Working with Service Providers. The services provided by VivaValet consist of facilitating the booking and payment of services provided by third party service providers who offer a variety of services through the Platform (each a “Service Provider”). Each Service Provider offering services on the Platform has entered into an agreement with VivaValet (each a “Service Provider Agreement”) in which the Service Provider agrees to provide services to Platform users in a timely and professional manner, in accordance with the terms of the Service Provider Agreement and with applicable laws. The terms of each Service Provider Agreement require the Service Provider to represent and warrant to VivaValet that it is qualified and licensed to provide the services offered through the Platform, and that it will maintain all necessary licenses, permits, and insurance required to perform the services offered through the Platform. In addition, VivaValet performs an extensive background check on each Service Provider prior to allowing a Service Provider to offer its services through the Platform.

VivaValet does not provide you with any of the services offered by Service Providers. You acknowledge and understand that VivaValet is not responsible or liable for the quality, safety, or legality of the services provided by Service Providers and VivaValet shall not be held liable for any disputes or issues arising from your agreement with any Service Providers. You agree to cooperate with VivaValet and the Service Provider and to provide any and all information necessary for the Service Provider to perform the services you requested. You acknowledge that you are responsible for providing a safe and accessible work environment for the Service Provider to perform the Services.

Payment Terms. You must make full payment for services ordered through the Platform in United States Dollars through the payment method selected at the time of your order. Unless otherwise set forth in these Terms of Use, such payments are non-refundable and irrevocable. Automated payment may be made by credit card or debit card.

You understand and acknowledge that any expenses related to spare parts installation, repair of damages, or other out-of-pocket costs incurred by Service Providers and necessary to fulfill the services ordered by you shall be your sole responsibility. VivaValet may facilitate payment for reasonable cost of such repair or cleaning on behalf of the Service Provider by deducting it from your designated payment method once the Service Provider’s repair or cleaning request has been verified by VivaValet.

VivaValet reserves the right to decline processing a refund if it fails to meet the conditions outlined in this Agreement or if prohibited by law. If VivaValet declines a refund, it will inform you within the refund processing timeframe. To contest an unauthorized or inaccurately processed refund on your account, you must promptly notify VivaValet upon becoming aware of the error or unauthorized refund, but in any event within no later than 7 (seven) days after the refund's debit date.

Additional Services. If you require additional services from a Service Provider while they are on site, you and the Service Provider must agree to those services and the price to be paid for such services in writing by signing a written document that states what additional services are to be provided, and the fee for such services (each a “Change Order” ). The Service Provider will then upload the signed Change Order to the Platform, and VivaValet will subsequently prompt you to pay for the additional services through the Platform. All payments for Change Orders must be made through the Platform before the additional services are rendered.

Any costs related to materials required for work outlined in a Change Order shall be subject to your prior approval as part of the Change Order.

Cancelation Terms and Fees. You may cancel or reschedule a service order at no extra cost if done at least 24 hours before the appointment time. If you cancel an order less than 24-hours in advance of the appointment, you will be charged a fee in amount equal to 25% of the fee for the services ordered. If you are a “no show” at the designated location where services are to be provided, you will be charged a no-show fee equivalent to 50% of the fee for the services ordered.

VivaValet shall not be liable for any cancellations by the Service Provider.

In the event you are incorrectly charged a fee, you may contact VivaValet support for assistance. VivaValet reserves the right to issue a refund, or not issue a refund, at its absolute discretion. Any refunds will be credited to the payment card you used when you booked the service.

Applicability of Laws The laws of the United States and the State of Delaware, excluding Delaware’s conflict of laws rules, will apply to any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use and/or the Platform.

Binding Arbitration Without limiting any other provision of these Terms of Use, you agree to the following:

  1. Purpose. Any and all Disputes (as defined below) involving you and VivaValet will be resolved through individual arbitration. In arbitration, there is no judge or jury and there is less discovery and appellate review than in court. This Section (the “Arbitration Provision”) shall be broadly interpreted. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms of Use, the Arbitration Provision does not apply to an action by either party to enjoin the infringement or misuse of its intellectual property rights, including copyright, trademark, patent or trade secret rights.

  2. Definitions. The term “Dispute” means any claim or controversy related to the Platform, including but not limited to any and all: (1) claims for relief and theories of liability, whether based in contract, tort, fraud, negligence, statute, regulation, ordinance, or otherwise; (2) claims that arose before these Terms of Use or any prior agreement; (3) claims that arise after the expiration or termination of these Terms of Use; and (4) claims that are currently the subject of purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class. As used in this Arbitration Provision, “VivaValet” means VivaValet and any of its predecessors, successors, assigns, parents, subsidiaries and affiliated companies and each of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and “you” means you and any users or beneficiaries of your access to the Platform.

  3. Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding/Selection of Arbitrator. The party initiating the arbitration proceeding may open a case with JAMS, formerly Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Website, Inc., (“JAMS”) by visiting its website (www.jamsadr.com) or calling its toll-free number (1-800-352-5267). You may deliver any required or desired notice to VivaValet by mail to 5250 Old Orchard Rd., Suite 300 Skokie, IL, 60077.

  4. Right to Sue in Small Claims Court. Notwithstanding anything in this Arbitration Provision to the contrary, either you or VivaValet may bring an individual action in a small claims court in the area where you access the Platform if the claim is not aggregated with the claim of any other person and if the amount in controversy is properly within the jurisdiction of the small claims court.

  5. Arbitration Procedures. This Arbitration Provision shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. Arbitrations shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “JAMS Rules”) as modified by the version of this Arbitration Provision that is in effect when you notify VivaValet about your Dispute. You can obtain the JAMS Rules from the JAMS by visiting its website (www.jamsadr.com) or calling its toll-free number (1-800-352-5267). If there is a conflict between this Arbitration Provision and the rest of these Terms of Use, this Arbitration Provision shall govern. If there is a conflict between this Arbitration Provision and the JAMS rules, this Arbitration Provision shall govern. If JAMS will not administer a proceeding under this Arbitration Provision as written, the parties shall agree on a substitute arbitration organization. If the parties cannot agree, the parties shall mutually petition a court of appropriate jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration organization that will administer a proceeding under this Arbitration Provision as written applying the JAMS Rules. A single arbitrator will resolve the Dispute. Unless you and VivaValet agree otherwise, any arbitration hearing will take place in New York, NY. The arbitrator will honor claims of privilege recognized by law and will take reasonable steps to protect customer account information and other confidential or proprietary information. The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision that explains the arbitrator’s essential findings and conclusions. The arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties only if necessary for purposes of enforcing the arbitrator’s award. An arbitrator’s award that has been fully satisfied shall not be entered in any court.

  6. Waiver of Class Actions and Collective Relief. THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS ACTION, JOINT OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR ON BASES INVOLVING CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC (SUCH AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL), OTHER SUBSCRIBERS, OR OTHER PERSONS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.

  7. Arbitration Fees and Costs. If your claim seeks more than $75,000 in the aggregate, the payment of the JAMS’s fees and costs will be governed by the JAMS Rules. If your claims seek less than $75,000 in the aggregate, the payment of the JAMS’s fees and costs will be VivaValet’s responsibility. However, if the arbitrator finds that your Dispute was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), the payment of the JAMS’s fees and costs shall be governed by the JAMS Rules and you shall reimburse VivaValet for all fees and costs that were your obligation to pay under the JAMS Rules. You may hire an attorney to represent you in arbitration. You are responsible for your attorneys’ fees and additional costs and may only recover your attorneys’ fees and costs in the arbitration to the extent that you could in court if the arbitration is decided in your favor. Notwithstanding anything in this Arbitration Provision to the contrary, VivaValet will pay all fees and costs that it is required by law to pay.

  8. Severability and Waiver of Jury Trial.
