Please be sure to state that you are requesting a copy of the particular communication.

(e) You can also contact us via email at [email protected] to unsubscribe from further communications, which will take effect within a reasonable time after we receive your request.  Unsubscribing from communication may impact your ability to use the Products.

(f) We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to discontinue the provision of your electronic communications, or to terminate or change the terms and conditions on which we provide electronic communications. We will provide you with notice of any such termination or change as required by law.

 

13.8 NOTICES

Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all notices given by you to us must be given to Spot-It at [email protected]. We may give notice to you at the e-mail address you provide to us when you register, or in any of the ways specified in section 13.7 above. Notice will be deemed received and properly served immediately when posted on the Products or when an e-mail or other electronic communication is sent. In proving the service of any notice via email, it will be sufficient to prove that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

 

13.9 ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms and any document expressly referred to in them constitute the whole agreement between us and supersede all previous discussions, correspondence, negotiations, previous arrangement, understanding or agreement between us relating to their subject matter. We each acknowledge that neither of us relies on, or will have any remedies in respect of, any representation or warranty (whether made innocently or negligently) that is not set out in these Terms or the documents referred to in them. Each of us agrees that our only liability in respect of those representations and warranties that are set out in this agreement (whether made innocently or negligently) will be for breach of contract. Nothing in this section limits or excludes any liability for fraud.

 

13.10 THIRD PARTY RIGHTS

A person who is not party to these Terms will not have any rights under or in connection with these Terms.

 

13.11 LIMITATION OF SPOT-IT’S LIABILITY

(a) We will use reasonable endeavors to remedy faults in the Products. If we fail to comply with these Terms, your sole and exclusive remedy and our entire obligation and liability to you will be strictly limited to the actual amount paid by you for the Products in question. In addition, we will not be liable for:

(i) Faulty operation of computers during the registration process or during completion of a subscription or during the transmission of any data and/or for incorrect or overly slow transmission of data by the internet provider and/or any damage that occurs due to information submitted by you not being received by us or not being received promptly or not being considered, as a consequence of technical faults with our software or hardware (whether or not they are within or outside of our control).

(ii) Any loss or damage due to viruses or other malicious software that may infect your Device, computer equipment, software, data or other property caused by you accessing, using or downloading from the Products, or from transmissions via emails or attachments received from us.

(iii) Any use of websites linked to the Products but operated by third parties.

(b) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SPOT-IT AND ITS AFFILIATES, SUPPLIERS, CLIENTS OR LICENSORS (COLLECTIVELY, THE “PROTECTED ENTITIES”) SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES OR LOSSES, WHETHER DIRECT OR INDIRECT, ARISING FROM OR DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY RELATED TO, THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE, THE PRODUCTS OR THE CONTENT, MATERIALS AND FUNCTIONS RELATED THERETO, YOUR PROVISION OF INFORMATION VIA THE PRODUCTS, OR LOST BUSINESS OR LOST SALES, OR ANY ERRORS, VIRUSES OR BUGS CONTAINED IN THE PRODUCTS, EVEN IF SUCH PROTECTED ENTITY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE PROTECTED ENTITIES BE LIABLE FOR OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CONTENT POSTED, TRANSMITTED, EXCHANGED OR RECEIVED BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY USER OR OTHER PERSON OR THROUGHOUT THE PRODUCTS. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE PROTECTED ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR TORT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE OR OTHERWISE) ARISING FROM THESE TERMS OF USE OR YOUR USE OF THE PRODUCTS EXCEED, IN THE AGGREGATE, THE ACTUAL AMOUNT, IF ANY, PAID BY YOU TO SPOT-IT FOR YOUR USE OF THE PRODUCTS IN QUESTION.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, you assume full responsibility for your own use of the Products. In no event shall Spot-It be liable to you, your heirs, or assigns or to any third party for any loss, death, damage, or bodily injury that you suffer, or that you cause to any third party, in connection with your use of the Products or other activities you undertake in connection with your use of the Products.  Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

 

13.12 DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND BINDING ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY, AS THEY REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH SPOT-IT, AND LIMIT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM SPOT-IT INCLUDING A LIMITATION ON THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE CLAIMS IN A COURT OR BEFORE A JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WITH RESPECT TO A CLAIM.

(a) All disputes arising out of, relating to, or in connection with these Terms or your use of the Products that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court will be resolved through binding arbitration on an individual basis, except that you and Spot-It are not required to arbitrate any dispute in which either party seeks equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents.

(b) Arbitration will be initiated through the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. The rules of the arbitral forum will govern all aspects of this arbitration, except to the extent those rules conflict with these Terms. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration will be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator.  If the claim is for $10,000 or less, the party initiating the arbitration may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted (1) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (2) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing; or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county of your billing address. In the case of an in-person hearing, the proceedings will be conducted at a location which is reasonably convenient for both parties with due consideration of the ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by the arbitration institution.  Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation will be limited to those fees set forth in the AAA Rules with the remainder paid by Spot-It. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the arbitration is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse Spot-It for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the way the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

(c) The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to decide the jurisdiction of the arbitrator, including any challenge that the arbitration provision or the Agreement is void, voidable, or otherwise invalid. The arbitrator shall also have the exclusive authority to determine the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Spot-It. The dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award all remedies available under applicable law, the arbitral forum's rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and Spot-It.

(d) Except where not permitted by law, you and Spot-It waive any constitutional and statutory rights to go to court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury. Rather, you and Spot-It elect to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. In any litigation between you and Spot-It over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, you and Spot-It waive all rights to a jury trial and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.

(e) Class Action Waiver. WHERE PERMITTED UNDER THE APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND SPOT-IT AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Spot-It are entitled to arbitration; instead, all claims and disputes will be resolved in a court as set forth in section 13.13 below.

 

(f) Opt-out. YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. If you do so, neither you nor Spot-It can force the other to arbitrate. To opt-out, you must notify Spot-It in writing no later than 30 days after first becoming subject to this arbitration agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, and the email address you used to set up your Spot-It account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement. You must send your opt-out notice to [email protected].

(g) Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Spot-It may bring an individual action in small claims court.

(h) Public Injunction Exclusion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may pursue a claim for public injunctive relief either in court or through arbitration.

(i) Arbitration Agreement Survival. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Spot-It.

 13.13 EXCLUSIVE VENUE

To the extent the parties are permitted under these Terms to initiate litigation in a court, both you and Spot-It agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to the Terms or the use of the Products will be litigated exclusively in a court located in Camden County in the State of New Jersey having appropriate subject matter jurisdiction. You and Spot-It consent to the personal jurisdiction of any such court.

13.14 CHOICE OF LAW

Except to the extent that they are preempted by U.S. federal law, the laws of New Jersey will govern these Terms and any disputes arising out of them, including tort claims, but excluding its conflict-of-laws principles.

13.15 SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unenforceable, then that provision will be severed from these Terms but will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

These Terms are effective and were last updated on Arpil 21, 2023.
