4. PAYMENT AND CANCELLATION RIGHTS

Purchasing our Services. Please refer to the applicable offer for a description of our current subscription plans and pricing. Any terms and conditions of any offer disclosed to you when ordering is deemed part of these Terms. SkillDyne reserves the right to change the fees for its Services and will provide notice of any increase prior to your being charged.

We will add any applicable shipping and handling fees and sales or use tax in accordance with our then-current policies. All orders are for personal use only and orders for resale are prohibited. Products displayed on the Site, App, or Services are available only while supplies last. If we cancel your order after you have been charged, we will issue a refund. If you cancel your order after you have been charged, we will issue a credit to your Subscription Account.

No Binding Offer. Nothing on the Site, App, or Services constitutes a binding offer to sell, distribute, or give away any products or services. In the event the products and services are listed at an incorrect price, we have the right to refuse or cancel orders placed at the incorrect price, regardless of whether the order has been confirmed or you have been charged. We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline such order, or any portion thereof, even after your receipt of an order confirmation or after you have been charged. We also reserve the right at any time to limit the quantities of licenses and/or services ordered for you or your household.

The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, debit/credit card issuer, or other provider of your chosen Payment Method (the “Payment Method Provider”). If SkillDyne does not receive payment from your Payment Method Provider, you agree to pay all amounts due on your account upon demand. In the event we are advised of insufficient funds or credit in your Subscription Account to cover your payment by your Payment Method, we may re-present such un-cleared or rejected payment, or any lessor amount thereof, to your Payment Method Provider. In the event we must collect unpaid amounts you owe us, you will be liable for all collection costs, including reasonable attorneys’ and collection agency fees. SkillDyne reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes and to update your information from available third-party sources even if it has already requested or received payment.

You must promptly notify SkillDyne if your Payment Method is canceled (e.g., for loss or theft). If you fail to notify us, you remain responsible for any continued charges to the Payment Method you provided.

Subject to the terms of any refund policy in place for the online store where the App was downloaded (e.g., Google Play) and these Terms, SkillDyne will issue a refund for any reason within seven (7) days of submitting a payment to gain access to the full App. To request a refund, please send us an email to tripwire@imap.cc with your refund request and your reasons why you are seeking a refund. SkillDyne, in its sole discretion, may deny any refund request if it suspects your request is fraudulent or abusive in any way. If you believe you have statutory rights to receive a refund outside the scope of the foregoing rights or despite SkillDyne’s refusal of your refund request, please specify the laws you believe apply and why such laws support your request for a refund, and we will consider any submitted evidence. SkillDyne will notify you of its decision within one (1) week of receipt of your request. If SkillDyne decides to provide a refund in response to your request, it will initiate the refund within three (3) business days of making its decision. The refund will be submitted to the payment method used to make the purchase for the App, if possible. The timing for receiving your refund may vary based on many factors, including the nature of your payment method.

14. ARBITRATION / DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Governing Law. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah without application of conflict of laws rules, except that these Arbitration provisions shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

Resolution of Any Dispute. In the event a dispute arises between you and SkillDyne (“Dispute”), we want to provide you with an efficient, neutral, and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute. Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by contacting us directly by email to tripwire@imap.cc or mailing to SkillDyne, LLC, 336 East University Parkway #1060, Orem, Utah 84058. If, however, the Dispute cannot be resolved by the personnel directly involved, the parties shall first attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute promptly by negotiation between duly appointed executive officers or other representatives of such parties, with full authority to negotiate and settle the Dispute. If a Dispute has not been resolved by negotiations within 90 days as provided hereinabove, such Dispute shall be submitted to JAMS, or its successor (collectively, “JAMS”), for mediation as provided hereinbelow. Any party involved in the Dispute may commence mediation by providing to JAMS and each other party involved in the Dispute a written request for mediation, setting forth the subject of the Dispute and the relief requested. The parties will cooperate with JAMS and with one another in selecting a mediator from JAMS’ panel of neutrals and in scheduling the mediation proceedings. The parties covenant that they will participate in the mediation in good faith, and that they will share equally in its costs. All offers, promises, conduct, and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator and any JAMS employees, are confidential, privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including impeachment, in any litigation or other proceeding involving the parties; provided, however, that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. None of the parties may commence arbitration or a civil action with respect to the matters submitted to mediation until after the completion of the initial mediation session, or thirty (30) calendar days after the date of filing the written request for mediation, whichever occurs first. Mediation may continue after the commencement of arbitration or a civil action if the parties so desire.

Limitation of Legal Remedies. If there is a Dispute that remains unresolved after mediation, INSTEAD OF SUING IN COURT, YOU AND SKILLDYNE EACH AGREE TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THE JAMS ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES, ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, WITHOUT CLASS RELIEF, EXCEPT FOR DISPUTES PERTAINING TO SKILLDYNE’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS AND STATUTORY CLAIMS THAT PURSUANT TO LAW ARE NOT ARBITRABLE. This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes claims based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory (“Claim(s)”). The arbitrator’s decision and award are final and binding, with some exceptions under the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. 1, et seq., and judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

Jury Trial Waiver. YOU AND SKILLDYNE EACH VOLUNTARILY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESOLVING ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN US ARISING OUT OF THESE TERMS OR THE SITE, APP, OR SERVICES.

Class Action Waiver. YOU AND SKILLDYNE EACH AGREE THAT CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER MAY ONLY BE BROUGHT IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT IN A CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. All arbitrations under these Terms must be conducted on an individual (and not a class-wide) basis, and an arbitrator will have no authority to award class-wide relief. You acknowledge and agree that these Terms specifically prohibit you from commencing any legal proceedings as a representative of others, participating in a class, representative, or collective action as a class representative, class member or an opt-in party, acting as a private attorney general, or joining or consolidating Claims with claims or proceedings brought by any other person (“Class Action Waiver”).

Arbitration Procedures. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written Notice of Dispute describing the nature and basis of the Claim and setting forth the specific relief sought (“Notice”). All Notices to SkillDyne must be sent to the following address: SkillDyne, LLC, 336 East University Parkway #1060, Orem, Utah 84058. Our notice to you will be sent to you based on the most recent contact information that you provide us but if no such information exists or if such information is not current, then we have no obligation under this Section. Upon receipt of such Notice, the receiving party will have a 60-day period in which it may satisfy the Claim against it by fully curing the Claim, providing all the relief requested in the Notice, or entering into a settlement to resolve the Claim to the mutual satisfaction of the parties. After the expiration of such 60-day cure period, you or SkillDyne may commence an arbitration proceeding. Unless otherwise agreed to by you and SkillDyne in writing, the arbitration will be governed and conducted by JAMS before a single arbitrator with substantial experience in the internet industry and shall follow substantive law in adjudicating the Dispute. This Section shall be construed as a written agreement to arbitrate pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). You and SkillDyne agree that this Section satisfies the writing requirement of the FAA. The arbitration of any claim will be conducted in the State of Utah, and for any non-frivolous claim that does not exceed $5,000.00, you shall have the choice as to whether the hearing is conducted in person or by telephone. Each party will pay the fees and costs of its own counsel, experts, and witnesses. The JAMS rules are available on its website at www.jamsadr.com. To the extent that this dispute resolution Section conflicts with JAMS minimum standards for procedural fairness, the JAMS rules and/or minimum standards for arbitration procedures in that regard shall control. Neither party shall sue the other party other than as provided herein or for enforcement of this clause or for the arbitrator’s award; and any such suit may be brought only in Federal District Court or, if any such court lacks jurisdiction, in any state court that has jurisdiction. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, unconscionability, arbitrability, or enforceability of these Terms including any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable.

Exception to Arbitration. Only disputes or actions pertaining to SkillDyne’s intellectual property rights or statutory claims are not arbitrable and will be exempt from arbitration.

Survival. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.

Severability. If any provision of this Section is declared or found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be unlawful, unenforceable, or void, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent that it is found unlawful, unenforceable, or void, and the remainder of the provision and all other provisions will remain fully enforceable, except that if the Class Action Waiver for any Claim cannot be enforced, then the provision to arbitrate will not apply.

15. NO RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES

16. PRIVACY POLICY

Our privacy policy (the “Privacy Policy”) is found at https://skilldyne.com/legal/privacy/ and is incorporated into and subject to these Terms by reference. Please review the Privacy Policy for information about how we collect, use, and share information, including the data rights available to you.

17. MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms, and policies incorporated herein, are the entire agreement between you and SkillDyne. They supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous agreements between you and SkillDyne relating to your use of the Site, App, or Services. If these Terms expire or are terminated for any reason, the provisions which by their nature should continue after termination including proprietary or intellectual property rights, disclaimer of warranties, limitation of liability, arbitration/dispute resolution, third-party beneficiaries, and the provisions of this Section 16 shall survive any such expiration or termination. If any provision of these Terms is declared or found by a court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator to be unlawful, unenforceable, or void, such provision will be ineffective only to the extent that it is found unlawful, unenforceable, or void, and the remainder of the provision and all other provisions will remain fully enforceable, except that if the Class Action Waiver for any Claim cannot be enforced, then the provision to arbitrate will not apply. You may not assign your rights under your Subscription Account or this Agreement to any third party without SkillDyne’s prior written permission, which it may withhold in its sole discretion. SkillDyne may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, at any time. Headings in the Terms are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation or construction of this Agreement. The failure of SkillDyne to partially or fully exercise any rights, or the waiver of SkillDyne to enforce any breach of these Terms by you, shall not prevent a subsequent exercise of such right by SkillDyne or be deemed a waiver by SkillDyne of any subsequent breach by you of the same or any other term of these Terms. The rights and remedies of SkillDyne under these Terms and any other applicable agreement between you and SkillDyne shall be cumulative, and the exercise of any such right or remedy shall not limit SkillDyne’s right to exercise any other right or remedy. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions of these Terms and any other terms and/or conditions applicable to the Site, App, or Services, we shall determine which rules, restrictions, limitations, terms and/or conditions shall control and prevail in our sole discretion, and you specifically waive any right to challenge or dispute such determination.
