NATURE OF RELATIONSHIP/WAIVER OF EQUITABLE RELIEF: Each entrant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the relationship between the entrant and the Casting Entities is not a confidential, fiduciary, or other special relationship, and that the entrant’s decision to provide the entrant’s Submission to the Bay Club Company for purposes of the Casting Call does not place the Casting Entities in a position that is any different from the position held by members of the general public with regard to elements of the entrant’s Submission.

Finally, each entrant acknowledges that, with respect to any claim by entrant relating to or arising out of a Casting Entity’s actual or alleged exploitation or use of any Submission or other material submitted in connection with the Casting Call, the damage, if any, thereby caused to the applicable entrant will not be irreparable or otherwise sufficient to entitle such entrant to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, and entrant’s rights and remedies in any such event shall be strictly limited to the right to recover damages, if any, in an action at law.

NO OBLIGATION TO USE: The Bay Club Company shall have no obligation (express or implied) to use any Submission or any materials or content created by the entrant (collectively, the “Materials”), select any Selected Models, or to otherwise exploit any Submission or Materials or, if commenced, to continue the distribution or exploitation thereof, and the Bay Club Company may at any time abandon the use of the Submission or Materials for any reason, with or without legal justification or excuse, and contestants shall not be entitled to any damages or other relief by reason thereof.

DATES & DEADLINES/ANTICIPATED NUMBER OF ENTRANTS: Because of the unique nature and scope of the Casting Call, the Bay Club Company reserves the right, in addition to those other rights reserved herein, to modify any date(s) or deadline(s) set forth in these Official Rules or otherwise governing the Casting Call. The Bay Club Company cannot accurately predict the number of entrants who will participate in the Casting Call.

FURTHER DOCUMENTATION: If the Bay Club Company shall desire to secure additional assignments, certificates of engagement for the Submission, the Materials or other documents as the Bay Club Company may reasonably require in order to effectuate the purposes and intents of these Official Rules, then each entrant agrees to sign the same upon the Bay Club Company’s request therefor.

LEGAL

We do not prescreen User-Generated Content.  However, all Content submitted may be subject to a review and approval process and therefore may not be posted to our User-Generated Websites immediately. We reserve the right, but not the responsibility, to refuse to post or to remove any Content that does not comply with requirements above. Any such refusals are made at our sole discretion, and we shall have no obligation to inform you if your submission was refused.  Moreover, as the Content is not prescreened, the Company does not guarantee that our User-Generated Websites will be free from User-Generated Content that is inaccurate, deceptive, offensive, threatening, defamatory, unlawful, or otherwise objectionable.

You acknowledge and agree that the Company does not have any obligation to review User-Generated Content; that the Company is not in any manner responsible for User-Generated Content; that the Company does not guarantee the accuracy, integrity or quality of User-Generated Content; and that the Company cannot assure that harmful, inaccurate, deceptive, offensive, threatening, defamatory, unlawful or otherwise objectionable User-Generated Content will not appear on the User-Generated Websites. You also acknowledge that by providing you with the ability to access, view, and post User Generated Content on the website, the Company is merely acting as a passive conduit for such distribution and is not undertaking any obligation or liability relating to any User-Generated Content or activities of Users on the User-Generated Websites. The Company may, in appropriate circumstances and at its sole discretion, edit or remove any User-Generated Content, terminate the accounts of Users who may be violating these terms and conditions, or otherwise prohibit such Users from accessing the Website.

You agree that if the Content is posted, you will have no right of approval before or right to deletion after the Content is posted on our User-Generated Websites and that you and your heirs and assignees will have no claim to compensation, and no claim (including, without limitation, claims based upon invasion of privacy, defamation, or right of publicity) arising out of any use, blurring, alteration, distortion, illusionary effect, faulty reproduction, fictionalization, or use in any composite form of your name, video, picture, likeness, and voice.

You understand that if we elect to post your Content on our User-Generated Websites, you will not receive any compensation, prize, or remuneration of any kind and your submission will be accessed and viewed by others, including by the general public.  You are solely responsible for your Content and the consequences of your Content being posted on our User-Generated Websites.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assignees, from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including but not limited to attorneys’ fees) arising from or related to: (a) your violation or breach of these terms; or (b) your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, trademark, property, privacy, or publicity right.  This indemnification, defense and hold harmless obligation will, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, survive your use of our User-Generated Websites.

COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT

If your work has been copied and posted on the Website in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please notify our copyright agent in accordance with the provisions set forth below.

COMPLAINTS

You agree that you shall immediately notify the Company in writing of any objectionable Content appearing on the Website. The Company will make good faith efforts to investigate allegations that any User-Generated Content violates these Terms and Conditions but (i) makes no warranty to you that it will edit, remove, or continue to permit the display of any specific User-Generated Content, whether or not subject to such allegations, and (ii) will have no liability whatsoever for editing, removing, or continuing to permit the display of any User-Generated Content whatsoever.

COPYRIGHT AGENT

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 that your work has been copied and posted on the Website in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide our copyright agent with the following information: (1) an electronic or physical signature of the copyright owner or of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest; (2) a description of the copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; (3) a description of where the material that you claim is infringing is located on the Website; (4) your address, telephone number, and e-mail address; (5) a written statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (6) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the above information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on the copyright owner’s behalf. Any notification by a copyright owner or a person authorized to act on its behalf that fails to comply with requirements of the DMCA shall not be considered sufficient notice and shall not be deemed to confer upon the Company actual knowledge of facts or circumstances from which infringing material or acts are evident. The Company’s copyright agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement can be reached as follows:

The Bay Club Company, LLC
Attention: Legal Department
1 Lombard Street
San Francisco, CA 94111

We suggest that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice with the Company’s copyright agent, as there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA.

SEVERABILITY

If any provision in these Terms and Conditions is held invalid, the remainder of these Terms and Conditions shall continue to be enforceable.  If any provision in these Terms and Conditions is deemed unlawful, void, or unenforceable, then that provision is deemed severable from these Terms and Conditions and the remaining provisions are still valid and enforceable.

TERMINATION

The Company reserves the right in its sole discretion to terminate your account, delete your profile and any of your User Generated Content, and restrict your use of all or any part of our User-Generated Websites for any or no reason, without notice and without liability to you or anyone else.  The Company also reserves the right to block Users from certain IP addresses or device numbers and prevent access to our User-Generated Websites. You understand and agree that some of your User Generated Content, such as that which is displayed outside your profile, in activity feeds, in other parts of the websites, or on other platforms (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, Google), may continue to appear on the Websites, or on other platforms even after your User-Generated Content is removed or your account is terminated.  These Terms and Conditions remain in effect even after your account is terminated.

CHANGES TO THE TERMS OF SERVICE

We reserve the right to modify these Terms and Conditions for User-Generated Content from time to time without notice.  You understand and agree that your access to or use of the Site is governed by the Terms and Conditions effective at the time of your access to or use of the Site.  You are responsible for regularly reviewing these Terms and Conditions so that you will be apprised of any changes, as revised versions will be binding on you.

      Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, Oregon isn’t offering group volunteering options right now. Hopefully next year!
