Instead, you and Renown Talent agree to arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or a jury in court).
b. No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions
You and Renown Talent agree that any Dispute arising out of or related to these Terms of Service or use or access of our Website is personal to you and Renown Talent and that such Dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. You and Renown Talent agree that there will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, you and Renown Talent agree that a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
c. Federal Arbitration Act
You and Renown Talent agree that these Terms of Service affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section shall be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
d. Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution
You and Renown Talent agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any arbitral or small claims Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to Renown Talent shall be sent by certified mail or courier to Renown Talent, Attn: [CONTACT PERSON], [PHYSICAL ADDRESS]. Your notice must include (a) your name, postal address, telephone number, the email address you use or used for your Renown Talent account and, if different, an email address at which you can be contacted, (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute, and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking.

If you and Renown Talent cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or Renown Talent may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section, commence an arbitration proceeding.
e. Process
EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES IN WHICH EITHER PARTY SEEKS TO BRING AN INDIVIDUAL ACTION IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR SEEKS INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF FOR THE ALLEGED UNLAWFUL USE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, COPYRIGHTS, TRADEMARKS, TRADE NAMES, LOGOS, TRADE SECRETS OR PATENTS, YOU AND RENOWN TALENT AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE MUST BE COMMENCED OR FILED BY YOU OR RENOWN TALENT WITHIN (1) YEAR OF THE DATE THE DISPUTE AROSE, OTHERWISE THE UNDERLYING CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED (WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AND RENOWN TALENT WILL NO LONGER HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSERT SUCH CLAIM REGARDING THE DISPUTE). You and Renown Talent agree that (a) any arbitration will occur in Hillsborough County, Florida, (b) arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section, and (c) that the state or federal courts of the State of Florida, have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. You may also litigate a Dispute in the small claims court located in the county of your billing address if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.
f. Authority of Arbitrator
As limited by the FAA, these Terms of Service and the applicable AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have (a) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute, including the determination of whether a Dispute is arbitral, and (b) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms of Service. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding, or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or the applicable AAA Rules, discovery in the arbitration shall be limited to one set of interrogatories, one set of requests for admissions, and one set of requests for production of documents.
The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law. We will not seek and hereby waive all rights we may have under applicable law to recover, attorneys’ fees and expenses if we prevail in arbitration.
g. Rules of AAA
The AAA Rules are available at https://www.adr.org/Rules or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. By agreeing to be bound by these Terms of Service, you either (a) acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of AAA, or (b) waive your opportunity to read the rules of AAA and any claim that the rules of AAA are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
h. Severability
If any term, clause or provision of this Section is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent required by law, and all other terms, clauses and provisions of this Section will remain valid and enforceable. Further, the waivers set forth herein are severable from the other provisions of this Agreement and will remain valid and enforceable, except as prohibited by applicable law.
i. Opt-Out Right
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF BINDING ARBITRATION WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE DATE YOU FIRST ACCEPTED THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION BY WRITING TO: RENOWN TALENT, RE: OPT-OUT, 1930 Alton Dr, Clearwater FL 33763. IN ORDER TO BE EFFECTIVE, THE OPT OUT NOTICE MUST INCLUDE YOUR FULL NAME AND CLEARLY INDICATE YOUR INTENT TO OPT OUT OF BINDING ARBITRATION. BY OPTING OUT OF BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU ARE AGREEING TO RESOLVE DISPUTES IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 20.
21. MISCELLANEOUS
This Agreement along with our Privacy Policy constitutes the entire agreement between you and Renown Talent and supersedes any prior agreements between you and Renown Talent with respect to the subject matter herein. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, we both nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to our intentions as reflected in this provision, and the other provisions of this Agreement to remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of our Website or this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

All the sections intended to survive the termination of this Agreement shall survive. The section titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except as explicitly stated otherwise, any notices to Renown Talent shall be given by certified mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested to Renown Talent at 1930 Alton Dr, Clearwater FL 33763.

CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY
Except as otherwise provided in this Privacy Notice, we will keep your Personal Information private and will not share it with third parties, unless we believe in good faith that the disclosure of your Personal Information or any other information we collect about you is necessary to: (1) comply with a court order or other legal process, such as a court order or a subpoena; (2) protect the rights, property, or safety of Renown Talent or another party; (3) enforce our Terms of Use or this Privacy Notice; or (4) respond to claims that any posting or other content violates the rights of third-parties.

PUBLIC INFORMATION
Any information that you may reveal in a review posting or other online discussion or forum is intentionally open to the public and is not in any way private. You should think carefully before disclosing any personally identifiable information in any public forum. What you have written may be seen and/or collected by third parties and may be used by others in ways we are unable to control or predict.
CHILDREN’S PRIVACY PROTECTION
Children under the age of 13 are prohibited from using the Services. The Site is not intentionally targeted to, or intended for, children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect data relating to children under the age of 13. If we learn that we have received any information from an individual under the age of 13, we will use that information only to respond directly to that child (or a parent or legal guardian) to inform him or her that he or she cannot use the Services and subsequently we will delete that information from our own servers.
PROTECTING YOUR INFORMATION
The security of your Personal Information is important to us. We follow generally accepted industry standard to protect the Personal Information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. Although we make good faith efforts to store Personal Information in a secure operating environment that is not open to the public, you should understand that there is no such thing as complete security, and we do not guarantee that there will be no unintended disclosures of your Personal Information. If we become aware that your Personal Information has been disclosed in a manner not in accordance with this Privacy Notice, we will use reasonable efforts to notify you of the nature and extent of the disclosure (to the extent we know that information) as soon reasonably possible and in accordance with applicable law. Your Personal Information is processed at our operating offices and such other locates as Renown Talent processes Personal Information.
CONTROLLING YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
If you would like to exercise your right to modify or remove your Personal Information from our database or request a copy of your Personal Information (but only to the extent these rights are provided by law), you can send us an e-mail at info@renowntalent.com. For your protection, we may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request. We will respond as soon as reasonably practical and within the time frame specified by applicable law. We reserve the right to deny your request based on applicable law and will inform you if we do so.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES
Our Site contains links to third party websites to which Renown Talent has no affiliation. Renown Talent does not share your Personal Information with those websites, unless you have provided your consent for Renown Talent to do so. Some websites may have the look and feel of our Site. Please be aware that you may be on a different website and that this Privacy Notice only covers our Site. A link to a non- Renown Talent website does not constitute or imply endorsement by Renown Talent. Additionally, we cannot guarantee the quality or accuracy of the information presented on the non- Renown Talent websites. Should you decide to visit one of these third-party websites, we suggest that you read its privacy policy.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY NOTICE
We may change and update this Privacy Notice from time to time. Any changes to our Privacy Notice will be posted on this page.
SUPPLEMENTAL NOTICE FOR CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS
This section supplements our Privacy Notice with additional information for California residents only. As described in further detail above, we collect data directly from you and automatically collect data about you when you access the Site or when you use our other Services.
A. Right to Know About Personal Information Collected or “Sold”
In accordance with the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), California residents have the right to request that we disclose the following information about our collection and use of Personal Information over the twelve-month period prior to your request:
· The categories of Personal Information we collect about you.
· The categories of sources for the Personal Information we collect about you.
· Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling that Personal Information.
· The categories of third parties with whom we share that Personal Information.
· The specific pieces of Personal Information collected about you.
· If we disclosed your Personal Information for a business purpose, a list of the categories of Personal Information we have disclosed in the prior twelve months.
· If we sold your Personal Information for a business purpose, a list of the categories of Personal Information we have sold in the prior twelve months.
B. “Sale” of Personal Information
The CCPA broadly defines the term “sale” to mean:
“Selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means, a consumer’s personal information by the business to a third party for valuable consideration.
Within this meaning, we may have disclosed (as that term is defined by the CCPA) Personal Information in the categories below from consumers and users of our Services within the last twelve months where such disclosure may fall within the CCPA’s definition of a “sale.” When we disclose that we may have sold Personal Information, it means that we may have received some kind of benefit to our company in return for sharing Personal Information, it does not necessarily mean we received any money in exchange.
The categories below are those defined in the CCPA. This does not mean that all examples of that category of Personal Information were in fact “sold” but reflects our good faith belief to the best of our knowledge that some of that information may have been shared for value in return. We will update this disclosure from time to time as appropriate.
In response to a verified consumer request for categories of Personal Information “sold,” we will investigate and provide an individualized response to the consumer, and will not merely refer the consumer to our general practices outlined in this Privacy Policy unless our response would be the same for all consumers and this Privacy Policy discloses all the information that is otherwise required for the response to such a consumer request.
Categories of Information:
· Identifiers.
· Personal Information categories listed in the California Customer Records statute.
· Protected classification characteristics under California or federal law.
· Commercial information.
· Internet or other similar network activity.
· Geolocation data.
· Sensory data.
· Professional or employment-related information.
· Inferences drawn from other Personal Information.
The CCPA requires businesses to provide a web page where consumers can opt out of the ”sale” of their Personal Information. The link to our Do Not Sell web form is located here.
C. Right to Request Deletion of Personal Information
You also have a right to request that we delete any of your Personal Information, subject to certain exceptions, including if we need the Personal Information for a reason related to our business, such as:
· Providing goods or Services to you;
· Detecting and resolving issues related to security or functionality of the Services;
· Complying with legal obligations;
· Conducting research in the public interest;
· Exercising free speech or ensuring another’s exercise of free speech; or
· Using the information for internal purposes that a consumer might reasonably expect.
After we receive and confirm a verifiable consumer request, we will delete your Personal Information from our records in the time and manner required by the CCPA, subject to any limitations or exceptions under applicable law.
D. Exercising Your Rights
To exercise your rights described above, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us at: info@renowntalent.com. You may also write to us at: Renown Talent, 1930 Alton Dr, Clearwater, FL 33763.
You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period.
The verifiable consumer request must provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative. This means that in making a request you may be required to: provide your email and phone number, customer information, and/or other information needed to verify your identity depending on the sensitivity of the Personal Information that is the subject of the request.
We cannot respond to your request or provide you with Personal Information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the Personal Information relates to you. If we are unable to verify your identity, we reserve the right to deny the request. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use Personal Information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.
If you choose to use an authorized agent to submit a request to know or a request to delete your information, we may require that you: (1) provide the authorized agent written permission to do so; and (2) verify your own identity directly with us. We will not require these steps if we have received proof that you have provided the authorized agent with a power of attorney pursuant to California Probate Code sections 4000 to 4465. We may deny a request from an agent that does not submit proof that they have been authorized by you to act on your behalf. We may also deny a request from an agent that does not meet the requirements for authorized agents under the CCPA. Once we have verified your identity (and your authorized agent, as applicable), we will respond to your request as appropriate. To the extent permitted by applicable law, we may charge a reasonable fee to comply with your request. If we are unable to complete your request in whole or in part, we will let you know why.
E. Response Timing and Format
We use good faith efforts to respond to a verifiable consumer request within 45 days after its receipt. If we need more time (up to 90 days), we will inform you of the reason and the needed extension period in writing. We will deliver our written response by email. Any disclosures we provide will only cover the 12-month period preceding the verifiable consumer request’s receipt. If we cannot comply with any portion of a request, the response we provide will also explain why, if applicable. For data portability requests, we will select a commercially reasonable format to provide your Personal Information that is commonly useable and should allow you to transmit the information from one entity to another entity without hindrance, but we do not guarantee that all formats are useable in all media. We do not charge a fee to process or respond to your verifiable consumer request unless it is excessive, repetitive, or manifestly unfounded. If we determine that the request warrants a fee, we will tell you why we made that decision and provide you with a cost estimate before completing your request.
