Please read these Terms of Service (“Terms”) carefully as they contain important information about your legal rights, remedies and obligations. By accessing or using the Spot2Nite Platform (as defined herein), you agree to comply with and be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to all of these Terms and Conditions, do not access or use the Spot2Nite Platform.
These terms include an agreement to mandatory arbitration, which means that you agree to submit any dispute related to your use of any of the Spot2Nite Platform, sites and services to binding arbitration rather than a court. The binding arbitration provision also includes a class action waiver, which means that you agree to proceed with any arbitration individually and not as part of a class. It affects how disputes with Spot2Nite are resolved. By accepting these Terms, you agree to be bound by this arbitration clause and class action waiver. Please read it carefully.
Thank you for using Spot2Nite. These Terms constitute a legal binding agreement (“Agreement”) between you and Spot2Nite Inc (“Spot2Nite”, “we”, “our” or “us”) and govern your access to and use of all the text, data, information, software, graphics, photographs and more that we and our affiliates may make available to you (all of which we refer to as “Materials”), the Spot2Nite website, including any subdomains thereof, and any other websites through which Spot2Nite makes its services available (collectively, “Site”), our mobile, tablet and other smart device applications, application program interfaces, emails, text messages, notifications, social media accounts, plug-ins, Downloadable Tools (as defined below) or other software (collectively, “Application”) owned, operated or provided by Spot2Nite to provide our services, and all associated services (collectively, "Spot2Nite Services”), including any feature, content, tools and services accessible by means of the Site and Application. The Materials, Site, Application and Spot2Nite Services together are collectively referred to as the “Spot2Nite Platform”. These Terms do not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with Spot2Nite for the Spot2Nite Platform (or any part thereof). If you are using the Spot2Nite Platform on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept these Terms on the entity’s behalf, and that the entity agrees to be responsible to Spot2Nite if you violate these Terms.

PRODUCT DESCRIPTIONS
BOOKINGS & PURCHASES

You are responsible for paying the park directly for any additional upgrades, service elections or other incidental charges you make once you are at the park.
Where applicable, our park suppliers determine all applicable taxes in the amount we are required to pay over to them. Except as described below, we are not the vendor collecting and remitting taxes to the applicable taxing authorities. We are not a co-vendor with the park. Tax rates and the type of taxes vary greatly by location.
For transactions involving parks located within certain jurisdictions, the charge to your debit or credit card for taxes and fees includes an additional payment of tax that we are required to collect and remit to the jurisdiction for tax owed on amounts we retain as compensation for our services.
SPOT2NITE+ SUBSCRIBERS
While you can access much of our Content and Services for free Services and additional benefits, you will be required to purchase a Spot2Nite+ Membership ("Plus Membership").

FEES
You agree to pay all applicable fees related to your use of the Spot2Nite Platform. By providing a payment method, you expressly authorize us to charge the applicable fees on said payment method as well as taxes and other charges incurred thereto at regular intervals, all of which depend on your particular utilized Spot2Nite Services.
All payments are non-refundable. To the extent that payment mechanisms are provided through third parties, you agree that Spot2Nite will have no liability to you arising out of the acts or omissions of such third parties.
BY PURCHASING PRODUCT(S) AND SERVICE(S), YOU CONSENT TO ALLOW Spot2Nite TO CHARGE YOUR CREDIT CARD, EITHER DIRECTLY OR THROUGH ITS PAYMENT PROCESSORS, FOR THE AMOUNTS DUE FOR YOUR PRODUCT(S) AND SERVICE(S). PLEASE PRINT OUT THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR YOUR RECORDS.

TERMINATION
If you breach any of the terms or conditions of these Terms or Spot2Nite discontinues the Spot2Nite Platform, these Terms will automatically terminate. In the event of the termination of these Terms for any reason, the license granted to you in these Terms will immediately terminate and you must immediately stop all use of the Spot2Nite Platform and destroy or erase all copies of the Downloadable Tools in your possession or control. All of the sections of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination will survive any termination of these Terms. For avoidance of doubt, the licenses described in the General Use section will not survive termination of these Terms. Any use of the Spot2Nite Platform after termination is unlicensed and is in violation of the copyright and other rights of Spot2Nite. Spot2Nite and our affiliates reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, remove or edit content or cancel bookings in our sole discretion.

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
The Spot2Nite Platform may contain our service marks or trademarks as well as those of our affiliates or other companies, in the form of words, text, hypertext, content, images, graphics, logos, audio, and video. Your use of our Spot2Nite Platform does not constitute any right or license for you to use such service marks/trademarks, without the prior written permission of the corresponding service mark/trademark owner.

These electronic communications are part of your relationship with us. You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures or other communications that we send you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing.

In addition, Spot2Nite cannot ensure and does not warrant the security of any information sent to us by you, and you do so at your own risk. Once Spot2Nite receives information from you, we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure its security but we do not accept liability for unintentional disclosure. Although Spot2Nite will in most circumstances be able to receive your email or other information provided through the Platform, Spot2Nite cannot guarantee that it will receive all such email or other information timely and accurately, and Spot2Nite will not be legally obligated to read, act on, or respond to any such email or other information.

You hereby grant Spot2Nite a perpetual (or for the term of the protection), non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, sublicensable and transferable license to (i) access, use, store, copy, adapt, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, publish, transmit, stream, broadcast, publicly display and otherwise exploit in any manner such User Content you post, upload or otherwise provide to Spot2Nite and (ii) use the name and profile picture associated with your User Content submission, in any media or platform, in each case without compensation to you.

You agree that you are solely responsible for all of your User Content and that any such User Content shall be considered both non-confidential and non-proprietary. If you use the Interactive Areas, you also understand that anyone could see your User Content.

You agree not to post, upload, transmit, distribute, store, create or otherwise publish on or through the Spot2Nite Platform any of the following:
• User Content that is libelous, defamatory, profane, obscene, pornographic, sexually explicit, indecent, lewd, vulgar, suggestive, violent, harassing, hateful, threatening, offensive, discriminatory, bigoted, abusive, inflammatory, fraudulent, deceptive or otherwise objectionable;

Your use of the Spot2Nite Platform, including any Interactive Areas, is at your own risk. Enforcement of the User Content and conduct rules set forth in these Terms is solely at Spot2Nite’s discretion, and failure to enforce such rules in some instances does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce such rules in other instances. In addition, these rules do not create any private right of action on the part of any third party or any reasonable expectation that the User Content will not contain any content that is prohibited by these rules.
UNAUTHORIZED ACTIVITIES
To be clear, we authorize your use of the Spot2Nite Platform only for Permitted Purposes.

These Terms and your use of the Spot2Nite Platform will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Louisiana, applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of Louisiana, without resort to its conflict of law provisions. In the event of any matter or dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms that is not subject to binding arbitration, you and Spot2Nite will submit and consent to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction in, and the exclusive venue of, the state and federal courts located within New Orleans, Louisiana.
We control and operate the Spot2Nite Platform from our headquarters in the United States of America and the entirety of the Spot2Nite Platform may not be appropriate or available for use in other locations.

By using the Spot2Nite Platform, including its Spot2Nite Services, you represent and warrant that you are not located in any such country or on any such list.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
Please Read This Provision Carefully. It Affects Your Legal Rights.
This provision facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any dispute (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below) that may arise between you and us. Effectively, then, “dispute” is given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to the services or products provided or billed to you (such as our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) whenever you also assert claims against us in the same proceeding.
Your acceptance of these Terms constitutes a waiver of your right to litigation claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or jury. This provision provides that all disputes between you and us will be resolved by binding arbitration. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees). YOU AND Spot2Nite AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.
Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution For all disputes, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute which is first done by emailing us at [email protected] the following information: (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) a written description of your claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief you seek. If we do not resolve the dispute within 60 days after receiving your notification, then you may pursue your dispute in arbitration. You may pursue your dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.
Arbitration Procedures
If this provision applies and the dispute is not resolved as provided above (Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution), either you or we may initiate arbitration proceedings in a location determined by the arbitrator as set forth herein (provided that such location is reasonably convenient for you), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties, in accordance with the applicable procedural rules set forth in the then prevailing Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS (“JAMS Rules and Procedures”), and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The JAMS Rules and Procedures are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling (800) 352-5267. The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to the JAMS Rules and Procedures. Alternatively, you may assert your claims in small claims court if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The arbitrator shall apply Louisiana law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, the Louisiana Binding Arbitration Law, and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law. The arbitration will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana. If you initiate arbitration against Spot2Nite, you will not be responsible for professional fees for the arbitrator’s services or any other JAMS fees. In the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be cost-prohibitive or greater than the costs of litigation, Spot2Nite will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive or more expensive than the cost of litigation. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal (other than that claims will not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis), or otherwise conflicts with the rules and procedures established by JAMS, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, the portion that is deemed invalid, unenforceable or illegal is that claims will not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor Spot2Nite shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. THE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES PURSUANT TO THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED.
BY AGREEING TO THE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES AS SET FORTH HEREIN, YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND LIMITING YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL AND YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO MAINTAIN OTHER AVAILABLE RESOLUTION PROCESSES, SUCH AS A COURT ACTION.
Other
You understand and agree that by accepting this provision in these Terms, you and Spot2Nite are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. This provision will survive the termination of your account with us or our affiliates and your discontinued use of the Spot2Nite Platform.
REPEAT INFRINGER POLICY
In accordance with the DMCA and other applicable law, Spot2Nite has adopted a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances and at Spot2Nite’s sole discretion, subscribers or account holders who are deemed to be repeat infringers. Spot2Nite may also at our sole discretion limit access to the Spot2Nite Platform and/or terminate the accounts of any users who infringe any intellectual property rights of others, whether or not there is any repeat infringement.
GENERAL TERMS
We think direct communication resolves most issues – if we feel that you are not complying with these Terms, we will likely tell you. We may even provide you with recommended necessary corrective action(s) if possible. However, certain violations of these Terms, as determined by us, may require immediate termination of your access to the Spot2Nite Platform without prior notice to you. Except as otherwise set forth in the dispute resolution provisions, if any of these Terms are deemed inconsistent with applicable law, then such term(s) will be interpreted to reflect the intentions of the parties, and no other terms will be modified. By choosing not to enforce any of these Terms, we are not waiving our rights. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, contain the entire agreement between you and us and, therefore, supersede all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements between Spot2Nite and you about the Spot2Nite Platform and its Spot2Nite Services. The rights of Spot2Nite under our Terms will survive the termination of our Terms.
AMENDMENTS AND CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
Your use of the Spot2Nite Platform is conditioned upon the version of these Terms in force at the time of your use. We reserve the right to change these Terms at any time and you waive any right you may have to receive specific notice of such changes or modifications. All changes to these Terms are effective immediately when we post them and apply to use of the Spot2Nite Platform thereafter. If you continue to access or use the Spot2Nite Platform following our posting of any changes to these Terms, we will consider that you have accepted the changes. Therefore, you must regularly review these Terms to ensure you understand the terms and conditions that apply to your access and use of the Spot2Nite Platform. If you do not agree to the changed Terms, you must stop accessing or using the Spot2Nite Platform. Spot2Nite reserves the right to change any and all features of the Spot2Nite Platform, at any time without notice.
We also recommend you regularly update to the most recent version of our Application, including mobile applications, to allow you to take advantage of new functionality and to ensure you have access to the most recent Terms of Service and promotional offer terms (changes thereto aren’t viewable until you update the Application). You recognize that changes to the Terms of Service and/or promotional offers may occur and that you will be bound to these changes, notwithstanding the fact that you were not aware of them due to your failure to update the Application. Your use of the Application, and failure to update to the most recent version, constitutes your agreement that Spot2Nite shall have no liability to you, and you release Spot2Nite, and its parent, officers, directors, employees and agents, from and against any liability, for any changes to the Terms of Service or promotional offers which were available but that which you were not aware of due to your failure to update the Application.
SEVERABILITY
If any provision of these Terms is deemed unlawful, void, or unenforceable by a court or tribunal of competition jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force.
