with payment terms in effect at the time the fee or the charge becomes payable. All purchases made through the Services, including, but not limited to, purchases of Boost, are final and nonrefundable. No refunds of any kind whatsoever shall be granted.
The Gizer Marketplace offers individuals, freelancers, and businesses the opportunity to sell
services or products directly to other users. As a listed business or service in the Gizer
Marketplace, you agree to an affiliate revenue program with Gizer in which Gizer will retain a
percentage of the price paid for said service or product.
5.3. Entry Fees and Payment
Gizer may offer esports Contests that will require an Entry Fee, which will be listed in U.S.
Dollars (“USD”) or in Boost. The Entry Fee may vary from Contest to Contest. It is Your
responsibility to know and understand the Rules and required Entry Fees for any given Contest.
Upon entering a Contest, the Entry Fee will be deducted from the funds in Your Account. You
may review charges relating to Your Account by viewing the Statements within Your Account.
In the event of a dispute regarding the identity of the person submitting an entry into a Contest,
the entry will be deemed submitted by the person in whose display name the entry was
submitted, or if possession of the display name itself is contested, the name of the Authorized
Account Holder. “Authorized Account Holder” is defined as the natural person who is the age of
majority in his or her Jurisdiction of residence and who is assigned to an email address by an
Internet access provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, education
institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with
the submitted email address for registration with the Services.
By inputting a payment method to deposit USD, purchase Boost, and participate in Gizer
Contests, the Authorized Account Holder hereby affirms that the Authorized Account Holder is
the lawful owner of the payment method account used to make any deposit(s). It shall be a
violation of these Terms for any Authorized Account Holder to submit payment using any
payment method that is not owned by the Authorized Account Holder.
You accept full responsibility of any Contests entered into by Your Account and acknowledge
that You have not relied on any statement, representation or advice from Us in deciding
whether to enter into a Contest. You also acknowledge that by using the Services and entering
into Contests with Entry Fees, You may lose such Entry Fees and this will preclude You from
issuing a chargeback on any non-fraudulent transaction. Any participation in which Entry Fees
will be paid is at Your sole discretion and risk.
By entering into a Contest, You warrant that You do not know the outcome of the subject
matter of the Contest. We reserve the right, in Our sole discretion, to deny any User the ability
to participate in any Contests for any reason whatsoever. Further, We reserve the right to
declare as void a Contest or Your entry into a Contest and its associated Entry Fees if, in Our sole
discretion, We suspect (i) a User or persons associated with a User unfairly influence the
outcome of a Contest; (ii) a User is in breach of these Terms, including, without limitation the
respective Contest Rules; or (iii) the result of a Contest may be or has been directly or indirectly
affected by abusive or criminal activity.
We reserve the right to cancel or void any Contests, in Our sole discretion which shall be final
and binding, if in Our reasonable opinion, there is a manifest error in the subject Contests or a
technological failure occurred within the subject Contests.
Winners are based on the results of the Contest. The results and winners of each Contest
offered on the Services will be determined by Us at Our sole discretion and such determinations
are final. By registering an Account and/or participating in any Contest, You agree to be bound
by these determinations and agree to cooperate with Our efforts to reverse prize payouts.
The Users in each Completed Contest who win the Contest (e.g., accumulate the most points,
kills, etc.) and comply with eligibility requirements and applicable Contest Rules will win the
corresponding prizes for that Contest. In the event that two or more Users tie in a Contest, the
prize will be divided evenly among those Users. Gizer offers a number of different types of
Contests. For each Contest, We announce the Entry Fee and corresponding prize in advance on
the Contest page.
No substitution or transfer of prize is permitted except at Our sole discretion. All prizes are
awarded AS IS and WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, express or implied, (including, without
limitation, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose) by Us. If
any legal authority challenges the award and/or Your receipt of a prize for winning a Contest on
the Services, We reserve the right to revoke, cancel, suspend, substitute, or modify the award of
such prize.
Except in circumstances where technical failure, Our inability to verify Your compliance with
these Terms, or other reasons prevent timely payout, all USD payouts will be deposited directly
into Your Account within seventy-two (72) hours. Any amounts that are mistakenly credited as a
payout to Your Account remain Our property and will automatically be transferred from Your
Account upon confirmation of the error. Any payouts mistakenly credited to Your Account that
have been withdrawn by You before confirmation of the error will constitute a debt owed by
You to Us in the amount of such wrongfully attributed payout.
It is the policy of Gizer, in compliance with United States Internal Revenue Service regulations,
to send an IRS Form 1099 or other appropriate form to any resident of the United States of
America who wins in excess of six hundred dollars ($600 USD) in any given year. Depending on
the Jurisdiction in which You reside, Gizer may also send You additional, similar tax forms.
However, You remain solely responsible for paying all federal and other taxes in accordance
with the laws that apply in Your state and/or country of residence. All taxes associated with the
receipt of any prize are the sole responsibility of the winner.
5.6. Affidavit of Eligibility

eligibility, a copy of Your driver’s license, Proof of Residence, information regarding payment or
deposit accounts to assist with withdrawals, a liability release and, where lawful, a publicity
release within seven (7) days of issuance. If such documents are not returned within the
specified time period, or if You are not in compliance with these Terms, the prize will be
forfeited and may be awarded to another potential winner at Our discretion.
5.7. Collusion, Cheating and Fraud
If You suspect that any User or third party may be cheating by undertaking one of the following
reportable actions listed below, You must report such activity to Our Customer Support Team by

information) (“Pre-Release Data”); or
- (vi) using multiple Accounts.
Such activities are prohibited and We will take all reasonable steps to investigate any such
complaints and, where possible, prevent such activities. We shall not be held liable for any form
of loss sustained by You as a result of any of the prohibited activities or any other unlawful
activity of persons using the Services.

participated in any form of collusion or fraudulent practice, regardless of Your knowledge or
innocence. Gizer shall not be held liable for any consequences that arise from Your use or
misuse of the Services.
If We become aware or suspect that a transaction is suspicious and involves or may involve
financial crime or similar activity then We reserve the right to retain the amount of that
transaction and any other transaction made by You. In addition, We reserve the right to retain
any funds related to that activity and the balance on the Accounts in question, in order to
disburse them to the relevant authorities. We shall be under no obligation to provide You with
any reasons for these actions. If the activity and transactions are cleared of any suspicions all
retained funds will be made available to You.
Where We suspect that You are participating in any form of collusion, fraudulent practices or
money laundering activities, We reserve the right to report such activity to the relevant
authorities and regulators, online service providers, banks, credit card companies, electronic
payment providers or other financial institutions including details of Your identity and You agree
to cooperate fully with Us to investigate any such activity.

Account will appear on Your statement as being affiliated with ‘GIZER.’ All payments are final
and no refunds will be issued. At any time, if requested, You agree to assist Us in verifying Your
Account.
Minimum and maximum limits may be applied to Your deposits into Your Account as well as
withdrawals, depending upon Your history with the Services, Your profile, capability to pay, the
method of deposit, and other factors as determined solely by Us, and the Customer Support
Team may request additional identification documents from Users as part of this process. We
are not a bank and funds are not insured by any governmental agency. In consideration for Your
use of the Services, You irrevocably transfer and assign to Us any ownership right that You may
have in any interest that may accrue on funds maintained in Your Account. This assignment
applies only to interest earned on Your funds, and does not grant Us any ownership right to the
principal of the funds You maintain in Your Account with Us, subject to these Terms. All
payments into Your Account must be from a payment source on which You are the named
account holder.
Depending on Your selected method of payment, fees may be payable by You as a result of
depositing funds into Your Account and will be treated as an independent charge by the relevant
payment or network provider, for which You accept full responsibility. Please note that we do
not store Your Credit or Debit Card number. It is passed straight through to Our PCI-DSS
Compliant Payment Service Provider, where it is securely stored.
Gizer reserves the right to raise queries to You regarding the source of any USD or Boost
deposited into Your Account, as is required by anti-money laundering regulations, and You agree
to cooperate with Us regarding such inquiries. We may suspend or terminate Your Account if
Your provided answers, or lack thereof, are unsatisfactory at Our sole discretion.
You may only make deposits into Your Account for the purpose of using the Services and We
reserve the right to suspend or terminate Your Account in the event that We, in Our sole
discretion, suspect that You are using Your Account for other purposes.
Gizer maintains segregated User bank accounts which at all times have sufficient funds to cover
all monies owed by Gizer to its Users. Gizer will maintain funds in User Accounts as required by
law.
6.2. Bonuses and Promotions
From time to time, Gizer may offer bonuses to newly depositing or purchasing Users and for
other marketing purposes. Any bonuses and/or promotions are subject to their respective terms
and requirements. Additionally, any bonus a new User receives is for entry into Contests and can
only be withdrawn if the bonus has been previously entered into at least one (1) Contest. Unless
otherwise stated, any unconverted pending bonus remaining in a User’s Account forty-five (45)
days after it has been initially credited can be removed by Gizer. Additionally, if a User
immediately withdraws USD or Boost after a deposit, which delivers a deposit bonus then the
bonus will be retracted. In the event of abuse of the bonus system by any User, Gizer reserves
the right to retract the User’s bonuses as they deem appropriate.
Boost sales and purchases are nonrefundable. You may request a withdrawal of USD funds only
from the available account balance in Your Account at any time subject to these Terms and upon
verification of Your identity and eligibility. To be eligible to withdraw any funds related to a
promotional offer, You must have complied with the Promotional Terms and Conditions
associated with such offer. Upon receipt/use of promotional funds You are bound by the
promotion’s Promotional Terms and Conditions.
Additionally, Account holders with pending deposits must wait until those funds clear before
requesting a withdrawal. You must be a named account holder on any bank account associated
with Your Account. The processing of requested funds back to Your registered account may take
up to five (5) business days or ten (10) business days of submission of any tax reporting
paperwork required by law; provided, however, Gizer reserves the right to freeze Your Account
and/or delay a request for withdrawal of funds pending completion of any investigation of
reported or suspected abuse by a User requesting withdrawal of funds or other conduct that
would put Gizer, Inc. in violation of applicable state law. Withdrawals of funds will display on
Your bank statement as ‘GIZER.’ If You do not receive Your withdrawal within the
above mentioned time, please send an email to [email protected], with the subject heading
“Fund Withdrawal.” For the purposes of this provision, a request for withdrawal will be
considered honored if it is processed by Gizer but delayed by a payment processor, credit card
issuer, or by the custodian of a financial account.
Depending on Your selected method of withdrawal, fees may be payable by You as a result of
withdrawing funds from Your Account and will be treated as an independent charge by the
relevant payment provider, for which You accept full responsibility. These fees, if applicable, will
be made clear to You when withdrawing funds from Your Account. Unless electronic payments
are utilized, checks for withdrawal requests are processed within fourteen (14) business days,
and are delivered via U.S. Mail.
We reserve the right to require You to submit verification of identification to ascertain the
validity of a withdrawal request and Your identity. Withdrawal payments will not be made until
such verification is received; if We have not received verification within ten (10) days, the
withdrawal request will be cancelled and the Account in question may be suspended.
If Your Account is closed by Us for a violation of the Terms, We reserve the right to determine
whether to declare as void any transaction(s) placed by You and Your deposits and winnings may
be voided and not returned to You. In such an event, We use these funds to defray the costs of
administration and enforcement of the Terms.
7. Third-Party Payment Processors
Gizer uses third-party electronic payment processors and financial institutions (“Payment Processors”)
to process payments. The information that We provide to and receive from these Payment Processors
and the manner in which such information is used and disclosed is described in further detail in the
Gizer Privacy Policy. Users irrevocably authorize Us, as necessary, to instruct such Payment Processors to
handle payments and Users irrevocably agree that Gizer may give such instructions on a User’s behalf in
accordance with User requests as submitted through the Services. Users agree to be bound by the terms
and conditions of each applicable Payment Processor, and in the event of a conflict between these
Terms and the Payment Processors’ terms and conditions, then these Terms shall prevail. Users agree
that Gizer is not liable for any loss caused by any unauthorized use of credit cards or other methods of
payment by a third party in connection with a User’s use of the Services, except as a result of the gross
negligence of Gizer.

10. Interactive Services and User Content
10.1. Interactive Services
The Services may contain message boards, chat rooms, profiles, forums, bulletin boards, and
other interactive features that allow Users to post, submit, publish, display, or transmit to
others content, such as audio, video, text, or other materials (collectively, “User Content”).
Users understand and acknowledge that by using the Services, Users may be exposed to User
Content that Users may consider to be objectionable and/or inaccurate and that their use of the
Services constitutes their acceptance of such risk.
All User Content must comply with the Content Standards set out in Section 10.3 of this
Agreement. Any User Content Users post on or through the Services will be considered nonconfidential
and non-proprietary. By posting any User Content on or through the Services, Users
grant Gizer and its respective licensees, successors, and assigns the right to use, reproduce,
modify, perform, display, distribute, sell, exploit, and otherwise disclose to third parties any
such material for any purpose, without restriction, and without compensation to Users. Users
represent and warrant that:
- (i) Users own or control all rights in and to their User Content;
- (ii) Users have the right to grant the license granted above to Gizer and its respective licensees,
successors and assigns; and
- (iii) all of their User Content does and will comply with this Agreement.
Users understand and acknowledge that Users are responsible for any User Content they submit
or contribute, and Users, not Gizer, have full responsibility for such content, including its
legality, reliability, accuracy and appropriateness. If You delete User Content from the Services,
Our general license to that User Content will end after a reasonable period of time required for
the deletion to take full effect. However, the User Content may still exist in Our backup copies,
which are not publicly available. If Your User Content is shared with third parties, those third
parties may have retained copies of Your User Content. In addition, if We made use of Your User
Content before You deleted it, We will continue to have the right to make, duplicate,
redistribute, and sublicense those pre-existing uses, even after You delete the User Content.
Terminating Your Account on the Services will not automatically delete Your User Content. User
Content becomes public information, can be collected and used by others, and may result in the
receipt of unsolicited messages from third parties. Gizer discourages Users from posting any
personal information that can be used to identify or locate Users, such as User addresses, email
addresses, or phone numbers.
IF A USER CHOOSES TO POST ANY PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION ON OR THROUGH
THE SERVICES, SUCH USER DOES SO AT HIS/HER OWN RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GIZER IS NOT RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE TO ANY PERSON OR THIRD PARTY
FOR THE CONTENT OR ACCURACY OF ANY CONTRIBUTIONS POSTED BY ANY USER OF THE
SERVICES.
10.2. Monitoring and Enforcement; Termination
Gizer does not undertake a review of material before it is posted on or through the Services, and
cannot ensure prompt removal of objectionable material after it has been posted. Accordingly,
Gizer assumes no liability for any action or inaction regarding transmissions, communications, or
content provided by any User or third party. Gizer has no liability or responsibility to anyone for
performance or nonperformance of the activities described in this section. Gizer does reserve
the right, however, at its sole discretion, to take any of the following actions:
- 10.2.1. Remove or refuse to post any User Content for any or no reason;
- 10.2.2. Take any action with respect to any User Content that Gizer deems
necessary or appropriate, including, without limitation, if Gizer believes that
any User Content violates this Agreement, infringes any intellectual
property right or other right of any person or entity, threatens the personal
safety of other Users or the public or could create liability for Gizer;
- 10.2.3. Disclose User identity or other information about Users to any third party
who claims that material posted by Users violates their rights, including
their intellectual property rights or their right to privacy;
- 10.2.4. Take appropriate legal action, including, without limitation, referral to law
enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of the Services; and
- 10.2.5. Terminate or suspend access to Your User Account or all or part of the
Services for any or no reason, including, without limitation, any violation of
this Agreement.
Without limiting the foregoing, Gizer reserves the right to fully cooperate with any law
enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing Us to disclose the identity or
other information of anyone posting any materials on or through the Services.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS,
INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
Users agree to work with Gizer in good faith to resolve any dispute, controversy, disagreement or claim
(“Dispute”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or their use of the Services before escalating to
binding arbitration or litigation, as addressed below. The following steps are available to Users:
18.1. Initial Dispute Resolution
Users must give Gizer an opportunity to resolve the Dispute by sending an email to
[email protected], with the subject line “Dispute” or mailing Gizer Inc., Attn: Customer Support
Team, 38 Carmine Street, STE 4W, New York, New York, 10014, USA. The written notification of
Dispute must include: (i) the User’s name and email address; (ii) a written description of the
Dispute; and (iii) a description of the specific relief the User seeks. The parties agree to use their
best efforts to resolve Disputes using this Initial Dispute Resolution process.
18.2. Escalate to Management
Should You be in any way dissatisfied with the resolution provided by the Customer Support
Team regarding Your query, dispute or complaint, You can request that the matter be escalated to a member of our Management Team. Once received our Management Team will personally
review and respond to Your query, dispute or complaint. Please allow up to three (3) business
days for a response.
18.3. Binding Arbitration
Should a User be in any way dissatisfied with the resolution provided by the Management Team
regarding the Dispute or in the event that the parties are unable to resolve the Dispute within
fourteen (14) days of Gizer’s receipt of the User’s written notification, then either party may
initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve the Dispute, subject to the terms set
forth below. Specifically, all Disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms (including its
formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or a User’s
use of the Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American
Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration
Rules and the Consumer-Related Disputes Supplementary Procedures of the AAA, excluding any
rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions.
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, enforceability
or formation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this
Agreement is void or voidable, or whether a claim is subject to arbitration. Except for the award
of any punitive damages, 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 binding on the parties
and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration
undertaking is made pursuant to and in connection with a transaction involving interstate
commerce, and shall be governed by and construed and interpreted in accordance with the
Federal Arbitration Act at 9 U.S.C. Section 1, et seq. This arbitration provision shall survive
termination of this Agreement.
Each party shall bear its own costs in connection with any arbitration proceedings. The parties
shall equally share the fees of the arbitration and the arbitrator. The Commercial Arbitration
Rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at (800)
778-7879.
The parties further agree that arbitration shall be initiated in Manhattan, New York, USA and to
submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Manhattan, New York, USA in order
to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or
enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
18.3.2. Class Action Waiver
The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities
only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive
their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. USERS AND GIZER AGREE THAT
EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES
AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE
PROCEEDING.
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 above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the
parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
18.3.3. Exception - Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court
Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through binding arbitration, either
party may bring an action in a state or federal court located in Manhattan, New York, USA to protect
or enforce intellectual property rights. Intellectual property rights include patents, copyrights,
moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights. Either party may
also seek relief in a small claims court located in Manhattan, New York, USA for disputes or claims
within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. The laws of the State of New York shall be applied in
any litigation proceedings, without regard to principles of conflict of laws. Users further agree to
accept service of process by mail.
For any claims, other than litigation of intellectual property rights and claims made in small
claims court, that are not subject to arbitration the parties agree that litigation shall be initiated
in Manhattan, New York, USA and agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state
court in Manhattan, New York, USA. The parties hereby waive any argument that any such court does
not have personal jurisdiction or that the location of Manhattan, New York, USA is not appropriate or
convenient. The parties further agree to waive any and all rights to trial by jury with respect to
any claims.
In the event that either party initiates a proceeding involving any claim other than an arbitration
in accordance with this Section, or initiates a proceeding involving a claim under this Section
other than in Manhattan, New York, USA the other party shall recover all attorneys’ fees and
expenses reasonably incurred in enforcing these Terms to arbitrate and the location to which
the parties have herein agreed.
18.3.5. 30-Day Right to Opt-Out
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF THE BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
PROVISIONS SET FORTH ABOVE WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST
CONSENT TO THIS AGREEMENT (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). Users may opt-out of these provisions
by mailing written notification to Gizer Inc., Attn: Gizer Legal, 38 Carmine Street, STE 4W, New
York, New York, 10014, USA. The written notification must include (i) the User’s name and address
and (ii) a clear statement that the User does not wish to resolve disputes with Gizer through
binding arbitration. A decision to opt-out of these provisions will have no adverse effect on the
User’s relationship with Gizer. If Users opt-out of these provisions, Gizer also will not be bound
by them. Any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and Users
must pursue their Dispute through binding arbitration or small claims court.
19.1. Relationship of Parties/No Third Party Beneficiaries
Users agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists
between Users and Gizer as a result of this Agreement or their use of the Services. Users agree
not to hold themselves out as representatives, agents, operators, distributors, or employees of
Gizer and Gizer shall not be liable for any of their representations, acts, or omissions. Users also
agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, there shall be no third
party beneficiaries to this Agreement.
Gizer may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any
person or entity at any time with or without the Users’ consent. Upon such assignment, Gizer may be relieved of any further obligation hereunder. Users may not assign or delegate any rights
or obligations under this Agreement without Gizer’s prior written consent, and any
unauthorized assignment and delegation by Users is void and ineffective.
19.3. Waiver/Severability
No failure or forbearance on Gizer’s part to exercise its rights or insist upon performance of
obligations hereunder is to be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of those or any other
rights or obligations in that or any other instance; rather, the same shall remain in full force and
effect.
If any provision of this Agreement is deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable,
such provision shall be narrowed in scope or otherwise amended to the extent necessary to
make such provision lawful, valid and enforceable while as nearly as possible reflecting the
intent of the parties as expressed in this Agreement, or, if such amendment is impossible,
severed from this Agreement. No amendment or severing of any provision of this Agreement
shall affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining provisions.
19.4. Circumvention/Indemnification
Users agree that they shall not circumvent or attempt to circumvent these Terms or the Services
or otherwise interrupt or attempt to interrupt the operations of Gizer (collectively, a
“Circumvention Act”). If Gizer determines, at its sole discretion, that Users have engaged, or
attempted to engage, in any Circumvention Act, or to otherwise commit fraud with regard to
the Services, then, in such an event, Gizer reserves the right to institute civil or criminal
proceedings against such Users and to report such Users to the relevant regulatory authorities.
Users further agree to indemnify, save, and hold harmless Gizer and the Gizer Providers from
any claims, losses, damages, liabilities, including legal fees and expenses, arising out of their use
or misuse of the Services, any violation by Users of this Agreement, or any breach of the
representations, warranties, and covenants made by Users herein. Gizer reserves the right, at
the Users’ expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which the
Users are required to indemnify Gizer, and Users agree to cooperate with Gizer’s defense of
these claims. Gizer will use reasonable efforts to notify Users of any such claim, action, or
proceeding upon becoming aware of it. Users agree that the provisions in this paragraph will
survive any termination of their Gizer Account or of the Services.
Gizer shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from unforeseen
circumstances or causes outside its reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of
God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents,
network infrastructure failures, strikes, medical epidemics, or shortages of transportation
facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.
Gizer may notify Users via postings in the Services, via email and/or any other method of
communication to the contact information Users provide to Us. All questions, complaints, or
claims pertaining to the Services as well as any notices given by Users or required from Users
under these Terms shall be in writing and directed to:

Email: [email protected]
Any notices Users provide that do not comply with this Section 19.6 shall have no legal effect.
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between Users and Gizer with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all prior or contemporaneous
understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter. Any waiver of any
provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by Gizer.
19.8. Reservation of Rights
Gizer reserves the right to enforce its Terms if Gizer, in its sole discretion, determines that the
services provided by a content provider’s platform (including but not limited to websites, mobile
applications, web-based applications, desktop-based applications, or social media accounts) is
detrimental to the Company brand or brands, including, without limitation, in any manner that
is disparaging or that otherwise portrays Gizer in a negative light, or has a negative impact on
the integrity of Gizer's product or business operations.
20. Governmental Compliance
Gizer’s performance of this Agreement is subject to existing laws and legal process, and nothing
contained in this Agreement is in derogation of Gizer’s right to comply with governmental, court, and
law enforcement requests or requirements relating to use of the Services or information provided to or
gathered by Gizer with respect to such use.
