Any use of the HoneyBook Services in violation of the foregoing violates these Terms of Service and may result in, among other things, termination or suspension of your rights to use the HoneyBook Services.

Fees: To the extent the Service or any portion thereof is made available for any fee, or you are a Client paying a Vendor or Business for goods or services via the Service, you will be required to provide HoneyBook information regarding your credit card or other payment instrument. You represent and warrant to HoneyBook that such information is true and that you are authorized to use the payment instrument. If you have registered for the Services via a subscription plan, you expressly acknowledge and agree that (a) HoneyBook is authorized to charge your credit card or other payment instrument in accordance with the terms of your subscription plan for as long as your subscription continues, and (b) your subscription is continuous until you cancel it or HoneyBook suspends or otherwise stops providing access to the site and/or Services in accordance with these terms. You will promptly update your account information with any changes (for example, a change in your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur. As a Vendor, you may be required to select a payment plan and you agree to pay a pre-selected percentage of money you receive from purchases made by Clients of your goods and services through the Service, and you will pay HoneyBook a percentage of each such transaction, as set forth in further detail on the Service. If you dispute any charges by HoneyBook you must let HoneyBook know within thirty (30) days after the date that HoneyBook charges you. If you dispute any charges by a Vendor, you must contact the Vendor directly. As a Vendor, if you agree to refund any fees to a Client, you are responsible and will pay HoneyBook (and HoneyBook may retain) any transaction costs associated with such refund. We reserve the right to change HoneyBook’s prices. If HoneyBook does change prices, HoneyBook will provide notice of the change on the Site or in email to you, at HoneyBook’s option, at least 30 days before the change is to take effect. If you have registered for the Services via a subscription plan, your subscription plan may be subject to fee adjustments, including automatic fee increases, during your subscription term in accordance with the terms of your subscription plan; and where a fee adjustment applies to you, we will charge or invoice you under the new price structure, starting with the next billing period in the subscription term, or otherwise in accordance with the terms of your subscription plan. Your continued use of the Service after the price change or fee adjustments becomes effective constitutes your agreement to pay the changed amount. You shall be responsible for all taxes associated with the Services other than U.S. taxes based on HoneyBook’s net income.

Chargebacks: To the extent you have received payment for goods or services through the HoneyBook Platform (“Payee”) from or on behalf of a Client, Business or other party (“Payor”), the amount of a transaction may be charged back or reversed to Payee’s payment account (a “Chargeback”) if the transaction (a) is disputed by the Payor, (b) is reversed for any reason, (c) was not authorized or we have any reason to believe that the transaction was not authorized, or (d) is allegedly unlawful, suspicious, or in violation of the terms of these Terms of Service. Payee shall owe HoneyBook and will immediately pay HoneyBook the amount of any Chargeback and any associated fees, fines, or penalties assessed by any processing financial institutions, or MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Discover, and other payment card networks, associations, or companies.

Authorization to Charge Payment Methods on File: You, as Payee, authorize us to charge any payment method we have on file for you in the amount of any Chargeback; any other amount you owe us; any Losses we may incur relating to your transactions, your use of the Services, or your business; any obligations you owe us, including under these Terms of Service or any other agreement we have with you; or to fund the Reserve. To execute such charges, you expressly authorize us to (a) initiate individual or reoccurring debit entries to any bank account we have on file for you (e.g., ACH debits) and (b) charge any credit or debit card account we have on file for you. If any debit entry or charge is rejected, you agree to immediately pay the amount due directly to us and authorize us to initiate other debit entries and charges at any time and from time to time in any amount up to the amount due until the amount due is paid in full. We are not responsible for any amount you may incur from our charges, including overdraft and overlimit fees. Payment methods we have on file for you include payment methods you identify to us and payment methods we identify on our own. For purposes of this and the next section, “Losses” include Chargebacks, refunds, returns, shortfalls, adjustments, settlements, losses, liabilities, damages, fines, penalties, fees, costs and expenses.

Reserve: We may withhold funds from payments (including payment processor payouts) to you, as Payee, and/or designate an amount of funds that you must maintain in a reserve account held by us (“Reserve”) to pay any actual or potential Losses we believe we may incur related to your transactions, your use of the Services, your business, or to secure the performance of your obligations under any agreement between you and us, including these Terms of Service. The Reserve will be in an amount determined by us in our sole discretion to cover actual or potential Losses we may incur and current, past and future obligations you may owe us. The Reserve may be raised, reduced or removed at any time by us, in our sole discretion. If you do not have sufficient funds in your Reserve, we may fund the Reserve from any payment method we have on file for you. You grant us a security interest in and lien on any and all funds held in the Reserve, and also authorize us to make any withdrawals or debits from the Reserve, and charge any payment method we have on file for you, to cover any Losses, obligations and amounts you owe us. You will execute any documents required by us to perfect our security interest in any funds in the Reserve or requested by us in connection with the Reserve.

Setoff: In the event that there is an outstanding amount you owe us, we may set off such amount from any payments that would otherwise be made to you.

Power of Attorney: You appoint us and our designees your true and lawful attorney in fact, with full power to take any action in your name and place relating to any amounts you owe us under any agreement you have with us, including these Terms of Service, that we deem advisable and consistent with the terms of such agreement. You will timely execute and deliver to us any power of attorney instrument we may require evidencing our authority and power under this section.

Due Diligence: You, as a Business or Vendor, agree to provide us with any financial statements, balance sheets, statements of income, bank and credit card account information, and any other financial or business information we may request within two (2) business days of our request. Failure to provide this information timely is a breach of these Terms of Service and may result in establishing a Reserve or raising the amount of the Reserve.

10. Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

Agreement to Arbitrate: This Section “Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration” is referred to in this Terms of Service as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Company, whether arising out of or relating to this Terms of Service (including any alleged breach thereof), the Services, any advertising, any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Terms of Service, you and Company are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.

Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief: YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND COMPANY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.

Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution: Company is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing customer support at [email protected]. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to Company should be sent to 539 Bryant Street, Suite 200, San Francisco, CA 94107 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If Company and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or Company may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Company or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Company is entitled.

Arbitration Procedures: Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, http://www.adr.org/consumer_arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms of Service as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under the Terms of Service and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
Unless Company and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination shall be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, Company agrees 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.

Costs of Arbitration: Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the "Arbitration Fees") will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is $75,000 or less, at your request, Company will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than $75,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, Company will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Company will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.

Confidentiality: All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.

Severability: If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief”) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement shall be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of the subsection above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement shall be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of the Terms of Service will continue to apply.

Future Changes: Notwithstanding any provision in this Terms of Service to the contrary, Company agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a user of the Services, you may reject any such change by sending Company written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Service (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Service).

These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and HoneyBook and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and HoneyBook with respect to the Service. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third party services, third party content or third party software.

With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and HoneyBook agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within San Francisco County, California. The failure of HoneyBook to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of this agreement and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign this Terms of Service without the prior written consent of HoneyBook, but HoneyBook may assign or transfer this Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction.
