Various company, product, and service names displayed on the Services may be trademarks or service marks owned by others (the “Third-Party Trademarks”). Your use of the Services should not be construed as granting, by implication, estoppel, or otherwise, any license or right to use any Third-Party Trademark displayed on this Services.

5. TERMINATION
Unless otherwise prohibited by law, and without prejudice to Maven’s other rights or remedies, Maven shall have the right to immediately terminate (i) your Membership if you breach any of the terms of this Agreement and (ii) any of the Services, in our sole discretion at any time; provided that if you are not in breach of this Agreement, we will provide you with a pro rata refund of any Membership Fee paid by you in advance reflecting the period where you did not benefit from the terminated Services as a result of such termination.
You must maintain an active Membership to continue using the Services. This Agreement and your Membership may be renewed for additional Membership periods pursuant to the Membership purchased. If you do not maintain an active Membership and pay all Membership Fees when due, this Agreement shall terminate.
If you have obtained a free Membership, Maven reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, such free Membership, your Account and your access to the Services with or without notice. Unless modified or discontinued by Maven in its sole discretion, your free Membership shall continue until the end of the applicable free Membership period, or until you cancel or upgrade to a paid Membership.
Unless otherwise stated, all Membership Fees are non-refundable, even if you stop using the Services. Your Membership will begin once you connect your Pet Health Tracker, or twenty (20) days after shipment of your Tracker, whichever is soonest. In the case of a monthly Membership, you authorize Maven to charge your credit card after each one (1) month pre-paid period ends and, subject to our Return Policy and limited product warranty below, you may only cancel your monthly Membership after your initial commitment period of six (6) months or twelve (12) months, as applicable, ends. In the case of six (6), twelve (12), eighteen (18), and twenty-four (24) month Memberships, the initial non-refundable (subject to the terms found in our Return Policy and limited product warranty below) Membership Fee covers the first six (6), twelve (12), eighteen (18), or twenty-four (24) months of your Membership (“Initial Membership Fee”), respectively. The Initial Membership Fee also covers the cost of your Tracker, and you will retain ownership of your Tracker after you stop or cancel your Membership and after payment of the Initial Membership Fee.
If any Membership Fees that are due are outstanding for a period of three (3) days or more, your Account will go into an inactive state. In this inactive state, you will be unable to upload data from your Tracker. You will, however, still be able to access any historical data, that is, data which is uploaded prior to your Account entering into an inactive state. Upon appropriate payment, your Account will be reactivated, and you will be able to utilize the full functionality of the Membership and your Tracker.
Upon cancellation or termination, all licenses granted to you hereunder shall terminate automatically, your right to use the Services shall cease and your User Content, as defined below, will no longer be available to you through the Services. You will however have a 7-day grace period, from the moment your subscription is canceled, to access the chat via the app.
6. SUPPORT
You shall receive the support and maintenance, if any, as set forth in Mavens’s FAQs or as provided with your Subscription.
7. USER CONTENT
The Services may include functionality to permit the submission of your Content, whether manually at the direction of users of the Services or automatically in accordance with your Account settings (“User Content”) and the hosting, sharing, and/or publishing of such User Content. You warrant and represent that all User Content provided by you is accurate, complete, up-to-date, and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. User Content includes, without limitation, any user profile information you submit and make publicly available, any information collected by the Pet Health Tracker. You understand that Maven does not guarantee any confidentiality with respect to User Content that you submit and make available to others.
You shall be solely responsible for User Content you submit or allow to be collected and the consequences of our posting or publishing such User Content. In connection with any User Content you submit, you affirm, represent, and/or warrant that: (i) you own or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to use and authorize us to use all patent, trademark, trade secret, copyright or other proprietary rights in and to any and all User Content to enable inclusion and use of the User Content in the manner contemplated by the Services and this Agreement; and (ii) you have the express specific, informed and unambiguous consent, release, and/or permission of each and every identifiable individual person in the User Content to use the name or likeness of each and every such identifiable individual person to enable inclusion and use of the User Content in the manner contemplated by the Services and this Agreement. By submitting the User Content to us, you hereby grant us a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sub-licensable and transferable license to edit, modify, truncate, aggregate, use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, modify, display, perform, publish and otherwise commercially exploit all or any portion of the User Content in connection with our provision of the Services and our (and our successors’) business, including without limitation for promoting and redistributing part or all of the Services (and derivative works thereof) in any media formats and through any media channels and sharing the User Content with social media platforms (i.e., posting User Content to Twitter or Facebook if enabled in your Account’s sharing settings) with our business partners and licensees for informational and analytical purposes.
If your use of the Services is on behalf of or managed by a coach, team, organizing body or other entity you are affiliated with (“Managing Entity”), your User Content may also be shared with that team or other organization as more fully described in our Privacy Policy. You consent to that sharing and acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for any use or disclosure of your information by that Managing Entity. You also hereby grant each user of the Services a non-exclusive license to access your User Content through the Services, if you have permitted such access through your Account settings, and to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, publish and perform such User Content as permitted through the functionality of the Services and under this Agreement. We may maintain copies of any User Content for purposes of backup, security, or maintenance, or as required by law.
In connection with User Content, you further agree that you will not: (i) submit material that is copyrighted, protected by trade secret or otherwise subject to third party proprietary rights, including privacy and publicity rights, unless you are the owner of such rights or have permission from their rightful owner to post the material and to grant us all of the license rights granted herein; (ii) publish falsehoods or misrepresentations that could damage us or any third party; (iii) submit material that is unlawful, obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, pornographic, harassing, hateful, racially or ethnically offensive, or encourages conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, violate any law, or is otherwise inappropriate; (iv) post advertisements or solicitations of business; or (v) impersonate another person. We do not endorse any User Content or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed therein, and we expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with any User Content. We do not permit copyright infringing activities and infringement of intellectual property rights in connection with the Services, and we will remove all Content and User Content if properly notified that such Content or User Content infringes on another’s intellectual property rights. We may remove any Content and User Content without prior notice. We may also terminate your access to the Services, if you are determined to be a repeat infringer. A repeat infringer is anyone who has been notified of infringing activity more than once and/or has had any User Content removed from the Services more than twice. We also reserve the right to decide whether Content or User Content is appropriate and complies with this Agreement for violations other than copyright infringement and violations of intellectual property law, such as, but not limited to, pornography, obscene or defamatory material, or excessive length. We may remove such User Content and/or terminate your access for uploading such material in violation of this Agreement at any time, without prior notice and at our sole discretion.
By submitting content, you grant us the right to use, store, and analyze it in accordance with these terms. We may use anonymized and aggregated user data, independent of the time of its collection, for research, product improvement, and internal analysis. Such data will always be stripped of personal identifiers and adhere to privacy standards.
8. PAYMENT OF FEES
- a. You agree to pay (i) the Membership Fees as described in this Agreement and during the purchase and payment process; and (ii) the non-refundable Initial Membership Fee (as described above). Any payment terms presented to you in the process of obtaining your Membership are deemed part of this Agreement and are incorporated herein by reference.
- Billing. We may collect payments from you directly or we may use a third-party payment processor ( “Payment Processor”) to bill you through a payment account linked to your Account on the Services (your “Billing Account”) for your Membership. The processing of payments by a Payment Processor will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of such Payment Processor in addition to this Agreement. We are not responsible for any errors by a Payment Processor. By choosing to purchase a Membership, you agree to pay us, either directly or through a Payment Processor, all Membership Fees and other charges at the prices then in effect and in accordance with the applicable payment terms and you authorize us, through a Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using your selected Payment Method. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that we or a Payment Processor make even if we or a Payment Processor have already requested or received payment.
- Payment Method.The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If we, through a Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand.
- Recurring Billing.The Membership payment terms may consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such Membership Fees have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation. WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY, ANNUALLY, OR EVERY TWELVE MONTHS, DEPENDING ON YOUR SUBSCRIPTION) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU, UNTIL YOU PROVIDE NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO ACCOUNT SETTINGS AT [insert link]
- Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE AT ACCOUNT SETTINGS AT [insert link]. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY SUBSCRIPTION FEES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR SUBSCRIPTION AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
- Auto-Renewal. The Membership will be automatically extended for successive monthly renewal periods in the event you have purchased a monthly Membership or successive twelve (12) month periods in the event you have purchased a twelve (12) or twenty-four (24) month Membership at the then-current non-promotional rate. In the case of a twelve (12) or twenty-four (24) month Membership we will notify you by email at least thirty (30) days prior to such automatic extension taking effect. To change or terminate your Membership, go to Account settings at [insert link]. If you terminate your Membership, you may continue to use your Membership until the end of your then-current term and your Membership will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you won’t be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the Membership Fee paid for the then-current subscription period. If you do not want to continue to be charged on a recurring basis, you must cancel or terminate your Membership before the end of the then-current term. Your Membership cannot be terminated before the end of the period for which you have already paid, and except as expressly provided in these terms, Maven will not refund any amounts that you have already paid.
- Reaffirmation of Authorization. Your non-termination or continued use of your Subscription reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Subscription. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance or as otherwise described when you initially selected to purchase the Subscription.
9. INDEMNITY
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us and our subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, agents, suppliers, employees, partners and licensors harmless from and against any claims, actions or demands, including, without limitation, reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising or resulting from (i) your User Content, (ii) your breach of this Agreement, (iii) your uploading of, access to, connection to, or use or misuse of the Content or the Services, or (iv) your violation of law.

11. SERVICE WARRANTIES

Therefore, reliance on any information provided by our services is at your own risk.
MAVEN PET INC. is not liable for any damages or losses related to any advice procured through the website, application, products, or services.

Communications with veterinary professionals through the services are not confidential, and no client-professional relationship shall be formed between you and us as a result of using the services. Any advice provided by veterinary professionals through the services is for decision support purposes only and not a substitute for an in-person evaluation of your pet by a veterinary doctor.
MAVEN PET INC. does not practice veterinary medicine or interfere with the practice of veterinary medicine by Veterinary Professionals, who are responsible for their services and compliance with requirements applicable to their profession and license. If you believe your pet is experiencing a medical emergency, seek appropriate emergency veterinary medical care immediately.
Neither MAVEN PET INC. nor any of its affiliates shall be liable for any damages caused by the advice you or your pet obtain from the Veterinary Professionals or chatbot, or the decisions you make after using these features. You assume all risks arising from your use of the services.
The services and content are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quiet enjoyment, and non-infringement.

12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
IN NO EVENT SHALL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS, OR DAMAGES RESULTING FROM LOST DATA OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION) RESULTING FROM THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE WHOOP STRAP, THE BATTERY PACK, THE SERVICES AND/OR THE CONTENT, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, IN EXCESS OF ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS, EVEN IF A WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Some states do not allow exclusion of implied warranties or limitation of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you. IN SUCH STATES, OUR LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
IF YOU ARE A USER FROM NEW JERSEY, SECTION 10 (DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY) AND SECTION 11 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY) ARE INTENDED TO BE ONLY AS BROAD AS IS PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY.

Except as otherwise required by applicable law, the Terms and the resolution of any Disputes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, and as applicable, those of the United States of America, without regard to its conflict of laws principles.
(b) Informal Dispute Resolution. We want to address your concerns without needing a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against Maven, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting hi@maven.pet. We will try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting you through email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days after your initial submission of the claim, you or Maven may bring a formal proceeding.
(c) Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Maven agree to resolve any Disputes through final and binding arbitration, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate below.
(d) Opt-Out of Agreement to Arbitrate. You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting hi@maven.pet within 30 days of first accepting these Terms of Service and stating that you (include your first and last name) decline this arbitration agreement.
(e) Arbitration Procedures. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, or any other location we agree to.
(f) Arbitration Fees. The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Maven will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.
(g) Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Either you or Maven may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in New Castle County, Delaware or any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring legal action before any court, tribunal, or governmental agency solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Maven Products or services, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
(h) No Class Actions. You may only resolve Disputes with Maven on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed under our agreement.
(i) Judicial Forum for Disputes. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and Maven agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of New Castle, Delaware. Both you and Maven consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.
(j) Limitation on Claims. Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of the Maven Products or services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be barred forever.
- General provisions
The parties disclaim application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
You may not assign or transfer these Terms, or any order accepted by Maven hereunder, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without Maven’s express prior written consent. Any attempt to do so, without Maven’s consent, will be null and of no effect. Maven may freely assign these Terms.
Maven will not be responsible for any failure or delay in its performance under these Terms due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, labor disputes, strikes, lockouts, shortages of or inability to obtain energy, raw materials or supplies, war, terrorism, riot, or acts of God.
The failure by Maven to enforce any provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that or any other provision. If for any reason 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.
These Terms constitute the complete and exclusive agreement between Maven and you regarding its subject matter and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous quotations, agreements, communications, or understandings, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter. Any waiver, modification or amendment of any provision of these Terms will be effective only if in writing and approved by Maven. Maven reserves the right to amend these Terms without prior notice.
You will not export or re-export, directly or indirectly, the Products, or any technical information related thereto, or any direct products thereof, to any destination or person prohibited or restricted by the export control laws and regulations of the United States, without the prior authorization from the appropriate governmental authorities.
All notices required or permitted to be given under these Terms will be in writing and will be deemed given: (a) upon actual delivery, if made by personal service; (b) three (3) days after mailing, if made by U.S. certified or registered mail; and (c) one (1) business day after delivery to the courier or overnight delivery service, if made by courier or overnight delivery service.
