we offer for a fee (“Paid Services”), such purchase is additionally subject to the terms of the applicable provisions of our Terms of Sale (Consumer), available at https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/terms-and-conditions-of-sale-consumer In the event of any conflict with the Terms of Sale (Consumer), for purposes of the Service, the terms of the TOS control. For Paid Services, including Paid Subscriptions (defined below), you authorize us and our designated payment processors to store your payment information and other related information. You also agree to pay the applicable fees for the Paid Services, including periodic fees for Paid Subscriptions. You are responsible for any applicable taxes, duties, levies, overseas transaction fees, currency conversion fees, and any similar charges applied by your bank or payment facility provider on payments that you make in relation to and applicable to the Service. Prices are subject to change by us at any time. For Paid Subscriptions, we will provide reasonable prior notice of any applicable price increases and obtain your consent to continue. Subject to the law in your jurisdiction, payments are not subject to refund, and there are no refunds for any partially used Paid Subscription periods. If WDT terminates your Paid Subscription without cause, you will receive a pro rata refund of any pre-paid fees.
    2. PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS. The Service may allow you to purchase access to certain features of the Service on a subscription basis (“Paid Subscriptions”). Paid Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of the then-current billing period, unless cancelled (see Section 18 for information on how to cancel). Paid Subscriptions are charged, at confirmation of purchase and at the start of every new billing period, unless cancelled, in accordance with the terms provided to you at the time of purchase. You may cancel your Paid Subscription at any time (see Section 18). Your cancellation must be submitted before the end of the then-current billing period to avoid incurring a charge for the upcoming billing period. Cancellation will take effect at the end of the then-current billing period. If your payment method cannot be charged for any reason (such as expiration or insufficient funds), and you have not cancelled the Paid Subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. We reserve the right to cancel your Paid Subscription if we are unable to successfully charge your payment method to renew your subscription.
    3. RIGHT OF WITHDRAWAL. For Paid Subscriptions, you have the right to withdraw from and cancel your subscription without giving any reason during a fifteen (15)-day withdrawal period.
       
       The withdrawal period will expire after fifteen (15) days from the day after your initial purchase or, if you are on an annual payment plan, after the start of any renewal term.
       
       To exercise the right of withdrawal, you must inform WDT of your decision to withdraw from the subscription by an unequivocal statement (e.g., a letter sent by post or email) (see contact details at the beginning of the TOS). The easiest way to contact WDT to exercise your right of withdrawal is through https://www.westerndigital.com/support or by sending an email to SUPPORT@WDC.COM.
       
       You may use the model of withdrawal form reproduced below, but it is not mandatory.
       
       To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
       
       Effects of Withdrawal. If you use your right of withdrawal, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any event not later than fifteen (15) days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to use your right of withdrawal. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.
       
       However, if you use your right of withdrawal whereas, previously, you expressly decided to start using the Service before the withdrawal period ends, we will keep an amount corresponding to the time period during which you used the Service until you send us your decision to cancel the Service.

27. LEGAL DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
    1. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION. You may contact us at Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Service. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. Each of you and we agree to use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
    2. AGREEMENT TO BINDING ARBITRATION. If we do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 27(a), then either party may initiate binding arbitration pursuant to the terms set forth in the TOS. All claims arising out of or relating to the terms set forth in the TOS (including their formation, performance, and breach), the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, scope, enforceability, or formation of the TOS, including any claim that all or any part of the TOS is void or voidable, and except as provided for in Sections 27(d)-(f). You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence in the U.S., or in Santa Clara County, California, U.S.A., at your option. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and WDT agree that this Section 27 shall survive termination of the TOS. The TOS memorializes a transaction involving interstate commerce and the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 27 shall be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).
       
       The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures or by calling 1-800-352-5267. If you initiate arbitration, to the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds Two Hundred and Fifty U.S. Dollars ($250.00), we will pay the additional cost. If we are required to pay the additional cost of the filing fees, you should submit a request for payment of fees to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. We will also be responsible for paying all other arbitration costs arising in connection with the arbitration, other than costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel, and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. You will not be required to pay fees and costs incurred by us if you do not prevail in arbitration. We will also pay JAMS to reimburse you for any portion of the filing fee that is more than what you would otherwise have to pay to file suit in a court of law. Unless otherwise agreed upon by you and WDT in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and expenses to be paid by WDT pursuant to this Section.
       
       THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.
       
       
    3. CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER. YOU AND WDT EACH FURTHER AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN OUR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU AND WDT EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth in Section 27(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
    4. EXCEPTION – U.S. SMALL CLAIMS COURT CLAIMS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court if that action is within that court’s jurisdiction and is pending only in that court.
    5. EXCEPTION – CALIFORNIA PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT (PAGA) ACTION. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.
    6. EXCEPTION – CLAIMS INVOLVING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim relating to the enforcement, infringement, or validity of (i) trade secrets, (ii) patents, (iii) copyrights, or (iv) trademarks. The parties agree that a court, not the arbitrator, may decide if a claim falls within one of these four exceptions.
    7. 30-DAY RIGHT TO OPT-OUT. You can opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by sending a written letter to Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department – Western Digital EdgeRover Arbitration Opt-Out, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. within thirty (30) days of your acceptance of the TOS, or within thirty (30) days of any subsequent modification to the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. Your letter to opt out of arbitration must include your (i) name, (ii) username, (iii) mailing address, (iv) email address, and (v) express request to opt out from the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. If you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate consistent with the procedure set forth above, all other terms and conditions set forth in the TOS shall continue to apply to your use of the Service.
    8. TIME LIMITATION. TO HELP RESOLVE ANY ISSUES BETWEEN THE PARTIES PROMPTLY AND DIRECTLY, YOU AND WDT AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT PROCEEDING REGARDING A CLAIM UNDER THE TOS MUST BE INITIATED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM FIRST AROSE; OTHERWISE THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
28. OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. The Service may include open source software that is subject to open source license terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, use of applicable open source software shall be subject to the applicable open source license terms to the extent required by the applicable licensor. WDT provides no support for applicable open source software.
29. CHOICE OF LAW.
    The TOS shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: Except as provided for in Section 27, all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The laws of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
30. EXCLUSIVE VENUE FOR LITIGATION.
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 27 do not apply, or if you have opted out of arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, California for any litigation other than small claims court actions. In the event of litigation relating to the TOS, the parties agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial, except where a jury trial waiver is not permissible under applicable law.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The courts of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
    
    
31. ENFORCEABILITY. If any provision of the TOS is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be interpreted to give the fullest possible effect to its original intent or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the TOS will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
32. COMPLETE AGREEMENT. The TOS is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and terminates all previous written and oral agreements, communications, and other understandings relating to the subject matter of the TOS. As used in the TOS, the term “include(s)” or “including” means “include(s) (or including) without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows.
33. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of the TOS, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind WDT in any respect whatsoever.
34. ASSIGNMENT. You may not assign the TOS without the prior written consent of WDT, except, if you are a company or other legal entity, you may assign the TOS in connection with a merger, re-organization, or acquisition of all or a substantial portion of your assets by another company, but only upon thirty (30)-days’ prior notice to WDT. WDT may assign or transfer the TOS, in whole or in part, without restriction.
35. NOTICES. All notices provided by WDT under the TOS, including those regarding modifications to the TOS, may be given by email, by posting on WDT’s website, or via an in-product notification. You agree that any applicable notices that we send you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements.
36. WAIVER. The failure of WDT to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of the applicable right or provision. The waiver of any applicable right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of WDT.
37. EVENTS BEYOND REASONABLE CONTROL. Neither party shall be in default or be liable for any delay, failure in performance, or interruption of service resulting directly or indirectly from any cause beyond its reasonable control.
38. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS FOR APPLE USERS. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the TOS, your use of the Service with Apple Inc.

       Effects of Withdrawal. If you use your right of withdrawal, we shall reimburse to you all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any event not later than fifteen (15) days from the day on which we are informed about your decision to use your right of withdrawal. We will carry out such reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction.
       
       However, if you use your right of withdrawal whereas, previously, you expressly decided to start using the Service before the withdrawal period ends, we will keep an amount corresponding to the time period during which you used the Service until you send us your decision to cancel the Service.

In addition, WDT may terminate your Account if there is a general discontinuance of the Service or any part thereof. If we decide to discontinue the Service, we will give you reasonable prior notice.
    4. RETENTION OF YOUR CONTENT.

Please review our Privacy Statement (see Section 3) for more information about the choices you have regarding Your Content.
    5. REFUNDS.

However, if WDT terminates your Account without cause, you will receive a pro rata refund of any pre-paid fees.
    6. SURVIVAL. Any terms of the TOS that require or contemplate performance after the termination of the TOS, shall survive and be enforceable notwithstanding termination of the TOS.
19. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WDT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR VIRUS-FREE, NOR DOES IT MAKE ANY WARRANTY AS TO THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM USE OF THE SERVICE, AND NO INFORMATION OR ADVICE OBTAINED BY YOU FROM WDT OR THROUGH THE SERVICE SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THE TOS.

27. LEGAL DISPUTES AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
    1. INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION. You may contact us at Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Service. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. Each of you and we agree to use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
    2. AGREEMENT TO BINDING ARBITRATION. If we do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of sixty (60) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 27(a), then either party may initiate binding arbitration pursuant to the terms set forth in the TOS. All claims arising out of or relating to the terms set forth in the TOS (including their formation, performance, and breach), the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. Each party will have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. The parties shall select a single neutral arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, scope, enforceability, or formation of the TOS, including any claim that all or any part of the TOS is void or voidable, and except as provided for in Sections 27(d)-(f). You may choose to engage in arbitration hearings by telephone. Arbitration hearings not conducted by telephone shall take place in a location reasonably accessible from your primary residence in the U.S., or in Santa Clara County, California, U.S.A., at your option. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions, shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and WDT agree that this Section 27 shall survive termination of the TOS. The TOS memorializes a transaction involving interstate commerce and the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 27 shall be governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).
       
       The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures or by calling 1-800-352-5267. If you initiate arbitration, to the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds Two Hundred and Fifty U.S. Dollars ($250.00), we will pay the additional cost. If we are required to pay the additional cost of the filing fees, you should submit a request for payment of fees to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. We will also be responsible for paying all other arbitration costs arising in connection with the arbitration, other than costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel, and other out-of-pocket costs and expenses not constituting fees or amounts payable to JAMS. You will not be required to pay fees and costs incurred by us if you do not prevail in arbitration. We will also pay JAMS to reimburse you for any portion of the filing fee that is more than what you would otherwise have to pay to file suit in a court of law. Unless otherwise agreed upon by you and WDT in writing, the arbitrator shall determine the amount of fees, costs, and expenses to be paid by WDT pursuant to this Section.
       
       THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.
       
       
    3. CLASS ACTION AND CLASS ARBITRATION WAIVER. YOU AND WDT EACH FURTHER AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION SHALL BE CONDUCTED IN OUR RESPECTIVE INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU AND WDT EACH EXPRESSLY WAIVE OUR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION OR SEEK RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS, INCLUDING U.S. FEDERAL OR STATE CLASS ACTIONS, OR CLASS ARBITRATIONS. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth in Section 27(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
    4. EXCEPTION – U.S. SMALL CLAIMS COURT CLAIMS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court if that action is within that court’s jurisdiction and is pending only in that court.
    5. EXCEPTION – CALIFORNIA PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT (PAGA) ACTION. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim arising under California’s Private Attorneys General Act.
    6. EXCEPTION – CLAIMS INVOLVING INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a court of law for a claim relating to the enforcement, infringement, or validity of (i) trade secrets, (ii) patents, (iii) copyrights, or (iv) trademarks. The parties agree that a court, not the arbitrator, may decide if a claim falls within one of these four exceptions.
    7. 30-DAY RIGHT TO OPT-OUT. You can opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by sending a written letter to Western Digital Technologies, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department – Western Digital EdgeRover Arbitration Opt-Out, 5601 Great Oaks Parkway, San Jose, CA 95119, U.S.A. within thirty (30) days of your acceptance of the TOS, or within thirty (30) days of any subsequent modification to the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. Your letter to opt out of arbitration must include your (i) name, (ii) username, (iii) mailing address, (iv) email address, and (v) express request to opt out from the arbitration agreement set forth in this Section 27. If you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate consistent with the procedure set forth above, all other terms and conditions set forth in the TOS shall continue to apply to your use of the Service.
    8. TIME LIMITATION. TO HELP RESOLVE ANY ISSUES BETWEEN THE PARTIES PROMPTLY AND DIRECTLY, YOU AND WDT AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT PROCEEDING REGARDING A CLAIM UNDER THE TOS MUST BE INITIATED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM FIRST AROSE; OTHERWISE THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
28. OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE. The Service may include open source software that is subject to open source license terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, use of applicable open source software shall be subject to the applicable open source license terms to the extent required by the applicable licensor. WDT provides no support for applicable open source software.
29. CHOICE OF LAW.
    The TOS shall not be governed by the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: Except as provided for in Section 27, all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The laws of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
30. EXCLUSIVE VENUE FOR LITIGATION.
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) THE U.S.: To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 27 do not apply, or if you have opted out of arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Santa Clara County, California (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Santa Clara County, California for any litigation other than small claims court actions. In the event of litigation relating to the TOS, the parties agree to waive, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to a jury trial, except where a jury trial waiver is not permissible under applicable law.
    
    IF YOU RESIDE IN (OR YOUR PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS IS IN) A COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF THE U.S.: The courts of your country of residence will apply to all claims arising out of or relating to the TOS, the Service, or the parties’ relationship with each other.
    
    
31. ENFORCEABILITY. If any provision of the TOS is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be interpreted to give the fullest possible effect to its original intent or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the TOS will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable.
32. COMPLETE AGREEMENT. The TOS is the complete and exclusive statement of the mutual understanding of the parties and supersedes and terminates all previous written and oral agreements, communications, and other understandings relating to the subject matter of the TOS. As used in the TOS, the term “include(s)” or “including” means “include(s) (or including) without limitation” and shall not be construed to limit any general statement that it follows.
33. RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment is created as a result of the TOS, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind WDT in any respect whatsoever.
34. ASSIGNMENT. You may not assign the TOS without the prior written consent of WDT, except, if you are a company or other legal entity, you may assign the TOS in connection with a merger, re-organization, or acquisition of all or a substantial portion of your assets by another company, but only upon thirty (30)-days’ prior notice to WDT. WDT may assign or transfer the TOS, in whole or in part, without restriction.
35. NOTICES. All notices provided by WDT under the TOS, including those regarding modifications to the TOS, may be given by email, by posting on WDT’s website, or via an in-product notification. You agree that any applicable notices that we send you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements.
36. WAIVER. The failure of WDT to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the TOS shall not constitute a waiver of the applicable right or provision. The waiver of any applicable right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of WDT.
37. EVENTS BEYOND REASONABLE CONTROL. Neither party shall be in default or be liable for any delay, failure in performance, or interruption of service resulting directly or indirectly from any cause beyond its reasonable control.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS. The Terms of Service (the “TOS”) describes your rights and obligations that are applicable to your use of the EdgeRover service provided to you by Western Digital Technologies, Inc. (“WDT,” “we,” “us,” “our”), including WDT’s data computation and storage services and any other WDT services that link to the TOS; all software, firmware, Updates (defined below), and related documentation that may be made available by or on behalf of WDT in connection with the EdgeRover service, including WDT’s web, mobile, and desktop applications (the “Software”); and all websites, data, text, images, and other content made available by or on behalf of WDT through any of the foregoing (all of the preceding in this Section 1 collectively referred to as the “Service”). WDT is the provider of the Service, which may permit you to use certain services, including indexing, searching, organizing, storing, and accessing Your Content (defined below). Please read the TOS carefully because you will be legally bound by the terms and conditions in the TOS. WDT only provides the Service to you subject to the TOS. For WDT software or services that are accompanied by a separate agreement, the terms of that separate agreement will govern your use of that WDT software or services. By accepting the TOS or by installing, accessing, or using the Service, you represent and warrant to WDT that you have the full right and authority to enter into the TOS, and you agree to be bound by the TOS (including the Privacy Statement, available at https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/privacy-statement, and the Acceptable Use Policy, available at  https://www.westerndigital.com/legal/acceptable-use-policy, both of which are incorporated here by reference). If you are entering into the TOS on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind the applicable entity to the TOS. In that case, the terms “you” or “your” shall also refer to the applicable entity. If you do not have necessary authority, or if you do not agree with the TOS, you may not install, access, or otherwise use the Service.
   
   You acknowledge that the TOS is a binding legal contract between you and WDT, even though it is electronic and is not physically signed by you and WDT, and it governs your use of the Service.

If we make a material change to the TOS, we will provide you with reasonable notice prior to the effective date of the changes by sending an email to the email address associated with your account with EdgeRover (“Account”), by posting a notice on this website, or via an in-product notification. The revised terms and conditions of the TOS will become effective on the earlier of the date you accept the revised terms and conditions or on the date set forth in the applicable notice. By accepting the revised terms and conditions or by accessing or using the Service after the effective date of the revised terms and conditions, you agree to be bound by the revised terms and conditions of the TOS. If any change to the TOS is not acceptable to you, you must terminate your Account as described in Section 18 and stop using the Service.
