  5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

    1. The Licensed Offer and all rights, without limitation including proprietary rights therein (including any all copyrights, patents, trademarks, trade secrets, and publicity rights), are owned, licensed or otherwise obtained by Licensor. The structure, organization, and software code of the Licensed Offer are valuable trade secrets and confidential information of Licensor and/or its sources. Except as expressly and unambiguously provided herein, You do not possess, and Licensor does not grant to You, any express or implied rights (whether by implication, estoppel or other legal theory) in or to any such intellectual property rights and all such rights are retained by Licensor and/or its sources.

    2. You acknowledge and agree that Licensor and/or its sources have previously developed source and object code, and obtained data, for the purposes of creating the Licensed Offer. All such source and object code, and any obtained data, is owned by Licensor and/or its sources; and that this EULA does not convey any rights or licenses of such source, object code or data to You.

    4. Licensor shall have no obligation to defend or indemnify You with respect to any third-party claim that is based on or attributable to Your continued engagement in infringing activities after You were notified of the infringement or after Licensor informed You of a modification or workaround that would have avoided the infringement or Your use of the Licensed Offer in a manner not permitted under this EULA.

    5. Certain factual descriptions of automotive components, systems, repairs etc. are sourced and/or adapted from Wikipedia (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page). You may reuse and share such sourced and/or adapted descriptions with attribution under the Creative Commons Deed (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Text_of_Creative_Commons_Attribution-ShareAlike_3.0_Unported_License).

  6. PAYMENT

    Payments for the Licensed Offer are managed by third-party payment service processors. By using the Licensed Offer and agreeing to this EULA, You also agree to be bound by the terms of services required by such payment service processors.

    (a) Prices & Charges. You understand that Licensor reserves the right to change prices and/or payment service processors at any time at its sole discretion. All payments will be processed by Licensor or its payment service processors, using the preferred payment details designated in Your account. If Your payment details change, the relevant payment service processor may provide Licensor with Your updated payment details. Licensor may use these new details or details from other information on file in order to help prevent interruption to Your use of the Licensed Offer. If You would like to use different or changed payment details, You must update Your payment details information.

    (b) Coupons & Offers. From time-to-time Licensor may make promotional offers to individual account holders for which You may also be eligible. You agree not to abuse any promotional offers, including by redeeming multiple such offers at once or by opening multiple accounts to benefit from such offers made available only to first-time users or for one-time uses. Licensor reserves the right to withhold benefits obtained through a promotional offer in the event that Licensor determines or believes, at its sole discretion, that the redemption of the promotional offer or receipt of the benefit was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of the applicable intent and terms of the promotional offer.

    (c) Subscriptions. The Licensed Offer may be provided as an automatically renewing subscription requiring recurring payments. A subscription grants You access to the Licensed Offer. The Licensed Offer is offered for a fee payable at the start of the subscription period. By signing up and providing Your payment details information, You agree that: (i) You will be charged Your first subscription fee on or about the date You purchase Your subscription; (ii) You authorize Licensor and the relevant payment service processors to store Your payment details for the purpose of executing future auto-renewal transactions where appropriate; (iii) UNLESS YOU CANCEL, BY DEFAULT (AND WITH PRIOR NOTICE ONLY TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW), YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW WHERE APPROPRIATE AT THE END OF THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD, and (iv) AT TIME OF RENEWAL, LICENSOR WILL AUTOMATICALLY CHARGE WHERE APPROPRIATE THE THEN-CURRENT FEE AND ANY APPLICABLE TAXES TO AN ELIGIBLE PAYMENT METHOD THAT LICENSOR HAS ON FILE FOR YOU.

  7. REFUNDS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

    If You are unhappy with the Licensed Offer and would like to request a refund, request Licensor by using the form at https://carbeast.com/contact. Licensor handles refund requests on a case-by-case basis, and provides refunds less possible refund processing fees. Licensor's goal is complete customer satisfaction while Licensor makes best attempts to help resolve Your concerns. However, if You request a refund or enter into a dispute, Licensor reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to prevent Your email address, phone and/or payment details from being used to sign up, purchase, and/or subscribe to the Licensed Offer again.

    If Licensor is unable to resolve Your concerns and does not issue a refund, You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen, or may arise out of this or previous versions of this EULA, Your use of or access to the Licensed Offer, Licensor's actions, or the actions of Licensor's agents, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this EULA for such arbitration.

    The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its rules and procedures, including the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules and the AAA's Commercial Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by this EULA. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org. If the AAA is unavailable to administer the arbitration, another administrator will be selected by the Parties.

    A Party that seeks arbitration must first send to the other Party a valid Notice of Dispute ("Notice"). The Notice to Licensor must be sent to CarBeast, P.O. Box 7115, Ann Arbor, MI 48107. Licensor will send any Notice to You to the email address on file associated with Your account; it is Your responsibility to keep Your email address up-to-date. To be valid, You must personally sign any Notice sent by You to Licensor, providing information that includes a description of the nature and basis of the claims You are asserting, the specific relief sought, and the email address and phone number associated with Your account.

    If Licensor is unable to resolve the claims within 30 days, either Party may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA website at www.adr.org. In addition to filing this form with AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, the Party initiating the arbitration must provide a copy of the completed form to the opposing Party. You must provide a copy to Licensor sent to CarBeast, P.O. Box 7115, Ann Arbor, MI 48107. In the event Licensor initiates an arbitration against You, Licensor will send a copy of the completed form to the email address on file associated with Your account. Any settlement offer made by You or Licensor shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.

    The arbitration hearing shall be held in Washtenaw County in the State of Michigan (or a different location, that is geographically closest and acceptable to the arbitrator). Where no disclosed claims or counterclaims exceed $25,000, the dispute shall be resolved by submission of documents only, subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, the Parties may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

    The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by the relevant law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different licensees. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding, and the judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in Washtenaw County in the State of Michigan (or a different location, that is geographically closest and acceptable to the arbitrator).

  8. TERMINATION AND RENEWAL

    This EULA shall be effective until one of the Parties terminates it with the following provisions: (i) You may terminate this EULA at any time by ceasing to use any and all aspects of the Licensed Offer, and (ii) Licensor reserves the right to terminate this EULA, suspend, discontinue, enhance, update or otherwise modify the Licensed Offer, or its availability to You, at any time without notice, and at Licensor's sole determination and discretion.
