Some jurisdictions, such as New Jersey, do not allow certain disclaimers, exclusions of certain warranties, indemnification commitments, or certain attempts to limit liability. Accordingly, the terms of Section 19. Disclaimer of Warranties, Section 20. Limitation of Liability, and this Section 21. Indemnification do not affect any warranties or liabilities that cannot be excluded, disclaimed, or limited as such in any circumstance under applicable law, or impose any limitations or indemnification obligations that cannot be imposed in any circumstances under applicable law. However, if any portion of Sections 19, 20, and 21 are found to be invalid or limited under applicable law, the other provisions of Sections 19, 20, and 21 shall not be affected.
Furthermore, you agree that, to the extent any portion of Section 19, 20, or 21 is found by a court of law or binding arbitration panel to be unenforceable or void for public policy, that you and the Company will jointly request that the court or panel reform this disclaimer to be effective while providing the maximum limitation of liability, disclaimer, or indemnification permitted by applicable law.

Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the Website shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the state courts of the State of Texas, in each case located in Tarrant County, although we retain the right to bring any suit, action, or proceeding against you for breach of these Terms of Use in your country and state of residence or any other relevant country or state. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.
No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set out in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of the Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

These Terms of Use shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. Neither party may assign any of its rights under these Terms of Use without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that we may assign any of our rights to our affiliate, or in connection with a sale of some or all of the Company's assets or equity, regardless of whether such sale results in a change of control or the sale of substantially all the Company's assets.
These Terms of Use may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement.

Nothing in these Terms of Use shall limit the disclaimers or expand any Company warranties set forth in the Buyer's Agreement and Seller's Agreement.
You agree that due to the unique nature of the Website, there can be no adequate remedy at law for breach of your obligation sunder these Terms of Use, and that any such breach would result in irreparable harm to the Company, and, therefore, upon any such breach or threatened breach, the Company shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief without the necessity of posting bond or proof of actual damages (and you will stipulate as to the fact of irreparable harm) to enforce the terms of this Agreement and compel specific performance, in addition to any remedies it may have at law.

The Listings and any communications by Company or its representatives do not involve a transaction in securities, or the rendering of investment advice for compensation in the United States or any of its states or territories. The Listings and communications by Company are limited to the dissemination of general information for the mineral interests for sale and do not constitute a public offering, offer of securities, or solicitation to buy or sell securities or (participation in the forgoing) under applicable securities laws.

You also represent that you are able to bear the economic and financial risk of any transaction you undertake by use of the Website.
We will not be liable or responsible to you, nor deemed to have defaulted under these Terms of Use, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of these Terms of Use, when and to the extent such failure or delay is caused by or results from acts beyond our reasonable control, including:
We promise to give you notice within a reasonable amount of time of the event listed above, which will state the period of time the occurrence is expected to continue. We promise to take commercially reasonable steps to end the failure or delay and ensure the effects of such event are minimized.

We will continue to collect the same categories of Personal Information listed in the charts above, for the same purposes. If this should change, we will issue an updated Privacy Notice.
The third parties with whom we share your Personal Information are bound to comply with similar and equally stringent undertakings of privacy and confidentiality.
We also share your Personal Information with third parties to comply with legal obligations; when we believe in good faith that an applicable law requires it; at the request of governmental authorities or other third parties conducting an investigation; to detect and protect against fraud, or any technical or security vulnerabilities; to respond to an emergency; or otherwise to protect the rights, property, safety, or security of third parties, visitors to our websites, our businesses, or the public.
We do not grant access to your Personal Information to any other third parties unless we say so in this Privacy Notice or unless the law requires it.
We will not retain Personal Information for longer than is necessary in relation to the purpose for which it is collected, subject to Data Protection Law. Your Personal Information will be retained for the duration of your account on our platform, as applicable, and for a minimum period of six years after termination of your account, as applicable. We may retain Personal Information for a longer period for the purpose of marketing our products and services or compliance with applicable law. From time to time, we will review the purpose for which Personal Information has been collected and decide whether to retain it or to delete it if it no longer serves any purpose to us.
We aim to protect your Personal Information from unauthorized access and use, by implementing and maintaining reasonable security appropriate to the nature of the Personal Information that we collect, use, retain, transfer or otherwise process. Our reasonable security program is implemented and maintained in accordance with applicable law and relevant standards, including, in accordance with the report issued by the California Attorney General in February 2016, available at https://oag.ca.gov/sites/all/files/agweb/pdfs/dbr/2016-data-breach-report.pdf. Specifically, among other safeguards, our reasonable security program implements and maintains all 20 of the Center for Internet Security’s Critical Security Controls for Effective Cyber Defense identified in Appendix A of the California Attorney General Report. As noted in that report, “there is no perfect security,” and reasonable security is a process that involves risk management rather than risk elimination. While we are committed to developing, implementing, maintaining, monitoring and updating a reasonable information security program, no such program can be perfect; in other words, all risk cannot reasonably be eliminated. Data security incidents and breaches can occur due to vulnerabilities, criminal exploits or other factors that cannot reasonably be prevented. Accordingly, while our reasonable security program is designed to manage data security risks and thus help prevent data security incidents and breaches, it cannot be assumed that the occurrence of any given incident or breach results from our failure to implement and maintain reasonable security.
We will notify you of any material Personal Information breaches affecting you in accordance with the requirements of Data Protection Law.
You may control marketing communications at any time by opting out of future communications through the link at the end of our emails or managing your preferences within your settings menu.
We may track online activity on our site over time, including referral URLs. We do not respond to browsers or do not track signals.
Because of the international nature of broker-dealer business, Personal Information may be transferred to countries outside the United States of America (“US”) (“Third Countries”), such as to jurisdictions where we conduct business or have a service provider, including countries that may not have the same level of data protection as that afforded by the Data Protection Law in the US. In such cases, we will process Personal Information (or procure that it be processed) in the Third Countries in accordance with the requirements of the Data Protection Law, which may include having appropriate contractual undertakings in legal agreements with service providers who process Personal Information on our behalf in such Third Countries.
You can log into your account to access or request deletion of certain information about yourself, or you can do so by using the contact details set out at the end of this Privacy Notice. For security purposes, you may be required to provide additional information to verify your identity and validate your request, and the number of identification points may vary depending on the nature and sensitivity of the information you seek. Moreover, we may not be able to grant all requests, as an exception may apply and/or we may be required to retain information for record keeping or other legal compliance purposes. We endeavor to promptly reply to any privacy rights requests, but at least shall reply to your request within the time frames required by applicable local law.

Energy Domain, LLC and Energy Domain Securities, LLC (the "Firm") has developed a Business Continuity Plan (the “BCP”) on how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, we will have to be flexible in responding to actual events as they occur. With that in mind, we are providing you with this information on our BCP.
Contacting Us –If after a significant business disruption you cannot contact us as you usually do at (817) 928‑3322 or contact@energydomain.com, you should call our alternative number 817-992-2193 or go to our website at energydomain.com.
Our Business Continuity Plan –We plan to quickly recover and resume business operations after a significant business disruption and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm’s books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business. In short, our BCP is designed to permit the firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the significant business disruption.
Our BCP addresses: data backup and recovery; all mission critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; alternate physical location of employees; critical supplier, contractor, bank and counter-party impact; and regulatory reporting.
Varying Disruptions –Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as only our firm, a single building housing our firm, the business district where our firm is located, the city where we are located, or the whole region. Within each of these areas, the severity of the disruption can also vary from minimal to severe. In a disruption to only our firm or a building housing our firm, we will transfer our operations to a local site when needed and expect to recover and resume business within 24 hours. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site outside of the affected area, and recover and resume business within 48 hours. In either situation, we plan to continue in business, and notify you through our website energydomain.com or our customer emergency number, 817-992-2193 how to contact us. If the significant business disruption is so severe that it prevents us from remaining in business, we will assure our customer’s prompt access to their funds and securities.
