THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN COURTS OR JURY TRIALS, AND LIMITS THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE IN THE EVENT OF A DISPUTE.
These Terms of Use describe the terms and conditions that govern your use of the current and future online and mobile websites, platforms, services, applications, and networks owned or operated by OOt Social Health Inc. O/A OOt (“OOt”), and/or for which OOt currently or in the future provides services and/or technology (the “Platform” or “Platform”). You accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use when you use the Platform, without limitation, when you view or access content on the Platform.
(A) The content and features on the Platform are intended for users who are at least 18 years old. If you are under the age of 18, you should obtain the permission of a parent or legal guardian. Certain parts of the Platform may be subject to other eligibility requirements.
(B) Governing Terms. These Terms of Use, along with any additional terms and conditions that are referenced herein or that are presented elsewhere on the Platform in relation to a specific service or feature and the OOt Privacy Policy, set forth the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Platform. By using the Platform, you agree to comply with all of the terms and conditions hereof. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you should not access or use the Platform.
(C) Changes to Terms of Use. OOt may modify the Terms of Use, or any part thereof, or add or remove terms at any time, and such modifications, additions or deletions will be effective immediately upon posting. Your use of the Platform after such posting shall be deemed to constitute acceptance by you of such modifications, additions or deletions.
(D) Changes to Platform. At various times, OOt may choose to make available updates, bug fixes, or other changes or enhancements to the Platform (collectively, “Service Updates”). Service Updates may be: (i) Automatic, such as in connection with general website changes and additional features or updates to data required by the Platform, (ii) at your election, in which instance you will receive information and instructions for how to authorize optional Service Updates; or (iii) mandatory, in which case you will be required to consent to the Service Update or install or upgrade a third-party plug-in if you wish to maintain access to the Platform. Please note that the Platform may be unavailable during a Service Update.
If you access the Platform through a mobile device, such changes may also be communicated through updated versions of the Platform software, which you consent to receive without further notice. Please review the Terms and our Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. The date that these Terms were last modified can be found at the end of these Terms. Any modifications to these Terms, including, but not limited to, any modifications to the warranty disclaimers or limitation of liability contained in these Terms, will supersede the prior provisions for all activity occurring after the revised version has been made available.
If any change materially limits the availability of the Platform, then in addition to posting the revised document on the Platform, we intend to communicate such a limit directly to you via the email address associated with Your Account (defined below). Therefore, it is important that you keep Your Account contact information up to date. Your continued use of the Platform after the changes come into effect and, in the case of any paid subscription to the OOt services (your “Subscription”), your failure to cancel the same before it renews or within any relevant notice period, will mean you unconditionally accept and agree to be bound to the changes.

OOt owns all rights to its tradename, logos and trademarks used in connection with the Platform. All other logos and trademarks appearing on the Platform are the property of their respective owners.
The content, data, video, and all other material and features on the Platform are presented for the purpose of providing entertainment, news and/or information and/or promoting community and social connectivity in the Service Area.
Any and all disputes, claims and controversies arising out of or in connection with your access to, and/or use of the Platforms, and/or the provision of content, services, and/or technology on or through the Platforms shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws and decisions of the Province of Ontario, Canada applicable to contracts made, entered into and performed entirely therein, without giving effect to its conflict of laws provisions, except to the extent that law is inconsistent with or preempted by federal law. To the extent that a dispute is not subject to arbitration, that action shall be brought in the appropriate Provincial or federal court located in the City of Toronto, in the Province of Ontario, Canada; and we both irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the provincial or federal courts in Toronto, Canada for the adjudication of all non-arbitral claims.
In the unlikely event that you’re not satisfied with customer service’s solution (or if OOt has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally), we each agree to resolve those disputes through binding arbitration or small claims court instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted.
Arbitration Agreement
(1) Claims Subject to Arbitration: OOT and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between us, except for claims arising from bodily injury or that pertain to enforcing, protecting, or the validity of your or our intellectual property rights (or the intellectual property rights of any of our licensors, affiliates and partners). This agreement to arbitrate is intended to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to:
References to “OOT,” “you,” and “us” include our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, licensees, licensors, and providers of content as of the time your or our claim arises; our respective predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns; and all authorized or unauthorized users of the OOT Platform. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Agreement, you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
(2) Pre-Arbitration Notice of Disputes: A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to OOt should be sent by email to: Legal [email protected] (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”).
If we and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by us or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or us is entitled.
(3) Arbitration Procedure: The arbitration will be governed by the Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this arbitration provision, and will be administered by the AAA. (If the AAA is unavailable, another arbitration provider shall be selected by the parties or by the court.) The AAA Rules are available online at http://www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by requesting them in writing at the Notice Address. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision or whether a dispute can or must be brought in arbitration are for the court to decide. The arbitrator may consider but shall not be bound by rulings in other arbitrations involving different customers. Unless we and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by 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 award is based.
(4) Arbitration Fees: The payment of all such fees will be governed by the AAA Rules
