Furthermore, You, Advertiser and Agency each acknowledge and agree that nothing in these Beta Terms or in any voluntary submission of Feedback provided by You, Advertiser or Agency creates any employment or independent contractor relationship between You, Advertiser or Agency and Hulu.

YOU, ADVERTISER AND AGENCY EACH EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR, ADVERTISER’S AND AGENCY’S PARTICIPATION IN THE BETA PROGRAM AND USE OF THE BETA PRODUCT IS AT YOUR, ADVERTISER’S AND AGENCY’S OWN RISK. THE BETA PRODUCT IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IS PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY, ACCURACY OR CONTENT OF ANY INFORMATION, SERVICES, OR PRODUCTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE BETA PROGRAM. SPECIFICALLY, YOU, ADVERTISER AND AGENCY EACH AGREE THAT YOU, ADVERTISER AND/OR AGENCY MAY ENCOUNTER CERTAIN BUGS, TEMPORARY SERVICE OUTAGES, OR LOSS OF CERTAIN FUNCTIONALITIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BETA PRODUCT.

HULU MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS THAT HELP ADMINISTER AND OPERATE ANY ASPECT OF THE BETA PROGRAM.

IN NO EVENT SHALL HULU OR ITS PARENT, AFFILIATES, SUCCESSORS, AND ASSIGNS, AND EACH OF THEIR RESPECTIVE INVESTORS, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS (INCLUDING THOSE WHO HELP ADMINISTER AND OPERATE THE BETA PROGRAM), AGENTS, AND SUPPLIERS (INCLUDING DISTRIBUTORS AND CONTENT LICENSORS) (COLLECTIVELY, THE “HULU PARTIES“), BE LIABLE UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, HOWEVER CAUSED, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE BETA PROGRAM OR THE BETA PRODUCT, OR THE DELIVERY OF AD(S) VIA THE HULU WEBSITE OR APPLICATIONS, EVEN IF THE HULU PARTIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

9. Termination.

The term of these Beta Terms will commence on the date of Your, Advertiser’s or Agency’s, as applicable, first acceptance of these Ad Manager Beta Terms and continue until the earliest of:

  1. The date specified by Hulu as being the end of the period of the Beta Program.

At the end of the Term or upon Your, Advertiser’s or Agency’s decision to stop participating in the Beta Program:

  1. You, Advertiser and Agency, as applicable, will promptly deliver to Hulu all Confidential Information, or destroy and certify the destruction of all Confidential Information associated with the Beta Product; and
  2. The rights granted to You, Advertiser and Agency under these Beta Terms with respect to the Beta Product and the Confidential Information will immediately terminate. Hulu’s ownership of Your, Advertiser’s and Agency’s already-submitted Feedback, as well as Your, Advertiser’s and Agency’s confidentiality obligations as they relate to the Beta Product, the various limitations on Hulu’s liability, and the dispute resolution process, among others, will survive any expiration or termination of these Beta Terms.

10. Arbitration of Claims.

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY.

In the event of a dispute, controversy or claim (hereinafter, a “Dispute“) arising out of our relating to these Beta Terms and/or the Tool, You, Advertiser or Agency must send to Hulu a Notice of Dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving the notice, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and the relief requested. You must send any Notice of Dispute to Hulu to Hulu, LLC, 2500 Broadway, 2nd Floor, Santa Monica, California 90404, Attn: Legal. We will send any Notice of Dispute to You, Advertiser or Agency at the contact information we have for You, Advertiser or Agency, as applicable.

The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute for a period of 30 days from the date a Notice of Dispute is received. If the parties cannot resolve the Dispute informally as provided above, any unresolved Dispute arising out of or relating to use of the Tool, these Beta Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in Los Angeles County, California pursuant to the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, effective June 1, 2021 (the “JAMS Rules“). The JAMS Rules and instructions about how to initiate an arbitration are available at www.jamsadr.com or 1-800-352-5267.

The parties shall mutually select a single, neutral arbitrator. If the parties cannot agree on such arbitrator, the arbitrator shall be selected in accordance with the JAMS Rules. Unless the parties agree otherwise, the neutral arbitrator will be a retired judge of any California state or federal court with a minimum of 15 years’ experience resolving commercial disputes. The arbitrator will provide a detailed written statement of decision, which will be part of the arbitration award and admissible in any judicial proceeding to confirm, correct or vacate the award. The arbitral award shall be based upon the law and the facts, and the arbitrator shall have no greater authority to consider equitable factors than would the Superior Court of the State of California. The arbitrator is not authorized to award any punitive or exemplary damages whatsoever, and the parties will not seek to collect or enforce any part of any award inconsistent with this limitation on the authority of the arbitrator.

Either party may appeal an award exceeding $500,000.00 through the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure, effective 2003. If either party refuses to perform any or all of its obligations under the final arbitration award (following appeal, if applicable) within thirty (30) days of an award being rendered, then the other party may enforce the final award in any court of competent jurisdiction. The party seeking enforcement shall be entitled to an award of all costs, fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred in enforcing the award, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered.

YOU, ADVERTISER, AGENCY AND HULU AGREE TO ARBITRATE IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY ONLY, NOT AS A REPRESENTATIVE OR MEMBER OF A CLASS, AND EACH OF US EXPRESSLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO FILE A CLASS ACTION, A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH A PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR SEEKS RELIEF ON A CLASS BASIS. NO ARBITRATION PROCEEDING CAN BE COMBINED WITH ANOTHER WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF ALL PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATIONS OR PROCEEDINGS.

As an exception to this arbitration agreement, You, Advertiser and/or Agency may pursue in small claims court any claim that is within that court’s jurisdiction as long as You, Advertiser and/or Agency proceeds only on an individual basis.

Adherence to this dispute resolution provision shall not limit any party’s right to obtain any provisional remedy, including without limitation, injunctive or similar relieve from any court of competent jurisdiction.

11. Export Controls.

Software and the transmission of applicable technical data, if any, in connection with the Beta Product are subject to export controls. You, Advertiser and Agency agree to comply with all applicable laws regarding software and the transmission of technical data exported from the United States or the country in which you reside.

12. Entire Agreement; Severability; Assignment.

These Beta Terms and the Disney Campaign Manager Terms are the parties’ entire agreement governing Your, Advertiser’s and Agency’s participation in the Beta Program, and supersede any prior agreements or understandings between You, Advertiser and/or Agency and Hulu in relation to the Beta Program. These Beta Terms operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. If any provision of these Beta Terms or the application of any such provision is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect, without regard to the invalidity of the provision, and these Beta Terms shall be construed as if the provision had never been in these Beta Terms. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between these Beta Terms and the Disney Campaign Manager Terms, the Disney Campaign Manager Terms shall govern. Neither You, Advertiser nor Agency may assign or transfer any rights, or delegate any duties, under these Beta Terms without Hulu’s prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, transfer or delegation without such consent shall be void. Hulu can assign or otherwise transfer Hulu’s rights under these Beta Terms without consent from You, Advertiser or Agency.
