By accessing, downloading and/or using all or any part of the Zella Life Services, you (“You” and, where applicable, “Your”) indicate Your acceptance of the following terms from Zella Life, Inc. (“Zella Life”). You agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement. You agree that it is enforceable as if it were a written negotiated agreement signed by You. If You do not agree to the terms of this Agreement, You may not access, download and/or use the Zella Life Services. If You are entering into this Agreement on behalf of a company or other legal entity, You hereby represent that You have the authority to bind such entity to this Agreement, in which case the term “You” shall be construed to refer to such entity.

In consideration of the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, You and Zella Life agree as follows:

1. Zella Life Services

Each Order will include the applicable Subscription Period and the associated fees for the Zella Life Services. Each Order must be accepted by Zella Life to become valid. Each Order will be deemed incorporated into this Agreement by reference and made an integral part of this Agreement. To the extent that a conflict arises between the terms and conditions of an Order and the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement will govern.

2. Your Interactions, Restrictions, and Reporting

Your interactions with Zella Life in connection with the Zella Life Services are subject to this Agreement. Zella Life may use any data, information or materials collected or received from You through these interactions, in accordance with this Agreement and the Privacy Policy.

Zella Life may change the pricing for Subscription Terms subsequent to the initial Term (each a “Renewal Term”), in its sole discretion. Either party may terminate this Agreement and any Order hereunder upon immediate effect for any reason whatsoever, notwithstanding Zella Life may terminate this Agreement and any Order hereunder if You violate or breach the Acceptable Use Policy.

Upon any expiration or termination of this Agreement:

Each party represents and warrants that (a) this Agreement is valid, binding and enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, and (b) it will fulfill its obligations under this Agreement in accordance with all applicable laws.

6. Disclaimer

WE ARE NOT A HEALTH CARE OR MEDICAL DEVICE PROVIDER, NOR SHOULD THE SERVICES BE CONSIDERED MEDICAL ADVICE OR THERAPY SERVICES. ONLY YOUR PHYSICIAN OR OTHER HEALTH CARE PROVIDER CAN OFFER MEDICAL ADVICE TO YOU.

EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION, ZELLA LIFE MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. COACHING DOES NOT CONSTITUTE MEDICAL ADVICE OR THERAPY.

ZELLA LIFE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR DELAYS, INTERRUPTIONS, SERVICE FAILURES OR OTHER PROBLEMS INHERENT IN THE USE OF THE INTERNET AND ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS OR OTHER SYSTEMS OUTSIDE THE REASONABLE CONTROL OF ZELLA LIFE.

7. Limitation of Liability

EXCEPT FOR YOUR BREACH OF THE RESTRICTIONS IN SECTION 2 OR YOUR OTHER MISAPPROPRIATION OF ZELLA LIFE’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL:

(B) EITHER PARTY’S ENTIRE LIABILITY TO THE OTHER PARTY WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO ZELLA LIFE DURING THE PRIOR 12 MONTHS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT.

8. Confidentiality

“Confidential Information” is non-public information of a party which is provided to the other party hereunder and which is either designated as confidential or of a type which should be recognized by a commercially reasonable party as confidential.

Confidential Information of Zella Life includes the Services and its related documentation and materials, along with these terms and conditions. The party receiving Confidential Information may use it only for purposes connected with the facilitation of these Terms or Services and may not disclose it to any third party unless such third party is supporting the provision of the Services or otherwise performing obligations hereunder and is bound in writing by confidentiality restrictions substantially similar to those required hereunder.

The obligations to maintain the Confidential Information as confidential shall remain in place for so long as the applicable information is maintained as confidential by the owning party.

9. General Provisions, Arbitration, Governing Law, and Venue

Arbitration

You and Zella Life agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between You and Zella Life arising in connection with or relating in any way to this Agreement or to Your relationship with Zella Life as a user of the Services (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of the Agreement) will be determined by mandatory binding individual arbitration.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED.

Notwithstanding the clause above, You and Zella Life both agree that nothing herein will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to:

bring an individual action in a small claims court,
pursue enforcement actions through applicable federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available,
seek injunctive relief in a court of law, or
file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.

Your arbitration fees and Your share of arbitrator compensation will be limited to those fees set forth in the AAA Rules with the remainder paid by Zella Life.

Venue

This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of California, without resort to its conflict of law provisions.

To the extent that any issues under this Agreement are litigated in court, the state or federal court in San Diego County, California will be the jurisdiction in which any suits should be filed.

Ownership

As between the parties and subject to the grants expressly set forth in this Agreement, Zella Life owns all right, title and interest in and to the Zella Life Services and anonymous/aggregate data, feedback, and any and all patent rights, copyrights, trademark rights, trade secret rights and other intellectual property rights embodied in or related to the foregoing.

Subcontractors

Zella Life may use the services of third-party coaches and other subcontractors and permit them to provide the Zella Life Services.

Privacy

If you are a natural person who is a resident of California (“California Resident”) and use our Services, you have additional rights as set forth in the Privacy Policy.

Third-Party Tools

You acknowledge and agree that the Zella Life Services utilize certain third-party videoconferencing, communications tools and other services in connection with Zella Life Services. While Your data provided to Zella Life through Third-Party Tools remains subject to these terms, use of Third-Party Tools themselves is subject to the terms and conditions of the Third-Party Tool providers. Zella Life is not responsible for the operation of or any changes to the Third-Party Tools or the acts or omissions of Third-Party Tool providers.

Assignment

Zella Life may transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement to any company, firm or person at any time if it does not materially affect Your rights under it. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else. This Agreement is personal to You and no third party is entitled to benefit under this Agreement except as provided here.

We may give notice to You at the e-mail address You provide to us when You register or in any other way. Notices will be deemed given as of the day they are sent by email, messenger, delivery service, or U.S. mail (postage prepaid, certified or registered, return receipt requested), and addressed as set forth below, or to such other address as the party to receive the notice so designates by notice.

Waiver and Severability

A party’s delay or failure to exercise a right or remedy will not result in a waiver of that right or remedy. If a court of competent jurisdiction holds any provision of this Agreement to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under the governing law, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and will be construed so as to most nearly reflect the parties’ intent with respect to such provision.

Changes to Terms

Zella Life may revise these Terms from time to time and at our sole discretion. When such changes are effected, Zella Life will publish an updated version on zellalife.com/terms.

The changes will become effective and will be deemed accepted by You:
(a) immediately for those who register for the Services after the updated version is published on Zella Life’s website, or
(b) for those having pre-existing accounts, the updated Terms will be deemed effective with Your continued use of the Services.

You have rights to dispute an updated term which materially alters Your rights or obligations (with exception to changes required by law) within ten (10) business days from the date of the new Terms being published, upon written notification to: hello@zellalife.com.

If we are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of Your written notification of dispute, the Services will be terminated.

Miscellaneous

This Agreement, including all Orders, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all previous or contemporaneous agreements between the parties, relating to its subject matter, and any change to its terms must be in writing and agreed by each of the parties.
