10.  INDEMNIFICATION

10.1.   Indemnification by Spotnana.  Spotnana agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Corporate User, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and affiliates against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, settlements and expenses (including without limitation reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with any third party claim or action that arises from an alleged infringement or misappropriation by the Subscription Services of any United States patent or any copyright or misappropriation of any trade secret. The obligations in this Section 10.1 do not apply with respect to portions or components of the Subscription Service to the extent: (i) not supplied by Spotnana; (ii) that are modified after delivery by Spotnana where the alleged infringement relates to such modification; or (iii) combined with other products, processes or materials where the alleged infringement relates to such combination; or (iv) where Client continues allegedly infringing activity after being notified thereof or after being informed of modifications that would have avoided the alleged infringement, or (v) where Client’s use of the Subscription Service is not strictly in accordance with this Agreement. If, due to a claim of infringement, the Subscription Services are held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be or are believed by Spotnana to be infringing, Spotnana may, at its option and expense: (a) replace or modify the Subscription Service to be non-infringing, or (b) obtain for Client a license to continue using the Subscription Service, or (c ) if neither of the foregoing is commercially practicable, terminate this Agreement and Client’s rights hereunder and provide Client a refund of any prepaid, unused Spotnana Fees for the Service. Spotnana’ obligations under this Section 10.1 are contingent upon: (a) Client providing Spotnana with prompt written notice of such claim; (b) Client providing reasonable cooperation to Spotnana, at Spotnana’ expense, in the defense and settlement of such claim; and (c ) Spotnana having sole authority to defend or settle such claim.

10.2.   Indemnification by Client.

11.  LIMITATION OF LIABILITY  

11.1.   Acknowledgment.  YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE ENTIRE RISK ARISING OUT OF YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES AND THE SPOTNANA APPS’ CONTENT REMAINS WITH YOU.

11.2.   Exclusion of Certain Damages.  EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 11.4 BELOW, IN NO EVENT WILL EITHER SPOTNANA OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY INVOLVED IN CREATING, PRODUCING OR DELIVERING THE SPOTNANA SERVICES BE LIABLE UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, FOR ANY CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING ANY DAMAGES THAT MAY CONSIST OF LOST PROFITS OR LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY OR LOSS OF DATA OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE PRODUCTS OR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE), OR FOR ANY DAMAGES FOR PERSONAL OR BODILY INJURY OR EMOTIONAL DISTRESS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE SPOTNANA SERVICES, THE SPOTNANA APPS’ CONTENT OR THE TRAVEL SERVICES), REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH PARTY WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR SUCH DAMAGES WERE OTHERWISE FORESEEABLE.

11.3.   Liability Cap. EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN SECTION 11.4 BELOW, IN NO EVENT SHALL SPOTNANA’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO THE CLIENT IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT EXCEED THE TOTAL SPOTNANA FEES PAID BY CLIENT IN THE TWELVE MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE CLAIM OR ACTION, REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OR THEORY OF THE CLAIM OR ACTION. THE LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH IN SECTIONS 11.2 AND 11.3 ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN SPOTNANA AND YOU. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.  THE EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 11 SHALL (A) APPLY REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION, WHETHER THE BASIS OF THE LIABILITY IS BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE AND STRICT LIABILITY), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND (B) BE INDEPENDENT OF, AND SHALL SURVIVE, ANY FAILURE OF THE ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY WARRANTY OR LIMITED REMEDY STATED HEREIN.

 

11.4.   Certain Exclusions.  THE DAMAGES EXCLUSIONS AND CAP IN SECTION 11.2 AND SECTION 11.3 ABOVE SHALL NOT APPLY SOLELY TO THE INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATIONS OF SPOTNANA AS SET OUT IN SECTION 10.1.

12.  CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. “Confidential Information” means any technical and business information disclosed by a Party to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) in discussions and activities related to this Agreement, provided that it is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or should be reasonably known by the Receiving Party to be Confidential Information due to the nature of the information disclosed and the circumstances surrounding the disclosure. Client’s Confidential Information includes the Client Data. Spotnana’s Confidential Information includes the Spotnana Properties, the Subscription Services and Aggregated Data, the terms and conditions of and all Order Forms (including pricing), as well as business and marketing plans, technology and technical information, product plans and designs, and business processes disclosed by Spotnana. Any performance information relating to the Services, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement will be deemed Confidential Information of Spotnana. During the Term and for a period of five (5) years after expiration or termination of this Agreement, neither Party shall make the other’s Confidential Information available to any third party or use the other’s Confidential Information for any purposes other than exercising its rights and performing its obligations under this Agreement. Neither Party shall disclose Confidential Information except to such Party’s advisors, accountants, attorneys, investors (and prospective investors), and prospective acquirers that have a reasonable need to know such information, provided that any such third parties shall, before they may access such information, either (a) execute a binding agreement to keep such information confidential or (b) be subject to a professional obligation to maintain the confidentiality of such information. The Receiving Party’s obligations under this Section will not apply to information which the Receiving Party can document: (i) was rightfully in its possession or known to it prior to receipt of the Confidential Information; (ii) is or has become public knowledge through no fault of the Receiving Party; (iii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party without breach of any confidentiality obligation; or (iv) is independently developed by employees of the Receiving Party who had no access to such information. The Receiving Party may also disclose Confidential Information if so required pursuant to a regulation, law or court order (but only to the minimum extent required to comply with such regulation or order and with advance notice to the Disclosing Party). The Receiving Party acknowledges that disclosure of Confidential Information would cause substantial harm for which damages alone would not be a sufficient remedy, and therefore that upon any such disclosure by the Receiving Party the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever other remedies it might have at law.

 

13.  DISPUTES.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY: IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND GOVERNS HOW YOU AND SPOTNANA CAN BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER. THIS SECTION WILL, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION, REQUIRE YOU AND SPOTNANA TO SUBMIT CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER TO BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.

13.1.   Informal Resolution. Before filing a claim, each Party agrees to try to resolve the dispute by contacting the other party through reasonable means and providing notice of the dispute. Both Parties will use good faith efforts to attempt to reach a resolution. If a dispute is not resolved within thirty (30) days of notice, either party may bring a formal proceeding.

13.2.   Agreement to Arbitrate. Spotnana and Client agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Spotnana Properties, or Client’s use of the Subscription Services including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitration (collectively “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights. THIS MEANS THAT YOU AND SPOTNANA BOTH AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. Any Dispute shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA“), but the parties do not necessarily intend for the AAA to administer the arbitration. The arbitration will take place in San Francisco, CA, or any other location mutually agreeable to the Parties, and the internal laws of the State of California (other than conflicts of laws rules) and of the United States of America shall apply. Part or all of the arbitration may be conducted by telephone or based on written submissions, and will not require the personal appearance of the parties or any witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties. The allocation of costs and fees for such arbitration shall be determined in accordance with the AAA Rules. If such costs are finally determined to be excessive in a consumer dispute, Spotnana will be responsible for paying all arbitration fees and arbitrator compensation in excess of what is deemed reasonable. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator engaged in the practice of law who is mutually agreed upon by the Parties or failing such agreement within 14 days from the delivery of the original arbitration demand, each Party shall select one arbitrator and the two selected arbitrators shall mutually agree upon the selection of a third arbitrator within 30 days from the delivery of the original arbitration demand. The arbitrator’s decision and award shall be final and binding and may be entered in any court with jurisdiction. Nothing in this User Agreement will prevent a party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief with respect to the infringement, misappropriation or other violation of such party’s intellectual property or other proprietary rights in any court of competent jurisdiction.  In the event the foregoing agreement to arbitrate is deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable with respect to any claim, dispute or controversy, then you agree that any such claim, dispute or controversy shall be filed and adjudicated only in the state and federal courts located in San Francisco, California and you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of this User Agreement.

13.3.   Exceptions. Either party may bring a lawsuit in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco, California (i) to enforce the arbitration provisions of this Agreement, or (ii) for equitable relief. Spotnana and Client hereby consent to exclusive jurisdiction in such courts.

13.4.   Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CLIENT OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANOTHER CLIENT OR USER.

Spotnana Travel Addendum

This Spotnana Travel Addendum governs the reservation, purchase and use of all Travel Services, and is incorporated into the Spotnana Terms and Conditions of Service Agreement (the “Agreement”).  All terms used in this Travel Addendum but not defined herein shall have the same meaning as assigned to them under the Agreement.

1.     Use of the Travel Services.  Client and each Authorized User acknowledges and agrees that:

(a)   Spotnana acts only as a booking platform for the Travel Vendors and is not responsible for the acts or omissions of Travel Vendors, including, without limitation, their failure to provide services, adhere to their own schedules, provide services or refunds, financial default, failure to honor future trip credits, or otherwise honor their contracts. We have no special knowledge regarding the financial conditions of any Travel Vendor and accordingly will have no liability for recommending a trip credit in lieu of a refund. In our role as a booking platform and provider of Subscription Services, we act as an intermediary agent and independent third party between you and the Travel Vendors; no joint venture, partnership, employment, agency, representative, fiduciary or similar relationship exists between you and us, or any Travel Vendor, as a result of your use of our Travel Services.  We assist you in finding Travel Vendors and making certain arrangements for travel. We consider various factors in identifying Travel Vendors and recommending specific itineraries.

(b)   Additional terms, conditions , policies, rules, or restrictions dictated by the applicable Travel Vendor (the “Travel Vendor Terms”) shall apply to your reservation and/or purchase of applicable Travel Services. By purchasing any Travel Services through the Subscription Services, you agree to abide by all the Travel Vendor Terms, and to be bound by the limitations therein, including, payment of all amounts when due and compliance with the applicable Travel Vendor Terms. If the Travel Vendor Terms are ever in conflict with the Agreement, the Agreement including this Spotnana Travel Addendum, will control all issues relating to the liabilities and responsibilities of Spotnana.  You understand that any violation of any such Travel Vendor Terms, including timely payment, may result in: (i) you forfeiting any monies paid for such reservation or purchase, (ii) cancellation of your reservation or purchase, (iii) you being denied access to any flights, hotels, or any other products or services, and (iv) us debiting your account for any costs we incur as a result of such violation. You acknowledge and agree that: (i) Travel Vendors may change their prices without notice prior to reservation or purchase by you, and (ii) you shall be responsible for all charges, fees, duties, taxes, and assessments arising out of your use of Travel Services, including, without limitation, all reservations and purchases you make through the Travel Services. You acknowledge that some Travel Vendors may require you to sign a liability waiver or other forms prior to using their services, and you understand that your unwillingness to do so may result in a cancellation of your reservation(s), being denied access to the Travel Vendor’s services, and forfeiting any monies paid for such reservation(s), in accordance with applicable Travel Vendor Terms. Through the Travel Services you may make a reservation for a combination of two one-way air tickets instead of a roundtrip air ticket. Unlike roundtrip air tickets, each one-way ticket is subject to its own rules, restrictions, and fees. If one of these flights is affected by an airline change (e.g., cancellation or rescheduling) that causes a you to make changes to the other flight, you acknowledge that you shall be responsible for any fees incurred for making changes to the unaffected flight, including any difference in fare and change/cancellation penalties.

(c )   At the time of reservation/purchase, your credit/charge card may be charged the total cost of the Travel Vendor products and services that you selected, including taxes and fees (but excluding any mandatory hotel-imposed charges that may be applicable upon check out from the hotel). You may see separate charges on your credit/charge card statement (from Spotnana and from the Travel Vendors you selected). If applicable, certain mandatory hotel-imposed charges are payable to the property upon check-out (e.g., mandatory resort fees); any incidental charges that you make during your stay will be charged to you by the property upon check-out, including but not limited to parking, phone calls, internet access and room service. Some properties have age requirements; please check with the property for more information. Your reservation/purchase includes the products/services that you selected; therefore, if baggage, seat-selection, or similar ancillary items were not included in those products/services, additional Travel Vendor fees may apply. If you purchased a flight, your flight is not confirmed until ticketed.

(d)   You are solely responsible for reviewing and complying with Travel Vendors’ restrictions and requirements, including with respect to luggage allowances and restrictions, as well as bag-check and check-in timing requirements, and COVID-19 specific rules and requirements; and all purchases of Travel Services are subject to fare rules and any other terms and conditions presented at the time such booking is made, including without limitation, rules regarding refunds and/or cancellations

(e)   You may only use the Travel Services to make legitimate reservations or purchases for you or other persons for whom you are authorized to act, and you shall not use any Travel Services  for any other purposes, including, without limitation, making any speculative, false, fictitious or fraudulent reservation. You shall not use, nor shall you permit any use of, any Subscription Services in conjunction with any of your activities or by anyone that resides, stays, or is accessing a Travel Service from a country prohibited under U.S. export and/or Office of Foreign Assets Control regulations, including, without limitation, regulations based upon sanctions, country programs against, or embargoes.

5.     Prices and Surcharges.

(a)   Only items and fees explicitly advertised as included in the price of a Travel Service will be included as part of Travel Service’s advertised price. Spotnana will use commercially reasonable endeavors to publish and maintain accurate prices and information for Travel Services through the Subscription Services and through our agents. Travel Vendors provide us with the price, availability and other information related to the Travel Services. In the event, however, that a Travel Service is listed or provided to us at an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to typographical error or other error in pricing or service information received from a Travel Vendor, we retain the right to refuse or cancel any purchase for such Travel Service, whether or not the order has been confirmed and/or your credit card charged. If your credit card has already been charged for the purchase and your purchase is canceled because of incorrect Travel Vendor information, we will promptly issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount of the charge.

(b)   Travel Services involving airline and cruise components are subject to Travel Vendors’ supplemental price increases that may be imposed by the Travel Vendor and/or government, even after you have completed your purchase. You hereby consent to any such price increases and authorize your credit or debit card to be used for them.

(c )   We expressly reserve the right to correct any pricing errors for Travel Services and/or on pending reservations made under an incorrect price. In such an event, if available, we will offer you the opportunity to keep your pending reservation at the correct price or we will cancel your reservation without penalty.

(d)   Our prices are contractual tariffs. No claim relating to the price of a Trip will be considered once the reservation is effective. All prices are quoted in US dollars (USD) unless otherwise denoted. Rates for Travel Services are based on tariffs and exchange rates in effect at the time of posting and are subject to change prior to departure. Substantial changes in tariffs, exchange rates, the price of fuel, services and labor sometimes increase the cost of Travel Service arrangements significantly.

 

6.     Cancellation Substitution, Alteration Policies; Insurance

(a)   Cancellations or Modifications attributable to Authorized User: Once ticketed, the name on the ticket cannot be changed and tickets are non-transferable. Cancellations, substitutions, no-shows, and/or alteration ofterms of any Travel Services purchased vary by Travel Vendor. Your reservation/purchase may be non-refundable and non-cancellable. It is your responsibility to familiarize yourself with the applicable Travel Vendor Terms prior to purchase, so we urge you to read them carefully. You will be responsible for any and all charges and fees levied by the Travel Vendor in connection with any such cancellation, substitution, no-show, or other alteration (each, a “Change”).  In case of any such Change, Spotnana will refund to the Authorized User the corresponding booking amounts less any costs applied by the Travel Vendor for such Change (provided that said Travel Vendor expressly allows and previously reimburses such amount to Spotnana). In this regard, Spotnana may, at its sole discretion, refund the corresponding amount, if applicable, by wire transfer to the Client/Authorized User’s bank account or by means of discounting such amount from the next invoice to be issued to the Client/Authorized User. Upon such receipt, you are responsible for promptly reviewing your reservation/purchase confirmation/itinerary for accuracy and immediately notifying us of any errors. If your reservation/purchase is with multiple Travel Vendors, and if cancellation is permitted by one Travel Vendor and not the other, you will not be refunded for the portion of your trip for which cancellations are not permitted and you will be required to cancel your entire trip.

(b)   Cancellations and/or Alterations not attributable to Authorized User: Due to Force Majeure or Travel Vendor requests, changes and/or cancellations may need to be made to confirmed purchases. While we always endeavor to avoid changes and cancellations, we must reserve the right to do so and to substitute alternative arrangements of comparable monetary value. Spotnana reserves the right to adjust the Travel Service or change the modes of ground and air travel, change the quality of accommodations or otherwise change the Travel Service without prior notice. We accept no liability for loss of enjoyment as a result of these changes. Any additional charges incurred arising from the postponement, delay or extension of a Trip or adjustment to the itinerary due to Force Majeure will be the Authorized User’s responsibility. Spotnana will attempt to provide Authorized Users’ with advanced notice of any changes to a Trip or Travel Services to the extent commercially possible.

(c )   Insurance: For your protection, we strongly recommend that you purchase trip cancellation and travel accident insurance. Please note that, unless you buy a cancel-for-any-reason policy, most policies have a specific clause stating they do not cover epidemics and pandemics, especially when travel warnings are in place. No representation or description of the insurance made by our staff constitutes a binding assurance or promise about the insurance. You agree to hold us harmless for your election not to purchase travel insurance or for any denial of claim by travel insurer as it relates to COVID-19 or any other claim under the policy.

7.     Issuing Travel Documents. Travel documents will only be sent to the purchasing Authorized User who places the order and personally agrees to this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Spotnana Travel Addendum). Should you change your email address, phone number, or address before your departure date, you are required to advise us of the change. If an Authorized Traveler provides incorrect information to Spotnana, we do not assume any liability if the purchase is adversely affected or made impossible by the non-receipt of travel documents.

8.     Passports, Visas, Reciprocity Fees, and Travel Health Requirements. You assume full and complete responsibility for checking and verifying any and all passport, visa, vaccination, or other entry requirements of your destination and your connecting points, and all conditions regarding health, safety, security, political stability, and labor or civil unrest at such destination. Many countries require your passport to be valid for six months or more after your date of entry. Some countries will not admit persons convicted of a crime. Some countries require both parents’ consent for minors to travel.

9.     Credit Card Merchant. We also strongly recommend that you use a credit card for your purchase of Travel Services, so that you can exercise your rights under the Fair Credit Billing Act if you do not receive the Travel Services you purchased. However, if we are the credit card merchant, our role is to facilitate the sale, collect funds on your behalf, and remit those funds to the applicable Travel Vendors. If the Travel Vendors do not provide the Travel Services, your only recourse would be against the applicable Travel Vendor, and you agree not to initiate a chargeback against us.

 

10.  Algorithm. The Subscription Services make use of certain proprietary algorithms (collectively, the “Spotnana Algorithm”) that take into account factors such as Established Travel Policies, Authorized User profiles and behavior, current market conditions, and other relevant factors to determine dynamic travel policy limits, market price, sorting of Travel Services results, availability of special products and discounts, or other features. The Spotnana Algorithm does not determine or affect the price of any Travel Services. Client acknowledges that the Spotnana Algorithm is a dynamic feature of the Subscription Services and may display different results in connection with different Authorized Users, travel dates, locations and other profile and search elements.

11.  Modification.  Spotnana reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to enhance, modify, discontinue or terminate all or any portion of this Spotnana Travel Addendum, at any time and without prior notice. If we modify this Spotnana Travel Addendum, we will post the modification on the Spotnana Site or provide you with notice of the modification. We will also update the “Last Updated Date” at the top of this Spotnana Travel Addendum or on the Spotnana Web App or Spotnana Mobile App. If you do not agree to any change(s) after such notice of such change(s) is provided or posted, you shall stop using the Spotnana Services to purchase the Travel Services.  Otherwise, your continued use of the Spotnana Services to purchase Travel Services, constitutes your acceptance of such change(s).

12.  Claims Deadline. YOU AGREE TO PRESENT ANY CLAIMS AGAINST US RELATING TO TRAVEL SERVICES WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER YOUR TRIP ENDS AND TO FILE SUIT WITHIN ONE YEAR OF THE INCIDENT, AND YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS EXPRESSLY LIMITS THE APPLICABLE STATUTE OF LIMITATIONS TO ONE YEAR.
