Proprietary Materials; Licenses
1. Proprietary Materials. The Website and Services are owned and operated by 47 Degrees. The visual interfaces, graphics, design, compilation, information, computer code (including source code or object code), software, services, content, educational videos and exercises, and all other elements of the Website and Services (the " Materials") are protected by United States and international copyright, patent, and trademark laws, international conventions, and other Applicable Laws governing intellectual property and proprietary rights. Except for any User Content provided and owned by Users and except as otherwise set forth in this Section 7, all Materials, and all trademarks, service marks, and trade names, contained on or available through the Website and Services are owned by or licensed to 47 Degrees, and 47 Degrees reserves all rights therein and thereto not expressly granted by these Terms.
2. Licensed Educational Content. 47 Degrees may make available on the Services certain educational videos, exercises, and related supplementary materials that are owned by 47 Degrees or its third-party licensors (the " Licensed Educational Content"). 47 Degrees grants to you a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use the Licensed Educational Content as made available on the Services by 47 Degrees solely for your personal, non-commercial purposes. Unless expressly indicated on the Services that a particular item of Licensed Educational Content is made available to Users under alternate license terms, you may not download, distribute, sell, lease, modify, or otherwise provide access to the Licensed Educational Content to any third party.
  1. Alternate Licenses. In certain cases, 47 Degrees or its licensors may make available Licensed Educational Content under alternate license terms, such as a variant of the Creative Commons License (as defined below) (each, an " Alternate License"). Where expressly indicated as such on the Services, and subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms, the applicable Licensed Educational Content is licensed to you under the terms of the Alternate License. By using, downloading, or otherwise accessing such Licensed Educational Content, you agree to comply fully with all the terms and conditions of such Alternate License.
  2. Creative Commons License. Unless expressly otherwise identified on the Services with respect to a particular item of Licensed Educational Content, any reference to the "Creative Commons", "CC" or similarly-phrased license shall be deemed to be a reference to the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United States License (available at creativecommons.org/licenses/) (the " Creative Commons License").
3. Licensed Educational Code. 47 Degrees may make available, or allow Users to create and make available, on or through the Services certain educational, user-readable source code in connection with the "Computer Science" modules or exercises available on the Services (the " Licensed Educational Code"). Unless otherwise indicated, all Licensed Educational Code is the property of 47 Degrees or third-party licensors and, subject to the terms and conditions of these Terms, is licensed to you under the terms of the MIT License. By downloading or otherwise accessing such Licensed Educational Code, you agree to comply with all the terms of the MIT License.
4. Non-Commercial Use. The Licensed Educational Content and Licensed Educational Code are intended for personal, non-commercial use only. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding the terms of any Alternate License for such Licensed Educational Content, the Licensed Educational Content may not be used, distributed or otherwise exploited for any commercial purpose, commercial advantage or private monetary compensation, unless otherwise previously agreed in writing by 47 Degrees.
  1. Impermissible Uses. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the following are types of uses that 47 Degrees expressly defines as falling outside of "non-commercial" use:
    1. the sale or rental of (1) any part of the Licensed Educational Content, (2) any derivative works based at least in part on the Licensed Educational Content, or (3) any collective work that includes any part of the Licensed Educational Content;
    2. providing training, support, or editorial services that use or reference the Licensed Educational Content in exchange for a fee; and
    3. the sale of advertisements, sponsorships, or promotions placed on the Licensed Educational Content, or any part thereof, or the sale of advertisements, sponsorships, or promotions on any website or blog containing any part of the Licensed Educational Material, including without limitation any "pop-up advertisements".
  2. Use Characterization. Whether a particular use of the Licensed Educational Content is "non-commercial" depends on the use, not the user. Thus, a use of the Licensed Educational Content that does not require that users pay fees and that does not provide an entity with a commercial advantage is "non-commercial," even if this use is by a commercial entity. Conversely, any use that involves charging users in connection with their access to the Licensed Educational Content is not "non-commercial," even if this use is by a non-profit entity. As an example, a for-profit corporation's use of the Licensed Educational Content for internal professional development or training of employees is permitted, so long as the corporation charges no fees, directly or indirectly, for such use. Conversely, as another example, a non-profit entity's use of the Licensed Educational Content in connection with a fee-based training or educational program is NOT "non-commercial" and is not permitted.
5. Crediting 47 Degrees. If you distribute, publicly perform or display, transmit, publish, or otherwise make available any Licensed Educational Content or any derivative works thereof, you must also provide the following notice prominently along with such Licensed Educational Content or derivative work thereof: " All 47 Degrees content is available at https://www.47deg.com/academy/".

Third-Party Sites, Products and Services; Links. The Services may include links or references to other web sites or services solely as a convenience to Users (" Reference Sites"). 47 Degrees does not endorse any such Reference Sites or the information, materials, products, or services contained on or accessible through Reference Sites.

In the event of a Dispute, you or 47 Degrees must give the other a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and a proposed solution (a " Notice of Dispute"). You must send any Notice of Dispute by first class U.S. Mail to 47 Degrees at 1012 1st Ave. Suite 600 Seattle, WA 98104 United States and also via email to [email protected]. 47 Degrees will send any Notice of Dispute to you by first class U.S. Mail to your address if 47 Degrees has it, or otherwise to your email address. You and 47 Degrees will attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the Notice of Dispute is sent. After sixty (60) days, you or 47 Degrees may commence arbitration.
  3. Binding Arbitration. Any Dispute which has not been resolved by negotiation as provided herein within sixty (60) days or such time period as you and 47 Degrees may otherwise agree, shall be finally resolved by binding arbitration as described in this Section 16.4. You are waiving the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all Disputes in court before a judge or jury. Instead, all Disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act. The place of arbitration shall be King County, Washington. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator's award.
  4. Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any Dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor 47 Degrees will seek to have any Dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.
  5. Arbitration Procedures. Any arbitration will be conducted by JAMS under the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (" JAMS Rules") in effect at the time the Dispute is filed. You may request a telephonic or in-person hearing by following the JAMS Rules. In a dispute involving $10,000 or less, any hearing will be telephonic unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. To the extent the forum provided by JAMS is unavailable, 47 Degrees and you agree to select a mutually agreeable alternative dispute resolution service and that such alternative dispute resolution service shall apply the JAMS Rules. The arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief to you only individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.
  6. Arbitration Fees. Whoever files the arbitration will pay the initial filing fee. If 47 Degrees files, then 47 Degrees will pay; if you file, then you will pay unless you get a fee waiver under the applicable arbitration rules. Each party will bear the expense of that party's attorneys, experts, and witnesses, and other expenses, regardless of which party prevails, but a party may recover any or all reasonable attorneys’ fees and arbitration costs from another party if the arbitrator, applying applicable law, so determines.
  7. Filing Period. To the extent permitted by law, any Dispute under these Terms must be filed within one (1) year in an arbitration proceeding. The one-year period begins when the events giving rise to the Dispute first occur. If a Dispute is not filed within one year, it is permanently barred.
  8. Venue. In the event that any Dispute cannot be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with this Section 16.4, you agree that such Dispute will be filed only in the state or federal courts in and for King County, Washington , and each of you and 47 Degrees hereby consent and submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of litigating any such action. Notwithstanding this, 47 Degrees shall still be allowed to apply for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect or enforce its intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction.
5. Severability. If any provision of the Terms or any Guidelines is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from the Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
6. Assignment. The Terms and related Guidelines, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without 47 Degrees's prior written consent, but may be assigned by 47 Degrees without consent or any restriction. Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of the Terms shall be null and void.
7. Survival. Upon termination of the Terms, any provision which, by its nature or express terms should survive, will survive such termination or expiration, including, but not limited to, Sections 2 through 6, 7, and 8 through 16.
8. Headings. The heading references herein are for convenience purposes only, do not constitute a part of the Terms, and will not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.
9. Entire Agreement. The Terms, the Privacy Policy and Guidelines constitute the entire agreement between you and 47 Degrees relating to the subject matter herein and will not be modified except in writing, signed by both parties, or by a change to the Terms, Privacy Policy or Guidelines made by 47 Degrees as set forth in Sections 3,4 and 5 above.
10. Disclosures. The Services are hosted in the United States, and the services provided hereunder are offered by 47 Degrees: 1012 1st Ave. Suite 600 Seattle, WA 98104 United States and also via email to [email protected].
