TERMS OF SERVICE AGREEMENT


1. Welcome

Welcome to the ATLUSONLINE.COM website (the “Website”) operated by Index Digital Media, Inc. (“IDM”). The Website is a portal to games and other content offered by Atlus. By using the Website, you agree to be bound by this Terms of Service Agreement (this "TOS" or "Agreement").

In addition, if you decide to become an Atlus Online member ("Member") and take advantage of the content and services only available to Members (the "Service"), you must read this TOS and indicate your acceptance of these terms by registering for an Atlus Online account ("Account") and by clicking on the box labeled "I agree to Atlus Online's Terms of Service for the ATLUSONLINE.COM Website and the Service provided thereon." If you have any questions regarding the terms and conditions in this TOS, please contact customer service under the support section of the Website.

This Agreement sets out the legally binding terms of your use of the Website (whether or not you become a Member) and your membership in the Service, if any, and may be modified by IDM at any time without prior notice. You should therefore review this Agreement from time to time to familiarize yourself with any modifications. All such modifications will be effective upon posting on the Website, and any use by you of the Website or the Service (whether or not you are an Account Holder) after the posting of any such modification will constitute your agreement to that modification. The terms of our Privacy Policy and any notices regarding the Website or the Service sent to you or posted on the Website are incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement. Links to copies of IDM's policies and notices can be found on the Website or on www.atlus.com.

2. Eligibility

Accounts are available only to:
1) persons of legal age to form a bindingcontract that are not barred from receiving services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions, or
2) to the minor children over the age of 13 of the persons described in clause 1) above, in their discretion. If you are a minor over the age of 13, your parent or guardian must complete the registration process, in which case they will take full responsibility for all obligations under this Agreement. Under no circumstances will the Service offered through this Website be available to minors under the age of 13. By registering an account, you represent that you are a person of legal age to form a binding contract and are not a person barred from receiving services under the laws of the United States or other applicable jurisdictions and are either accepting this Agreement on your behalf of on behalf of your child. You may not transfer or share your Account with anyone, except that if you are a parent or guardian, you may permit one child over the age of 13 to use the Account instead of you (in which case you may not use that Account). If you do not meet the minimum age requirement for the game title or service you are trying to play/view, your account will not be allowed access. You are liable for all activities conducted through the Account, and parents or guardians are liable for the activities of their child. Corporations and other entities are not eligible to obtain Accounts.

3. Registration and Membership
To obtain an Account, you will be required to choose a user name which must comply with the naming conventions listed below.

IDM never asks you for your password by telephone, live-chat or email, and you should not disclose it this way if someone asks you to do so. Although we may offer a feature that allows you to "save" or "remember" your password on your hard drive, please note that by using this feature third parties may be able to access your computer and thus your Account. IDM is not responsible for any transactions reflected in your Account resulting from your sharing your password or granting any third party access to your account.

IDM MAY SUSPEND, TERMINATE, MODIFY, OR DELETE ACCOUNTS AT ANY TIME FOR ANY REASON OR FOR NO REASON, WITH OR WITHOUT NOTICE TO YOU.

Your privacy is very important to us. IDM has adopted a comprehensive privacy policy which can be accessed at https://secure.marvelous-usa.com/privacy.html. While we take every effort to protect your privacy, we cannot ensure that your private communications and other personally identifiable information will not be disclosed to third parties. For example, we may be forced to disclose information to the government or law enforcement authorities under certain circumstances, or third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications. Additionally, if we believe it necessary or appropriate to investigate possible problems or inquires we may disclose any information about you including personal information (such as your screen name, actual name, address information, etc.) to law enforcement or other government officials. In order to ensure that we provide that best service to all users, we may also monitor your Account, User Content and other related communications. In order to provide the best service to you, we may communicate with you via telephone, email and any similar technology for any purpose relating to the Website, Service or your Account and any services or software which may in the future be provided by us or on our behalf.

20. Resolution of Disputes
In order to expedite and control the cost of disputes, you and IDM agree that any legal or equitable claim relating to this Agreement (referred to as "Claim") will be resolved as follows:

A. Informal Resolution.
You and IDM agree that we will first try to resolve any Claim informally. Accordingly, neither of us may start a formal proceeding (except for Claims involving any violation of the federal trademark or copyright laws, or for injunctive relief) for at least 30 days after one of us notifies the other of a Claim in writing. IDM will send its notice to your billing address, with a copy via email to your email address.

You will send your notice to:
Atlus U.S.A, Inc.
Attn: Legal Department.
5405 Alton Parkway, Suite A216
Irvine, CA 92604

B. Formal Resolution - US and International Residents
1. Agreement to Arbitrate. If we cannot resolve a Claim informally, we agree that any and all Claims either of us asserts shall be resolved solely through binding arbitration, which to the fullest extent under applicable law shall be final non-appealable. The arbitration will be conducted under the rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service ("JAMS") that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated, including the rules for the exchange of non-privileged and relevant information, and under the rules set forth in this Agreement. If there is a conflict between JAMS rules and the rules set forth in this Agreement, the rules set forth in this Agreement will govern. This arbitration will be governed under the JAMS Streamlined arbitration rules in force at the time the arbitration commences. Other fees will be paid in accordance with JAMS rules. The arbitration will be held at a JAMS dispute resolution center in Orange County, California unless you and IDM both agree to another location. Forms and other information on filing such a Claim can be found at www.jamsadr.com. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATE AS SET FORTH HEREIN, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE BOTH WAIVING OUR RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

2. Special Rules. You and IDM agree that the type of arbitration in which we both agree to participate is between IDM and you as an individual. YOU AND IDM AGREE THAT NEITHER OF US WILL UTILIZE OR ATTEMPT TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION ARBITRATION PROCEDURES IN ANY ARBITRATION.

a. Formal Resolution - Jurisdiction and Choice of Law Both parties submit to personal jurisdiction in California and further agree that any Claim shall be exclusively brought in under the JAMS rules in the County of Orange, State of California. The parties agree that the laws of the State of California shall govern the resolution of any Claim arising out of this agreement.
b. Severability In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall be held by an arbitrator, court, or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, such provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the remaining portions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. In particular in regard to our agreement to arbitrate, you and IDM agree that if that clause is found to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall be severed from this Agreement and - in that event -- you and IDM agree to submit to personal jurisdiction in California and agree that any Claim shall be exclusively brought in the appropriate state or federal court in the County of Orange, State of California. You and IDM also agree that if the arbitration clause is found to be unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then - regardless of the enforceability of any other clause -- any class action Claim shall be exclusively brought in the appropriate state or federal court in the County of Orange, State of California and you agree to submit to personal jurisdiction in California.
