Change in Amount Authorized. If the total amount to be charged varies from the amount you authorized when purchasing any Paid Services (other than due to the imposition or change in the amount of taxes, including without limitation sales and use taxes, duties or other governmental taxes or fees), REPUBLICAN SINGLES will provide notice of the amount to be charged and the date of the charge at least 10 days before the scheduled date of the transaction. You agree to pay the increased price for the Paid Services if you do not cancel your Paid Services before the increased price goes into effect.

Unless otherwise stated, you may exercise any rights applicable to you by providing written notice to us (which includes your REPUBLICAN SINGLES user name and the email address used to register for the Services) by mail at REPUBLICAN SINGLES, LLC., Attn: Refund Request, PO BOX 12934, Scottsdale, AZ 85267.

 

California. The following additional provisions(s) apply if you are a California subscriber (as determined by the zip code you use at the time of your subscription):

 

If by reason of death or Disability (as defined below) you are unable to receive all services for which you have contracted, you and your estate may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payments for the Services other than those received before death or the onset of disability. If you have prepaid any amount for Services, so much of the amount prepaid that is allocable to Services that you have not received shall be promptly refunded to you and your representative. “Disability” means a condition which precludes you from physically using the Services specified in the contract during the term of disability and the condition is verified in writing by a physician designated and remunerated by you. The written verification of the physician shall be presented to REPUBLICAN SINGLES. If the physician determines that the duration of the disability will be less than six months, we may extend the term of the contract for a period of six months at no additional charge to you in lieu of cancellation.

 

You acknowledge that the Services are accessible online and are offered in many locations internationally and that therefore, there is no physical dating service office. Thus, you acknowledge and agree that for purposes of California Civil Code¬§ 1694.3(b), the term “Dating Service Office” shall mean any location where the Services are available. If you relocate your primary residence further than 50 miles from REPUBLICAN SINGLES’s Dating Service Office and you are unable to transfer the contract to a comparable facility, you may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payment for services, other than those received prior to that relocation. Upon such election, if you have prepaid any amount for dating services, so much of the amount prepaid that is allocable to services that you have not received shall be promptly refunded to you If you elect to be relieved of further obligation pursuant to this subdivision, REPUBLICAN SINGLES may charge you a fee of $100.00 or, if more than half the life of the contract has expired, a fee of $50.00, not to exceed the amount of the refund to which you are entitled. Such fee shall be deducted from any refund which REPUBLICAN SINGLES is required to make to you.

 

Illinois. The following additional provision(s) apply if you are an Illinois subscriber (as determined by the zip code you use at the time of your subscription):

 

You acknowledge that the Services are accessible online and are offered in many locations internationally and that therefore, there is no physical dating service office. Thus, you acknowledge and agree that for purposes of the Illinois Dating Referral Services Act, the location of an “enterprise” shall mean any location where the Services are available. If you relocate your primary residence to a location that is more than 25 miles from where our Services are comparably offered, you may cancel this contract and shall be liable only for that portion of the charges allocable to the time before reasonable evidence of the relocation is presented to REPUBLICAN SINGLES plus a fee equal to the lesser of (1) 10% of the unused balance or (2) $50. Such fee shall be deducted from any refund which REPUBLICAN SINGLES is required to make to you.

 

If by reason of death you are unable to receive all services for which you have contracted, your estate may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payments for the Services other than those received before death. We shall have the right to require and verify reasonable evidence of the death.

This shall be your sole remedy for failure to provide the minimum number of referrals.

You acknowledge and agree that if you post any information, including photographs, to the Services for posting on your profile or other areas of the Services, such information will be publicly accessible, and you are consenting to the display of such information on the Services.

 

If you permanently relocate your primary residence further than 50 miles from any area in which REPUBLICAN SINGLES offers the Services, you may elect to terminate your subscription by notifying us in writing at REPUBLICAN SINGLES, LLC., Attn: Refund Request, PO BOX 12934, Scottsdale, AZ 85267.

To do this, you must notify REPUBLICAN SINGLES in writing (which includes your REPUBLICAN SINGLES user name and the email address used to register for the Services) at REPUBLICAN SINGLES, LLC., Attn: Refund Request, PO BOX 12934, Scottsdale, AZ 85267.

We shall have the right to require and verify reasonable evidence of the death or disability.

  1. GOVERNING LAW AND ARBITRATION; WAIVER; INDEMNIFICATION

 

Our goal is to resolve any disputes amicably and quickly and we encourage you to contact us and explain your complaint as soon as it arises.

 

Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, the interpretation and enforcement of, and proceedings pursuant to, Section 24(b) of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16), and we expressly recognize and acknowledge the continuing applicability of our right to contract for binding arbitration and waiver of any right to participate in a class Action or jury trial, as set out in Section 24(b) hereof. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You agree that any claim or dispute you may have against REPUBLICAN SINGLES must be resolved in a federal or state court located in Riverside County, California, USA or as described in the Arbitration provision below. Both you and REPUBLICAN SINGLES retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, violation, or misappropriation of copyrights, trademarks, service marks, trade secrets, patents, or other proprietary or intellectual property rights, as set forth in the Arbitration provision below including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm. You agree that the state or federal courts located in Riverside County, California, USA are the exclusive forum for any proceeding to confirm or vacate an arbitration award rendered in accordance with Section 24(b) hereof (or for any proceeding seeking relief in aid of such arbitration) or in the event that the Arbitration provision below is for any reason held to be unenforceable.

 

Arbitration. READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM REPUBLICAN SINGLES. For any dispute with REPUBLICAN SINGLES, you agree to first attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally by contacting us within 30 days of when the dispute first arises at legal@republicansingles.com. In the unlikely event that REPUBLICAN SINGLES has not been able to informally resolve a dispute it has with you within 60 days, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief described in Section 24(a)) arising out of or in connection with or relating to the Services or this Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof, including disputes related to the applicability, enforceability, formation, or interpretation of this agreement to arbitrate (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by the Judicial Mediation and Arbitration Services (“JAMS”) under the JAMS Optional Expedited Procedures then in effect, except as provided herein. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com. You will have the right to participate in the selection of the arbitrator. If the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator, one may be selected by mutual agreement of the parties or by the procedures provided by JAMS. The arbitrator shall be an attorney licensed to practice in the location where the arbitration proceedings will be conducted or a retired federal or state judicial officer who presided in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted, unless the parties agree otherwise. The arbitration will be conducted in Riverside County, California, USA (or the nearest office to Riverside County), unless you request a hearing in your hometown area or you and REPUBLICAN SINGLES agree otherwise. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings will be English, unless otherwise agreed by the parties. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees and costs will be governed by JAMS rules, but if you are unable to pay any of them, REPUBLICAN SINGLES will pay them for you. The award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorneys’ fees and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. REPUBLICAN SINGLES will not seek its attorneys’ fees or costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines your claims or defenses are frivolous. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of that party’s data security, intellectual property rights, or other proprietary rights. You may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents that you and REPUBLICAN SINGLES submit to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing.

 

CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER. YOU AND REPUBLICAN SINGLES AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND REPUBLICAN SINGLES ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

 

Indemnity. You agree to defend, indemnify and hold REPUBLICAN SINGLES, its subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their directors, officers, managers, agents, contractors, partners and employees harmless from any loss, liability, claim, damages, costs, debts, expenses or demand, including reasonable attorney’s fees, due to or arising from (i) your use of or access to the Services, including any data or content transmitted or received by you, or your inability to use the Services; (ii) any claim or damages that arise as a result of any of your User Content or any User Content that is submitted via your account (iii) your conduct in connection with the Services or our users, (iv) your violation of any of the terms of this Agreement, including and without limitation your breach of any of the representations and warranties above, (v) your violation of any rights of a Third-Party, including without limitation any right of privacy or intellectual property rights; (vi) any other party’s access and use of the Services with your unique username, password or other appropriate security code or (viii) your violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

 

Severability. If any clause within this Section 24 is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this section and the remainder of the section will be given full force and effect, except that in the event of unenforceability of the universal Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver, the entire arbitration agreement shall be unenforceable.

 

  1. MISCELLANEOUS

 

This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by REPUBLICAN SINGLES without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void. You acknowledge and agree that this Agreement, together with the Privacy Policy and any Additional Terms, contains the entire agreement between you and REPUBLICAN SINGLES regarding the use of the Services and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (including and without limitation any prior versions of this Agreement), except to the extent that the parties have entered into a separate written agreement applicable to the Services that expressly governs over this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement, or any portion thereof, is held illegal, invalid, unenforceable, or, void such provision will be interpreted and changed to accomplish the objectives of the provision to the greatest extent possible under any applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect, except that in the event of unenforceability of the universal Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver, the entire arbitration agreement shall be unenforceable. The failure of REPUBLICAN SINGLES to exercise or enforce any right or provision in this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. Other than any entities that REPUBLICAN SINGLES owns a 50% or greater interest in, or as otherwise set forth herein, there are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement and no Third-Party who is not a party to this Agreement shall have any right to enforce any term of this Agreement. REPUBLICAN SINGLES, LLC is a corporation organized under the laws of the State of California, USA.
