You may find information about providers of these protections on the Internet by searching “parental control protection” or similar terms.
4.3 Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM) Prohibited. The Company prohibits content involving minors on the Portal. The Company only allows visual media of consenting adults for consenting adults on the Portal. If you see any visual media, real or simulated, depicting minors engaged in sexual activity within the Portal or that is otherwise exploitative of children, please promptly report this to the Company at support@kinkoncommand.com. Please include with your report all appropriate evidence, including the date and time of identification. The Company will promptly investigate all reports and take proper action. The Company fully cooperates with any law enforcement agency investigating alleged child exploitation or child sexual abuse material.
- Territory
5.1 Territory. Each Membership is for use within a limited territory that excludes all jurisdictions where the content is illegal (“Territory“). Access to the Portal might not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. The Company is not making any statement that the Portal or its content is accessible or appropriate in your jurisdiction. If you access the Portal, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for complying with all local laws.
5.2 Location Breach. If the Company detects a Membership is bought or used outside the Territory, the Company may, at its discretion, disable Membership so the Login will not work and terminate this agreement for breach without any refund of Fees already paid.
- Accessing the Portal. The Portal allows you to buy access to digital content, including videos for streaming. To view the digital content, you will need a personal computer, tablet, phone, or other device that meets the Portal’s system and compatibility requirements and a high-speed internet connection. The Company may withdraw or amend this Portal, and any service or material it provides on the Portal, in its sole discretion without notice. The Company will not be liable if, for any reason, any part of the Portal is unavailable at any time or for any period. From time to time, the Company may restrict access to some parts of the Portal, or the entire Portal, to users, including registered users. You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Portal.
- Your Account
7.1 Account Creation. You must complete the registration process by providing the Company with accurate information as prompted by the registration form. You must provide a valid email address and a password. Your password should be unique (meaning that it is different from those you use for other websites) and must comply with the Portal’s technical requirements for the composition of passwords. By creating an account, you state to the Company that (a) all account registration information you provide is your own and is accurate; (b) if you previously had an account on the Portal, the Company did not suspend or terminate that account for breach of this agreement; and (c) you are creating an account for your own personal use, and you will not sell, rent, or transfer your account to any third party.
7.2 Responsibility for Account. You are responsible for keeping your Login secure and confidential. You must not distribute your Login to others. If you do, this will result in an immediate termination of your Membership as set out in section 10.2. Further, you are responsible for all activities that occur under your Login. You will promptly notify the Company of any unauthorized use of your Login or any other breach of security. The Company may disable any username, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by you or provided by the Company, at any time in its sole discretion for any reason or no reason, including if, in its opinion, you have violated any part of this agreement.
7.3 Liability for Account Misuse. The Company will not be liable for any loss that you may incur as a result of someone else using your Login, either with or without your knowledge. You could be held liable for losses incurred by the Company or another person due to someone else using your Login.
7.4 Use of Other Accounts. You must not use anyone else’s Login at any time.
7.5 Account Security. The Company cares about the integrity and security of your personal information. But the Company cannot guarantee that unauthorized persons will never be able to defeat the Portal’s security measures or use any personal information you provide to the Company for improper purposes. Therefore, you acknowledge that you provide your personal information at your own risk.
7.6 Communication Preferences. By registering for an account, you consent to receive electronic communications from the Company relating to your account. Communications may involve sending emails to your email address provided during registration or posting communications on the Portal. Communications will include notices about your account (e.g., payment authorizations, change in password or payment method, confirmation emails, and other transactional information) and are part of your relationship with the Company. You acknowledge that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that the Company sends you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that these communications be in writing. The Company recommends that you keep copies of electronic communications by printing a paper copy or saving an electronic copy. You also consent to receive certain other communications from the Company, including newsletters about new features and content, special offers, promotional announcements, and customer surveys via email or other methods. You acknowledge that communications you receive from the Company may contain sexually explicit material unsuitable for minors. If you no longer want to receive certain non-transactional communications, please review the Privacy Policy regarding opting out of marketing communications.
- Memberships and Payments
8.1 Fees and Membership Information. The Portal may offer various types of Memberships of different terms (ex: monthly, 6 months, yearly) (each, a “Membership Term“) and each with different Fees. The Company accepts payment of Fees via the Payment Methods identified on the Portal before checkout. Unless the Portal indicates otherwise, User must have a valid Payment Method to make any purchase. Users are liable for Fees for Membership including applicable taxes, bank fees, and currency fluctuations. Each Membership Term (defined below in section 8) offered will have its own Fee indicated during the joining process. Company will rebill at the Fee and at the frequency indicated on the receipt sent to the User’s email address. Fees are subject to change due to applicable laws and taxes; if you do not cancel within 30 days then you are deemed to have accepted the change in Fee. The Company may adjust Fees for Memberships, Individual Scene Purchases, and any other product and services offered to Users, at any time as it may determine in its sole discretion. The Company does not provide price protection or refunds in the event of a price reduction or promotional offering.
8.2 Auto-Renewal. Your Membership will continue for the Membership Term and automatically renew for additional prepaid periods of the same length at the rates in effect at the time you originally signed up until cancelled. Users must cancel their Membership forty-eight hours (48hrs) before it renews each term to avoid billing of the next term’s Fees to their Payment Method. Until cancelled, the User authorizes the Company to continue charging the User’s Payment Method to pay: (i) Fees for Membership; (ii) all purchases of other products, services, and entertainment provided by the Portal; and (iii) other liabilities of User to the Company or any third party. Should you wish to cancel or terminate your Membership at any time, you may contact Client Relations with notice to cancel your Membership. Users may complete a form located at https://www.famesupport.com/ or contact Client Relations directly. Please see section 10 below for further details.
8.3 Delayed Transactions. If a User’s Payment Method was declined, the Company may attempt to process the Payment Method again under the same conditions as initiated by the Users, within seven days of the User’s first attempt to purchase their Membership. Where the Payment Method is approved in such a circumstance, the User will receive an email confirming the successful completion of their transaction along with their username and password details. The User’s next rebill will be attempted on their initial rebill date. The Company reserves the right to change the Fee of the rebill or of the initial transaction to a lesser amount with the obligation to continue the User’s Membership at the original rebill Fee, which shall take effect as of the next rebill unless the User cancels before that rebill, or at the initial Payment Method Fee to successfully complete the User’s purchase of their Membership. In the event of an unsuccessful recurring payment, an administrative fee of up to $2 may be charged to maintain an active Membership until the full Membership Fee can be processed successfully.
- Termination and Cancellation
9.1 Termination and Cancellation by the User. Users may cancel or terminate their Membership at any time and without cause by providing Client Relations with notice to cancel their Membership. Users may complete a form located at https://www.famesupport.com/ or contact Client Relations directly. Users are liable for all Fees incurred on the Membership until 48 hours after notification of cancellation is received and acknowledged by the Company’s Client Relations. It is the User’s responsibility to ensure notification is adequately provided to the Company. All notification for cancellation should include full name, email address, and where applicable, the last four digits of the Payment Method.
9.2 Termination by the Company. The Company may suspend, disable, or terminate your access to the Portal (or any part of it) for any reason, including but not limited to if it determines that you have breached this agreement, you engaged in fraud, you fail to comply with the Company’s reasonable requirements (including but not limited to undergoing age verification and similar checks), that your conduct would tend to damage the Company’s reputation and goodwill, or that your conduct would be deemed to be harassment (Harassing conduct may include epithets, slurs or negative stereotyping; threatening, intimidating or hostile acts; denigrating jokes; and written or graphic material that denigrates or shows hostility or aversion toward an individual) to any employment or representative of the Company.
9.3 Effect of Termination. On termination, your right to access the Portal and all licenses granted by the Company terminates. The Company may block your email and IP address to prevent further access. Termination of your access to the Portal will not relieve you of any obligations arising or accruing before termination or limit any liability that you otherwise may have to the Company or any third party.
9.4 California Residents. For Users residing in California, if a User has exercised their right to delete their information, the Company will be unable to assist the User regarding notice of unauthorized use of the Services.
9.5 Survival. This agreement’s provisions that by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, and limitations of liability.
- Billing Disputes, Refunds, and Chargebacks
10.1 Billing Disputes. If you believe that the Company has charged your Payment Method in error, you must notify the Company in writing no later than 30 days after you receive the billing statement in which the error first appeared. If you fail to notify the Company in writing of a dispute within this period, you waive any disputed charges. You must submit any billing disputes in writing through support@kinkoncommand.com and include a detailed statement describing the nature and amount of the disputed charges. The Company will correct any mistakes in a receipt and add or credit them against your future payments.
10.2 Refunds. Fees are non-refundable once the Login details have been used on the Portal. Non-use of a Membership or inability of User to access the Portal through no fault of the Company are not grounds for a refund of Fees. There are no refunds of Fees or credits for partially used periods. If the Company issues a refund in its sole discretion, the Company will issue that refund in the form of a credit to the Payment Method used to make the original purchase. The Company will not process refunds in the form of cash, check, or free services. All refunds will be issued within ten days of communication between the User and the Company’s Client Relations department. The provision of a refund in one instance does not entitle you to a refund in the future for similar instances, nor does it require the Company to issue refunds in the future under any circumstance. For all billing inquiries, you may contact support@kinkoncommand.com
10.3 Chargebacks. The Company carefully investigates all chargebacks, and may pursue various methods of challenge, including but not limited to representation, where the Company deems it appropriate to do so. The Company may prevent future purchases with the Portal and its affiliates in the event of a chargeback. Chargebacks as well as any action taken by a User made to unlawfully or unreasonably obtain goods or services from the Portal will constitute a breach of contract and will not be tolerated. The User will remain responsible for the consequences and expenses caused by such a breach of contract.

All content, features, functionality, and other materials found on the Portal, including all visual interfaces, graphics, information, software (including source code and object code), text, displays, images, photos, videos, and audio, and the design, selection, and arrangement of them (collectively, “Materials“) are owned by the Company, its licensors, or other providers of those Materials.

19.1 Unless caused by gross negligence or intentional misconduct, the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, content providers, and service providers will not be liable to you for any direct, indirect, special (including so-called consequential damages), statutory, punitive, or exemplary damages arising out of or relating to your access or your inability to access the Portal or its content. This exclusion applies regardless of the theory of liability and even if you told the Company or it knew or should have known about the possibility of damages.
19.2 The Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, content providers, and service providers will not be liable to you for any damages for (1) personal injury, (2) pain and suffering, (3) emotional distress, (4) loss of revenue, (5) loss of profits, (6) loss of business or anticipated savings, (7) loss of use, (8) loss of goodwill, (9) loss of data, (10) loss of privacy, or (11) computer failure related to your access of or your inability to access the Portal or the content.

The Company’s maximum liability to you for any claim will not exceed the greater of $200 and the amount you have paid to the Company for the applicable purchase out of which liability arose, even if that remedy fails of its essential purpose.
- Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542-California Residents Only. For the releases of liability set out in this agreement, you acknowledge that you understand the consequences of entering into the general release and discharge of all known and unknown claims as stated in this agreement and that you are familiar with the provisions of section 1542 of the California Civil Code, which provides that:
A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.
You waive all rights under section 1542 and any other federal or state statutes or laws of similar effect.
- Scope of Disclaimers, Exclusions, and Limitations. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations stated in sections 18, 19 and 20 apply to the greatest extent allowed by law, but no more. The Company does not intend to deprive you of any mandatory protections provided to you by law. Because some jurisdictions may prohibit the disclaimer of some warranties, the exclusion of some damages, or other matters, one or more of the disclaimers, exclusions, or limitations might not apply to you.
- Indemnification
22.1 In General. You will pay the Company, its directors, officers, employees, agents, contractors, subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, content providers, and service providers (“Indemnified Parties“) for any loss of an Indemnified Party that is caused by any of the following: (a) your access of or conduct on the Portal; (b) your breach of this agreement; (c) your violation of rights of any person, including intellectual property, publicity, and privacy rights; (d) your violation of any applicable law; (e) your tortious acts or omissions; or (f) your criminal acts or omissions. But you are not required to pay if the loss was caused by the Indemnified Party’s intentional misconduct.
22.2 Definitions. “Loss” means an amount that the Indemnified Party is legally responsible for or pays in any form. Amounts include, for example, a judgment, a settlement, a fine, damages, injunctive relief, staff compensation, a decrease in property value, and expenses for defending against a claim for a loss (including fees for legal counsel, expert witnesses, and other advisers). A loss can be tangible or intangible; can arise from bodily injury, property damage, or other causes; can be based on tort, breach of contract, or any other theory of recovery; and includes incidental, direct, and consequential damages. A loss is “caused by” an event if the loss would not have happened without the event, even if the event is not a proximate cause of the loss.
22.3 Indemnified Party’s Duty to Notify. The Indemnified Party will notify you before the 30th day after the Indemnified Party knows or should reasonably have known of a claim for a loss that you might be compelled to pay. But the Indemnified Party’s failure to timely notify you does not end your obligation, except if that failure prejudices your ability to defend or mitigate losses.
22.4 Legal Defense of a Claim. The Indemnified Party has control over defending a claim for a loss (including settling it) unless the Indemnified Party directs you to control the defense. If the Indemnified Party directs you to control the defense, you will not settle any litigation without the Indemnified Party’s written consent if the settlement (1) imposes a penalty or limitation on the Indemnified Party, (2) admits the Indemnified Party’s fault, or (3) does not fully release the Indemnified Party from liability. You and the Indemnified Party will cooperate in good faith on a claim.
22.5 No Exclusivity. The Indemnified Parties’ rights under this section 23 do not affect other rights they might have.
- Governing Law and Jurisdiction
23.1 Delaware law governs all adversarial proceedings arising out of this agreement or access or use of the Portal. This agreement’s predominant purpose is providing services and licensing access to intellectual property and not a “sale of goods.” The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not govern this agreement, the application of which is expressly excluded.
23.2 Except for disputes subject to arbitration, all disputes arising out of or relating to the Portal or this agreement will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the state of Delaware. Each party hereby submits to the personal jurisdiction of the courts of the state of Delaware, to resolve all disputes not subject to arbitration. Each party hereby waives any right to seek another forum or venue because of improper or inconvenient forum.
- Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration
24.1 Arbitration
(a) You and Pico Entertainment LLP. are agreeing to give up any rights to litigate claims in a court or before a jury, or to participate in a class action or representative action with respect to a claim. Other rights that you would have if you went to court may also be unavailable or may be limited in arbitration. Any claim, dispute, or controversy (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise, whether pre-existing, present, or future, and including statutory, consumer protection, common law, intentional tort, injunctive, and equitable claims) between you and the Company arising from or relating in any way to your use of the Portal or the Services, will be resolved exclusively and finally by binding arbitration.
(b) Arbitration Resolution Services, Inc. (ARS) (or a similar online dispute resolution provider if ARS is not available) will administer the arbitration under its rules available at www.arbresolutions.com, then in effect, except as modified by this section 25.1. The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section 25.1. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to arbitrability or enforceability of this arbitration provision, including any unconscionability challenge or any other challenge that the arbitration provision or the agreement is void, voidable, or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator will be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity. Any award of the arbitrator will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. If you prevail on any claim that affords the Prevailing Party attorneys’ fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to you under the standards for fee shifting provided by law.
(c) You may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide the Company with written notice of your intention do so within 60 days of the date your claim arose. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.
(d) You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, neither you nor Pico Entertainment LLP. will be entitled to join or consolidate claims by or against other Users in court or in arbitration or otherwise participate in any claim as a class representative, class member, or in a private attorney general capacity. The arbitral tribunal will not consolidate more than one person’s claims and will not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitral tribunal has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
(e) If any provision of this section 25.1 is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed, and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
24.2 Recovery of Expenses. In any proceedings between the parties arising out of this agreement or relating to the subject matter of this agreement, the Prevailing Party will be entitled to recover from the other party, besides any other relief awarded, all expenses that the Prevailing Party incurs in those proceedings, including legal fees and expenses. For purposes of this section 24.2, “Prevailing Party” means, for any proceeding, the party in whose favor an award is rendered, except that if in those proceedings the award finds in favor of one party on one or more claims or counterclaims and in favor of the other party on one or more other claims or counterclaims, neither party will be the Prevailing Party. If any proceedings are voluntarily dismissed or are dismissed as part of the settlement of that dispute, neither party will be the Prevailing Party in those proceedings.
24.3 Jury Trial Waiver. Each party waives its right to a jury trial in proceedings arising out of or relating to this agreement. Either party may enforce this waiver up to and including the first day of trial.
24.4 Limitation on Time to Bring Claims. A party will not bring a claim arising out of or relating to the Portal or this agreement more than one year after the cause of action arose. Any claim brought after one year is barred.
