Last updated March 21, 2024

The following Terms of Use (these “Terms”) apply to your use of any website (including www.kilz.com), app or device (including any online service relating to any device) operated or sold by or for Masterchem Industries LLC (“Company”) that displays or links to, or that you otherwise agree will be subject to, these Terms, together with any Content (as hereinafter defined), Software (as hereinafter defined), materials and services available on or for use in connection therewith any such website, app, or device, and any new, enhanced or updated version thereof or successor thereto, (collectively a “Service”). Use of any website, app, or device includes accessing, browsing, or registering to any website, app, or device. Please read these Terms carefully! By using any Service, you are agreeing to be bound by these Terms. You may not use any Service if you do not agree to these Terms.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, as used in these Terms, (i) “Masterchem Industries LLC,” “Company,” “us,” “we” and “our” refer to Masterchem Industries LLC, (ii) “Content” refers to any or all text, documents, photographs, images, graphics, logos, emblems, designs, layouts, trademarks, trade names, service marks, copyrighted materials, audio and video presentations and other information and materials provided by us on, through or in connection with any Service, including user interfaces and the selection, coordination and arrangement of such information and/or materials, and (iii) “Software” refers to any software made available to you for downloading through or in connection with any Service.

By using any Service, you confirm that you accept these Terms of Use and that you agree to comply with them. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you must not use any Service.

YOU AFFIRM THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO THESE TERMS.

THESE TERMS CONTAIN A CLASS ACTION WAIVER AS WELL AS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT, AS FURTHER SET FORTH IN THE “GOVERNING LAW; AND ARBITRATION” SECTION BELOW, REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR ANY OTHER COURT PROCEEDINGS, OR CLASS ACTIONS OF ANY KIND. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND THAT YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY IN ANY FORUM, AS DESCRIBED IN MORE DETAIL BELOW. YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION AND/OR THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER, AS EXPLAINED BELOW.

Service Specific Terms

You may be required to accept other or additional terms in connection with your use of any Service (including any Content or Software) (“Additional Service-Specific Terms”). In that event, such Additional Service-Specific Terms shall be deemed to be incorporated into and be a part of these Terms solely for purposes of such Service. In the event of any inconsistency between any provision of these Terms and any provision of any Additional Service-Specific Terms, the provision in the Additional Service-Specific Terms shall control with respect to such Service only.

Changes to the Service or these Terms

We may change or discontinue any Service at any time without prior notice or obligation to you or charge, modify, or waive any fees required to use any Service. Also, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we may change these Terms at any time by notifying you of such changes by any reasonable means. We will make reasonable efforts to provide notice to you before the change takes effect so you can discontinue using any Service if you do not want to be bound by the changed Terms. (The means of providing such notice may vary depending on the type of Service you use. For example, if a Service you use is a Company website (a “Website”), notice may be accomplished by posting the notice on such Website, and acceptance of any proposed change may be deemed to occur if you continue to use such Website.). The latest Terms will apply to any dispute or issue arising after the Terms have been updated to the extent permitted by applicable law.

Your submission of information through any Service is governed by our Privacy Policy, located at PRIVACY POLICY (the “Privacy Policy”).

Forums; Submissions; and Public Communication

Services may enable users to make available certain materials or content (each, a “Submission”), through or in connection with such Services, including any interactive services, such as in a chat area, message board or other forum, or through chatting, commenting or e-mail functions or other messaging functionality (each, a “Forum”). Any Forum is intended to enable you to share comments about Products (as defined below). If you participate in a Forum, any information you disclose in a Submission may be publicly available, and you should exercise caution in deciding whether to disclose any personal, financial or other sensitive information there. If you choose to make any of your personally identifiable or other information publicly available through any Service, including through a forum, you do so at your own risk. Please note that the views expressed in Submissions are the opinions of those users and do not represent the views, opinions, beliefs, or values of Company or any of its affiliates.

For purposes of clarity, you retain ownership of your Submissions. For each Submission, your hereby grant to us and our designees a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid-up, transferable, sublicenseable (through multiple tiers), assignable, perpetual, irrevocable right and license to create derivative works based upon or improvements of such Submissions and to reproduce, display and perform (publicly or otherwise), distribute, transmit, make, have made, sell, offer for sale, import and otherwise use, analyze, commercialize and exploit such Submission, derivative work or improvement in any way for any purpose, or incorporate such Submission, derivative work or improvement into any format or media now known or later developed, for any purpose whatsoever, including for commercial or promotional purposes, without additional compensation to you or any third party.

You further irrevocably waive any “moral rights” or other rights with respect to attribution of authorship or integrity of materials regarding all Submissions that you may have under any applicable law under any legal theory.

Company cannot prevent other persons who access any Service from using Submissions and personal information they find here, even if their use of that information violates the law, or your personal privacy or safety. None of the Submissions will be subject to any obligation, whether of confidentiality, attribution or otherwise, on our part and we will not be liable for any use or disclosure of any Submissions.

When participating in a Forum, you should not assume that people are who they say they are, know what they say they know or are affiliated with whom they say they are affiliated with. Information obtained in a Forum may not be reliable, and it is not a good idea to trade or make any investment decision based solely or largely on information you cannot confirm. We cannot be responsible for the content or accuracy of any information and shall not be responsible for any trading or investment decisions made based on such information.

We may and expressly reserve the right, but have no obligation, to monitor, scan, intercept, review, analyze, store, alter or remove any Submissions or any other messages, information, content or other materials sent to you, or received by you, in connection with any Service or the Forums or its or their features or functionalities, at any time, including while it is in transit, and before and after it is stored or made available through any Service, and to monitor, review or analyze your access to or use of any such Submissions or other messages, information, content or other materials, in each case by manual, automated or other means, and in each case for any purpose, including such purposes as may be described in the Privacy Policy. You acknowledge and agree that we have the right to disclose such information, the circumstances surrounding its transmission, and the identity of the poster to any third party for any reason or purpose.

A testimonial board post or other Submission is not an effective way to tell us you need help with an order or Service feature. If you’d like to tell us about a specific problem, please send an e-mail or call us using the contact information available here. Company disclaims liability for any failure on its part to provide help with a specific problem disclosed on any Forum.

Any sweepstakes, contests, surveys, games or similar promotions (collectively, “Promotions”) made available through a Service may be governed by specific rules that are separate from these Terms. By participating in any Promotions you will become subject to any such rules. We urge you to read any applicable rules, which will be linked from the particular activity, and to review our Privacy Policy (which can be found at PRIVACY POLICY which, in addition to these Terms, governs any information you submit in connection with such Promotions.

The Services may offer, describe, provide information related to, or otherwise refer to goods or services (collectively, “Products”) and may provide links to offers, descriptions, or other information related to Products. Such Products may be made available by us or by third parties, and may be made available for any purpose, including general informational purposes. We may make available the ability to purchase or otherwise obtain certain Products through a Service (a “Purchase”).

You agree to pay all charges incurred by you or any users of your account and credit card (or other applicable payment mechanism) at the price(s) in effect when such charges are incurred, including all shipping and handling charges. You will also be responsible for paying any applicable taxes relating to your Purchases. Descriptions or images of, or references to, Products on a Service do not imply Company’s endorsement of such Products; provided that Company may elect to expressly endorse Products. We reserve the right, including without prior notification, to change such descriptions, images or references, to limit the order quantity on any Product and/or to refuse service to you. Verification of information applicable to a Purchase may be required prior to Company’s acceptance of any order. We make no representations as to the completeness, accuracy, reliability, validity or timeliness of any Product listings, descriptions or images (including any features, specifications and prices contained therein). Such information and the price and availability of any Product (including the validity of any coupon or discount) are subject to change without notice. If you have any questions or complaints regarding your order, or if you would like further information, please contact Customer Service at the contact information set forth here.

The inclusion of a description of, or of an offer to sell or otherwise provide, any Products on any Website or otherwise in connection with any Service at any particular time does not imply or warrant that those Products will be available at any time. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we may, for marketing research or other purposes, present offers on the Websites or otherwise for Products that are not then available and that may not ever be made available by us for purchase.

We make reasonable efforts to accurately display the attributes of Products, including the applicable colors; however, the actual color you see will depend on your computer system, and we cannot guarantee that your computer will accurately display such colors. Weights, measures and descriptions are approximate and for convenience only. It is your responsibility to ascertain and obey all applicable local, state, federal and international laws (including minimum age requirements) in regard to the possession, use and sale of any item purchased from a Service. By placing an order, you represent that the Products ordered will be used only in a lawful manner. Company reserves the right, with or without prior notice, to limit the available quantity of or discontinue any Product; to honor, or impose conditions on the honoring of, any coupon, coupon code, promotional code, discount or other similar promotions; to bar any user from making any or all Purchase(s); and/or to refuse to provide any user with any Product. Refunds and exchanges will be subject to Company’s applicable refund and exchange policies then in effect. When an order is placed, it will be shipped to an address designated by the purchaser as long as that shipping address is complete and compliant with any applicable shipping restrictions and located in a jurisdiction where Company, in its sole discretion, permits shipment of the ordered Product(s).

Governing Law; and Arbitration

Governing Law. These Terms, including the agreement to arbitrate below, are governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the Federal Arbitration Act, United States Code Title 9, and, to the extent consistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York and the United States of America applicable to contracts entered into and performed in New York by residents thereof.

Scope of the Arbitration Agreement. EXCEPT AS SET FORTH BELOW IN THE "EXCEPTIONS” PROVISION, ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR ANY ASPECT OF THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND COMPANY, INCLUDING ANY DISPUTES THAT ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO ANY SERVICE, PRODUCT, CONTENT OR SOFTWARE, WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF IN A COURT BY A JUDGE OR JURY. COMPANY AND YOU ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY. “DISPUTE” WILL BE GIVEN THE BROADEST POSSIBLE MEANING ALLOWABLE UNDER LAW. VENDORS, INCLUDING SOFTWARE VENDORS, AND ALL OTHER INDEMNIFIED PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) AND AFFILIATED PARTIES ARE INTENDED BENEFICIARIES OF THIS BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE COVERS AND INCLUDES THRESHOLD QUESTIONS OF ARBITRABILITY. THE ARBITRATOR, AND NOT ANY FEDERAL, STATE, OR LOCAL COURT OR AGENCY, SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE AUTHORITY TO RESOLVE ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE FORMATION, EXISTENCE, SCOPE, VALIDITY, INTERPRETATION, APPLICABILITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, OR ANY PART OF IT, OR OF THESE TERMS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIM THAT ALL OR ANY PART OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE OR THE TERMS OF USE IS VOID OR VOIDABLE. IF ANY PARTY DISAGREES ABOUT WHETHER THE FOREGOING PROVISION (OR ANY PORTION OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION THE PROVISIONS RELATING TO ARBITRATION) CAN BE ENFORCED OR WHETHER IT APPLIES TO THE DISPUTE, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR WILL DECIDE THAT DISPUTE. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, HOWEVER, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY ISSUE CONCERNING THE VALIDITY OF THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER AND BATCH ARBITRATION PROVISIONS BELOW MUST BE DECIDED BY A COURT, AND AN ARBITRATOR DOES NOT HAVE AUTHORITY TO CONSIDER THE VALIDITY OF THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER OR BATCH ARBITRATION PROVISIONS.

AS SET FORTH IN MORE DETAIL BELOW, YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHERE A PERSON BRINGS A CLAIM AS A REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PERSON OR PERSONS.

Exceptions. Notwithstanding your and our agreement to arbitrate Disputes, you and we agree that the following Disputes will be resolved in court, unless both you and we agree to submit the Dispute to arbitration pursuant to the binding arbitration agreement:

(A) Disputes or claims within the jurisdiction of small claims court, as long as it is brought and maintained as an individual dispute and not as a class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding;

(B) Disputes or claims where the sole form of relief is injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights;

(D) Disputes or claims where the sole form of relief is injunctive relief, including seeking public injunctive relief in an individual capacity to the extent otherwise permitted by law.

Any litigation in court of the foregoing types of Disputes (except for small claims court actions) may be commenced only in a federal or state court located in Orange County, CA, and you and Company each consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. Regardless of whether the foregoing types of Disputes in this paragraph are resolved by a court or pursuant to arbitration, you and Company agree that the Dispute is subject to the class action waiver provision set forth below.

You and Company also agree that for Disputes or claims where both injunctive relief (including public injunctive relief) and non-injunctive relief are sought, you and Company will first submit the Dispute or claim for non-injunctive relief to arbitration pursuant to this Governing Law; and Arbitration section. The arbitrator will not be permitted to grant injunctive relief (unless the parties mutually agree otherwise). Once the arbitration of the Dispute or claim for non-injunctive relief has concluded, you and/or Company may seek the injunctive relief (including the public injunctive relief) in court to the extent permitted by law.

Informal Dispute Resolution. We want to address your concerns without the need for a formal legal dispute. Before filing a claim against us, you agree to try to resolve any actual or potential dispute informally by contacting us at Masco Corporation, ATTN: General Counsel, 17450 College Parkway, Livonia, Michigan 48152 to notify us of the actual or potential dispute. Similarly, we will undertake reasonable efforts to contact you to notify you of any actual or potential dispute to resolve any claim we may possess informally before taking any formal action. The party that provides the notice of the actual or potential dispute (the “Notifying Party”) will include in that notice (a “Notice of Dispute”) your name (to the extent known), the Notifying Party’s contact information for any communications relating to such dispute (including for the Notifying Party’s legal counsel if it is represented by counsel in connection with such dispute), and sufficient details regarding such dispute to enable the other party (the “Notified Party”) to understand the basis of and evaluate the concerns raised. If the Notified Party responds within ten (10) business days after receiving the Notice of Dispute that it is ready and willing to engage in good faith discussions in an effort to resolve the dispute informally, then each party shall promptly participate in such discussions in good faith.

If, notwithstanding the Notifying Party’s compliance with all of its obligations under the preceding paragraph, a dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days after the Notice of Dispute is sent (or if the Notified Party fails to respond to the Notice of Dispute within ten (10) business days), the Notifying Party may initiate an arbitration proceeding as described below. If either party purports to initiate arbitration without first providing a Notice of Dispute and otherwise complying with all of its obligations under the preceding paragraph, then, notwithstanding any other provision of these Terms, the arbitrator will promptly dismiss the claim with prejudice and will award the other party all of its costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in connection with such dispute.

How Arbitration Works. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, as amended by these Terms. The Consumer Arbitration Rules are available here, or you may check the AAA’s website (www.adr.org) to search for the latest Terms. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision will follow the terms of these Terms and will be final and binding. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in these Terms will preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state or local agencies, and if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator costs and expenses shall be in accordance with the AAA Rules, or in accordance with countervailing law if contrary to the AAA Rules, except that if you demonstrate that any such costs and expenses owed by you under those rules would be prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding, Company will pay the amount of any such costs and expenses that the arbitrator determines are necessary to prevent the arbitration from being prohibitively more expensive than a court proceeding (subject to possible reimbursement as set forth below). Each party, however, is responsible for his, her, their, or its own attorneys’ fees and expenses, and Company will not pay your attorneys’ fees or expenses except to the extent ordered to do so by the arbitrator. If you prevail in arbitration, however, you will be entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent allowed for under applicable law and ordered by the arbitrator. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), you agree to reimburse Company for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by the Company that you otherwise would have been obligated to pay under the AAA Rules. In determining whether an action is frivolous, the arbitrator may consider whether Company has offered you a full refund of the sum you paid for items you purchased from Company or has otherwise offered full relief to you in relation to your individual claim. If the arbitrator, upon final disposition of the case, finds your dispute was not frivolous, Company will reimburse any filing fees that you paid and were not otherwise reimbursed. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction.

Class Action Waiver. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDING TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY WILL BE BROUGHT AND CONDUCTED ONLY IN THE RESPECTIVE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS PART OF ANY CLASS OR PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, MULTIPLE-PLAINTIFF, PRIVATE ATTOREY GENERAL, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING (“CLASS ACTION”), AND ANY AND ALL SUCH RIGHTS ARE HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVED. Without limiting the foregoing, any challenge to the validity of this paragraph shall be determined exclusively by a court of competent jurisdiction. For the avoidance of doubt, however, you can seek public injunctive relief to the extent authorized by law and consistent with the Exceptions clause above.

IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR FOUND UNENFORCEABLE, THEN, UNLESS THE PARTIES MUTUALLY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL BE NULL AND VOID WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING SO LONG AS THE PROCEEDING IS PERMITTED TO PROCEED AS A CLASS ACTION. If a court decides that the limitations of this paragraph are deemed invalid or unenforceable, any putative class, private attorney general, or consolidated or representative action must be brought in a court of proper jurisdiction and not in arbitration.

Batch Arbitration. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in the foregoing or in the applicable AAA rules, and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the parties agree that, in the event there are twenty-five (25) or more individual arbitration demands filed within a ninety (90) day period relating to the same or similar facts and asserting the same or similar claims for relief, brought by claimants represented by the same counsel or counsel coordinating with one another, the following rules shall apply:

AAA shall administer the arbitration demands in batches of 25 demands per batch (or as close as possible to 25, where there are fewer than 25 demands to fill a batch).
For each such batch, AAA shall appoint a single arbitrator and resolve the batch as a single consolidated arbitration, with one set of filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees due per batch (with the same fee schedule being applied to the entire batch as would ordinarily apply to a single arbitration).
Batches may be arbitrated concurrently. Arbitration awards in one batch shall have no precedential effect on subsequently administered batches.
The parties shall cooperate with one another and with AAA to implement this batch arbitration process in good faith, in the interests of minimizing the costs of arbitration.

Any challenge by a party to the applicability, validity, or enforceability of this Batch Arbitration provision shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. In the event that this Batch Arbitration provision is found to be invalid or unenforceable, or in the event that the AAA declines to implement this Batch Arbitration provision for any reason, the entire arbitration agreement shall be of no force and effect when there are twenty-five (25) or more individual arbitration demands filed within a ninety (90) day period relating to the same or similar facts and asserting the same or similar claims for relief, brought by claimants represented by the same counsel or counsel coordinating with one another. The Class Action Waiver, however, will still apply to the extent permitted by law.

Opt Out Provision. To opt out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions and/or the Class Action Waiver set forth in these Terms, you must send written notice of your decision to opt out to: Masco Corporation, ATTN: General Counsel, 17450 College Parkway, Livonia, Michigan 48152. The notice must be sent to the foregoing address within 30 days of your first agreeing to these Terms. Your written notification must include your name and address, as well as a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with Company or the other Affiliated Parties through arbitration and/or that you do not agree to the class action waiver. If you do not opt out, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes on an individual basis in accordance with the provisions of this section. If you opt out of only the arbitration provisions, and not also the Class Action Waiver, the Class Action Waiver still applies. You may not opt out of only the Class Action Waiver, but not the other arbitration provisions. If you opt out of the arbitration and/or the class action waiver, Company also will not be bound by them.

As set forth in the “Changes to the Service or these Terms” section, we will provide notice of any material changes to this binding arbitration agreement and/or Class Action Waiver (which may be satisfied by updating these Terms, unless not otherwise permitted by law), in which case you will have the right to opt out of the arbitration provisions and/or Class Action Waiver within 30 days after such change, consistent with the terms above.

Other Terms. This agreement to arbitrate shall survive the termination or expiration of these Terms. With the exception of the Class Action Waiver and Batch Arbitration provisions (as set forth above), if a court decides that any part of this agreement to arbitrate is invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of this agreement to arbitrate shall nevertheless remain valid and in force.

Termination

These Terms are effective until terminated by Company. Company, in its sole discretion, may terminate or suspend your access to or use of any Services, at any time and for any reason, including if Company believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms. Upon any such termination or suspension, your right to use the Services will immediately cease, and you will promptly destroy all copies in your possession or control of any Content or Software (including any backup copies thereof). You agree that any termination or suspension of your access to or use of any Services may be affected without prior notice, and that, upon such termination or suspension, Company may immediately deactivate or delete your password and user name, and all related information and files associated with it, and/or bar any further access to such information or files. You agree that Company and the other Affiliated Entities shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination or suspension of your use of or access to the Services or to any such information or files, and shall not be required to make such information or files available to you after any such termination or suspension. The “Service-Specific Terms,” “Information Submitted Through the Services,” “Intellectual Property,” “Registration,” “Prohibited Uses”; “Forums; Submissions and Public Communication,” “Making Purchases,” “Disclaimer of Warranties,” “Third-Party Materials; and Links from any Services,” “Links to Website,” “Limitation of Liability,” “Governing Law; and Arbitration,” “Termination,” “Violations, Waivers, and Indemnity,” “Claims of Copyright Infringement,” “Jurisdictional Issues,” “Feedback; and Questions,” “Important Note to New Jersey Consumers” and “Miscellaneous” sections will survive any termination of these Terms.

Violations, Waivers, and Indemnity

We reserve the right to seek all remedies available at law and in equity for violations of these Terms, including termination, suspension or blocking of your access to the Services. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such provision or of our legal or equitable rights. Further, no waiver of any rights under this Agreement shall be effective unless it is made in a writing signed by the party charged therewith, and any such waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose stated in such writing. To the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless us and the Affiliated Entities, as well as each of their third-party information providers, licensors, contractors, and any other persons or entities involved in the delivery of Products, Services, or information through the website, app, or Device or acting by, through, under, or in concert with any of them, whether in the past, present, or future (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all damages, claims, liabilities, judgments, losses, awards, costs, expenses and fees (including attorneys’ fees), arising out of or related to (i) your violation or alleged violation of these Terms; or (ii) any allegation that any materials you submit or transmit to us or otherwise via any Service (including any Submissions) infringe or otherwise violate the copyright, trademark, trade secret or other intellectual property or other rights of any third party. You will also indemnify and hold the Indemnified Entities harmless from and against any claims brought by third parties arising out of your use of the information accessed through any Service.

Claims of Copyright Infringement

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law.

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed by someone against you, the DMCA permits you to send Company a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www. copyright.gov/ for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Services should be sent to Corporate IP Counsel as follow: By mail to Masco Corporation, 17450 College Parkway, Livonia, Michigan 48152; and by e-mail to DMCA_Notice@mascohq.com.
