15. Choice of Law; Venue. These Terms and Conditions are entered into in the State of Nevada and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada, exclusive of its choice of law rules requiring the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. Subject to Section 16, all disputes arising under these Terms and Conditions shall be resolved exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada. Each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts, and waives any right to claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum or lack personal jurisdiction over such party.
16. Disputes; Mandatory Arbitration. Except for cases involving claims for injunctive relief, you and RISE agree that all controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and RISE relating to these Terms and Conditions or arising out of your access to or use of any of the Website, including any products or services furnished through the Website (each, a “Claim”) will be resolved through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. This agreement to arbitrate means that you and RISE each waive your respective rights to a jury trial. Any and all Claims must be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures that are in effect at the time arbitration is initiated (“JAMS Rules”). If you decide to initiate arbitration, you agree to pay an arbitration initiation fee of $250 (unless the fee is waived as discussed below), and RISE will pay the remainder of the arbitration initiation fee and all other costs of the arbitration proceeding, including the arbitrator’s fees. Notwithstanding the venue selected in Section 15, the arbitration will be held in Clark County, Nevada (provided that either party may participate remotely).
For information on filing your Demand for Arbitration, you may contact JAMS toll free at (800) 352-5267. To start an arbitration, you must do all of the following:
(1) Write a demand for arbitration (your “Demand for Arbitration”). Your Demand for Arbitration must include a description of the Claim and the amount of damages sought to be recovered, and you must attach a copy of all of these Terms and Conditions (including this arbitration provision). You can find a form of a demand for arbitration on the JAMS rules page at www.jamsadr.com.
(2) Send one (1) copy of your Demand for Arbitration to RISE at: Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP, 2029 Century Park East, Los Angeles, CA 90067, Attn: Steven Hurdle at SHurdle@willkie.com.
(3) Send two (2) copies of your Demand for Arbitration (with a copy of these Terms and Conditions attached) and proof of service of your Demand for Arbitration on RISE at the address noted in subsection (2) above (for example, a copy of a certified mail return receipt requested or a sworn statement of service by a non-party over eighteen (18) years of age) to the JAMS Resolution Center of your choice (JAMS Resolution Centers are listed at www.jamsadr.com.
(4) Pay JAMS a two hundred and fifty dollar ($250.00) arbitration initiation fee, unless you are entitled to a waiver of the fee under applicable law.
In the event RISE elects to start an arbitration with you, RISE must write a Demand for Arbitration and send two (2) copies of it to JAMS and serve one (1) copy of RISE’s Demand for Arbitration to you at the contact information that we have on file for you. RISE will pay all costs of the arbitration proceeding, including the arbitrator’s fees, for any arbitration that RISE commences.
The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single, neutral arbitrator selected in accordance with JAMS Rules. The arbitrator will render an award in accordance with JAMS Rules. Any award may be challenged if the arbitrator awards any relief that could not be awarded under the laws of the state in which the arbitration is held or in which the award is to be enforced. Except for the foregoing, the arbitrator’s decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any federal or state court that has jurisdiction. You and RISE agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies.
The terms of this Section do not preclude you or RISE from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and RISE also have the right to bring qualifying Claims in small claims court, notwithstanding the requirement to arbitrate Claims set forth herein. In addition, you and RISE retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for public injunctive relief and/or provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request will not be deemed incompatible with these Terms and Conditions, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms and Conditions.
Neither you nor RISE may act as a class representative, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or RISE’s individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated. Accordingly, you and RISE agree that the JAMS Class Action Procedures do not apply to RISE’s arbitration. This arbitration provision and the procedures applicable to the arbitration contemplated by this provision are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, notwithstanding any state law that may be applicable.
A court may sever any portion of this Section that it finds to be unenforceable, except for the prohibitions on any Claim being handled on a class or representative basis. No waiver of any provision of this Section will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver will not waive or affect any other portion of these Terms and Conditions. This Section will survive the termination of your relationship with RISE and any termination of your access to and/or use of all or any part of any of the Website.
Important: This Section limits certain rights, including the right to maintain a court action, the right to a jury trial, the right to participate in any form of class or representative claim, the right to engage in discovery except as provided in the JAMS Rules, and the right to certain remedies and forms of relief. Other rights that you or RISE would have in court also may not be available in arbitration.
17. Entire Agreement. These Terms and Conditions, as may be amended from time-to-time by RISE in its sole discretion, constitute the entire agreement between RISE and you pertaining to the subject matter hereof. Certain provisions of these Terms and Conditions may be superseded by expressly designated legal notices or terms located on particular pages within this Website.

9. Glossary
Browser Web Storage enables websites to store data in a browser on a device. When used in “local storage” mode, it enables data to be stored across sessions. This makes data retrievable even after a browser has been closed and reopened. One technology that facilitates web storage is HTML 5.
A Cookie is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. When you visit the site again, the cookie allows that site to recognize your browser. Cookies may store user preferences and other information. You can configure your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, some website features or services may not function properly without cookies.
A Pixel or Pixel Tag is a type of technology placed on a website or within the body of an email for the purpose of tracking certain activity, such as views of a website or when an email is opened. Pixel tags are often used in combination with cookies.
An Application Data Cache is a data repository on a device. It can, for example, enable a web application to run without an internet connection and improve the performance of the application by enabling faster loading of content.
Interest-based Advertising is sometimes referred to as personalized or targeted ads. Interest-based ads are used to display features, products, and services that might be of interest to the user.
To serve interest-based ads, we may use information such as your interactions with our Platform, Services and related content. We do not use information which on its own identifies you, such as name or e-mail address, to serve interest-based ads. As is common in the advertising industry, we use cookies, pixels, and other technologies which enable us to understand the effectiveness of the interest-based ads we show you by measuring what ads are clicked or viewed, and to provide you with more useful and relevant ads. For example, if we know what ads are shown to your browser, we can be careful not to show the same ads repeatedly. We work with third parties, such as advertisers, publishers, social media networks, search engines, ad serving companies, and advertising companies working on their behalf, to improve the relevance of ads we serve.
Advertisers and other third parties may assume or infer that users who interact with or click on an interest-based ad or content are part of the group that the ad or content is directed towards (for example, users in a particular geographical area or users who purchased or browsed for classical music). Third party advertisers or advertising companies working on their behalf sometimes use cookies in the process of delivering content, including ads, directly to your browser or device, and they may automatically receive an IP address when this happens. They may also use cookies to measure the effectiveness of their ads, show you more relevant advertising content, and perform services on behalf of RISE.
Server Logs. Like most websites, our servers automatically record the page requests made when you visit our sites. These “server logs” typically include your web request, Internet Protocol address, browser type, browser language, the date and time of your request, and one or more cookies that may uniquely identify your browser.
Session Replay provides the ability to replay a visitor’s journey on a web site or within a mobile application or web application. Replay can include the user’s view (browser or screen output), user input (keyboard and mouse inputs), and logs of network events or console logs. Session replay is used to help improve customer experience, analyze usability and help identify obstacles in conversion processes on websites. It can also be used to study a website’s usability, customer behavior, interests, and the handling of customer service questions as the customer journey, with all interactions, can be replayed. It can also be used to analyze fraudulent behavior on websites.
A Unique Identifier is a string of letters, numbers and characters that can be used to uniquely identify a computer, device, personal device, browser or app.
Different identifiers vary in how permanent they are, whether they can be reset by users, and how they can be accessed. Unique Identifiers can be used for various purposes, including security and fraud detection, syncing data from your device(s) to our Platform, remembering your preferences, and providing personalized advertising. You can configure your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. See your browser documentation for additional information.
On other platforms besides browsers (e.g., personal devices), Unique Identifiers are used to recognize a specific device or app on that device. For example, a Unique Identifier can be used to provide relevant advertising on mobile devices and can be managed in your device’s settings. Unique identifiers may also be incorporated into a device by its manufacturer (sometimes called a universally unique ID or UUID), such as the IMEI-number of a mobile phone. For example, a device’s unique identifier can be used to customize our Platform and Services to your device or analyze device issues related to our Platform and Services.
TERMS OF SALE AND WAIVER OF LIABILITY
In consideration of being permitted to participate in any way in any event (“Activity” or “Activities”) at any time hosted by Rise Festival, LLC (“RISE”, “us” or “we”), I (“Customer”, “I” or “you”), for myself, my personal representatives, assigns, heirs, and next of kin agree to become bound by the terms of this agreement (the “Agreement”).

Notwithstanding the issuance of tickets through this website, we, the venue operator, and/or a Promoter may cancel the Event, in each case in such party’s sole discretion.

If any of these items are found, the license for admission shall be immediately revoked or Customer will be immediately removed from the Event (Customer’s refusal to submit to such a search shall also lead to the immediate revocation of the license and denial of admission to or immediate removal from the Event)

- GOVERNING LAW: This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Nevada.
- IMPORTANT BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER PROVISIONS.
CLASS ACTIONS WAIVER: BOTH PARTIES AGREE THAT DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND NEITHER PARTY MAY BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR IS NOT AUTHORIZED TO CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS FROM MULTIPLE INDIVIDUALS OR PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. HOWEVER, THE ARBITRATOR MAY GRANT ALL RELIEF AVAILABLE IN COURT, INCLUDING PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF, BUT ONLY AS AUTHORIZED BY LAW AND JUSTIFIED BY THE CLAIMS.
It’s important to understand how we handle disagreements. If any issues arise concerning this Agreement, we aim to resolve them amicably. However, if a dispute can’t be settled through discussion, we’ve agreed to use binding arbitration or small claims court (if your claim qualifies) to reach a resolution. THIS MEANS YOU AND RISE WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN CLASS ACTIONS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDINGS.
Either you or RISE can still bring an individual action in small claims court if it qualifies. Also, disputes related to intellectual property theft, piracy, or unauthorized use can be brought in state or federal courts.
Arbitration will be conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules (or the Consumer Arbitration Rules, if applicable) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement. A single arbitrator will oversee the arbitration, and the arbitrator will have the authority to decide all issues related to the dispute, including the scope, enforceability, and applicability of the arbitration agreement. The parties agree to use the “rank and strike” method to select an arbitrator. The arbitration hearing will be held at a location in the United States that’s reasonably convenient for both you and RISE. If we can’t agree on a location, the AAA will decide. This arbitration requirement remains in effect even after the termination of this Agreement or any other agreement between the parties. The payment of filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. If you initiate arbitration and seek relief valued at $10,000 or less, we will advance all costs and fees, subject to potential reimbursement. If the relief sought exceeds $10,000 and you demonstrate that arbitration costs would be higher than court costs, we will pay the additional costs. If the arbitrator finds your claims to be frivolous, you will be responsible for reimbursing us for the costs we advanced.
You can choose not to be bound by this arbitration agreement and class action waiver. To opt out, you must send a written notice to RISE within thirty (30) days of first using RISE Services or agreeing to this Agreement. The notice should be emailed to info@risefestival.com and include the subject line “ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT”.
- ENTIRE AGREEMENT: This Agreement, including all documents incorporated by reference, constitutes the entire understanding between RISE and the Customer regarding the Event and supersedes any prior agreements or representations.
- SEVERABILITY: If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions shall not be affected and shall remain valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any invalid or unenforceable provision shall be replaced with a valid and enforceable provision that most closely reflects the original intent of the parties.
- MODIFICATIONS TO THE AGREEMENT: We may modify the terms of this Agreement at any time. When we do so, we will notify you when you visit our website.
- TRADEMARKS. Customer acknowledges that “RISE” and the RISE logo/symbol are registered trademarks of RISE; and that RISE has the exclusive right to license and enforce those trademarks along with its other intellectual property (collectively, “RISE Intellectual Property”). WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF RISE, CUSTOMER UNDERSTANDS THAT CUSTOMER MAY NOT USE ANY RISE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OR EVENT CONTENT IN ANY ADVERTISEMENT OR PROMOTIONAL MATERIAL (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, IN MUSIC VIDEOS OR IN POSTS ON COMMERCIAL SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS), OR IN THE TITLE OR ON THE COVER OF ANY PUBLICATION, unless the use is authorized by this Agreement or constitutes a fair use under United States law.
