Upper Deck shall have no liability to you or any third party in the event that Upper Deck exercises any such rights. If you purchase Virtual Items in the Game, the transaction will be conducted through a third party (i.e. Apple or Google) and is governed by the terms of that third party.

Upper Deck may suspend, terminate, modify, or delete any user’s account at any time for any reason, no reason, with or without notice. Upper Deck reserves the right to limit the number of accounts a user can establish. This limit may change over time in Upper Deck’s sole and absolute discretion.

You are not allowed to sublicense, trade, sell or attempt to sell Virtual Items for legal tender, money, or exchange Virtual Items for value of any kind.

GOVERNING LAW, ARBITRATION, CLASS WAIVER
This Agreement is made in and will be construed under the laws of the State of California, County of San Diego. If you have any concerns or queries regarding the Game or Upper Deck’s related services, please contact the customer services team at customer_service@upperdeck.com. Most concerns are quickly resolved in this manner. You agree to use your best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or other disagreement directly through consultation with Upper Deck. This is a precondition to you initiating arbitration as described below.
If the above process is unsuccessful, any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating in any way to the provisions of this Agreement ("Claim") shall be resolved by one arbitrator through binding arbitration administered by a retired judge on the Judicate West panel in San Diego, California. The parties shall select a mutually acceptable arbitrator knowledgeable about issues relating to the subject matter of this Agreement. (In the event the parties are unable to agree to such a selection, each party will select an arbitrator and the arbitrators in turn shall select a third arbitrator.) This clause is made pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act and the Claim will be decided by arbitration in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of Judicate West then in effect as modified herein. The FAA shall apply to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and formation of these terms.
The arbitration shall be conducted in accord with this arbitration provision and the Judicate West Rules, which may limit discovery. The arbitrator shall not apply any federal or state rules of civil procedure for discovery, but the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law and shall take reasonable steps to protect confidential information. If arbitration is instituted in connection with any controversy arising out of this Agreement or to interpret or enforce any rights under this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall reimburse the prevailing party for all reasonable attorney’s fees and costs resulting therefrom. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding upon the parties hereto, and the expense of the arbitration will be shared equally between the parties. Judgment upon the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for a judicial acceptance of the award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. The award or decision by the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive and judgment may be entered upon such award by any court. Prior to, during, and following any arbitration, the parties agree that they shall not hold any form of press conference or in any way publicize any matters regarding or related to such arbitration or Claim.
Notwithstanding the above, to the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate Upper Deck’s intellectual property rights, or the intellectual property rights of its affiliates or subsidiaries, Upper Deck may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the State of California, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts for such matter.
Any Claim must be brought in the respective party’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, representative, multiple plaintiffs, or similar proceeding ("Class Action"). The parties expressly waive any ability to maintain any Class Action in any forum. The arbitrator shall not have authority to combine or aggregate similar claims or conduct any Class Action nor make an award to any person or entity not a party to the arbitration. Any claim that all or part of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT THEY WOULD HAVE HAD A RIGHT TO LITIGATE THROUGH A COURT, TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE THEIR CASE AND TO BE PARTY TO A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. HOWEVER, THEY UNDERSTAND AND CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY CLAIMS DECIDED INDIVIDUALLY, THROUGH ARBITRATION.
The Game and related documentation are "Commercial Items", as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. §2.101, consisting of "Commercial Computer Software" and "Commercial Computer Software Documentation", as such terms are used in 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202, as applicable. Consistent with 48 C.F.R. §12.212 or 48 C.F.R. §227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4, as applicable, the Commercial Computer Software and Commercial Computer Software Documentation are being licensed to U.S. Government end users (a) only as Commercial Items and (b) with only those rights as are granted to all other end users pursuant to the terms and conditions herein. Unpublished-rights reserved under the copyright laws of the United States.
Upper Deck may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to this Agreement and the Privacy Policy, by email or notifications on the Game, but this section places no requirements on Upper Deck not already expressly set forth herein.
The failure to enforce any term or provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver by Upper Deck. No term or provision of this Agreement will be considered waived, and no breach excused, by Upper Deck unless such waiver or consent is in writing and signed on behalf of Upper Deck. Any consent by Upper Deck to, or waiver of, a breach by any user, shall not constitute consent to, waiver of, or excuse of any other, different, or subsequent breach by any user.
This Agreement, which incorporates the Privacy Policy, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Upper Deck with respect to the Game. Upper Deck may modify or amend this Agreement at any time and for any reason, and your continued use of the Game provides affirmative and continued acceptance of the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and any modifications thereof.
