Terms of Service Agreement

Overview

This Terms of Service Agreement (“Agreement”) is a legal agreement between The San Francisco Sailing Club, Inc. d/b/a Sail, its affiliates, or its agents (collectively, “Sail”) and the users of the Service (“you”, “your”, or “user”) who registered. This Agreement describes the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the website located at www.sail.online (the “Website”), the mobile application, and the desktop application (the mobile and desktop applications are collectively the “Application”). Sail offers a Software-as-a-Service solution that provides users the ability to manage all their webpages all in one place. The Services allows users to share their real-time activities with other authorized users, all while empowering users to experience the web together. Certain features of the Website may be subject to additional guidelines, terms, or rules, which will be posted on the Website in connection with such features. All such additional terms, guidelines, and rules are incorporated by reference into this Agreement.

Please read this agreement carefully. This website, the applications, and the information on it are controlled by Sail. This agreement governs the use of the website and apply to all internet users visiting the website. By accessing or using the website or application in any way, including using the services or resources available or enabled via the website or application (each a “service” and collectively the “services”), by clicking on the “I accept” button, completing the registration process, and/or browsing the website or downloading Sail’s application, you represent that (1) you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by the terms of use, (2) you are of legal age to form a binding contract with Sail, and (3) you have the authority to enter into this agreement personally or on behalf of the entity you have named as the user, and to bind that entity to the agreement. The term “you” refers to the individual or legal entity, as applicable, identified as the user when you registered on the website. If you do not agree to be bound by the terms of use, you may not access or use the services.

If you subscribe to the services for a term (the “initial term”), then the terms will be automatically renewed for additional one (1) month periods at Sail’s then-current fee for such services unless you decline to renew your subscription in accordance with section 8.6 (automatic renewal) below. 

Please be aware that section 14 contains provisions governing how to resolve disputes between you and Sail. Among other things, section 14 includes an agreement to arbitrate which requires, with limited exceptions, that all disputes between you and us shall be resolved by binding and final arbitration. Section 14 also contains a class action and jury trial waiver. Please read section 14 carefully.

Unless you opt out of the agreement to arbitrate within 30 days: (1) you will only be permitted to pursue disputes or claims and seek relief against us on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action or proceeding and you waive your right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration; and (2) you are waiving your right to pursue disputes or claims and seek relief in a court of law and to have a jury trial.

Any dispute, claim or request for relief relating in any way to your use of the site will be governed and interpreted by and under the laws of the state of California, consistent with the federal arbitration act, without giving effect to any principles that provide for the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. The united nations convention on contracts for the international sale of goods is expressly excluded from this agreement. 

Please be aware that section 1.7 (Sail communications) of this agreement, below, contains your opt-in consent to receive communications from us, including via e-mail and push notifications.

Please note that the agreement is subject to change by Sail in its sole discretion at any time. When changes are made, Sail will make a new copy of the Agreement available in the Services. We will also update the “Last Updated” date at the top of the Terms of Service Agreement. Sail may require you to provide consent to the updated Agreement in a specified manner before further use of the Services is permitted. If you do not agree to any change(s) after receiving a notice of such change(s), you shall stop using the Services. Otherwise, your continued use of the Services constitutes your acceptance of such change(s). Please regularly check the website to view the then-current terms.

You represent and warrant that: (a) all required registration information you submit is true and accurate; and (b) you will maintain and promptly update such information to keep it true and accurate.

3. Responsibility for content

3.1 Types of Content

You acknowledge that all Content, including the Services, is the sole responsibility of the party from whom such Content originated. This means that you, and not Sail, are entirely responsible for all Content, whether or not it is your original Content, that you upload, post, e-mail, transmit or otherwise make available (“Make Available”) through the Services (“Your Content”), and that you and other Registered Users of the Services, and not Sail, are similarly responsible for all Content that you and they Make Available through the Services (“User Content”).

3.2 No Obligation to Pre-Screen Content

‍You acknowledge that Sail has no obligation to pre-screen Content (including, but not limited to, User Content), although Sail reserves the right in its sole discretion to pre-screen, refuse or remove any Content. By entering into the Agreement, you hereby provide your irrevocable consent to such monitoring. You acknowledge and agree that you have no expectation of privacy concerning the transmission of Your Content, including without limitation chat, text, or voice communications. In the event that Sail pre-screens, refuses or removes any Content, you acknowledge that Sail will do so for Sail’s benefit, not yours. Without limiting the foregoing, Sail shall have the right to remove any Content that violates the Agreement or is otherwise objectionable.

3.3 Storage

Unless expressly agreed to by Sail in writing elsewhere, Sail has no obligation to store any of Your Content that you Make Available on the Services. Sail has no responsibility or liability for the deletion or accuracy of any Content, including Your Content; the failure to store, transmit or receive transmission of Content; or the security, privacy, storage, or transmission of other communications originating with or involving use of the Services. Certain Services may enable you to specify the level at which such Services restrict access to Your Content. You are solely responsible for applying the appropriate level of access to Your Content. If you do not choose, the system may default to its most permissive setting. You agree that Sail retains the right to create reasonable limits on Sail’s use and storage of the Content, including Your Content, such as limits on file size, storage space, processing capacity, and similar limits described on the Website and as otherwise determined by Sail in its sole discretion. 

3.4 Use of Social Networking Services

Users can drag and drop their social networking sites (“Third-Party Account”) into the Services. You represent that you are authorized to grant Sail access to your Third-Party Account (including, but not limited to, for use for the purposes described herein) without breach by you of any of the terms and conditions that govern your use of the applicable Third-Party Account and without obligating Sail to pay any fees or making Sail subject to any usage limitations imposed by such third-party service providers. By granting Sail access to any Third-Party Accounts, you understand that Sail may access, make available and store (if applicable) any information, data, text, software, music, sound, photographs, graphics, video, messages, tags and/or other materials accessible through the Services (collectively, “Content”) that you have provided to and stored in your Third-Party Account (“SNS Content”) so that it is available on and through the Services via your Account. Unless otherwise specified in the Agreement, all SNS Content shall be considered to be Your Content (as defined in Section 3.1 (Types of Content)) for all purposes of the Agreement. Depending on the Third-Party Accounts you choose and subject to the privacy settings that you have set in such Third-Party Accounts, personally identifiable information that you post to your Third-Party Accounts may be available on and through your Account on the Services. Please note that if a Third-Party Account becomes unavailable, or Sail’s access to such Third-Party Account is terminated by the third-party service provider, then SNS Content will no longer be available on and through the Services. PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR THIRD-PARTY ACCOUNTS IS GOVERNED SOLELY BY YOUR AGREEMENT(S) WITH SUCH THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND SAIL DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY FOR PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION THAT MAY BE PROVIDED TO IT BY SUCH THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS IN VIOLATION OF THE PRIVACY SETTINGS THAT YOU HAVE SET IN SUCH THIRD-PARTY ACCOUNTS. Sail makes no effort to review any SNS Content for any purpose, including but not limited to, for accuracy, legality or noninfringement, and Sail is not responsible for any SNS Content.

7. Interactions with other users

7.1 User responsibility

You are solely responsible for your interactions with other Registered Users and any other parties with whom you interact, whether or not they are a Registered User; provided, however, that Sail reserves the right, but has no obligation, to intercede in such disputes. You agree that Sail will not be responsible for any liability incurred as the result of such interactions. You agree that you are solely responsible for your conduct in connection with the Service. You agree that you will abide by this Agreement and will not (and will not attempt to): (a) use the Services to send messages containing harassment, violence, threats, hate speech, suicide or self-harm, bullying, abuse, spam, illegal activity, obscenity, pornography, defamation, libel, and/or fraud; or (b) upload content that promotes suicide or self-harm, incites hate or violence against others, degrades or doxes another individual, depicts minors in sexually suggestive situations, or is otherwise illegal in the United States. 

7.2 Content provided by other users

The Services may contain User Content provided by other Registered Users. Sail is not responsible for and does not control User Content. Sail has no obligation to review or monitor, and does not approve, endorse or make any representations or warranties with respect to, User Content. You use all User Content and interact with other Registered Users at your own risk.

8. Fees & purchase terms

8.1 General purpose of agreement: sale of service, not software

The purpose of the Agreement is for you to secure access to the Services. All fees set forth within and paid by you under the Agreement shall be considered solely in furtherance of this purpose. In no way are these fees paid considered payment for the sale, license, or use of Sail’s Software, and, furthermore, any use of Sail’s Software by you in furtherance of the Agreement will be considered merely in support of the purpose of the Agreement.

8.2 Payment

You agree to pay all fees or charges to your Account in accordance with the fees, charges and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. You must provide Sail with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) or PayPal account of a payment provider (“Payment Provider”), or purchase order information, as a condition to signing up for the Services. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the designated credit card or PayPal account, and you must refer to that agreement, not this Agreement, to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing Sail with your credit card number or PayPal account and associated payment information, you agree that Sail is authorized to immediately invoice your Account for all fees and charges due and payable to Sail hereunder and that no additional notice or consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Sail of any change in your billing address or the credit card or PayPal account used for payment hereunder. Sail reserves the right at any time to change its prices and billing methods, either immediately upon posting on the Services or by e-mail delivery to you.

8.3 Service subscription fees

You will be responsible for payment of the applicable fee for any Services (each, a “Service Subscription Fee”) at the time you create your Account and select your annual package (each, a “Service Commencement Date”). Except as set forth in the Agreement, all fees for the Services are non-refundable. No contract will exist between you and Sail for the Services until Sail accepts your order by a confirmatory e-mail or other appropriate means of communication.

8.4 Taxes

The payments required under Section 8.3 (Service Subscription Fees) of this Agreement do not include any Sales Tax that may be due in connection with the services provided under this Agreement. If Sail determines it has a legal obligation to collect a Sales Tax from you in connection with this Agreement, Sail shall collect such Sales Tax in addition to the payments required under Section 8.3 (Service Subscription Fees) of this Agreement. If any services, or payments for any services, under the Agreement are subject to any Sales Tax in any jurisdiction and you have not remitted the applicable Sales Tax to Sail, you will be responsible for the payment of such Sales Tax and any related penalties or interest to the relevant tax authority, and you will indemnify Sail for any liability or expense Sail may incur in connection with such Sales Taxes. Upon Sail’s request, you will provide it with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or other such evidence that you have paid all applicable taxes. For purposes of this section, “Sales Tax” shall mean any sales or use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that is the functional equivalent of a sales tax where the applicable taxing jurisdiction does not otherwise impose a sales or use tax.

8.5 Withholding taxes

You agree to make all payments of fees to Sail free and clear of, and without reduction for, any withholding taxes. Any such taxes imposed on payments of fees to Sail will be your sole responsibility, and you will provide Sail with official receipts issued by the appropriate taxing authority, or such other evidence as we may reasonably request, to establish that such taxes have been paid.

8.6 Automatic renewal

Your subscription will continue indefinitely until terminated in accordance with the Agreement. After your initial subscription period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically commence on the first day following the end of such period (each a “Renewal Commencement Date”) and continue for additional one (1) month terms. You agree that your Account will be subject to this automatic renewal feature unless you cancel your subscription at least ten (10) days prior to the Renewal Commencement Date (or in the event that you receive a notice from Sail that your subscription will be automatically renewed, you will have ten (10) days from the date of the Sail notice), by logging into and going to the “Change/Cancel Membership” page of your “Account Settings” page. If you do not wish your Account to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, please contact Sail at team@sailoften.com, a letter sent to 2309 Bryant Street San Francisco, CA 94110, text/call 415-707-SAIL (415-707-7245), or log in and go to the “Change/Cancel Membership” page on your “Account Settings” page. If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term; your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period. By subscribing, you authorize Sail to charge your Payment Provider now, and again at the beginning of any subsequent subscription period. Upon renewal of your subscription, if Sail does not receive payment from your Payment Provider, (a) you agree to pay all amounts due on your Account upon demand and/or (b) you agree that Sail may either terminate or suspend your subscription and continue to attempt to charge your Payment Provider until payment is received (upon receipt of payment, your Account will be activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new subscription commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received).

8.7 Free trials and other promotions

Any free trial or other promotion that provides Registered User level access to the Services must be used within the specified time of the trial. At the end of the trial period, your use of that Service will expire and any further use of the Service is prohibited unless you pay the applicable subscription fee. If you are inadvertently charged for a subscription, please contact Sail to have the charges reversed.

9. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Sail, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, employees, agents, partners, suppliers, and licensors (each, a “Sail Party” and collectively, the “Sail Parties”) harmless from any losses, costs, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) relating to or arising out of any and all of the following: (a) Your Content; (b) your use of, or inability to use, any part of the Services; (c) your violation of the Agreement; (d) your violation of any rights of another party, including any Registered Users; or (e) your violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations. Sail reserves the right, at its own cost, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will fully cooperate with Sail in asserting any available defenses. This provision does not require you to indemnify any of the Sail Parties for any unconscionable commercial practice by such party or for such party’s fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, or suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Website or any Services provided hereunder. You agree that the provisions in this section will survive any termination of your Account, the Agreement and/or your access to the Services.

12. Term & termination

12.1 Term

The Agreement commences on the earlier date of (a) when you accepted them (as described in the preamble above) or (b) the date you first used the Services, and will remain in full force and effect while you use the Services, unless terminated earlier in accordance with the Agreement.

12.2 Termination of services by Sail‍

‍You will have fourteen (14) days from the Service Commencement Date, or any Renewal Commencement Date, for any Services hereunder, to cancel such Service, in which case Sail will refund your Service Subscription Fee, if already paid pursuant to Section 8.2 (Payment) or 8.3 (Service Subscription Fees), for the applicable Service. Except as set forth above, the Service Subscription Fee for any Service shall be non-refundable. If timely payment cannot be charged to your Payment Provider for any reason, if you have materially breached any provision of the Agreement, or if Sail is required to do so by law (e.g., where the provision of the Services is, or becomes, unlawful), Sail has the right to, immediately and without notice, suspend or terminate any Services provided to you. You agree that all terminations for cause shall be made in Sail’s sole discretion and that Sail shall not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your Account.

12.3 Termination of services by you

‍If you want to terminate the Services provided by Sail, you may do so by (a) notifying Sail at any time and (b) closing your Account for all of the Services that you use. Your notice should be sent, in writing, to Sail’s address set forth below. THE SERVICES WILL CONTINUE AT THE END OF EACH SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PROCEDURE SET FORTH IN SECTION 8.6 (AUTOMATIC RENEWAL).

12.4 Effect of termination

Termination of any Service includes removal of access to such Service and barring of further use of the Service. Termination of all Services also includes deletion of your password and all related information, files and Content associated with or inside your Account (or any part thereof), including Your Content. Upon termination of any Service, your right to use such Service will automatically terminate immediately. You understand that any termination of Services may involve deletion of Your Content associated therewith from our live databases. Sail will not have any liability whatsoever to you for any suspension or termination, including for deletion of Your Content. All provisions of the Agreement which by their nature should survive, shall survive termination of Services, including without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, and limitation of liability.

13. International users

‍The Services can be accessed from countries around the world and may contain references to Services and Content that are not available in your country. These references do not imply that Sail intends to announce such Services or Content in your country. The Services are controlled and offered by Sail from its facilities in the United States of America. Sail makes no representations that the Services are appropriate or available for use in other locations. Those who access or use the Services from other countries do so at their own volition and are responsible for compliance with local law.

14. Arbitration agreement

14.1 Applicability of arbitration agreement

Subject to the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, you and Sail agree that any dispute, claim, disagreements arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Services or of the Website, any communications you receive, any products sold or distributed through the Website, the Services, or the Terms and prior versions of the Terms, including claims and disputes that arose between us before the effective date of these Terms (each, a “Dispute”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that: (1) you and Sail may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if such claims qualify and remain in small claims court; and (2) you or Sail may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, “Dispute” will also include disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the existence of this or any prior versions of the Terms as well as claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms.

14.2 Informal dispute resolution

There might be instances when a Dispute arises between you and Sail. If that occurs, Sail is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. You and Sail agree that good faith informal efforts to resolve Disputes can result in a prompt, low‐cost and mutually beneficial outcome. You and Sail therefore agree that before either party commences arbitration against the other (or initiates an action in small claims court if a party so elects), we will personally meet and confer telephonically or via videoconference, in a good faith effort to resolve informally any Dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement (“Informal Dispute Resolution Conference”). If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you will also participate in the conference.

The party initiating a Dispute must give notice to the other party in writing of its intent to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference (“Notice”), which shall occur within 45 days after the other party receives such Notice, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. Notice to Sail that you intend to initiate an Informal Dispute Resolution Conference should be sent by email to team@sailoften.com or regular mail to our offices located at 2309 Bryant Street San Francisco, CA 94110. The Notice must include: (1) your name, telephone number, mailing address, e‐mail address associated with your account (if you have one); (2) the name, telephone number, mailing address and e-mail address of your counsel, if any; and (3) a description of your Dispute.

The Informal Dispute Resolution Conference shall be individualized such that a separate conference must be held each time either party initiates a Dispute, even if the same law firm or group of law firms represents multiple users in similar cases, unless all parties agree; multiple individuals initiating a Dispute cannot participate in the same Informal Dispute Resolution Conference unless all parties agree. In the time between a party receiving the Notice and the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference, nothing in this Arbitration Agreement shall prohibit the parties from engaging in informal communications to resolve the initiating party’s Dispute. Engaging in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference is a condition precedent and requirement that must be fulfilled before commencing arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the Informal Dispute Resolution Conference process required by this section.

14.3 Waiver of jury trial

YOU AND SAIL HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Sail are instead electing that all Disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in the subsection entitled “Applicability of Arbitration Agreement” above. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review. 

14.4 Waiver of class and other non-individualized relief

YOU AND SAIL AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN SUBSECTION 14.9, EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND DISPUTES OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the party’s individual claim. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to, nor shall it, affect the terms and conditions under the Subsection 14.9 entitled “Batch Arbitration.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides by means of a final decision, not subject to any further appeal or recourse, that the limitations of this subsection, “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” are invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), you and Sail agree that that particular claim or request for relief (and only that particular claim or request for relief) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in the state or federal courts located in the State of California. All other Disputes shall be arbitrated or litigated in small claims court. This subsection does not prevent you or Sail from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.

14.5 Rules and forum

The Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce; and notwithstanding any other provision herein with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement and any arbitration proceedings. If the Informal Dispute Resolution Process described above does not resolve satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after receipt of your Notice, you and Sail agree that either party shall have the right to finally resolve the Dispute through binding arbitration. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this section of this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA Rules are currently available at https://www.adr.org/sites/default/files/ Consumer%20Rules.pdf. A party who wishes to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a request for arbitration (the “Request”). The Request must include: (1) the name, telephone number, mailing address, e-mail address of the party seeking arbitration and the account username (if applicable) as well as the email address associated with any applicable account; (2) a statement of the legal claims being asserted and the factual bases of those claims; (3) a description of the remedy sought and an accurate, good‐faith calculation of the amount in controversy in United States Dollars; (4) a statement certifying completion of the Informal Dispute Resolution process as described above; and (5) evidence that the requesting party has paid any necessary filing fees in connection with such arbitration.

If the party requesting arbitration is represented by counsel, the Request shall also include counsel’s name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address. Such counsel must also sign the Request. By signing the Request, counsel certifies to the best of counsel’s knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, that: (1) the Request is not being presented for any improper purpose, such as to harass, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution; (2) the claims, defenses and other legal contentions are warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument for extending, modifying, or reversing existing law or for establishing new law; and (3) the factual and damages contentions have evidentiary support or, if specifically so identified, will likely have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation or discovery.

Unless you and Sail otherwise agree, or the Batch Arbitration process discussed in Subsection 14.9 is triggered, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator may direct a limited and reasonable exchange of information between the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. Your responsibility to pay any AAA fees and costs will be solely as set forth in the applicable AAA Rules.

You and Sail agree that all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept confidential and shall not be shared with anyone except the parties’ attorneys, accountants, or business advisors, and then subject to the condition that they agree to keep all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings confidential.

14.6 Arbitrator

The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of California and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within thirty-five (35) days of delivery of the Request, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules, provided that if the Batch Arbitration process under Subsection 14.9 is triggered, the AAA will appoint the arbitrator for each batch.

14.7 Authority of arbitrator

The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including, without limitation, disputes arising out of or related to the interpretation or application of the Arbitration Agreement, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or any portion of the Arbitration Agreement, except for the following: (1) all Disputes arising out of or relating to the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” including any claim that all or part of the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” is unenforceable, illegal, void or voidable, or that such subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” has been breached, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (2) except as expressly contemplated in the subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration,” all Disputes about the payment of arbitration fees shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (3) all Disputes about whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; and (4) all Disputes about which version of the Arbitration Agreement applies shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties, except as expressly provided in the subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration.” The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any Dispute. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

14.8 Attorneys’ fees and costs

The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Request was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). If you or Sail need to invoke the authority of a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, then the party that obtains an order compelling arbitration in such action shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in securing an order compelling arbitration. The prevailing party in any court action relating to whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration, including the Informal Dispute Resolution Process, is entitled to recover their reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. 

14.9 Batch arbitration

To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of arbitrations, you and Sail agree that in the event that there are one hundred (100) or more individual Requests of a substantially similar nature filed against Sail by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations, within a thirty (30) day period (or as soon as possible thereafter), the AAA shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 Requests per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 Requests left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining Requests); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award (“Batch Arbitration”).

All parties agree that Requests are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise the AAA, and the AAA shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (“Administrative Arbitrator”). In an effort to expedite resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by Sail.

You and Sail agree to cooperate in good faith with the AAA to implement the Batch Arbitration process including the payment of single filing and administrative fees for batches of Requests, as well as any steps to minimize the time and costs of arbitration, which may include: (1) the appointment of a discovery special master to assist the arbitrator in the resolution of discovery disputes; and (2) the adoption of an expedited calendar of the arbitration proceedings.

This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision.

14.10 30-Day right to opt out

You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: 2309 Bryant Street San Francisco, CA 94110, within thirty (30) days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, the email address you used to set up your Sail account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.

14.11 Invalidity, expiration

Except as provided in the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief”, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. You further agree that any Dispute that you have with Sail as detailed in this Arbitration Agreement must be initiated via arbitration within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy, or it will be forever time barred. Likewise, you agree that all applicable statutes of limitation will apply to such arbitration in the same manner as those statutes of limitation would apply in the applicable court of competent jurisdiction.

14.12 Modification

Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, we agree that if Sail makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, it will notify you. Unless you reject the change within thirty (30) days of such change become effective by writing to Sail at 2309 Bryant Street San Francisco, CA 94110, your continued use of the Website and/or Services, including the acceptance of products and services offered on the Website following the posting of changes to this Arbitration Agreement constitutes your acceptance of any such changes. Changes to this Arbitration Agreement do not provide you with a new opportunity to opt out of the Arbitration Agreement if you have previously agreed to a version of these Terms and did not validly opt out of arbitration. If you reject any change or update to this Arbitration Agreement, and you were bound by an existing agreement to arbitrate Disputes arising out of or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Services or of the Website, any communications you receive, any products sold or distributed through the Website, the Services, or these Terms, the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted the Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms) remain in full force and effect. Sail will continue to honor any valid opt outs of the Arbitration Agreement that you made to a prior version of these Terms.
