TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, BOOKED DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NONINFRINGEMENT, AND ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING AND USAGE OF TRADE.

Limitations of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHALL BOOKED, OR ANY OF BOOKED’S MERCHANTS, PROCESSORS, SUPPLIERS, OR LICENSORS (OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, AGENTS, DIRECTORS, OR EMPLOYEES) BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR SPECIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF BUSINESS, PROFITS, USE, GOODWILL, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES), ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE BOOKED SERVICES OR ANY BOOKED APP, OR ANY LOYALTY CREDIT OFFERED OR AWARDED, OR ANY GOODS AND SERVICES PURCHASED WITH THE BOOKED SERVICES OR ANY BOOKED APP. BOOKED SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, LOSS, OR INJURY RESULTING FROM HACKING, TAMPERING, OR OTHER UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR USE OF THE BOOKED SERVICES, YOUR BOOKED USER ACCOUNT, ANY BOOKED APP, OR THE INFORMATION CONTAINED THEREIN. BOOKED SHALL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF THE BOOKED SERVICES OR ANY GOODS OR SERVICES PURCHASED USING THE SERVICES.

THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY APPLIES WHETHER SUCH CLAIM IS BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF BOOKED OR A MERCHANT HAD BEEN INFORMED OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF WARRANTIES OR OF LIABILITY FOR CERTAIN TYPES OF DAMAGES, SO SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS OR EXCLUSIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

With respect to any unauthorized, fraudulent transaction conducted using your User Account, absent any violation of these User Terms by you, your right to reimbursement for any direct losses (i.e., losses not refunded by your payment instrument issuing entity) as set forth herein shall be your sole and exclusive right and remedy for any loss or damages incurred by you, arising out of, in connection with, or relating to any fraudulent or unauthorized use of your Booked User Account, and Booked may condition its payment of any fraud or unauthorized use reimbursement upon your releasing Booked from any further claims with respect thereto.

An action or proceeding relating to any claim arising out of the Booked Services or any Booked App must commence within the shorter of the applicable statute of limitations or one year after the cause of action has accrued.

Release of Claims; Indemnity

You hereby release, and agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Booked against any and all claims, actions, proceedings, suits, liabilities, losses, damages, costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees arising in connection with or relating to: (i) your improper or illegal use of the Booked Service or any Booked App; (ii) your breach of any provision of this Agreement; (iii) your violation of any federal, state, or local law or regulation; (iv) any goods and services purchased with the Booked Service; (v) any act or omission of any merchant; and/or (vi) your participation in any merchant loyalty campaign or Loyalty Credit awarded or redeemed with the Booked Services or any Booked App (“Damages”). Booked reserves the right to assume the sole control of the defense and settlement of any claim, action, suit or proceeding for which you are obliged to provide indemnification hereunder. You agree to cooperate with Booked with respect to such defense and settlement.

Disputes; Arbitration

Booked reasonably seeks to attempt to resolve disputes with Users to their satisfaction. If, however, a matter arises that cannot be resolved promptly between you and Booked, you agree that any disputes arising out of, or relating to the Booked Website, any Booked App, or this Agreement (including, without limitation, the validity, applicability, or enforceability, and scope of the agreement to arbitrate and any disputes with Booked’s third party licensors or merchants) shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Federal Arbitration Act and shall be conducted before a single arbiter pursuant to the applicable Rules and Procedures established by the AAA (for information on the AAA and its rules, see adr.org). You agree that the arbitration shall be held in the county selected by Booked in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, unless the AAA or the arbitrator determine that that venue is unreasonably burdensome, in which case the AAA or the arbitrator shall select a venue that is not unreasonably burdensome to both you and Booked. You agree that, if the AAA is unavailable or declines to administer the arbitration, and the parties do not agree on a substitute, a substitute administrator or arbitrator shall be appointed by the court. This provision shall not apply to claims of patent, trademark, copyright infringement, or misappropriation of trade secrets. In addition, you or we may elect to bring an individual claim in a small claims court, but Booked does not hereby agree to any personal jurisdiction that is otherwise lacking.

You agree that any arbitration shall not permit claims on a class, mass, representative, or private attorney general basis. You further agree that no claims of other parties may be consolidated with your or our claims in the arbitration without both your and our consent. YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, MASS, REPRESENTATIVE, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION AGAINST BOOKED.

If any part of this Arbitration clause is later deemed invalid as a matter of law, then it shall be severed and the remaining portions of this section shall remain in effect.

Assignment and Inurement

Booked may at any time assign your Booked User Account and these User Terms and Conditions, in whole or in part, without notice to you. You may not assign these Terms and Conditions without our prior, written consent. These Terms and Conditions will take effect to the benefit of and bind you and us and our respective personal and legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.

Miscellaneous Provisions

This Agreement represents the entire agreement of the parties as to its subject matter, and supersedes all prior written and oral representations and discussions between the parties.

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico without reference to principles of conflicts of laws.

No delay or omission by Booked in exercising any of its rights occurring upon any noncompliance or default by you with respect to this Agreement will impair any such right or be construed to be a waiver thereof, and a waiver by Booked of any of the covenants, conditions or agreements to be performed by you will not be construed to be a waiver of any succeeding breach thereof or of any other covenant, condition or agreement hereof contained.

If any provision of this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will be reformed to be valid and enforceable while reflecting the intent of the parties to the greatest extent permitted by law.

In no event shall Booked be liable for any failure to comply with this Agreement to the extent that such failure arises from factors outside Booked’s reasonable control.

The provisions of this Agreement are entered into for the benefit of Booked, its third party licensors, and the merchants, and each of them shall have the right to enforce such provisions of this Agreement, including the arbitration clause, directly against you to protect their interests. Except as stated in the preceding sentence, there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement.

Booked reserves the right to change or add to these User Terms at any time. When we do so, we shall provide notice on our website by posting the updated User Terms. You agree that if you do not agree to any such amendment, you shall immediately terminate this agreement. Your failure to do so, or continued use of any Booked App or Service, shall constitute the agreement to the User Terms as so amended.

In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any other Booked agreement or policy provided to you, directly or indirectly, this Agreement shall prevail on the subject matter of this Agreement.

Effective Date of these Terms of Service: October 5, 2021
