Mobile Application End User License Agreement

Welcome to the Grab Mobile Application (“App”) by Cursus Technologies, Inc. (“Us” or “Our” or “We”)

– We hope You enjoy the experience!

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a legal contract between You and Us (collectively, “Everyone”) and govern Your use of all the text, data, information, software, graphics, photographs and more (all of which We refer to as “Materials”) that We or Our affiliates may make available to You, as well as any services (“Services”) We provide through the App.

READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE DOWLOADING, INSTALLING OR USING OUR APP.  DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING OR USING THE APP INDICATES THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD AND ACCEPT THESE TERMS.  YOU SHOULD NOT DOWNLOAD, INSTALL OR USE THE APP IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS.

NOTE:  THESE TERMS CONTAIN A DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION PROVISION, INCLUDING CLASS ACTION WAIVER THAT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THESE TERMS AND WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTES YOU MAY HAVE WITH US.  YOU MAY OPT OUT OF THE BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER AS PROVIDED BELOW.

Unfortunately, if You breach any of these Terms the above license will terminate automatically and You must immediately delete the App and destroy any downloaded or printed Materials (and any copies thereof).

CHANGES

We may alter the Materials and Services We offer You and/or choose to modify, suspend or discontinue the App at any time and without notifying You.  We may also change, update, add or remove provisions (collectively, “modifications”) of these Terms from time to time.  Because Everyone benefits from clarity, We promise to inform You of any modifications to these Terms through the App and, if You have registered with Us, by describing the modifications to these Terms in an email that We will send to the address that You provided during registration.  To be sure We properly reach Your email inbox, We ask that You let Us know if Your preferred email address changes at any time after Your registration.

If You object to any such modifications, Your sole recourse will be to cease using the App.  Continued use of the App following notice of any such modifications indicates You acknowledge and agree to be bound by the modifications. Also, please know that these Terms may be superseded by expressly-designated legal notices or terms that appear in the App.  These expressly-designated legal notices or terms are incorporated into these Terms and supersede the provision(s) of these Terms that are designated as being superseded.

THIRD PARTY APPLICATION DISCLAIMER

You acknowledge and agree, as a condition of using the App, that no third party application providers (including, without limitation, Facebook® or Concur®) sponsor, endorse, or administer the App or any of Our Services. All questions regarding the App or Services must be directed to Us, and not a third party application provider. You also agree, as a condition of using the App, to release all third party application providers from any and all liability arising out of Your use of the App.

The Services include and make use of certain functionality and services provided by third-parties that allow Us to include maps, geocoding, places and other Content from Google, Inc. (“Google”) as part of the Services (the “Geo-Location Services”).  Your use of the Geo-Location Services is subject to  Google’s then current Terms of Use for Google Maps/Google Earth (http://www.google.com/intl/en_us/help/terms_maps.html) and by using the Geo-Location Services, You are agreeing to be bound by Google’s Terms of Use.

Location data provided by or in the App is for basic location purposes only and is not intended to be relied upon in situations where precise location information is needed or where erroneous, inaccurate or incomplete location data may lead to death, personal injury, property or environmental damage.

You agree to pay all applicable fees related to Your use of the App and Our Services.  We may suspend or terminate Your account and/or access to Our Services and the App if Your offered payment method (e.g., credit card or PayPal account) cannot be processed.  By providing a payment method, You expressly authorize Us to charge the applicable fees on said payment method as well as taxes and other charges incurred thereto, all of which depend on the products or Services You purchase.

We understand that You might cancel Your account, but please know that You are responsible for paying any balance due on the account incurred prior to cancellation.  To make things less complicated, You agree that We may charge any unpaid fees to Your provided payment method and/or send You a bill for such unpaid fees.

Questions regarding privacy issues should be directed to Our customer service by email at: help@grabmobileapp.com.

LINKS TO THIRD-PARTY SITES

We think links are convenient, and We sometimes provide links on the App to third-party websites.  If You use these links, they will open in a web browser and You will leave the App. We are not obligated to review any third-party websites that You link to from the App, We do not control any of the third-party websites, and We are not responsible for any of the third-party websites (or the products, services, or content available through any of them). Thus, We do not endorse or make any representations about such third-party websites, any information, software, products, services, or materials found there or any results that may be obtained from using them. If You decide to access any of the third-party websites linked to from the App, You do this entirely at Your own risk and You must follow the privacy policies and terms and conditions for those third-party websites. Certain areas of the App may allow You to interact and/or conduct transactions with one or more third-party websites, and, if applicable, allow You to configure Your privacy settings in that third-party website account to permit Your activities on the App to be shared with Your contacts in Your third-party site account.

SUBMISSIONS

Certain areas of the App (e.g., customer ratings and review areas) permit You to submit feedback, information, data, text, messages, or other materials (each, a “User Submission”).  You agree that You are solely responsible for all of Your User Submissions and that any such User Submission is considered both non-confidential and non-proprietary.  Further, We do not guarantee that You will be able to edit or delete any User Submission You have submitted. Given the nature of User Submissions, other users will use the User Submissions that You share. Therefore, if You have ideas or information that You would like to keep confidential do not post or share it via the App.

By submitting any User Submission, You are promising Us that:

· You were not and will not be compensated or granted any consideration by any third party for submitting Your User Submission;

· Use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform, and publicly display Your User Submissions (or any modification thereto), in whole or in part, in any format or medium now known or later developed;

· Use (and permit others to use) Your User Submission in any manner and for any purpose (including, without limitation, commercial purposes) that We deem appropriate in Our sole discretion (including, without limitation, to incorporate Your User Submission or any modification thereto, in whole or in part, into any technology, product, or service);

· Display advertisements in connection with Your User Submissions and to use Your User Submissions for advertising and promotional purposes.

We may, but are not obligated to, pre-screen User Submissions or monitor any area of the App through which User Submissions may be submitted.

We are not responsible for any loss, theft, or damage of any kind to any User Submissions. Further, You agree that We may freely disclose Your User Submission to any third party absent any obligation of confidence on the part of the recipient.

UNAUTHORIZED ACTIVITIES

We authorize Your use of the App only for Permitted Purposes.  Any other use of the App beyond the Permitted Purposes is prohibited and, therefore, constitutes unauthorized use of the App.  This is because as between You and Us, all rights in the App remain Our property.

Unauthorized use of the App may result in violation of various United States and international copyright laws.  Because We prefer keeping this relationship drama-free, We want to give You examples of things to avoid.  So, unless You have written permission from Us stating otherwise, You are not authorized to use the App in any of the following ways (these are examples only and the list below is not a complete list of everything that You are not permitted to do):

· For any public or commercial purpose which includes use of the App on another site or through a networked computer environment;

· To impersonate any person or entity or otherwise misrepresent Your affiliation with a person or entity;

· To interfere with or disrupt the App or servers or networks connected to the App;

· Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any portion of the App or any other accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to the App, whether through hacking, password mining, or any other means.

You agree to hire attorneys to defend Us if You violate these Terms and that violation results in a problem for Us.  You also agree to pay any damages that We may end up having to pay as a result of Your violation.  You alone are responsible for any violation of these Terms by You.  We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by You and, in such case, You agree to cooperate with Our defense of such claim.

PROPRIETARY RIGHTS

“Grab” is a trademark that belongs to Us.  Other trademarks, names and logos on the App are the property of their respective owners.

Unless otherwise specified in these Terms, all Materials, including the arrangement of them on the App are Our sole property, Copyright ©2013-15.  All rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.  Except as otherwise required or limited by applicable law, any reproduction, distribution, modification, retransmission, or publication of any copyrighted material is strictly prohibited without the express written consent of the copyright owner or license. 

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT

We respect the intellectual property rights of others and encourage You to do the same. Accordingly, We have a policy of removing User Submissions that violate intellectual property rights of others, suspending access to the App (or any portion thereof) to any user who uses the App in violation of someone’s intellectual property rights, and/or terminating in appropriate circumstances the account of any user who uses the App in violation of someone’s intellectual property rights.

IF THERE IS A DISPUTE BETWEEN USERS OF THE APP, OR BETWEEN ANY USER OF THE APP AND ANY THIRD PARTY, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT WE ARE UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO BECOME INVOLVED.  IN THE EVENT THAT A DISPUTE ARISES BETWEEN YOU AND ANY THIRD PARTY, YOU HEREBY RELEASE US, OUR OFFICERS, MANAGERS, MEMBERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, ATTORNEYS, AGENTS, AND SUCCESSORS IN RIGHTS FROM ANY CLAIMS, DEMANDS, AND DAMAGES (ACTUAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL) OF EVERY KIND OR NATURE, KNOWN OR UNKNOWN, SUSPECTED OR UNSUSPECTED, FORESEEABLE OR UNFORESEEABLE, DISCLOSED OR UNDISCLOSED, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO SUCH DISPUTES AND/OR THE APP.  IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE §1542, WHICH SAYS: "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."

DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES

THE APP AND ANY OPEN SOURCE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS” AND THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE USE OF, QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE APP IS WITH YOU.

WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND (EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY) WITH RESPECT TO THE APP, WHICH INCLUDE BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO, ANY IMPLIED OR STATUTORY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.

THE LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN YOU AND US.

NEITHER WE NOR OUR LICENSORS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES REGARDING THE USE OR OPERATION OF ANY THIRD PARTY (INCLUDING OPEN SOURCE) SOFTWARE FURNISHED IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS.

LOCAL LAWS; EXPORT CONTROL

We control and operate the App from Our headquarters in the United States of America and the entirety of the App may not be appropriate or available for use in other locations.  If You use the App outside the United States of America, You are solely responsible for following applicable local laws.

FEEDBACK

Any submissions by You to Us (e.g., comments, questions, suggestions, materials – collectively, “Feedback”) through any communication whatsoever (e.g., call, fax, email) will be treated as both non-confidential and non-proprietary.  You hereby assign all right, title, and interest in, and We are free to use, without any attribution or compensation to You, any ideas, know-how, concepts, techniques, or other intellectual property and proprietary rights contained in the Feedback, whether or not patentable, for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing, having manufactured, licensing, marketing, and selling, directly or indirectly, products and services using such Feedback.  You understand and agree that We are not obligated to use, display, reproduce, or distribute any such ideas, know-how, concepts, or techniques contained in the Feedback, and You have no right to compel such use, display, reproduction, or distribution.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Please Read This Provision (“Provision”) Carefully.  It Affects Your Legal Rights.

This Provision facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any dispute (e.g., claim or controversy, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort – including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence – or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below)) that may arise between You and Us.  Effectively, then, “dispute” is given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to You (such as Our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) whenever You also assert claims against Us in the same proceeding.

This Provision provides that all disputes between You and Us shall be resolved by binding arbitration because acceptance of These Terms constitutes a waiver of Your right to litigation claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or jury.  Arbitration is a form of private dispute resolution in which persons with a dispute waive their rights to file a lawsuit, to proceed in court and to a jury trial, and instead submit their disputes to a neutral third person (or arbitrator) for a binding decision. We prefer this because We believe arbitration is less drama-filled than litigation.  To be clear, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited.  The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees).  You may, however, opt-out of this Provision which means You would have a right or opportunity to bring claims in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate in or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including, but not limited to, class actions).  EVERYONE AGREES THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.

Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution

For all Disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, You must first give Us an opportunity to resolve the Dispute which is first done by emailing to Us, at help@grabmobileapp.com, the following information: (1) Your name, (2) Your address, (3) a written description of Your Claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief You seek. If We do not resolve the Dispute within 45 days after receiving Your notification, than You may pursue Your Dispute in arbitration.  You may pursue Your dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.

Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt Out

Notwithstanding the above, Your or We may choose to pursue a Dispute in court and not by arbitration if: (a) The dispute qualifies for initiation in small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THIS AGREEMENT (the “Opt-Out Deadline”).  You may opt-out of this Provision by emailing Us at help@grabmobileapp.com the following information: (1) Your name; (2) Your address; (3) A clear statement that You do not wish to resolve disputes with Us through arbitration. Either way, We will not take any decision You make personally.  In fact, We promise that Your decision to opt-out of this Arbitration Provision will have no adverse effect on Your relationship with Us.  But, We do have to enforce the Opt-Out Deadline so keep in mind that any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and You must pursue Your dispute in arbitration or small claims court.

Arbitration Procedures

If this Provision applies and the dispute is not resolved as provided above (Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution) either You or We may initiate arbitration proceedings.  The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator.  The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration, and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration.  All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision.

For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply.  In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply.  The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.  For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply.  The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267.  This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules.  Under no circumstances will class action procedures or rules apply to the arbitration.

Because the App and these Terms concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all disputes.  However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.

Arbitration Award – The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding.  The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party.  Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.

Location of Arbitration – You or We may initiate arbitration in either New York or the federal judicial district that includes Your billing address.  In the event that You select the latter, We may transfer the arbitration to New York so long as We agree to pay any additional fees or costs which the arbitrator determines You incur as a result of the transfer.

Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs – So long as You place a request in writing prior to commencement of the arbitration, We will pay all arbitration fees and associated costs and expenses. But, You will still be responsible for all additional fees and costs that You incur in the arbitration which include but are not limited to attorneys’ fees or expert witnesses.  In addition to any fees and costs recoverable under applicable law, if You provide notice and negotiate in good faith with Us as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution” and the arbitrator concludes that You are the prevailing party in the arbitration, You will be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator.

Class Action Waiver

Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless both You and We specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration.  If You choose to pursue Your Dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to You.  Neither You, nor any other user of the App can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.

Jury Waiver

You understand and agree that by accepting this Provision in these Terms, You and We are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court.  In the absence of this Provision, You and We might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions).  Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived.  Other rights that You would have if You went to court (e.g., the rights to both appeal and  certain types of discovery) may be more limited or may also be waived.

Severability

If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision whose remainder will be given full force and effect.  If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the dispute will be decided by a court.

Continuation

This Provision shall survive the termination of Your account with Us or Our affiliates and Your deletion or discontinued use of the App.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, We agree that if We make any change to this Provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), You may reject any such change and require Us to adhere to the language in this Provision if a dispute between Us arises.

GENERAL

We think direct communication resolves most issues – if We feel that You are not complying with these Terms, We will tell You.  We will even provide You with recommended necessary corrective action(s) because We value this relationship.

However, certain violations of these Terms, as determined by Us, may require immediate termination of Your access to the App without prior notice to You.  The Federal Arbitration Act, Texas state law and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions, will govern these Terms.  Foreign laws do not apply.  Except for disputes subject to arbitration as described above, any disputes relating to these Terms or the App will be heard in the courts located in Harris County, Texas.  If any of these Terms are deemed inconsistent with applicable law, then such term(s) shall be interpreted to reflect the intentions of the parties, and no other terms will be modified.  By choosing not to enforced any of these Terms, We are not waiving Our rights.  These Terms are the entire agreement between You and Us and, therefore, supersede all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements between Everyone about the App.  The proprietary rights, disclaimer of warranties, representations made by You, indemnities, limitations of liability and general provisions shall survive any termination of these Terms. The application to these Terms of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transactions Act (UCITA) are specifically disclaimed.
