- AFROMAX DOES NOT CONDUCT CRIMINAL BACKGROUND SCREENINGS ON ITS MEMBERS. You are solely responsible for your interactions with other Members, online and in person. AfroMax does not verify Members' statements about themselves and makes no representation about any Member's conduct or character. You assume all risk arising from your interactions with other Members, including any in-person meeting, and you agree to take reasonable safety precautions, including meeting first in public places and telling someone you trust where you will be.
- THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. THE COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY MEMBER PROFILE OR CONTENT IS ACCURATE. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
- TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE APP. THE COMPANY'S TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE APP WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID THE COMPANY IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100). Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
- These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the App, are governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
- You and the Company agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or to your use of the App will be resolved by binding individual arbitration, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, and not in court. The arbitration will be conducted in the State of New York, or by telephone or video conference where the rules permit. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. This clause is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
- YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS. YOU AND THE COMPANY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. If this waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the arbitration provisions in these Terms shall be void, and the dispute shall proceed in the courts identified below.
- Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive relief in court to protect its intellectual property rights. You may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice to legal@afromax.app, or by mail to AfroMax LLC, 767 Broadway #1524, Manhattan, NY 10003, United States, within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Opting out does not affect any other part of these Terms.
- For any dispute not subject to arbitration, you and the Company consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in New York County, New York, and waive any objection to that forum.
