SUBMISSIONS


We are pleased to hear from our Members and welcome your comments regarding Disney's Blast and other Disney services and products. Unfortunately, however, Disney's company policy does not allow us to accept or consider creative ideas, suggestions, or materials other than those we have specifically requested. We hope you will understand that it is the intent of this policy to avoid the possibility of future misunderstandings when projects developed by our professional staff might seem to others to be similar to their own creative work. Accordingly, we ask that you do not send us any original creative materials such as stories or character ideas, screenplays, or original artwork unless we have specifically requested that you do so. While we do value your feedback on our Service and products, we request that you be specific in your comments, and not submit any creative ideas, suggestions, or materials.

If at our request you send certain specific submissions (e.g., contests) or, despite our request that you not send us any other creative materials, you send us creative suggestions, ideas, notes, drawings, concepts, or other information (collectively, the "Submissions"), the Submissions shall be deemed, and shall remain, the property of Disney. None of the Submissions shall be subject to any obligation of confidence on the part of Disney, and Disney shall not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submissions. Without limitation of the foregoing, Disney shall exclusively own all now known or hereafter existing rights to the Submissions of every kind and nature throughout the universe and shall be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submissions for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise, without compensation to the provider of the Submissions.

Disney cannot ensure that you will be satisfied with any products or services that you purchase from a third-party site that links to or from Disney's Blast, since other shop channels are owned and operated by independent retailers.

Disney does not make any representations or warranties as to the security of any information including, without limitation, credit card and other personal information you might be requested to give any third party and you hereby irrevocably waive any claim against us with respect to such sites.

IN NO EVENT SHALL DISNEY'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU, IF ANY, FOR ACCESSING THE SERVICE.

SECURITY

As part of the registration process, each Member, including every person with a family member subaccount, will select a password and Member Name ("Member Name"). You shall provide Disney with accurate, complete, and updated Account information. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Agreement, which may result in immediate termination of your Account and/or your family member Account. You may not (i) select or use a Member Name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person; (ii) use a name subject to the rights of any other person without authorization; or (iii) use a Member Name that Disney, in its sole discretion, deems inappropriate or offensive.

You shall notify Disney at contact@disneyblast.com of any known or suspected unauthorized use(s) of your Account, or any known or suspected breach of security, including loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of your password. You shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password.

Each Parent Account must be 18 years or older to establish an Account; however, you may also establish subaccounts for family members of all ages, and each such Account shall be governed by the terms of this Agreement. If Disney becomes aware that a Parent Account is under the age of 18, Disney reserves the right to cancel the Account. Any fraudulent, abusive, or otherwise illegal activity may be grounds for termination of your Account, at Disney's sole discretion, and you may be reported to appropriate law-enforcement agencies.

If you have reason to believe that your Account is no longer secure (for example, in the event of a loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure or use of your Member Name, password, or any credit, debit, or charge card number stored on the Service), you must promptly change your password and notify Disney of the problem (by notice given as described in the Notice section below) to avoid possible liability for any unauthorized charges to your Account.

PRICE AND PAYMENT


Disney reserves the right at any time to charge additional fees for access to the Service. Disney reserves the right to change the amount of, or basis for determining, any fees or charges for the Service, and to institute new fees or charges effective upon prior notice to Members. Disney reserves the right to offer special offers of the Service and to provide the Service at no charge for promotional reasons or otherwise (such as a free trial).

Each Parent Account agrees to pay all charges to the Parent‘s Account, including applicable taxes, in accordance with billing terms in effect at the time the fee or charge becomes payable. For standard accounts purchased through the Disney’s Blast Web site* , Parent Accounts must provide Disney with valid credit card and/or other information required during the registration process. Disney shall charge the Parent Account's credit card either after the trial period expires, or on the date the Parent Account subscribes to the Service. Thereafter, Disney will automatically renew and charge and/or bill the Parent's Account as follows:

• Upon every one (1) month anniversary of the first billing date for the following month's service for monthly subscriptions
• Upon every one (1) year anniversary of the first billing date for annual subscriptions

The renewal fee shall be equal to or less than the original subscription price, unless otherwise notified in advance by Disney. You may notify Disney that you wish to cancel your subscription at any time.
__________________

*"Standard Accounts" are accounts purchased through the Disney's Blast Web site and do not include special offers, which at the time the special offer is made, will specify the price and payment terms that apply to the special offer. Additionally, if you purchased or otherwise received Disney's Blast through your Internet service provider ("ISP"), this section titled Price and Payment may not apply to you. Please see the member agreement that is accessible when you access Disney's Blast from your ISP.


Disney agrees that it will terminate your Account upon receipt of notification from the Parent Account on your Account, as described below.

• For monthly subscriptions: If notice of cancellation is received within the first 15 days following the first day of the initial billing, you will be eligible to receive a refund of all subscription fees for the Service, but will still be obligated to pay any other charges incurred. If you cancel the Service more than 15 days after the initial billing, your Account will be canceled as of the end of the current billing period and no refund for unused time will be given.

• For annual subscriptions: If notice of cancellation is received within the first 30 days following the first day of initial billing, you will be eligible to receive a refund of all subscription fees for the Service but will still be obligated to pay any other charges incurred. If you cancel the Service more than 30 days after the initial billing, no refund for unused time will be given.

Your right to use the Service is subject to any limits established by Disney or by your credit card issuer. If payment cannot be charged to your credit card or your charge is returned to Disney for any reason, including chargeback, Disney reserves the right to either suspend or terminate your access and Account, thereby terminating this Agreement and all obligations of Disney hereunder. If you have a balance due on any Disney Account, you agree that Disney can charge these unpaid fees to your credit card. Disney reserves the right to establish a credit limit (the "Ceiling") for each Member. If a Member's Account reaches the Ceiling at any time, Disney may immediately bill the Member's credit card for all unpaid charges on account. Until further notice, the Ceiling for each Member is $100.
