Dealify. – Acceptance of terms and conditions

By using Dealify.ca and/or Dealify App on iOS/Android (the “Products”), you (“you” or the “End User”) agree to the terms and conditions that we (“Dealify”) have provided. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions (the “Terms of Use” or “Agreement”), please refrain from using our Products.

 

1. General

The Product provides an interactive online service operated by Dealify, on the World Wide Web of the Internet (the “Web”), consisting of information services, content and transaction capabilities facilitated through Dealify, affiliates of Dealify or merchants (“Merchants”) offering digital vouchers of deals and/or discounts (“Vouchers “) which may be exchanged for goods/services at Merchants and other third parties.

This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions that apply to the use of this Product by the End User. By using this Product, End User agrees to comply with all of the terms and conditions hereof. The right to use this Product is personal to End User and is not transferable to any other person or entity. End User shall be responsible for protecting the confidentiality of End User’s password(s), if any. End User acknowledges that, although the Internet is often a secure environment, sometimes there are interruptions in service or events that are beyond the control of Dealify, and Dealify shall not be responsible for any data lost while transmitting information on the Internet. While it is Dealify’s objective to make the Product accessible 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, the Product may be unavailable from time to time for any reason including, without limitation, routine maintenance. You understand and acknowledge that due to circumstances both within and outside of the control of Dealify, access to the Product may be interrupted, suspended or terminated from time to time.

Dealify shall have the right at any time to change or discontinue any aspect or feature of the Product, including, but not limited to, content, hours of availability and equipment needed for access or use. Further, Dealify may discontinue disseminating any portion of information or category of information, may change or eliminate any transmission method and may change transmission speeds or other signal characteristics.

You represent that you are of legal age to form a binding contract. You must be at least 18 years old to be eligible to use the Product. However, if you are at least 13 years old but not yet 18, you may use the Product in conjunction with your parent or guardian who agrees to this Agreement. No one under age 13 may use the Product.

 

2. Modified Terms

Dealify reserves the right at all times to discontinue or modify any of our Terms of Use and/or our Privacy Policy as we deem necessary or desirable. Such changes may include, among other things, the adding of certain fees or charges. If Dealify makes any substantial changes, we will notify you by sending you an e-mail to the e-mail address that is registered with your account and/or by posting notice of the change on the Product. Any changes to these Terms of Use will be effective upon the earlier of our dispatch of an e-mail notice to you or our posting of notice of the changes on our Product, provided that these changes will not apply to Vouchers displayed prior to the effective date of such changes. These changes will be effective immediately for new users of our Product and any Vouchers displayed by such new users. We suggest to you, therefore, that you re-read this important notice containing our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy from time to time in order that you stay informed as to any such changes. Any use of the Product by End User after such notice shall be deemed to constitute acceptance by End User of such modifications.

4. End User Conduct

This Product and any individual Products or merchant-specific, city-specific, or province-specific Products now or hereinafter contained within or otherwise available through external hyperlinks with our Product (the “Microsites”) are private property. All interactions on this Product and/or the Microsites must comply with these Terms of Use. Although we welcome and encourage user interaction on our Product, we do insist and require that all end users restrict any and all activity in connection with the use of this Product and the Microsites to that which involves lawful purposes only. End User shall not post or transmit through this Product any material which violates or infringes in any way upon the rights of others, or any material which is unlawful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, vulgar, obscene, profane or otherwise objectionable, which encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability or otherwise violate any law, or which, without Dealify’s express prior, written approval, contains advertising or any solicitation with respect to products or services. Any conduct by an End User that in Dealify’s discretion restricts or inhibits any other End User from using or enjoying this Product and/or any of the Microsites is strictly prohibited. End User shall not use this Product or any of the Microsites to advertise or perform any commercial, religious, political or non-commercial solicitation, including, but not limited to, the solicitation of users of this Product and/or the Microsites to become users of other on- or offline services directly or indirectly competitive or potentially competitive with Dealify.

The foregoing provisions of this Section 4 apply equally to and are for the benefit of Dealify, its subsidiaries, affiliates, Merchants and its third-party content providers and licensors, and each shall have the right to assert and enforce such provisions directly or on its own behalf.

End User also permits any other end user to access, view, store or reproduce the material for that End User’s personal use. End User hereby grants Dealify the right to edit, copy, publish and distribute any material made available on this Product or any Microsite by End User.

The foregoing provisions of Section 5 apply equally to and are for the benefit of Dealify, its subsidiaries, affiliates, Merchants and its third party content providers and licensors and each shall have the right to assert and enforce such provisions directly or on its own behalf.

7. Disclaimer of Warranty

End user expressly agrees that use of this Product and the microsites is at end user’s sole risk. Neither Dealify, its affiliates nor any of their respective employees, agents, merchants, third-party content providers or licensors, or any of their officers, directors, employees or agents, warrant that use of the Product or any microsite will be uninterrupted or error free; nor do they make any warranty as to (i) the results that may be obtained from use of this Product, or any microsite, or (ii) the accuracy, reliability or content of any information, service or vouchers provided through this Product or the microsites.

This Product and the microsites are made accessible on an “as is” and “as available” basis. Dealify hereby disclaims any and all representations, warranties and conditions whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, those of title noninfringement, merchantability, and fitness for a particular purpose.

 

8. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall Dealify, be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or related to this agreement. In no event will Dealify’s liability in connection with a Dealify exceed the amounts paid for such Dealify, and total aggregate liability arising out of or related to this agreement shall not exceed the amounts paid by end user during the six months preceding the bringing of any claim.

 

9. Monitoring

Dealify shall have the right, but not the obligation, to monitor the content of the Product and any Microsites at all times, including any chat rooms and forums that may hereinafter be included as part of the Product, to determine compliance with this Agreement and any operating rules established by Dealify, as well as to satisfy any applicable law, regulation or authorized government request. Without limiting the foregoing, Dealify shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove any material that Dealify, in its sole discretion, finds to be in violation of the provisions hereof or otherwise objectionable.

 

10. Privacy

End User acknowledges that all discussion for ratings, comments, bulletin board service, chat rooms and/or other message or communication facilities (collectively “Communities”) are public and not private communications, and that, therefore, others may read End User’s communications without End User’s knowledge. Dealify does not control or endorse the content, messages or information found in any Community, and, therefore, Dealify specifically disclaims any liability concerning the Communities and any actions resulting from End Users’ participation in any Community, including any objectionable content. Generally, any communication which End User posts to Dealify (whether in chat rooms, discussion groups, message boards or otherwise) is considered to be non-confidential. If particular web pages permit the submission of communications that will be treated by Dealify as confidential, that fact will be stated on those pages. By posting comments, messages or other information on the Product or any Microsite, End User grants Dealify the right to use such comments, messages or information for promotions, advertising, market research or any other lawful purpose without territorial, time or other limitation. For more information see Dealify’s Privacy Policy.

 

11. License Grant

By posting communications on or through this Product or any Microsite, End User shall be deemed to have granted to Dealify a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, edit, translate, distribute, perform, and display the communication alone or as part of other works in any form, media, or technology whether now known or hereafter developed without territorial or time limitations, and to sublicense such rights through multiple tiers of sub licensees.

 

12. Indemnification/Release

End User agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Dealify, its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents from and against all claims and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of or related to any products or services purchased by End User in connection with the Product or any Microsites.

End User is solely responsible for interactions with Merchants and other users of the Product or Microsites. To the extent permitted under applicable laws, End User hereby releases Dealify from any and all claims or liability related to any product or service of a Merchant, any action or in-action by Merchant, including Merchant’s failure to comply with applicable law and/or failure to abide by the terms of a Voucher, and any conduct or speech, whether online or offline, of any other user.

 

13. Termination

Dealify may terminate this Agreement at any time. Without limiting the foregoing, Dealify shall have the right to immediately terminate or suspend any passwords or accounts of End User in the event of any conduct by End User or which Dealify, in its sole discretion, considers to be unacceptable, or in the event of any breach by End User of this Agreement. The provisions of Sections 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, and 12 will survive termination of this Agreement.”

 

14. Trademarks

Dealify is a trademark of Dealify, Inc. All rights in respect of this trademark are hereby expressly reserved. Unless otherwise indicated, all other trademarks appearing on Dealify are the property of their respective owners.

 

15. Third-Party Content

Dealify, similar to an Internet Service Provider, is a distributor (and not a publisher) of content supplied by third parties and End Users. Accordingly, Dealify has no more editorial control over such content than does a public library, bookstore or newsstand. Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers, or other information or content expressed or made available by third parties, including information providers, or any other end users are those of the respective author(s) or distributor(s) and not of Dealify.

In many instances, the content available through this Product represents the opinions and judgments of the respective information provider, end user, or other user not under contract with Dealify. Dealify neither endorses nor is responsible for the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, advice, or statement made on Dealify by anyone other than authorized Dealify employee spokespersons while acting in official capacities. Under no circumstances will Dealify be liable for any loss or damage caused by an end user’s reliance on information obtained through Dealify. It is the responsibility of End User to evaluate the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any information, opinion, advice, etc., or other content available through Dealify.

Dealify contains links to third-party websites maintained by other content providers. These links are provided solely as a convenience to you and not as an endorsement by Dealify of the contents on such third-party Products, and Dealify hereby expressly disclaims any representations regarding the content or accuracy of materials on such third-party websites. If End User decides to access linked third-party websites, End User does so at its own risk. Unless you have executed a written agreement with Dealify expressly permitting you to do so, you may not provide a hyperlink to the Product or any Microsite from any other website. Dealify reserves the right to revoke its consent to any link at any time in its sole discretion.

 

16. Dispute Resolution

By using this Product, End User agrees that: (1) any claim, dispute, or controversy End User may have against Dealify arising out of, relating to, or connected in any way with this Agreement, this Product, or any Microsite, or the purchase or sale of any Voucher(s), shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and conducted before a single arbitrator pursuant to the applicable Rules and Procedures established by AAA (“Rules and Procedures”); (2) the arbitration shall be held at a location determined by AAA pursuant to the Rules and Procedures (provided that such location is reasonably convenient for End User), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by End User and Dealify; (3) the arbitrator shall apply Illinois law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law; (4) there shall be no authority for any claims to be arbitrated on a class or representative basis; arbitration can decide only the End User’s and/or Dealify’s individual claims; and the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated; (5) in the event that the End User is able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Dealify will pay as much of the End User’s filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive; and (6) with the exception of subpart (4) above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures established by AAA, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, subpart (4) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this Arbitration Provision shall be null and void, and neither End User nor Dealify shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. For more information on AAA and its Rules and Procedures, End Users may visit the AAA website at www.adr.org
