Hub Enterprise Services And Hub App Terms

Last Modified: March 31, 2021

Please review these terms (the “Agreement”) carefully. Wherever used in this Agreement, “you”, “your”, “Customer”, and similar terms mean the person or legal entity accessing or using the Enterprise Services. For the avoidance of doubt, if you are accessing and using the Services on behalf of a company (such as your employer) or other legal entity, “you”, “your” or “Customer” means the company or other legal entity that you are using the Services on behalf of.

By purchasing, accessing or using the Enterprise Services offered by HubDM Inc. (“HubDM” “Hub”, “Company”, “we” or “us”), you are confirming that you have read, understand and accept this Agreement. This Agreement can be updated from time to time in accordance with Section 10.5 below. You are responsible for regularly reviewing the most current version of this Agreement.  When we change this Agreement, we will update the “Last Modified” date above.

This Agreement applies only to the Enterprise Services and Hub Community Platform, as further defined below.

By purchasing, accessing or using the Enterprise Services, you confirm that:

    A. You will only use our Enterprise Services for business and professional reasons (the Enterprise Services are not for use by consumers and may only be used for business and professional purposes);

    B. You accept and will comply with this Agreement; and

    C. You are responsible for anyone that uses our Enterprise Services through your account (“Authorized Users”), which may include your employees, consultants or contractors, or the employees, consultants or contractors of your “Affiliates”, which are companies or entities that you own, that own you, or that have the same owner or corporate parent as you. If you are a marketing agency or similar organization and provide access to our Enterprise Services to any of your clients or their employees, they are also your Authorized Users.

    1. HubDM Terminology.

        (a) We use capitalization for terms that have a special meaning in this Agreement. While some terms are defined elsewhere, this section sets out the definitions of some key terms.

An “Authorization Form” is a document that we issue and that is signed or otherwise agreed to by you, which describes the Enterprise Services and/or Partner Services you are purchasing, including the fees, the quantities purchased, and any other details specifically related to those services.

“App” is the application we provide that allows people to join communities, message community members, and create profiles through the Hub website accessible at joinhub.com.

Content” is a generic term that means all information and data (such as text, images, photos, videos, audio and documents) in any format that is uploaded to, downloaded from or appears on our Enterprise Services.

Customer Content” is Content that you or your Authorized Users provide to us or upload to our Enterprise Services.

Ads Content” is Customer Content that you or your Authorized Users provide in connection with your creation, posting, or management of paid advertisements on Facebook, Instagram, or any other applicable Social Network.

Mentions” are the Content that a third party (in other words, someone other than you, an Authorized User or Hub) creates and that we obtain on your behalf and at your instruction from Social Networks or other Third-Party Services that you connect to our Enterprise Services. For example, posts created by followers that appear on your Facebook page would be considered Mentions.

Enterprise Services” means services included in HubDM’s Enterprise or Business plans and any other HubDM products or services made available to you through an Authorization Form or an Online Order, but does not include: i) HubDM’s Self-Serve Services; or ii) any Third-Party Services.

An “Online Order” is a purchase of Enterprise Services through our website.

Third-Party Services” are services that are not provided by HubDM that you may access or use in connection with our Enterprise Services. They include the “Social Networks”, which are the social networking sites supported by our Enterprise Services (such as Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram), as well as the extensions and available applications and the “Partner Services”, which are third-party services made available by HubDM as an authorized reseller.

        (b) Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and do not affect the construction or interpretation of this Agreement.

2. Introduction to Hub App Community Platform

Read through the following Terms of Use carefully, since it contains important information about your legal rights, obligations and remedies. The Terms of Use also contain limitations and exclusions and a dispute resolution clause that governs how disputes shall be resolved. The App (and its content) is fully owned and operated by Hub (“the Company”).

Together with the App’s Privacy Policy, these Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the App by the Company. This is a legal agreement between you and the Company. By accessing or using the App, you (the “User”) indicate that you have read, understand and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use. If you do not accept these Terms of Use in their entirety, stop accessing or using the App.

3. Hub App Registration

To access certain features of the App, and to post certain User Content, you will have to create an account to become a “Registered User”. You must be 18 years of age or older. When you register, you may be asked to choose a password. You are responsible for safeguarding your password and agree not to disclose your password to any third party. You agree that you are solely responsible for any activities taken under your password, whether or not you have authorized such activities. You shall immediately notify the Company of any unauthorized use of your password. You agree that the information that you provide to the App upon registration, and at all other times will be true, accurate, current and complete.

4. HubDM’s Enterprise Services.

    2.1 Enterprise Services. During the Term, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, we will: (a) make the Enterprise Services available to you in accordance with the applicable Authorization Form; and (b) host and serve the Enterprise Services.

    2.2 Advertising Terms. If you use the Enterprise Services to create and manage Ads Content on any Social Network, the HubDM Ads Terms published apply to and govern that use.

    2.3 Updates. Our Enterprise Services evolve constantly. So long as we do not breach the warranty set out in Section 9.2(a), we may change our Enterprise Services (such as by changing, adding or removing features) at any time, for any reason, and may or may not provide notice of those changes to you.

    2.4 Social Networks. Our Enterprise Services interact with Social Networks and depend on the availability of those Social Networks and the features and functionality they make available to us, which we do not control and may change without notice. If at any time a Social Network stops making some or all of its features or functionality available to us, or available to us on reasonable terms as determined by HubDM in its sole discretion (each an “API Change”), we may stop providing access to those features or functionality and we will not be liable to you or any third party for any such change.

5. Your Responsibilities.

    5.1 Acceptable Use. You and your Authorized Users must comply with the Acceptable Use Rules and all applicable laws. If you or any of your Authorized Users do not comply with the Acceptable Use Rules or any applicable laws, we may remove any of your Content and temporarily suspend or restrict your access to the Enterprise Services without prior notice. In such case, we will then notify you and, where applicable, will work with you in good faith to resolve the issue.

    5.2 Customer Content. You are solely responsible for Customer Content. We may, but do not have to, review, filter, block or remove Content, including Customer Content.

 6. Content & Third-Party Services.

The App may provide links to other websites (“Third Party Apps”) or other resources from the App. Information on Third Party Apps are not investigated, monitored or checked for accuracy, offensiveness, opinions, reliability, privacy practices or other policies, and the Company is not responsible for any Third Party Apps accessed through the App. Inclusion of or linking to the use of any Third Party Apps does not imply approval or endorsement by the Company. You take sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from your use of any such websites or resources. If you decide to leave the App and access Third Party Apps, you do so at your own risk and you are aware that our terms and policies no longer govern. You should review the applicable terms and policies of any site to which you navigate, including privacy and data gathering practices.

    6.1 Third-Party Content. We are not responsible for Content provided by others, including Mentions and Content from Third-Party Services (such as Content from Social Networks).

We will not be liable to you or any third party for Content provided by others.

    6.2 Third-Party Services. If you access or purchase a Third-Party Service, you do so at your own risk. Your relationship with the Third-Party Service provider is an agreement between you and them. If you access or enable a Third-Party Service, you grant them permission to access or otherwise process your data as required for the operation of the Third-Party Services. We will not be liable for disclosure, use, changes to, or deletion of your data or for losses or damages you may suffer from access to your data by a Third-Party Service. We make no representation and will have no liability or obligation whatsoever in relation to the content or use of, or correspondence, agreements or transactions with, any Third-Party Services. You must comply with all agreements and other legal requirements that apply to Third-Party Services.

    6.3 Partner Services. Without limiting the generality of Section 4.2, if you purchase any Partner Services, you: (a) acknowledge and agree that we are acting solely as an authorized reseller for such Partner Services; and (b) expressly agree to be bound by the terms and conditions applicable to such services set out in the applicable Authorization Form.

7. Intellectual Property.

    7.1 Enterprise Services. We keep all rights and interests in our Enterprise Services. The Enterprise Services contain Content owned or licensed by HubDM (“HubDM Content”). HubDM Content is protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret and other laws, and, as between you and HubDM, we own and retain all rights in the HubDM Content.

    7.2 Feedback. We welcome your suggestions, comments, bug reports, feature requests or other feedback (“Feedback”). We do not have to keep Feedback confidential, even if you tell us it is confidential, provided we do not disclose that you are the source of any Feedback. If you provide Feedback, you grant HubDM a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free, fully paid-up license to use the Feedback for any purpose.

8. Term and Termination.

    8.1 Term of Agreement. This Agreement will commence on the first day of the initial term set forth on your first Authorization Form or the day of your Online Order, as applicable, and will continue in effect until the earlier of: (a) the expiration of all Authorization Forms and Online Orders applicable to you (including any renewal periods unless notice of non-renewal is provided as set out in Section 6.2); and (b) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with its terms (the “Term”).

    8.2 Term of Authorization Forms, Online Orders. The term of each Authorization Form will start on the first day of the initial term specified on the Authorization Form, and will continue for the specified term. The term of each Online Order will start on the day you place the Online Order, and will continue for the specified term. Except as expressly stated otherwise in an Authorization Form, all Authorization Forms and Online Orders will automatically renew for subsequent one-year renewal periods unless a party gives the other party written notice of non-renewal at least sixty (60) days prior to the end of the then-current term. HubDM reserves the right to increase the Fees for Enterprise Services and/or Partner Services on renewal by providing Customer written notice thereof (which notice may be provided by email) at least ninety (90) days prior to the end of the then-current term.

    8.3 Termination for Cause. A party may terminate this Agreement for cause (a) immediately if the other party has failed to cure a material breach within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice of that material breach from the other party; or (b) immediately if the other party becomes the subject of a petition in bankruptcy or any other proceeding relating to insolvency, receivership, liquidation, or assignment for the benefit of creditors.

    8.4 Effects of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason: (a) all Authorization Forms and Online Orders will automatically terminate; (b) your access to HubDM accounts, Enterprise Services and Partner Services will be terminated and you will immediately cease all use thereof; and (c) you will pay all unpaid amounts you owe to HubDM. If you terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.3, HubDM will refund any Fees you paid in advance for the Enterprise Services and Partner Services applicable to the period after termination. If HubDM terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.3, then you will pay any unpaid Fees for the remainder of the term of each Authorization Form and Online Order. In no event will termination of this Agreement relieve you of your obligation to pay any amounts payable to HubDM for the period prior to the date of termination.

    8.5 Survival. Any provision of this Agreement that, either by its terms or to give effect to its meaning, must survive and such other provisions that expressly or by their nature are intended to survive termination will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, Sections 5, 8, and 9 will survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

9. Fees and Payment.

    9.1 Online Orders.  You are responsible for paying all taxes on all fees that you pay to us; local taxes may differ based on your payment method.

    9.2 Authorization Forms. The following terms apply to any purchase made by signing an Authorization Form:

    (a) Fees. You will pay all fees as and when described in the Authorization Form(s) (the “Fees”).

    (b) Invoicing. We will invoice you for the Fees in the currency set forth on the applicable Authorization Form. Unless otherwise stated on the Authorization Form, all undisputed invoices are payable within thirty (30) days of the invoice date. Any disputed amounts will not affect payment of non-disputed amounts. You will make payments to the entity and address set forth in the invoice.

    (c) Late Payment. If any undisputed amounts invoiced are not received by HubDM by the due date, then, at our discretion, such charges may accrue late interest at the lower of: (a) the rate of 12% per year; or (b) the maximum rate permitted by law from the date such payment was due until the date paid. In addition, upon thirty (30) days’ written notice to you provided after the due date of any undisputed amount, we may suspend your access to the Enterprise Services if we have not received the amounts invoiced in full.

    (d) Taxes. You are responsible for paying all taxes, assessments, charges, fees, and levies that may be levied on or applicable to the sale or license of goods or services, as the case may be, including all sales, use, goods and services, value added, and excise taxes, customs duties, and assessments, together with any installments and any interest, fines, and penalties with respect thereto, imposed by any governmental authority, including federal, state, provincial, municipal, and foreign governmental authorities (collectively, “Taxes”) associated with your subscription to the Enterprise Services, which for clarity does not include any taxes based on HubDM’s income. If we have the legal obligation to pay or collect Taxes for which you are responsible under this Section 7.2(d), the appropriate amount will be invoiced to and paid by you, unless you provide us with a valid tax exemption certificate authorized by the appropriate taxing authority. Any and all payments by or on account of the compensation payable under this Agreement will be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes. If you are required to deduct or withhold any Taxes from such payments, then the sum payable will be increased as necessary so that, after making all required deductions and withholdings, we receive an amount equal to the sum we would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

10. Confidentiality, Security & Data Protection.

    10.1 Confidential Information. HubDM and you may exchange “Confidential Information” in the course of your negotiation and use of our Enterprise Services. HubDM’s Confidential Information may include non-public information about our pricing, personnel, or partnerships, our product roadmap, our security documentation, or other non-public information we identify as confidential. Your Confidential Information may include non-public information about your policies (such as your policies for internal review or approval of Customer Content), personnel (including names and email addresses of your Authorized Users), or plans or strategies (such as marketing plans or social strategies you share with HubDM in the course of our delivery of HubDM Professional Services), but does not include any Content published, communicated, or transmitted to or through a Social Network account. When either you or we (the “recipient”) receive Confidential Information from the other (the “discloser”), the recipient will use the same degree of care that it uses to protect the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information of like kind (but in no event less than reasonable care) and will not disclose or use any Confidential Information of the discloser for any purpose outside of the scope of this Agreement. Information will not be considered Confidential Information if (i) it was lawfully in the recipient’s possession before receiving it from the discloser; (ii) it is provided in good faith to the recipient by a third party without breaching any rights of the discloser or any other party; (iii) it is or becomes generally available to, or accessible by, the public through no fault of the recipient; or (iv) it was or is independently developed by the recipient without reference to the discloser’s Confidential Information. In the event that the recipient or any representative of the recipient becomes legally compelled (by law, rule, regulation, subpoena, or similar court process) to disclose any of the Confidential Information, the recipient will (if permitted to do so) provide the discloser with notice of such circumstances and will limit such disclosure to the required disclosure.

    10.2 Enterprise Security Standards. During the Term, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the following “Enterprise Security Standards”:

        (a) Security Practices. HubDM will implement and maintain security practices.

        (b) Reports. Upon request no more than once annually, HubDM will provide you with (a) a copy of its most recent security audit report (which may include summaries of test results or equivalent measures taken to assess the effectiveness of its control environment), (b) a summary of its most recent penetration testing results, or (c) both.

        (c) Disaster Recovery and Business Continuity. HubDM has and will maintain a disaster recovery and business continuity plan.

        (d) Breach Notification. HubDM will notify you within 72 hours of becoming aware of any unauthorized access to your HubDM account (a “Breach”), will promptly take all necessary steps to mitigate the Breach, and will provide you with reasonable cooperation in investigating the Breach (including, on request and to the extent reasonable, providing you with copies of relevant records, logs, or other materials).

11. Intellectual Property Rights And Ownership

Certain types of content are made available through the Hub App. “Content” as used in these Terms of Use means, collectively, the text and data made available through the App, excluding User Content. “User Content” as used in these Terms of Use means, collectively, the text, messages, content and other information which Users submit to the App. The Company reserves the right to remove and permanently delete any Content or User Content from the App without notice.

12. Warranties, Indemnities & Limitations of Liability.

WARRANTIES & DISCLAIMER

    12.1 Mutual Warranties.

HUBDM DOES NOT CONTROL OR VET CONTENT AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT USERS POST, TRANSMIT, OR SHARE ON OR THROUGH THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES.

        (d) NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED FROM US OR ELSEWHERE WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT.

INDEMNITIES

    12.4 Indemnification by HubDM. Subject to Customer’s compliance with Section 9.6, HubDM will defend Customer from and against any and all third-party claims that the use of the Enterprise Services as permitted hereunder directly infringes a valid U.S. or Canada patent or copyright or misappropriates a third party’s trade secret (a “Claim”) and will indemnify Customer for any damages awarded by final non-appealable judgment against, and for reasonable legal fees incurred by, Customer in connection with any such Claim.

HubDM will have no liability for any Claim to the extent it arises from:

(i) a modification of the Enterprise Services by or at the direction of any person other than HubDM;

(ii) use of the Enterprise Services in violation of this Agreement or applicable law;

(iii) use of the Enterprise Services after HubDM notifies Customer to discontinue use because of an infringement or misappropriation claim;

(iv) the combination, operation, or use of the Enterprise Services with any other software, program, or device not provided or specified by HubDM to the extent such infringement would not have arisen but for such combination, operation, or use; or

(v) use of the Enterprise Services in a manner that is inconsistent with their intended use.

For the avoidance of doubt, HubDM’s indemnification obligations in this Section 9.4 will not apply to third-party content, open source software, Social Networks, Partner Services or other Third-Party Services accessed through the Enterprise Services, or to Customer Content or Mentions.

If the Enterprise Services or any part thereof have become, or in HubDM’s opinion are likely to become, the subject of any Claim, HubDM may at its option and expense:

(1) procure for Customer the right to continue using the Enterprise Services as set forth hereunder;

(2) replace or modify the Enterprise Services or applicable functionalities to make them non-infringing; or

(3) if options (1) or (2) are not reasonably practicable, terminate either or both this Agreement or the Authorization Form or Online Order for such Enterprise Services and refund to Customer any unearned Fees that Customer paid in advance for such Enterprise Services.

This Section 9.4 sets forth HubDM’s sole liability (and Customer’s sole remedy) regarding infringement or misappropriation of third-party rights.

    12.5 Indemnification by Customer. Customer will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless HubDM, its Affiliates, and its or their directors, officers, employees, agents, shareholders, successors and assigns from and against all claims, losses, damages, penalties, liability, and costs, including reasonable legal fees, of any kind or nature that are incurred in connection with or arising out of a third-party claim: (a) alleging that Customer Content, Ads Content, or Submitted Content infringes or violates the intellectual property rights, privacy rights, or any other rights of a third party or violates any applicable law; (b) arising from Customer’s breach of Section 3.1; or (c) relating to, or arising from, Customer’s use of any Third-Party Services (including Customer’s breach of any terms or conditions applicable to any Third-Party Services).

    12.6 Indemnification Procedure. The indemnified party will: (a) give written notice of the claim to the indemnifying party promptly and in any event no later than ten (10) days after the indemnified party receives the claim; (b) give the indemnifying party sole control of the defense and settlement of the claim (provided that the indemnifying party may not enter into any settlement, compromise or consent to judgment with respect to any claim without the indemnified party’s prior written consent unless such settlement, compromise or consent to judgment unconditionally releases the indemnified party of all liability); and (c) provide the indemnifying party with reasonable cooperation and assistance at the indemnifying party’s expense.

LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY

    12.7 Maximum Liability. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN SECTIONS 9.7 THROUGH 9.9, AND NOT INCLUDING CUSTOMER’S OBLIGATION TO PAY ALL FEES OWED TO HUBDM HEREUNDER, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER PARTY FOR ALL CLAIMS OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER BY STATUTE, CONTRACT, TORT, OR UNDER ANY OTHER THEORY OF LIABILITY, EXCEED THE FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER FOR THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES SUBJECT TO THE CLAIM DURING THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE DATE ON WHICH THE CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE. FOR CLARITY, THE CALCULATION OF EACH PARTY’S LIABILITY UNDER THIS SECTION 9.7 EXCLUDES ANY FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER TO A THIRD PARTY OR FOR ANY PARTNER SERVICES, EVEN WHERE HUBDM’S ENTERPRISE SERVICES ARE BUNDLED WITH OR OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN CONJUNCTION WITH PARTNER SERVICESTHE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THIS SECTION 9.7 ALSO APPLY TO OUR AFFILIATES AND THE DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS OF HUBDM AND OUR AFFILIATES (THE “HUBDM PARTIES”) AND TO CLAIMS BROUGHT BASED ON ANY CAUSE OF ACTION, INCLUDING BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE OR OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY.

    12.8 Excluded Damages.

        (a) TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER PARTY, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OR LICENSORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL OR DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE ENTERPRISE SERVICES OR ANY OTHER ASPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

        (b) The Enterprise Services support multi-factor authentication, and the Acceptable Use Rules require you to maintain the confidentiality of your passwords or other login credentials for the Enterprise Services.

    12.10 Basis of Bargain. THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF SECTIONS 9.7 THROUGH 9.9 IS TO ALLOCATE THE RISKS UNDER THESE TERMS BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND LIMIT THEIR POTENTIAL LIABILITY GIVEN THE FEES CHARGED UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHICH WOULD HAVE BEEN SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER IF HUBDM WERE TO ASSUME ANY FURTHER LIABILITY. THE PARTIES HAVE RELIED ON THESE LIMITATIONS IN DETERMINING WHETHER TO ENTER INTO THESE TERMS.

It is important for you to review this Agreement before using our Enterprise Services. The updated Agreement will be effective as of the time of posting, or on such later date as may be specified in the updated Agreement, and your continued use of the Enterprise Services after any such changes are effective will constitute your consent to such changes.

The revised Terms of Use shall be effective immediately after they are posted on the App (unless a longer notice period is required by law). After any such change, your continued use of the App implies your acceptance of the new Terms of Use.

If any provision of these Terms of Use shall be deemed unlawful, void or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms of Use but shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

15.  Governing Law and Dispute Resolution.

       (a) The laws of the State of Texas applicable in United States will govern any dispute, cause of action or claim arising out of this Agreement or your use of our Hub App or Enterprise Services, including against any HubDM Party (“Dispute”), without giving effect to conflict-of-law principles.

        (b) If you breach this Agreement or violate our rights or another person’s rights, in addition to any other remedy, we may ask a court for an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and you will reimburse us for our reasonable legal fees associated therewith.

        (c) If you have any kind of Dispute with us, the exclusive means of resolving it will be by confidential, binding arbitration before a single arbitrator chosen by you and HubDM. You will give notice of your Dispute to us in writing. The arbitration will take place in the State of Texas. The arbitrator will have the right to decide how the costs should be divided between us. The arbitrator will have the right to accept whatever kind of evidence they think is appropriate and will have the right to make whatever award they consider fair and equitable, based on legal and equitable principles, including giving an order such as an injunction (to stop one of us from doing something) or an order that you or we pay damages to the other.

19. Arbitration

You and the Company agree that except as otherwise stated, the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any dispute and claim relating to or arising out of these Terms of Use shall be final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. To the extent that either of us has in any manner infringed upon or violated the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret rights, or you have otherwise violated any of the user conduct rules set forth, then the parties acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought.

Arbitration under this Terms of Use shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, in the case of consumer disputes, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ( the “AAA Consumer Rules”) (collectively the “AAA Rules”). The location of the arbitration and the allocation of costs and fees for such arbitration shall be determined in accordance with AAA Rules and shall be subject to the limitations provided for in the AAA Consumer Rules (for consumer disputes). If such costs are determined to be excessive in a consumer dispute, the Company will be responsible for paying all arbitration fees and arbitrator compensation in excess of what is deemed reasonable. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, NO ARBITRATION OR CLAIM UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE SHALL BE JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM INVOLVING ANY OTHER CURRENT OR FORMER USER OF THE SITE, AND NO CLASS ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE PERMITTED. In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the App and/or the Service (including your visit to or use of the App and/or the Service) be instituted more than three (3) years after the cause of action arose.
