To the fullest extent allowed by law, these Terms, AngryPages, and any dispute involving AngryPages are governed by California law, excluding conflict-of-law rules.
AngryPages is a California-based expressive platform, diary marketplace, creator marketplace, paid-access marketplace, and publishing system. Users, creators, buyers, advertisers, partners, requesters, and others who access, use, submit to, buy from, sell through, advertise through, request support from, or otherwise do business with AngryPages agree that their use of AngryPages is use of a California platform under California-facing terms.
To the fullest extent allowed by law, any dispute involving AngryPages must be brought and resolved in Santa Clara County, California, unless a separate signed agreement, checkout term, creator agreement, advertiser agreement, enterprise agreement, or other written agreement expressly requires another lawful dispute process.
If a dispute is filed in court, the exclusive forum is:
- the Superior Court of California, County of Santa Clara; or
- the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, if federal jurisdiction exists.
Each user, creator, buyer, advertiser, partner, requester, and other person who accesses, uses, submits to, buys from, sells through, advertises through, requests support from, or otherwise does business with AngryPages consents to California law, Santa Clara County venue, California personal jurisdiction, and the California forum stated above, and waives objections based on inconvenient forum, distance, non-California residence, or preference for another state's law, to the fullest extent allowed by law.
Nothing in these Terms waives AngryPages' rights, defenses, privileges, immunities, or remedies under the U.S. Constitution, the California Constitution, California anti-SLAPP law, Section 230, copyright law, DMCA safe-harbor procedures, trademark law, privacy law, contract law, arbitration law, platform-curation doctrine, editorial judgment, common-law defenses, statutory defenses, or any other applicable protection.
AngryPages expressly preserves the right to invoke California anti-SLAPP protections for claims arising from speech, editorial judgment, public-interest material, diary content, creator expression, commentary, criticism, satire, parody, media discussion, platform moderation, content labeling, content tiering, publication, refusal to publish, restriction, removal, preservation, or other expressive activity.
AngryPages also preserves all protections available under Section 230 for third-party content and good-faith platform moderation, including the right to host, classify, restrict, remove, preserve, label, summarize, excerpt, sell access to, or otherwise process third-party content without adopting every statement as AngryPages' own.
AngryPages may still seek injunctive, emergency, equitable, intellectual-property, privacy, adult-content-record, payment-system, security, or platform-protection relief in any court or forum where such relief is necessary or appropriate.
