1. Use of Fit Girls Electronic Publications

a. The Following terms have the following meaning:

i. Fit Girls Electronic Publications. Fit Girls creates publications and other content including, but not limited to, exercise guides, recipe collections, and fitness tips, in electronic format (“Fit Girls Electronic Publications”). The electronic format includes Portable Document Format (“PDF”), eBooks, and any electronic format now known or hereafter developed. Fit Girls licenses, but does not sell, Fit Girls Electronic Publications through the Fit Girls Platform. Fit Girls generally licenses Fit Girls Electronic Publications for Payment (defined below), but, on occasion, Fit Girls licenses Fit Girls Electronic Publications as part of a Fit Girls promotion.

ii. Authorized User. An “Authorized User” is a natural person who has submitted Payment for a license or who qualifies for a promotion to use a Fit Girls Electronic Publication.

b. License to Fit Girls Electronic Publications. Upon sending a copy of a Fit Girls Electronic Publication to an Authorized User, Fit Girls hereby grants the Authorized User the following rights (the “License”), for personal use only, to:

i. Download one copy of the Fit Girls Electronic Publication onto each of the Authorized User’s personal mobile devices, laptop, or other computer;

ii. Make one back-up copy of the Fit Girls Electronic Publication;

iii. Print one hard copy of the Fit Girls Electronic Publication and print an additional hard copy if the previously printed hard copy is destroyed or otherwise rendered unusable; and

iv. Access and view these electronic or hard copies indefinitely or until the license terminates, whichever occurs first.

An Authorized User’s License to use a Fit Girls Electronic Publication automatically terminates when the Authorized User violates any of the terms of the License. Fit Girls reserves all rights to the Fit Girls Electronic Publications (such as rights under intellectual property law) not expressly granted in the License. For example, the License does not grant a right to: (i) use a Fit Girls Electronic Publication for commercial use in any manner; (ii) distribute a Fit Girls Electronic Publication to any person; (iii) modify a Fit Girls Electronic Publication; or (iv) share a Fit Girls Electronic Publication with or display a Fit Girls Electronic Publication to any person.

d. Fit Girls Rights; Enforcement. Use of a Fit Girls Electronic Publication in violation of this License infringes Fit Girls’ rights, including its intellectual property rights. VIOLATION OF FIT GIRLS’ INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS IN FIT GIRLS ELECTRONIC PUBLICATIONS IS A CRIME and may result in civil and criminal liability. Fit Girls may encrypt, force a password, and stamp license details (including customer name, address, order number, etc.) (“Mark”) on Fit Girls Electronic Publications for the purpose of preventing infringement. Fit Girls’ failure to Mark or to enforce its rights in Fit Girls Electronic Publications is not a waiver of Fit Girls’ rights in Fit Girls Electronic Publications.

2. Order and Payment Information.

a. Payments. If you use the Fit Girls Platform or other means to purchase a License, gift code, or other Fit Girls product or service, payment in full of the price required for the purchase of the product or service (“Payment”) must be received by Fit Girls prior to Fit Girls’ acceptance of an order, unless otherwise agreed by Fit Girls. Fit Girls may need to verify information you provide before Fit Girls accepts an order, and may cancel or limit an order any time after it has been placed. If payment has already been made and your order is cancelled or limited, Fit Girls will refund any payment you made for the Fit Girls product or service that will not be sent due to cancellation or limitation of an order in the same tender as the original purchase. Fit Girls expressly conditions its acceptance of your order on your agreement to this Agreement.

b. Pricing. Fit Girls cannot confirm the price of a product or service until you order. Despite our best efforts, items on the Fit Girls Platform may be mispriced.

If you do not receive the product or service sent by email or other electronic means, first check the spam filter to your electronic inbox.

BY USING THE FIT GIRLS PLATFORM, YOU AGREE THAT THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET OUT IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE REASONABLE. IF YOU DO NOT BELIEVE THEY ARE REASONABLE, YOU MUST NOT USE THE FIT GIRLS PLATFORM.

YOU ACCEPT THAT, AS A CORPORATION, FIT GIRLS HAS AN INTEREST IN LIMITING THE PERSONAL LIABILITY OF ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS AND EMPLOYEES. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT BRING ANY CLAIM PERSONALLY AGAINST FIT GIRLS’ OFFICERS, DIRECTORS OR EMPLOYEES IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE, LOSS, OR DAMAGE ARISING OUT OF YOUR USE OF THE FIT GIRLS PLATFORM, A GIFT CODE, THE FIT GIRLS MATERIALS, PRODUCTS (INCLUDING SOFTWARE), OR OTHER SERVICES INCLUDED ON OR OTHERWISE MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU THROUGH THE FIT GIRLS PLATFORM. WITHOUT PREJUDICE TO THE FOREGOING, YOU AGREE THAT THE LIMITATIONS OF WARRANTIES AND LIABILITY SET OUT IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL PROTECT THE FIT GIRLS’ OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, SUCCESSORS, ASSIGNS, AND SUB-CONTRACTORS, AS WELL AS FIT GIRLS.

CERTAIN STATE LAWS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MIGHT HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

16. Indemnification.

You hereby agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Fit Girls, its licensors, and each such party's directors, officers, parent organizations, subsidiaries, affiliates, members, employees, agents, attorneys, independent contractors and vendors from and against any and all claims, losses, expenses, liabilities, damages, or demands (including attorneys' fees and costs incurred), in connection with or resulting from, directly or indirectly: (a) your use of or inability to use the Fit Girls Platform; (b) your violation of this Agreement, (c) your violation of any applicable law or regulation; d) your violation of the rights of another; or (e) Your Content. Fit Girls reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to your indemnification. You will not, in any event, settle any such claim or matter without the prior written consent of Fit Girls.

17. Mutual Arbitration Agreement.

a. Covered Claims. YOU AND FIT GIRLS MUTUALLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS OR DISPUTES, PAST, PRESENT, OR FUTURE, THAT YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST FIT GIRLS OR THAT FIT GIRLS MAY HAVE AGAINST YOU, INCLUDING ANY CLAIM OR DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT OR A VIOLATION OF THIS AGREEMENT, UNLESS SPECIFICALLY EXCLUDED BELOW, SHALL BE DECIDED BY AN ARBITRATOR THROUGH ARBITRATION AND NOT BY A JUDGE OR JURY OR ANY OTHER ADJUDICATORY PROCEEDING (“Arbitration Agreement”). However, the only claims and disputes subject to arbitration are those that, in the absence of this Arbitration Agreement, could be brought under applicable law.

Additionally, the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Arbitration Agreement. However, the preceding sentence shall not apply to the Class Action Waiver described in Section 17(d) below. Regardless of anything else in this Agreement and/or the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) rules or procedures, any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of the Class Action Waiver may only be determined by a court and not an arbitrator.

b. Governing Law. This Arbitration Agreement and this Section 17 are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.) (“FAA”).

c. Excluded Claims and Disputes. You and Fit Girls agree that the following claims or disputes are excluded from and not covered by this Arbitration Agreement: (1) any claim or dispute seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or Fit Girls’ intellectual property rights; (2) individual claims brought in small claims court; (3) any claim that an applicable federal statute expressly states cannot be arbitrated; and (4) any claim for injunctive relief. Additionally, nothing in this Arbitration Agreement prevents the making a report to or filing a claim or charge with a government agency.

d. WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BE A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION. The parties agree to bring any claim or dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not as a class or collective action, and there will be no right or authority for any claim or dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class or collective action ("Class Action Waiver").

e. Rules/Standards Governing Proceeding. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator under the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the "AAA Rules") of the AAA and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website (www.adr.org).

A party who wishes to arbitrate a claim or dispute covered by this Arbitration Agreement must initiate an arbitration proceeding no later than the expiration of the statute of limitations that applicable law prescribes for the claim asserted. The arbitrator shall apply the statute of limitations that would have applied if the claim or dispute had been brought in court. The arbitrator may award any remedy to which a party is entitled under applicable law and this Agreement, but remedies shall be limited to those that would be available to a party in his or her individual capacity. No remedies that otherwise would be available under applicable law will be forfeited. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive federal, state, or local law applicable to the claims asserted. The arbitrator is without authority to apply any different substantive law. The parties have the right to conduct adequate civil discovery and present witnesses and evidence as needed to present their cases and defenses, and any dispute in this regard shall be decided by the arbitrator. The arbitration proceeding shall take place in the city or county where you reside unless each party agrees otherwise. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter judgment upon the arbitrator's decision/award.

The fees for administering the arbitration and your share of arbitrator compensation will be governed by the AAA Rules (and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules). In all cases where required by law, Fit Girls will pay the Arbitrator's fees and the fee for administering the arbitration. If under applicable law Fit Girls is not required to pay all of the arbitrator's and/or arbitration fees, such fee(s) will be apportioned in accordance with applicable law and the AAA Rules and/or AAA Consumer Rules, and any disputes in that regard will be resolved by the arbitrator. Parties are responsible for their own attorney’s fees, subject to any remedies to which that party may later be entitled under applicable law.  

18. Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

Except for the Arbitration Agreement in Section 17, which is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, this Agreement is governed and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State of Illinois, United States of America, without reference to its conflicts of law provisions. For all Disputes not subject to arbitration, you agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located within Cook County, Illinois.

19. Assignment.

This Agreement may not be assigned or transferred by you without Fit Girls’ prior written approval. Fit Girls may assign or transfer this Agreement without your consent, including but not limited to assignments: (i) to a parent or subsidiary corporation, (ii) to an acquirer of assets, or (iii) to any other successor or acquirer. Any assignment in violation of this Section 19 shall be null and void. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of permitted successors and assigns.

d. Survival. All provisions that should by their nature survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement, including without limitation, Sections 1, 11 and 15-23, shall so survive.

21. General Provisions.

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employer-employee, or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.
