User Submissions
To the extent that the Website provides functionality allowing users to upload, submit, or otherwise transmit any information, image(s), photograph(s), location data, or other material or communications (e.g., user-generated content such as win submissions or any other type of submission (each a “Submission”)), via or in connection with the Website, the following conditions apply.
USE OF YOUR SUBMISSION. By posting or otherwise submitting your Submission you hereby irrevocably assign (and agree to assign) to ERJ, Inc., free and clear of any restriction or encumbrances, all of your rights, title and interest in and to the Submission posted or submitted, including, without limitation, all copyrights, rights in patents, rights in trade secrets, and all rights incidental, subsidiary, ancillary, or allied thereto (including, without limitation, all derivative rights) in and to the Submission. To the extent the assignment granted above fails for any reason, you hereby grant to ERJ an exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide license under your intellectual property rights, with the right to sublicense to third parties the right, to make, access, practice, sell, offer for sale, export, import, copy, use, modify, prepare derivative works from, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, and otherwise exploit in any manner those Submissions with respect to which the foregoing assignment shall have failed. You agree to execute any documents and take any other actions as may reasonably be necessary, or as ERJ may reasonably request, to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce ERJ’s ownership of or license to any such Submissions. In addition to the foregoing, ERJ shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to edit, duplicate, or alter the Submission in any manner for any purpose that ERJ deems necessary or desirable, and you irrevocably waive any and all so-called moral rights you may have in the Submission. You further agree that you shall have no right of approval and no claim to compensation in connection with the Submission.
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES/INDEMNIFICATION. You represent and warrant to ERJ as follows: (a) you are voluntarily submitting the Submission; (b) you understand that no copy of your Submission will be returned to you; (c) the content of the Submission is previously unpublished and is original to you (or, if you are not the person that created the Submission, the person who created the Submission has assigned to you all rights necessary to allow you to assign and grant to ERJ the rights assigned and granted (as the case may be) pursuant to these Terms); (d) the Submission does not disparage ERJ or its competitors, does not contain any unlawful, pornographic, obscene, profane, defamatory, libelous, threatening, or otherwise objectionable material, and does not contain the names of any people (including, without limitation, any celebrities) or any non- ERJ trademarks; (e) the content of the Submission is not the subject of any actual or threatened litigation or claim; and (f) neither the Submission, nor the use of the Submission by ERJ in any manner, venue or media, whether now known or hereafter devised anywhere at any time for any purpose (including, without limitation, for purposes of advertising, promoting and publicizing ERJ and its products and services), will infringe upon or violate the intellectual property rights or other rights of any other person or entity or any applicable laws. You hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless ERJ from and against any and all third-party claims, actions, or proceedings of any kind, and from any and all damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses relating to or arising out of any breach or alleged breach by you of any of your warranties, representations, or agreements hereunder.
Disputes
These Terms shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, as it is applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within such jurisdiction.
To the extent you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate the intellectual property rights of ERJ and/or its affiliates, ERJ and/or its affiliates may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the State of Texas, and you consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
If any other dispute arises under these Terms, we agree to first try to resolve it with the help of a mutually agreed-upon mediator with the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (“JAMS”) in San Antonio, Texas. We will be separately responsible for our respective attorneys fees and the costs and fees associated with the mediation will be shared equally by each of us.
If it proves impossible to arrive at a mutually satisfactory solution through mediation, we agree to submit the dispute to binding arbitration in San Antonio, Texas. This agreement to arbitrate shall be governed by, and enforceable under, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). Any such arbitration shall be in accordance with the Comprehensive Arbitration Procedures of JAMS, as modified by the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures adopted by JAMS. If we cannot agree on the arbitrator after our best efforts, an arbitrator from JAMS will be selected pursuant to the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS in San Antonio, Texas. Judgment upon the award made by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorneys fees and costs and shall each be responsible for one-half of administrative costs and fees associated with any arbitration. You agree to bring any claims on an individual basis and waive, to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable law, the right to bring class, collective, and/or other representative actions.
If any provision of these Terms is void or unenforceable in whole or in part, the remaining provisions of these Terms shall not be affected thereby. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction declares invalid or unenforceable the provision concerning waiver of a class, collective, or other representative action (contained above), only the claims that the arbitrator or court finds can be arbitrated on an individual basis shall be arbitrable under this provision, and any remaining claims must be pursued in court.

Upon termination, you must destroy all materials obtained from the Website and all copies thereof, whether made under these Terms or otherwise.
