17.4 For the purpose of this Section, “suspicious wagering activity” shall refer to where we have reasonable grounds to believe that a bet or a number of Bets have been placed under suspicious circumstances. Suspicious betting shall include, but not be limited to:

17.4.1 Where there is an inordinate frequency and/or highly unusual pattern of Bets (by comparison with betting norms) placed on the same selection in a short space of time;

17.4.2 Where there is an inordinate frequency and/or highly unusual pattern of Bets placed on the same selection(s) and where the theoretical probability of said selection(s) winning at the time of Bet(s) placement, based on the odds offered on the selection(s) at the time of Bet placement, is largely inconsistent with the theoretical probability of the same selection(s) winning calculated using their starting prices;

17.4.3 Where the integrity of an event (or events) has been called into question, including, for example, but not limited to where one (or more) of the participants in an event displays exceptional form which we reasonably believe was known to you or someone connected to you at the time of Bet placement but was concealed from the public generally in order to gain an unfair advantage in any Bets placed on that event (or those events);

17.4.4 Where we have reasonable grounds to suspect that a bet or a string of connected Bets were placed robotically, by automated means, or otherwise than through the Account holder placing each bet manually via their Account;

17.4.5 Where we reasonably believe that you have used unfair external factors or influences connected with the event(s) the subject of any Bet(s);

17.4.6 Where we reasonably suspect that you have opened duplicate Accounts or where we reasonably suspect that second or subsequent Accounts are under common control with your Account with a view to concealing the true worth, nature or pattern of Bets placed by you or on your behalf, even if second or subsequent Accounts are opened under different names;

17.4.7 Where we otherwise believe, acting reasonably, that you are acting in concert with others or that you are acting other than on your own behalf; or

17.4.8 Where we reasonably believe that Bets have been placed from a spoofed location.

17.5 In the case of any of the activities contemplated herein, and without restricting our ability to rely on other remedies that may be available to us, we may, acting reasonably, and depending on the circumstances:

17.5.1 Request such further information from you as may reasonably be required by us to investigate whether the Bet or Bets constitute suspicious betting for the purpose of Section 17.4.

17.5.2 Suspend or withhold payment of any amounts (or any parts thereof) pending the receipt by us of satisfactory evidence from you in order for us to determine (acting reasonably) that a bet does not constitute a suspicious bet as such term is referred to in Section 17.4. For example, but without limitation, where we suspect that a bet or a string of connected Bets may have been placed robotically or by automated means, we may require you to provide reasonable evidence that each bet was placed manually by you via your Account. You further acknowledge and accept that we reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to collect and process any information in connection with your betting patterns, personal data, depositing of funds and any other related information and inquiries that will help us to investigate any suspected violation of these Terms of Service;

17.5.3 Suspend or withhold payment of any amounts (or any parts thereof), usually for no longer than thirty (30) business days but where relevant for such longer period of time as may reasonably be required (for example, pending any investigations by Hard Rock Digital, any sports governing body, a gambling regulator, a law enforcement authority or any other third party);

17.5.4 Void a bet or a string of connected Bets (including for example multiples) prior to the event. Where possible, we shall communicate to you in writing in advance that the bet(s) has (or have) been voided prior to the (first) event the subject of the bet(s);

17.5.5 Calculate any winnings based on the starting price of the event(s) the subject of the Bet(s). Where possible, we shall communicate to you in writing in advance that any Bet(s) will be settled at the starting price; or

17.5.6 Where there is an inordinate frequency and/or unusual pattern of Bets placed on the same selection(s) in a short space of time and where we have reasonable grounds to suspect that the Bets are connected Bets, limit the payment of winnings in respect of those Bets (and where necessary with such limitation applied across multiple accounts) to the maximum payout for individual Bets on any particular market or markets as set out in the House Rules.

17.6 Where we have reasonable grounds to believe that you have participated in, or have been connected with, any type of suspicious betting, we shall use our reasonable efforts to investigate such matter, including, but not limited to, through the use of various collusion, suspicious betting, fraud and cheating detection practices which are used in the gambling industry.

17.7 We reserve the right to terminate an Account if we reasonably suspect any of the activities described in this Section to be in connection with that Account.

Section 28. NOTICES/PLAYER COMPLAINTS AND DISPUTES

Initial complaints and disputes shall be resolved in a manner consistent with Ohio Master Sports Gaming Rule 3775-16-21.

Section 28A. ARBITRATION

If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time the initial dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to the Player Complaints and Disputes process detailed in Section 28 above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration.

All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms (including their formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other, and/or your use of the Services, except for claims by the Hard Rock Digital for injunctive relief or claims for violations of the Hard Rock Digital’s intellectual property rights in the Services (“Excluded Claims”), shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the supplementary procedures for consumer- related disputes of the AAA, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court, or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The procedures and rules of the Federal Arbitration Act shall exclusively govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision.

The AAA’s rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, we will pay the additional cost. A request for payment of filing fees should be submitted to AAA along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and we will make arrangements to pay all necessary filing fees directly to AAA. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, we will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. The arbitration rules also permit you to recover attorneys’ fees in certain cases.

The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

Section 29. GOVERNING LAW

These Terms of Service, and any claim or cause of action arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, shall be governed, enforced, and construed under the applicable laws of Florida, without any waiver, or limitation, and without regard to conflict of laws principles that would require the application of any other laws.

Notwithstanding the above, Hard Rock Digital may initiate an action in any venue, including, but not limited to courts and agencies, e.g., the United States Patent & Trademark Office, to enforce, register, record, or affirm Hard Rock Digital’s or Hard Rock’s intellectual property rights.

Section 29A. NO CLASS ACTIONS
