PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND EACH PROVISION. THESE TERMS OF USE INCLUDE A MANDATORY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT AND A CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER REQUIREMENT, SO ANY DISPUTES WILL NEED TO BE RESOLVED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, RATHER THAN BY MEANS OF JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.

​

By using our Services, you certify that you are of legal age to form a binding contract, and legally able to enter into a binding contract. If you are using or accessing Buddio on behalf of an organization or corporation, you certify that you are authorized to enter into this binding contract on behalf of that organization or corporation. If this is the case, with the exception of this paragraph, “you” and “user” in these Terms of Use will refer to that organization.

You are not permitted to use or access the Services if we have previously terminated your user account.

Buddio reserves the right, at any time, to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Services or any part thereof with or without notice. You agree that Buddio will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services or any part thereof.

The Buddio walk App pairs you with a virtual walking Buddy for motivational purposes only; the Buddio walk App should not be used to increase personal safety.

Use of our Services does not create a medical professional/patient relationship of any kind.

Arbitration and Class-Action/Jury Trial Waiver

READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM BUDDIO.

 

For any dispute with Buddio, you agree to first contact us at support@buddio.io and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that Buddio has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided below) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms of Use, or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by JAMS, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect for JAMS, except as provided herein. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com. The arbitration will be conducted in New York, New York, unless you and Buddio agree otherwise. JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS; (ii) the award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (iii) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing Buddio from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, Intellectual Property Rights or other proprietary rights.

 

CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER: WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED OUR SERVICES FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU AND BUDDIO ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.

FEDERAL LAW, SOME STATES, PROVINCES AND OTHER JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION AND LIMITATIONS OF CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

Limitation of Liability

WITHOUT NEGATING OR LIMITING THE FOREGOING, YOU AGREE THAT THE LIABILITY OF BUDDIO AND ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR AFFILIATES ARISING OUT OF ANY KIND OF LEGAL CLAIM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO OUR SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL SUBSCRIPTION FEES, IF ANY, YOU HAVE PAID TO BUDDIO FOR USE OF OUR SERVICES IN THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS OR $100, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.

BECAUSE SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN DAMAGES, THE ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN SUCH CASES, OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE IN QUESTION.
