This Agreement was last revised on November 27th, 2016.

Welcome to ReadLit.com (also ReadLiterature.com, TalkLiterature.com, ReadLitMore.com and vi-Read.com), the website and online service of ReadLit (“ReadLit,” “ReadLiterature,” “we” or “us”). This page explains the terms by which you may use our service. By accessing or using the ReadLit services, website and software provided through or in connection with the service (“Service”), you signify that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Terms of Use Agreement (“Agreement”), whether or not you are a registered user of our Service.  We reserve the right to amend this Agreement at any time and without notice. If we do this, we will post the amended Agreement on this page and indicate at the top of the page the date the Agreement was last revised. Your continued use of the Service after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use. If you do not agree to any of these terms or any future Terms of Use, do not use or access (or continue to access) the Service. This Agreement applies to all visitors, users, and others who access the Service (“Users”).

  1. Use of Our Service

ReadLit provides a place for you to discover, track, share and talk about books and book-related news, artwork, images and videos with a community of other interested members. ReadLit also allows you to play book-related games and test your literary knowledge with a variety of quizzes and trivias. ReadLit may, from time to time sell merchandise, hold competitions or distribute prizes. You do not have to register in order to visit ReadLit. To access certain features of the Service, though, posting book reviews, images and videos, and commenting on other members’ reviews, you will need to register with ReadLit and create a “Member” account. Your account gives you access to the services and functionality that we may establish and maintain from time to time and in our sole discretion. You may never use another Member’s account without permission. When creating your account, you must provide accurate and complete information. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs on your account, and you must keep your account password secure. You must notify ReadLit immediately of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account. Although ReadLit will not be liable for your losses caused by any unauthorized use of your account, you shall be liable for the losses of ReadLit or others due to such unauthorized use. You may change the settings on your Account Settings page to control your Member Profile and how other members communicate with you. By providing ReadLit your e-mail address you consent to our using the e-mail address to send you Service-related notices, including any notices required by law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. You may not opt out of Service-related e-mails. We may also use your e-mail address to send you other messages, including changes to features of the Service and special offers. If you do not want to receive such e-mail messages, you may opt out by changing the preferences in your account settings. Opting out will prevent you from receiving e-mail messages regarding updates, improvements, or offers. Subject to the terms and conditions of this agreement, ReadLit grants you permission to use the Service for your personal, non-commercial purposes only. You agree not to engage in any of the following prohibited activities: (i) copying, distributing, or disclosing any part of the Service in any medium, including without limitation by any automated or non-automated “scraping”; (ii) using any automated system, including without limitation “robots,” “spiders,” “offline readers,” etc., to access the Service in a manner that sends more request messages to the ReadLit servers than a human can reasonably produce in the same period of time by using a conventional on-line web browser; (iii) attempting to interfere with, compromise the system integrity or security or decipher any transmissions to or from the servers running the Service; (iv) taking any action that imposes, or may impose at our sole discretion an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure; (v) uploading invalid data, viruses, worms, or other software agents through the Service; (vi) collecting or harvesting any personally identifiable information, including account names and e-mail addresses, from the Service; (vii) using the Service for any commercial solicitation purposes; (viii) using any information obtained from the Service in order to harass, abuse, or harm another person, or in order to contact, advertise to, solicit, or sell to any Member without their prior explicit consent, (ix) impersonating another person or otherwise misrepresenting your affiliation with a person or entity, conducting fraud, hiding or attempting to hide your identity; (x) interfering with the proper working of the Service; or, (xi) bypassing the measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Service. In order to protect our Members from unsolicited advertising or solicitation, ReadLit reserves the right to restrict the number of communications which a Member may send to other Members in any 24-hour period to a number that ReadLit deems appropriate in its sole discretion. ReadLit may permanently or temporarily terminate, suspend, or otherwise refuse to permit your access to the Service without notice and liability for any reason, including if in ReadLit’s sole determination you violate any provision of this Agreement, or for no reason. Upon termination for any reason or no reason, you continue to be bound by this Agreement.  The Service is subject to scheduled and unscheduled service interruptions. All aspects of the Service are subject to change or elimination at ReadLit’s sole discretion.

Unless otherwise explicitly stated, all materials found on the Service are solely directed to individuals, companies, or other entities located in Canada.

  1. Assignment

This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by ReadLit without restriction.

  1. General

A. Governing Law. You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Ontario; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over ReadLit, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Ontario. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the Province of Ontario, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. Any claim or dispute between you and ReadLit that arises in whole or in part from the Service shall be decided exclusively by a court of competent jurisdiction located in the City of Ottawa, in the Province of Ontario, unless submitted to arbitration as set forth in the following paragraph.

B. Arbitration. For any claim (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) under this Agreement where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, the party requesting relief may elect to resolve the dispute through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. The party electing such arbitration shall initiate the arbitration through an established alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”) provider mutually agreed upon by the parties. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: a) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, as selected by the party initiating the arbitration; b) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and c) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Applicable Law and Disputes

(Not applicable to Quebec consumers) Any dispute or claim relating in any way to your use of any ReadLit Service, or to any products or services sold or distributed by ReadLit or through ReadLit Services will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify. The Ontario Arbitration Act and Ontario arbitration law apply to this agreement.

There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the terms of these Conditions of Use as a court would.

To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our law department:

ReadLit Law Department
PO Box 62020 Convent Glen
Orleans, ON
K1C 2S0
Canada

The arbitration will be conducted by the Canadian Arbitration Association (CAA) under its rules. The CAA’s rules are available at www.canadianarbitrationassociation.ca or by calling 1-800-856-5154. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the CAA’s rules. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.

We each agree that any dispute resolution proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. We also both agree that you or we may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.

(Not applicable to Quebec consumers) By using any ReadLit Service, you agree the Ontario Arbitration Act, applicable Canada federal law, and applicable laws of the Province of Ontario, Canada, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern these Conditions of Use and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and ReadLit.

For Quebec consumers: These Conditions of Use and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and ReadLit shall be governed by the laws of the Province of Quebec, without reference to its conflict of laws provisions, and the laws of Canada applicable therein, and any disputes will be submitted to the courts of competent jurisdiction of the District of Montreal, in the Province of Quebec.

A. Notification Procedures. ReadLit may provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to you via e-mail notice, written or hard copy notice, or through conspicuous posting of such notice on our website, as determined by ReadLit in our sole discretion. ReadLit reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to our Users, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Agreement.

B. Entire Agreement/Severability. This Agreement, together with any other terms you agree to in connection with your use of the Service, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and ReadLit concerning the Service. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.

C. No Waiver. No waiver of any term of this Agreement shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and ReadLit’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Please contact our legal department with any questions regarding this Agreement.
