We may, at our discretion, update these Terms at any time.

Neither these Terms nor your access to our Services transfers to you or any third party any right, title, or interest in or to such intellectual property rights, except for the limited access rights expressly set forth above under the heading “Use of Our Services”, Subsection A (License). We and our suppliers reserve all rights not granted in these Terms. There are no implied licenses granted under these Terms.

Modifications
We reserve the right, at any time, to modify, suspend, or discontinue our Services (in whole or in part) with or without notice to you. You agree that we will not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of our Services or any part thereof.

No Support or Maintenance
You acknowledge and agree that while we may endeavor to provide you with customer support in connection with any inquiries, we have no obligation to do so or otherwise provide you with any support or maintenance in connection with our Services.

Feedback
If you elect to provide or make available to us any suggestions, comments, ideas, improvements or other feedback relating to our Services (“Feedback”), we shall own and be free to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, create derivative works from, publicly perform, publicly display, distribute, make, have made, assign, pledge, transfer or otherwise grant rights in your Feedback in any form and any medium (whether now known or later developed), without credit or compensation to you.

Purchases and Subscriptions

For certain types of accounts, we may charge a fee, such as an account fee or subscription fee. If you sign up for an account with an associated fee or purchase any product or service made available through our Services (a “Purchase”), whether under a subscription or otherwise, you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to your purchase including payment and billing information (“Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that: (i) all Payment Information you provide to us is and will be true, correct, and complete; and (ii) you have the legal right to use any credit card(s) or other payment method(s) in connection with any Purchase and the Payment Information you provide. Purchases are void where prohibited by law.

Third-Party Payment Services
We may employ the use of third-party services for the purpose of facilitating payment and the completion of Purchases. By submitting any Payment Information, you grant us the right to use and provide such information to these third parties subject to our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge and agree that in the event the third-party payment processor experiences a data breach that affects your information through no fault of us, we will in no way be responsible or liable to you for any such breach. Should the mechanism of payment provided initially be declined for insufficient funds or any other reason, we reserve the right to attempt to recharge the mechanism of payment in full or in lesser installments of the initially incurred charge. You will be solely responsible for all overdraft fees and/or penalties that may be assessed by your payment provider.

Fees
All fees for Purchases are payable in accordance with the payment terms in effect at the time of the Purchase. We may offer promotional trial subscriptions to access our Services for free or at special discounted prices. If you sign up for a trial subscription, your rights to use our Services are limited by the terms of such trial and will terminate or renew according to the terms of your trial arrangement and/or any applicable additional terms. Please note that we do not provide price protection or refunds for existing subscribers in the event of a price drop or promotional offering for new subscribers. Unless otherwise provided in these Terms, all Purchases are non-refundable.

Termination or Suspension
We reserve the right to discontinue our Services or suspend or terminate your access to our Services, including to your account or Your Content, at any time, without notice, for any reason and without any obligation to you or any third party. If any information that you provide, or if we have reasonable grounds to suspect that any information that you provide, is false, inaccurate, or otherwise violates these Terms, we may suspend or terminate your account or deny you access to all or part of our Services. Any suspension or termination will not affect your obligations to us, including any payment obligations to us, and you will not be entitled to a refund of any payments previously made. Upon suspension or termination of your access to our Services, or upon notice from us, your license to use our Services will terminate immediately. 

Subscription Renewal
BY MAKING A PURCHASE UNDER A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY RENEW YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AUTOMATICALLY FOR THE SAME SUBSCRIPTION TERM ON THE DAY AFTER YOUR PREVIOUS SUBSCRIPTION ENDS, AND YOU AUTHORIZE US TO CHARGE YOU FOR THE SUBSCRIPTION TERM AT THE THEN-CURRENT PRICE, UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO ITS RENEWAL DATE. We will charge your credit card (or the other method of payment initially used by you) each year, month, or other applicable period (depending on the term that you selected) for the then-current applicable price.

Subscription Cancellation
If you purchased your subscription through a third party, such as Apple’s iTunes App Store or Google Play Store, you must follow the cancellation instructions provided by such third party. Removing the heybaby application from your computer, mobile phone, or other wireless device (“Device”) will not automatically cancel your subscription.

For all subscriptions, you will continue to have access to your Purchase for the period of time that has already been prepaid. After you cancel your subscription, we will not charge you any subscription fees after the expiration of your then-current subscription period. Please note we do not provide full or partial refunds for prepaid sums other than as described elsewhere in these Terms. In any event, you will be able to continue to use our Services throughout the remainder of the subscription period for which you have already paid.

Because our Services may be utilized without a subscription, canceling your subscription does not remove your profile from our Services. If you wish to terminate your account, you must follow the procedures described above under the heading “Accounts”, Subsection C (Account Termination).

Free Trials
If you sign up for a free trial and do not cancel before the end of the trial period, your trial may convert into a paid subscription and you will be charged at the then-current price for such subscription. Once your free trial converts to a paid subscription, your paid subscription will continue to automatically renew at the end of each period as described above under the heading “Purchase and Subscriptions”, Subsection D (Subscription Renewal). To avoid charges for a new subscription period, you must cancel before the end of the then-current subscription period or free trial period as described above under the heading “Purchase and Subscriptions”, Subsection E (Subscription Cancellation). Deleting your account or deleting the heybaby application from your Device does not cancel your free trial.

Refunds
Generally, all charges for Purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods.

For users residing in Arizona, Colorado, California, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, and Wisconsin, the terms below apply:
• You may cancel your subscription, without penalty or obligation, at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed. In the event that you die before the end of your subscription period, your estate shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription which is allocable to the period after your death. In the event that you become disabled (such that you are unable to use heybaby) before the end of your subscription period, you shall be entitled to a refund of that portion of any payment you had made for your subscription which is allocable to the period after your disability by providing heybaby notice in the same manner as you request a refund as described below in the next paragraph.
• To request a refund for payments made through a third party, such as Apple’s iTunes App Store or Google Play Store, you must follow the cancellation instructions provided by such third party. 

Taxes
The payments described in the subsections under the heading “Purchases and Subscriptions” do not include any Sales Tax (defined below) that may be due in connection with any Purchases. If we determine that we have a legal obligation to collect Sales Tax from you in connection with any Purchases, we will collect such Sales Tax in addition to any applicable payments. If any Purchases, or payments for any Purchases, are subject to any Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to us, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority. As used herein, “Sales Tax” means any sales or use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.

All rights to User Content, including all intellectual property rights, shall remain the exclusive property of the user who created such User Content. Because we do not control User Content, you acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for any User Content.

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other users of our Services. While we strive to foster a respectful and tolerant community, we are not responsible for the behavior or conduct of any user of our Services.

Copyright Infringement Policy and Reporting Procedure

We respect the intellectual property of others and ask that users of our Services do the same. In connection with our Services, we have adopted and implemented a policy respecting copyright law that provides for the removal of any infringing materials and for the termination, in appropriate circumstances, of users of our Services who are repeat infringers of intellectual property rights, including copyrights. If you believe that one of our users is, through the use of our Services, unlawfully infringing the copyright(s) in a work, and wish to have the allegedly infringing material removed, the following information in the form of a written notification (pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)) must be provided to us at support@heybaby.com, with the subject line: “Copyright Infringement”:
1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works;
3. Identification of the material claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access disabled and information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to locate the material;
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to contact you, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail;
5. A statement that you have a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and
6. A statement that, under penalty of perjury, the information in the notification is accurate and you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.

Please note that, pursuant to 17 U.S.C. § 512(f), any misrepresentation of material fact (falsities) in a written notification automatically subjects the complaining party to liability for any damages, costs and attorney’s fees incurred by us in connection with the written notification and allegation of copyright infringement.

If you must send your notice by physical mail, you may do so by including the same information as indicated above by sending a notice to the address identified below under the heading “Contact Us” but please note that it will take us significantly longer to respond.

Dispute Resolution

PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT (DEFINED BELOW) CAREFULLY. IT IS PART OF YOUR CONTRACT WITH US AND AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Applicability of Arbitration Agreement
All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with these Terms or the use of any product or service provided by heybaby that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this section under the heading “Dispute Resolution” (this “Arbitration Agreement”). Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and heybaby, and to any of heybaby’s subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns.

Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution
To commence arbitration proceedings, you must first send us a written notice of dispute (the “Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and the requested relief. The Notice should be sent to: HeyBaby Inc., 1401 Lavaca Street #95, Austin, TX 78701. After the Notice is received, you and heybaby must first attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and heybaby do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either you or heybaby may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

Arbitration Rules
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims, counterclaims, or request for relief under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/. All other disputes shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the alternative dispute resolution provider.

You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Authority of Arbitrator
The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (i) determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (ii) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any assertion that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and heybaby. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and these Terms (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. 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 heybaby.

Waiver of Jury Trial
YOU AND HEYBABY HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and heybaby are instead electing that all disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified above under the heading “Dispute Resolution”, Subsection A (Applicability of Arbitration Agreement). An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.

Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief
ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
