GENERAL TERMS

A. Scope. These general terms apply to your use of the Sites. Please also note
that certain of the Sites may link to other Apps, Websites, and/or Services that
we provide and are subject to separate terms. Please ensure that you review
these Terms and any other terms prior to using any Application, Website, or
Service.

B. Not a Substitute for Professional Advice. Although the Sites may provide
information concerning product usage and specifications, it is not a substitute
for advice from a qualified professional, and you should not act or refrain from
acting on the basis of any content included in this site without seeking advice
from a qualified professional.

C. Limitation of Liability. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE ARE
NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FAILURES CAUSED BY SERVER ERRORS, MISDIRECTED OR
REDIRECTED TRANSMISSIONS, FAILED INTERNET CONNECTIONS, INTERRUPTIONS OR FAILURES
IN THE TRANSMISSION OF DATA, ANY COMPUTER VIRUS, ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF THIRD
PARTIES THAT DAMAGE THE NETWORK OR IMPAIR WIRELESS SERVICE, DAMAGE OR INJURY
CAUSED BY A FAILURE OR DELAY IN ANY OF THE SITES, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION,
IN CONNECTING A CALL TO ANY ENTITY, OR OTHER TECHNICAL DEFECT.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR
PERSONAL INJURY, OR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY, OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHATSOEVER, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR
LOSS OF PROFITS, CORRUPTION OR LOSS OF DATA, FAILURE TO TRANSMIT OR RECEIVE ANY
DATA, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR ANY OTHER COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, ARISING
OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE, MISUSE, RELIANCE OF OR INABILITY
TO USE ANY OF THE SITES OR ANY MATERIALS, INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, SOFTWARE,

REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY (CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE) AND EVEN IF
WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. SOME STATES AND
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES,
SO THESE LIMITATIONS AND EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR
TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES (OTHER THAN AS MAY BE REQUIRED BY
APPLICABLE LAW IN CASES INVOLVING PERSONAL INJURY) EXCEED THE LESSER OF THE
AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID IN THE PRIOR THREE (3) MONTHS FOR THE APPLICABLE SITE THAT
GAVE RISE TO LIABILITY OR FIVE DOLLARS ($5.00). THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS WILL
APPLY EVEN IF THE ABOVE STATED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE. THE TERMS
REGARDING LIMITS ON LIABILITY AND VOLUNTARY SUBMISSIONS SHALL SURVIVE THE
TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS, AND SHALL REMAIN IN EFFECT INDEFINITELY.

D. Disclaimer of Warranties. USE OF ANY OF THE SITES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK AND
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO SATISFACTORY QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, ACCURACY AND EFFORT IS
WITH YOU. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SITES AND ALL
RELATED MATERIALS, INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, SOFTWARE, PROGRAMS, AND SERVICES ARE
PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY
KIND. WE HEREBY DISCLAIM TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW ALL WARRANTIES
AND CONDITIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE SITES, AND ALL RELATED MATERIALS,
INFORMATION, PRODUCTS, SOFTWARE, PROGRAMS, AND SERVICES, EITHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED
OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND/OR
CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR
PURPOSE, ACCURACY, QUIET ENJOYMENT, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.
NO ORAL OR WRITTEN INFORMATION OR ADVICE GIVEN BY ANY PROVIDER PARTY OR ITS
AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES SHALL CREATE ANY WARRANTY. WITHOUT LIMITATION, WE
MAKE NO WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE THAT THE USE OF ANY OF THE SITES WILL BE
UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE.

E. Changes to Terms. We reserve the right to change these Terms at any time,
which will be indicated by the ”Last Updated Date” at the top of these Terms. It
is your responsibility to review these Terms frequently and remain informed
about any changes to them, so we encourage you to visit this page often. The
most recent version of these Terms takes precedence over any previous version of
these Terms of use that we have issued related to any Sites and your continued
use of the Sites constitutes your acceptance of the most recent version of these
Terms.

F. Other Terms. Additional or different terms, conditions, and notices may apply
to specific materials, information, products, software, and services offered
through the Sites. In the event of any conflict, such additional or different
terms, conditions, and notices will prevail over these Terms. Please review any
other applicable terms, conditions, or notices.

G. Indemnity and Hold Harmless. In consideration of our provision of the Sites
to you and the rights granted to you in these Terms, to the maximum extent
allowable by law and unless prohibited by law, you agree to indemnify and hold
Indemnified Parties harmless from and against any and all losses, damages,
injuries (including death), causes of action, claims, penalties, interest,
additional taxes, demands, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and
expenses, of any kind or nature arising out of, in connection with, on account
of, or resulting from, any third party claim or demand made to or against any
Indemnified Party(ies): (1) arising out of your access to or use of the Sites
including any of their features or other services; (2) arising out of your
failure to comply with these Terms; (3) relating to the inaccuracy or
untruthfulness of any representation or warranty that you made under these
Terms; (4) arising out of any activities of anyone other than you in connection
with the Sites conducted through your account or Device; (5) arising out of
access to or use of, or inability to access or use, any of the Sites through
your Device; (6) arising out of any of your other activities under or in
connection with these Terms or the Sites; (7) arising out of any claim or
allegation that any materials, content, or data you upload or otherwise make
available through the Sites infringes the intellectual property, trade secret,
or other proprietary rights of any third party; or (8) arising out of your
negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct. We reserve the right to assume the
exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification
by you, and, in such case, you agree to and shall cooperate with our defense of
such claim.

H. Arbitration. ARBITRATION CLAUSE — IMPORTANT — PLEASE REVIEW — AFFECTS YOUR
LEGAL RIGHTS.

 * EITHER YOU OR WE MAY CHOOSE TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US DECIDED BY
   ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT OR BY JURY TRIAL.
 * IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS
   REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US
   INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL
   ARBITRATIONS.
 * DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN
   IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE
   AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
 * In accordance with this section, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising
   out of or relating to these Terms, or the breach, termination, enforcement,
   interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope
   or applicability of these Terms to arbitrate, or relating to any of the Sites
   shall, at your or our election, be resolved by neutral, binding arbitration
   and not by a court action. If federal law provides that a claim or dispute is
   not subject to binding arbitration, this Arbitration Clause shall not apply
   to such claim or dispute. Any claim or dispute is to be arbitrated by a
   single arbitrator on an individual basis and not as a class action. You
   expressly waive any right you may have to arbitrate a class action. You may
   choose one of the following arbitration organizations, and its applicable
   rules, to conduct the arbitration: JAMS (800 352-5267, www.jamsadr.com), the
   American Arbitration Association (800 778-7879, www.adr.org), or any other
   organization subject to our approval. You may get a copy of the rules of an
   arbitration organization by contacting the organization or visiting its
   website.
 * Arbitrators shall be attorneys or retired judges and shall be selected
   pursuant to the applicable rules. The arbitrator shall apply governing
   substantive law and the applicable statutes of limitation. Unless applicable
   law provides otherwise, the arbitration hearing shall be conducted in the
   federal district in which you reside. We will pay your filing,
   administration, service and case management fee, your arbitrator and hearing
   fee and any arbitration appeal fees you incur all up to a maximum of $5,000,
   unless the law requires us to pay more. The amount we pay may be reimbursed
   in whole or in part by decision of the arbitrator if the arbitrator finds
   that any of your claims are frivolous under applicable law. Each party shall
   be responsible for its own attorney, expert, and other fees, unless awarded
   by the arbitrator under applicable law. If the chosen arbitration
   organization’s rules conflict with this clause, then the provisions of this
   clause shall control. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on
   all parties, except that you may appeal any arbitrator’s award pursuant to
   the rules of the arbitration organization, and we may only appeal an award
   against us exceeding $100,000. Any arbitration under this Arbitration Clause
   shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et. seq.) and
   not by any state law concerning arbitration.
 * You retain the right to seek remedies in small claims court for disputes or
   claims within that court’s jurisdiction, and we agree to reimburse your
   filing fees for such proceedings. You also retain the right to seek
   individual injunctive relief in court. Neither you nor we waive the right to
   arbitrate by filing suit. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on
   the arbitrator’s award. This Arbitration Clause shall survive any termination
   of these Terms. If any part of this Arbitration Clause, other than waivers of
   class action rights, is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason,
   the remainder shall remain enforceable. If a waiver of class action rights is
   deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason in a case in which class
   action allegations have been made, the remainder of this Arbitration Clause
   shall be unenforceable.

I. Our Privacy Practices. Any personally identifiable information you may
provide to Bridgestone via the Sites is subject to our Privacy Policy.

J. Intellectual Property Rights. The contents of the Sites including, but not
limited to, the text, images, and video contained in the Sites and their
arrangement are owned by or licensed to Bridgestone. All trademarks, logos and

of their corresponding owners. You cannot and shall not use the Trademarks or
any other content on or available through the Sites, except as we clearly allow
you to in these Terms. In addition, you acknowledge that the Sites themselves
are protected by copyright law. You cannot and shall not copy, reverse engineer,
reproduce, republish, upload, post, transmit, or distribute the Sites or any of
the content provided in or through the Sites, including, but not limited to,

permission. You cannot and shall not mirror, scrape, or deep link any content on
another website or in any other media. All videos are copyrighted material and
may not be copied, edited, or reproduced without our permission. If we or a
third party service provider make any software, application or other materials
available for you to download, access, or other use from the Sites, Services, or
through the Apps and they include their own license terms, conditions, and
notices, those software, applications, and other materials will be governed by
their own terms, conditions, and notices. When you download, access, or use that
separate content, you agree to those terms, conditions, and notices and you
agree to be legally bound by them. Except for this limited permission, we do not
grant you any express or implied rights or licenses under any patents,
trademarks, copyrights, or other proprietary or intellectual property rights. We
reserve the right to enforce our intellectual property rights to the fullest
extent of the law.

K. Ownership of information submitted via the Sites. Subject to the terms of our
Privacy Policy, Submission will be considered non-confidential. Bridgestone is
under no obligation to post or use any Submission and may remove any Submission
at any time in its sole discretion. Unless otherwise expressly stated in writing
by Bridgestone, no compensation will be paid with respect to the use of any
Submission. Bridgestone shall have no obligation to preserve, return or
otherwise make available to you or others any Submission. Bridgestone shall: (a)
be entitled to unrestricted use of the Submission for any purpose whatsoever,
commercial or otherwise, in any media now known or hereafter developed, without
compensation to you or any other person, and (b) be entitled to sublicense the
foregoing rights, through multiple tiers, to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law. The foregoing licenses shall survive any termination of our use
of the Sites. By posting, uploading, inputting, providing or submitting your
Submission you warrant and represent that you own or otherwise control all of
the rights to your Submission as described in this section including, without
limitation, all the rights necessary for you to provide, post, upload, input or
submit the Submission. The rights granted to Bridgestone include but are not
limited to the right to resize, crop, censor, compress, edit, feature, caption,
affix logos to, and to otherwise alter or make use of your Submission. You
understand and intend that any Submission may be available for viewing, rating,
review and comment on by the public, and understand that comments or ratings
with which you disagree or are unhappy about may be published or otherwise
become associated with any Submission. By providing your Submission to
Bridgestone, you hereby waive any privacy expectations that you may have with
respect to any such Submission. You hereby agree to hold Bridgestone and its
affiliates, subsidiaries, licensees, sponsors and assigns harmless from and
against, and hereby waive any right to pursue, any claims of any nature arising
in connection with the inclusion in, publication via or display on any
Bridgestone Site, or any other use authorized under these Terms, of your
Submission. You hereby agree that Submissions will reflect your honest opinions,
beliefs, and experiences about Bridgestone and our products.

L. Government Usage Rights. All materials, software and applications on or
available through the Sites are provided with “RESTRICTED RIGHTS.” Use,
duplication, or disclosure by the U.S. Government is subject to restrictions as
set forth in applicable laws and regulations.

M. Term and Termination. These Terms become effective when you download,
install, or use the Sites and shall remain in effect until your use is
terminated. You may terminate your access to any of the Sites at any time in
accordance with any specific procedure set forth in these Terms, or if no
specific procedure is provided, by discontinuing use of any of them, as
applicable. Your failure to comply with these Terms will result in automatic
termination of any rights granted to you, without prior notice, and you must
immediately destroy all copies of downloaded materials in your possession or
control. We reserve the right to terminate these Terms at any time if you
violate these Terms or we reasonably believe your use of any of the Sites
violates these Terms. Upon termination, you will no longer have a right or
license to access or use the Sites and you must immediately destroy all copies
of downloaded materials in your possession or control. The portions of these
Terms affecting limits on liability, arbitration, and voluntary submissions will
survive the termination of these Terms and continue to be in force indefinitely.

N. Security. The security, integrity, and confidentiality of your information is
extremely important to us. We have implemented and maintain security measures
and standards that are designed to help us protect your information from
unauthorized access, disclosure, use, and modification. We review our security
measures and standards and update as necessary or advisable to reflect new
technology and methods. While we use such security standards and measures, we
cannot guarantee that personally identifiable information or any other
information you submit on or through any of the Sites will be secure because no
security measures are perfect or impenetrable. Please carefully consider the
information that you submit and the risks in submitting that information.

O. Alternate Login Methods.  You may be able to access your account within the
Sites by using features such as fingerprint recognition, facial recognition, or
other biometric input, which are specific to your mobile device.  These features
are provided through your mobile device’s built-in functionality, and
Bridgestone has no responsibility for any failure of these features, either
where such failure may prevent you from accessing your account or where such
failure may permit an unauthorized third party to access your account.  When you
use these features, your biometric data is stored on your device and is not
transferred to, processed, or stored by or on behalf of Bridgestone.  Be aware
that if you enable features such as fingerprint or facial recognition, anyone
with a fingerprint or face profile stored on your device may have access to the
information contained within the Sites.

P. Links to External Sites and Services. The Sites may contain links to and from
third party websites, applications, and/or services. We make no representations
whatsoever about any other websites, applications, and/or services that you may
access from or through any of the Sites. We are not responsible for the privacy
notices or content from those websites, applications, and/or services. We
expressly deny any liability whatsoever for use of such websites, applications,
and/or services, or for the content, accuracy, opinions expressed and other
links provided by these resources. It is up to you to take precautions to ensure
that whatever you select for your use is free from viruses and meets your needs.
Each of these resources may be subject to and governed by additional terms and
conditions of use provided by the third parties responsible for such resources,
and you are solely responsible to comply with such terms and conditions.

Q. Use of the Sites. Your use of the Sites, including but not limited to
requesting or using the Services, must comply with all applicable federal,
state, and local law, rules and regulations. You are prohibited from
transmitting, providing or introducing any content into the Apps, Sites, or
Services, or through the Sites into other systems related to the Services, that:
(1) infringes any third party intellectual property, publicity or privacy
rights; (2) violates any applicable law, rule, or regulation; (3) is defamatory,
obscene, profane, false, threatening, pornographic, inappropriate, fraudulent,
deceptive, or unprofessional; (4) creates a nuisance for our service providers,
business, or other customers of the Services; (5) contains any viruses, Trojan
horses, worms, time bombs, or other computer programming routines that are
intended to damage, detrimentally interfere with, secretly intercept, or
expropriate any system, or any data or personal information from or through any
software or hardware associated with the Services or any vehicle; (6) attempts
to gain unauthorized access to any of our other users’ accounts; (7) attempts to
gain unauthorized access to our computer networks; (8) violates these Terms; or
(9) is otherwise tortious or criminal. We do not generally make editorial
determinations about your transmissions or any content you may provide through
the Sites. However, we reserve the right to take any actions we deem necessary
or appropriate to minimize any liability to us arising from your transmissions,
any content you provide, your use of any App, Site, or Service, or to otherwise
preserve our relationships with our service providers (including internet access
providers). We will cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court
order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any
such information or content or as otherwise stated in any additional applicable
terms.

R. Changes or Updates to the Sites. Subject to any other additional terms
governing the Sites as set forth in the “Other Terms” section of these Terms, we
reserve the right to change, modify, remove, or restrict access to or use of any
features, capabilities, or components of any of the Sites or to completely
remove any of the Sites in our sole discretion, at any time, and without notice
or obligation to you. All information, specifications, photographs, and
illustrations that are provided within any of the Sites are those available at
the time of release, and we reserve the right to change materials,
specifications, or design, at any time, and without notice or obligation to you.
We use reasonable efforts to include accurate and up-to-date information on the
Sites, however errors or omissions may occur, including information concerning
price and product specifications. In addition, information, including, but not
limited to, product pricing and availability, may be changed or updated without
notice.

S. Third-Party Hardware, Services, Sites, and Apps. When you use the Sites, you
may need to use hardware, services, and/or applications that were not developed
by us and are not under our control, such as your Device, the mobile network
provided by your wireless service provider, your Device’s browser, email, and/or
SMS programs, dialer, and other applications. We cannot and do not assure you
that these third party hardware, services, and/or applications will work
correctly with the Sites and we expressly deny any liability related to the
involvement and interaction with these third party hardware, services, and/or
applications.

T. Data Fees, Network Costs, and Other Expenses. The Sites may make use of a
data network operated by your wireless service provider to send both data and
