Float Terms of Service

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) apply to the products and services of Plantake.com, Inc. and our subsidiaries and affiliates (“Plantake,” “we,” or “us”), including our websites, social media pages, software applications, and other online services (collectively, the “Services”).

1. Agreement to Terms
Please read these Terms carefully. By accessing or using the Services, you acknowledge that you have read these Terms, that these Terms govern your use of the Services, and that you agree to them. By agreeing to these Terms, you and Float will, as described in section 16 below, be required to resolve most disputes with each other solely on an individual basis through arbitration where permitted by applicable law and not with a jury trial or as a class arbitration, class action, or any other kind of representative or court proceeding. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms, please do not use the Services.

2. Additional Terms
We may also have different or additional terms in relation to some of the Services. Unless we say otherwise in those terms, those terms supplement and are part of these Terms and will control to the extent there is a conflict with these Terms. Additional terms that apply to some aspects of the Services include.

3. Service Use Eligibility: You must be 13 years or older to use the Services. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may only use the Services if your parent or guardian agrees to our Terms. Please read these Terms with them. If you are a parent or legal guardian of a user under the age of majority where you live, you are subject to these Terms and responsible for your child’s activity on the Services.

To use many of the Services, you must login with Google account. You are responsible for all activities that occur in connection with your account to the extent permitted by applicable law.

4. Subscriptions and Promotional Offers
This section provides terms related to the Services that are only available with a paid subscription (“Float PLUS”).

a.Recurring Subscriptions: If you purchase a recurring subscription to use Float PLUS (“Recurring Subscriptions”), the subscription will be continuous for the subscription period you select and will automatically renew for another subscription period until canceled. You authorize Float to automatically charge your designated payment method at the beginning of each subscription period for the then-current price of your Recurring Subscription, along with any applicable taxes and fees specified, unless canceled in accordance with section 4(c). If we are not able to charge your payment method for your Recurring Subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts.

b.Family Plans: You may also purchase a Recurring Subscription as part of a family plan for access to Float PLUS for you and up to 5 other accounts. A parent or legal guardian must be the primary account holder for any person under 18 years of age that is invited to join a family plan and is responsible for those users’ activities on the Services.

c.Cancellation: You must cancel your Recurring Subscription at least 24 hours before the end of your current subscription period to avoid being charged for the next subscription period. If you purchased your Recurring Subscription through a third-party, like an app store, you must cancel the renewal directly with that third-party. Only the primary account holder of a family plan may cancel a family plan subscription. View our support page or contact us by email at contact.plantake@gmail.com if you need assistance with canceling a Recurring Subscription. If you cancel, you are not entitled to a refund for the fees you already paid, but, subject to these Terms, you will continue to receive access to Float PLUS until the end of your current subscription period.

d.Changes: We may make changes to your Recurring Subscription, including price changes. We will communicate material changes to your Recurring Subscription, including any changes to the price, in advance to the email address associated with your account. If you do not agree to those changes, you can cancel your subscription as described in section 4(c).

e.Promotional Offers: Converting to Recurring Subscriptions. You may be offered a promotional offer in connection with a Recurring Subscription, such as a trial period or initial discount (each a “Promotional Offer”). Additional terms specific to each Promotional Offer we offer will be as described in the particular offer (“Offer Terms”). You must meet all eligibility requirements stated in these Terms and the Offer Terms to enroll in a Promotional Offer. Unless stated otherwise in the Offer Terms, Promotional Offers are only for new customers who have not previously subscribed to Float PLUS or enrolled in a Promotional Offer. If the Offer Terms state that an offer is available only to past subscribers, you must have been a subscriber to Float PLUS and allowed your subscription to expire before the date stated in the Offer Terms. Float reserves the right, in its discretion, to determine your Promotional Offer eligibility, and to modify or cancel a Promotional Offer at any time. Promotional Offers may only be claimed through float.com by any advertised expiration date.

f.Lifetime Subscriptions: You may purchase a “lifetime” Float PLUS subscription for one account to access Float PLUS for the remaining lifetime of Float PLUS, which may not necessarily be the remainder of your lifetime. The Services may evolve over time and the Float PLUS features available when you enroll in a lifetime subscription may not always be part of Float PLUS. Float may also launch new Services in the future that are not part of Float PLUS and therefore outside of your lifetime subscription. Any lifetime subscription you purchase is personal to you and may not be transferred, licensed, or sold.

5. Other Payments Terms
a.Payment Method: If you purchase a subscription, gift card, or other item through the Services, you must provide an accurate and up-to-date payment method acceptable by us. You authorize Float to charge any purchase to your designated payment method, including the then-current price plus any applicable taxes and fees specified. No transaction is binding on Float until accepted and confirmed by Float. We may update your stored payment method using information provided by our payment service providers. Following any update, you authorize us to continue to charge the applicable payment method(s). You are responsible for any additional charges that your payment method provider charges.

b.Cancellations and Disputes: If you have any concerns regarding any transactions through the Services, you must raise them with us first and not cancel or reverse charges through your payment method provider unless you have made a reasonable attempt to resolve the matter directly with us or otherwise as provided by applicable law. Float reserves the right to verify your identity or request more information in connection with your purchases, and not to process or to cancel purchase requests, including if we suspect fraud or if your payment method is declined.

c.Refunds: You will not have the right to receive a refund for any amounts paid to us unless otherwise required by applicable law.

d.Future Functionality: Your purchases are not contingent on the delivery of any current or future functionality, content, or features, or dependent on any oral or written public comments made by Float regarding such functionality or features.

You shall not settle any Claims without prior written consent from Float

15. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, neither Float nor any other party involved in creating, producing, or delivering the Services will be liable for any incidental, special, exemplary, or consequential damages, including, but not limited to, lost profits, loss of data or goodwill, service interruption, computer damage or system failure, or the cost of substitute Services arising out of or in connection with these Terms or from the use of or inability to use the Services, whether based on warranty, contract, tort (including negligence), product liability, or any other legal theory, and whether or not Float has been informed of the possibility of such damage, even if a limited remedy set forth herein is found to have failed of its essential purpose. 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. (Unless otherwise explicitly stated and without prejudice to applicable statutory product liability provisions, Users shall have no right to claim damages against the Owner (or any natural or legal person acting on its behalf).

This does not apply to damages to life, health or physical integrity, damages resulting from the breach of an essential contractual obligation such as any obligation strictly necessary to achieve the purpose of the contract, and/or damages resulting from intent or gross negligence, as long as this Application has been appropriately and correctly used by the User. Unless damages have been caused by way of intent or gross negligence, or they affect life, health or physical integrity, the Owner shall only be liable to the extent of typical and foreseeable damages at the moment the contract was entered into.

In particular, within the limits stated above, the Owner shall not be liable for:
any loss of business opportunities and any other loss, even indirect, that may be incurred by the User (such as, but not limited to, trading losses, loss of revenue, income, profits or anticipated savings, loss of contracts or business relationships, loss of reputation or goodwill, etc.); damages or losses resulting from interruptions or malfunctions of this Application due to acts of force majeure, or unforeseen and unforeseeable events and, in any case, independent of the will and beyond the control of the Owner, such as, but not limited to, failures or disruptions of telephone or electrical lines, the Internet and / or other means of transmission, unavailability of websites, strikes, natural disasters, viruses and cyber attacks, interruptions in the delivery of products, third-party services or applications; any losses that are not the direct consequence of a breach of the Terms by the Owner;

16. Agreement to Arbitrate
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE, UNLESS YOU OPT OUT, IT REQUIRES YOU AND FLOAT TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH WE CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER. ARBITRATION PRECLUDES YOU AND FLOAT FROM SUING IN COURT. YOU AND FLOAT AGREE THAT ARBITRATION WILL BE SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION, OR ANY OTHER KIND OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

a.Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, or the use of the Services, including any claims related to privacy or data security (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right: (a) to bring an individual action in small claims court; and (b) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction, including to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights. For clarity, subject to the terms of this section 16, this agreement to arbitrate applies to Disputes based on events or activities that occurred prior to Last Updated date indicated at the top of these Terms.

b.Without limiting the preceding sentence, you have the right to opt out of binding arbitration by providing Float with written notice of your desire to do so by email at contact.plantake@gmail.com within thirty (30) days following the date you first agree to these Terms (such notice, an “Arbitration Opt-out Notice”). In order to be effective, the Arbitration Opt-out Notice must include your full name, and mailing address, and email address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with section 17.

Initiating an Arbitration
Before either party brings an arbitration action, it will first attempt to resolve the Dispute informally via the following process.

If you and Float cannot reach an agreement to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after you or Float receives such a Notice, then either party may submit the Dispute to binding arbitration as set forth below. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled for thirty (30) days from the date that either you or Float first send the applicable Notice, so that the parties can engage in this informal dispute-resolution process.

Arbitration Rules

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and will be resolved through binding arbitration before one arbitrator. If you are a consumer, the then-current version of the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) will apply, which are available on the AAA’s website (adr.org). The applicable arbitration rules are amended by these Terms as follows:

(i) YOU AND FLOAT AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED, AND YOU AND FLOAT ARE AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and, except as described below for the additional procedures to govern if twenty-five (25) or more similar or coordinated Disputes are asserted against Float or you by the same or coordinated counsel, may not consolidate more than one individual’s Disputes, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding, or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

(ii) For any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the consumer filing fee and Float will pay the remaining AAA fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by Float, Float will pay all AAA fees and costs.

(iii) For all arbitrations where the Disputes asserted are for $25,000 or less, the arbitration shall be resolved according to the AAA’s Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document Submission, and for all other arbitrations the following procedure will apply: (A) the arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate; (B) any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances, and (C) if the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator.

(iv) If you or Float submits a dispute to arbitration and the arbitrator orders any exchange of information, you and Float agree to cooperate to seek from the arbitrator protection for any confidential, proprietary, trade secret, or otherwise sensitive information, documents, testimony, or other materials that might be exchanged or the subject of discovery in the arbitration. You and Float agree to seek such protection before any such information, documents, testimony, or materials are exchanged or otherwise become the subject of discovery in the arbitration. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability.

(v) The arbitrator’s decision will follow these Terms and will be final and binding. The arbitrator will have authority to award temporary, interim, or permanent injunctive relief or relief providing for specific performance of these Terms, but only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual Dispute before the arbitrator. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, nothing in these Terms will preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies and, if the law allows, they can seek relief against us for you.

(vi) The AAA Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings and the AAA Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule will apply if twenty-five (25) or more similar Disputes are asserted against Float or against you by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated (such Disputes, “Coordinated Disputes”). In addition to the application of the AAA Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings and the AAA Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule, you and Float understand and agree that Coordinated Disputes may delay resolution of your or Float’s Dispute.

Enforceability

If any portion of this section 16 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, including but not limited to because it is found to be unconscionable, (i) the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed from these Terms; (ii) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision will have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this section 16 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining Disputes on an individual basis pursuant to this section 16; and (iii) to the extent that any Disputes must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such Disputes must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The litigation of those Disputes will be stayed (and statutes of limitations tolled) pending the outcome of any individual Disputes in arbitration. Further, if any part of this section 16 is found to prohibit an individual Dispute seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this section 16 will be enforceable.

Changes Notwithstanding the provisions of section 19, if Float changes this section 16 after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email to contact.plantake@gmail.com) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or in the date of Float’s email to you notifying you of such change. In order to be effective, the rejection notice must include your full name, mailing address, and email address and clearly indicate your intent to reject changes made to this section 16. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and Float in accordance with the provisions of the Terms you previously agreed to. If the Terms are otherwise modified, without changing this section 16, you agree that modification will not create a new right to opt out of arbitration.

17. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. If any Dispute is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court, then the state and federal courts located in the Northern District of California will have exclusive jurisdiction. You and Float waive any objection to venue in any such courts.

18. Modifying and Terminating the Services
We may change or discontinue any or all or any parts of the Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion, for any purpose, including to make improvements, address technical needs, and help prevent damage to users or the Services. You also have the right to stop using the Services at any time. To the extent permitted by applicable laws, we are not responsible for any loss or harm related to your inability to access or use the Services.

19. Changes to Terms
We may make changes to these Terms by notifying you of the changes, including by posting the revised Terms on the applicable Services or providing additional notice (like by email or via in-service message). For notices made by e-mail, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted. Except as specified in section 16, disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of these Terms in place at the time the dispute arose. Unless we indicate otherwise in our notice, your use of the Services following the effective date of any changes to these Terms will constitute your acceptance of such changes. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you should terminate your account and stop using the Services.

20. Other Terms
These Terms and all additional terms incorporated herein constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Float and you regarding the Services, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Float and you regarding the Services.

If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is held unlawful, invalid, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and is deemed severable from these Terms, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.

These Terms and all additional terms and related documents, including notices and other communications are in the English language. Any translations provided are for your convenience only.

You may not assign or transfer any of your rights or obligations under these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without Float’s prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms, without such consent, will be null and of no effect. We may freely assign or transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.

Float’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of such 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 Float. 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.

The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third-party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity. You agree that communications and transactions between us may be conducted electronically.

21. Warranty Disclaimers
Your use of the Services is at your sole risk. Except as otherwise provided in writing by us and to the extent permitted by applicable laws, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied. Without limiting the foregoing, we explicitly disclaim any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, and any warranties arising out of course of dealing or usage of trade. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties or limitations on applicable statutory rights of a consumer, so the exclusion and limitations in this section may not apply to you.

We make no representation or warranty that the Services will meet your requirements or be available on an uninterrupted or error-free basis. We make no warranty regarding the quality, accuracy, timeliness, truthfulness, completeness, or reliability of any of the Services. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Services to the extent permitted by applicable law.

22. USER CONTENT AND CONDUCT; USER DISPUTES
The Services provide communication channels designed to enable users to communicate with other users. Float does not exert any control over the individuals you interact with, even if you select the “interest matching” chat option or the college student chat option, which Float may offer. Float has no obligation to monitor these communication channels but may, in its discretion, do so in connection with providing the Services. Float may also terminate, suspend or ban your access to and use of the Services at any time, without notice, for any reason in its sole discretion. You acknowledge and agree that any user content, including without limitation text chats and video chats, is not created, endorsed or controlled by Float. Float will not under any circumstances be liable for any user content or activity within the Services. Float is not responsible for information or content that you choose to share within or through the Services nor is Float responsible for the content or actions of other users of the Services. Float is not responsible for maintaining copies of any information or communications you choose to submit to or through the Services.

You are solely responsible for your interaction with other users of the Services and other parties that you come in contact with through the Services. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Float hereby disclaims any and all liability to you or any third party relating to your use of the Services. You acknowledge and agree that Float does not have any special relationship with you as an end user, and as such, Float does not owe you any duty to protect you from the acts of other users or other third parties.

Parental control protections (such as computer hardware, software, or filtering services) are commercially available and may assist you in limiting minors’ access to materials that may be harmful to or inappropriate for minors.

23. Feedback
Float does not accept nor consider unsolicited creative ideas, materials, or pitches of any kind. See our Unsolicited Submissions Policy. If you provide ideas, suggestions, or other feedback about Float or the Services, that feedback is not confidential and may be used by us without restriction and without payment to you. Float does not waive any rights to use similar or related ideas previously known to Float, developed by its employees, or obtained from other sources.

The following provisions apply if you are accessing or using our mobile app on an Apple Inc. (“Apple”) branded mobile device.
