Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY SINCE IT LIMITS THE LIABILITY OF SOCIAL EXPLORER ENTITIES TO YOU.

The “Social Explorer Entities” means Social Explorer Inc., and any subsidiaries, affiliates, related companies, suppliers, licensOrs and partners, and the directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives of each of them. Each provision below applies to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law.

DISCLAIMERS

THE SERVICES AND ALL INCLUDED CONTENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE SOCIAL EXPLORER ENTITIES SPECIFICALLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, ACCURACY AND COMPLETENESS, UNINTERRPUTED OR ERROR-FREE SERVICE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. THE SOCIAL EXPLORER ENTITIES FURTHER DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL LIABILITY RELATED TO YOUR ACCESS OR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY RELATED CONTENT. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT ANY ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE SERVICES OR SUCH CONTENT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PROVIDED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE SOCIAL EXPLORER ENTITIES BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, THE SOCIAL EXPLORER SITE, ANY WEBSITES LINKED TO IT, ANY CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE OR SUCH OTHER WEBSITES. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, YOU AGREE THAT THE SOCIAL EXPLORER ENTITIES SPECIFICALLY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERSONAL INJURY, PAIN, SUFFERING, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF THE SOCIAL EXPLORER ENTITIES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR SUCH DAMAGES ARE FORESEEABLE. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND THE SOCIAL EXPLORER SITE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK.

Indemnification

You agree to fully indemnify, defend and hold the Social Explorer Entities and their directors, officers, employees, consultants and other representatives harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, judgments, awards, losses, costs, and other expenses or fees (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that directly or indirectly relate to or arise out of or from (a) your violation of these Terms; (b) any claim of infringement or misappropriation of intellectual property or other proprietary rights including, but not limited, to you use of Third Party Content; (c) your use of the Services; and/or (d) your negligent or willful misconduct.

Dispute Resolution

If you have a dispute with Social Explorer, you agree to contact us through “Submit a Request” button, available at https://support.socialexplorer.com, to attempt to resolve the issue informally first. If we are not able to resolve the dispute informally, then this section will govern any legal dispute that relates to the Services.

a. Binding Arbitration. You and Social Explorer agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or to your use of the Services (collectively, the “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights. This means that you and Social Explorer both agree to waive the right to a trial by jury. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may bring a claim against Social Explorer in “small claims” court, instead of by arbitration, but only if the claim is eligible under the rules of the small claims court and is brought in an individual, non-class, and non-representative basis, and only for so long as it remains in the small claims court and in an individual, non-class, and non-representative basis.

b. Class Action Waiver. You and Social Explorer agree that any proceedings to resolve Disputes will be conducted on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. This means that you and Social Explorer both agree to waive the right to participate as a plaintiff as a class member in any class action proceeding. Further, unless you and Social Explorer agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator in any Disputes may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not preside over any form of class action proceeding.

c. Arbitration Administration and Rules. The arbitration will be administered in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. (The AAA Rules are available at http://www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879).

d. Arbitration Process. A party who desires to initiate the arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of New York and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of arbitrators with relevant experience. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within 7 days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

e. Arbitration Location and Procedure. Unless you and Social Explorer agree otherwise, the seat of the arbitration shall be in New York, New York. If your claim does not exceed USD$10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and Social Explorer submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing and the arbitrator then determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds USD$10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. Hearings may be conducted by telephone or video conference, if requested and agreed to by the parties.

f. Arbitrator’s Decision and Governing Law. The arbitrator shall apply New York law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator will render an award within the timeframe specified in the AAA Rules. Judgment on the arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Any award of damages by an arbitrator must be consistent with the “Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability” section above. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief in favor of the claimant only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim.

g. Fees. Each party’s responsibility to pay the arbitration filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will depend on the circumstances of the arbitration and are set forth in the AAA Rules.

Severability; Waiver

If you do not comply with these Terms, and we do not take immediate action, this does not indicate that we relinquish any rights that we may have (such as taking action in the future).

Force Majeure

We are not liable by reason of any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations on account of events beyond the reasonable control of a party, which may include denial-of-service attacks, a failure by a third-party hosting provider or utility provider, strikes, shortages, riots, fires, acts of God, war, terrorism, and governmental action.

Entire Agreement

The then-current Terms, including (a) any related policies and terms referenced in the Terms and (b) any additional terms, are the entire agreement between you and Social Explorer regarding the Services. The Terms may not be modified without the consent of a duly authorized representative of Social Explorer, and will supersede and prevail over any terms or conditions you may include with any purchase order or other transaction document or communication with us, regardless of whether Social Explorer signs them or fails to object to them. This “Entire Agreement” section shall survive any expiration or termination of your relationship with Social Explorer.
