Governing Law and Venue
This TOU is governed by the laws of the State of California, United States of America, without reference to its principles of conflict of laws. The Site may not be used or accessed from or in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of this TOU, including without limitation this paragraph.

EIF has adopted and implemented a policy that provides for the termination in appropriate circumstances of the accounts of users who repeatedly infringe copyrights or violate the intellectual property rights of others. EIF will terminate user accounts that have been the subject of three (3) separate DMCA notices. In the event a user’s materials are removed due to a DMCA notice and then subsequently restored due to the filing of a DMCA counter-notification, EIF will treat the underlying DMCA notice as withdrawn.
EIF reserves the right to terminate user accounts that are the subject of fewer than three (3) DMCA notices in appropriate circumstances, such as where the user has a history of violating or willfully disregarding the intellectual property rights of others, as determined in EIF’s discretion.
