3.7. Modification/Suspension/Discontinuation:

We regularly make changes to the Services. The availability of the Content, as well as Access Points and compatible Jme Ready Devices through which the Services are available, will change from time to time. NCMA reserves the right to replace or remove any Content and Access Points available to you through the Services. We may change, suspend, or discontinue - temporarily or permanently - some or all of the Services (including the Content and the Compatible Jme Ready Devices through which the Services are accessed), with respect to any or all users, without notice in NCMA’s solo discretion at any time. You agree that NCMA will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services, although if you are a Jme subscriber and NCMA suspends or discontinues your subscription to the Services, NCMA may, in its sole discretion, provide you with a credit, refund, discount or other form of consideration (for example, we may credit additional days of service to your account) in accordance with Section 4 below. However, if NCMA terminates your account or suspends or discontinues your access to Services due to your violation of these Terms, then you will not be eligible for any such credit, refund, discount, or other consideration.

3.8. Customer Support:

If you need any support or assistance while you are using our Services, we encourage you to visit our Jme support site.

4. Subscriptions, Free Trial, Billing, and Cancellation:

4.1. Subscriptions. While we may offer the Content for free from time to time, we charge a subscription fee to access the Services. The Services may include different Content offerings and features, with different benefits, conditions, fees, and limitations. You can find the specific details regarding your subscription and fee options at any time by logging in on the Site and viewing your account details. Because the Services are offered in multiple time zones, for consistency, a "day" for purposes of these Terms begins at 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time and ends at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time of that same calendar day.

4.2. Cleeng, Third Party Billing Vender. NCMA currently uses Cleeng which specializes in mobile and web payment systems for e-commerce companies, as our third party vender, and which provides our customers with account setting and a payment gateway, along with various features including recurring billing, credit card storage, support for mobile and international payments. NCMA reserves the right to select or change to another third party vendor at NCMA’s sole discretion.

All monetary transactions of your Jme account shall be handled and processed by Cleeng or such other third party vendor as we may select from time to time or at any time (each a “Third Party Vendor”). In no event does NCMA assume any responsibility or liability for any monetary transactions in regard to your Jme account using a Third Party Vendor, and you hereby waive any legal or equitable rights or remedies you may have against NCMA with respect to the above.

4.3. Billing: By providing a credit card or other payment methods to Jme ("Payment Method") in connection with your subscription, you expressly agree that any periodic subscription fee on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription, any other fees for additional services you may purchase, with any applicable taxes, in connection with your use of your subscription to the Payment Method will be charged to your account.

PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO PRORATED REFUNDS OF ANY FEES UPON ANY TERMINATION.

If there is any change in your credit card validity or expiration date, you may edit your Payment Method information by logging in on the Site and viewing your account details. When you provide a Payment Method to access a subscription, including in connection with a free trial offer, the Cleeng system (or other applicable Third Party Vendor system that we authorize) will attempt to verify the information you entered. This may be done by processing an authorization hold, which is a standard practice in the industry. We do not charge you in connection with this authorization hold. If your Payment Method expires and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account, you authorize us to continue billing (directly or via a Third Party Vendor), and you will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.

As used in these Terms, "billing” shall indicate either a charge or debit, as applicable, against your Payment Method. The subscription fee will be charged at the beginning of your subscription or expiration of your free trial period, if any, whichever is earlier, and on each periodic renewal date thereafter unless and until you cancel your subscription or the account or service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. Your Payment Method will be automatically charged on the calendar day corresponding to commencement of your subscription. For subscribers whose subscription starts with a free trial, billing will commence upon the expiration of the free trial.

The interval of time between each payment due date shall correspond to the term of your subscription and be referred to herein as a "Billing Period." In the event that your subscription began on a day not contained in a given month, we bill your Payment Method on the last day of such month. For example, if you have a monthly subscription and became a paying subscriber on January 31, your Payment Method would next be charged on February 28. You acknowledge that the timing of when you are charged and the amount charged each Billing Period may vary, including for example due to free trials and other promotional offers, gift card redemptions, credits applied, changes in your subscription, changes in your Payment Method, and changes in applicable taxes, if any, and you authorize us to charge your Payment Method for the corresponding amounts.

If we offer you a promotion (e.g., a promotional price) for your subscription, the specific terms of the promotion will be disclosed during your sign-up or in other materials provided to you describing the particular promotion. In the case of promotional pricing, after your promotion ends, we will begin billing your Payment Method for your subscription at the regular price after your promotion ends unless you cancel prior to the end of your promotion or unless otherwise disclosed in communications made available to you.

NCMA reserves the right to change the terms of your subscription, including price, from time to time, effective as of the beginning of your next Billing Period following the date of the change. If NCMA changes the subscription fee or other charges for your subscription, we will give you advance notice of these changes.

If there are special circumstances where NCMA determines it is appropriate (e.g., your access to the Services is unavailable for days due to technical difficulties), we may provide credits to affected subscribers. The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion, and the provision of credits in one instance does not entitle anyone to credits in the future under similar or different circumstances.

4.4. Gift Cards: We may make available gift cards redeemable for an eligible Service (a “Jme gift card”) and you may purchase such gift cards by using a Payment Method previously provided to us through Cleeng or another Third Party Vendor that we authorize (as the case may be). Jme gift cards may not be used in conjunction with or in addition to any special offer unless the terms of the special offer expressly indicate otherwise. The purchase and redemption of Jme gift cards are subject to the specific terms of the gift card usage, which will be disclosed in the materials at the Site when such gift cards become available to you.

4.5.Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation: Your subscription will continue in effect on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription unless and until you cancel your subscription or the account or service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. You must cancel your subscription prior to midnight Eastern Time on the day before your next renewal date in order to avoid the next billing. We will bill the periodic subscription fee plus any applicable taxes, if applicable, will be billed to the Payment Method you provide to us during registration (or to a different Payment Method if you change your account information).

If you cancel your subscription, cancellation will be effective at the end of the current Billing Period - this means that you will have continued access to your subscription for the remainder of that period, but you will not receive a credit or refund for partially used Billing Periods. You will also forfeit any service or referral credits upon cancellation, if any. You can cancel your subscription by logging into your Jme account through the Site and following the instructions on your account page on the Site, or by following the cancellation instructions on the device where you purchased the service.  

4.6.Unpaid Amounts It is important that each subscriber honor the payment obligations to which the subscriber agreed. Accordingly, NCMA or through third parties, reserve the right to retry billing your Payment Method after failed attempts (e.g., if your Payment Method is rejected). We also reserve the right to pursue any amounts you fail to pay in connection with your subscription. You will remain liable for all such amounts and all costs incurred in connection with the collection of these amounts, including, without limitation, bank overdraft fees, collection agency fees, reasonable attorneys' fees, and arbitration or court costs.

4.7. Free Trials. On occasion, we may be authorized to offer free trials for certain qualifying customers. If we offer you a free trial, the specific terms of your free trial will be stated in the material describing the particular free trial or during your sign-up. Certain limitations may exist with respect to combining free trials with any other offers. NCMA reserves the right to determine eligibility for free trials. To view the specific details regarding free trial, please access to the Site and find out more details.

Once your free trial period ends, we will begin billing your Payment Method for your periodic subscription fees (plus any applicable taxes), unless you cancel prior to the end of your free trial. For that reason, unless otherwise indicated in the free trial description, you may be asked to set up a valid Payment Method when redeeming a free trial offer.

It is very important to understand that you will not receive any notice from NCMA that your free trial has ended and that payment for your subscription is due. If you wish to avoid any charge to your Payment Method, you must cancel your subscription prior to midnight Eastern Time on the last day of your free trial period. You may cancel your subscription at any time as described in the "Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation" section of these Terms. We will continue to bill your Payment Method for your subscription on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription until you cancel or the account or applicable Service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. 

If you cancel your subscription during a free trial or while using a promotional code or other credits, cancellation may be effective immediately.

5.Accounts and Registration:

You are responsible for all use of your account, including use of your account by other members of your household. By allowing others to access your account, you agree to be responsible for ensuring that they comply with these Terms and you agree to be responsible for their activity by using the Services.

You may find information on how to delete your Jme account by logging in on the Site and viewing your account details. Please identify your account and provide a valid reply email address in the event we require additional information to terminate your account. Please note, if you are a subscriber, you must first cancel your subscription before you will be able to delete your account. Please see the section 4.5 "Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation" above the instructions on how to cancel your subscription.

We reserve the right to immediately terminate or restrict your account or your use of the Services or access to Content at any time, without notice or liability, if NCMA determines, in its sole discretion, which you have breached these Terms, violated any applicable laws, rules, or regulations, engaged in other inappropriate conducts, or for any other business reason.

If, however, this arbitration provision is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law or public policy or otherwise unenforceable, you agree to submit to personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the City, County and State of New York. At our sole option, a claim of infringement of any of NCMA’s intellectual property rights and claims for injunctive or other equitable relief may be adjudicated by a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the City, County and State of New York County.

You and we knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waive any right you or we may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation (including but not limited to any claims, counterclaims, cross-claims, or third party claims) arising in connection with these Terms of Use, the use of the Services or the Site. Further, you or we certify that none of our representatives or agents have represented, expressly or otherwise, that you or we would not in the event of such litigation, seek trial by jury.

This limitation applies regardless of the venue in which such claim is or could otherwise be asserted.

14. General Information:

14.1. Jurisdiction. Jme is intended for the customers in the U.S and Canada only. Jme makes no representation that materials or other content in the Site are appropriate or available for use outside the U.S. (for U.S residents) and/or Canada (for Canadian residents). 

14.2. International Use. We are a company based in the United States. NCMA's goal is to bring you as much Content as is legally available. That said, we are limited by the rights that our content programmers grant to us. Using technologies to access the Content from territories where NCMA does not have rights or that are not permitted by the terms of your subscription is prohibited.

14.3. Choice of Law and Forum. These Terms are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, USA, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. To the extent that the arbitration provision outlined in Section 12 is not applicable (e.g., when confirming an arbitration award), you and NCMA agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the county of New York City, State of New York.

14.4. No Waiver/Reliance. If you see other parties violating these Terms, we would appreciate it if you would let us know at https://support.jme.tv/. How NCMA responds to a party that is violating these Terms will be determined after carefully analyzing all of the facts and circumstances of a particular case. You may not rely upon NCMA's precise response with respect to one party or one situation as any indication of what NCMA might do with respect to another party or another situation, even if the parties or situations appear to you to be similar. Similarly, if we fail to act in response to a violation of these Terms, you should not assume that we do not object to the violation or even that we are aware of it. In addition, you may not construe a waiver of any provision of these Terms with respect to any party as a waiver of that provision (or any other provision) with respect to either that party or any other party. Further, NCMA's decision to delay exercising or enforcing any right or remedy under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or remedy. Even if NCMA acts in a way that appears to you to be inconsistent with these Terms, NCMA's action shall not be deemed a waiver or constructive amendment of these Terms.

14.5 Integration, Amendment, Severability, and Electronic Communications. Please note that these Terms, including Jme's Privacy Policy which is incorporated in these Terms and any end user license agreement that might accompany the applicable Service, constitute the entire legal agreement between you and NCMA and govern your use of the Services (including your use of the Content) (but excludes any services, if any, that NCMA may provide to you under a separate signed written agreement), and completely replaces any prior agreements between you and NCMA in relation to the Services.

3.5 No Spam/Unsolicited Communications. You may not use the Services to harvest information about users including for the purpose of sending, or to facilitate or encourage the sending of, unsolicited bulk or other communications.

3.6 Modification/Suspension/Discontinuation. We regularly make changes to the Services. The availability of the Content, as well as Access Points and Compatible Jme Ready Devices through which the Services are available, will change from time to time. NCMA reserves the right to replace or remove any Content and Access Points available to you through the Services.  We may change, suspend, or discontinue - temporarily or permanently - some or all of the Services (including the Content and the Compatible Jme Ready Devices through which the Services are accessed), with respect to any or all users, without notice in NCMA’s solo discretion at any time. You agree that NCMA will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services, although if you are a Jme subscriber and NCMA suspends or discontinues your subscription to the Services, NCMA may, in its sole discretion, provide you with a credit, refund, discount or other form of consideration (for example, we may credit additional days of service to your account) in accordance with Section 4 below. However, if NCMA terminates your account or suspends or discontinues your access to Services due to your violation of these Terms, then you will not be eligible for any such credit, refund, discount, or other consideration.

 

3.7 Customer Support. If you need any support or assistance while you are using our Services, we encourage you to visit our Jme support site.

 

4. Subscriptions, Free Trial, Billing, and Cancellation:

4.1 Subscriptions. While we may offer the Content for free from time to time, we charge a subscription fee to access the Services. The Services may include different Content offerings and features, with different benefits, conditions, fees, and limitations. You can find the specific details regarding your subscription and fee options at any time by logging in on the Site and viewing your account details. Because the Services are offered in multiple time zones, for consistency, a "day" for purposes of these Terms begins at 12:00 a.m. Eastern Time and ends at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time of that same calendar day.

 

4.2. Cleeng, Third Party Billing Vender.  NCMA currently uses Cleeng which specializes in mobile and web payment systems for e-commerce companies, as our third party vender, and which provides our customers with account setting and a payment gateway, along with various features including recurring billing, credit card storage, support for mobile and international payments.  NCMA reserves the right to select or change to another third party vendor at NCMA’s sole discretion.

All monetary transactions of your Jme account shall be handled and processed by Cleeng or such other third party vendor as we may select from time to time or at any time (each a “Third Party Vendor”).  In no event does NCMA assume any responsibility or liability for any monetary transactions in regard to your Jme account using a Third Party Vendor, and you hereby waive any legal or equitable rights or remedies you may have against NCMA with respect to the above.  

 

4.3 Billing. By providing a credit card or other payment methods established and authorized initially or subsequently by us ("Payment Method") for your subscription, you expressly agree that any periodic subscription fee on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription, any other fees for additional services you may purchase, with any applicable taxes, in connection with your use of your subscription to the Payment Method will be charged to your account.

PAYMENTS ARE NONREFUNDABLE AND THERE ARE NO PRORATED REFUNDS OF ANY FEES UPON ANY TERMINATION.

 

If there is any change in your credit card validity or expiration date, you may edit your Payment Method information by logging in on the Site and viewing your account details. When you provide a Payment Method to access a subscription, including in connection with a free trial offer, the Cleeng system (or other applicable Third Party Vendor system that we authorize) will attempt to verify the information you entered. This may be done by processing an authorization hold, which is a standard practice in the industry. We do not charge you in connection with this authorization hold. If your Payment Method expires and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your account, you authorize us to continue billing (directly or via a Third Party Vendor), and you will remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.

As used in these Terms, "billing" shall indicate either a charge or debit, as applicable, against your Payment Method. The subscription fee will be charged at the beginning of your subscription or expiration of your free trial period, if any, whichever is earlier, and on each periodic renewal date thereafter unless and until you cancel your subscription or the account or service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms.  Your Payment Method will be automatically charged on the calendar day corresponding to commencement of your subscription. For subscribers whose subscription starts with a free trial, billing will commence upon the expiration of the free trial. 

 

The interval of time between each payment due date shall correspond to the term of your subscription and be referred to herein as a "Billing Period." In the event that your subscription began on a day not contained in a given month, we bill your Payment Method on the last day of such month. For example, if you have a monthly subscription and became a paying subscriber on January 31, your Payment Method would next be charged on February 28. You acknowledge that the timing of when you are charged and the amount charged each Billing Period may vary, including for example due to free trials and other promotional offers, gift card redemptions, credits applied, changes in your subscription, changes in your Payment Method, and changes in applicable taxes, if any, and you authorize us to charge your Payment Method for the corresponding amounts.

 

If we offer you a promotion (e.g., a promotional price) for your subscription, the specific terms of the promotion will be disclosed during your sign-up or in other materials provided to you describing the particular promotion. In the case of promotional pricing, after your promotion ends, we will begin billing your Payment Method for your subscription at the regular price after your promotion ends unless you cancel prior to the end of your promotion or unless otherwise disclosed in communications made available to you.

 

NCMA reserves the right to change the terms of your subscription, including price, from time to time, effective as of the beginning of your next Billing Period following the date of the change. If NCMA changes the subscription fee or other charges for your subscription, we will give you advance notice of these changes. 

 

 If there are special circumstances where NCMA determines it is appropriate (e.g., your access to the Services is unavailable for days due to technical difficulties), we may provide credits to affected subscribers. The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at NCMA's sole and absolute discretion, and the provision of credits in one instance does not entitle anyone to credits in the future under similar or different circumstances.

 

4.4 Gift Cards. We may make available gift cards redeemable for an eligible Service (a “Jme gift card”) and you may purchase such gift cards by using a Payment Method previously provided to us through Cleeng or another Third Party Vendor that we authorize (as the case may be). Jme gift cards may not be used in conjunction with or in addition to any special offer unless the terms of the special offer expressly indicate otherwise. The purchase and redemption of Jme gift cards are subject to the specific terms of the gift card usage, which will be disclosed in the materials at the Site when such gift cards become available to you.

 

4.5 Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation. Your subscription will continue in effect on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription unless and until you cancel your subscription or the account or service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. You must cancel your subscription before your next renewal date in order to avoid the next billing. We will bill the periodic subscription fee plus any applicable taxes, if applicable, will be billed to the Payment Method you provide to us during registration (or to a different Payment Method if you change your account information). 

If you cancel your subscription, cancellation will be effective at the end of the current Billing Period - this means that you will have continued access to your subscription for the remainder of that period, but 

you will not receive a credit or refund for partially used Billing Periods. You will also forfeit any service or referral credits upon cancellation, if any. You can cancel your subscription by logging into your Jme account through the Site and following the instructions on your account page on the Site.

 

4.6 Unpaid Amounts. It is important that each subscriber honor the payment obligations to which the subscriber agreed. Accordingly, NCMA (directly or through third parties), reserves the right to retry billing your Payment Method after failed attempts (e.g., if your Payment Method is rejected). We also reserve the right to pursue any amounts you fail to pay in connection with your subscription. You will remain liable for all such amounts and all costs incurred in connection with the collection of these amounts, including, without limitation, bank overdraft fees, collection agency fees, reasonable attorneys' fees, and arbitration or court costs.

 

4.7 Free Trials. On occasion, we may be authorized to offer free trials for certain qualifying customers. If we offer you a free trial, the specific terms of your free trial will be stated in the material describing the particular free trial or during your sign-up. Certain limitations may exist with respect to combining free trials with any other offers. NCMA reserves the right to determine eligibility for free trials. To view the specific details regarding free trial, please access to the Site and find out more details. 

 

Once your free trial period ends, we will begin billing your Payment Method for your periodic subscription fees (plus any applicable taxes), unless you cancel prior to the end of your free trial. For that reason, unless otherwise indicated in the free trial description, you may be asked to set up a valid Payment Method when redeeming a free trial offer.

 

It is very important to understand that you will not receive any notice from NCMA that your free trial has ended and that payment for your subscription is due. If you wish to avoid any charge to your Payment Method, you must cancel your subscription prior to midnight Eastern Time on the last day of your free trial period. You may cancel your subscription at any time as described in the "Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation" section of these Terms. We will continue to bill your Payment Method for your subscription on a recurring basis corresponding to the term of your subscription until you cancel or the account or applicable Service is otherwise suspended or discontinued pursuant to these Terms. 

If you cancel your subscription during a free trial or while using a promotional code or other credits, cancellation may be effective immediately.

5.1 Account Holder. As the subscriber creating a Jme Account through Payment Method you are the registered “Account Holder”.  As Account Holder you are responsible for all use of your account, including use of your account by other members of your household.

Please see section 4.5 "Ongoing Subscription and Cancellation" above which sets forth the instructions on how to cancel your subscription.

 

We reserve the right to immediately terminate or restrict your account or your use of the Services or access to Content at any time, without notice or liability, if NCMA determines, in its sole discretion, that you have breached these Terms, violated any applicable laws, rules, or regulations, engaged in other inappropriate conducts, or for any other business reason. We also reserve the right to terminate your account or your use of the Services or access to Content if such use places an undue burden on our networks or servers. 

 

5.2 Account Profiles. NCMA may offer, in its sole discretion, from time to time, the option to personalize the use of the Services through the creation of one or more profiles under one account. Only the Account Holder may create a profile, if such a feature is available to you, unless we otherwise agree in writing.

We will make every reasonable effort to resolve any issues or disagreements that you have with us. If those efforts fail, you agree that any claim, dispute, or controversy you may have against us arising out of, relating to, or connected in any way with this Agreement, these Terms of Use or the Site shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and conducted before a single arbitrator pursuant to the applicable Rules and Procedures established by AAA ("Rules and Procedures"). You agree further that: (1) the arbitration shall be held in New York City, New York County; (2) the arbitrator shall apply New York law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; (3) there shall be no authority for any claims to be arbitrated on a class or representative basis; (4) arbitration can decide only the individual claim you have against us; (5) and the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures established by AAA, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal, or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, this arbitration provision is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be contrary to law or public policy or otherwise unenforceable, you agree to submit to personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the City, County and State of New York. At our sole option, a claim of infringement of any of NCMA’s intellectual property rights and claims for injunctive or other equitable relief may be adjudicated by a state or federal court of competent jurisdiction located in the City, County and State of New York County. Each Party shall pay its own legal and arbitration fees and other expenses regardless of the outcome of any mediation, arbitration, or litigation.

You and we knowingly, voluntarily, and intentionally waive any right you or we may have to a trial by jury in respect of any litigation (including but not limited to any claims, counterclaims, cross-claims, or third party claims) arising in connection with these Terms of Use, the use of the Services or the Site. Further, you or we certify that none of our representatives or agents have represented, expressly or otherwise, that you or we would not in the event of such litigation, seek trial by jury.

 

13. Limitation on Time to Bring a Claim:

To help resolve any issues between us promptly, you and NCMA agree to bring any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, our relationship, or the use of the Services within one year after a claim arises; otherwise, the claim is waived. This limitation applies regardless of the venue in which such claim is or could otherwise be asserted.

 

14. General Information:

14.1 Jurisdiction. Jme and the related Services are intended only for customers in the U.S. and Canada. NCMA makes no representation, warranty, covenant, or assurances that materials or other content in the Site are appropriate or available for use outside the U.S. (for U.S residents) and/or Canada (for Canadian residents).  

 

14.2 International Use. We are a company based in the United States. NCMA's goal is to bring you as much Content as is legally available.

14.3 Choice of Law and Forum. These Terms are governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, USA, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. To the extent that the arbitration provision in Section 12 is not applicable (e.g., when confirming an arbitration award), you and NCMA agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the county of New York City, State of New York.

 

14.4 No Waiver/Reliance. If you see other parties violating these Terms, we would appreciate it if you would let us know through at https://support.jme.tv/. How NCMA responds to a party that is violating these Terms will be determined after carefully analyzing all of the facts and circumstances of a particular case. You may not rely upon NCMA's precise response with respect to one party or one situation as any indication of what NCMA might do with respect to another party or another situation, even if the parties or situations appear to you to be similar. Similarly, if we fail to act in response to a violation of these Terms, you should not assume that we do not object to the violation or even that we are aware of it. In addition, you may not construe a waiver of any provision of these Terms with respect to any party as a waiver of that provision (or any other provision) with respect to either that party or any other party. Further, NCMA's decision to delay exercising or enforcing any right or remedy under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or remedy. Even if NCMA acts in a way that appears to you to be inconsistent with these Terms, NCMA's action shall not be deemed a waiver or constructive amendment of these Terms.

 

14.5 Integration, Amendment, Severability, and Electronic Communications. Please note that these Terms, including any end user license agreement that might accompany the applicable Service, constitute the entire legal agreement between you and NCMA and govern your use of the Services (including your use of the Content) (but excludes any services, if any, that NCMA may provide to you under a separate signed written agreement), and completely replaces any prior agreements between you and NCMA in relation to the Services. These Terms operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. If any provision of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, you and we agree that the provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

From time to time, we may communicate with you about the Services and these Terms electronically (e.g., emails to your registered email address, notices on the Jme Site and other Access Points). You consent to receive electronic communications from NCMA and further agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, and other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any applicable legal notification requirements. We recommend that you keep a copy of any electronic communications we send to you for your records. 

 

Our goal is to provide our subscribers with high quality services and entertainments, so if you have any questions or comments regarding these Terms, please contact us through https://support.jme.tv/.
