10. Purchases.
Generally. From time to time, Fox Hunters Club may offer products and services for purchase (“in app purchases”) through iTunes, Google Play, carrier billing, Fox Hunters Club direct billing or other payment platforms authorized by Fox Hunters Club. If you choose to make an in app purchase, you will be prompted to confirm your purchase with the applicable payment provider, and your method of payment (be it your card or a third party account such as Google Play or iTunes) (your “Payment Method”) will be charged at the prices displayed to you for the service(s) you’ve selected as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments, and you authorize Fox Hunters Club or the third party account, as applicable, to charge you.
Auto-Renewal. If you purchase an auto-recurring periodic subscription, your Payment Method will continue to be billed for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for an additional equivalent period, at the price you agreed to when subscribing. If you do not wish your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, you will need to access your third party account (or Account Settings on Fox Hunters Club) and follow instructions to cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the Fox Hunters Club application from your device. Deleting your account on Fox Hunters Club or deleting the Fox Hunters Club application from your device does not cancel your subscription; Fox Hunters Club will retain all funds charged to your Payment Method until you cancel your subscription on Fox Hunters Club or the third party account, as applicable. If you cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term, and your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires.
Additional Terms that apply if you pay Fox Hunters Club directly with your Payment Method. If you pay Fox Hunters Club directly, Fox Hunters Club may correct any billing errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your Payment Method, Fox Hunters Club may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion.
You may edit your Payment Method information by visiting Fox Hunters Club and going to Settings. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not edit your Payment Method information or cancel your subscription, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the Payment Method, as it may be updated. This may result in a change to your payment billing dates. In addition, you authorize us to obtain updated or replacement expiration dates and card numbers for your credit or debit card as provided by your credit or debit card issuer. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method.
Super Likes and Other Virtual Items. From time to time, you may be able to purchase a limited, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use “virtual items,” including but not limited to Super Likes (collectively, “Virtual Items”). Any Virtual Item balance shown in your account does not constitute a real-world balance or reflect any stored value, but instead constitutes a measurement of the extent of your license. Virtual Items do not incur fees for non-use, however, the license granted to you in Virtual Items will terminate in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, when Fox Hunters Club ceases providing the Service or your account is otherwise closed or terminated. Fox Hunters Club, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to charge fees for the right to access or use Virtual Items and/ or may distribute Virtual Items with or without charge. Fox Hunters Club may manage, regulate, control, modify or eliminate Virtual Items at any time. Fox Hunters Club shall have no liability to you or any third party in the event that Fox Hunters Club exercises any such rights. Virtual Items may only be redeemed through the Service. ALL PURCHASES AND REDEMPTIONS OF VIRTUAL ITEMS MADE THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE. The provision of Virtual Items for use in the Service is a service that commences immediately upon the acceptance of your purchase of such Virtual Items. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT FOX HUNTERS CLUB IS NOT REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A REFUND FOR ANY REASON, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE MONEY OR OTHER COMPENSATION FOR UNUSED VIRTUAL ITEMS WHEN AN ACCOUNT IS CLOSED, WHETHER SUCH CLOSURE WAS VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY.
Refunds. Generally, all charges for purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. We may make an exception if a refund for a subscription offering is requested within fourteen days of the transaction date, or if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds.

THE DAMAGES LIMITATION SET FORTH IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING SENTENCE APPLIES (i) REGARDLESS OF THE GROUND UPON WHICH LIABILITY IS BASED (WHETHER DEFAULT, CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, OR OTHERWISE), (ii) IRRESPECTIVE OF THE TYPE OF BREACH OF OBLIGATIONS, AND (iii) WITH RESPECT TO ALL EVENTS, THE SERVICE, AND THIS AGREEMENT.
THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 14 SHALL APPLY EVEN IF YOUR REMEDIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT FAIL WITH RESPECT TO THEIR ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES, SO SOME OR ALL OF THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
15. Arbitration, Class-Action Waiver, and Jury Waiver.
Except where prohibited by applicable law:
- The exclusive means of resolving any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including any alleged breach thereof), or the Service, regardless of the date of accrual and including past, pending, and future claims, shall be BINDING ARBITRATION. The one exception to the exclusivity of arbitration is that either party has the right to bring an individual claim against the other in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction, or, if filed in arbitration, the responding party may request that the dispute proceed in small claims court instead if the claim is within the jurisdiction of the small claims court. If the request to proceed in small claims court is made before an arbitrator has been appointed, the arbitration shall be administratively closed. If the request to proceed in small claims court is made after an arbitrator has been appointed, the arbitrator shall determine whether the dispute should remain in arbitration or instead be decided in small claims court. Such arbitration shall be conducted by written submissions only, unless either you or Fox Hunters Club elect to invoke the right to an oral hearing before the Arbitrator. But whether you choose arbitration or small claims court, you agree that you will not under any circumstances commence, maintain, or participate in any class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding against Fox Hunters Club.
- By accepting this Agreement, you agree to the Arbitration Agreement in this Section 15 (subject to the limited one-time right to opt out within thirty (30) days belonging to members who first created an account. In doing so, BOTH YOU AND FOX HUNTERS CLUB GIVE UP THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend any claims between you and Fox Hunters Club (except for matters that may be properly taken to a small claims court and are within such court’s jurisdiction). YOU ALSO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER CLASS PROCEEDING, including, without limitation, any past, pending or future class actions, including those existing as of the date of this Agreement.
- If you assert a claim against Fox Hunters Club outside of small claims court (and Fox Hunters Club does not request that the claim be moved to small claims court), your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR, NOT A JUDGE OR JURY, and the arbitrator shall determine all claims and all issues regarding the arbitrability of the dispute. The same is true for Fox Hunters Club. Both you and Fox Hunters Club are entitled to a fair hearing before the arbitrator. The arbitrator can generally grant the relief that a court can, including the ability to hear a dispositive motion (which may include a dispositive motion based upon the parties’ pleadings, as well as a dispositive motion based upon the parties’ pleadings along with the evidence submitted), but you should note that arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.
- The Jurisdiction and Venue provisions in Sections 16 and 17 are incorporated and are applicable to this Arbitration Agreement.
As you decide whether to agree to this Arbitration Agreement, here are some important considerations:
- Arbitration is a process of private dispute resolution that does not involve the civil courts, a civil judge or a jury. Instead, the parties’ dispute is decided by a private arbitrator. Arbitration does not limit or affect the legal claims you as an individual may bring against Fox Hunters Club. Agreeing to arbitration will only affect where those claims may be brought and how they will be resolved.
- Arbitration is generally considered to be a more rapid dispute resolution process than the judicial system, but that is not always the case. The Arbitrator will typically determine whether Fox Hunters Club or you will be required to pay or split the cost of any arbitration with Fox Hunters Club, based on the circumstances presented.
- IMPORTANT: THERE MAY BE FUTURE LAWSUITS AGAINST FOX HUNTERS CLUB ALLEGING CLASS AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS ON YOUR BEHALF WHICH, IF SUCCESSFUL, COULD POTENTIALLY RESULT IN SOME MONETARY OR OTHER RECOVERY TO YOU, IF YOU ELECT TO OPT OUT OF THE APPLICATION OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. THE MERE EXISTENCE OF SUCH CLASS AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS, HOWEVER, DOES NOT MEAN THAT SUCH LAWSUITS WILL ULTIMATELY SUCCEED, OR, EVEN IF SUCCESSFUL, THAT YOU WOULD BE ENTITLED TO ANY RECOVERY.
- You will be precluded from bringing any class or representative action against Fox Hunters Club, unless you timely opt out of the application of this Arbitration Agreement, and you will also be precluded from participating in any recovery resulting from any class or representative action brought against Fox Hunters Club, in each case provided you are not already bound by an arbitration agreement and class action waiver previously agreed to with Fox Hunters Club.
WHETHER TO AGREE TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS AN IMPORTANT DECISION. IT IS YOUR DECISION TO MAKE, AND YOU SHOULD TAKE CARE TO CONDUCT FURTHER RESEARCH AND TO CONSULT WITH OTHERS — INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO AN ATTORNEY — REGARDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF YOUR DECISION, JUST AS YOU WOULD WHEN MAKING ANY OTHER IMPORTANT BUSINESS OR LIFE DECISION.
IF FOR ANY REASON THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS FOUND TO BE INVALID, YOU WILL NEVERTHELESS STILL BE BOUND BY ANY PRIOR VALID ARBITRATION AGREEMENT THAT YOU ENTERED INTO WITH FOX HUNTERS CLUB.
Limited One-Time Right To Opt Out Of The Application of the Arbitration Agreement
NOTE: THIS OPT OUT SECTION DOES NOT (a) EXEMPT ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES OF ANY MEMBER FROM THE APPLICATION OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IN THIS SECTION 15, OR (b) APPLY TO ANY MEMBER WHO WHO DID NOT OR DOES NOT, AS APPLICABLE, EXERCISE SUCH MEMBER’S ONE-TIME OPT OUT RIGHT WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MEMBER’S FIRST LOGIN OR USE OF THE SERVICE AFTER SUCH DATE.
SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING PARAGRAPH, IF YOU ARE A MEMBER, YOU MUST OPT OUT OF THE APPLICATION OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WITHIN 30 DAYS AFTER THE FIRST DATE ON WHICH YOU LOGIN TO FOX HUNTERS CLUB OR USE THE SERVICE IN THE FOLLOWING SPECIFIED MANNER:
By sending an email to [email protected] within 30 days after the first date on which you login to Fox Hunters Club or use the Service. The email opt-out must contain the following to be effective: your full name, address, email address and/ or phone number associated with your Fox Hunters Club account, and a statement that you are opting out of the Application of this Arbitration Agreement.
Should you not opt out of the application of this Arbitration Agreement within such 30 day period, you and Fox Hunters Club shall be bound by the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. You have the right to consult with counsel of your choice (at your cost) concerning this Arbitration Agreement. IF YOU OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, YOU WILL STILL BE SUBJECT TO AND BOUND BY ANY PRIOR ARBITRATION AGREEMENTS/ PROVISIONS YOU PREVIOUSLY AGREED TO WITH FOX HUNTERS CLUB AS WELL AS THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A GOING FORWARD BASIS.
16. Governing Law.
Except where our arbitration agreement is prohibited by law, the laws of New Jersey, U.S.A., without regard to its conflict of laws rules, shall apply to any disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Service, or your relationship with Fox Hunters Club. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Arbitration Agreement in Section 15 above shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
17. Venue.
Except for claims that may be properly brought in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction, all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement, to the Service, or to your relationship with Fox Hunters Club that for whatever reason are not submitted to arbitration will be litigated exclusively in the federal or state courts of Hudson County, New Jersey, U.S.A. You and Fox Hunters Club consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of courts in the State of New Jersey and waive any claim that such courts constitute an inconvenient forum.
18. Indemnity by You.
You agree, to the extent permitted under applicable law, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Fox Hunters Club, our affiliates, and their and our respective officers, directors, agents, and employees from and against any and all complaints, demands, claims, damages, losses, costs, liabilities and expenses, including attorney’s fees, due to, arising out of, or relating in any way to your access to or use of the Service, your Content, or your breach of this Agreement.
19. Entire Agreement; Other.
This Agreement, along with the Privacy Policy, and any terms disclosed to you if you purchase or have purchased additional features, products or services we offer on the Service, contains the entire agreement between you and Fox Hunters Club regarding your relationship with Fox Hunters Club and the use of the Service, with the following exception: anyone who opted out of the application of Section 15 is still subject to and bound by any prior agreements to arbitrate with Fox Hunters Club as well as this agreement to arbitrate on a going forward basis. If any provision of this Agreement is held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. The failure of Fox Hunters Club to exercise or enforce any right or provision of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that your Fox Hunters Club account is non-transferable and all of your rights to your account and its Content terminate upon your death. No agency, partnership, joint venture, fiduciary or other special relationship or employment is created as a result of this Agreement and you may not make any representations on behalf of or bind Fox Hunters Club in any manner.
