PLEASE NOTE THAT, AS STATED ABOVE, THE SITE, APPLICATION AND SERVICES ARE INTENDED TO BE USED TO FACILITATE THE BOOKING OF ACCOMMODATIONS. RVWITHME CANNOT AND DOES NOT CONTROL THE CONTENT CONTAINED IN ANY LISTINGS AND THE CONDITION, LEGALITY OR SUITABILITY OF ANY ACCOMMODATIONS. RVWITHME IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR AND DISCLAIMS ANY AND ALL LIABILITY RELATED TO ANY AND ALL LISTINGS AND ACCOMMODATIONS. ACCORDINGLY, ANY BOOKINGS WILL BE MADE AT THE GUEST’S OWN RISK.
Account Registration
In order to access certain features of the Site and Application, and to book an Accommodation or create a Listing, you must register to create an account (“RVwithME Account”) and become a Member. You may register to join the Services directly via the Site or Application or as described in this section.
You can also register to join by logging into your account with certain third party social networking sites (“SNS”) (including, but not limited to, Facebook); each such account, a “Third Party Account”, via our Site or Application, as described below. As part of the functionality of the Site, Application and Services, you may link your RVwithME Account with Third Party Accounts, by either: (i) providing your Third Party Account login information to RVwithME through the Site, Services or Application; or (ii) allowing RVwithME to access your Third Party Account, as is permitted under the applicable terms and conditions that govern your use of each Third Party Account. You represent that you are entitled to disclose your Third Party Account login information to RVwithME and/or grant RVwithME access to your Third Party Account (including, but not limited to, for use for the purposes described herein), without breach by you of any of the terms and conditions that govern your use of the applicable Third Party Account and without obligating RVwithME to pay any fees or making RVwithME subject to any usage limitations imposed by such third party service providers. By granting RVwithME access to any Third Party Accounts, you understand that RVwithME will access, make available and store (if applicable) any Content that you have provided to and stored in your Third Party Account (“SNS Content”) so that it is available on and through the Site, Services and Application via your RVwithME Account and RVwithME Account profile page. Unless otherwise specified in these Terms, all SNS Content, if any, will be considered to be Member Content for all purposes of these Terms. Depending on the Third Party Accounts you choose and subject to the privacy settings that you have set in such Third Party Accounts, personally identifiable information that you post to your Third Party Accounts will be available on and through your RVwithME Account on the Site, Services and Application. Please note that if a Third Party Account or associated service becomes unavailable or RVwithME’s access to such Third Party Account is terminated by the third party service provider, then SNS Content will no longer be available on and through the Site, Services and Application. You have the ability to disable the connection between your RVwithME Account and your Third Party Accounts, at any time, by accessing the “Settings” section of the Site and Application.
PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR THIRD PARTY ACCOUNTS IS GOVERNED SOLELY BY YOUR AGREEMENT(S) WITH SUCH THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS.
RVwithME makes no effort to review any SNS Content for any purpose, including but not limited to, for accuracy, legality or non-infringement and RVwithME is not responsible for any SNS Content.
We will create your RVwithME Account and your RVwithME Account profile page for your use of the Site and Application based upon the personal information you provide to us or that we obtain via an SNS as described above. You may not have more than one (1) active RVwithME Account. You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. RVwithME reserves the right to suspend or terminate your RVwithME Account and your access to the Site, Application and Services if you create more than one (1) RVwithME Account or if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, not current or incomplete. You are responsible for safeguarding your password. You agree that you will not disclose your password to any third party and that you will take sole responsibility for any activities or actions under your RVwithME Account, whether or not you have authorized such activities or actions. You will immediately notify RVwithME of any unauthorized use of your RVwithME Account.
Accommodation Listings
As a Member, you may create Listings. To this end, you will be asked a variety of questions about the Accommodation to be listed, including, but not limited to, the location, capacity, size, features, availability of the Accommodation and pricing and related rules and financial terms, and also applies to listing a RV for rent. In order to be featured in Listings via the Site, Application and Services, all Accommodations must have valid physical addresses, including location of RV for rent if applicable. Listings will be made publicly available via the Site, Application and Services. Other Members will be able to book your Accommodation via the Site, Application and Services based upon the information provided in your Listing. You understand and agree that once a Guest requests a booking of your Accommodation, the price for such booking may not be altered.
You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for any and all Listings you post. Accordingly, you represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the booking of, or Guest stay at, an Accommodation in a Listing you post (i) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties and (ii) will (a) be in compliance with all applicable laws, Tax requirements, and rules and regulations that may apply to any Accommodation included in a Listing you post, including, but not limited to, zoning laws and laws governing rentals of residential and other properties and (b) not conflict with the rights of third parties. Please note that RVwithME assumes no responsibility for a Host’s compliance with any applicable laws, rules and regulations. RVwithME reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to any Listing for any reason, including Listings that RVwithME, in its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms or otherwise harmful to the Site, Application or Services.
You understand and agree that RVwithME does not act as an insurer or as a contracting agent for you as a Host. If a Guest requests a booking of your Accommodation and stays at your Accommodation, any agreement you enter into with such Guest is between you and the Guest and RVwithME is not a party thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, RVwithME serves as the limited authorized agent of the Host for the purpose of accepting payments from Guests on behalf of the Host and is responsible for transmitting such payments to the Host.
When you create a Listing, you may also choose to include certain requirements which must be met by the Members who are eligible to request a booking of your Accommodation, including, but not limited to, requiring Members to have a profile picture or verified phone number, in order to book your Accommodation. Any Member wishing to book Accommodations included in Listings with such requirements must meet these requirements. More information on how to set such requirements is available via the “Hosting” section of the Site, Application and Services.
If you are a Host, RVwithME makes certain tools available to you to help you to make informed decisions about which Members you choose to confirm for booking for your Accommodation. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Host, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who reside at or are otherwise present at the Accommodation at your request or invitation, excluding the Guest (and the individuals the Guest invites to the Accommodation, if applicable.)
RVwithME recommends that Hosts obtain appropriate insurance for their Accommodations. Please review any insurance policy that you may have for your Accommodation carefully, and in particular please make sure that you are familiar with and understand any exclusions to, and any deductibles that may apply for, such insurance policy, including, but not limited to, whether or not your insurance policy will cover the actions or inactions of Guests (and the individuals the Guest invites to the Accommodation, if applicable) while at your Accommodation.
No Endorsement
RVwithME does not endorse any Members or any Accommodations. In addition, although these Terms require Members to provide accurate information, we do not attempt to confirm, and do not confirm, any Member’s purported identity. You are responsible for determining the identity and suitability of others who you contact via the Site, Application and Services. Except as provided in the RVwithME Host Guarantee Terms and Conditions (“RVwithME Host Guarantee”), which is an agreement between RVwithME and Hosts, we will not be responsible for any damage or harm resulting from your interactions with other Members. (Please see RVwithME’s Host Guarantee Terms and Conditions at http://www.rvwithme.com/page/terms-of-service for information about the RVwithME Host Guarantee.)
By using the Site, Application or Services, you agree that any legal remedy or liability that you seek to obtain for actions or omissions of other Members or other third parties will be limited to a claim against the particular Members or other third parties who caused you harm and you agree not to attempt to impose liability on, or seek any legal remedy from RVwithME with respect to such actions or omissions. Accordingly, we encourage you to communicate directly with other Members on the Site and Services regarding any bookings or Listings made by you. This limitation shall not apply to any claim by a Host against RVwithME regarding the remittance of payments received from a Guest by RVwithME on behalf of a Host, which instead shall be subject to the limitations described in the section below entitled “Limitation of Liability”.
Bookings and Financial Terms
Bookings and Financial Terms for Hosts
If you are a Host and a booking is requested for your Accommodation via the Site, Application and Services, you will be required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is requested (as determined by RVwithME in its sole discretion) or the booking request may be automatically cancelled. When a booking is requested via the Site, Application and Services, we will share with you (i) the first and last name of the Guest who has requested the booking, (ii) a link to the Guest’s RVwithME Account profile page, (iii) the names of any members of an SNS with whom you are “friends” or associated on the SNS if such individuals are also “friends” or associated with the Guest on such SNS, and (iv) an indication that the name that the Guest provided to RVwithME when the Guest became a Member matches the name that the Guest provided to the SNSs to which the Guest has linked his or her RVwithME Account, so that you can view such information before confirming or rejecting the booking. If you are unable to confirm or decide to reject a booking of an Accommodation within such 24 hour period, any amounts collected by RVwithME for the requested booking will be refunded to the applicable Guest’s credit card and any pre-authorization of such credit card will be released. When you confirm a booking requested by a Guest, RVwithME will send you an email, text message or message via the Application confirming such booking, depending on the selections you make via the Site, Application and Services.
The fees displayed in each Listing are comprised of the Accommodation Fees (defined below) and the Guest Fees (defined below.) Where applicable, Taxes may be charged in addition to the Accommodation Fees and Guest Fees. The Accommodation Fees, the Guest Fees and applicable Taxes are collectively referred to in these Terms as the “Total Fees”. The amounts due and payable by a Guest solely relating to a Host’s Accommodation are the “Accommodation Fees”. Please note that it is the Host and not RVwithME which determines the Accommodation Fees. The Accommodation Fee may include a cleaning fee, at the Host’s discretion.
RVwithME may charge a reservation fee to Guests based upon a percentage of applicable Accommodation Fees which are the “Guest Fees” or a flat fee. RVwithME may collect the Fee at the time of booking confirmation (i.e. when the Host confirms the booking within 24 hours of the booking request) and will initiate payment of the reservation Fees.
Appointment of RVwithME as Payment Agent for Host
Host will make the Accommodation available to Guest in the agreed upon manner as if the Host has received the Accommodation Fees. Each Host agrees that, RVwithME may, in accordance with the cancellation policy selected by the Host and reflected in the relevant Listing, (i) permit the Guest to cancel the booking and (ii) Hosts refund to the Guest that portion of the Accommodation Fees specified in the applicable cancellation policy. In accepting appointment as the limited authorized agent of the Host, RVwithME assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Host.
Please note that RVwithME does not currently charge fees for the creation of Listings. However, you acknowledge and agree that RVwithME reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge you for and collect fees from you for the creation of Listings. Please note that RVwithME will provide notice of any Listing fee collection via the Site, Application and Services, prior to implementing such a Listing fee feature.
Bookings and Financial Terms for Guests
The Hosts, not RVwithME, are solely responsible for honoring any confirmed bookings and making available any Accommodations reserved through the Site, Application and Services. If you, as a Guest, choose to enter into a transaction with a Host for the booking of an Accommodation, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Host and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such Accommodation imposed by the Host. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not RVwithME, will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that RVwithME is not a party to such agreements, and that, RVwithME disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements. You acknowledge and agree that, notwithstanding the fact that RVwithME is not a party to the agreement between you and the Host, RVwithME may or may not acts as the Host’s payment agent for the limited purpose of accepting payments from you on behalf of the Host. Your agreed payment of amounts which are due to the Host, if not collected by RVwithME will be collected by the Host at the time of arrival. In the event that the Guest does not remit any such amounts to a Host, such Host will have recourse only against the Guest.
Listings for Accommodations will specify the Total Fees. As noted above, the Host is required to either confirm or reject the booking within 24 hours of when the booking is requested (as determined by RVwithME in its sole discretion) or the requested booking will be automatically cancelled. If a requested booking is cancelled (i.e. not confirmed by the applicable Host), any amounts collected by RVwithME will be refunded to such Guest, depending on the selections the Guest makes via the Site and Application, and any pre-authorization of such Guest’s credit card will be released, if applicable.
You agree to pay Host for the Total Fees for any booking requested upon arrival taxes may be extra. RVwithME may charge a reservation fee at the time of making the booking. In order to establish a booking pending the applicable Host’s confirmation of your requested booking, you understand and agree that RVwithME, on behalf of the Host, reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to (i) obtain a pre-authorization via your credit card for the Total Fees or (ii) charge your credit card a nominal amount, not to exceed one dollar ($1), or a similar sum in the currency in which you are transacting ( e.g. one euro or one British pound) to verify your credit card. Once RVwithME receives confirmation of your booking from the applicable Host, RVwithME may collect the Total Fees in accordance with the terms and conditions of these Terms and the pricing terms set forth in the applicable Listing. Please note that RVwithME cannot control any fees that may be charged to a Guest by his or her bank related to RVwithME’s collection of the Total Fees, and RVwithME disclaims all liability in this regard.
In connection with your requested booking, you may be asked to provide customary billing information such as name, billing address and credit card information either to RVwithME or its third party payment processor. You agree to pay RVwithME for any confirmed bookings made in connection with your RVwithME Account in accordance with these Terms by one of the methods described on the Site or Application – e.g. by PayPal or credit card. You hereby authorize the collection of such amounts by charging the credit card provided as part of requesting the booking, either directly by RVwithME or indirectly, via a third party online payment processor or by one of the payment methods described on the Site or Application. You also authorize RVwithME to charge your credit card in the event of damage caused at an Accommodation as contemplated under “Damage to Accommodations” below and for Security Deposits, if applicable. If you are directed to RVwithME’s third party payment processor, you may be subject to terms and conditions governing use of that third party’s service and that third party’s personal information collection practices. Please review such terms and conditions and privacy policy before using the services. Once your confirmed booking transaction is complete you will receive a confirmation email summarizing your confirmed booking.
Security Deposits
Hosts may choose to include security deposits in their Listings (“Security Deposits”). Each Listing will describe whether a Security Deposit is required for the applicable Accommodation. If a Security Deposit is included in a Listing for a confirmed booking of Accommodation, the Host may collect the fee upon the Guests arrival or RVwithME may, in its capacity as the payment agent of the Host, use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a pre-authorization of the Guest’s credit card in the amount the Host determines for the Security Deposit within a reasonable time prior to the Guest’s check-in at the applicable Host’s Accommodation. RVwithME will also use its commercially reasonable efforts to address Hosts’ requests and claims related to Security Deposits, but RVwithME is not responsible for administering or accepting any claims by Hosts related to Security Deposits, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard.
Service Fees
In consideration for providing the Services, RVwithME may collect service fees from Hosts and Guests (“Service Fees”). Service Fees are made up of two (2) components: (i) Guest Fees and (ii) a fee that is charged to the Host based upon a percentage of the amount of the Accommodation Fees (“Host Fees”). Where applicable, Taxes may also be charged in addition to the Host Fees. Host Fees are deducted from the Accommodation Fees before remitting the Accommodation Fees to the Host, within 24 hours of when the Guest arrives at the applicable Accommodation. Guest Fees are, as noted above, included in the Total Fees.
Balances will be remitted by RVwithME to Hosts via PayPal, unless other transaction methods are arranged between RVwithME and Hosts, including cheque/check, money order, direct bank deposit or other payment methods described on the Site or via the Application, in the Host’s currency of choice, depending upon the selections the Host makes via the Site, Application and Services. Please note that for any payments by RVwithME in currencies other than Canadian dollars, RVwithME may deduct foreign currency processing costs from such payments. Except as otherwise provided herein, Service Fees are non-refundable.
General Booking and Financial Terms
Cancellations and Refunds
If, as a Guest, you cancel your requested booking before the requested booking is confirmed by a Host, RVwithME will cancel any pre-authorization to your credit card and/or refund any nominal amounts charged to your credit card in connection with the requested booking within a commercially reasonable time. If, as a Guest, you wish to cancel a confirmed booking made via the Site, Application and Services, either prior to or after arriving at the Accommodation, the cancellation policy of the Host contained in the applicable Listing will apply to such cancellation. Our ability to refund the Accommodation Fees and other amounts charged to you will depend upon the terms of the applicable cancellation policy. Details regarding refunds and cancellation policies are available via the Site and Application.
If a Host cancels a confirmed booking made via the Site, Services, and Application, (i) RVwithME will refund the Total Fees for such booking to the applicable Guest within a commercially reasonable time of the cancellation and (ii) the Guest will receive an email or other communication from RVwithME containing alternative Listings and other related information. If the Guest requests a booking from one of the alternative Listings and the Host associated with such alternative Listing confirms the Guest’s requested booking, then the Guest agrees to pay RVwithME the Total Fees relating to the confirmed booking for the Accommodation in the alternative Listing, in accordance with these Terms. If a Host cancelled a confirmed booking and you, as a Guest, have not received an email or other communication from RVwithME, please contact RVwithME at http://www.rvwithme.com/contactus.
Recurring Payments
In some instances, Guests may be required to make recurring, incremental payments toward the Total Fees owed for a confirmed booking before beginning his or her stay at the applicable Accommodation (collectively, “Recurring Payments”). More information on Recurring Payments will be made available via the Site, Application and Services, if applicable. If Recurring Payments apply to your payment obligations for Total Fees owed for a confirmed booking, you authorize RVwithME, on behalf of the Host, to collect the Total Fees in the increments and at the frequency associated with the applicable Recurring Payments, identified on the Site, Application and Services
Donations
Some Hosts may pledge to donate a portion of the funds they receive from confirmed bookings made via the Site, Application and Services to a particular cause or charity. We do not control, and will not take any responsibility or liability for, whether the Host does in fact make the donation he or she pledged to make.
Taxes
You understand and agree that you are solely responsible for determining your applicable Tax reporting requirements in consultation with your tax advisors. RVwithME cannot and does not offer Tax-related advice to any Members of the Site, Application and Services.
Additionally, please note that each Host is responsible for determining local indirect Taxes and for including any applicable Taxes to be collected or obligations relating to applicable Taxes in Listings. Where applicable, or based upon request from a Host, RVwithME may issue a valid VAT invoice to such Host.
Foreign Currency
As part of the Services, RVwithME provides a feature through which Members may view Total Fees for various Listings in foreign currencies. You understand and agree that these views of Total Fees are for informational purposes only and are not the official Total Fees for the Listings. If you (as a Guest) request a booking, you will be notified of the currency in which you will be charged together with the corresponding amount of Total Fees, if your booking is confirmed by a Host. The currency in which you will be charged will be determined by RVwithME based on the payment method you select and the location of the Accommodation in the Listing you are booking. If the currency in which you will be charged is different from the currency chosen by the Host to receive payment, RVwithME will be responsible for the required currency conversion processing, including the costs thereof, which will be calculated based on the most current applicable foreign exchange rate that RVwithME has uploaded to the Site as of the date and time that your booking is confirmed (the “Applicable Exchange Rate”). You acknowledge that the Applicable Exchange Rate used for currency conversion processing may not be identical to the applicable market rate in effect at the specific time such processing occurs because: (i) although RVwithME updates the Applicable Exchange Rate on a regular basis, it does not update such rate on a real-time basis; and (ii) the Applicable Exchange Rate may include an incremental cost or margin that is not included in the applicable market rate. For the avoidance of doubt, RVwithME will retain any profits (and will bear any losses) that result from such currency conversion processing due to changes in the applicable foreign exchange rate between the date your booking is confirmed and the date RVwithME makes payment to a Host.
Damage to Accommodations
As a Guest, you are responsible for leaving the Accommodation in the condition it was in when you arrived. You acknowledge and agree that, as a Guest, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who you invite to, or otherwise provide access to, the Accommodation. In the event that a Host claims otherwise and provides evidence of damage, including but not limited to, photographs, you agree to pay the cost of replacing the damaged items with equivalent items. After being notified of the claim and given forty eight (48) hours to respond, the payment will be charged to and taken from the credit card on file in your RVwithME Account. RVwithME also reserves the right to charge the credit card on file in your RVwithME Account, or otherwise collect payment from you and pursue any avenues available to RVwithME in this regard, including using Security Deposits, in situations in which you have been determined, in RVwithME’s sole discretion, to have damaged any Accommodation, including, but not limited to, in relation to any payment requests made by Hosts under the RVwithME Host Guarantee, and in relation to any payments made by RVwithME to Hosts. If we are unable to charge the credit card on file or otherwise collect payment from you, you agree to remit payment for any damage to the Accommodation to the applicable Host or to RVwithME (if applicable).
Both Guests and Hosts agree to cooperate with and assist RVwithME in good faith, and to provide RVwithME with such information and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by RVwithME, in connection with any complaints or claims made by Members relating to Accommodations or any personal or other property located at an Accommodation (including, without limitation, payment requests made under the RVwithME Host Guarantee) or with respect to any investigation undertaken by RVwithME or a representative of RVwithME regarding use or abuse of the Site, Application or the Services. If you are a Guest, upon RVwithME’s reasonable request, and to the extent you are reasonably able to do so, you agree to participate in mediation or similar resolution process with a Host, at no cost to you, which process will be conducted by RVwithME or a third party selected by RVwithME, with respect to losses for which the Host is requesting payment from RVwithME under the RVwithME Host Guarantee.
If you are a Guest, you understand and agree that RVwithME reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to make a claim under your homeowner’s, renter’s or other insurance policy related to any damage or loss that you may have caused or been responsible for to an Accommodation or any personal or other property located at an Accommodation (including amounts paid by RVwithME under the RVwithME Host Guarantee.) You agree to cooperate with and assist RVwithME in good faith, and to provide RVwithME with such information as may be reasonably requested by RVwithME in order to make a claim under your homeowner’s, renter’s or other insurance policy, including, but not limited to, executing documents and taking such further acts as RVwithME may reasonably request to assist RVwithME in accomplishing the foregoing.

Controlling Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Province of Alberta, and Canada, without regard to its conflict-of-law provisions. You and we agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a provincial court located in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada for any actions for which the parties retain 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, as set forth in the Dispute Resolution provision below.
Dispute Resolution
You and RVwithME agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, or to the use of the Services or use of the Site or Application (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. You acknowledge and agree that you and RVwithME are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and RVwithME otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of these Terms.
Uploaded content
By uploading any User Content you hereby grant and will grant RVwithME and its affiliated companies a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty free, fully paid up, transferable, sublicensable, perpetual, irrevocable license to copy, display, upload, perform, distribute, store, modify and otherwise use your User Content in connection with the operation of the Site or the promotion, advertising or marketing thereof, in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed.

By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and RVwithME in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).
General
The failure of RVwithME to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of RVwithME. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
