In accordance with the DMCA, upon taking down the Content, BottleCapps shall take reasonable steps to contact the owner of the removed Content so that a counter-notification (“Counter Notice”) may be filed.  On receiving a valid Counter Notice, BottleCapps will generally restore the Content in question, unless BottleCapps receives notice from the original provider of the Notice of Infringement that a legal action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in the infringing activity.

THESE NOTICES OF INFRINGEMENT AND COUNTER NOTICES ARE REAL-WORLD LEGAL NOTICES PROVIDED OUTSIDE THE AGREEMENT.  BOTTLECAPPS MAY PROVIDE COPIES OF SUCH NOTICES TO THE PARTICIPANTS IN THE DISPUTE OR THIRD PARTIES, AT BOTTLECAPPS’S DISCRETION AND AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR BY PROPER LEGAL, GOVERNMENTAL, OR REGULATORY AUTHORITY; THE AGREEMENTDOES NOT PROTECT INFORMATION PROVIDED IN THESE NOTICES.

Trademark Notice

You agree that in the event that BottleCapps receives a written demand alleging that any of Your Content infringes upon, dilutes, tarnishes, or otherwise violates a party’s trademark rights, BottleCapps may in its sole discretion, remove or disable access to such Content until BottleCapps receives either:

1) the information set forth in Section VIII hereinabove, except that the such information shall relate to the disputed trademark at issue rather than disputed copyrighted material and 

2) an express, irrevocable, and binding obligation pursuant to which you shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless BottleCapps from damages, costs, or expenses that BottleCapps may incur, in any manner whatsoever, arising out of or in connection with the disputed Content and BottleCapps’ restoration thereof.  

The procedures of the DMCA apply only to copyrighted works and expressly exclude any other forms of intellectual property rights, including any rights in trademarks; the process hereinabove is intended only to provide a convenient mechanism for addressing trademark disputes and does not, and shall not, be construed, as imposing any obligation on BottleCapps under the DMCA with regards to response times or the like.  BottleCapps is under no obligation to restore access to any removed Content even if you provide the aforementioned rebuttal.

Derivative Work

To the extent that you create any Derivative Work absent an explicit agreement with BottleCapps, such Derivative Work shall be owned by BottleCapps and all right, title, and interest in and to each such Derivative Work shall automatically vest in BottleCapps.  Such right, title, and interest shall be deemed paid-in-full and royalty free, and BottleCapps shall have no obligation to grant you any right in any such Derivative Work.  You hereby irrevocably assign to BottleCapps any and all joint or individual ownership, rights, titles, and interests in and to any and all such Derivative Work, including, but not limited to all:

You further assign to BottleCapps, during the full copyright or patent terms and any extensions or renewals of that term, all copyrights and patents in and to the Derivative Work.  In the event that the assignment in this Section of the Agreement does not provide BottleCapps with full ownership, rights, titles, and interests in and to the Derivative Work, you hereby grant BottleCapps an exclusive, freely transferable, freely assignable, irrevocable, paid-in-full, royalty-free, perpetual, fully worldwide license to reproduce, create derivative works from, distribute, publicly display, publicly perform, use, make, have made, offer for sale, sell or otherwise dispose of, and import the Derivative Work in any and every way BottleCapps sees fit, with the right to sublicense each and every such right.   Furthermore, you hereby assign and transfer any and all moral rights in any Derivative Work to BottleCapps.  You agree where such rights may not be assigned as a matter of law to cooperate fully with BottleCapps during the lifetime of such rights and agree not to take any interest with regard to such rights that is contrary to the will and goals of BottleCapps, and you agree not to exercise any such moral rights without the explicit prior written consent of BottleCapps.   Where any such moral rights may not be assigned as a matter of law, but may pass on to your heirs at law, you hereby disclaim any and all such moral rights.

  3. Other Information

We may combine Usage Information with your Personal Information. If we do so, we will treat the combined information as Personal Information under this Privacy Notice.

How We Collect Information

We may collect information from you in the following ways:

  1. From You Directly

We receive Personal Information directly from you when you provide it to us, such as when you register for the Platform or place an order. Additionally, you may be required to provide Personal Information when you contact us for support or with a question so that we can respond appropriately.

  1. Through Technology

We (or our vendors and partners) may use automated means to collect information about you and the device that you use to access the Platform. These automated means include technologies such as cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies (described in more detail below). These technologies help us analyze trends, administer the Services, track your interaction with the Platform, understand your preferences habits, and gather Other Information. They also allow us to provide you with recommendations and content that are tailored to you.

  1. Cookies

Our Platform uses cookies, web beacons and mobile application software development kits (“SDKs”) (collectively, “Tracking Technologies”) to gather information about you. Cookies are small text files that websites send to your device to uniquely identify your browser or to store information or settings on your device. Web beacons (sometimes called transparent GIFs, clear GIFs, or web bugs) are small strings of code that provide a way for us to deliver a small graphic image (usually invisible) on a web page or in an email. Web beacons can recognize certain types of information on your device such as cookies, the time and date a page is viewed, a description of the page where the web beacon is placed, and when you open or click on links in our emails.

An SDK is a third-party computer code that allows our third-party service providers or partners to collect information about your use of our mobile apps for a variety of purposes, including to provide us with analytics, to integrate with social media platforms, to add features or functionality to our app, or to facilitate online advertising.

We use Tracking Technologies to administer the Services, including without limitation to:

We also may allow our partners to use Tracking Technologies on our Platform. Tracking Technologies used by these partners may be used to gather information about how you use with Platform, interact with advertisements, and your purchasing habits.

To learn more about cookies and similar Tracking Technologies, and how they can affect your privacy, visit www.allaboutcookies.org. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online services that you visit. We currently do not respond to “Do Not Track” or similar signals. To find out more about “Do Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.

Your choices regarding Tracking Technologies are described in the Your Choices section below.

  1. Interest-Based Advertising

We (or our partners) may use the information we collect through Tracking Technologies, to locate or try to locate the same unique users across multiple browsers or devices (such as smartphones, tablets, or computers). Specifically, this information may be used to tailor content and features presented to you and provide you with a seamless experience across devices. We may also use cross-device targeting to help identify you and serve advertising. If you wish to opt-out of cross device tracking for purposes of interest- based advertising, you may do so through your device settings. This type of advertising is often called “interest-based” or “personalized” advertising—and when it occurs on mobile apps, “cross-app” advertising.

You can learn more about interest-based advertising and how to opt-out of receiving certain tailored advertising by visiting (1) the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link or (2) the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link. To opt-out of Google Analytics for display advertising or customize Google display network ads, you can visit the Google Ads Settings page

If we send you marketing emails about services that may interest you, each email will contain instructions permitting you to “opt- out” of receiving future email marketing communications.

  1. Data Aggregation

Additionally, we may use your Personal Information to create aggregated data records (collectively “Aggregate Data”). Some of this Aggregate Data is anonymous and/or de-identified. We anonymize and de-identify data by removing information (including any contact information) that would allow the remaining data to be linked back to you. We may use the Aggregate Data for internal purposes, such as analyzing patterns, program usage, demographic trends, and user behavior patterns and preferences to improve our Services and for other lawful purposes.

  1. Co-Branded Offerings

At certain times, we may provide you with access to deals, promotions, or opportunities (“Promotions”) in association with our partners. Such Promotions will identify the partner and indicate if they have a Privacy Notice that applies to their collection and use of your information. If you elect to register for products and/or services, communicate with these partners, or download their content or applications as part of a Promotion, you may be providing your information to both Bottlecapps and the partner.
