Nothing in this Section limits or excludes any liability for fraud.

  • Enrollment in the Service is exclusively available to licensed veterinary professionals, or authorized representatives of a veterinary clinic, practice or hospital.
  • To access the Service, Client is required to establish an account and provide accurate, current, and comprehensive information about themselves and, if applicable, their organization (“Registration Data”).

36. Arbitration Agreement & Waiver of Certain Rights

  • Applicability.  

You agree that any dispute or claim arising out of or relating in any way to your use of the Services and this Agreement, your relationship with Wag or your receipt of any communications from Wag will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court to the extent your claims qualify, remain in such court, and advance solely on an individual basis. “Disputes” or “claims” under this provision shall include, but are not limited to, any dispute, claim, or controversy, whether based on past, present, or future events, arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof), the Services, any other goods, services, or content made available through the Services, your relationship with Wag, the threatened or actual suspension, deactivation, or termination of your account with Wag, payments made by you or any payments made or allegedly owed to you, any promotions or offers made by Wag, any communications you receive from Wag, any claims for fraud, defamation, emotional distress, breach of any express or implied contract or covenant, claims arising under federal or state consumer protection laws, claims arising under antitrust laws, claims arising under the TCPA and Fair Credit Reporting Act, and claims arising under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, Civil Rights Act of 1964, Americans With Disabilities Act, and state statutes, if any, addressing the same or similar subject matters, and all other federal and state statutory and common law claims.  

  • Arbitration Rules and Forum.  

The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement. To begin an arbitration proceeding, the initiating party must notify the other party in writing via certified mail, return receipt requested, or hand delivery within the applicable statute of limitations period. This demand for arbitration must include (1) the name and address of the party seeking arbitration, (2) a statement of the legal and factual basis of the claim, and (3) a description of the remedy sought. Any demand for arbitration by you must be delivered to General Counsel, Wag Labs, Inc., 2261 Market Street, Suite 86056, San Francisco, CA 94114, and legal@wagwalking.com. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider, and conducted under AAA’s most current version of the Commercial Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/CommercialRules_Web.pdf. AAA’s rules are also available by calling AAA at 800-778-7879. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select a reasonably equivalent alternative arbitral forum. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay filing, administrative, hearing, and/or other fees necessary for the arbitration and you cannot obtain a waiver for such fees, Wag will pay them for you. In addition, Wag will reimburse all such filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for proceedings involving claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Wag will not seek attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines your claims are frivolous. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, in person, 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 -- not a court -- shall have exclusive authority to (i) determine the scope and enforceability of this Agreement (including this Arbitration Agreement), (ii) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement (including this Arbitration Agreement), including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable, and (iii) resolve any disputes or controversies regarding or arising out of the applicability of this Agreement, and/or any other concurrent agreement, to any particular claim or dispute, consistent with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rule R-7 (or similar rule if not arbitrated by the AAA). The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Wag. 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 this Agreement (including this 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 Wag.

36.4 Waiver of Jury Trial.  

YOU AND WAG HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. 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 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS; ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE PARTY CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER PARTY. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this subsection’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then the claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought into the federal or state court located in Santa Clara County, California for adjudication before a judge, not a jury. All other claims shall be arbitrated.

  • 30-Day Right to Opt Out.  

You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Agreement that mandate arbitration by e-mailing a written notice of your decision to opt out to: optout@wagwalking.com, within 30 days after first becoming subject to a version of this Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Wag username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Wag account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of arbitration, all other parts of this Agreement will continue to apply to you. Opting out of arbitration has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with Wag. 

  • Survival of Arbitration Agreement.  

This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Wag.

  • Modification.  

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if Wag makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, you may reject that change within thirty (30) days of such change becoming effective by emailing Wag a notice of your rejection to optout@wagwalking.com. Your rejection of any such changes shall not affect the enforceability of any prior version of this Arbitration Agreement or of any other agreement to arbitrate, that you previously entered into with Wag.
