Effective date: October 1, 2020
Welcome to the website of Timthetatman. This website is operated by TIM THE TATMAN, INC. Throughout the site, the terms “Timthetatman,” “we”, “our” and/or “us” refer to TIM THE TATMAN, INC. Please read on to learn the rules that our lawyer told us that we had to share with you about your use of this website and other stuff that we make available to you (the “Services”). If you have any questions, please send us an e-mail to support@timthetatman.com.
By visiting our website, you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions (the “Terms of Use” or “Terms”). Please read these Terms carefully before accessing or using our website. You must agree to and accept all of the Terms, or you do not have the right to use the Services. We wanted to tell you that by clicking on the “Accept” button, or using the Services in any way means that you agree to all of these Terms. These Terms include the provisions in this document, as well as those in our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms and conditions set forth or posted within the Timthetatman store located at https://timthetatman.com/merch.
You represent and warrant that you are an individual of legal age to form a binding contract (or if not, you have received your parent’s or guardian’s permission to use the Services and gotten your parent or guardian to agree to these Terms on your behalf). Or if you are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of an organization or entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to agree to these Terms on that organization or entity’s behalf and bind them to these Terms (in which case, the references to “you” and “your” in these Terms, except for in this sentence, refer to that organization or entity).
You will only use the Services in a manner that complies with all laws that apply to you. If your use of the Services is prohibited by applicable laws, then you are not authorized to use the Services. We are not responsible for your using the Services in a way that breaks the law.
You represent, warrant, and agree that you will not contribute any Content or User Submission (each of those terms is defined below) or otherwise use the Services or interact with the Services in a manner that:
A violation of any of the foregoing is grounds for termination of your right to use or access the Services.
We are constantly trying to improve our Services, so these Terms may need to change along with the Services. Any new features which are added to the website shall also be subject to the Terms of Use. You can review the most current version of the Terms of Use at any time by visiting this page. We reserve the right to update, change, or replace any part of these Terms of Use at any time by posting updates and/or changes to our website. It is your responsibility to check this page periodically for changes.
If you do not agree with the new Terms, you are free to reject them; unfortunately, that means you will no longer be able to use the Services. If you use the Services in any way after a change to the Terms is made effective, this means that you agree to all of the changes. Except for changes by us as described here, no other amendment or modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both you and us.
Timthetatman takes the privacy of its users seriously. For the current Timthetatman Privacy Policy, please click Privacy Policy.
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”) requires that online service providers obtain parental consent before they knowingly collect personally identifiable information online from children who are under 13. We do not knowingly collect or solicit personally identifiable information from a child under 13 without obtaining verifiable consent from that child’s parent or guardian (“Parental Consent”), except for the limited amount of personally identifiable information we need to collect in order to obtain Parental Consent (“Required Information”). Until we have received Parental Consent, we will only use Required Information for the purpose of obtaining Parental Consent. If you are a child under 13, please do not attempt to send any personal information about yourself to us before we obtain Parental Consent, except for the Required Information in the context of the Parental Consent process. If you believe that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information (beyond the Required Information) without our obtaining Parental Consent, please contact us at support@timthetatman.com.
All rights and title in and to the Services (including, without limitation, any titles, software code, themes, objects, characters and names, stories, dialogue, phrases, locations, concepts, artwork, sounds, animations, musical compositions, audio-visual effects, any Content (defined below), recordings of any games played on or within the Services) are owned by us and our licensors, and protected by United States and international laws.
In connection with your use of the Services, you hereby grant us a non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free right, irrevocable right and license to store and use any data, information, media, text, and User Submissions (as defined below) as necessary for us to perform, provide, enhance and improve the Services and/or any similar offerings. To the extent that we have not retained these rights, you further grant us a non-exclusive, irrevocable, worldwide, sublicensable right and license to create, distribute, monetize, and exploit any images, videos, or other User Content that we obtain, record, or otherwise capture from your use of the Services.
The materials displayed or performed or available on or through the Services, including, but not limited to, text, graphics, data, articles, photos, images, illustrations, User Submissions, and so forth (all of the foregoing, the “Content”) are protected by copyright and/or other intellectual property laws. You promise to abide by all copyright notices, trademark rules, information, and restrictions contained in any Content you access through the Services, and you will not use, copy, reproduce, modify, translate, publish, broadcast, transmit, distribute, perform, upload, display, license, sell or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content not owned by you, (i) without the prior consent of the owner of that Content or (ii) in a way that violates someone else’s (including Timthetatman’s) rights.
You understand that Timthetatman owns the Services. You will not modify, publish, transmit, participate in the transfer or sale of, reproduce (except as expressly provided in this Section), create derivative works based on, or otherwise exploit any of the Services. The Services may allow you to copy or download certain Content; please remember that just because this functionality exists, all the restrictions above still apply. Please also note that certain trademarks which are displayed on or through the Services are the property of their respective holders or affiliates. For example, the Twitter, Tweet, Retweet and the Twitter logo, are trademarks of Twitter, Inc. or its affiliates.
Anything you post, transmit, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services is your “User Submission.” In order to display your User Submissions on the Services, and to allow other users to enjoy them (if applicable), you grant us certain rights in those User Submissions. Please note that all of the following licenses are subject to our Privacy Policy to the extent they relate to User Submissions that are also your personally-identifiable information. For all User Submissions, you hereby grant Timthetatman a license to translate, modify (for technical purposes, for example making sure your content is viewable on an iPhone as well as other devices) and reproduce and otherwise act with respect to such User Submissions, in each case to enable us to operate the Services, as described in more detail below. This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.
If you provide us (in a direct email or otherwise) with any feedback, suggestions, improvements, enhancements, and/or feature requests relating to the Services (each of the foregoing, a “Public User Submission”), then you grant Timthetatman the licenses above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Public User Submission for the purpose of making that Public User Submission accessible to all Timthetatman users and providing the Services necessary to do so, as well as all other rights necessary to use and exercise all rights in that Public User Submission in connection with the Services and/or otherwise in connection with Timthetatman’s business, for any purpose. Also, you grant all other users of the Services a license to access that Public User Submission, and to use and exercise all rights in it, as permitted by the functionality of the Services.
You agree that the licenses you grant are royalty-free, perpetual, sublicenseable, irrevocable, and worldwide. Finally, you understand and agree that Timthetatman, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt those User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.
Any information or content publicly posted or privately transmitted through the Services is the sole responsibility of the person from whom such content originated, you access all such information and content at your own risk, and we are not liable for any errors or omissions in that information or content or for any damages or loss you might suffer in connection with it. We cannot control and have no duty to take any action regarding how you may interpret and use the Content or what actions you may take as a result of having been exposed to the Content, and you hereby release us from all liability for you having acquired or not acquired Content through the Services. We cannot guarantee the identity of any users with whom you interact in using the Services and are not responsible for which users gain access to the Services.
You are responsible for all Content you contribute, in any manner, to the Services, and you represent and warrant you have all rights necessary to do so, in the manner in which you contribute it. You will keep all your registration information accurate and current. You are responsible for all your activity in connection with the Services.
The Services may contain links or connections to third-party websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Timthetatman. When you access third party websites or use third party services, you accept that there are risks in doing so, and that Timthetatman is not responsible for such risks. We encourage you to be aware when you leave the Services and to read the terms and conditions and privacy policy of each third party website or service that you visit or utilize.
Timthetatman has no control over, and assumes no responsibility for, the content, accuracy, privacy policies, or practices of or opinions expressed in any third party websites or by any third party that you interact with through the Services. In addition, Timthetatman will not and cannot monitor, verify, censor or edit the content of any third-party site or service. By using the Services, you release and hold us harmless from any and all liability arising from your use of any third party website or service.
Your interactions with organizations and/or individuals found on or through the Services, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such dealings, are solely between you and such organizations and/or individuals. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction with any of these third parties. You agree that Timthetatman shall not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any such dealings.
If there is a dispute between participants on this site, or between users and any third party, you agree that Timthetatman is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you release Timthetatman, its officers, employees, agents, and successors from claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes and/or our Services. If you are a California resident, you shall and hereby do waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor 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 must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor."
We are always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. We will try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this is not always practical. Similarly, we reserve the right to remove any Content from the Services at any time, for any reason (including, but not limited to, if someone alleges you contributed that Content in violation of these Terms), in our sole discretion, and without notice. Services may vary depending on the operating system you use to access the website and certain Services may not be available on certain devices.
The Timthetatman Services are currently free, but we reserve the right to charge for certain or all Services in the future. We will notify you before any Services you are then using begin carrying a fee, and if you wish to continue using such Services, you must pay all applicable fees for such Services. Of course, all merchandise offered through the Timthetatman web shop carries the fees as shown.
You are free to do that at any time; please refer to our Privacy Policy, as well as the licenses above, to understand how we treat information you provide to us after you have stopped using our Services.
Timthetatman is also free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services, for any reason in our discretion, including your breach of these Terms. Timthetatman has the sole right to decide whether you are in violation of any of the restrictions set forth in these Terms.
Provisions that, by their nature, should survive termination of these Terms shall survive termination. By way of example, all of the following will survive termination: any obligation you have to pay us or indemnify us, any limitations on our liability, any terms regarding ownership or intellectual property rights, and terms regarding disputes between us.

("JAMS") then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules.
