2. License Grant and Restrictions

A. Consumer License. Consumer License. If a Disney Product, or third party providing Disney Products subject to this Agreement, is configured to enable the use of software, content, virtual items or other materials owned or licensed by us, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable license to access and use in Australia such software, content, virtual item or other material for your personal, non-commercial use only, only for as long as that Disney Product is made available to you by us, or an authorised third party, and only in accordance with this Agreement and/or the specific terms that apply to that Disney Product, with no right to reproduce, distribute, communicate to the public, make available to the public, or transform any Disney Product, including in connection with any use, creation, development, modification, prompting, fine-tuning, training, testing, benchmarking or validation of any artificial intelligence or machine learning tool, model, system, algorithm, product or other technology (“AI Tool”), in any media format or channel now known or hereafter devised (except as may be expressly described within the Disney Product or used in a Disney Product in the manner for which it was intended). This is a license agreement and not an agreement for sale or assignment of any rights in the Disney Products. Except as we specifically agree in writing, no element of the Disney Products may be used or exploited in any way other than as part of the authorised Product made available to you. You may own the physical media on which elements of the Disney Products are made available to you, but we retain full and complete ownership of the Disney intellectual property. We do not transfer title to any portion of the Disney websites, software, applications, content, virtual items or other materials and/or services to you.

If you access a Disney Product using an Apple iOS, Android or Microsoft Windows-powered device or Microsoft Xbox One, then Apple Inc., Google, Inc. or Microsoft Corporation, as applicable, shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

H. Commercial, Marketing, or Branding Use Prohibited. Except as expressly licensed, we do not allow uses of the Disney Products, or other Disney intellectual property, that are commercial or business-related, including uses in marketing or branding, or that advertise or offer to sell or promote products or services (whether or not for profit), or that solicit others (including solicitations for contributions or donations).

4. Paid Transactions

A. Identity of Seller. Sales are made by Disney or the authorised seller identified at the time of sale, if different. If you have questions about your order, please contact the seller at the address provided and they will assist you. Some digital storefronts on the Disney Products are operated by third parties and, in that case, different or additional sale terms may apply, which you should read when they are presented to you.

B. Digital Content and Virtual Items. We may make applications, games, software or other digital content available on the Disney Products or through authorised third parties for you to license for a one-time fee. When purchasing a license to access such material from a Disney Product, charges will be disclosed to you before you complete the license purchase.

Your purchase of a virtual item or in-game currency is a payment for a limited, non-assignable license to access and use such content or functionality as intended by the Disney Products with no right to reproduce, distribute, communicate to the public, make available to the public or transform any Disney Product via any online media, in any media format or channel now known or hereafter devised (except as may be expressly described or contemplated within the Disney Product). Virtual items (including characters and character names) or in-game currency purchased or available to you in the Disney Products can only be used in connection with the Disney Products where you obtained them or where they were assembled by you as a result of game play. These items are not redeemable or subject to refund, to the fullest extent permitted by law, and cannot be traded outside of the Disney Products for money or other items for value. We may modify or discontinue virtual items or in-game currency at any time, but subject to our general rights to make amendments to our terms, as set out in section 1.D above. If we discontinue use of virtual items or in-game currency at time that you hold such items in your account, we will provide you with a credit, refund, discount or other form of consideration to the extent required in accordance with our obligations under Schedule 2 of Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) (“Australian Consumer Law“) and to the extent those obligations cannot be excluded, restricted or modified under any law. However, if we discontinue your use of virtual items or in-game currency due to your violation of this Agreement or the applicable Disney Product terms, then you will not be eligible for any such credit, refund, discount or other consideration.

C. Digital Movie Codes. Digital codes originally packaged in a combination disc + code package (a package that includes a DVD, Blu-Ray, and/or 4K/UHD disc(s) and a digital code) may not be sold separately and may be redeemed only by an individual who obtains the code in the original combination disc + code package, or by a family member of that individual. Digital codes are not authorised for redemption if sold separately. You may use digital movie codes to obtain licensed access to digital movies only as specifically authorised under this Agreement and the terms and conditions of the participating provider of digital content through which you access or download the digital movie. Digital movie codes sold, distributed, purchased, or transferred in a manner inconsistent with this Agreement are subject to being invalidated.

Digital Movie Code Returns. If you do not agree to the above terms and conditions for redeeming a digital movie code obtained by you or a family member in an original combination disc + code package, you may return the combination disc + code package to Disney for a refund subject to the conditions provided at this link.

D. Subscriptions. Some Disney Products require paid subscriptions and the acceptance of supplemental terms to access. By signing up for a subscription, you agreed that your subscription will be automatically renewed and, unless you cancel your subscription, you authorised us to charge your payment method for the renewal term. You agree that, to the extent permitted by law, and subject to any applicable supplemental terms, we can change the terms of the subscription with advance notice to you and an opportunity for you to cancel. The period of auto-renewal will be the same as your initial subscription period unless otherwise disclosed to you. The renewal rate will be no more than the rate for the immediately prior subscription period, excluding any promotional and discount pricing, unless we notify you of a rate change prior to your auto-renewal, in which case you will have the right to cancel the renewal of your subscription. From time to time, we may offer a free trial subscription for a Disney Product. If you register for a free trial subscription, we will begin to bill your account when the free trial subscription expires, unless you cancel your subscription before that time.

Unless otherwise disclosed when you subscribe, you have the right to cancel your Disney Product subscription. When a subscription is cancelled, you may not receive a prorated refund, but in such a case you will continue to have access to the Disney Products until the end of the term during which you cancelled the subscription. If you cancel your subscription, you will still be obligated to pay other charges incurred by you in the course of using the Disney Product prior to the date of cancellation. If you pay a periodic subscription fee for a Disney Product, we will provide you with reasonable notice of changes to the fees or billing methods in advance of their effective date and you will be able to cancel your subscription prior to such change. If you subscribed online, we will give you the option of cancelling the subscription online.

E. The Order Process. You will have the opportunity to review and confirm your order, including delivery address (if applicable), payment method and product details. We will send to you a notice when we accept your order and our acceptance will be deemed complete and for all purposes to have been effectively communicated to you at the time we send the notice. At such time, the contract for sale will be made and become binding on both you and us. The risk of loss in any goods you purchase and the responsibility to insure them passes to you when the relevant goods are delivered.

We reserve the right to refuse or cancel any order prior to delivery (acting reasonably). Some situations that may result in your order being cancelled include system or typographical errors, inaccuracies in product or pricing information or product availability, fairness among customers where supplies are limited, or problems identified by our credit or fraud departments. We also may require additional verification or information (acting reasonably) before accepting an order. We will contact you if any portion of your order is cancelled or if additional information is required to accept your order. If your order is cancelled after we have processed your payment but prior to delivery, we will refund your payment.

F. Payments and Billing. When you provide payment information, you represent and warrant that the information is accurate, that you are authorised to use the payment method provided, and that you will notify us of changes to the payment information. We reserve the right to utilise third party payment card updating services to obtain current expiration dates on credit cards and debit cards.

G. Right of Cancellation; Return of Goods. You may have the right to cancel an order placed for a Disney Product – depending on the nature of the Disney Product. Please read the following information carefully so you understand your right of cancellation.

If you wish to cancel, you must do so by following the cancellation instructions for the particular Disney Product. A sample cancellation form is available here.

i. Cancelling Subscriptions: Please see the information above on the process for cancelling subscriptions in our Subscriptions section, above.

ii. Digital Content: When you purchase a license to access digital content or virtual items, you will be given an opportunity to consent to delivery at the time of purchase. By consenting to delivery, you acknowledge that, to the extent permitted by law, you have forfeited the right to cancel. License purchase fees paid for digital content are non-refundable to the extent permitted by law, unless otherwise indicated.

iii. Physical Goods: You have the right, within thirty (30) days from the date of your receipt of physical goods, to cancel our contract with you and return the goods. Subject to applicable laws, this right does not apply to goods stated by us on the Disney Products to be non-returnable, including but not limited to:

• Any products with a seal, where the seal is broken, such as audio and video recordings, computer software, and CD’s, DVD’s or other physical media that have been supplied in sealed packaging; and

• Personalized items.

iv. Personalised Goods: We reserve the right to refuse personalised orders at our discretion (acting reasonably). Inappropriate use of our personalization service will cause your order to be cancelled and any payment refunded.

These cancellation rights are separate from and in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law should any item we supply be faulty or otherwise fail to meet any of the consumer guarantees available to you under the Australian Consumer Law which cannot be excluded.

If you are returning goods that are not faulty, you may be required to pay for the cost of returning the goods to us and we may deduct a reasonable amount if you used the goods.

H. Pricing; Taxes. We may revise the pricing for the Disney Products we offer. When you place your order, we estimate the applicable tax and include that estimate in the total for your convenience. Except to the extent required under applicable tax laws, the actual tax amount that will be applied to your order and charged to your payment method is based on calculations on the date of shipment, regardless of when the order was placed.

I. International Shipping; Customs. When ordering goods for delivery to countries other than the country where the seller is located, you may have to pay import duties and taxes levied. These and any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you. For goods shipped internationally, please note that any manufacturer warranty may not be valid; manufacturer service options may not be available; manuals, instructions and safety warnings may not be in destination country languages; the goods and accompanying materials may not be designed in accordance with destination country standards, specifications, and labelling requirements; and the goods may not conform to destination country voltage (requiring use of an adapter or converter). You are responsible for assuring the goods can be lawfully imported to the destination country. When ordering from us, the recipient is the importer of record and must comply with all laws and regulations of the destination country.

J. Gift Cards. Disney gift cards may be offered for purchase and/or redemption in connection with certain Disney Products, subject to additional terms of service. The risk of loss and title for gift cards passes to you at the time of electronic transmission or delivery to the carrier. Gift cards may be redeemed at eligible locations and for eligible products and services. Please review the gift card FAQ’s for more information.

5. Contests, Sweepstakes and Promotions

Contests, sweepstakes and other similar promotions that you enter on a Disney Product or in connection with Disney Products integrated with a third-party website, service, application, platform, and/or content (“Disney Promotions”) may be subject to official rules and/or conditions that are supplemental to this Agreement, and which may provide details governing the Disney Promotion such as eligibility requirements, entry instructions, deadlines, prize information and restrictions. If you wish to participate in any Disney Promotion, please first review the applicable official rules and/or conditions. If a Disney Promotion’s official rules and/or conditions conflict with this Agreement, the provisions contained in the official rules and/or conditions govern and control the Disney Promotion. Your entry to a Disney Promotion constitutes User Generated Content (as defined in Section 7 below) and is subject to all provisions of this Agreement that govern your submission and our use of your User Generated Content.

6. Disclaimers and Limitation on Liability

IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION EXCEED ONE THOUSAND AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS (AUD $1,000), EXCEPT THAT WHERE SUCH A LIMITATION IS PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAWS, INCLUDING UNDER THE AUSTRALIAN CONSUMER LAW, LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

FOR THE AVOIDANCE OF DOUBT, NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT IS INTENDED TO EXCLUDE, RESTRICT OR MODIFY ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY YOU MAY HAVE IN STATUTE UNDER THE AUSTRALIAN CONSUMER LAW OR OTHERWISE TO THE EXTENT THAT THAT RIGHT OR REMEDY CANNOT BE EXCLUDED, RESTRICTED OR MODIFIED UNDER LAW.

Subject to this Section 8, you and Disney agree to take all reasonable steps, including negotiation, to resolve as provided below, all Disputes between you (including any related disputes involving The Walt Disney Company, its subsidiaries, or its affiliates). “Dispute” includes any claim, dispute, action, or other controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, whether based in contract, tort, statute, or common law, between you and Disney concerning the Disney Products or this Agreement and any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.

A. Informal Dispute Resolution. You and Disney agree to attempt to avoid the costs of formal dispute resolution by giving each party a full and fair opportunity to address and resolve the Dispute informally and, in the event of a Dispute not covered by Section 8B., 8C. or 8D. below, the claiming party must send to the other party a notice of a Dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving the notice, detailed factual information sufficient to evaluate the merits of the claiming party’s individualised claim, and the specific relief sought, including whatever amount of money is demanded and the means by which the demanding party calculated the claimed damages. You must send any notice of a Dispute to The Walt Disney Company (Australia) Pty Ltd, Building 10, Level 3, 658 Church Street, Richmond, Victoria, 3121 Australia, Attention: Legal. We will send any notice of a Dispute to you at the contact information we have available for you, which may include, if applicable, the contact information associated with your Disney account. You and Disney will attempt to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days beginning from the date the notice of a Dispute is sent. This informal negotiation requires an individual meet-and-confer in person, or via teleconference or videoconference, that addresses only the Dispute between you and Disney (the “Conference”). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the Conference. Disney will participate in the Conference through one or more representatives, which may include our counsel. After the end of the sixty (60) day informal negotiation period and not before, and only after the completion of the Conference with respect to a claim, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding regarding that claim.

B. Small Claims. You may instead litigate a Dispute in the small claims division of a state or federal court or tribunal in Victoria, Australia or, if you do not live in Victoria, in the Australian state or territory in which you reside (“Small Claims Forum”) if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in a Small Claims Forum, whether or not you negotiated informally first.

C. Nothing in this Section 8 will prevent a party from instituting proceedings to seek urgent injunctive or interlocutory relief in respect of a Dispute or in connection with a Dispute relating to the enforcement of either parties’ intellectual property rights.

D. Each party agrees that a court may enter injunctive relief to enforce the pre-filing requirements of Section 8A., including an injunction to stay an arbitration that has been commenced in violation of Section 8A.

E. Arbitration Process and Rules. If you and Disney do not resolve a Dispute by informal negotiation or any of the proceedings referred to in Section 8B. C. or D. above, the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Commercial Arbitration Act 2011 (Vic) or equivalent legislation. Any arbitration will be administered by the Resolution Institute (“Resolution Institute”) in accordance with the Resolution Institute Arbitration Rules (the “Resolution Institute Rules”) which are deemed to be incorporated by and subject to the terms of this Section 8. The Resolution Institute Rules and instructions about how to initiate an arbitration are available at https://www.resolution.institute or +61 2 9251 3366. The seat of arbitration shall be in Melbourne, Australia and the language of the arbitration will be English. Arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. You and Disney agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts located in the State of Victoria , in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgement on the award entered by the arbitrator. The arbitrator may award damages to either party individually as a court could, including declaratory or injunctive relief, but only to the extent required to satisfy such party’s individual claim.

F. In accordance with the Resolution Institute Rules, the party initiating the arbitration (either you or Disney) is responsible for paying the registration fee. However, if the arbitrator issues you an award of damages and: (a) that award is greater than the amount of our last written settlement offer; or (b) if we did not make a settlement offer, then in addition to paying for any fee charged by the Resolution Institute, and all professional fees for the arbitrator’s services, we will reimburse you for the registration fees you incurred.

G. Except as provided above with respect to jurisdiction in Victoria, Australia, nothing in this Section shall be construed as consent by Disney or its affiliates to the jurisdiction of any other court with regard to Disputes, claims or controversies unrelated to this Agreement.

H. Dispute Resolution Survival. This Dispute Resolution Section e will survive the termination of your relationship with Disney, including any revocation of consent or other action by you to end your engagement with or use of any Disney Products or any communication with us.

I. If you have questions or concerns about the meaning of any provision of this Dispute Resolution Section, please feel free to seek the counsel of an attorney. We thank you for understanding why it is important that we agree on the process for addressing disputes.

9. Additional Provisions

A. Choice of Forum. Subject to Section 8B, you agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to this Agreement that is not subject to arbitration shall be filed, and that venue properly lies, only in the state or federal courts located in the State of Victora and you consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating such action.

B. Choice of Law. This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Victoria, Australia, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles.

C. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from this Agreement and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

D. Survival. The provisions of this Agreement which by their nature should survive the termination of this Agreement shall survive such termination, including but not limited to the restrictions, disclaimers, limitations, our rights to use submitted content, and rules regarding dispute resolution in Sections 2, 3, 6, 7 and 8 as well as the general provisions in this Section 9.

E. Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement by us shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such provision or any other provision, and our failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
