2.2 License. Subject to your consent and continued compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, and revocable license to access and use the Service, games, and virtual currency, but only for your personal, private entertainment on the platform and not for any other purpose (“License”). Apart from this limited, personal, revocable, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable license to use virtual currency granted by the Service, you have no rights or ownership of any virtual currency appearing in or originating from the Service, any other property related to your use of the Service, or any other property stored in the Service.

To the extent permitted by law, if your user account or a specific service subscription associated with your user account is terminated, suspended, and/or we selectively remove or revoke any virtual currency from your user account, we will not provide a refund, nor will we return any virtual currency to you, or convert it into cash or other forms of compensation.

8.10 Payments may be delayed due to the identity verification process; some payment methods require additional verification upon redemption. Payments exceeding $10,000 may take longer than usual to process due to bank clearing, security and fraud checks, and may be made in multiple installments. This could add up to 7 days to the normal processing time, depending on the specific circumstances of each case.
8.11 Without limiting the scope of Clause 8.4, players may apply to redeem prizes of any value, but we reserve the right to distribute or pay out prizes in batches over several days until all prizes have been distributed or paid out.
8.12 If you choose to redeem your bonus for cash but refuse to accept payments from JDUYHC LLC. to your designated bank account, you must refuse the full amount. If you refuse payments more than twice within any three-month period, JDUYHC LLC. reserves the right to suspend your client account and conduct an investigation to ensure that this website is not being used as a tool for fraudulent activities.
8.13 If we inadvertently deposit bonuses that do not belong to you into your customer account due to technical malfunction, human error, or other reasons, such funds will remain the property of JDUYHC LLC. and will be deducted from your customer account. If you have received cash or gift cards that do not belong to you before we discover the error, such erroneous payment constitutes a debt you owe us (without prejudice to other remedies and actions permitted by law). If you discover an erroneous deposit, you must immediately notify customer support at support@maniajackpot.com .

Otherwise, we are under no obligation to continue the verification check, and we may close or otherwise restrict your customer account in any manner we deem reasonable.

Preliminary dispute resolution procedures and meetings
16.3 Both parties shall make their best efforts to resolve any customer service issues in a timely and informal manner in good faith. If you are dissatisfied for any reason or your claim is not resolved (“Dispute”), you may initiate arbitration in accordance with Section 17 below. However, you must first submit a notice of dispute in accordance with this Section 16 and hold a telephone or video conference with JDUYHC LLC. before initiating arbitration or any formal dispute resolution proceedings in accordance with Section 17 , which is a prerequisite.
16.4 Notice of dispute must be given prior to arbitration. The party bringing a claim in dispute must notify the other party in writing of its intention to initiate an informal dispute resolution meeting. The first meeting shall be held within forty-five (45) days after the other party receives such notice, or within the period prescribed by law, unless otherwise agreed by the parties to postpone.
16.5 All preliminary dispute resolution meetings shall be conducted solely by JDUYHC LLC. and you. Multiple individuals involved in a dispute may not attend the same informal telephone dispute resolution meeting. If one party retains legal counsel (whose fees are to be borne by that party), the counsel may attend the meeting, but each party must also attend and participate in the meeting.
16.6 To notify JDYHC LLC that you intend to initiate an informal dispute resolution meeting, please contact us at support@maniajackpot.com and provide the following information:
a. The username and/or email address associated with your user account;

g. Any remedies, actions, or amounts you seek from JDUYHC LLC.
16.7 Upon receiving your complaint, we will respond to your letter within 7 business days and provide a written response within 45 days of receiving your notification, or arrange a telephone or video conference, unless otherwise agreed upon by both parties. Failure to submit a written communication containing the foregoing information may result in our inability to promptly identify and respond to your complaint/claim, and JDUYHC LLC. reserves the right to extend the resolution period prior to the initiation of formal legal proceedings (as permitted by this clause).
16.8 Both parties shall use their best efforts to resolve any dispute, claim, problem or disagreement through good faith negotiation, which is a prerequisite for either party to initiate formal arbitration under Article 15. If the parties fail to reach a mutually agreed solution within forty-five (45) days after the commencement of an informal dispute resolution meeting, either party may initiate binding arbitration to the extent permitted by law as the sole means of resolving the claim, subject to these terms and the arbitration agreement.
16.9 The aforementioned informal dispute resolution procedure is a prerequisite for initiating any formal dispute resolution procedure (including litigation, if you have successfully opted out of the Arbitration Agreement). The parties agree that any related statutes of limitations or other time limits will be suspended solely from the time the parties initiate and participate in this informal dispute resolution procedure.
16.10 Regardless of whether you decide to withdraw from the arbitration, this Article 16 Initial Dispute Resolution Clause shall remain in full force and effect as part of this Agreement.

Pursuant to this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, you may not litigate as a representative of a class action, a member or participant in any proposed class action, class action, or mass arbitration, a private prosecutor, a whistleblower suit, or any representative suit, nor may you seek compensation in any other manner on behalf of or for the benefit of any other person. You and JDUYHC LLC. further agree that any arbitration conducted under this Agreement shall not be in the form of a class action, class action, or representative suit.
Arbitration means you will not be able to seek damages in court or have your case tried by a jury.
17.1 Acceptance of Terms. By using or otherwise accessing the Service, or by clicking to accept or agree to these Terms (if this option is available), you acknowledge that you have read, accepted, and agreed to this Agreement. Unless otherwise specified below, all your activities on the JDUYHC LLC. website or platform, including all events that occurred prior to your acceptance of this Agreement, are governed by this Agreement.
17.2 Scope of the Arbitration Agreement. You and JDUYHC LLC. agree that any past, pending, or future dispute, claim, or controversy (including, without limitation, any dispute relating to breach, enforcement, interpretation, validity, enforceability, or arbitrability of this Agreement or the Terms of Service) (“Dispute”) arising out of or relating to any purchase or transaction made by you, your access to or use of any platform or service, or related to this Agreement, the Terms of Service, or the Privacy Policy, shall be resolved by arbitration, including claims arising prior to acceptance of any version of this Agreement. Furthermore, in the event of any dispute relating to or involving this Agreement—including the scope, validity, enforceability, or severability of this Agreement or its terms, and the arbitrability of any claim—you and JDUYHC LLC. agree and retain an arbitrator with exclusive jurisdiction over the dispute to determine its jurisdiction over the dispute, including any objection to the scope, validity, enforceability, or severability of this Agreement or its terms, and the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim brought as part of the dispute.
17.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions and the arbitration agreement, all parties shall have the right to seek relief from the Small Claims Tribunal for disputes or claims that fall solely within its jurisdiction.
17.4 No estoppel or res judicata. The parties agree that any dispute settled in arbitration or any other proceedings between the parties shall be made and adjudicated solely for the benefit of the parties or their expressly designated third-party beneficiaries, and shall not have res judicata or estoppel effect on either party in any subsequent or other arbitration or litigation proceedings. Therefore, either party shall re-adjudicate all disputes in any subsequent or other proceedings. This agreement is intended to precisely and effectively adjust the parties' legal positions without concern that any third party may attempt to exploit any factual or legal determination for offensive purposes against you or JDUYHC LLC.
17.5 Third-Party Beneficiaries. You further agree and intend that this Agreement and its terms are entered into and are binding on and for the express benefit of your spouse, heirs, children, and close relatives in response to any claims arising out of or in connection with your use of the Service, whether such claims are made by you personally or by any person acting on your behalf. JDUYHC LLC. also agrees that this Agreement is intended to benefit and is binding on any successor or assign of any interest in JDUYHC LLC .
17.6 Intellectual Property. Notwithstanding the arbitration obligation set forth in Section 17, neither you nor JDUYHC LLC. shall arbitrate any claim involving the alleged unauthorized use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, trade dress, logos, trade secrets, or patents. The parties agree that if one party's copyrights, trademarks, trade names, trade dress, logos, trade secrets, or patents are infringed, the other party shall also have the right to seek injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction, and neither party shall enforce the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement concerning such claims based on user access to the Service.
17.7 Separate Agreement. Both parties acknowledge that this Agreement is a separate agreement between them governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, and that any all or any part of the Terms of Service, Services, Platform, or Privacy Policy being held invalid or illegal shall not affect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement.
17.8 Applicable Law. While the Federal Arbitration Act shall apply, for the enforceability or scope of this Agreement, if the laws of any state apply or are considered, the parties agree that the laws of the State of Delaware shall apply, regardless of whether choice of law or conflict of laws principles are considered or applied.
Arbitration proceedings initiated in accordance with JAMS rules
17.9 After the preliminary dispute resolution proceedings set forth in Article 16 have concluded, you or JDYHC LLC. may seek arbitration in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. You and JDYHC LLC. agree that JAMS (“JAMS”) will administer the arbitration in accordance with the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”) in effect at the time of seeking arbitration. The parties further agree that, to the extent applicable, the JAMS Large-Scale Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines shall also apply. The aforementioned JAMS Rules can be found at: https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/.
You and JDYHC LLC further agree:
17.9.1 Arbitration will be conducted on a case-by-case basis only.
17.9.2 The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator. The parties agree that the JAMS arbitrator must possess the following minimum qualifications: a practicing attorney or a retired federal court judge, and have at least ten years of substantial expertise in handling and resolving complex commercial disputes, including motions for compulsory arbitration and litigation or awards concerning whether a dispute is arbitrable;
17.9.3 To achieve the purposes of Articles 16.1 and 16.2 of the JAMS Rules, the JAMS Simplified Arbitration Rules and Procedures and the JAMS Fast-Track Procedures shall not apply to situations in which the parties to a dispute have expressly agreed otherwise;
17.9.4 Instead of JAMS Rule 15, a list of eight (8) potential arbitrators shall be provided to both parties, allowing for three (3) rejections, and these potential arbitrators shall be ranked by both parties in order of priority. JAMS shall select the arbitrator with the highest overall priority (e.g., if both parties have selected the same potential arbitrator as their preferred arbitrator, that arbitrator shall be selected).
17.9.5 Except as provided in Rule 18 of the JAMS Rules, the parties shall have the right to submit a decisive motion to the arbitrators at the commencement of arbitration. The submission and hearing arrangements for such motions shall be discussed at a meeting chaired by the JAMS arbitrators. The parties agree that any decisive motion shall be resolved and the remainder of the arbitration proceedings shall be suspended until the motion is resolved unless there is a just cause and it is truly necessary to continue.
17.9.6 Unless and only to the extent prohibited by the JAMS Rules, arbitration shall be conducted in Dover, Delaware, or by telephone or other remote electronic means at your or our choice;
Rule 17.9.7 of the JAMS Rules governs the payment of all arbitration fees and is currently available at https://www.jamsadr.com/arbitration-fees. For any arbitration initiated under this Section 17, you will only need to pay a $250 arbitration fee, but you will still be responsible for your own attorney's fees.
17.9.8 Except as otherwise provided or limited by the terms of this Agreement, the JAMS Arbitrator shall have the authority to award any remedy, including equitable or injunctive relief, which is available in a personal suit, except in the following circumstances:
17.9.8.1 In any arbitration arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the arbitrator shall not have the authority to award punitive or exemplary damages, and both parties waive the right to pursue any such damages;
17.9.8.2 In any arbitration arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the arbitrator shall not award any incidental, indirect, or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits;
17.9.9 The arbitral award shall consist of a written statement signed by the arbitrator, stating the outcome of each claim and the relief (if any) for each claim. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the award shall be a well-founded award and shall include a concise written explanation of the reasons for the award;
17.9.10 Unless otherwise provided by law, the arbitration proceedings, the complaint and any award shall be kept confidential and shall not be used by the parties except as necessary to seek preliminary relief in court, to make a judicial challenge to the award or to confirm and enforce the award.
17.9.11 If JAMS is unable or unwilling to adjudicate a dispute in accordance with this Agreement, the parties shall agree otherwise, or the court shall appoint another arbitration institution, provided that such institution complies with the procedural provisions of this Article 17.
17.9.12 You and JDUYHC LLC. agree that any award by the arbitrator in favor of either party exceeding $50,000, or any award granting any form of declaratory or equitable relief that would materially affect other JDUYHC LLC. users or the operation of the platform, may be appealed by either party under the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure. The JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure can be found at: https://www.jamsadr.com/adr-rules-procedures/.
17.10 Bulk Arbitration. To improve efficiency, if 20 or more similar arbitration claims against JDYHC LLC. are submitted or assisted in being submitted by the same law firm, institution, or multiple law firms or institutions within 60 days , and comply with the above rules, JAMS shall consolidate these arbitration claims in accordance with the JAMS Rules by: (a) grouping the arbitration claims into groups of no more than 25 (if fewer than 25 claims remain after the above grouping, a separate final group shall be established); and (b) treating each group of arbitration claims as a separate arbitration, charging only one set of filing and administration fees per group, and appointing one arbitrator. For the avoidance of doubt, consolidation does not require all arbitration claims within the same group to produce the same award, nor does it affect your right to submit any evidence or arguments that you believe are relevant to your case, provided that such evidence or arguments comply with the JAMS Rules. You agree to cooperate in good faith with JDYHC LLC. and JAMS to implement this bulk resolution and fee arrangement.
17.11 By signing this arbitral claim, a party represents that, to the best of its knowledge and belief and after reasonable investigation, it proves that: (i) the arbitral claim is not made for any improper purpose, such as harassment, unnecessary delay, or unnecessarily increased costs of dispute resolution; (ii) its claims and other legal basis are supported by existing law, or there are reasonable grounds to extend, amend, overturn existing law, or enact new law; and (iii) its factual claims are supported by evidence, or, if clearly indicated, are likely to be supported by evidence given reasonable opportunity for further investigation or evidence gathering. The arbitrator has the authority to provide any relief or impose any sanctions for any party’s breach of this requirement, pursuant to Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure or any applicable state law.
Options and procedures for withdrawing from arbitration
17.12 If you have not previously agreed to the Arbitration Terms with respect to your use of our Services, you may opt out of the Arbitration Agreement by following the instructions below.

17.15 To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither you nor JDUYHC LLC. shall have the right to initiate, consolidate, join, or coordinate disputes against other individuals or entities, or participate in any class arbitration, or act as a representative in any arbitration or litigation concerning any dispute. You may only participate in arbitration or litigation in your own name for your own losses. Under this Agreement, you may not participate in any proposed class action, class arbitration, private prosecutor action, whistleblower action, or any representative action, or otherwise represent or act on behalf of or for the benefit of any other person, in any claim or action of any kind. You and JDUYHC LLC. both waive their respective rights to participate in class actions. By accepting this Agreement, you waive your right to participate in any past, ongoing, or future class action or any other consolidated or representative action, including any action that existed as of the date of your agreement to this Agreement.
17.16 Severability. This Agreement shall apply only to the extent permitted by law. If any provision of this Agreement or any part thereof is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining parts of this Agreement, which shall continue to be in full force and effect. To the maximum extent permitted by law and equity, the parties agree that any such provision may be modified or otherwise interpreted by a court adjudicating any dispute to achieve the parties' intentions and to be consistent with the overall purpose and intent of this Agreement, and may be deemed to have been replaced by an enforceable provision that most closely approximates the intent of the unenforceable provision.
