Belgium: Warner Bros. - Hro NFT License Terms
These NFT License Terms constitute a legally binding agreement (the “Agreement”) between you and each of Cartamundi Services NV (as licensor of the HRO brand and related assets) and Warner Bros. Consumer Products Inc. (as licensor of the DC Universe including the DC Universe superhero characters and all related assets).  Cartamundi Services NV and Warner Bros. Consumer Products Inc. are each the “Licensor” as to their respective Works (defined below) and are collectively the “Licensors.”
THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS. BY PURCHASING OR OTHERWISE OBTAINING THE PURCHASED NFT (defined below), OR OTHERWISE INDICATING YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT AND YOU ALSO REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OF AGE AND ARE OTHERWISE LEGALLY COMPETENT TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. If you do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, or if you are not at least 18 years of age and otherwise legally competent to enter into this Agreement, you must not proceed with your NFT purchase (or other transfer) or otherwise indicate your acceptance of this Agreement.
  • Definitions
    . As used in this Agreement:
“NFT” means any blockchain-tracked, non-fungible token, such as those conforming to the ERC-721 standard or similar standards that is associated with one or more Works.
“Own” means, with respect to an NFT, that the party is recorded as the rightful owner of the NFT on the relevant blockchain or within records maintained by Cartamundi Services NV, its affiliate, or any of their service providers.
“Purchased NFT” means the NFT purchased by you from the seller (or otherwise transferred to you), which NFT is Owned by the seller prior to the sale or other transfer and Owned by you after the sale or other transfer.
“Third Party IP” means any third-party patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right recognized in any country or jurisdiction in the world.
“Work” means any aspect associated with the Purchased NFT that is or may be protected by patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right recognized in any country or jurisdiction in the world but excluding the physical object transferred with the Purchased NFT if applicable. By way of example only, Works may comprise music, sound-recordings, videos, artwork, graphics, designs (including 2-D and 3-D), photographs, names, likenesses, trademarks, taglines, and trade dress. As a further example, where an NFT includes a physical trading card, the artwork shown on the physical trading card is a “Work.” For purposes of clarity, the Purchased NFT may have more than one Work. By way of example only, the front artwork and back artwork of a digital card NFT are each a Work.

You acknowledge and agree that the Licensor of each Work (or, if and as applicable, its licensor) owns all legal right, title and interest in and to the Work and all intellectual property and other proprietary rights therein recognized in any country or jurisdiction in the world.

  • Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.
    • YOU ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP ANY RIGHTS TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY, OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT MAY ALSO BE UNAVAILABLE OR MAY BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION. ANY CLAIM, DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE, WHETHER PRE-EXISTING, PRESENT OR FUTURE, AND INCLUDING STATUTORY, CONSUMER PROTECTION, COMMON LAW, INTENTIONAL TORT, INJUNCTIVE AND EQUITABLE CLAIMS) BETWEEN YOU AND EITHER LICENSOR ARISING FROM OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE PURCHASED NFT, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION.
    • The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“
      AAA
      ”) in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “
      AAA Rules
      ”) then in effect, except as modified by this Section 8. (The AAA Rules are available at adr.org or by calling the AAA at +1-800-778-7879.) The United States Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 8. If the dispute has a claimed value of not more than US $250,000, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator who is a retired judge or a lawyer with not less than 15 years’ experience as a practicing member of the bar in the substantive practice area related to the dispute. If the dispute has a claimed value of more than $250,000, or if any Licensor who is a party to the dispute elects in its sole discretion to bear the costs of arbitration in excess of those that would occur for a proceeding before a single neutral arbitrator, then the arbitration will be heard and determined by a three member panel. If there are 3 parties to the dispute, then each party will select one member of the panel. If there are 2 parties to the dispute, then each party will select one member and the third member (who will be chair of the panel) will be selected by the two party appointed members or by the AAA. The arbitrator or panel will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the Agreement is void, voidable or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator or panel will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator or panel will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
    • You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, YOU WILL NOT BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER PERSONS OR ENTITIES IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's or entity’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
    • The foregoing provisions of Section 8 will not apply to any legal action taken by Licensor to seek an injunction or other equitable relief in connection with any loss, cost, or damage (or any potential loss, cost, or damage) relating to its intellectual property rights, its products, or its services. You agree that such claims may be brought in the state or federal courts located in the New York, New York and you waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
    • ANY CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CLAIM ACCRUES; OTHERWISE, SUCH CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.
  • Miscellaneous
    . This Agreement is the sole and entire agreement with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement cannot be amended except in an express writing signed by at least two authorized representatives of each Licensor. In the event of any conflict between this Agreement, the HRO Marketplace App Terms of Use and the terms of any other marketplace used in connection with any transfer of the Purchased NFT, the following order of precedence shall apply: (1) the terms of this Agreement; (2) the HRO Marketplace App Terms of Use; (3) the terms of any other marketplace used in connection with the transfer of the Purchased NFT. If you are provided a translation of this Agreement, the original version in English will be used in deciding any issues or disputes which arise under this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. This Agreement and all matters related to it shall be governed by, construed, and enforced in accordance with the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York, as they are applied to agreements entered into and to be performed entirely within the State of New York and without regard to conflict of law principles, except to the extent that law is inconsistent with or preempted by federal law.
