The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.

18.2. Binding Arbitration.

(a)Arbitration Procedures. You and WORLD FILM FEDERATION agree that, except as provided in Section 18.2, all disputes, controversies, and claims related to this ToU (each a “Claim”), shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration, which may be initiated by either party by sending a written notice requesting arbitration to the other party. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration will be conducted under the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS that are in effect at the time the arbitration is initiated (the “JAMS Rules“) and under the terms set forth in this ToU. In the event of a conflict between the terms set forth in this Section 18.2 and the JAMS Rules, the terms in this Section 18.2 will control and prevail.

(b)Except as otherwise set forth in Section 18.2, you may seek any remedies available to you under federal, state or local laws in an arbitration action. As part of the arbitration, both you and we will have the opportunity for discovery of non-privileged information that is relevant to the Claim. The arbitrator will provide a written statement of the arbitrator’s decision regarding the Claim, the award given and the arbitrator’s findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator’s decision is based. The determination of whether a Claim is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Except as otherwise provided in this ToU, (i) you and WORLD FILM FEDERATION may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator; and (ii) the arbitrator’s decision shall be final, binding on all parties and enforceable in any court that has jurisdiction, provided that any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to follow applicable law.

BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU AND WORLD FILM FEDERATION WAIVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

(i)Location. The arbitration will take place in your hometown area if you so notify WORLD FILM FEDERATION in your notice of arbitration or within ten (10) days following receipt of WORLD FILM FEDERATIONS’ arbitration notice. In the absence of a notice to conduct the arbitration in your hometown area, the arbitration will be conducted in the County of Dallas, Texas, unless the parties agree to video, phone and/or internet connection appearances.

(ii)Limitations. You and WORLD FILM FEDERATION agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Claim between WORLD FILM FEDERATION and you individually.

YOU AND WORLD FILM FEDERATION AGREE THAT (A) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE ARBITRATED ON A CLASS-ACTION BASIS OR TO UTILIZE CLASS ACTION PROCEDURES; (B) THERE IS NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY OR AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL; AND (C) NO ARBITRATION SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION.

(iii)Exceptions to Arbitration. You and WORLD FILM FEDERATION agree that the following Claims are not subject to the above provisions concerning negotiations and binding arbitration: (i) any Claim seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or WORLD FILM FEDERATION’s intellectual property rights; (ii) any Claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft or unauthorized use; and (iii) any claim for equitable relief. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Claims that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration.

(iv)Arbitration Fees. If you initiate arbitration for a Claim, you will only need to pay an arbitration initiation fee of $250 and we will pay all other costs charged by JAMS for initiating the arbitration. If we are initiating arbitration for a Claim, we will pay all costs charged by JAMS for initiating the arbitration. All other fees and costs of the arbitration will be charged pursuant to the JAMS Rules. Notwithstanding Section 19.5 of this ToU to the contrary, you will not be required to pay our attorneys’ fees or other costs if you do not prevail in the arbitration.

(v)Severability. You and WORLD FILM FEDERATION agree that if any portion this Section 18 is found illegal or unenforceable (except any portion of Section 18.2(d)), that portion shall be severed, and the remainder of the Section shall be given full force and effect. If Section 18.2(i) is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor WORLD FILM FEDERATION will elect to arbitrate any Claim falling within that portion of Section 18.2(i) found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Claim shall be exclusively decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within Dallas, State of Texas, United States of America, and you and WORLD FILM FEDERATION agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.

The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) aims to provide California residents a host of new rights, among them the ability to prevent companies from “selling” their personal information.

“Selling” data and what it means.

A common understanding of “selling” information is that it involves a company taking information it has learned about you and exchanging that information with an unrelated third party for money, who will then use that data for a new purpose that you did not intend.  World Film Federation will not condone using your personal information for any financial gain to a third party.  

We use our users’ information to help people. However, the CCPA has a much broader definition of “sell” than this. WORLD FILM FEDERATION strives to live up to the law, and your wishes, as it relates to this right.

What WORLD FILM FEDERATION does that may fall under this definition. 

This list is not meant to be exclusive but shows examples of what our products do.  We say “may” fall under the definition of “selling” data because the CCPA is new, and these issues are not yet resolved.

• We display your public profile.
• We allow third-party cookies to help employers measure job listing performance and to optimize our online advertising.
• We share data with our affiliates as described in our Privacy Center.

What WORLD FILM FEDERATION does not do.

• We don’t sell data to data brokers.
• We don’t exchange information about you with a third party for money. 

Reasons WORLD FILM FEDERATION “sells” or “transfers” your data. 

Each reason below is inherent in our mission to help you find jobs. For example, when we show a public profile to an employer, it is because a person looking for a job has made their profile public in order to show themselves to an employer.

• Showing public profiles to employers is how we help people who have made their resume public get jobs.
• Allowing employers to measure job listing performance helps drive more jobs to the people who want those jobs.
• Sharing data with our affiliates allows people looking for jobs to access more job listings and employers, and for employers to access more people looking for jobs, as well as providing improved security for our users.

Opting out of data “selling”.

A request to not “sell” or “transfer” your information to an employer prohibits us from providing our services to you. In order to opt out, you can request that we delete your account and personal data. 

Ways to opt out.

• Request to have your data deleted through this personal data request form: see below.

By submitting this request, you are declaring that you are a California resident taking advantage of your rights under CCPA. Once your data is deleted, WORLD FILM FEDERATION will be unable to transfer it.

Frequently asked questions: 

• Why am I being asked to delete data and my account?
  • How we transfer data is integral to our core products and services that help job seekers find great jobs, and employers find great candidates. At this time, we are not able to provide our core products and services without these transfers. However, you can still use WORLD FILM FEDERATION to find and apply to jobs to the extent that you wish.
• Can I still use WORLD FILM FEDERATION after deleting my account?
  • If you submit the request to opt out and delete your account, you will still be able to access all the services we offer on our site that do not require us to collect and transfer your email address. You may always register a new account or sign up to receive job alerts, but you will be required to use a different email address.
• Is it possible these practices will change?
  • WORLD FILM FEDERATION is carefully watching the State of California and its Attorney General for any new interpretations of the CCPA. If we feel it is proper to transfer the user data as our products are designed to do, we will revisit this issue. Our mission remains to help you get jobs and stay informed in the manner that you wish.

Please complete the steps below to initiate your requests.

Late or missing refunds

If you haven’t received a refund yet, first check your bank account again.

Then contact your credit card company, it may take some time before your refund is officially posted.

Next contact your bank. There is often some processing time before a refund is posted.

Sale Discounted items

Only regular priced items may be refunded. Sale discounted items cannot be refunded.

Exchanges

WFF only replace items if they are defective or damaged. If you need to exchange it for the same item, send us an email at the link below and we will inform you on the procedures on where to send your product. Post marked, Care of Exchanges.

Gifts

If the item was marked as a gift when purchased and shipped directly to you, you’ll receive a gift credit for the value of your return. Once the returned item is received, a gift certificate will be mailed to you.

If the item wasn’t marked as a gift when purchased, or the gift giver had the order shipped to themselves to give to you later, WFF will send a refund to the gift giver, and they will find out about your return.

Shipping returns

You will be responsible for paying for your own shipping costs for returning your item. Shipping costs are non-refundable. If you receive a refund, the cost of return shipping will be deducted from your refund if it is deemed that you have not paid for return shipping.

Depending on where you live, the time it may take for your exchanged product to reach you may vary. Please be patient.

If you are returning more expensive items, you may consider using a trackable shipping service or purchasing shipping insurance. We don’t guarantee that we will receive your returned item.
