You and CI Games agree that your use of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, and this Agreement, and any issues arising out of them, will be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of Poland and any dispute regarding it will be exclusively under the jurisdiction of the courts of Poland. In any legal claim under this Agreement, the side which wins will be entitled to its legal fees and expenses.
(b) If you are resident in the United States of America:
The Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration language in section 16 below will govern and control resolution of any disputes between you and CI Games in connection with the Game.
16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND BINDING ARBITRATION
16.1 Disputes. If you have concerns or issues with CI Games, CIG hopes both parties can resolve them quickly and amicably through the Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 legal support service accessible at legal@cigames.com. However, please be aware that occasionally there might be legal disputes which are not quickly or amicably resolved.
16.2 Informal Dispute Resolution.
You and CI Games both agree to make reasonable and good faith efforts to resolve any dispute between them informally. This dispute resolution period shall last thirty (30) days unless exceptional circumstances exist. If it is not resolved during this time, the next steps depend on place of your residence. If you are resident in the European Union, you may be entitled to submit a complaint through the Online Dispute Resolution Platform operated by the European Commission, details of which can be found at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.
16.3 Dispute Resolution Next Steps (if you live in the European Union or elsewhere in the world, but not the United States of America).
You and CI Games have the legal right to commence legal claims against each other if one party considers it necessary. If you bring a claim against CI Games S.A., you should send a physical copy by Federal Express, DHL, or similar express courier service to “CI Games S.A., Attention: General Counsel, ul. Twarda 18, 00-105, Warsaw, Poland” as well as a digital copy to legal@cigames.com.
16.4 Dispute Resolution Next Steps (if you live in the United States of America).
Arbitration:
You and CI Games agree to resolve all disputes and claims between the parties by non-binding mediation and, failing that, in individual binding arbitration. This includes without limitation any claims arising from this Agreement, and/or any part of the relationship between you and CI Games S.A. You and CIG agree that any claim arising out of or related to Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 must be made within one (1) year after the claim arose; otherwise, such claim is permanently barred. This section applies whether the dispute or claim is based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, unfair competition, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable doctrine.
“Mediation” means a consensual non-binding dispute resolution process where each party privately presents its position to a neutral fact-finder agreed upon by the parties, who serves as a go-between and negotiator between the parties in an attempt to find common ground and a resolution to the dispute.
“Arbitration” means a consensual dispute resolution process where both sides present their case to a single neutral arbitrator (who is a retired judge). Arbitration is less formal than court litigation and it has fewer formal rules (which we talk about below). By choosing arbitration the parties are giving up the right to have any dispute between them heard in court (before a judge and/or jury). You agree that the provisions in this paragraph will survive any termination of your access to Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2.
How to start an arbitration:
Any dispute, claim or controversy, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in Los Angeles, California before one arbitrator who is a retired judge. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The parties shall each pay one-half of the arbitration fees. Any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. Sections 1-16). No demand for arbitration may be made after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim or dispute would be barred by this Agreement or the applicable statute of limitations.
A party may apply to the arbitrator seeking injunctive relief until an arbitration award is rendered or the dispute is otherwise resolved. A party also may, without waiving any other remedy, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party pending the arbitrator’s appointment or decision on the merits of the dispute.
Discovery in the arbitration shall be subject to the following terms: (i) the parties shall be limited to serving two sets of requests for documents; the initial set of document requests served by each party may contain no more than twenty (20) requests; the second set of document requests served by each party may contain no more than ten (10) requests; (ii) there shall be production of electronic documents only from sources used in the ordinary course of business; (iii) there shall be no interrogatories or requests to admit; (iv) each party may take four (4) discovery depositions, with each deposition to consume no more than seven (7) hours.
The evidentiary hearing on the merits is to commence within 150 days of the service of the arbitration demand.
The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned decision. If the arbitrator determines that a party has generally prevailed in the arbitration proceeding, then the arbitrator shall award to that party its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees and costs. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, and the parties expressly consent to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in Los Angeles, California for entry of judgment on the award. The arbitration proceedings and arbitrator’s award shall be maintained by the parties as strictly confidential, except as is otherwise required by court order or as is necessary to confirm, vacate or enforce the award and for disclosure in confidence to the parties’ respective attorneys, tax advisors and senior management.
If either party wants to commence arbitration, then the initiating party must send the other side a written notice setting out the basis of the claim and what remedy the initiating party is seeking from the other side. A printed version of this Agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. If you send a notice to CI Games, please send by mail to: CI Games S.A., ul. Twarda 18, 00-105, Warsaw, Poland and by email to legal@cigames.com.
16.6 Class Actions Waiver.
To the maximum extent permitted by the national or state law applicable, you and CI Gamesagree not under any circumstances to bring or participate in a class or representative action, private attorney general action or collective arbitration. That means, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilise class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
If the Agreement in this section not to bring or participate in a class or representative action, private attorney general action or collective arbitration is found illegal or unenforceable, you and CI Games agree that it will not be severable: this entire section will be deemed unenforceable and any claim or dispute will therefore be resolved in court.
17. MISCELLANEOUS
17.1 Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found not to be legally enforceable, this will not affect any other part of it.
17.2 No Third Parties. This Agreement governs the relationship between you and CI Games(and vice versa). It does not create any rights for anyone else unless explicitly stated otherwise in this Agreement.
17.3 Other Laws. CI Games S.A. is subject to various laws and thus may be required to comply with law enforcement or other legal requirements, including import/export controls. You and CIG agree that the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 or this Agreement.
17.4 Transfer. CI Games S.A. can assign, subcontract or transfer this Agreement to a third party or another member of CI Games Capital Group if necessary for the support of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, as part of any reorganisation or merger or for other business reasons. CIG will notify you if this happens.
17.5 Delay. No failure or delay by you or CI Games to exercise any right or remedy provided under this Agreement or by law will constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor will it preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy, unless explicitly stated otherwise in this Agreement. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy by you or CIG will preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
17.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other documents referred to within it, constitutes the entire agreement between you and CI Games regarding this Agreement and supersede any earlier oral or written agreements.
18. AMENDMENTS TO THIS AGREEMENT
18.1 Changes. CI Games S.A. may change this Agreement if it is necessary in CIG’s opinion (e.g., for legal reasons or to reflect changes in Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2). If so, CIG will make the amended Agreement available online and make reasonable efforts to tell you about it.
18.2 Binding Date. Once the Agreement is amended, it will become legally binding on you thirty (30) days after it is posted online. During that period, you may always contact CIGames at legal@cigames.com if you have specific questions about the amendments.

15. GOVERNING LAW
15.1
(a) If you are resident in the European Union and elsewhere in the world (but not the United States of America):
You and CI Games agree that your use of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, and this Agreement, and any issues arising out of them, will be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of Poland and any dispute regarding it will be exclusively under the jurisdiction of the courts of Poland. In any legal claim under this Agreement, the side which wins will be entitled to its legal fees and expenses.
(b) If you are resident in the United States of America:
The Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration language in section 16 below will govern and control resolution of any disputes between you and CI Games in connection with the Game.
16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND BINDING ARBITRATION
16.1 Disputes. If you have concerns or issues with CI Games, CIG hopes both parties can resolve them quickly and amicably through the Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 legal support service accessible at legal@cigames.com. However, please be aware that occasionally there might be legal disputes which are not quickly or amicably resolved.
16.2 Informal Dispute Resolution.
You and CI Games both agree to make reasonable and good faith efforts to resolve any dispute between them informally. This dispute resolution period shall last thirty (30) days unless exceptional circumstances exist. If it is not resolved during this time, the next steps depend on place of your residence. If you are resident in the European Union, you may be entitled to submit a complaint through the Online Dispute Resolution Platform operated by the European Commission, details of which can be found at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/.
16.3 Dispute Resolution Next Steps (if you live in the European Union or elsewhere in the world, but not the United States of America).
You and CI Games have the legal right to commence legal claims against each other if one party considers it necessary. If you bring a claim against CI Games S.A., you should send a physical copy by Federal Express, DHL, or similar express courier service to “CI Games S.A., Attention: General Counsel, ul. Twarda 18, 00-105, Warsaw, Poland” as well as a digital copy to legal@cigames.com.
16.4 Dispute Resolution Next Steps (if you live in the United States of America).
Arbitration:
You and CI Games agree to resolve all disputes and claims between the parties by non-binding mediation and, failing that, in individual binding arbitration. This includes without limitation any claims arising from this Agreement, and/or any part of the relationship between you and CI Games S.A. You and CIG agree that any claim arising out of or related to Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 must be made within one (1) year after the claim arose; otherwise, such claim is permanently barred. This section applies whether the dispute or claim is based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, unfair competition, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable doctrine.
“Mediation” means a consensual non-binding dispute resolution process where each party privately presents its position to a neutral fact-finder agreed upon by the parties, who serves as a go-between and negotiator between the parties in an attempt to find common ground and a resolution to the dispute.
“Arbitration” means a consensual dispute resolution process where both sides present their case to a single neutral arbitrator (who is a retired judge). Arbitration is less formal than court litigation and it has fewer formal rules (which we talk about below). By choosing arbitration the parties are giving up the right to have any dispute between them heard in court (before a judge and/or jury). You agree that the provisions in this paragraph will survive any termination of your access to Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2.
How to start an arbitration:
Any dispute, claim or controversy, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration in Los Angeles, California before one arbitrator who is a retired judge. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The parties shall each pay one-half of the arbitration fees. Any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. Sections 1-16). No demand for arbitration may be made after the date when the institution of legal or equitable proceedings based on such claim or dispute would be barred by this Agreement or the applicable statute of limitations.
A party may apply to the arbitrator seeking injunctive relief until an arbitration award is rendered or the dispute is otherwise resolved. A party also may, without waiving any other remedy, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party pending the arbitrator’s appointment or decision on the merits of the dispute.
Discovery in the arbitration shall be subject to the following terms: (i) the parties shall be limited to serving two sets of requests for documents; the initial set of document requests served by each party may contain no more than twenty (20) requests; the second set of document requests served by each party may contain no more than ten (10) requests; (ii) there shall be production of electronic documents only from sources used in the ordinary course of business; (iii) there shall be no interrogatories or requests to admit; (iv) each party may take four (4) discovery depositions, with each deposition to consume no more than seven (7) hours.
The evidentiary hearing on the merits is to commence within 150 days of the service of the arbitration demand.
The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned decision. If the arbitrator determines that a party has generally prevailed in the arbitration proceeding, then the arbitrator shall award to that party its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related to the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees and costs. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction, and the parties expressly consent to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in Los Angeles, California for entry of judgment on the award. The arbitration proceedings and arbitrator’s award shall be maintained by the parties as strictly confidential, except as is otherwise required by court order or as is necessary to confirm, vacate or enforce the award and for disclosure in confidence to the parties’ respective attorneys, tax advisors and senior management.
If either party wants to commence arbitration, then the initiating party must send the other side a written notice setting out the basis of the claim and what remedy the initiating party is seeking from the other side. A printed version of this Agreement and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. If you send a notice to CI Games, please send by mail to: CI Games S.A., ul. Twarda 18, 00-105, Warsaw, Poland and by email to legal@cigames.com.
16.6 Class Actions Waiver.
To the maximum extent permitted by the national or state law applicable, you and CI Gamesagree not under any circumstances to bring or participate in a class or representative action, private attorney general action or collective arbitration. That means, to the fullest extent permitted by law: (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilise class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.
If the Agreement in this section not to bring or participate in a class or representative action, private attorney general action or collective arbitration is found illegal or unenforceable, you and CI Games agree that it will not be severable: this entire section will be deemed unenforceable and any claim or dispute will therefore be resolved in court.
17. MISCELLANEOUS
17.1 Severability. If any part of this Agreement is found not to be legally enforceable, this will not affect any other part of it.
17.2 No Third Parties. This Agreement governs the relationship between you and CI Games(and vice versa). It does not create any rights for anyone else unless explicitly stated otherwise in this Agreement.
17.3 Other Laws. CI Games S.A. is subject to various laws and thus may be required to comply with law enforcement or other legal requirements, including import/export controls. You and CIG agree that the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2 or this Agreement.
17.4 Transfer. CI Games S.A. can assign, subcontract or transfer this Agreement to a third party or another member of CI Games Capital Group if necessary for the support of Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2, as part of any reorganisation or merger or for other business reasons. CIG will notify you if this happens.
17.5 Delay. No failure or delay by you or CI Games to exercise any right or remedy provided under this Agreement or by law will constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor will it preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy, unless explicitly stated otherwise in this Agreement. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy by you or CIG will preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy.
17.6 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the other documents referred to within it, constitutes the entire agreement between you and CI Games regarding this Agreement and supersede any earlier oral or written agreements.
18. AMENDMENTS TO THIS AGREEMENT
18.1 Changes. CI Games S.A. may change this Agreement if it is necessary in CIG’s opinion (e.g., for legal reasons or to reflect changes in Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2). If so, CIG will make the amended Agreement available online and make reasonable efforts to tell you about it.
18.2 Binding Date. Once the Agreement is amended, it will become legally binding on you thirty (30) days after it is posted online. During that period, you may always contact CIGames at legal@cigames.com if you have specific questions about the amendments. If you do not agree to those changes (regardless of whether you email CIG), then CI Games will have to ask you to cease using Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts 2.
