1.6
Use of the Services.
(a)
Getting a Match. After
registering for a Bounce Account, and once you’re ready to use our Services to meet
up with a User in real life (“Bounce”), you must enable location services on
your mobile phone and select surrounding neighborhoods located in New York, New
York, U.S.A., in which you are able and willing to meet with a Bounce Match
(your “Location”). You understand that
as Bounce Meetings (as defined herein) are arranged within one hour of making a Bounce Match, you
represent and warrant that you are physically located in or nearby your
Location and that you will timely make it to your Bounce Meeting. Your location will not be shared with any
Users and the Location will only be used to locate Users within or nearby who
are ready to Bounce. Based on your Location, our Services will provide you with
the profiles of other Users in or nearby your Location who are also ready to
Bounce. You will then have 60 seconds to
review a User’s profile and determine whether you want to Bounce with a
specific User or not. If you choose not
to, the profile of a new User will be shown to you. Our Services will continue showing you User
profiles until the earlier of 15 minutes has elapsed (the “Session”) or you
choose to meet with another User who also chooses to meet you (your “Bounce
Match”). Once a Bounce Match is found,
we’ll suggest a public meeting place and a time for you and your Bounce Match
to meet or you and your Bounce Match can mutually select and agree upon a
public meeting place and time (the “Bounce Meeting”). Only one Bounce Match will be made per 24 hour
period, per Bounce Account. You understand, represent and warrant that (i) it
is your responsibility to decide whether the location of the Bounce Meeting is
suitable for you, taking into account any and all applicable restrictions you
may have (e.g. your personal food allergies, religious restrictions, gluten
tolerance, vegetarianism, etc. (collectively, the “Restrictions”)); (ii) the
final decision to choose a certain Bounce Meeting is up to you and we are not
responsible or liable in any way to you for such decision, including, but not
limited to, any adverse, harmful or injurious reactions you may experience at a
Bounce Meeting due to your Restrictions; and (iii) you will not use or create
multiple Bounce Accounts in order to set up more than one Bounce Match per 24
hour period or attempt to use the Services in any way to set up more than one
Bounce Meeting per 24 hour period.
(b)
Bounce Meeting. You
understand and agree that we are not responsible for the conduct of any
User. In setting up a Bounce Meeting, we
will suggest, and recommend that if you suggest the location of a Bounce
Meeting, picking a populated and public place and never a private residence or
a remote location. We also recommend
that you take necessary precautions prior to all Bounce Meetings, including,
but not limited to, (i) informing your friends and family of your plans,
including the specifics of the Bounce Meeting and the Bounce Match you’re
meeting up with; (ii) arranging for and controlling your own transportation to
and from the Bounce Meeting; and (iii) avoiding the consumption of alcohol
and/or drugs which may impair your judgement and potentially put you in
danger. You understand and agree that
the preceding are only recommendations from TSH, and we, our officers, employees, directors, stockholders, contractors,
information providers, licensors, suppliers
and affiliates (our “Affiliates”), are
not responsible and liable in any way for your or your Bounce Match’s actions,
interactions, communications and conduct prior to, during or after any Bounce
Meeting. You further understand that we make no guarantees, either express or
implied, regarding your ultimate compatibility with Bounce Matches you meet
through the Service. You should not provide your financial information (for
example, your credit card or bank account information), or wire or otherwise
send money, to other Users.
(c)
Cancellations.
If you are using the Services and are ready to Bounce, you agree that
you will be ready to and can meet with a Bounce Match within one hour of
starting a Session. Given the short time
period between getting a Bounce Match and showing up at the Bounce Meeting, you
agree that, absent unavoidable
emergencies or events beyond your control (e.g. traffic accidents, family
emergencies, train derailment, etc.), you will not cancel a Bounce Meeting for
any reason. You further understand and
agree that, in the event that you are required to cancel a Bounce Meeting,
after three such cancellations, your Bounce Account will be suspended or
terminated, at our discretion, and you will be prohibited from using the
Services. However, if your Bounce
Account was suspended or terminated, you can contact us at support@trybounce.com to discuss whether reactivation of your
Bounce Account will be allowed. We
encourage you to report any Bounce Match that cancels a Bounce Meeting with
you.
1.7
Fees; Third Party Payment Processor.
(a)
Fees. Use of the Services is charged on a monthly, subscription
basis (the “Subscription”). We may bill any
fees in connection with your Subscription (the “Fees”) to you through your
Bounce Account or, if applicable, through a Processor, for use of the Service.
You agree to pay us all Fees at the prices you agreed to for any use of the
Service by you or other persons (including your agents) using your Bounce
Account, and you authorize us to charge your Credit Card for all Fees. You
agree to make payment using that selected Credit Card. We may correct any billing errors or mistakes
that we make even if it has already requested or received payment. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise
reverse a payment made with your Credit Card, we may in our discretion
terminate your Bounce Account immediately. If we successfully dispute the
reversal, and the reversed funds are returned, you are not entitled to a refund
or to have your Bounce Account reinstated.
Your Subscription will continue indefinitely until canceled by you or terminated by us. After your initial Subscription commitment
period, and again after any subsequent Subscription period, your Subscription
will automatically continue for an additional equivalent period, at the price
you agreed to when subscribing. You agree that your Bounce Account will be
subject to this automatic renewal feature unless your Bounce Account is
terminated by you. If you cancel your Subscription, you may use your Subscription
until the end of your then-current subscription term; your Subscription will
not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you won’t be
eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the Subscription Fee paid for
the then-current subscription period. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge your Credit Card now and again at the
beginning of any subsequent subscription period. You also authorize us to
charge you for any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your
subscription payments. Upon the renewal of your Subscription, if we do not
receive payment from your Credit Card, you agree to pay all amounts due on your
Bounce Account upon demand and/or you agree that we may either terminate or
suspend your Subscription and continue to attempt to charge your Credit Card
until payment is received (upon receipt of payment, your Bounce Account will be
activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new subscription
commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received). Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if, in any one month calendar period (a “Month”) you are not
matched with a Bounce Match and do not attend a Bounce Meeting (a “Non-Match
Month”), no Fees will be charged to your Bounce Account for such Month; provided, however, if you are matched
with a Bounce Match and fail to show up or cancel the Bounce Meeting, this will
not constitute as a Non-Match Month and you will be charged Fees for such
Month. During any Month, if you are
matched with a Bounce Match and attend the Bounce Meeting, but (i) your Bounce
Match fails to show up or cancels the Bounce Meeting; (ii) you notify us that
your Bounce Match failed to show up or cancelled the Bounce Meeting; and (iii)
you are not matched with any other Bounce Match and do not attend a Bounce
Meeting during the Month, such Month shall be deemed a Non-Match Month and you
will not be charged Fees for that Month.
(b)
Third Party Payment Process.
You understand that we may use a third-party
service provider (the “Processor”) (e.g., Stripe, Bill.com, etc.) for payment
services (e.g., credit card transaction processing, merchant settlement, and
any related service fees) to process the Fees.
By using the Site, App or Services, you agree to be bound by Processor’s
Terms of Use and Processor’s Privacy Policy.
You hereby consent to provide and authorize us and Processor to share
any information and payment instructions you provide to the extent required to
complete the payment transactions in accordance with this Agreement, including
personal, financial, credit card payment, and transaction information. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE
LEGAL RIGHT TO USE ANY CREDIT CARD(S) OR OTHER PAYMENT MEANS USED TO PAY ANY
FEE OR CHARGE. By providing us or
Processor with your payment information, you agree that Processor is authorized
to immediately invoice you for all fees and charges due and payable to us
hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to
immediately notify us and Processor (as applicable) of any change to your
payment information. You will be
responsible for paying any applicable taxes relating to your payments and
credits received and will indemnify and hold harmless TSH, our Affiliates, and
Processor from any and all taxes, including sales tax, based on any payments
made or received by you in connection with the Services.
