While we strive to minimize service disruptions, there may be instances where changes or discontinuation of third-party services result in alterations to the output you experience, temporary unavailability of certain features, or the necessity to transition to alternative services.

We disclaim any liability for any changes, disruptions, or losses arising from modifications or discontinuation of third-party services.

Beta Services

This section governs your use of Services or features that the Owner offers on an alpha, preview, early access, or beta basis ("Beta Services"). Beta Services are provided "as-is" to enable testing and evaluation and are expressly excluded from any indemnification obligations the Owner may have to you.

The Owner makes no representations or warranties concerning Beta Services, including any guarantee that such services will become generally available, or that they will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that Content will be secure or not lost or damaged. To the extent permitted by law, the Owner expressly disclaims all warranties for Beta Services, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or quiet enjoyment, and any warranties arising out of any course of dealing or usage of trade.

Disclaimer of Warranties

This Application is provided strictly on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Use of the Service is at Users’ own risk. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Owner expressly disclaims all conditions, representations, and warranties — whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including, but not limited to, any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of third-party rights. No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by user from owner or through the Service will create any warranty not expressly stated herein.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Owner, its subsidiaries, affiliates, licensors, officers, directors, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees do not warrant that the content is accurate, reliable or correct; that the Service will meet Users’ requirements; that the Service will be available at any particular time or location, uninterrupted or secure; that any defects or errors will be corrected; or that the Service is free of viruses or other harmful components. Any content downloaded or otherwise obtained through the use of the Service is downloaded at users own risk and users shall be solely responsible for any damage to Users’ computer system or mobile device or loss of data that results from such download or Users’ use of the Service.

The Owner does not warrant, endorse, guarantee, or assume responsibility for any product or service advertised or offered by a third party through the Service or any hyperlinked website or service, and the Owner shall not be a party to or in any way monitor any transaction between Users and third-party providers of products or services.

The Service may become inaccessible or it may not function properly with Users’ web browser, mobile device, and/or operating system. The owner cannot be held liable for any perceived or actual damages arising from Service content, operation, or use of this Service.

Federal law, some states, and other jurisdictions, do not allow the exclusion and limitations of certain implied warranties. The above exclusions may not apply to Users. This Agreement gives Users specific legal rights, and Users may also have other rights which vary from state to state. The disclaimers and exclusions under this agreement shall not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

Limitations of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall the Owner, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees be liable for

  • any indirect, punitive, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including without limitation damages for loss of profits, goodwill, use, data or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to the use of, or inability to use, the Service; and
  • any damage, loss or injury resulting from hacking, tampering or other unauthorized access or use of the Service or User account or the information contained therein;

In no event shall the Owner, and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, agents, co-branders, partners, suppliers and employees be liable for any claims, proceedings, liabilities, obligations, damages, losses or costs in an amount exceeding the amount paid by User to the Owner hereunder in the preceding 12 months, or the period of duration of this agreement between the Owner and User, whichever is shorter.

This limitation of liability section shall apply to the fullest extent permitted by law in the applicable jurisdiction whether the alleged liability is based on contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, or any other basis, even if company has been advised of the possibility of such damage.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, therefore the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to User. The terms give User specific legal rights, and User may also have other rights which vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. The disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations of liability under the terms shall not apply to the extent prohibited by applicable law.

Indemnification

Severability

Should any provision of these Terms be deemed or become invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the invalidity or unenforceability of such provision shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.

US Users

Any such invalid or unenforceable provision will be interpreted, construed and reformed to the extent reasonably required to render it valid, enforceable and consistent with its original intent.

In case of failure to do so, the void, invalid or unenforceable provisions shall be replaced by the applicable statutory provisions, if so permitted or stated under the applicable law.

Without prejudice to the above, the nullity, invalidity or the impossibility to enforce a particular provision of these Terms shall not nullify the entire Agreement, unless the severed provisions are essential to the Agreement, or of such importance that the parties would not have entered into the contract if they had known that the provision would not be valid, or in cases where the remaining provisions would translate into an unacceptable hardship on any of the parties.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of British Columbia, Canada. You irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts in that location.

Exception for Consumers in Europe

The above does not apply to any Users that qualify as European Consumers, nor to Consumers based in the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Norway or Iceland.

Dispute resolution

YOU AGREE TO THE FOLLOWING MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER PROVISIONS:

MANDATORY ARBITRATION

The User and the Owner agree that any past, present, or future disputes relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved through final and binding arbitration, unless the User opts out by filling out a designated form within 30 days of agreeing to these Terms. This arbitration will be governed by the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (ICC), conducted in English, and take place in British Columbia, Canada.

Pre-Arbitration Negotiation and User Complaints

Before initiating formal legal proceedings, both parties agree to attempt to resolve any dispute amicably. Users are kindly asked to contact the Owner at the specified contact details, providing a brief description of the dispute and, if applicable, details of the related order, purchase, or account. The Owner will process the complaint without undue delay and aims to resolve it within 21 days of receipt. If no resolution is achieved within 60 days, either party may proceed with arbitration. The statute of limitations for the claim will be paused during this 60-day period. For EU residents, the European Commission offers an online dispute resolution platform at European Commission ODR Platform.

Arbitration Provider

Arbitration will be managed by a mutually agreed upon arbitration provider. Both parties agree to share the cost of arbitration fees equally, unless the arbitrator determines that the User cannot afford the fees, in which case the Owner will cover them.

Arbitration Procedures

The arbitration may occur via telephone, written submissions, video conferencing, or in person in British Columbia Canada, governed by the existing rules of the chosen Arbitration Provider. Issues concerning the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this section will be determined by a court within the applicable jurisdiction.

Exceptions to Arbitration

This arbitration section does not require arbitration of the following claims: (i) individual claims brought in small claims court; and (ii) injunctive or other equitable relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or intellectual property infringement.

NO CLASS ACTIONS

Disputes must be brought on an individual basis only, and may not be brought as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed. If for any reason a dispute proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, each party knowingly and irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding, or counterclaim. This does not prevent either party from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.

Mass Filings

If, at any time, 30 or more similar demands for arbitration are asserted against Owner or related parties by the same or coordinated counsel or entities (“Mass Filing”), we will seek an independent third party to randomly assign sequential numbers to each of the Mass Filings. Claims numbered 1-10 will be the “Initial Test Cases” and will proceed to arbitration first. The arbitrators will render a final award for the Initial Test Cases within 120 days of the initial pre-hearing conference, unless the claims are resolved in advance or the parties agree to extend the deadline. The parties will then have 90 days (the “Mediation Period”) to resolve the remaining cases in mediation based on the awards from the Initial Test Cases. If the parties are unable to resolve the outstanding claims during this time, the parties may choose to opt out of the arbitration process and proceed in court by providing written notice to the other party within 60 days after the Mediation Period. Otherwise, the remaining cases will be arbitrated in their assigned order. Any statute of limitations will be tolled from the time the Initial Test Cases are chosen until your case is chosen as described above.

Special Statute of Limitations

Any arbitration must be commenced within 2 years after the party asserting the claim first knows or should know of the act giving rise to the claim, unless otherwise mandated by law.

Confidentiality and Publicity

Except as required to enforce the arbitrator’s decision, neither the User nor the Owner shall make any public announcement or comment concerning the arbitration.

Severability

If any part of this section is found to be unenforceable, the remainder shall continue in full force and effect. If the unenforceable aspect allows for class arbitrations or mass filings, then this entire section will become null and void.
