LiftMySocial is not affiliated with and operates completely separate from Instagram, Facebook, any Instagram third-party partners, and any other social media platform in any way. It is your sole responsibility to comply with the rules and any regulations that you are subject to regarding your Instagram, Facebook, or any other social media service.
You use LiftMySocial at your own risk. LiftMySocial is not responsible for your actions and their consequences, and we are not liable if your Instagram account or any other social media account is locked, blocked, or banned for any reason.
We require your Instagram username and password to obtain required information for the Services. We do not store, give away, or otherwise distribute your password to any third parties. However, you should always keep in mind there is a risk of losing your Instagram account as you work with that account via our Services which are not officially recognized or approved by Instagram.
LiftMySocial does not guarantee the amount of followers, likes, or comments that you will receive by use of the Services. Your social media growth is dependent on various factors, and LiftMySocial is not responsible if the results do not meet your expectations.
LiftMySocial attempts to bring as many real users to your account as possible, but we are unable to fully protect you from spam, fake, and inactive followers on social media.

Jurisdiction/Disputes
This Agreement and all matters arising out of, or otherwise relating to, this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of Florida. The sum of this paragraph is that any and all litigation permitted under this Agreement must be, without exception, initiated in Florida.
All Parties to this Agreement agree that all litigation permitted under this Agreement shall be tried and/or litigated exclusively in the courts located in Orange County, Florida.
The parties agree to exclusive jurisdiction in, and only in, Florida.
The parties agree to exclusive venue in, and only in, Orange County, Florida.
The parties additionally agree that this choice of venue and forum is mandatory and not permissive in nature, thereby precluding any possibility of litigation between the parties with respect to, or arising out of, this Agreement in a jurisdiction other than that specified in this paragraph.
All parties hereby waive any right to assert objections to venue with respect to any litigation permitted under this Agreement.
All parties stipulate that the courts located in Florida shall have personal jurisdiction over them for the purpose of any litigation permitted under this Agreement that is not otherwise subject to the arbitration provisions, infra.
Each party hereby authorizes and accepts service of process sufficient for personal jurisdiction in any action against it, as contemplated by this paragraph by registered or certified mail, Federal Express, proof of delivery or return receipt requested, to the parties address for the giving of notices as set forth in this Agreement.
Any final judgment rendered against a party in any action or proceeding shall be conclusive as to the subject of such final judgment and may be enforced in other jurisdictions in any manner provided by law if such enforcement becomes necessary.
Both parties acknowledge that remedies at law may be inadequate to provide an aggrieved party with full compensation in the event of the other party's breach, and that in any litigation permitted under this Agreement, an aggrieved party shall therefore be entitled to seek injunctive relief, in addition to seeking all other remedies available at law or in equity.
Arbitration Provisions
If there is a dispute between the Parties arising out of or otherwise relating to this Agreement, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to attempt to resolve the dispute. If the Parties are unable to resolve the dispute through direct negotiations, then, except as otherwise provided herein, either Party must submit the issue to binding arbitration in accordance with the then-existing Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitral Claims shall include, but are not limited to, contract and tort claims of all kinds, and all claims based on any federal, state or local law, statute, or regulation, excepting only claims by us for intellectual property violations, actions for injunctions, attachment, garnishment, and other equitable relief. The arbitration shall be confidential. The arbitration shall be conducted in Orange County, Florida, and conducted by a single arbitrator, knowledgeable in Internet and e-Commerce disputes. The arbitrator shall be willing to execute an oath of neutrality.
The Arbitrator shall have no authority to award any punitive or exemplary damages; certify a class action; add any parties; vary or ignore the provisions of this Agreement; and shall be bound by governing and applicable law. The arbitrator shall render a written opinion setting forth all material facts and the basis of his or her decision within thirty (30) days of the conclusion of the arbitration proceeding. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY IN REGARD TO ARBITRAL CLAIMS.
There shall be no waiver of the right to arbitration unless such waiver is provided affirmatively and in writing by the waiving Party to the other Party. There shall be no implied waiver of this right to arbitration. No acts, including the filing of litigation, shall be construed as a waiver or a repudiation of the right to arbitrate.
