software we may provide (each, an “App”) is subject to an End User License Agreement. The
applicable End User License Agreement depends on your the platform on which the App is
designed to run and the features of the App. The End User License Agreement will be

- User Rewards.
-
User Rewards Generally. Klip’em makes available through the Service offers on certain
third-party products and services (each an "Offer"). When you submit an Offer through the
Service, Klip'em, at its sole discretion, will determine whether you have met all terms and
conditions of the offer, making you eligible to accumulate rewards in your Klip’em account
(“Rewards”). Each Offer may be subject to Additional Terms and may be discontinued by
Klip’em at any time. At any time and in Klip’em’s sole discretion, Klip’em may: (i)
determine whether or not you are eligible to redeem an Offer; (ii) determine whether or not
you have earned Rewards; or (iii) adjust your
Rewards total. PRIOR TO DISTRIBUTION, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 5(b), ALL REWARDS SHALL REMAIN
THE SOLE PROPERTY OF KLIP’EM.
-
Distributions. When you have accumulated the required minimum amounts in Rewards in
your Klip’em account (as posted), you may elect to have Klip’em distribute your Rewards via
PayPal, gift cards, or other means of distribution that Klip’em may make available through
the functionality of the Service. If you elect to close your Klip’em account and you have
ten dollars ($10.00) or more in undistributed Rewards, you will be expected to distribute
such Rewards prior to closing your account. If your account is terminated by Klip’em, if you
fail to properly distribute your Rewards when closing your account, or if at the time of
closing you have less than ten dollars ($10.00) in Rewards in your account, any rights you
have to the Rewards in your account will terminate and you will no longer be eligible to
receive a distribution of such Rewards.
-
Referral Bonuses. From time to time, Klip’em may introduce special bonuses or
incentives for users to refer others to Klip’em, using a personal referral code or URL.
Users shall not be eligible to earn these bonuses if they invite other users who share the
same mobile device or if they create multiple accounts in an effort to earn referral bonuses
for inviting themselves. Such actions violate these Terms of Use and shall be grounds for
Klip’em to terminate a User’s account, rescind any referral bonuses, reverse or correct user
Rewards balances, or take other actions as appropriate. Where a user cannot produce examples
of how referrals have taken place, including screenshots of where referrals were made,
Klip’em reserves the right to decline to award Referral Bonuses, rescind bonuses, demand
repayment of Rewards credited, or take other remedial actions.
-
Taxes. Depending on applicable federal, state, and local tax laws, your distribution
of Rewards may be subject to taxes. You will be solely responsible for any and all tax
liability arising out of your receipt of Rewards.
-
Inactivity Fee. It is your responsibility to keep your Klip’em account active. If you
fail to activate an offer within your Klip’em account for twelve (12) consecutive months,
your Klip’em account will be considered "inactive." While your account is inactive, Klip’em
will deduct an amount equal to three dollars and 99 cents ($3.99 USD) from your accumulated
Rewards every month prior to reactivation ("Inactivity Fee"). Klip’em will attempt to notify
you before your account becomes inactive by sending you an email to the address we have on
file for you. Subject to Klip’em’s right to terminate your account under these Terms, you
may reactivate your Klip’em account by logging in to your Klip’em account and activating at
least one offer. If your state’s law prohibits Klip’em from charging the Inactivity Fee,
Klip’em may deduct an Inactivity Fee equal to the maximum permitted by the laws of your
state.
-
Compliance with Law. Under state escheatment law, or other applicable law, Klip’em
may be required to remit Rewards in your Klip’em account to the state of your last known
address if your Klip’em account has not had any activity for certain period of time. Your
last known address will be determined by Klip’em based on the zip code that you provided
when creating your Klip’em account. If we remit funds as required by law, you will need to
contact the state directly to obtain the funds.
-
Claims. Rewards provided under this Section 5 are provided solely by Klip’em and not
underwritten, sponsored, or provided by any other third-party, including Klip’em's brand and
merchant partners. By accepting these Terms of Use you agree to not to seek Rewards or make
any claims for Rewards against third-party providers, merchants or manufacturers of products
and services.

Content from a variety of sources and acknowledge that User Content may be inaccurate,

LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN
KLIP’EM AND YOU. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY IN CERTAIN
CIRCUMSTANCES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
-
Dispute Resolution and Arbitration.
-
Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Klip’em in the most
expedient and cost effective manner, you and Klip’em agree that any and all disputes arising
in connection with these Terms of the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration.
Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator
instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be
subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief
that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes, but is not limited to
all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in
contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, and regardless
of whether the claims arise during or after the termination of these Terms. You understand
and agree that, by entering into these Terms, you and Klip’em are each waiving the right to
a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.
-
Exceptions. Notwithstanding subsection 15(a), we both agree that nothing herein shall
be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our right to (i) bring an
individual action in small claims court, (ii) pursue enforcement actions through applicable
federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available, (iii) seek injunctive
relief in a court of law, or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual
property infringement claims.
-
Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Klip’em will be governed by the
Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer
Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association
("AAA"), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and
filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or
by contacting Klip’em.
-
Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written
notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail, Federal Express (signature required),
or in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for you, we may send notice
to you by electronic mail ("Notice"). Klip’em's address for Notice is: 1000 Marsh Rd, Menlo
Park, California 94025. The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or
dispute; and (i) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). We agree to use good faith
efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within
120 days after the Notice is received, you or Klip’em may commence an arbitration
proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or
Klip’em shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final
decision and award, if any; provided that if our dispute is finally resolved through
arbitration in your favor, Klip’em shall pay you the greater of (i\x) the amount awarded by
the arbitrator, if any, and (y) the greatest amount offered by Klip’em in settlement of the
dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award.
-
Fees. In the event that you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms,
Klip’em will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for
greater than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees shall be decided by the AAA
Rules. Any arbitration hearings will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Menlo
Park, California, provided that if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether
the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the
arbitrator, through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as
established by the AAA Rules. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your
claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as
measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the
payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse
Klip’em for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay
under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the
arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential
findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator
may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or
expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14
days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
-
No class actions. YOU AND KLIP’EM AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER
ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY
PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Klip’em agree
otherwise, 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.
-
Modifications. In the event that Klip’em makes any future change to this arbitration
provision (other than a change to the Klip’em's address for Notice), you may reject any such
change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Klip’em's address for
Notice, in which case your account with Klip’em shall be immediately terminated and this
arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject shall
survive.
-
Enforceability. If only Subsection 15(f) is found to be unenforceable or the entirety
of this Section 15 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 15 shall
be null and void and, in such case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and
venue described in Section 16 shall govern any action arising out of or related to these
Terms.
-
Governing Law; Venue. These Terms, whether interpreted in a court of law or in arbitration,
shall be governed by the laws of the State of California as they apply to agreements entered into
and to be performed entirely within California by California residents, and without regard to
conflict of law principles. To the extent that any lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted
hereunder, you and Klip’em agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state
courts and federal courts located within the Menlo Park, California for the purpose of litigating
all such claims or disputes. We operate the Service from our offices in California, and we make no
representations that information and materials included in the Service are appropriate or available
for use in other locations. Access to the Service from any territory where the content is illegal is
prohibited.

The following provisions apply to users and non-users who interact with Klip’em outside the United
States:
-

-
General. The Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly
incorporated by reference herein, constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement
between you and Klip’em regarding your use of and access to the Service, and except as expressly
permitted above may only be amended by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of
the parties. You may not assign or transfer the Terms or your rights hereunder, in whole or in part,
by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign the Terms at any
time without notice. The failure to require performance of any provision shall not affect our right
to require performance at any time thereafter, nor shall a waiver of any breach or default of the
Terms constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself.
Use of paragraph headers in the Terms is for convenience only and shall not have any impact on the
interpretation of particular provisions. In the event that any part of the Terms is held to be
invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part shall be given effect to the greatest extent
possible and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect. Upon termination of the
Terms, any provision which, by its nature or express terms should survive, will survive such
termination or expiration, including, but not limited to, Section 5 with respect to the closing or
termination of Klip’em accounts and Sections 6 through 17.
