Dispute Resolution

Arbitration

The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. Except for disputes relating to the H4YC’s intellectual property (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents), all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement and your use of the H4YC Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with its provisions and procedures for consumer-related disputes, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitration shall be in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The arbitrator, and not any court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court; provided, however, that the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies, or awards that conflict with this Agreement. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. You and H4YC hereby expressly waive trial by jury. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person’s account, if H4YC is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. You agree that any claim you may have arising out of or related to your relationship with H4YC and these Terms must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, your claim is permanently barred.

Class-Action Waiver

The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only, and not as a class action or other representative action. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class-action waiver set forth in this section is void or unenforceable for any reason, or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

Exception—Litigation of Small-Claims-Court Claims

Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

Choice of Law and Forum

All matters relating to your access to or use of the H4YC Services, including all disputes, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, USA, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS DO NOT APPLY. Subject to the Section entitled “Dispute Resolution”, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue with respect to any action or suit arising out of or pertaining to the subject matter hereof shall be the courts of competent jurisdiction located in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, USA. Any claim arising out of or in connection with your use of or inability to use the H4YC Services or its Content, products or services must be brought within one (1) year after the event or such claim is barred.

General

You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship exists between you and H4YC as a result of the Terms or your use of the H4YC Services. The Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and H4YC with respect to your use of the H4YC Services. The failure of H4YC to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms remain in full force and effect. H4YC’s notice to you via email, notices, posts, or links on the H4YC Services shall constitute acceptable notice to you under the Terms. We are not responsible for your failure to receive notice if email is quarantined by your email security system (e.g., “junk” or “spam” folder) or if you fail to update your email address. Notice will be considered received forty-eight hours after it is sent if transmitted via email or regular mail. In the event that notice is provided via links displayed in connection with the Services, then it will be considered received twenty-four hours after it is first displayed. Section titles and headings in the Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved. You acknowledge that Distributor and its affiliates and subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms, Distributor will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

Updates and Product-Specific Terms

Updates to these Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms by (i) posting revised Terms on and/or through the H4YC Services, and/or (ii) providing notice to you of material changes to the Terms, generally via email where practicable, and otherwise through the H4YC Services (such as through a notification on our home page or in our applications). Modifications will not apply retroactively unless required by law. We may sometimes ask you to review and to explicitly agree to or reject a revised version of the Terms. In such cases, modifications will be effective at the time of your agreement to the modified version of the Terms. If you do not agree at that time, you are not permitted to use the H4YC Services. In cases where we do not ask for your explicit agreement to a modified version of the Terms, the modified version of the Terms will become effective as of the date specified in the Terms. Your use of the H4YC Services following that date constitutes your acceptance of the terms and conditions of the Terms as modified. If you do not agree to the modifications, you are not permitted to use, and should discontinue your use of, the Services.

Product-Specific Terms

We may also require you to agree to additional terms, rules, policies, guidelines, or other conditions (collectively, “Product-Specific Terms”) that are specific to certain H4YC Services. In such cases, you may be required to expressly consent to Product-Specific Terms. For instance, you might need to check a box or click on a button marked “I agree.” If any of the Product-Specific Terms are different than the Terms, the Product-Specific Terms will supplement, amend, or supersede the Terms, but only with respect to the subject matter of the Product-Specific Terms.

H4YC may make improvements and/or changes in the H4YC Services, products, mobile applications, features, programs, and prices described at any time and for any reason in its sole discretion. The mobile application may download and install upgrades, updates and additional features in order to improve, enhance, and further develop the H4YC Services.
