Privacy/Terms

Last Revised: September 1, 2022

This Privacy Policy applies to all users of RulingSports.com (“Ruling Sports”) and its associated websites, subdomains, mobile versions, any associated applications and services (collectively, the “Website”), which are operated by Ruling Sports LLC.

Ruling Sports understands that your privacy is important to you and that you care about how your Personal Information is used and shared online. We respect and value the privacy of everyone who visits this Website, and will only collect and use Personal Information in ways that are described here, and in a manner that is consistent with our obligations and your rights under the law.

In conjunction with the Terms of Service, below, this Privacy Policy sets out the basis on which any Personal Information you provide will be collected, processed, used and stored by us. Please read it carefully. By visiting this Website, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this Privacy Policy, which may be amended at our sole discretion from time to time. If you use the Website after we have published such changes, you will be agreeing to be bound by those changes. If you do not agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy at any time, you should not use the Website.

Registration on our Website

You must be the age of Majority or older (18 in most states of the United States; older in some jurisdictions) to create an account on the Website, if account creation becomes available. While individuals under the age of 18 (but not younger than 13) may use the Website, they must do so only with the consent and involvement of a parent or legal guardian, under such person’s account and otherwise subject to our Terms of Service. Ruling Sports does not seek through this Website to gather Personal Information from or about persons under the age of 13. NOTICE: Visit www.OnGuardOnline.gov for tips from the Federal Trade Commission on protecting children’s privacy online.

If we become aware that you are under the age of Majority and are attempting to or have submitted Personal Information via the Website, we will not accept such information and we will take steps to remove such information from our records. This may involve us having to access and verify your age and other relevant details.

B. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains the following:

What information we collect about you and why;

How we use information about you;

How your information may be shared;

How we store and process information about you;

When and how we communicate with you;

How long we may keep Personal Information about you;

How you can opt-out from receiving communications from us;

Cookies and our Analysis Tools;

Information over the Internet and other Websites;

Legal disclaimer; and

How to contact us.

What information we collect about you and why:

We may collect two types of information: Personal Information (“PI”) and information that is not personally identifiable (“Non-PI”). Please note that we do not sell your PI to anyone.

What PI Do We Collect?

When you sign up for our newsletter, we ask for information such as your email address. We also acquire your Internet protocol address and/or mobile device identification, which certain jurisdictions consider to be PI because it could be used to identify an individual or device if it were combined with other identifying information.
We may capture user information when users send us questions or comments via e-mail. PI collected in this manner will only be used to contact the user and/or respond to the user’s inquiry/issue. Sending us an email will not enroll you on our email list unless you specifically request it.
For purchases made through the Website, a third-party payment processor will collect your full name, email address, postal address, contact details and credit or debit card information (“Billing Information”). This record will be stored and processed in the United States and other countries (see further below under “How we use information about you” and “How we store and process information about you”). By making a purchase, you grant to Ruling Sports and to all other persons and entities involved in the operation of the Website (collectively, the “Third-Parties”), the right to use, store, monitor, retrieve and transmit your account information in connection with the operation of the Website and as otherwise provided herein. You also agree that such access and use of your Personal Information is governed by the Third Parties’ privacy policies. Ruling Sports is not responsible or liable for the content, activities or privacy policies of any Third Parties or their sites. Accordingly, please refer to the Third-Parties’ respective privacy policies.

Ruling Sports does not request on or through the Website other information that is often considered “highly sensitive,” such as other financial account information (e.g., credit report information, bank account numbers), personal health information, or government issued identification (e.g., your Social Security Number, drivers’ license, or passport), although we reserve the right to do so when such information is necessary to verify your Billing Information.

Ruling Sports takes reasonable precautions to protect the confidentiality and security of your Personal Information by using industry recognized security safeguards such as site monitoring, secured networks and servers, firewalls and/or encryption. When you enter PI, we encrypt the transmission of that information or use SSL connections (Secure Socket Layer) technology. Your credit card information is always encrypted during transfer over networks. Unfortunately, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure. Therefore, while we strive to protect your Personal Information within industry standards, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Ruling Sports may also obtain your Personal Information through your use of social media depending on your settings or the privacy policies of these websites. To change your settings on these services, please refer to their respective privacy notices.

What Non-PI Do We Collect?

Some of the information that we acquire cannot identify, distinguish or trace you or your device, even if combined with other identifying information, and some information that could be considered PI when combined with other identifying information is not used in a way that identifies, distinguishes or traces you or your device, but is instead used in an anonymous way, often aggregated with other anonymous information about other users.
If your Personal Information changes, or if you no longer choose to use our services or the Website, you can contact customer service by emailing us at info@rulingsports.com to assist you with changes to your account. To the extent your account closes or becomes inactive, we will continue to protect your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

How we use information about you:

We may use the PI we collect in the following ways:

to provide users with news, events, personalized offers, promotions and other relevant information. Such direct marketing shall be sent in response to a request from a user to receive newsletters, marketing emails or similar communications, or when a user has expressed interest in such content or services;
to contact users with updates and relevant information about our content, products and/or services because they have signed up to do so through our Website;

to quickly process user requests for information and to allow us to respond efficiently to user questions;

to monitor Website statistics;

to respond to or satisfy legal requirements, such as a court order, a subpoena, or a law enforcement agency’s or other public agency’s request;

to help prevent the instigation of a crime, to help facilitate an investigation related to public safety, to help protect the safety of a child using our Website, to help protect the security or integrity of our Website, or to enable us to take precautions against liability;

to provide information to service providers or such companies who provide support for the operations of our Website and who do not use or disclose the information for any other purpose;

to administer a contest or other promotion, survey or other features; and

to allow us to disclose your information to the extent permitted by law.

How your information may be shared:

Except as set forth below, we do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to third parties our users’ PI unless we receive their consent. That being said, in the following situations, we may share PI with outside parties:

Affiliates and Sponsors. In connection with our content and advertisements, which you would only receive after opting-in, our Affiliates and/or Sponsors may collect PI.

Subsidiaries, Website Consultants and Service Providers. We may disclose PI to our subsidiaries, third-party consultants and service providers (such as providers of hosting, support, maintenance, third-party payment processing agencies, and remedial and repair services) to the extent that they require access to our databases, or the information contained in our databases, to service us and the Website;

Enforcement of Rights/Security. We reserve the right to release PI (i) when we are under legal compulsion to do so (e.g. we have received a subpoena) or we otherwise believe that the law requires us to do so, (ii) when we believe it is necessary to protect and/or enforce the rights, property interests, or our safety, the safety of our users, or the safety of others, or (iii) as we deem necessary to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, prevent fraud and otherwise enforce the Privacy Policy and other Website user agreements;

Reorganization or Sale. In the event that we merge with or become a part of another organization, or in the event that we are sold, we sell all or substantially all of our assets, or we are otherwise reorganized, the information you provide will be one of the transferred assets to the acquiring or reorganized entity;

To Help Protect Minor Users of Our Website. In the event that the safety of our users is threatened, and we are able to do something about that by sharing PI with third-parties, we reserve the right to do so. This may be done to prevent the instigation of a crime, to help facilitate an investigation related to public safety, to help protect the safety of a child using our Website, to help protect the security or integrity of our Website, or to enable us to take precautions against liability;

As Otherwise Allowed by Law. We may transfer PI to third-parties where we are expressly authorized by applicable law to do so;

Aggregated Information. We may aggregate information that you provide with information provided by other individuals in such a manner that the information is not personally identifiable to you, and we may transfer that aggregated information to third-parties;

We may make available services such as blogs, message boards, comments and chat functionality to which you are able to post information and materials. Please note that any information you disclose through such services or otherwise on the Website becomes public information, and may be available to visitors to the Website and to the general public. In addition, when you choose to make a posting on such services certain PI will be available for other users to view. We urge you to exercise discretion and caution when deciding to disclose PI about you, or any other information, on the Website. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE USE BY ANY THIRD-PARTY OF ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU VOLUNTARILY DISCLOSE THROUGH ANY SUCH SERVICES OR OTHERWISE ON THE WEBSITE; and

With your express consent.

How we store and process information about you:

This Website is hosted in the United States. In order to communicate with you about content, the information that we collect from you may be transferred to, stored, used and processed by Ruling Sports in the United States or one of our service providers based in the United States or outside of the United States. Such entities may be engaged in, among other things: (i) preparing and sending newsletters to which you subscribe; (ii) the processing of payment details; and (iii) the provision of support services.

If you are visiting from the European Union or other regions with laws governing information collection and use that may differ from United States law, please note that you are transferring your PI to the United States. The laws of some countries may not provide the same levels of protection of PI as your home country, particularly if you are resident in the European Union. By submitting information, you agree to the collection, transfer, storage, use and processing of information about you for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. When you provide PI to us or our service providers or vendors, you consent to the processing of your information in the United States as the Website is operated in the United States. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that information about you is treated securely in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and that all information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our service providers.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES TREAT YOUR INFORMATION IN A MANNER THAT MAY BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT FROM, AND LESS PROTECTIVE THAN, THE TREATMENT REQUIRED UNDER THE LAWS OF OTHER COUNTRIES AND JURISDICTIONS. IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR INFORMATION TRANSFERRED TO THE UNITED STATES, YOU SHOULD NOT SHARE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION WITH US, OR MAKE USE OF THIS WEBSITE.

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LAW OF THE COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED, YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO REQUIRE US TO TREAT YOUR IDENTIFYING INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF ANY COUNTRY OR JURISDICTION OTHER THAN THE UNITED STATES. HOWEVER, THE FOREGOING WAIVER MAY NOT BE LEGALLY BINDING IN SOME COUNTRIES, SUCH AS THE MEMBER STATES OF THE EUROPEAN UNION. TO THE EXTENT IT IS NOT LEGALLY BINDING IN THE COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED, THIS FOREGOING WAIVER DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.

When and how we communicate with you:

You may unsubscribe from promotional emails and other commercial communications by following the instructions contained within the communication or emailing us at: info@rulingsports.com. Please note that due to marketing production schedules you may receive messages already in production.

How long we will hold Personal Information about you:

We will hold PI about you on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant service, subject to any applicable laws and/or regulations. In the case that you wish to remove your PI from our list, once the PI is deleted, we will not use the PI about you other than for administrative purposes.

How you can opt-out from receiving communications from us:

At any time you can add or remove your name from a Ruling Sports list by contacting us at info@rulingsports.com.

We will endeavor to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable. Please keep in mind that if you opt-out of receiving promotional messages from this Website, we will continue to send you transactional messages and important account-related information regarding this Website or content or services offered through this Website.

Cookies and our Analysis Tools

We may use cookies, log files, clear gifs, and/or similar devices to identify you, to keep track of the user’s interactions with the Website, and to enhance certain activities available on the Website. These devices are small text or other electronic files that are used for user-identification purposes, record-keeping purposes, and to increase the ease of use of the Website. We may use persistent or not-persistent cookies. Users can remove or reject persistent cookies by following the directions provided in their Internet browser’s “help” file. If a user removes a persistent cookie or rejects persistent cookies, the functionality of the Website, or any part thereof, may be impaired or unavailable.

Information over the Internet and other Websites

The Internet is a global network and, therefore, there are times when information about you travels globally and may not always be completely secure. If you provide us with information over the Internet, this will be at your own risk. By using the Website, you agree and authorize us to process information in this way. However, please be assured that we use commercially reasonable procedures and security features to prevent unauthorized access to information about you.

Legal disclaimer

We are not responsible nor will we be liable to you in any way for events beyond our direct control. Because of the complex and constantly changing nature of our technology and business, we cannot guarantee nor do we represent that our performance will be error free, and to the maximum extent permitted by law we will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages or other loss suffered by you and relating to the use or release of your PI.

YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

Shine the Light Law

A California privacy law that went into effect on January 1, 2005, the “Shine the Light” law, allows California residents to obtain a list of third-parties to whom a business has disclosed personal information if it shares such information with third-parties for their direct marketing purposes. However, if a business adopts and discloses in its privacy policy a policy of not disclosing customers’ personal information to third-parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure, the business may comply with the law by notifying the customer of his or her right to prevent disclosure of personal information and by providing a cost-free means to exercise that right.

As stated earlier in this Privacy Policy, PI submitted at the time of registration or submission may be used for marketing and promotional purposes only with the user’s permission. Whenever a user agrees to allow us to collect PI, we provide the user with an option to prevent such information from being shared for marketing and promotional purposes with third-parties. Furthermore, you may exercise this cost-free option at any time by sending an email to info@rulingsports.com.

Because the Website has a comprehensive privacy policy and provides you with details on how you may opt-in or opt-out of the use of your PI by third parties for direct marketing purposes, we are not required to provide you with the third-party list.

California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”)

You will cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any such claim or action; however, we reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you.

Prohibited Uses of User Content. Except as otherwise permitted by these Terms, in connection with your User Content, you further agree that you will not publish, post, submit, transmit through or otherwise make available to the Website: (i) any falsehoods or misrepresentations that could damage Ruling sports or any third party; (ii) any material which is unlawful; defamatory; libelous; slanderous; pornographic; obscene; abusive; profane; vulgar; sexually explicit; threatening; harassing; harmful; hateful; racially or ethnically offensive or otherwise objectionable; creates a risk of harm, loss, physical or mental injury, emotional distress, death, disability, disfigurement, or physical or mental illness to yourself, to any other person, or to any animal; or which encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, violate any law or any right of privacy or publicity; or is otherwise inappropriate; (iii) advertisements or solicitations of business, products, or services; or (iv) any material that would be harmful to minors in any manner.

No Responsibility for User Content. With the exception of the limited license granted above, we do not obtain or control any rights in, and do not exert editorial control over, User Content. Nothing herein obligates us to verify, and we have not necessarily verified, the representations and warranties made by Users with respect to such User Content.

Non-Ruling Sports Content Disclaimer. You understand that when using the Website you may be exposed to User Content, advertising and other third-party content (together, the “Non-Ruling Sports Content”) from a variety of sources and that you may be exposed to Non-Ruling Sports Content that is inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or otherwise objectionable. Ruling Sports does not endorse any Non-Ruling Sports Content or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein.

Non-Monitoring of Users and Non-Ruling Sports Content. You understand that you, and not Ruling Sports, are entirely responsible for all User Content that you upload, post, email, transmit or otherwise make available through the Website.

A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;

Information reasonably sufficient to permit Ruling Sports to contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an email address at which the complaining party may be contacted;

A statement that the complaining party has a good-faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and

A statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

FAILURE TO INCLUDE ALL OF THE ABOVE INFORMATION, ESPECIALLY SPECIFIC INFORMATION ABOUT WHERE INFRINGING CONTENT MAY BE FOUND, WILL RESULT IN A DELAY IN THE PROCESSING OF YOUR DMCA NOTIFICATION AND MAY RESULT IN YOUR HAVING TO REPEAT SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE PROCESS.

Notice and Takedown. If we receive proper notification of claimed copyright infringement, we will respond expeditiously by removing, or disabling access to, the material that is claimed to be infringing, as described below, or to be the subject of infringing activity. We will also comply with the appropriate provisions of the DMCA in the event a counter-notification is received, as described below. We may, at our discretion, deny access to the Website by, or disable and/or terminate the accounts of, Users who may be infringers.

Copyright Counter-Notices. If content you posted on the Website was removed for copyright or intellectual property infringement, and you would like to dispute that removal, the process for counter-notifications, which is governed by Section 512(g) of the DMCA, is as follows:

To file a counter-notification with us, you must provide our Copyright Agent, at info@rulingsports.com, with a written communication that sets forth the items specified below. Please note that under Section 512(f) of the DMCA, any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability. Please also be advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of the accounts of (or access privileges by) Users who are infringers. Accordingly, if you are not sure whether certain material infringes your copyright or the copyrights of others, we suggest that you first contact an attorney.

Elements of Counter-Notification. To expedite our ability to process your counter- notification, please use the following format (including section numbers):

Identify the specific URLs of (or other information sufficient to allow us to identify) material that Ruling Sports has removed or to which Ruling Sports has disabled access.

Provide your full name, address, telephone number, email address and, if you are a registered User, the User name of your Ruling Sports account.

Provide a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the Central District of California and the Federal District Court for the judicial district in which your address is located (if your address is outside of the U.S.A.), and that you will accept service of process from the person who provided notification to our Copyright Agent in accordance with the process outlined above or an agent of such person.

Include the following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that I have a good-faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of a mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled.”

Sign the notice. If you are providing notice by email, a scanned physical signature or a valid electronic signature will be accepted. Send the communication to the following email address: info@rulingsports.com.

After we receive your counter-notification, we will forward it to the party who submitted the original claim of copyright infringement. Please note that when we forward the counter-notification, it includes any of your Identifying Information set forth in the counter-notification. By submitting a counter-notification, you consent to having such Identifying Information revealed in this way. We will not forward the counter-notification to any party other than the original claimant. After we send out the counter-notification, the claimant must then notify us within ten (10) days that he or she has filed an action seeking a court order to restrain you from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on the Website. If we receive such notification, we will be unable to restore the items. If we do not receive such notification, we may, but are not obligated to, reinstate the disputed item(s).

Foreign Counter-Notification: If you reside outside of the United States, please understand that filing a counter-notice may lead to legal proceedings between you and the complaining party to determine ownership. Be aware that there may be adverse legal consequences in your country and/or the United States of America if you make a false or bad faith allegation by using this process. Please also be advised that we enforce a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of access privileges for Users who are infringers. So, if you are not sure whether content you posted on the Website is being infringed or are otherwise unsure of whether to file a counter-notification using these procedures, we strongly recommend you first contact a lawyer knowledgeable in the laws of the United States and the State of California. If you do wish to file a counter-notice, you should follow the process set forth above under the heading “Elements of Counter-Notification.”

Governing Law. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.

Arbitration Agreement and Waiver of Certain Rights. You and Ruling Sports agree to resolve any disputes between you and Ruling Sports through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and Ruling Sports each hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any controversy, claim, counterclaim, or other dispute arising between you and Ruling Sport relating to these Terms or the Website or Ruling Sports Material (each a “Claim,” and collectively, “Claims”). Any Claim will be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. selected by Ruling Sports. The arbitrator’s decision will be in writing, will include the arbitrator’s reasons for the decision, will be final and binding upon the parties, and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. You agree that any action of whatever nature arising from or relating to these Terms or our Services, Website or Ruling Sports Materials will be filed only in the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles, California. You consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of any such action. The parties agree that the arbitration will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, but not limited to, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged, any testimony or other oral submissions, and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration or by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies. If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Ruling Sports will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or Ruling Sports from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and Ruling Sports each also have the right to bring any qualifying claim in small claims court. In addition, you and Ruling Sports each retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request will not be deemed to be either incompatible with these Terms or a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms. If any provision of this section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be deemed appropriately modified to give effect to the intent of the provision or, if modification is not possible, will be severed and the remainder of this section will continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this section will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver will not waive or affect any other provision of these Terms. This section of these Terms will survive the termination of your relationship with Ruling Sports. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending, within 30-days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement, written notice of your decision to opt-out to info@rulingsports.com. Your notice must include your name and address, any usernames, each email address you have used to set up an account on Ruling Sports’ Services, and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement. You agree that if you opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with Ruling Sports. This section limits certain rights, including the right to maintain certain court actions, the right to a jury trial, the right to participate in any form of class or representative claim, the right to engage in discovery except as provided in the AAA rules, and the right to certain remedies and forms of relief. In addition, other rights that you or Ruling Sports would have in court may not be available in arbitration.

No Class Representative or Private Attorney General: You and Ruling Sports each agree that neither may act as a class representative or private attorney general or participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any claim. You agree that claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only individual claims (whether brought by you or Ruling Sports). The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.

Claims. YOU AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION BROUGHT BY YOU ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE WEBSITE MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. If, for any reason, we believe, have reason to believe, suspect or are notified of any act, omission or circumstances which may or could (i) compromise or endanger the health, well-being or safety of any person, (ii) cause or lead to damage to persons or property (tangible or intangible), (iii) adversely affect, infringe upon or misappropriate the rights of others, (iv) harass or interfere with any other user or person, firm or enterprise, (v) interfere with or bypass our security or other protective measures applicable to our systems, networks and communications capabilities, (vi) breach or violate these Terms, or (vii) violate any law or regulation, we have the right, reserving cumulatively all other rights and remedies available to us at law, in equity and under this agreement with you, to report and provide information to any and all regulatory and law enforcement authorities and agencies and take any action permitted by law.

Waiver. A provision of these Terms may be waived only by a written instrument executed by the party entitled to the benefit of such provision. The failure of Ruling Sports to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms shall be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

No Waiver or Amendment: The failure by Ruling Sports to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not prevent Ruling sports from enforcing such right or provision in the future and will not be deemed to modify these Terms.
