Beacon Terms of Service

These Beacon Terms of Service, together with any documents expressly incorporated herein by reference (collectively, these “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you, whether personally or on behalf of an entity, (“you” or “Customer”) and Beacon Technology Solutions Inc., a Delaware corporation (“we,” “our,” “us,” or “Beacon”). You and Beacon may each be referred to as a “Party” or together as the “Parties.”

These Terms apply to your use of any of our products or services including: (a) our hardware products, including without limitation, the smart, Far-UVC disinfection device (the “Beacon System”); and/or (b) our websites, web applications, mobile applications, and all other web services or software associated with the Beacon System (collectively, “Beacon Software”, and together with the Beacon System, our “Services”).

We encourage you to read these Terms before using our Services. By accessing or using any of our Services, you indicate your consent to these Terms and our Privacy Policy, available at https://www.beaconlight.co/privacy-policy (“Privacy Policy”), incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms or our Privacy Policy, you must not access or use any of our Services.

UPON MUTUAL EXECUTION OF AN ORDER FORM, OR ACKNOWLEDGING ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS (E.G., CHECKING A BOX TO ACCEPT THESE TERMS), OR OTHERWISE USING OR ACCESSING ANY OF OUR SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS ON BEHALF OF A LEGAL ENTITY, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO BIND SUCH LEGAL ENTITY AND ITS AFFILIATES TO THESE TERMS.

PLEASE NOTE THAT SECTION 16 CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH US. EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN SECTION 16, THIS PROVISION REQUIRES THAT DISPUTES BE RESOLVED SOLELY THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND NOT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION OR CLASS ACTION.

IF YOU SIGN UP FOR ANY OF OUR SUBSCRIPTION SERVICES, YOU FURTHER AGREE, AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 8, THAT YOUR SUBSCRIPTION MAY AUTOMATICALLY RENEW FOR THE SAME APPLICABLE TERM AND PRICE, UNTIL YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION, INCLUDING IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8.2.

3. Account Registration, Account Protection, and Authorized Users.
   1. Registration. In order to fully utilize the features of the Beacon System, you must set up an account with the Beacon Software and register your Beacon System. The Beacon System will still function without connecting it to the Beacon Software, but the functionality will be severely impaired. To register and use the Beacon Software, you must provide and maintain accurate, current, and complete information, which may include: (i) your name or company’s name (ii) the system serial number or other identifier associated with the Beacon System provided to you, and (iii) your e-mail address. The Beacon Software may allow you to create an account directly through us or by using login credentials from a third party (e.g., Google). If you create an account using third-party login information, you authorize us to access, display, and use certain information from your third-party account. To learn more about the information we collect and how we use it, please visit our Privacy Policy (https://www.beaconlight.co/privacy-policy ).
   2. Account Protection. You are fully responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of the information required to access or make modifications to your account (e.g. passwords, PINs, verification codes), as well as for all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to properly protect your account by all reasonable measures, including exiting from or logging out of your account at the end of each session, by implementing multi-factor authentication if requested by us, and by not sharing your password or multi-factor verification code with any other persons. You further undertake to immediately notify us of unauthorized use of your password or account. In the event we suspect fraudulent activity, we may suspend access to your account and our Services or reset your passwords, pursuant to our security policies to prevent unauthorized access. We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this paragraph.
   3. Authorized Users. You are responsible and liable for all employees, agents, or other persons to whom you provide access (or direct us to provide access) to our Services (such persons, “Authorized Users”), whether such access or use is permitted by or in violation of these Terms. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you are responsible for all acts and omissions of your Authorized Users, and any act or omission by an Authorized User that would constitute a breach of these Terms if taken by you will be deemed a breach of these Terms by you. You shall take reasonable efforts to make all Authorized Users aware of the provisions of these Terms and shall cause Authorized Users to comply with such provisions. You will use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent unauthorized access to or use of the Beacon Software and notify us promptly of any such unauthorized access or use or any other known or suspected breach of security or misuse of our Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you are responsible and liable for all users of our Services resulting from access provided by you, directly or indirectly, whether such access or use is permitted by or in violation of these Terms.
4. Your Content.
   1. General. You or your Authorized Users may choose to provide, post, input, submit, or otherwise make accessible to us, data or information about you, your employees, customers, or any third party or equipment (the “Content”), and we may store such Content on your behalf, all in connection with your use of our Services. Content includes any information or data you provide in our website, web applications, mobile applications, or other software, as well as data that is collected in connection with your use of the Beacon System. You hereby provide us and our service providers, agents, sub-contractors, representatives, and agents a royalty-free, irrevocable, non-exclusive right to use, process, upload, display, copy, distribute copies of, perform, transform and store Content, for the purposes of providing our Services or otherwise in accordance with these Terms. We have the right to remove or refuse to post any Content for any or no reason in our sole discretion and to take appropriate legal action, including without limitation, referral to law enforcement, for any illegal or unauthorized use of our Services.
   2. Content Representations. You represent and warrant that (a) you own all Content or have all rights that are necessary to grant us and our affiliates and our directors, employees, service providers, licensors, sub-contractors, representatives, agents, and anyone on our behalf (the “Related Parties”) the licensed rights in the Content under these Terms; (b) your collection and provision of Content has and will be in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, including, without limitation, those concerning data or information privacy; and (c) neither the Content, nor the inclusion of it in or use in connection with our Services, will infringe, misappropriate or violate any Intellectual Property Rights, or violate the privacy rights of any third party, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation, including without limitation those concerning data or information privacy. “Intellectual Property Rights” means any and all registered and unregistered rights granted, applied for, or otherwise now or hereafter in existence under or related to any patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, database protection, or other intellectual property rights laws, and all similar or equivalent rights or forms of protection, in any part of the world.
   3. Data Protection. To the extent permitted under applicable law, we shall maintain generally accepted industry safeguards to protect the security and confidentiality of your Content. We will maintain any personally identifiable information that we collect and/or receive in connection with our Services in accordance with our Privacy Policy (https://www.beaconlight.co/privacy-policy ).
   4. Reviews and Submissions: By submitting feedback, reviews, or comments, you grant Beacon a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, and irrevocable right to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, and distribute such content in any media, including for marketing purposes, while retaining your right to be credited or, if preferred, remaining anonymous
   5. Legal Enforcement. You acknowledge and agree that we have the right to fully cooperate with any law enforcement or governmental authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity or other information of anyone posting any Content or other materials on or through our Services. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE AND HOLD HARMLESS BEACON AND ITS RELATED PARTIES FROM ANY CLAIMS RESULTING FROM ANY ACTION TAKEN BY ANY OF THE FOREGOING PARTIES DURING OR AS A RESULT OF ANY INVESTIGATIONS AND FROM ANY ACTIONS TAKEN AS A CONSEQUENCE OF INVESTIGATIONS BY EITHER SUCH PARTIES OR LAW ENFORCEMENT OR GOVERNMENTAL AUTHORITIES.
5. Third-Party Content and Applications.
   1. Third-Party Content. Our Services may link to or give you the ability to access, use or integrate directly with third-party websites, apps, products, content, or other media controlled by third parties ("Third-Party Content"). We do not operate, control or endorse any Third-Party Content and are not responsible for and have no control over any Third-Party Content. Further, we do not guarantee the safety, accuracy, legality, or effectiveness of the Third-Party Content, and we will have no responsibility for any Third-Party Content including material that may be misleading, incomplete, erroneous, offensive, indecent or otherwise objectionable, or may otherwise cause you harm, damages, or other loss. You agree to assume all risks in connection with your interaction or use of any Third-Party Content and that we will have no liability to you or anyone else who uses our Services with regard to any Third-Party Content. You are responsible for reading and understanding the terms and conditions and privacy notice or privacy policy that applies to your use of Third-Party Content.
   2. Third-Party Applications. When you use a third-party application, the application may ask for your permission to access your Content and information to enable the application to work as intended. Your agreement with the provider of that application will control how the application can use, store, delete, and transfer that Content and information, so be sure to thoroughly read any such application’s terms of service and only use applications from trusted providers.
6. Order Forms.
   1. General. In certain instances (eg, for business customers), you may enter into an Order Form (defined below) with us under which you will have additional rights and obligations. In such cases these Terms are incorporated by reference in such Order Form. For the purposes of these Terms, the term “Order Form” means our current order form that you enter into with us in connection with the use of our Services. The Parties may agree to use another form of document or instrument to record their agreement on certain commercial terms, but such other forms and instruments shall bind Beacon only if executed by an authorized officer of Beacon; provided however, that in any event whatsoever, any pre-printed/boilerplate terms in such forms issued by the Customer to Beacon (for administrative, accounting or other purposes) will be null and void and shall not have any effect on the Parties’ rights, and these Terms shall prevail. For the avoidance of doubt, these Terms specifically supersede, exclude, and disavow any terms or conditions provided by you or any legal entity you represent in any invoice, purchase order, receipt, acknowledgement or other form or document, and all such terms and conditions are void and without effect.
   2. Conflicts. Any mutually agreed Order Form shall be deemed an integral part of these Terms, and these Terms shall apply thereto. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between these Terms and the applicable Order Form (or such other instrument recording agreement on commercial terms), the terms of the applicable Order Form (or such other instrument) shall prevail solely if (a) the applicable Order Form (or such other instrument) expressly identifies and supersedes or modifies a specific provision in these Terms; and (b) the applicable Order Form (or such other instrument) is signed by an authorized signatory of both Parties.
7. Activation and Trials.
   1. Activation. To activate our Services, you must affirmatively take certain steps, including registering for an account and following the steps provided in the Beason Software. SOME OF OUR SERVICES REQUIRE AN ONGOING SUBSCRIPTION THAT WILL CONTINUE UNTIL YOU CANCEL THE SUBSCRIPTION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIESE TERMS OR IF WE TERMINATE THE RELATED SERVICE. You agree to pay your subscription fee in advance. Your subscription period is stated in your Beacon subscription plan, which you may view in an Order Form or by logging into your account. We may offer multiple subscription plans with varying levels and services. Your subscription fee will cover our Services provided in your selected Beacon subscription plan.
   2. Free Trials and Promotions. Your subscription may start with a free trial or promotional subscription fee that automatically converts to a full-priced paid subscription upon expiration of the trial or promotional period. If so, UNLESS YOU CANCEL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PRIOR TO THE END OF THE FREE TRIAL OR PROMOTIONAL PERIOD, WE WILL BEGIN BILLING YOUR PAYMENT METHOD ON A RECURRING BASIS FOR YOUR SUBSCRIPTION FEE (PLUS ANY APPLICABLE TAXES) UPON EXPIRATION OF THE FREE TRIAL OR PROMOTIONAL PERIOD UNTIL YOU CANCEL OR WE TERMINATE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION. You may not receive a notice from us that your free trial or promotional period has ended or that the paid portion of your subscription has begun. We reserve the right, in our absolute discretion, to determine your free trial and promotional offer eligibility.
8. Subscription Payment, Automatic Renewal, Cancellation, Price Changes and Refund Policy.
   1. Subscription Payment. To sign up for a subscription, complete the required registration details on the Beacon Software, including without limitation selecting your method of payment. If you choose a subscription option with recurring payments (e.g. monthly and annual subscriptions) you agree that we may automatically charge the subscription fee to the payment method provided and associated with your account at the beginning of each period at the frequency you have selected unless and until you cancel the subscription. If you signed up at a promotional rate, any renewals past the promotional period will be charged at the then effective subscription fee. Access to our Services will not be established until we or our payment agent has verified that the payment method is valid, accurate, and in good standing. You also acknowledge that the amount billed may vary due to promotional offers, changes to your subscription or changes in applicable taxes or other charges. You authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge your payment method for the corresponding amount.
   2. Automatic Renewal and Cancellation of Subscriptions. Your subscription will continue and automatically renew until cancelled. If you want to cancel a subscription, you must cancel prior to the subscription fee being charged to the payment method provided for the cancellation to be effective. You may cancel your subscription by clicking on the cancel subscription link in your Beacon account settings within the Beacon Software or by contacting the Support Center at support@beaconlight.co.Cancellation will take effect on the day following the end of your current subscription period. If you purchased the paid subscription through a third party, you should cancel it directly through the third party whenever possible.
   3. Price Changes. We may, at our reasonable discretion, change the subscription fee and prices for our Services from time to time. All price changes will take effect no earlier than 30 days after we notify you and at the beginning of the next billing cycle for your subscription. If you are dissatisfied with the fee changes or additional charges, you may terminate your use of our Services in accordance with these Terms.
   4. Refund Policy. Unless specifically noted otherwise in these Terms, subscription fees are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used subscription periods. Following any termination of a subscription, however, you will continue to have access to the relevant Service through the end of your current billing period.
   5. Returned Payment. We may suspend or terminate our Services without notice upon rejection of any charges to your payment method or if your card issuer (or its agent or affiliate) seeks the return of payments previously made to us for our Services. You agree we may charge interest at 1.5% monthly interest or that highest interest rate allowed by law, whichever is less, on all amounts due that remain unpaid for 30 days or more. Such rights are in addition to and not in lieu of any other legal rights or remedies available to us. We may refer your account to a third party for collection in the event of ongoing default.
   6. Taxes. All fees payable hereunder, do not include local, state, or federal sales, use, excise, personal property, VAT or other taxes, customs and duties, including, without limitation, any withholding tax. Any such taxes, to the extent legally applicable, shall be borne and paid by you. You will pay all applicable taxes when invoiced by us or will supply appropriate tax exemption certificates in a form satisfactory to us. In cases wherein you are legally required to withhold any income or remittance tax from amounts payable to us, then (a) you will promptly notify us; (b) the amounts payable to us will be automatically increased to the full extent required to offset such tax, so that the amount remitted to us, net of all taxes, equals the amount stated in the invoice; and (c) you will provide us with the official receipt of payment of such taxes to the appropriate taxing authority.
9. System Requirements and Installation.
   1. System Requirements. In order to fully utilize the features of the Beacon System, you must: (i) enable Wi-Fi or other communications network in the location where the Beacon System is installed as further described in the setup instructions; (ii) set up a Beacon account; (iii) connect a wireless device, such as a phone or tablet; and (iv) ensure consistent broadband Internet access with bandwidth sufficient to support the Beacon System you use. The Beacon System will still function without the above, but the functionality will be severely impaired. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have all required system elements and that they are compatible and properly configured. You are responsible for any service charges for your internet connection or data plan incurred as a result of using or accessing our Services, and you acknowledge and agree that you will be solely responsible for all disputes with any internet service or mobile phone provider relating to the same.
   2. Customers’ Duty to Correctly Install and Maintain. It is your responsibility to install the Beacon System in strict accordance with the instructions and specifications provided to you. If the Beacon System is improperly installed or not properly configured, or is outside the detection area or blocked by walls, furniture, personal property or other objects, then it could result in false sensor event triggers or errors in event detection. Sensors are secondary measures and should not replace conventional health and safety practices. It is your responsibility to inspect and maintain your Beacon System and other devices after installation is complete and periodically thereafter. It is also your responsibility to replace the batteries, if applicable, when necessary.
10. Updates.
    1. Authorized Updates. By using our Services, you agree to receive all software updates and upgrades that Beacon sends to your Beacon System. These updates and upgrades may be automatically installed without providing any additional notice or receiving any additional consent. You consent to this automatic update. If you disable the automatic update and upgrade feature of our Services, then certain functionality of our Services may be adversely impacted. Even if you disable the automatic upgrade feature of your Beacon System, we may still implement critical Beacon System updates, updates for Beacon applications running on your mobile device, tablet, and similar devices, and Beacon back-end service updates. If your Beacon System accesses Beacon Software (regardless of your payment or subscription status) you acknowledge and agree that you are a user of our Services and are bound by the provisions of these Terms.
    2. No Obligation. Notwithstanding the previous paragraph, Beacon is not obligated to make any updates available. Specifically, Beacon may not make the same updates available to all Beacon Systems and may discontinue updates to products that have reached their Beacon-designated end of lives. Beacon does not guarantee that it will support the version of the system or device for which you purchased or licensed the software, apps, content, or other products. Beacon may stop supporting devices or operating systems that it previously supported.
11. Changes to Our Services. We are under no obligation to provide any or all features and functionality to our Services and may, at our discretion, discontinue the provision of software updates to certain of our Services. Because different Beacon Systems may support different features and functionality, the level of service we provide may not be the same for each Beacon System. Furthermore, we may change any part of our Services at any time, including without limitation for the following reasons: for legal or regulatory reasons; for security reasons; for privacy reasons; to enhance existing features; to add additional features or functionality; to remove features or functionality; to prevent misuse or abuse; to reflect changes or advancements in technology; to make business model adjustments; to make subscription fee changes; and to ensure the ongoing operability of our Services. If you reject these changes, you may cancel your subscription to our Services at any time, in accordance with these Terms. Regardless of any changes to our Services, any increase in the applicable subscription fee will not apply before the end of your current subscription period.
12. Account Termination.
    1. Termination Requests. You may request termination of your account and your right to use our Services at any time by contacting the Support Center at support@beaconlight.co. Any unused Services fees, including subscription fees, may not be refundable under this method of termination. Upon termination of your account, certain information may not immediately be deleted from our or our agents’ systems, including without limitation log entries, diagnostics, analytics coming from devices tied to the user or account, transaction details of the account, or information subject to litigation holds, search warrants, subpoenas, or other legal process. Please note that deleting the Beacon application does not automatically terminate any subscriptions or fees for which you may be liable. To cancel a subscription, please follow the instructions above. Also note that terminating your account may not automatically terminate any active paid subscriptions if you signed up using a third party (such as on the Apple App Store or Google Play Store). To terminate any subscriptions with which you signed up via a third party, you should follow the instructions provided by such third party.
    2. Our Rights. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms, we retain the absolute right to immediately terminate your account if there is a justified reason to do so, such reason including if you or any Authorized Users are in breach of applicable laws, these Terms, applicable contractual provisions, or our guidelines or policies. We may also terminate your account if you misuse our Services or alter your Beacon System other than as instructed by us, use our Services in such a manner as to infringe upon the Intellectual Property Rights of Beacon and/or its subsidiaries and affiliates or any third party, if your account is inactive for an extended period, or if we are required to under a court order or governmental decree. Upon any such termination of your account initiated by us, you will remain obligated to pay all outstanding fees and charges relating to your use of our Services before termination, and we will give you a pro-rated refund of any of your paid-for, but unused, Services fees that will remain unused because of our termination under this method of termination. Termination of our Services may result in the forfeiture, deletion, and destruction of all information associated with your subscription or our Services, including Content.
13. Representations.
    1. General. Each Party represents and warrants that: (a) it has full power to enter into these Terms and to grant to the other Party the rights granted to such other Party under these Terms; (b) it has obtained all necessary corporate approvals to enter into and execute these Terms; and (c) its entering into these Terms and its performance of obligations under these Terms will not in any way conflict or violate any duty that it may have to any other person or entity, or under any agreement, commitment on its part, order, judgment, decree, rule, regulation or law to which such party is bound.
    2. Compliance with Laws. Each Party shall comply with all applicable laws relating in any way to its performance of its obligations under these Terms. You further agree to fully comply with all applicable export laws and regulations in any jurisdiction to ensure that neither our Services nor any technical data related thereto are exported or re-exported directly or indirectly in violation of, or used for any purposes prohibited by, such laws and regulations.
14. Intellectual Property.
    1. Beacon Property. Our Services, trademarks, and System Data (defined below), all reproductions, corrections, modifications, enhancements and improvements thereto, and all data related to your usage thereof, and all Intellectual Property Rights therein or relating thereto, including but not limited to, any modifications or custom features to our Services to be developed by us for your benefit, whether requested or instructed by you or not, are and will remain the exclusive property of us or our third-party licensors. Any rights therein not explicitly granted to you hereunder, are reserved to and shall remain solely and exclusively proprietary of us (or our third-party licensors).
    2. Your Property. As between you and us, you retain exclusive ownership of the Content. With respect to Content (including all related Intellectual Property Rights) you submit or make available for our Services, you grant us the following worldwide, royalty-free, nonexclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, sublicensable, and transferable license(s), as applicable: the license to use, store, delete, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, make derivative works of, publicly perform, and publicly display such Content on our Services and other third-party platforms in connection with providing you our Services, as permitted through the functionality of our Services and under these Terms.
    3. Feedback. Any error or bug reports, additional features, ideas, requests, feedback, recommendations, comments, concepts, and other requests or suggestions related to our Services (collectively, “Feedback”) that you may provide to us, will be solely owned by us. You hereby irrevocably assign and transfer any Intellectual Property Rights in such Feedback to us for no additional consideration.
    4. System Data. In connection with providing our Services, we may collect, disclose, publish, and use in any manner anonymous information which is derived from our Services and/or the Content (i.e., non-identifiable information, aggregated and analytics information) (“System Data”) to provide and improve our Services, our products and services, and for any other legitimate business purpose.
15. Confidentiality.
    1. Definition. “Confidential Information” means any information in any form or medium (whether oral, written, electronic, or other) disclosed or otherwise made available by one Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Receiving Party”), including but not limited to, information consisting of or relating to the Disclosing Party’s technology, trade secrets, know-how, business operations, plans, strategies, customers, pricing, and other information with respect to which the Disclosing Party has contractual or other confidentiality obligations, in each case whether or not marked, designated, or otherwise identified as confidential, but excluding System Data. Without limiting the foregoing, the Content is your Confidential Information, our Services is our Confidential Information, and the terms of these Terms are Confidential Information of both you and us.
    2. Confidentiality Obligations. The Receiving Party will not use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information except as necessary for the performance or enforcement of these Terms and will not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party except to those of its employees, subcontractors, and agents who have a bona fide need to know such Confidential Information for the performance or enforcement of these Terms; provided, that each such employee, subcontractor, and agent is bound by a written agreement or other obligation that contains use and disclosure restrictions consistent with the terms set forth in this Section 15. The Receiving Party will protect the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information from unauthorized use and disclosure using efforts equivalent to the efforts that the Receiving Party ordinarily uses with respect to its own confidential information and in no event less than a reasonable standard of care. The provisions of this Section 15 will remain in effect during the term of these Terms and for a period of three (3) years after the expiration or termination of these Terms (except for obligations with respect to any Confidential Information that constitutes a trade secret, which shall remain in effect so long as such Confidential Information remains a trade secret under applicable law). Notwithstanding the above, either Party may confidentially disclose the terms of these Terms to actual or potential lenders, investors, or acquirers.
    3. Exclusions. The use and nondisclosure obligations and restrictions set forth in Section 15 will not apply to any information that: (a) is or becomes generally known to the public through no breach of these Terms by the Receiving Party; (b) is rightfully known by the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure; (c) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without use of or access to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or (d) the Receiving Party rightfully obtains from a third party who has the right to disclose such information without breach of any confidentiality obligation to the disclosing party.
    4. Governmental Orders. The provisions of this Section 15 will not restrict either Party from disclosing Confidential Information pursuant to the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body; provided, that the Party required to make such a disclosure gives reasonable notice to the other Party to enable it to contest such order or requirement or limit the scope of such request. The Party responding to such an order or requirement will only disclose that information that is expressly required.
    5. Equitable Relief. The Receiving Party acknowledges that the disclosure of Confidential Information may cause substantial harm to the Disclosing Party that could not be remedied by the payment of damages alone. Accordingly, the Disclosing Party will be entitled to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive relief and other equitable relief in any relevant jurisdiction for any breach of this Section 15 or misuse of Confidential Information by the Receiving Party.
16. DISPUTE RESOLUTION BY BINDING ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER. PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.
    1. SUMMARY. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND BEACON ARE EACH AGREEING TO ARBITRATE ALL DISPUTES ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND ARE THEREFORE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
    2. BINDING ARBITRATION. To the extent possible under applicable law, both you and Beacon agree to arbitrate any and all disputes or claims out of or relating to these Terms, any of our Services, or your relationship to Beacon. All disputes concerning whether a claim is subject to arbitration (including disputes about the interpretation, breach, applicability, enforceability, revocability, or validity of these Terms) will be decided by the arbitrator. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury to resolve claims. Arbitration is less formal than a traditional court proceeding, and the arbitrator’s decision is subject to limited review by courts.
    3. JAMS. The arbitration will be governed and administered by the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and consumer contract disputes, who will be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of JAMS. In the event ten (10) or more demands for arbitration that share common factual or legal issues are filed by the same counsel or counsel acting in coordination with one another, the JAMS Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines then in effect, including as related to initial filing fees, will also apply. The right to arbitration under these Terms is protected by, and any arbitration will also be governed by, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.). Both you and Beacon agree that the Parties’ relationship involves interstate commerce. Judgment upon the award so rendered may be entered in a court having jurisdiction, or application may be made to such court for judicial acceptance of any award and an order of enforcement, as the case may be. Specifically excluded from application to these Terms is that law known as the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods.
    4. EXCEPTIONS TO ARBITRATION. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Party will have the right to institute an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable relief pending a final decision by the arbitrator. For all purposes of these Terms, for any dispute between the Parties that is not subject to arbitration, the Parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the United States Federal Courts located in the Northern District of Illinois.
    5. CLASS ACTION WAIVER. The Parties agree that they both give up the right to a jury trial, and that each may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action lawsuit: CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED.
    6. OPTIONAL CLAUSE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER ARE OPTIONAL. You may decline or opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by sending written and signed notice to support@beaconlight.co within thirty (30) calendar days of agreeing to these Terms.

THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS CUMULATIVE, WITH ALL PAYMENTS FOR CLAIMS OR DAMAGES IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS BEING AGGREGATED TO DETERMINE SATISFACTION OF THE LIMIT. THE EXISTENCE OF ONE OR MORE CLAIMS SHALL NOT ENLARGE THE LIMIT.

Some states and countries do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

The Customer agrees that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action it may have arisen out of or related to the use of our Services or otherwise under these Terms must be filed within two (2) years after such claim or cause of action arose or the Customer hereby agrees to be forever barred from bringing such claims.

These Terms of Service shall not confer any rights or remedies upon any person or entity on behalf of the Customer other than the Customer.
