Health and Safety Warnings. In the event you use a virtual reality headset
in connection with the Software, please read the warnings in the below
carefully before using the headset or the Software to reduce the risk of
personal injury, discomfort or property damage. By using the Software, you
represent and warrant that you have read and understand these warnings and
instructions. We may update or revise these warnings and instructions, so
please review them periodically.
(a) Before Using the headset. Review the hardware and software
recommendations for use of the headset. Your Headset and the
Software are not designed for use with any unauthorized device,
accessory and/or software. Use of an unauthorized device,
accessory and/or software may result in injury to you or others,
may cause performance issues or damage to your system and related
services. Before using the headset, please read and follow all
setup and operating instructions provided by the manufacturer of
the headset. People who are prone to motion sickness in the real
world may have a heightened risk of experiencing discomfort while
using a headset in connection with the application. Such
individuals should take extra care to read and following these
warnings carefully. ARVORE recommends seeing a doctor before using
the headset in connection with the Software if you are pregnant,
elderly, have pre-existing binocular vision abnormalities or
psychiatric disorders, or suffer from a heart condition or other
serious medical condition.
(b) General Instructions and Precautions. USE ONLY IN A SAFE
ENVIRONMENT. The use of headsets distracts you from and completely
blocks your view of your actual surroundings. Always be aware of
your surroundings when using a headset and remain seated at all
times. Take special care to ensure that you are not near other
people, objects, stairs, balconies, windows, furniture, or other
items that you can bump into or knock down when using or
immediately after using a headset. Do not handle sharp or
otherwise dangerous objects while using a headset. Take at least
a 10 to 15-minute break every 30 minutes, even if you do not think
you need it. Each person is different, so take more frequent and
longer breaks if you feel discomfort. Listening to sound at high
volumes can cause irreparable damage to your hearing. Background
noise, as well as continued exposure to high volume levels, can
make sounds seem quieter than they actually are. Due to the
immersive nature of the virtual reality experience in the Software,
do not use a headset with the sound at high volume so that you can
maintain awareness of your surroundings and reduce the risk of
hearing damage.
(c) Seizures. Some people may have severe dizziness, seizures,
epileptic seizures or blackouts triggered by light flashes or
Page 11 of 12
patterns, and this may occur while they are watching TV, playing
video games or using any virtual reality applications, even if
they have never had a seizure or blackout before or have no history
of seizures or epilepsy. Such seizures are more common in children
and young people under the age of 20. Anyone who has had a seizure,
loss of awareness, or other symptom linked to an epileptic
condition should see a doctor before using a headset in connection
with the Software.
(d) Discomfort. Immediately discontinue use of your headset when using
the Software if anyone using the headset experiences any of the
following symptoms: seizures; loss of awareness; eye strain; eye
or muscle twitching; involuntary movements; altered, blurred or
double vision or other visual abnormalities; dizziness;
disorientation; impaired balance; impaired hand-eye coordination;
excessive sweating; increased salivation; nausea; lightheadedness;
discomfort or pain in the head or eyes; fatigue; or any symptoms
similar to motion sickness. Using virtual reality games and
applications can make your muscles, joints or skin hurt. If any
part of your body becomes tired or sore while using it, or if you
feel symptoms such as tingling, numbness, burning or stiffness,
stop and rest for several hours before using it again. If you
continue to have any of the above symptoms or other discomfort
during or after use, stop and see a doctor.
(e) Children. The headset should not be used by children under the age
of 13. Adults should make sure children (age 13 and older) use the
headset in accordance with these health and safety warnings
including making sure the headset is used as described in the
Before Using the headset section and the General Instructions and
Precautions section. Adults should monitor children (age 13 and
older) who are using or have used the headset for any of the
symptoms described in these health and safety warnings (including
those described under the Discomfort section), and should limit
the time children spend using the headset and ensure they take
breaks during use.
Indemnification. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless ARVORE
and its affiliates and their respective owners, directors, officers,
managers, employees, agents, contractors, advertisers and partners from
any claim or demand, including, without limitation, reasonable attorney
fees, that may be asserted or filed by any third party, arising out of or
relating to your use of the Software or any product or service available
through the Software, your submission or provision of user content to the
Software, your violation of these Terms or any other violation by you of
the rights of another person or party.

General. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us with
respect to the subject matter and supersedes and merges any prior
proposals, understandings and contemporaneous communications. These Terms
will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United
States, without regard to or application of conflicts of law rules or
principles. By using our Software, you consent to personal jurisdiction
and venue in the state courts of California for any lawsuit arising from
or relating to these Terms or the Software.
You may not assign your rights or delegate your obligations under these
Terms without our prior written consent. You acknowledge and agree that no
partnership is formed between you and ARVORE by virtue of these Terms, and
neither party has the power or the authority to obligate or bind the other.
The waiver by us of a breach of any provision of these Terms will not be
taken or held to be a waiver of the provision itself. If any provision of
these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to
law, such provision will be changed and interpreted so as to best accomplish
the objectives of the original provision to the fullest extent allowed by
law, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in full force
and effect. You hereby agree that ARVORE would be irreparably damaged if
the terms of this Agreement were not specifically enforced, and therefore
you agree that we are entitled, without bond, other security, or proof of
damages, to appropriate equitable remedies with respect to breaches of
this agreement, in addition to such other remedies as we may otherwise
have available to us under applicable laws.
You agree that we may provide you with notices, newsletters, including
notices regarding changes to these Terms, by email, regular mail or
postings on the Service. Any communication or notice that you provide to
us will be provided by email at legal@ arvore.io.
