The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. Licensor reserves the right to remove any material on the Site which allegedly infringes another person’s copyright. If You believe in good faith that materials hosted by Licensor infringe Your copyright, You (or Your agent) may send us a notice requesting that the materials be removed, or access to them blocked.

An electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest;

A description of the copyrighted work that You claim has been infringed.  Please describe the work and, where possible, include a copy or the location (e.g., URL) of an authorized version of Your work;

    • A statement by You, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in Your notice is accurate and that You are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf.If You believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against You, the DMCA permits You to send us a counter-notice.

Notices and counter-notices for the Site should be sent to: notices@tradesavant.com.

We suggest that You consult Your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be substantial penalties for false claims.

19. Arbitration.

Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions or the Site will be finally settled by arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules (the “Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association. Any such controversy or claim will be arbitrated on an individual basis and will not be consolidated in any arbitration with any claim or controversy of any other party. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. All arbitration proceedings will be conducted in metropolitan Boston, Massachusetts and in English by a single arbitrator selected under the Rules who must be a lawyer admitted to practice law in Massachusetts and fluent in English. The arbitrator has no authority to award damages in excess of those permitted in these Terms and Conditions for any reason. Any award in excess of such limitation will be deemed void as between the parties. Either you or Licensor may seek any interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction necessary to protect the rights or the property of you or Licensor (or its affiliates, agents, suppliers, and subcontractors), pending the completion of arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator shall be binding upon the parties hereto, and the expense of the arbitration (including without limitation the award of attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party) shall be paid as the arbitrator determines. The decision of the arbitrator may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. You agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Massachusetts for the purposes of any judicial proceedings to obtain interim relief and in aid of the arbitration or judicial proceedings to confirm or enforce the award.

20. Waiver

Failure to insist on strict performance of any of these Terms and Conditions will not operate as a waiver of any subsequent default or failure of performance. No waiver by Licensor of any right under these Terms and Conditions will be deemed to be either a waiver of any other right or provision or a waiver of that same right or provision at any other time.

21. Severability

If any part of these Terms and Conditions is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and the liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most clearly matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of these Terms and Conditions shall continue in effect.
