Fees And Purchase Terms

Fees. Certain products or services offered on or through the Services, including the App, may be provided for a fee or other charge, including services or features for which access and use is purchased on a time limited basis (each a “Subscription”). You agree to pay all fees or charges to your Account, including fees for Subscriptions, in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. Rebel Girls may add new products and services for additional fees and charges, or amend fees and charges for existing products and services, at any time in its sole discretion. Any increased fees for existing Subscriptions will apply solely on a forward-looking basis beginning on your next billing period.
Payment. You may be required to provide Rebel Girls or the App Store with a valid credit card, PayPal account, or other permitted payment method (“Payment Provider”) as a condition to purchase any products or services on the Services. By providing Rebel Girls or the App Store with your credit card number and associated payment information, you agree that Rebel Girls or the App Store is authorized to immediately invoice your Account for all charges due and payable hereunder and that, except as required under applicable law, no additional notice or consent is required, including any charges in connection with any renewals of a Subscription. You agree to immediately notify Rebel Girls or the App Store of any change in your billing address or other payment information. We may change the prices and billing methods for the Services on a forward-going basis, either immediately upon posting on the Services or by e-mail. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card, and you must refer to that agreement to determine your rights and liabilities thereunder. Without limiting anything set forth therein, you acknowledge and agree that we may provide your payment information to our third-party service providers (e.g., our payment processing partner) for use pursuant to our Privacy Policy.
Subscription. The fee for a Subscription will be billed by Rebel Girls or the App Store at the start of your Subscription or, if applicable, at the end of any free trial period, and at regular intervals in accordance with your elections at the time of purchase. The timing of billing may change at any time. Your Subscription will continue to automatically renew indefinitely, including if you terminate your Account, until your Subscription is canceled in accordance with the Agreement. After your initial Subscription period, and again after any subsequent Subscription period, your Subscription will automatically renew on the first day following the end of such period (each a “Renewal Commencement Date”) and continue for an additional equivalent period at Rebel Girls’ then-current price for such Subscription. You agree that your Account will be subject to this automatic renewal feature (even if you otherwise terminate your Account) unless you cancel your Subscription prior to the Renewal Commencement Date in accordance with any terms between you and the App Store. If you cancel your Subscription, such cancellation will be effective as of the end of your then-current Subscription term, and your Subscription will not be renewed thereafter. By purchasing a Subscription, you authorize the applicable App Store or Rebel Girls to charge your Payment Provider in accordance with your selected Subscription. Upon renewal of your Subscription, if the App Store or Rebel Girls does not receive payment via your Payment Provider, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand and/or (ii) you agree that the App Store or Rebel Girls may either cancel or suspend your Subscription and continue to attempt to charge your Payment Provider until payment is received.
Free Trials and Other Promotions. Certain Subscription offerings may be available on a free trial basis (a “Free Trial”), the period of which will be communicated to you via the Services. Unless otherwise expressly set forth, your use of any such Subscription offerings will expire at the end of the Free Trial, and any further use of such offerings is prohibited unless you purchase a Subscription to such offerings. To the extent expressly indicated at the time of signing up for a Free Trial, your Free Trial will automatically convert to a paid Subscription and you will be prompted to provide details about your Payment Provider. Your Payment Provider will then be charged for the applicable Subscription unless you cancel the Subscription in accordance with Section 11 before the Free Trial ends. If you fail to cancel the Subscription before the Free Trial ends, you will be responsible for payment for the full term of the Subscription period. Unless otherwise expressly stated, any free trial or other promotion that provides a registered user-level access to the Services must be used within the specified time of the trial.
No Refunds. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS FOR ANY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES PURCHASED ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICES AND WE ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO PROVIDE ANY CREDITS FOR PARTIALLY USED PERIODS.
Payment Service Provider. All financial transactions made in connection with the Services will be processed by the App Store or their third-party payment service provider in accordance with their respective terms of use, privacy policy, and/or any applicable payment terms and conditions. As such, in no event will Rebel Girls be responsible for the actions or inactions of any App Store or their third party payment service provider, including, but not limited to, system downtime or payment service outages, and any billing and fee disputes may require resolution between you and the App Store or applicable third party. If you notify us of any fee or billing dispute, we will likely direct you to the App Store to address such dispute, but to the extent we are able, we may assist you in resolving such dispute.
Taxes. The payments required under Section 7.1 do not include any Sales Tax that may be due in connection with the Services provided under this Agreement. If Rebel Girls determines it has a legal obligation to collect a Sales Tax from you in connection with this Agreement, Rebel Girls shall collect such Sales Tax in addition to the payments required under Section 7.1. If any Services, or payments for any Services, under the Agreement are subject to any Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Rebel Girls, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Rebel Girls for any liability or expense Rebel Girls may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes. Upon Rebel Girls’ request, you will provide it with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or other such evidence that you have paid all applicable taxes. For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.
Advertising Revenue. Rebel Girls reserves the right to display third-party ads before, after, or in conjunction with User Content posted on the Services, and you acknowledge and agree that Rebel Girls has no obligation to you in connection therewith (including, without limitation, any obligation to share revenue received by Rebel Girls as a result of such advertising). Rebel Girls may be compensated if you click on a link and purchase one or more of the products or services recommended to you on the Services or in an email, blog, or other online posting sponsored by us.

Indemnification. You agree to indemnify and hold Rebel Girls (and its officers, employees, and agents) harmless, including costs and attorneys’ fees, from any loss, claim, or demand arising out of: (i) your use of the Services; (ii) your violation of this Agreement; (iii) your violation of applicable laws or regulations; (iv) Rebel Girls’ use in accordance with this Agreement of any data, content, information, or feedback, including Your Content, that you Make Available to Rebel Girls; or (v) your violation, or Your Content’s violation, of any rights of another party, including any users. We may assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of these claims. You agree not to settle any matter for which you may have an indemnification obligation hereunder without the prior written consent of Rebel Girls. Rebel Girls will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any claim, action, or proceeding for which you may have an indemnification obligation hereunder upon becoming aware of it. This provision does not require you to indemnify Rebel Girls (or its officers, employees, or agents) for Rebel Girls’ (or its officers’, employees’ or agents’) fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Services provided hereunder. You agree that the provisions in this Section will survive any termination of your Account, the Agreement and/or your access to the Services.

Dispute Resolution. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Rebel Girls and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with this Agreement or the Services that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and Rebel Girls, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under this Agreement.
Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to Rebel Girls should be sent to: support@rebelgirls.com. After the Notice is received, you and Rebel Girls may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and Rebel Girls do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.
Arbitration Rules. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with this Agreement. The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules (“Arbitration Rules”) governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief. For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of your residence, unless you reside outside of the United States, and unless the parties agree otherwise. If you reside outside of the United States, the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award that is greater than the last settlement offer that Rebel Girls made to you prior to the initiation of arbitration, Rebel Girls will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00. Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider.
Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.
Time Limits. If you or Rebel Girls pursue arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and/or demanded within the statute of limitations (i.e., the legal deadline for filing a claim) and within any deadline imposed under the AAA Rules for the pertinent claim.
Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Rebel Girls, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. 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 AAA Rules, and this 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 Rebel Girls.
Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and Rebel Girls in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND REBEL GIRLS WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.
Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek injunctive or equitable relief.
Severability. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.
Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Rebel Girls.
Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.
Courts. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Santa Clara County, California, for such purpose.
