                                                                                                                            September 1, 2020

OutpostLE (“OutpostLE,” “we,” “us,” and/or “our”) provides its services (described below) to you through its applications and other software made available by OutpostLE and its primary website, OutpostLE.com and other website (collectively, the “Website”) (the “Service(s)”), subject to the following Terms of Service (as amended from time to time, these “Terms” or “Terms of Service”). We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms at any time without further notice. You should periodically visit this page to review the current Terms so you are aware of any revision to which you are bound and print a copy of these Terms for your records. If we do this, we will post the changes to these Terms on this page and will indicate at the top of this page the date these terms were last revised. We may also notify you, either through the Services user interface, in an email notification or through other reasonable means. Any such changes will become effective for existing users no earlier than ten (10) days after they are posted, except that changes addressing new functions of the Services or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. Your continued use of the Service after the date any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. If you do not agree to abide by these or any future Terms, do not use or access (or continue to use or access) the Service.

PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY AS THEY CONTAIN AN AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AND OTHER IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REMEDIES AND OBLIGATIONS. THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE REQUIRES (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) THAT YOU SUBMIT CLAIMS YOU HAVE AGAINST US TO BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION, AND FURTHER (1) YOU WILL ONLY BE PERMITTED TO PURSUE CLAIMS AGAINST COMPANY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING, AND (2) YOU WILL ONLY BE PERMITTED TO SEEK RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. PLEASE INDICATE YOUR ACCEPTANCE TO THESE TERMS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED BY OUTPOSTLE. INDICATING ACCEPTANCE ESTABLISHES A BINDING AND EXECUTED WRITTEN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND OUTPOSTLE. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT THESE TERMS, YOU CANNOT USE THE SERVICE.

The Terms include, and incorporate by reference, OutpostLE’s Privacy Policy which you may obtain by sending us a request to support@OutpostLE.com

Access and Use of the Service

Services Description: The Service is a technology platform that provides an online social marketplace in which individuals and businesses (whether for-profit, non-profit, government organizations, etc.) (generally referred to as “Businesses”) can publish, consume or otherwise interact with individuals (known as “Members”) via the Service (known as “Interactions”). All purchases of products and services (“Products”) are made directly (and any contract for purchase and sale is) between the Member and Business; OutpostLE provides the forum for Members and Businesses to consider opportunities, but it is not a seller of any Products. OutpostLE may publish Interactions on behalf of Businesses where our editorial discretion is involved. OutpostLE may or may not be compensated for Interactions on our platform.  We also do not participate or facilitate in the resolution of disputes between our Members and Businesses. OutpostLE has no control over and does not guarantee (a) the existence, quality, safety, authenticity, or legality of Products advertised on the Service; (b) the truth or accuracy of Business’ content published either directly or indirectly on the Service; (c) the ability of Businesses to sell Products; (d) the ability of Members to pay for Products; or (e) that a Member or Business will actually complete a transaction.

You can access features provided by third-parties through the Service that allow you to book or transact online with local Businesses, such as making reservations, shopping for goods and services (e.g. accounting, legal, landscaping, etc.) offered by Businesses, ordering food delivery, or scheduling appointments. These features may be provided by such third-parties’ partners, including through iframes or similar formats. Use of any third-party in connection with the Service is governed by different or additional terms presented to you as part of the browsing, booking or transaction process. Please note that such third-party partners and/or the transacting local Businesses themselves, and not OutpostLE, are responsible for fulfilling such content, bookings and transactions.

In all instances, OutpostLE is not responsible for the accuracy, availability or reliability of any information, content, goods, data, opinions, advice or statements made available in connection with third party services. As such, OutpostLE is not liable for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any such third-party service. OutpostLE enables these features merely as a convenience and the inclusion of such features does not imply an endorsement, recommendation, or even acknowledgement that OutpostLE has reviewed such information.

Use of Stripe.

If you wish to purchase any Products made available through the Service you will be automatically transferred to a third-party processor (e.g. Stripe) for payment processing. In order to make a purchase you will be asked to supply certain information relevant to your purchase including, without limitation, your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card, your billing address, and your shipping information. Any information we collect is used for billing purposes and to fulfill orders.

Payment processing services for purchases of Products are provided by Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the “Stripe Services Agreement”). By agreeing to these terms or continuing to all Members to make purchases of Products, each Business agrees to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of our enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you agree to provide us accurate and complete information about you and your business, and you authorize us to share it and transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe.

Your Registration Obligations: While you may have the opportunity to view certain aspects of our Service on our Website, the majority of the benefits are derived when you register with the Service directly. If you choose to register for the Service (whether directly or through a third-party service), you agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself or the Business you represent. Registration data and certain other information about you or the Business you represent are governed by our Privacy Policy. The Service is available only to those individuals, personally or in his/her authorized corporate capacity, who can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, the Service is not available to minors (people under the age of majority in their state of residence) or to temporarily or permanently suspended members of the Service. If you do not qualify, please do not use the Service. Additionally, OutpostLE reserves the right to refuse access to, or use of the Service to anyone, and may terminate any account, at any time, in its sole discretion. You are only authorized to create and use one account  for the Service and are prohibited from using alter egos or other disguised identities when using the Service. The Service is not available to anyone outside of the United States.

Third Party Services for Registration and Service Enhancement: We may provide you with the option of registering for the Service using third party services (e.g. Google, Amazon Web Services, Facebook Connect, Instagram, LinkedIn, etc.) and otherwise enable various third-party services to be directly integrated into your OutpostLE experience. We look to enhance your experiences with the Service by integrating these third-party services into the Service. To take advantage of these features, we may ask you to register for or log into such services on the websites of their respective providers. By enabling third party services within the Service, you are allowing us to pass your log-in information to these service providers for this purpose. For more information about the implications of activating these third party services and OutpostLE’s use, storage and disclosure of information related to you and your use of such services within the Service (including your friend lists and the like), please refer to our Privacy Policy which you may obtain by sending us a request to support@OutpostLE.com.  However, please remember that the manner in which third party services use, store and disclose your information is governed solely by the policies of such third parties, and OutpostLE shall have no liability or responsibility for the privacy practices or other actions of any third party site or service that may be enabled within the Service.

Member Account, Password and Security: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, if any, and are fully responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify OutpostLE of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security, and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Service. OutpostLE will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this Section.

Modifications to Service: OutpostLE reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice, including, without limitation, its right to charge fees for particular aspects of the Service. You agree that OutpostLE shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

You further acknowledge that OutpostLE reserves the right to change these general practices and limits at any time, in its sole discretion, with or without notice.

If you deny, you will not receive any push notifications/alerts. If you accept, push notifications/alerts will be automatically sent to you.

We also share your location with third-parties (as set out below) as part of the location-based services we offer and for other commercial purposes. You can change the settings on your mobile device to prevent it from providing us with such information. This location data is collected in a form that personally identifies you and will be used by us and our partners and licensees to provide and improve location-based products and services or for other commercial purposes. You should consider the risks involved in disclosing your location information to other people.

  • your physical or electronic signature;
  • identification of the content that has been removed or to which access has been disabled and the location at which the content appeared before it was removed or disabled;

You further acknowledge and agree that OutpostLE shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any content, events, goods or services available on or through any such site or resource. Any dealings you have with third parties found while using the Service are between you and the third party, and you agree that OutpostLE is not liable for any loss or claim that you may have against any such third party.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.

Disclaimer of Warranties

YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS.

YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT OUTPOSTLE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF OUTPOSTLE HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, RESULTING FROM: (I) THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE (INCLUDING ANY INJURY OR OTHER BODILY HARM THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE); (II) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH OR FROM THE SERVICE; (III) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (IV) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE; OR (V) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SERVICE. IN NO EVENT SHALL OUTPOSTLE’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR CAUSES OF ACTION EXCEED ANY FEES PAID BY YOU,  BUT NOT MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (USD $100).

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE DISCLAIMER OR EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU OR BE ENFORCEABLE WITH RESPECT TO YOU. IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR WITH THESE TERMS, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE USE OF THE SERVICE.

IF YOU ARE A USER FROM NEW JERSEY, THE FOREGOING SECTIONS TITLED “DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES” AND “LIMITATION OF LIABILITY” ARE INTENDED TO BE ONLY AS BROAD AS IS PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY. IF ANY PORTION OF THESE SECTIONS IS HELD TO BE INVALID UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY, THE INVALIDITY OF SUCH PORTION SHALL NOT AFFECT THE VALIDITY OF THE REMAINING PORTIONS OF THE APPLICABLE SECTIONS.

Termination

You agree that OutpostLE, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service and remove and discard any Products or content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if OutpostLE believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of Service, may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. OutpostLE may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Service under any provision of these Terms may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that OutpostLE may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Service. Further, you agree that OutpostLE shall not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of your access to the Service.

General

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and OutpostLE and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and OutpostLE 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. If you reside in the U.S., these Terms of Service shall be governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina without regard to its conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, as a U.S. resident, you and OutpostLE agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Wake County, North Carolina. The failure of OutpostLE to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER. 

Please Read This Provision Carefully. It Affects Your Legal Rights. 

This Dispute Resolution, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver provision (“Provision”) facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any dispute (e.g., claim or controversy, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort – including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence – or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below) that may arise between you and us. In this Provision, “dispute” is given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to you (such as our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) relating to these Terms or the Website, whenever you also assert claims against us in the same proceeding.

This Provision provides that all disputes between you and us will be resolved by binding arbitration. Acceptance of these Terms constitutes a waiver of your right to litigation claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or a jury. To be clear, there is no judge or jury in arbitration and judicial review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this Provision and can award the same damages and relief (including attorney’s fees) that a court is permitted to award. You may, however, opt-out of this Provision. If done, you would have the right or the opportunity to bring claims in court, before a judge or a jury, or to participate in or to be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). BOTH YOU AND COMPANY 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, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute which is done by emailing the following information to [support@OutpostLEle.com]: (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 45 days after receiving your notification, than you may pursue your dispute in arbitration. You may pursue your dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.

Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt-Out

Notwithstanding the above, you or we may choose to pursue a dispute in court and not by arbitration if: (a) the dispute qualifies for initiation in small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THESE TERMS (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). You may opt-out of this Provision by emailing the following information to [support@OutpostLEle.com]: (1) your name; (2) your address; (3) a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with us through arbitration. Either way, we will not take your decision personally. In fact, we promise that your decision to opt-out of this Provision will have no adverse effect on your relationship with us. But, we do have to enforce the Opt-Out Deadline so keep in mind that any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and you must pursue your dispute in arbitration or small claims court. 

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. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration only, and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration or a consolidated or representative action or arbitration. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision. For arbitration before AAA, for disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action or representative procedures or rules apply to the arbitration.

Because this Website and these Terms concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all disputes. However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.

Arbitration Award – The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not

provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party or if required by applicable law. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA or other applicable law, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.

Location of Arbitration – You or we may initiate arbitration in either North Carolina or the federal judicial district that includes your billing address.

Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs – So long as you place a request in writing prior to commencement of the arbitration, we will pay all arbitration filing fees and AAA or JAMS hearing fees and any arbitrator’s hearing fees, costs and expenses upon your written request to the arbitrator given at or before the first evidentiary hearing in the arbitration. But, you will still be responsible for all additional fees and costs that you incur in the arbitration which include but are not limited to attorneys’ fees or expert witnesses. In addition to any fees and costs recoverable under applicable law, if you provide notice and negotiate in good faith with us as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution” and the arbitrator concludes that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator.

Class Action Waiver

Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action, representative action, or private attorney general action) unless both you and we specifically agree to do so in writing following initiation of the arbitration. If you choose to pursue your dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other user of this Website can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.

Jury Waiver

You understand and agree that by accepting this Provision in these Terms, you and we are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, you and we might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that you would have if you went to court (e.g., the rights to both appeal and certain types of discovery) may be more limited or may also be waived.

Severability

If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision whose remainder will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the dispute will be decided by a court.

Continuation

This Provision shall survive your discontinued use of the Website and the Service. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, we agree that if we make any change to this Provision (other than a change to our notice address), you may reject any such change and require us to adhere to the present language in this Provision if a dispute between us arises.

LANGUAGE. The parties hereto have expressly required that these Terms and all documents and notices relating thereto be drafted in the English language.
