6. OFFERS

Genbook may make available to you the ability to create special promotional offers for your business, including without limitation for last minute bookings, which Genbook may provide to consumers through the Services on your behalf (collectively, “Offers”). If you create an Offer through our Services, you authorize Genbook to promote and distribute Offers on your behalf in accordance with these Terms of Use and subject to the Offer Program Terms of Sale. You are the seller of any Offer that you create through our Services. If a consumer purchases your Offer, we will send the Offer to the purchaser electronically once payment is made. The purchaser then may redeem the Offer from you by scheduling an appointment online through the Service using a unique link or over the phone using a unique identifier provided by Genbook. Genbook will pay you pursuant to Section 11 (Customer Payments) below.

You shall be responsible for all customer service in connection with the Offer (except with respect to the operation of our websites) and for supplying all goods and services specified in the Offer and any customer loyalty programs, if any, associated with the Offer.

You will be able to select the maximum number of total Offers that you wish to promote and sell through the Services (“Total Offer Maximum”). Genbook uses commercially reasonable technical safeguards to monitor and enforce the Total Offer Maximum, but we cannot guarantee that unauthorized third parties will never defeat our security measures, or that our Services will at all times be capable of monitoring or enforcing the Total Offer Maximum.

When creating your Offer, you will be able to select an expiration date for the promotional value of the Offer (“Promotional Value Expiration”) or you may choose to indicate that the Offer never expires. Genbook reserves the continuing right, but shall not be obligated, to reject, revise, or discontinue promoting any Offer and to conform any Offer to our specifications or applicable law.

You will be able to indicate the promotional value of your Offers for which consumers may redeem from you (“Promotional Value”) from the date of purchase through the Promotional Value Expiration (if any). You will also be able set the cost of your Offers to be paid by consumers upon purchasing Offers (“Paid Value”). You will honor the Offers for their Promotional Value through the Promotional Value Expiration (if any). After the Promotional Value Expiration, you shall honor the Offer for at least the Paid Value. If, after the Promotional Value Expiration, the goods and services specified by the Offer are no longer available, you must allow the customer to redeem the Paid Value toward any goods or services then offered by you. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT, NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING CONTAINED IN THESE TERMS OF USE OR PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU WILL CONTINUE TO HONOR THE OFFER FOR THE PAID VALUE INDEFINITELY.

You agree that so long as an appointment is made by a customer for the redemption of an Offer before the Offer’s Promotional Value Expiration, the Offer will be honored for the full Promotional Value without restriction, even though the services may be provided after the Promotional Value Expiration.

Partial redemptions: If applicable, and if a customer redeems an Offer for less than the Paid Value, you will be responsible for handling any unredeemed value as required by applicable law.

You agree that in providing the goods or services that are the subject of the Offer, you will not impose any extra or additional fees, charges, conditions or restrictions that contradict or are inconsistent with the terms set forth on the face of the Offer, including the Offer-Specific Terms.

11. CUSTOMER PAYMENTS

Genbook may offer you, as part of the Services, the ability to request and collect payments (including payments for Offers), take deposits, and capture credit card details for later processing from your customers (collectively, “Customer Payments”). The Services relating to Customer Payments are integrated with various third party products and services, including, currently, mobile point-of-sale acceptance solutions (e.g., credit card readers) from Genbook’s third party partners”). These third party products and services may have their own terms of service, conditions and policies (including privacy policies), and your use of these third party products and services will be subject to and governed by those terms of service, conditions and policies (including privacy policies). In addition, such third party’s warranties, covenants and indemnities with Genbook do not extend to you or your use of the Services. You agree, however, to respect all such third party’s rights and requirements relating to such products and services.

In connection with Customer Payments, in addition to point-of-sale solutions, Genbook uses third party payment processors to process Customer Payments. In order to receive Customer Payments you must register with an authorized third party payment processor as determined by Genbook in its sole discretion. The processing of Customer Payments will be subject to the standard terms of service and policies of such authorized third party payment processor, and Genbook (including these Terms of Use and Genbook’s Privacy Policy). Genbook may notify you of any such authorized third party payment processor (or the un-authorization of any third party payment processor) from time to time. You represent and warrant that any information you provide to such third party payment processor is truthful, accurate, and current. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for ensuring that any such information is current, and that you may not be able to receive Customer Payments if you fail to so inform such third party payment processor of any changes to your information, or otherwise provide inaccurate information. You further acknowledge that Genbook and such third party payment processor are not liable for any missed payments due to your failure to provide accurate and current information in connection with the information that you provide to such authorized third party payment processor. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any payment processor fees, credit card transaction fees, currency conversion fees, or any other fees charged by any third party payment processor for the purpose of transferring payments to you.

Genbook does not control and is not liable for third party products and services that are integrated with the Services, including credit card readers and the payment processing services utilized by you. YOU AGREE THAT GENBOOK IS NOT A MONEY SERVICE BUSINESS OR PAYMENT PROCESSOR AND THAT GENBOOK WILL NOT BE LIABLE, AND YOU AGREE NOT TO SEEK TO HOLD GENBOOK LIABLE, FOR THE CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY CUSTOMER PAYMENTS, OR ANY PAYMENT PROCESSING ACTIVITIES, OR THE SECURITY OR PERFORMANCE OF ANY THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY ERRORS MADE BY SUCH THIRD PARTY PRODUCTS OR SERVICES. Your and your customers’ data security when using third party products and services integrated with the Services (including credit card readers and the payment processing services provided from authorized third party payment processors) is your responsibility. YOU AGREE TO IMPLEMENT ALL NECESSARY DATA AND INFORMATION SECURITY MEASURES IN ACCORDANCE WITH BEST INDUSTRY PRACTICES IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR PROCESSING OF CUSTOMER PAYMENTS AND FOR ALL DATA OF YOUR CUSTOMERS RESIDING ON OR PROCESSED BY DEVICES AND SYSTEMS OWNED, CONTROLLED OR OPERATED BY YOU. YOU AGREE NOT TO USE, DISCLOSE, SELL OR DISSEMINATE ANY INFORMATION OR DATA OBTAINED BY YOU IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROCESSING OF A CUSTOMER PAYMENT TO ANY THIRD PARTY OTHER THAN AN AUTHORIZED THIRD PARTY PAYMENT PROCESSOR, IN EACH CASE ONLY AS NECESSARY TO FACILITATE A CUSTOMER PAYMENT TRANSACTION. You agree that neither Genbook nor any authorized third party payment processor will be liable to you for any payments improperly processed by you, or any unauthorized, illegal or fraudulent access to your information technology systems (including any personal information, transaction data, passwords, account IDs or passwords stored therein) by a third party. You are solely liable for any and all applicable local, state, or federal taxes associated with Customer Payments.

You may opt-out of receiving notifications regarding appointments through the Services by logging into your account and changing the notification settings; opting-out of such notifications, however, will limit the effectiveness of the Services. You may not opt-out of receiving notifications relating to support of the Services or other notices as required by law.

You consent that any emails, surveys, other information or feedback you provide to Genbook through the Services or via any other medium, except for Personally Identifiable Information, as defined in the Genbook Privacy Policy, can be used by Genbook in any manner, including but not limited to for testimonials, reviews and ratings on Genbook or third party websites.

READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM GENBOOK.

The arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco County, California, unless you and Genbook agree otherwise. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall be deemed as preventing Genbook from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to protect any of Genbook’s proprietary interests. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS TERMS OF SERVICE, YOU AND GENBOOK ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.

The section headings used are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal significance.

27. NO WAIVER

A lack of enforcement will not result in waiver of any term. Also, no waiver by either party of any breach or default shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent default.

28. INDEMNIFICATION
