Terms of Service

Welcome to Tulip. Tulip provides a platform through which individuals ("Participants") take part in studies, evaluations, and research tasks concerning the behavior, quality, and naturalness of artificial intelligence models and systems. These Terms of Service (these "Terms") describe the terms and conditions by which you may access and/or use the website(s), including https://withtulip.ai and any successor URL(s), and any and all related software, platforms, mobile applications, documentation, and online and/or digital services (collectively, the "Service") provided by Tulip Productions LLC (including its successors and assigns, "Tulip," "we," "our," or "us"). By accessing and/or using the Service, or by clicking a button or checking a box marked "I Agree" or the equivalent, you signify that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, and you acknowledge that you have read and understood our Privacy Policy, as further described in Section 10.1 (Privacy). We reserve the right to modify these Terms, and we will provide notice of material changes as described below. These Terms apply to all visitors and users of the Service, and to all others who access the Service (collectively, "Users," and, as applicable to you, "you" or "your").

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND EACH PROVISION. THESE TERMS CONTAIN A MANDATORY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROVISION AND A CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER PROVISION IN SECTION 18 (THE "ARBITRATION AGREEMENT") THAT REQUIRE, UNLESS YOU OPT OUT PURSUANT TO THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US, INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS THAT AROSE OR WERE ASSERTED BEFORE YOU AGREED TO THESE TERMS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW (AS DEFINED BELOW), YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO SEEK RELIEF IN A COURT OF LAW AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON YOUR CLAIMS, AS WELL AS YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

THESE TERMS ALSO CONTAIN, IN SECTION 4 (GRANT OF RIGHTS; OWNERSHIP OF STUDY RESPONSES), AN ASSIGNMENT TO TULIP OF ALL RIGHT, TITLE, AND INTEREST IN AND TO THE MATERIALS YOU SUBMIT THROUGH THE SERVICE, AND A WAIVER OF MORAL RIGHTS THEREIN. PLEASE READ THAT SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE SUBMITTING ANY MATERIALS.

IN ADDITION, WHEN USING THE SERVICE, YOU MAY BE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO A PARTICULAR STUDY, TASK, OR FEATURE ("SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS") THAT MAY BE POSTED ON THE SERVICE FROM TIME TO TIME, OR PRESENTED TO YOU FOR YOUR ACCEPTANCE WHEN YOU SIGN UP FOR OR ACCESS SUCH STUDY, TASK, OR FEATURE, INCLUDING ANY STUDY INSTRUCTIONS, SCREENING CRITERIA, CONSENT FORMS, OR COMPENSATION SCHEDULES. ALL SUCH TERMS ARE HEREBY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THESE TERMS. IF THE TERMS SET FORTH HEREIN ARE INCONSISTENT WITH THE SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS, THEN THE SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS CONTROL WITH RESPECT TO SUCH STUDY, TASK, OR FEATURE, BUT ONLY TO THE EXTENT OF SUCH INCONSISTENCY.

1. How We Administer the Service

1.1 Eligibility

This is a contract between you and Tulip. You must read and agree to these Terms before using the Service. If you do not agree, you may not use the Service. You may use the Service only if you can form a legally binding contract with us, and only in compliance with these Terms and all applicable local, state, national, and international laws, rules, and regulations ("Applicable Law"). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any access to, or use of, the Service by anyone who is a minor (which is under the age of 18 in most jurisdictions) in any applicable jurisdiction is strictly prohibited and in violation of these Terms. You must additionally be able to read, write, and comprehend English at a level sufficient to complete study tasks, and must satisfy any further eligibility or screening criteria specified for a given study. The Service is not available to any Users we previously removed from the Service.

1.2 No Employment Relationship

You acknowledge and agree that you participate in studies as an independent contractor and not as an employee, agent, joint venturer, or partner of Tulip for any purpose. You are not entitled to any of the benefits that Tulip may make available to its employees, including, without limitation, health insurance, paid leave, retirement benefits, workers' compensation insurance, or unemployment insurance. You are solely responsible for determining the manner and means by which you complete any task, subject only to the instructions applicable to that task, and for all taxes, withholdings, and contributions arising from any Compensation paid to you. Nothing in these Terms creates any obligation on the part of Tulip to offer you any particular study, any minimum volume of tasks, or any minimum amount of Compensation.

2. User Accounts

2.1 Your User Account

Your account on the Service (your "User Account") gives you access to certain services and functionalities that we may, in our sole discretion, establish and maintain as part of the Service from time to time. You acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, you do not own your User Account, nor do you possess any rights to data stored by or on behalf of Tulip on the servers running the Service. We may maintain different types of User Accounts for different types of Users, and may extend, restrict, or condition access to particular studies on the basis of screening criteria, prior participation, or quality history.

2.2 Connecting Via Third-Party Services

By connecting to the Service via a third-party service, including by signing in with Google, you give us permission to access and use your information from that service, as permitted by that service, and to store your log-in credentials and/or access tokens for that service.

2.3 Account Security

You may never use another User's User Account without such User's permission. When creating your User Account, you must provide accurate and complete information, and you must keep this information up to date. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your User Account, you will keep your User Account password(s) and/or any other authentication credentials secure, and you will not share your password(s) and/or any other authentication credentials with anyone else. We encourage you to use strong passwords (passwords that use a combination of upper- and lower-case letters, numbers, and symbols) to protect your User Account. We will not be liable for, and expressly disclaim liability for, any losses caused by any unauthorized use of your User Account and/or any changes to your User Account. You will notify us promptly of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your User Account.

2.4 One Account Per Person

You may hold only one User Account. You will not create, operate, or control more than one User Account, whether directly or through any other person, and will not permit any other person to complete tasks on your behalf or under your credentials. Creating or operating multiple User Accounts, or completing tasks using another person's identity or eligibility characteristics, constitutes a material breach of these Terms and, in addition to any other remedy available to us, entitles us to void and withhold all Compensation associated with the affected User Accounts.

2.5 Account Settings

You may control certain aspects of your User Account and any associated Participant profile, and of the way you interact with the Service, by changing the settings in your settings page. By providing us with your email address, you consent to our using that email address to send you Service-related notices, including any notices required by Applicable Law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. We may also use that email address to send you other messages, including, without limitation, study invitations, availability notifications, and marketing and advertising messages, such as messages notifying you of changes to features of the Service (collectively, "Marketing Emails"). If you do not want to receive Marketing Emails, you may opt out of receiving them or change your preferences by contacting us at the contact provided in Section 19.11 (Contact) or by clicking on the "unsubscribe" link within a Marketing Email. Opting out will not prevent you from receiving Service-related notices.

2.6 Changes, Suspension, and Termination

You may de-activate your User Account at any time. We may, with or without prior notice, change the Service, stop providing the Service or features of the Service to you or to Users generally, or create usage limits for the Service. We may, with or without prior notice, permanently terminate or temporarily suspend your access to your User Account and/or the Service without liability, with or without cause, and for any or no reason, including if, in our sole determination, you violate any provision of these Terms. Upon their termination for any reason or no reason, you continue to be bound by these Terms in accordance with Section 19.8 (Survival).

3. Access to the Service; Study Participation

3.1 Access to the Service

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and any documentation we may make available to you, you are hereby granted a non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, and freely revocable right to access and use the Service, solely for the purpose of participating in studies as a Participant, strictly as permitted by the features of the Service. We may terminate the license granted in this Section at any time, for any reason or no reason. We reserve all rights not expressly granted herein in and to the Service.

3.2 Study Responses

From time to time, Tulip or its research partners may invite you to participate in a study, evaluation, survey, comparison, annotation, red-teaming exercise, or other research task made available through the Service (each, a "Study"). In the course of a Study you may create, generate, or provide to Tulip (either through a User Account or via email or such other mutually agreed upon method of delivery) certain materials, including but not limited to ratings, rankings, scores, preference judgments, comparisons, labels, annotations, free-text commentary, transcripts, written explanations and rationales, prompts and other inputs you compose and submit to an artificial intelligence model, records of your interactions with any such model, audio recordings of your voice, video and audiovisual recordings of you, still images of you, screen recordings, and any other related content submitted on or through the Service (collectively, "Study Responses"). The terms and conditions of these Terms apply to all Study Responses, regardless of whether any such Study Responses are completed or required to be completed prior to termination of these Terms. You must have an individual User Account in order to submit Study Responses.

3.3 Participant Responsibility

With respect to each Study in which you elect to participate, you shall:

1. Accept or decline invitations to Studies that are communicated to you from time to time through your User Account or by email ("Study Invitation(s)");
2. If accepted, complete and submit the applicable Study Responses on a timely basis, in the formats and by the methods set forth in your User Account, the applicable Study Invitation, the applicable Supplemental Terms, or as otherwise specified by Tulip;
3. Follow the instructions applicable to each task, answer truthfully, completely, and in your own words, and apply your own independent judgment to each evaluation, rating, comparison, or other assessment you are asked to make;
4. Complete each task personally, without assistance from any other person and without the use of any bot, script, macro, browser extension, automation, or other tool designed to complete, accelerate, or simulate the completion of tasks; and
5. Refrain from using any generative artificial intelligence tool or technology to produce, draft, augment, translate, or revise any Study Response, in whole or in part, except where a task expressly instructs you to do so and only to the extent so instructed.

You acknowledge that the value and validity of the Study Responses depend entirely on their being the authentic, unaided product of an individual human being, and that any breach of clauses (3) through (5) above causes harm to Tulip that is not readily quantifiable.

3.4 Audio and Video Recording; Biometric Information

Certain Studies require you to record your voice, your image, or both, or to participate in a recorded live or screen-shared session. Where a Study involves such recording, we will tell you so in the applicable Study Invitation or Supplemental Terms before you accept, and you may decline that Study.

Consent to Recording. By accepting and participating in a Study that involves recording, you consent to the recording, capture, storage, and processing by Tulip and its service providers of your voice, image, likeness, and audiovisual performance, and to the use of the resulting recordings as Study Responses in accordance with Section 4 (Grant of Rights; Ownership of Study Responses). You confirm that you are the only person appearing or audible in any recording you submit unless the applicable task expressly provides otherwise, and that no other identifiable person appears or is audible in the recording without their prior written consent, which you will obtain and provide to us on request.

Biometric Identifiers and Biometric Information. You acknowledge that a voice recording or a recording of your face may constitute a "biometric identifier," "biometric information," or "biometric data" under Applicable Law, including the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act (740 ILCS 14/ et seq.), the Texas Capture or Use of Biometric Identifier Act (Tex. Bus. & Com. Code § 503.001), and the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended. BY ACCEPTING A STUDY THAT INVOLVES RECORDING, YOU PROVIDE YOUR INFORMED WRITTEN CONSENT AND RELEASE, AS THAT TERM IS USED IN 740 ILCS 14/15(b), TO TULIP'S COLLECTION, CAPTURE, STORAGE, USE, AND DISCLOSURE OF YOUR BIOMETRIC IDENTIFIERS AND BIOMETRIC INFORMATION FOR THE PURPOSES DESCRIBED IN THESE TERMS AND IN OUR PRIVACY POLICY, INCLUDING DISCLOSURE TO OUR SERVICE PROVIDERS, RESEARCH PARTNERS, AND CUSTOMERS, AND INCLUDING USE TO DEVELOP, TRAIN, FINE-TUNE, EVALUATE, AND BENCHMARK ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AND MACHINE LEARNING MODELS AND SYSTEMS. We will not sell, lease, or trade your biometric identifiers or biometric information, and will not otherwise profit from them, except as expressly permitted by Applicable Law and described in our Privacy Policy.

Retention and Destruction. We will retain your biometric identifiers and biometric information for the period stated in our Privacy Policy, and will permanently destroy them at the earlier of (a) the date on which the initial purpose for collecting them has been satisfied, or (b) three (3) years after your last interaction with Tulip, unless a longer retention period is required by law, warrant, or subpoena. Our written retention schedule and destruction guidelines are published in our Privacy Policy. This paragraph does not require the destruction of any recording, derivative work, dataset, model, or output that no longer contains a biometric identifier or biometric information, including any de-identified, transcribed, aggregated, or transformed version of a recording.

Withdrawal of Consent. You may withdraw your consent to the collection of biometric identifiers and biometric information at any time by writing to us at the address in Section 19.11 (Contact). Withdrawal operates prospectively only and does not affect the lawfulness of any collection, use, or disclosure carried out before withdrawal, nor Tulip's ownership of, or rights in, any Study Response already submitted.

3.5 Participant Representations, Warranties, and Covenants

You represent, warrant, and covenant that:

1. You have sufficient right, power, and authority to enter into and to perform your obligations under these Terms, including providing Study Responses, and to grant and assign the rights described in these Terms.
2. You have not made, nor will you make, any agreement or commitment with any third party that would prevent or materially interfere in any way with your provision of the Study Responses or the exercise of the rights granted and assigned to us (other than as specifically set out in these Terms), including, without limitation, any obligation of confidentiality, non-disclosure, non-competition, or exclusivity owed to any employer or other person.
3. You satisfy all eligibility and screening criteria applicable to each Study in which you participate, and all information you have provided about your identity, age, location, language proficiency, demographic characteristics, professional background, or other screening attributes is truthful and accurate.
4. You will provide the Study Responses in compliance with all Applicable Laws and in a manner that does not infringe or violate any third party's personal or property rights, including Intellectual Property Rights and privacy rights.
5. All Study Responses are your own work, original, and were composed by you personally, and, unless the applicable task expressly instructs otherwise, will not contain any third party's content and will not be generated, in whole or in part, with the use of any generative or other artificial intelligence tools or technology.
6. Your Study Responses do not contain, and you will not submit, any personal information relating to any other identifiable natural person, any information you are obligated to keep confidential, or any information the disclosure of which would violate any right of any person.
7. To the best of your knowledge, all Study Responses are truthful, accurate, and reflect your own genuine assessment, and you have not submitted any response for the purpose of manipulating, gaming, or distorting the results of any Study.
8. You are not located in, and are not a national or resident of, any country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties, including the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce's Denied Persons List or Entity List.

Nothing in these Terms shall be construed as conferring any rights by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, under any Intellectual Property Right or other proprietary right, other than the rights expressly granted in these Terms. Nothing herein shall constitute any obligation on us, our agents, assignees, licensees, and others working for us or on our behalf to make any use of any of the rights set forth herein.

5. Interactions with Others; Acceptable Use

5.1 Interactions with Other Users and Models

User Responsibility. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other Users and any other parties with whom you interact through the Service, including in the course of completing any Study; provided, however, that Tulip reserves the right, but has no obligation, to intercede in any disputes between you and any other Users. You agree that Tulip will not be responsible for any liability incurred as the result of your interactions with other Users.

Assumption of Risk. Tulip does not approve or endorse, or make any representations or warranties with respect to, the actions of Users on the Service. You interact with other Users at your own risk.

6. Compensation

6.1 Payment Terms

You understand that Tulip has the right to and may license, sell, or otherwise disclose your Study Responses to other Users and to third parties. Where a Study offers compensation, the amount and the conditions applicable to it will be stated in that Study's Supplemental Terms before you begin, and we, or our designated agent, will pay you the compensation so designated ("Compensation"). Registration for the Service does not, on its own, entitle you to any Compensation. Compensation is payable only for Study Responses completed and submitted in accordance with the applicable instructions and these Terms. Unless otherwise agreed by you and Tulip in writing, we will remit Compensation due to you hereunder no later than thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar month in which the applicable Compensation is earned. Payment will be in the form you select when you register for the Service, or as subsequently updated as permitted by the Service. We reserve the right to withhold payment under these Terms due to any breach of these Terms by you, pending our reasonable investigation of such breach. We also reserve the right to withhold payment or to charge back to your User Account any amounts subject to dispute pending successful resolution of the dispute. We may condition the issuance of any Compensation on your completion of identity, age, residency, eligibility, or tax verification to our reasonable satisfaction, including through a third-party verification provider, and may withhold payment until such verification is complete. To ensure proper payment, you are solely responsible for providing and maintaining accurate contact and payment information associated with your User Account, which includes, without limitation, applicable tax information. If we believe that we are obligated to obtain tax information and you do not provide this information to us after we have requested it, we may withhold your payments until you provide this information or otherwise satisfy us that you are not a person or entity from whom or from which we are required to obtain tax information. Any third-party fees related to returned or cancelled payments due to a contact or payment information error or omission may be deducted from the newly-issued payment. You will pay all applicable taxes in connection with your access to and/or use of the Service.

6.2 Quality Review and Rejection

We may review any Study Response for quality, completeness, authenticity, and compliance with the applicable instructions, including through the use of attention checks, duplicate detection, timing analysis, and automated and manual review. We may, in our sole discretion, reject and withhold Compensation for any Study Response that appears rushed, duplicated, automated, generated in whole or in part by an artificial intelligence tool, inconsistent with the applicable instructions, submitted in breach of these Terms, or otherwise unusable. Where we reject a submission on quality grounds, we will tell you, and you may ask us to reconsider by writing to the address in Section 19.11 (Contact).

Without limiting the foregoing, if we determine at any time that you have breached Section 3.3(3), 3.3(4), or 3.3(5) (concerning independent judgment, automation, and generative artificial intelligence), Section 2.4 (One Account Per Person), or Section 3.5(3) or 3.5(7) (concerning eligibility and truthfulness), we may, in addition to any other remedy available to us: (a) reject and withhold Compensation for all Study Responses associated with the affected User Account or Accounts, including Study Responses previously accepted; (b) recover from you, as a debt due and payable on demand, all Compensation previously paid in respect of such Study Responses; and (c) offset any such amounts against Compensation otherwise payable to you. You agree that the foregoing is a reasonable estimate of the harm caused by such a breach and not a penalty.

6.3 Correction and Disclosure of Compromised Data

If we determine that any Study Response was submitted in breach of these Terms, including any Study Response that was automated, generated in whole or in part by an artificial intelligence tool, duplicated, or submitted under false eligibility representations, we may, without notice to you and without liability: (a) remove, quarantine, correct, annotate, or permanently exclude that Study Response from any dataset, benchmark, model, or analysis; (b) notify any research partner, customer, or third party to whom that Study Response was disclosed, and identify the affected submissions; and (c) issue any public correction, retraction, or erratum we consider appropriate in respect of any published finding affected by that Study Response. You waive any claim arising from our exercise of the rights in this Section.

6.4 Disputes

If you dispute any payment obligation we allegedly have hereunder, you must notify us in writing within thirty (30) days of such payment or from when you purport such payment would have been due, whichever is earlier. Failure to so notify us will result in the waiver by you of any claim relating to such disputed payment obligation. Compensation will be calculated solely based on records maintained by us; no other measurements or statistics of any kind will be accepted by us or have any effect under these Terms, and you will have no audit rights hereunder. We may withhold any taxes or other amounts from payments due to you as required by Applicable Law.

6.5 Limitation of Remedies

You recognize and confirm that in the event of any failure or omission by Tulip constituting a breach of any of the obligations under these Terms, whether or not material, the damage, if any, caused to you is not irreparable or sufficient to entitle you to injunctive or other equitable relief. Consequently, your rights and remedies for a breach of these Terms shall be limited to the right, if any, to obtain damages at law and you shall not have any right to terminate or rescind these Terms or any of the rights granted to Tulip hereunder or to enjoin or restrain any activities in connection with the exploitation of the rights granted in Section 4 (Grant of Rights; Ownership of Study Responses) above.

6.6 Third-Party Payment Processor

To the extent a third-party payment processor ("Payment Processor") processes payments made to you, you will be subject to terms and conditions governing the use of such Payment Processor's service. Our current Payment Processors are Stripe, Inc. and Wise US Inc. Please review such terms and conditions (which are available at https://stripe.com/legal/ssa and https://wise.com/en/legal/terms-and-conditions) as well as our Payment Processors' privacy notices (which are available at https://stripe.com/privacy and https://wise.com/gb/legal/privacy-notice-personal-en). You acknowledge and understand that a Payment Processor may collect and retain third-party fees whenever you receive Compensation and such amounts will be deducted from your Compensation before your Compensation is distributed to you. For all payments, the Payment Processor will collect your preferred payment method details and remit payment to your chosen payment method in connection with each transaction.

We may also, at our sole discretion, limit access to the Service, void and withhold any Compensation, and/or terminate the User Accounts of any Users who infringe any Intellectual Property Rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.

9. Acknowledgement of Study Content; Assumption of Risk

You acknowledge and agree that the purpose of the Service is to elicit candid human evaluation of the behavior of artificial intelligence models, and that in the course of a Study you may be exposed to model outputs that are inaccurate, misleading, biased, offensive, upsetting, or otherwise objectionable, including outputs that a model would not ordinarily produce in a consumer setting. Where a Study is expected to involve such material, we will indicate this in the applicable Study Invitation or Supplemental Terms before you accept.

AI OUTPUTS SHOWN IN TASKS ARE GENERATED BY AUTOMATED SYSTEMS, MAY BE INACCURATE OR FABRICATED, AND MUST NOT BE RELIED UPON AS MEDICAL, LEGAL, FINANCIAL, PSYCHOLOGICAL, OR OTHER PROFESSIONAL ADVICE. You participate in each Study with knowledge of the foregoing and assume the risk of exposure to such material. If you encounter model output that you believe presents a risk of harm, please report it to us at the address in Section 19.11 (Contact).

10. Privacy; Data Security

10.1 Privacy

We care about your privacy. By using the Service, you acknowledge that we may collect, use, and disclose your personal information and aggregated and/or anonymized data as set forth in our Privacy Policy, and that your personal information may be transferred to, and/or processed in, the United States. Nothing in these Terms limits any right you have under Applicable Law with respect to your personal information, including any right to access, correct, delete, or port that information, or to withdraw consent, as described in our Privacy Policy.

10.2 Security

We care about the integrity and security of your personal information. However, we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never be able to defeat our security measures or to use your data for improper purposes. You acknowledge that you provide your data at your own risk.

11. Text Messaging and Calls

11.1 General

You may provide us with your telephone number as part of creating your User Account or otherwise. By providing a telephone number, you consent to receiving autodialed or prerecorded calls and/or text messages from us, or on our behalf, at such telephone number. We may place such calls or send such texts to (a) help keep your User Account secure through the use of multi-factor authentication ("MFA"); (b) help you access your User Account if you are experiencing difficulties; and/or (c) as otherwise necessary to service your account or enforce these Terms, our policies, Applicable Law, or any other agreement we may have with you. Part of the MFA identity-verification process may involve Tulip sending text messages containing security codes to the telephone number you provided, and you agree to receive such texts from or on behalf of Tulip.

11.2 Consent to Transactional Communications

You expressly consent and agree to Tulip contacting you using written, electronic, and/or verbal means, including manual dialing, emails, prerecorded/artificial voice messages, and/or using an automatic telephone dialing system to call or text your mobile/cellular telephone number, as necessary to complete transactions requested by you and to service your account, and as permitted by Applicable Law, in each case even if the phone number is registered on any United States federal and/or state Do-Not-Call/Do-Not-email registry/ies. Message and data rates apply. For purposes of clarity, the text messages described in this paragraph are transactional text messages, not promotional text messages.

11.3 Unsubscribing From Transactional Text Messages

You may opt out from transactional text messages at any time. To unsubscribe from transactional text messages, text "STOP," "QUIT," "END," "CANCEL," or "UNSUBSCRIBE" to the conversation thread from the mobile device receiving the messages, or reply "STOP," "QUIT," "END," "CANCEL," or "UNSUBSCRIBE" to any text message you receive from Tulip. You consent that following such a request to unsubscribe, you may receive one (1) final text message from or on behalf of Tulip confirming your request. For help, text "HELP" as a reply to a text message you receive from us or contact us at the contact information in Section 19.11 (Contact) below.

12. Your Use of Third-Party Services

THE SERVICE MAY CONTAIN LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY SITES, MATERIALS, AND/OR SERVICES (COLLECTIVELY, "THIRD-PARTY SERVICES") THAT ARE NOT OWNED OR CONTROLLED BY US, AND CERTAIN FUNCTIONALITIES OF THE SERVICE MAY REQUIRE YOUR USE OF THIRD-PARTY SERVICES, INCLUDING THIRD-PARTY SIGN-IN, HOSTING, EMAIL, PAYMENT, STUDY TOOLING, AND ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MODEL PROVIDERS. IF YOU USE A THIRD-PARTY SERVICE IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE, YOU ARE SUBJECT TO AND AGREE TO, AND MUST COMPLY WITH, THE THIRD PARTY'S TERMS AND CONDITIONS MADE AVAILABLE VIA, OR AGREED IN CONNECTION WITH, ITS SERVICES. WE DO NOT ENDORSE OR ASSUME ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICES. IF YOU ACCESS A THIRD-PARTY SERVICE FROM THE SERVICE OR SHARE YOUR STUDY RESPONSES ON OR THROUGH ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE, YOU DO SO AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND YOU UNDERSTAND THAT THESE TERMS AND OUR PRIVACY POLICY DO NOT APPLY TO YOUR USE OF ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE. YOU EXPRESSLY RELIEVE US FROM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY ARISING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND/OR USE OF ANY THIRD-PARTY SERVICE.

Flow-Down Obligations. Certain Studies are conducted on behalf of, or using models, systems, or materials supplied by, our research partners and their model providers ("Upstream Providers"). You agree that, in addition to these Terms, you will comply with any usage policies, acceptable use restrictions, confidentiality obligations, safety requirements, publication restrictions, or other terms that an Upstream Provider imposes in respect of a Study, a model, or any material made available to you, in each case as we communicate them to you through the Service, the applicable Study Invitation, or the applicable Supplemental Terms ("Flow-Down Terms"). Flow-Down Terms are incorporated by reference into these Terms with respect to the applicable Study, and your breach of any Flow-Down Term is a breach of these Terms. You acknowledge that an Upstream Provider may be an intended third-party beneficiary of any Flow-Down Terms applicable to it, and may enforce those terms directly against you. Where a Flow-Down Term conflicts with these Terms, the more restrictive obligation controls with respect to the applicable Study.

13. Release

You hereby release us from all claims, damages (whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise), obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debts, and expenses, in each case of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of a dispute between you and a third party (including any other User) in connection with the Service. In addition, you waive any Applicable Law that says, in substance: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE RELEASED PARTY."

14. Indemnity

You will defend, indemnify, and hold us and our subsidiaries and affiliates, and our and their respective agents, suppliers, licensors, employees, contractors, officers, directors, members, and managers (collectively, including Tulip, the "Tulip Parties") harmless from and against any and all claims, damages (whether direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or otherwise), obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, debts, and expenses (including, but not limited to, legal fees) arising from: (a) your access to and/or use of the Service; (b) your violation of any term of these Terms, including, without limitation, your breach of any of your representations and warranties set forth in these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including, without limitation, any privacy right or Intellectual Property Right; (d) your violation of any Applicable Law; (e) any Study Response or any other content that is submitted via your User Account, including, without limitation, any misleading, false, or inaccurate information; (f) your willful misconduct; or (g) any third party's access to and/or use of the Service with your username(s), password(s), or other authentication credential(s).

15. No Warranty; Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SERVICE, THE INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, AND ANY OTHER INFORMATION AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE PROVIDED WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND/OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.

ANY CONTENT DOWNLOADED OR OTHERWISE OBTAINED THROUGH THE USE OF THE SERVICE IS SO OBTAINED AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND YOU WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM(S) OR MOBILE DEVICE(S) AND/OR FOR LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM SAME OR FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND/OR USE OF THE SERVICE. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER STATUTORY RIGHTS, BUT THE DURATION OF STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, WILL BE LIMITED TO THE SHORTEST PERIOD PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, TULIP MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WHATSOEVER REGARDING THE ACCURACY, SAFETY, APPROPRIATENESS, OR RELIABILITY OF ANY OUTPUT GENERATED BY ANY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MODEL MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL LAW AND SOME STATES, PROVINCES, AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF AND/OR LIMITATIONS ON CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS AND/OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. THESE TERMS GIVE YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS, AND YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS, WHICH VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION. THE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, AND LIMITATIONS UNDER THESE TERMS WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

16. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL ANY TULIP PARTY BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, OR DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SERVICE OR ANY PORTION THEREOF. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL WE BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, LOSS, OR INJURY RESULTING FROM HACKING, TAMPERING, OR OTHER UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICE OR YOUR USER ACCOUNT OR THE INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE TULIP PARTIES ASSUME NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY (A) ERRORS, MISTAKES, OR INACCURACIES OF CONTENT, INCLUDING ANY OUTPUT OF ANY ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE MODEL; (B) PERSONAL INJURY, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICE OR YOUR EXPOSURE TO ANY MATERIAL PRESENTED IN A STUDY; (C) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVERS RUNNING THE SERVICE AND/OR ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION STORED THEREIN; (D) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SERVICE; (E) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE THAT MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICE BY ANY THIRD PARTY; (F) ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT, OR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT POSTED, EMAILED, TRANSMITTED, OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE; AND/OR (G) YOUR DATA, ANY STUDY RESPONSES, OR THE DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

THE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY UNDER THESE TERMS WILL NOT APPLY TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

17. Suspension and Termination

You may stop using the Service at any time, de-activate your User Account, and request deletion of your participant record as described in our Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms, if we suspect fraud, automation, multiple-account activity, or other abuse, if required by Applicable Law, or if we discontinue the Service. Upon termination, all licenses granted to you under Section 3.1 (Access to the Service) immediately cease. Termination does not affect Tulip's ownership of, or rights in, any Study Response or Usage Data received prior to termination, and does not entitle you to the return, deletion, or withdrawal of any Study Response from any dataset, model, or publication in which it has already been incorporated, except to the extent required by Applicable Law.

18. Arbitration Agreement

Please read this Section (the "Arbitration Agreement") carefully. It is part of your contract with Tulip and affects your rights. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

18.1 Applicability of Arbitration Agreement

Subject to the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, you and Tulip agree that any disputes, claims, or disagreements arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Service, any communications you receive, any Compensation, or these Terms and prior versions of these Terms, including claims and disputes that arose between us before the effective date of these Terms (each, a "Dispute") will be resolved by final, binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that: (i) you and Tulip may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if such claims qualify and remain in small claims court; and (ii) you or Tulip may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of Intellectual Property Rights or breach of Section 8.4 (Confidential Information). For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, "Dispute" will also include disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the existence of these or any prior versions of these Terms as well as claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms.

18.2 Informal Dispute Resolution

There might be instances when a Dispute arises between you and Tulip. If that occurs, Tulip is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. You and Tulip agree that good faith informal efforts to resolve Disputes can result in a prompt, low-cost, and mutually beneficial outcome ("Informal Dispute Resolution"). You and Tulip therefore agree that before either party commences arbitration against the other (or initiates an action in small claims court if a party so elects), the parties will personally meet and confer telephonically or via videoconference, in a good-faith effort to resolve informally any Dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement ("Informal Dispute Resolution Conference"). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you will also participate in the conference.

The party initiating a Dispute must give notice to the other party in writing of its intent to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference ("Notice"), which shall occur within forty-five (45) days after the other party receives such Notice, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. Notice to Tulip that you intend to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference should be sent by e-mail or regular mail to the addresses set forth in Section 19.11 (Contact) below. The Notice must include: (1) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address associated with your User Account (if you have one); (2) the name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address of your counsel, if any; and (3) a description of your Dispute.

The Informal Dispute Resolution Conference shall be individualized such that a separate conference must be held each time either party initiates a Dispute, even if the same law firm or group of law firms represents multiple Users in similar cases, unless all parties agree; multiple individuals initiating a Dispute cannot participate in the same Informal Dispute Resolution Conference unless all parties agree. In the time between a party receiving the Notice and the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference, nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall prohibit the parties from engaging in informal communications to resolve the initiating party's Dispute. Engaging in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference is a condition precedent and requirement that must be fulfilled before commencing arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference process required by this section.

18.3 Waiver of Jury Trial

YOU AND TULIP HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Tulip are instead electing that all Disputes will be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 18.1 (Applicability of Arbitration Agreement). There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.

18.4 Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief

YOU AND TULIP AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 18.9 (BATCH ARBITRATION), EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND DISPUTES OF MORE THAN ONE USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER. Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the party's individual claim. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to, nor shall it, affect the terms and conditions under Section 18.9 (Batch Arbitration). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides by means of a final decision, not subject to any further appeal or recourse, that the limitations of this section are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Tulip agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in the state or federal courts located in the State of California. All other Disputes will be arbitrated or litigated in small claims court. This section does not prevent you or Tulip from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.

18.5 Rules and Forum

These Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce; and notwithstanding any other provision herein with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement and any arbitration proceedings. If the Informal Dispute Resolution process described above does not resolve satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after receipt of your Notice, either party shall have the right to finally resolve the Dispute through binding arbitration. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this section of this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are currently available at https://www.adr.org/rules-forms-and-fees/consumer/.

A party who wishes to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a request for arbitration (the "Request"). The Request must include: (1) the name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address of the party seeking arbitration and the User Account username (if applicable) as well as the e-mail address associated with any applicable User Account; (2) a statement of the legal claims being asserted and the factual bases of those claims; (3) a description of the remedy sought and an accurate, good-faith calculation of the amount in controversy in United States dollars; (4) a statement certifying completion of the Informal Dispute Resolution process as described above; and (5) evidence that the requesting party has paid any necessary filing fees in connection with such arbitration.

If the party requesting arbitration is represented by counsel, the Request shall also include counsel's name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address. Such counsel must also sign the Request. By signing the Request, counsel certifies to the best of counsel's knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, that: (1) the Request is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution; (2) the claims, defenses, and other legal contentions are warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law; and (3) the factual and damages contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, will likely have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery.

Unless you and Tulip otherwise agree, or the Batch Arbitration process discussed in Section 18.9 (Batch Arbitration) is triggered, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator may direct a limited and reasonable exchange of information between the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. Your responsibility to pay any AAA fees and costs will be solely set forth in the applicable AAA Rules.

You and Tulip agree that all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept confidential and shall not be shared with anyone except the parties' attorneys, accountants, or business advisors, and shall be subject to the condition that they agree to keep all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings confidential.

18.6 Arbitrator

The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from the AAA's roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within thirty-five (35) days of delivery of the Request, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules, provided that if the Batch Arbitration process under Section 18.9 (Batch Arbitration) is triggered, the AAA will appoint the arbitrator for each batch.

18.7 Authority of Arbitrator

The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including, without limitation, disputes arising out of or related to the interpretation or application of the Arbitration Agreement, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or any portion of the Arbitration Agreement, except for the following: (1) all Disputes arising out of or relating to Section 18.4 (Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief), including any claim that all or part of Section 18.4 is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that such Section 18.4 has been breached, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (2) except as expressly contemplated in Section 18.9 (Batch Arbitration), all Disputes about the payment of arbitration fees shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (3) all Disputes about whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; and (4) all Disputes about which version of the Arbitration Agreement applies shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties, except as expressly provided in Section 18.9 (Batch Arbitration). The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any Dispute. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

18.8 Attorneys' Fees and Costs

The parties shall bear their own attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Request was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). If you or Tulip need to invoke the authority of a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, then the party that obtains an order compelling arbitration in such action shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in securing an order compelling arbitration. The prevailing party in any court action relating to whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration, including the Informal Dispute Resolution process, is entitled to recover their reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys' fees and costs.

18.9 Batch Arbitration

To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Tulip agree that in the event that there are one hundred (100) or more individual Requests of a substantially similar nature filed against Tulip by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations, within a thirty (30) day period (or as soon as possible thereafter), the AAA shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Requests per batch (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 100 Requests left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Requests); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award ("Batch Arbitration").

All parties agree that Requests are of a "substantially similar nature" if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise the AAA, and the AAA shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process ("Administrative Arbitrator"). In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree that the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator's fees shall be paid by Tulip.

You and Tulip agree to cooperate in good faith with the AAA to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of Requests, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (1) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (2) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings.

This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision.

18.10 30-Day Right to Opt Out

You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out by email or regular mail to the addresses set forth in Section 19.11 (Contact) below, within thirty (30) days after becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, the email address associated with your User Account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter into in the future, with us.

18.11 Invalidity, Expiration

Except as provided in Section 18.4 (Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief), if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. You further agree that any Dispute that you have with Tulip as detailed in this Arbitration Agreement must be initiated via arbitration within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy, or it will be forever time barred. Likewise, you agree that all applicable statutes of limitation will apply to such arbitration in the same manner as those statutes of limitation would apply in the applicable court of competent jurisdiction.

18.12 Modification

Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, we agree that if Tulip makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, we will notify you. Unless you reject the change within thirty (30) days of such change becoming effective by writing to Tulip via email or regular mail to the addresses set forth in Section 19.11 (Contact) below, your continued use of the Service following the posting of changes to this Arbitration Agreement constitutes your acceptance of any such changes. Changes to this Arbitration Agreement do not provide you with a new opportunity to opt out of the Arbitration Agreement if you have previously agreed to a version of these Terms and did not validly opt out of arbitration. If you reject any change or update to this Arbitration Agreement, and you were bound by an existing agreement to arbitrate Disputes arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Service, the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms) remain in full force and effect. Tulip will continue to honor any valid opt outs of the Arbitration Agreement that you made to a prior version of these Terms.

19. General Provisions

19.1 Governing Law

You agree that: (a) the Service will be deemed solely based in the State of California; and (b) the Service will be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over us, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than California. These Terms will be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law governing these Terms, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) (as it may be amended, "FAA") governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement above and preempts all state laws (and laws of other jurisdictions) to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law. If the FAA is found to not apply to any issue that arises from or relates to the Arbitration Agreement, then that issue will be resolved under and governed by the law of the U.S. state where you live (if applicable) or the jurisdiction mutually agreed upon in writing by you and us. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in California for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, Confidential Information, or Intellectual Property Rights, as set forth in the Arbitration Agreement above, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm. You agree that California is the proper and exclusive forum for any appeals of an arbitration award, or for trial court proceedings in the event that the Arbitration Agreement above is found to be unenforceable. These Terms were drafted in the English language and this English language version of the Terms is the original, governing instrument of the understanding between you and us. In the event of any conflict between the English version of these Terms and any translation, the English version will prevail.

19.2 Export Controls

You may not use, export, import, or transfer the Service except as authorized by U.S. law, the laws of the jurisdiction in which you accessed any Tulip property, and any other Applicable Law. In particular, but without limitation, the Service may not be exported or re-exported (a) into any U.S. embargoed countries, or (b) to anyone on the U.S. Treasury Department's list of Specially Designated Nationals or the U.S. Department of Commerce's Denied Persons List or Entity List. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that (y) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country and (z) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You also will not use the Service for any purpose prohibited by U.S. law, including the development, design, manufacture, or production of missiles, nuclear, chemical, or biological weapons.

19.3 Assignment

These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without our prior express written consent, but may be assigned by us without restriction, including in connection with any merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof will be null and void.

19.4 Notification Procedures and Changes to these Terms

We may provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by Applicable Law or are for marketing or other business-related purposes, to you via email notice or written or hard copy notice, or through posting of such notice on the Service, as we determine, in our sole discretion. We reserve the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to Users, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification, as required under Applicable Law or as described in these Terms. We are not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notifications we send to the email address you provide us. We may, in our sole discretion, modify or update these Terms from time to time, and so you should review this page periodically. When we change these Terms in a material manner, we will update the "last updated" date at the top of this page and notify you that material changes have been made to these Terms. These Terms apply to and govern your access to and use of the Service effective as of the start of your access to the Service, even if such access began before publication of these Terms. Your continued use of the Service after any change to these Terms constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. If you do not agree to any part of these Terms or to any future Terms, do not access or use (or continue to access or use) the Service.

19.5 Entire Agreement; Severability

These Terms, together with any Supplemental Terms, amendments, and any additional agreements you may enter into with us in connection with the Service, will constitute the entire agreement between you and us concerning the Service. Any statements or comments made between you and any of our employees or representatives are expressly excluded from these Terms and will not apply to you or us, or to your access to or use of the Service. Except as otherwise stated in the Arbitration Agreement, if any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms, which will remain in full force and effect.

19.6 Third-Party Beneficiaries

You acknowledge that the Tulip Parties are third-party beneficiaries of Sections 14 (Indemnity), 15 (No Warranty; Disclaimers), and 16 (Limitation of Liability), and that they will have the right to enforce those provisions. You further acknowledge that each Upstream Provider is an intended third-party beneficiary of Section 8.4 (Confidential Information) and of the Flow-Down Terms applicable to it under Section 12 (Your Use of Third-Party Services), and will have the right to enforce those provisions directly against you.

19.7 Force Majeure

Tulip shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargos, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, pandemics, accidents, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor, or materials.

19.9 No Waiver

No waiver of any term of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or of any other term, and our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
