We’re so glad you want to take care of your OG doll and her things. For doll faces and bodies, simply wash the surface gently until clean with a wet, soapy cloth, and then air dry at room temperature. For clothing and accessories, spot clean with cold water and a mild soap, and then air dry. Do no put any OG doll, clothing, or accessory in the washing machine, dryer or near any direct heat source.
For best results, it is recommended to use a wire brush.

So glad you asked! Our Where to Find page will help you find a convenient retailer online or nearby who carries OG dolls and accessories.
We try to change our dolls and accessories often to keep up with the latest styles. While this keeps our dolls and accessories fresh and current, it sometimes makes it hard to know which items are in stock and where. It is possible that you are seeing something on our site that is no longer available or, sometimes, not available yet. We're sorry if this causes any inconvenience.
To avoid paper waste and the resources involved in transporting catalogs, we’ve created this website as a Look Book where you can discover our items. Some of the dolls, fashions and accessories are available in stores right now. Others are from our past or future. Either way, it's fun to discover and play. If you have any questions about anything you see on our website, you can reach out to us on social media: www.facebook.com/ogdolls
The store where you purchased the toy should be able to help you with an exchange or return. If not, then please fill out the following form to receive assistance from our customer service team: www.battathelp.com
Be sure to include as much information as you can, including required fields, in order to receive a response. Please note that response times vary depending on the time of year, however you can expect a 2-3 business day turnaround in most cases.
Our toys are designed in Canada and the USA, and then manufactured in China.
Affordability is a big goal of ours. Our production partners in China allow us to offer our high-quality dolls, doll clothing and accessories at prices most can afford. We have strong relationships with our production team overseas. We also conduct random on-site audits of factories to ensure the highest standards are met in manufacturing and in employee health, safety and human rights. We are happy that Target, our largest retail supplier, requires an equally firm commitment to human rights from any brand they carry.
Battat is a family-run business based in Montreal, Canada, and Plattsburgh, NY, that has been making family-focused products for over 100 years. Through innovative thinking, unique design and a steadfast commitment to safety and reliability, Battat has created some of the world’s favorite toys.
Working at OG is the coolest experience! We work hard over many months to get our product to be just right, in hopes that girls all over the world will enjoy playing with the line. We get to be creative all day long and immerse ourselves into this wonderful doll world. Often times we have to remind ourselves that OG and her friends are make believe!
YES! We are so glad you asked, because we have been relentless in choosing the most recycled and recyclable materials we can to package our toys. Reduce. Reuse. Recycle. It’s a way of life around here. We plan for reuse from the very beginning. Of course, that starts with using recycled materials. All of our boxes are made from recycled paper that is easily recycled again. Where possible, we create packaging that doubles as a toy. Next, we make sure all our packaging is recyclable. All of our boxes can be recycled again and again and again. And the plastic that holds our toys in place so they arrive at your house safely? We’ve carefully chosen and invested in #1 PET plastic because it’s the most easily and widely recycled, and is even able to become polar fleece in its next life. (Meaning today’s package could become tomorrow’s mittens). On top of all that, the inks we use in our packaging are soy-based and our varnishes water-based, which is a lot more friendly for the environment. As you can tell, we poured our hearts into making as little impact as possible on our planet. We wouldn't have it any other way. (And we know you wouldn't either).
We make our dolls, fashions and accessories sturdy, so they can be collected and saved, or recycled the old-fashioned way – by being passed from one girl to another. Tired of an outfit? Consider having your friends over for a OG swap. You can all bring outfits you've had for a while and trade them for outfits your friends have had for a while. Suddenly, what's old is new!
Rest assured that all OG dolls, fashions and accessories go through stringent testing procedures that meet or exceed all U.S. safety standards, all regulations regarding age guidelines, all Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) directives and guidelines, and all regulations of the American Society for Testing and Materials. We then retest products with our own engineers, both on-site during the manufacturing process and again before they are shipped from the factory. Tests, tests and more tests.
We want to hear about any concern or safety thoughts you might have. Please fill out the following form, here: www.battathelp.com with the words SAFETY ISSUE in the subject line so we can make it our first priority.
Be sure to include as much information as you can, including required fields, in order to receive a response. Please note that response times vary depending on the time of year, however you can expect a 2-3 business day turnaround in most cases.

This is the Privacy Policy of Battat Incorporated and its subsidiary companies (collectively “Battat,” “we,” or “us”), which applies to the website located at ourgeneration.com, its affiliate sites, subdomains, mobile versions, and any associated applications (collectively, the “Website”).
In conjunction with the Terms of Use, this Privacy Policy sets out the basis on which any personal information you provide will be collected, processed, used and stored by us. Please read it carefully. By visiting this Website, you are accepting and consenting to the practices described in this Privacy Policy, which may be amended in our sole discretion from time to time. If you use the Website after we have published such changes, you will be agreeing to be bound by those changes. If you do not agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy at any time, you should not use the Website.
First and foremost, we want you to know that the protection of children, all children, is always our first consideration. The Website is a fun, entertaining, engaging place for fans of Our Generation dolls to come together as a community and share and experience all that Our Generation has to offer. For that reason, we ensure that our Privacy Policy and our information collection practices adhere to the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Rule (“COPPA”). For more information about COPPA, please visit: https://www.ftc.gov/enforcement/rules/rulemaking-regulatory-reform-proceedings/childrens-online-privacy-protection-rule.
The Internet is a tool, and your involvement in your child’s use of the Internet can make a major difference. We encourage all parents to actively participate in their children’s Internet usage by providing them with guidance to help ensure that they have a safe and rewarding online experience. We encourage parents and children to visit and review the Federal Trade Commission website: www.OnGuardOnline.gov for tips on protecting children’s privacy online. Internet safety should be important to everyone, and we hope you take it as seriously as we do.
You must be at least the age of Majority (18 in the United States; older in some jurisdictions) to register with us. Please do not provide any of your information to us if you are under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect or maintain any PII about anyone under age of 13, nor is this information knowingly used by us for any marketing or promotional purposes. Though we intentionally avoid collecting PII from a child, Non PII may be collected from a child (e.g., a child’s list of things she/he “loves”).
If we become aware that you are under the age of Majority and are attempting to or have submitted personal information via the Website, we will not accept such information and we will take steps to remove such information from our records. This may involve us having to access and verify your age and other relevant details.
This Privacy Policy explains the following:
1. What information we collect about you and why;
2. How we use information about you;
3. How your information may be shared;
4. How we store and process information about you;
5. When and how we communicate with you;
6. How long we may keep personal information about you;
7. How you can opt-out from receiving communications from us;
8. Analysis tools and our use of cookies;
9. Information over the Internet and other websites;
10. Offensive or inappropriate content;
11. Legal disclaimer; and
12. How to contact us.
We may collect two types of information: personally identifiable information (“PII”) and information that is not personally identifiable (“Non PII”).
A. What PII Do We Collect?
• When you register with us, we ask for information such as your name, email address, postal address, contact details or notes of interest related to our Website. E-mail addresses will only be accepted from people who are of sufficient age to submit this information. For more information about parental involvement, please see Section A above titled, “Children.”
• We may capture user information when users send us questions or comments via e-mail. Information collected in this manner will only be used to contact the user and/or respond to the user’s inquiry/issue. Sending us an e-mail will not enroll you on our e-mail list unless you specifically request it.
• For purchases made on the Website, a third-party payment processor may collect your name, email address, postal address, contact details and credit card information. By making a purchase, you agree that these third-parties may access and use your PII. You also agree that the access and use of your PII is governed by their privacy policies. We are not responsible or liable for the content, activities or privacy policies of any third-party website. Accordingly, please refer to their respective privacy policies (see further below under “How we use information about you” and “How we store and process information about you”).
• For credit card transactions, Battat adds security by using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology. This means that the credit card information you send is encrypted by your computer, and then decrypted again on our side, preventing others from accessing your private information in between.
• At certain points where personal information is collected on our Website, there may be a box where you may indicate you would like to be on a mailing list to receive information about other Battat products and services and about ways to support Battat. This election box only appears in places where the department collecting personal information maintains such lists. At any time you can add or remove your name from a Battat list by contacting us at OGDolls@battatco.com.
• We may capture certain information automatically on our Website, including the user’s Internet protocol address, mobile device identification number, browser type, page access history, linking information, click stream data, page visits, page views, and/or website log files.
• We may also obtain your personal information through your use of social media such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube or Flickr, depending on your settings or the privacy policies of these social media services. To change your settings on these services, please refer to their respective privacy notices.
B. What Non PII Do We Collect?
For some of our online activities – such as polls, surveys, games or contests – We may ask users to provide information that is not personally identifiable, such as a first name (without a last name), a country of residence or a user’s favorite things. In addition, we may offer blogs or other features in which you may provide us with user-generated submissions (such as our “Wall of Hearts”). Collectively, the ways in which we collect Non PII are referred to as “Public Features.” Although we take measures to guard against users communicating personal information through the Public Features, such disclosure may occur depending upon how our users make use of the Public Features. If you use a Public Feature on this Website, and disclose PII, you should be aware that such information could be read, collected or used by other users. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these Public Features.
A. We may use the PII we collect in the following ways:
• to contact users with updates and relevant information about our products and services because they have signed up to do so through subscribing to OG Mail. If you would no longer like to receive promotional e-mails or other communications from us, please refer to the “How you can opt-out from receiving communications from us” Section below;
• to provide users with personalized offers, promotions, news, events and other information relevant to them because they have signed up to do so through subscribing to OG Mail;
• to quickly process user requests for information and to allow us to respond efficiently to user questions;
• to monitor Website statistics;
• to respond to or satisfy legal requirements, such as a court order, a subpoena, or a law enforcement agency’s or other public agency’s (including schools or children services) request;
• to help prevent the instigation of a crime, to help facilitate an investigation related to public safety, to help protect the safety of a child using our Website, to help protect the security or integrity of our Website, or to enable us to take precautions against liability;
• to provide information to service providers or such companies who provide support for the operations of our Website and who do not use or disclose the information for any other purpose;
• to administer a contest, promotion, survey, or other feature; and
• to allow us to disclose your information to the extent permitted by law, as described more fully below.
B. We may use Non PII in any of the ways identified above, as well as a variety of commercial and non-commercial ways in which we would never use PII.
For example, one Public Feature is our Wall of Hearts. Because Our Generation embodies the spirit, vision and aspirations of this generation of girls, we have created the Wall of Hearts to collect and share hearts that are created by the very same girls. Each heart is as unique and beautiful as the girl who creates it. If you create a heart on the Website, you are using a Public Feature. That means that the heart may be shared with others in ways that PII is not.
We may, for example, use the heart on our packages and the Website, or share the heart through one of our social media portals (including, but not limited to, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and Flickr). It may be used in screensavers, contests, promotions and other promotional activities. In other words, if you don’t want to give your heart to the world, please don’t submit it. In any case, the person who created the heart will only be identified by first name and what they love. No heart can be submitted for any use other than on our Website without additional consent of the user (or the user’s parent or legal guardian, if applicable).
Rest assured that as much as we enjoy sharing our dolls, their stories and the occasional cup of imaginary tea, we are very, very against sharing personal information without consent. If you give us your email address to get information from Our Generation about Our Generation, then that is exactly what you will get. We will not share your email address with anyone. Pinky swear.
Except as set forth below, we do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer to third parties our users’ PII unless we receive their consent. That being said, in the following situations, we may share PII with outside parties:
• Subsidiaries and Affiliates. We may transfer personally identifiable information to our subsidiaries and corporate affiliates;
• Website Consultants and Service Providers. We may disclose personal information to third party consultants and service providers (such as providers of hosting, support, maintenance; third party payment processing agencies; and remedial and repair services) to the extent that they require access to our databases, or the information contained in our databases, to service us and the Website;
• Enforcement of Rights/Security. We reserve the right to release personal information (i) when we are under legal compulsion to do so (e.g. we have received a subpoena) or we otherwise believe that the law requires us to do so, (ii) when we believe it is necessary to protect and/or enforce the rights, property interests, or our safety, the safety of our users, or the safety of others, or (iii) as we deem necessary to resolve disputes, troubleshoot problems, prevent fraud and otherwise enforce the Privacy Policy and other Website user agreements;
• Reorganization or Sale. In the event that we merge with or become a part of another organization, or in the event that we are sold, we sell all or substantially all of our assets, or we are otherwise reorganized, the information you provide will be one of the transferred assets to the acquiring or reorganized entity;
• To Help Protect Minor Users of Our Website. In the event that the safety of our users is threatened, and we are able to do something about that by sharing PII with third parties, we reserve the right to do so. This may be done to prevent the instigation of a crime, to help facilitate an investigation related to public safety, to help protect the safety of a child using our Website, to help protect the security or integrity of our Website, or to enable us to take precautions against liability;
• As Otherwise Allowed by Law. We may transfer personal information to third parties where we are expressly authorized by applicable law to do so;
• Aggregated Information. We may aggregate information that you provide with information provided by other individuals in such a manner that the information is not personally identifiable to you, and we may transfer that aggregated information to third parties;
• We may make available services such as blogs, message boards and chat functionality to which you are able to post information and materials. Please note that any information you disclose through such services or otherwise on the Website becomes public information, and may be available to visitors to the Website and to the general public. In addition, when you choose to make a posting on such services certain personal information will be available for other users to view. We urge you to exercise discretion and caution when deciding to disclose personal information about you, or any other information, on the Website. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE USE BY ANY THIRD PARTY OF ANY PERSONAL INFORMATION YOU VOLUNTARILY DISCLOSE THROUGH ANY SUCH SERVICES OR OTHERWISE ON THE WEBSITE; and
• With your express consent.
In order to communicate with you about local events, offers and opportunities and other news, the information that we collect from you may be transferred to, stored, used and processed by Battat or one of our service providers based in the United States, Canada or in other jurisdictions. Such entities may be engaged in, among other things: (i) preparing and sending newsletters to which you subscribe; (ii) the processing of payment details; and (iii) the provision of support services.
If you are visiting from the European Union or other regions with laws governing information collection and use, it may differ from United States laws. The laws of some countries may not provide the same levels of protection of personal information as your home country, particularly if you are resident in the European Union. By submitting information, you agree to the collection, transfer, storage, use and processing of information about you for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. When you provide personal information to us or our service providers or vendors, you consent to the processing of your information in the United States and other territories in which we operate. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that information about you is treated securely in accordance with this Privacy Policy, and that all information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our service providers.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE LAWS OF THE UNITED STATES TREAT YOUR INFORMATION IN A MANNER THAT MAY BE SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT FROM, AND LESS PROTECTIVE THAN, THE TREATMENT REQUIRED UNDER THE LAWS OF OTHER COUNTRIES AND JURISDICTIONS. IF YOU DO NOT WANT YOUR INFORMATION TRANSFERRED TO THE UNITED STATES, YOU SHOULD NOT SHARE YOUR INFORMATION WITH US, OR MAKE USE OF THIS WEBSITE.
TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LAW OF THE COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED, YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE TO REQUIRE US TO TREAT YOUR IDENTIFYING INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF ANY COUNTRY OR JURISIDICTION OTHER THAN THE UNITED STATES. HOWEVER, THE FOREGOING WAIVER MAY NOT BE LEGALLY BINDING IN SOME COUNTRIES, SUCH AS THE MEMBER STATES OF THE EUROPEAN UNION. TO THE EXTENT IT IS NOT LEGALLY BINDING IN THE COUNTRY IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED, THIS FOREGOING WAIVER DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.
We may use the information we collect to contact you by mail, email and telephone (including automated calls, and by SMS text messages and other multimedia electronic messages such as picture messaging).
We will not send you unsolicited premium rate SMS messages (which are SMS messages you pay to receive), although your service provider may impose a charge on any messages that you receive. Please check with your service provider for details.
You can unsubscribe from promotional emails and other commercial communications by following the instructions contained within the communication. Please note that due to marketing production schedules you may receive any messages already in production.
We will hold personal information about you on our systems for as long as is necessary for the relevant service, or as long as is set out in any relevant contract you hold with Battat, subject to any applicable laws and/or regulations. In the case that you wish to cancel your registration as a member of the Website once an account is deleted, people cannot use the personal information about you other than for administrative purposes, but it stays on the system for a period of one year for administration purposes before being deleted.
Where you contribute to the Website, we will generally only keep your content for as long as is reasonably required for the purpose(s) for which it was submitted.
At any time you can add or remove your name from a Battat list by contacting us at OGDolls@battatco.com.
We will endeavor to comply with your request as soon as reasonably practicable. Please keep in mind that if you opt-out of receiving promotional messages from this Website, we will continue to send you transactional messages and important account-related information regarding this Website or products or services offered through this Website.
We may use cookies, log files, clear gifs, and/or similar devices to identify you, to keep track of the user’s interactions with the Website, and to and enhance certain activities available on the Website. These devices are small text or other electronic files that are used for user-identification purposes, record-keeping purposes, and to increase the ease of use of the websites. We may use persistent or not-persistent cookies. Users can remove or reject persistent cookies by following the directions provided in their Internet browser’s “help” file. If a user removes a persistent cookie or rejects persistent cookies, the functionality of the Website, or any part thereof, may be impaired or unavailable.
Third-party advertisers on the Website may use cookies and other technologies in their advertisements for statistical purposes; we have no control over cookies placed on the Website by third parties.
The Internet is a global network and, therefore, there are times when information about you travels globally and may not always be completely secure. If you provide us with information over the Internet, this will be at your own risk. By using the Website, you agree and authorize us to process information in this way. However, please be assured that we use commercially reasonable procedures and security features to prevent unauthorized access to information about you.
In an attempt to provide you with increased value, the Website may contain links to third party sites. These linked websites have separate and independent privacy policies or may have no privacy policy at all. We are not responsible or liable for the content, activities or privacy policies of such linked sites. Nonetheless, we seek to protect the integrity of the Website, and welcome any feedback about a linked website (including if a specific link does not work).
If you post or send offensive, inappropriate or objectionable content anywhere on or to the Website, or otherwise engage in any disruptive behavior on the Website, we may use the personal information we hold about you to stop such behavior. Where we reasonably believe that you are or may be in breach of any applicable laws (for example, but without limitation, content you have posted may be defamatory), we may use the personal information we hold to inform relevant third parties such as your email/Internet provider or law enforcement agencies about the content and your behavior.
We are not responsible nor will be liable to you in any way for events beyond our direct control. Because of the complex and constantly changing nature of our technology and business, we cannot guarantee nor do we represent that our performance will be error free, and to the maximum extent permitted by law we will not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages or other loss suffered by you and relating to the use or release of your personal information.

Failure to provide such proof may lead to, among other things, the User-Generated Content in question being removed from the Website.
B. Grant of Rights. By submitting User-Generated Content to Battat, you hereby grant Battat a worldwide, non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free, transferable license, with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses, to use, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, translate, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise exploit your User-Generated Content in connection with the Website and Battat’s (and its successor’s, transferees’, sublicensees’ and their respective affiliates’) business, including without limitation, for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Website (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels or through merchandising. You grant Battat, transferees and sublicensees (and their respective affiliates) the right to use the name that you submit in connection with such User-Generated Content if they choose. You also agree to irrevocably waive (and cause to be waived) any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to your User-Generated Content. You also hereby grant to each User of the Website a non-exclusive license to access your User-Generated Content through the Website, and to use, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, translate, prepare derivative works of, display, and perform such User-Generated Content as permitted by the functionality of the Website and these Terms. The above licenses granted by you in User-Generated Content you submit to the Website shall be perpetual and irrevocable, except that with respect to any User-Generated Content that you have removed or deleted while maintaining your Website user account, or any User-Generated Content following any deactivation or deletion of your Website user account, you may specifically notify Battat regarding the termination of the foregoing license from you to Battat, specifically identifying the item(s) of User-Generated Content to which such termination applies, in which case the foregoing license will terminate within a commercially reasonable time after you provide such notice to Battat. You understand and agree, however, that even following such termination, Battat may retain, but not display or perform, server copies of such User-Generated Content. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the above licenses granted by you in user comments you submit are perpetual and irrevocable.
C. Your Representations and Warranties Regarding User-Generated Content. You shall be solely responsible for your own User-Generated Content and the consequences of posting such User-Generated Content. In connection with User-Generated Content, you affirm, represent, and/or warrant that: (i) you are at least the age of majority, or you are the parent/legal guardian of a minor who has created certain User-Generated Content that you wish to submit to the Website; (ii) your User-Generated Content is not confidential or secret; (iii) you own, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize Battat to use, all patent, trademark, copyright, or other proprietary rights in and to any and all User-Generated Content to enable inclusion and use of User-Generated Content in the manner contemplated by Battat and these Terms, and to grant the rights and license set forth in this Section, and (iv) your User-Generated Content, Battat’s use of such User-Generated Content pursuant to these Terms, and Battat’s exercise of the license rights set forth in this Section, do not and will not: (A) infringe, violate, or misappropriate any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right; (B) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person; or (C) violate any applicable law or regulation, (iv) you have no expectation of compensation or confidentiality of any nature with respect to your User-Generated Content and we, our affiliates, our licensors and/or their affiliates may already have projects under consideration or are independently developing projects that are similar to your User-Generated Content; and (v) you shall indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any and all claims, actions and damages (including, without limitation, court costs, legal fees, accounting fees and amounts paid in settlement) that are related to or result from your use of the Website, your User-Generated Content or its posting on, or submission to, the Website, and/or your violation of these Terms or your representations and warranties hereunder. You will cooperate as fully as reasonably required in the defense of any such claim or action; however, we reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any mater subject to indemnification by you.
D. Prohibited Uses of User-Generated Content. Except as otherwise permitted by these Terms, in connection with your User-Generated Content, you further agree that you will not publish, post, submit, transmit through or otherwise make available to the Website: (i) any falsehoods or misrepresentations that could damage Battat or any third party; (iii) any material which is unlawful, defamatory, libelous, slanderous, pornographic, obscene, abusive, profane, vulgar, sexually explicit, threatening, harassing, harmful, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive or otherwise objectionable, or which encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, violate any law or any right of privacy or publicity, or is otherwise inappropriate; (iv) advertisements or solicitations of business, products, or services; or (v) any material that would be harmful to minors in any manner.
E. No Responsibility for User-Generated Content. With the exception of the limited license granted above, we do not obtain or control any rights in and do not exert editorial control over User-Generated Content. Nothing herein obligates us to verify, and we have not necessarily verified, the representations and warranties made by Users with respect to such User-Generated Content. You acknowledge that the Internet may be subject to breaches of security and that you are aware that submissions of User-Generated Content may not be secure, and you will consider this before submitting any User-Generated Content.
F. Non-Battat Content Disclaimer. You understand that when using the Website you will be exposed to User-Generated Content, advertising and other third party content (together, the “Non-Battat Content”) from a variety of sources and that you may be exposed to Non-Battat Content that is inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or otherwise objectionable. Battat does not endorse any Non-Battat Content or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein. Under no circumstances will Battat be liable in any way for or in connection with the Non-Battat Content, including, but not limited to, for any inaccuracies, errors or omissions in any Non-Battat Content, any intellectual property infringement or misappropriation with regard to any Non-Battat Content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any Non-Battat Content posted, emailed or otherwise displayed or transmitted through the Website.
G. Non-Monitoring of Users and Non-Battat Content. You understand that you, and not Battat, are entirely responsible for all User-Generated Content that you upload, post, e-mail, transmit or otherwise make available through the Website. Battat does not control Non-Battat Content posted by Users or otherwise made available by other persons or entities and does not have any obligation to monitor such Non-Battat Content for any purpose. If at any time Battat chooses, in its sole discretion, to monitor the Non-Battat Content, Battat nonetheless assumes no responsibility for the Non-Battat Content, no obligation to modify or remove any inappropriate Non-Battat Content, no obligation to continue to monitor the Non-Battat Content and no responsibility for the conduct of the User or other person or entity submitting any such Non-Battat Content. You agree that you must evaluate, and bear all risks associated with the use of any User-Generated Content or other Non-Battat Content, including any reliance on the accuracy, completeness, usefulness, non-infringement or legality of such User-Generated Content or other Non-Battat Content.
H. Removal of Non-Battat Content. Battat and its designees shall have the right (but not the obligation) in their sole discretion to refuse to post or remove any Non-Battat Content that is available on the Website in whole or in part at any time for any reason or no reason, with or without notice and with no liability of any kind.
I. Unsolicited Ideas and Materials Prohibited. Battat does not accept or consider any unsolicited ideas or materials for products or services, or even improvements to products or services, such as ideas, concepts, inventions, or designs for toys, games, dolls, videogames, books, scripts, screenplays, motion pictures, television shows, theatrical productions, music productions, or webisodes (collectively, “Unsolicited Ideas and Materials”). Therefore, you must not send to Battat (even within any of your User-Generated Content that we may request), in any form and by any means, any Unsolicited Ideas and Materials. Any Unsolicited Ideas and Materials you post on or send to us via the Website are deemed User-Generated Content and licensed to us as set forth above. If you send us any of your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials despite our request that you not do so, it’s likely they’re identical or substantially similar to ideas, concepts, and materials that, in the past, were developed by our staff or submitted to us by others. Likewise, in the future we may, without any reference to any of your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials, develop or receive from others ideas, concepts, and materials that are identical or substantially similar to your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials. Battat’s receipt of your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials is not an admission by Battat of their novelty, priority, or originality, and it does not impair Battat’s right to contest existing or future intellectual property rights relating to your Unsolicited Ideas and Materials.

You agree not to download or use images hosted on the Website on another website, for any purpose, including, without limitation, posting such images on another website.

IN NO EVENT SHALL BATTAT OR ITS THIRD PARTY COLLABORATORS, LICENSORS OR SUPPLIERS’ TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), WARRANTY, OR OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE LESSOR OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS (USD $100) OR ONE-HALF OF THE ANNUAL FEES PAID BY YOU TO BATTAT (IF APPLICABLE) IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE THAT SUCH CLAIM AROSE.

THE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS OF WARRANTIES, REMEDIES, OR LIABILITY CONTAINED IN THESE TERMS APPLY TO YOU TO THE FULLEST EXTENT SUCH LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS ARE PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE JURISDICTION IN WHICH YOU ARE LOCATED.
L. BASIS OF THE BARGAIN. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT BATTAT HAS OFFERED ITS PRODUCTS AND SERVICES AND ENTERED INTO THESE TERMS IN RELIANCE UPON THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN, THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN REFLECT A REASONABLE AND FAIR ALLOCATION OF RISK BETWEEN YOU AND BATTAT, AND THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN FORM AN ESSENTIAL BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND BATTAT. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT BATTAT WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PROVIDE THE WEBSITE TO YOU ON AN ECONOMICALLY REASONABLE BASIS WITHOUT THESE LIMITATIONS.
A. Notice. Battat may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to these Terms, by email, regular mail, or postings on the Website. If Notice is by e-mail or mail, it will be provided to the e-mail or regular mailing address provided by you with your account information and it is your responsibility to update such account information for any changes. Notice to you will be deemed given twenty-four hours after an email is sent, unless Battat is notified that the email address is invalid, and if through postal mail, three days after the date of mailing. You may provide Battat with notices only by mail to the address indicated in subsection K below.
B. Governing Law. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.
C. Jurisdiction. Any controversy or claims rising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, or the breach thereof, shall be determined by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association.
D. Claims. YOU AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION BROUGHT BY YOU ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE WEBSITE MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED. If, for any reason, we believe, have reason to believe, suspect or are notified of any act, omission or circumstances which may or could (i) compromise or endanger the health, well-being or safety of any person, (ii) cause or lead to damage to persons or property (tangible or intangible), (iii) adversely affect, infringe upon or misappropriate the rights of others, (iv) harass or interfere with any other user or person, firm or enterprise, (v) interfere with or bypass our security or other protective measures applicable to our systems, networks and communications capabilities, (vi) breach or violate these Terms, or (vii) violate any law or regulation, we have the right, reserving cumulatively all other rights and remedies available to us at law, in equity and under this agreement with you, to report and provide information to any and all regulatory and law enforcement authorities and agencies and take any action permitted by law.
E. Waiver. A provision of these Terms may be waived only by a written instrument executed by the party entitled to the benefit of such provision. The failure of Battat to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
F. Severability. If any provision of these Terms and Use is for any reason deemed invalid, unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and Use and the invalidity of the provision will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of these Terms and Use (which will remain in full force and effect).
