2. Services Overview, Availability, and Eligibility

Services Overview. Our mission is to empower family caregivers to provide the best possible care for their loved ones by providing education, advocacy, and access to overlooked, underutilized and virtually unknown financial services and money-earning opportunities and other resources, benefits, and community support.

Third-Party Offers Available Through the Services. By creating an account and using the Services, you will be eligible to earn coupons, discounts, credits, and other offers through the Services (“Offers”). Offers are for products and services provided by third parties (each a “Seller”), and if you choose to accept an Offer, the transaction will be between you and the Seller. RubyWell is not a party to, or in any way responsible for, your interactions with a Seller, including when we have an affiliate relationship with the Seller. We are also not responsible for fulfilling Offers or for the products and services in an Offer. Before you purchase a product or service or otherwise accept an Offer, please read the entire description of the Offer, including the fine print and any additional information, terms and conditions on the Seller’s website. You are responsible for understanding what you are buying and for following the Seller’s instructions. The terms and conditions of Offers, including rebate, refund and cancellation policies, are governed by the Seller’s policies, not ours. Please contact the Seller directly for questions regarding the Offer or your transaction with the Seller.

Your Caregiver Relationship with Home Health Agencies. You may be eligible to use the Services to connect with a home health agency (“HHA”) that may provide you with an opportunity to earn compensation for the services you provide as a caregiver. You acknowledge and agree that:

HHAs have the sole responsibility to determine whether you are eligible to perform services as a caregiver and earn compensation.
You have sole and absolute discretion to choose whether to enter into an arrangement with an HHA.
All information and documentation you provide to us is accurate, complete, genuine, verifiable, and is not fabricated or manipulated in any way. You warrant that any document you upload into your profile is an original, legitimate, and verifiable document and you attest that the document is exactly what it appears to represent.
We may provide a copy of information you provide to us to the relevant HHA for purposes of the HHA evaluating whether you are eligible to perform services as a caregiver.
You may be required to complete additional training and/or earn certifications prior to becoming eligible to enter into an arrangement with an HHA and earn compensation. While the Services may facilitate your access to such training programs, we do not provide such training and are not responsible for any training content or issuing certifications.
You are responsible for maintaining any certifications and equipment you incur in the processing of providing services to any HHA.
You will be required to enter into a separate agreement with the applicable HHA in order to receive compensation for services you provide as a caregiver.
We do not dictate the performance, methods, or process by which you provide caregiving services on behalf of an HHA.
We are not responsible for paying or facilitating payment of any compensation owed to you by the applicable HAA.
Nothing in these Terms will be deemed as creating an agency, employment, joint venture, or partnership relationship between you and us.

If you disagree with these Terms, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue your use of the Services. Your continued use after a change has been posted constitutes your acceptance of the changes.

You acknowledge and agree that: (1) all or any part of the Services may not be accessible at any time, for any period, or for any reason; and (2) RubyWell will not be liable if for any reason all or any part of the Services are unavailable at any time or for any period. RubyWell reserves the right at any time and for any reason to modify, or temporarily or permanently discontinue, the Services or any portion thereof, with or without notice. You agree that RubyWell shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuance of the Services.

You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing, and you consent and agree that your use of your finger, a keypad, mouse, or other device to select an item, button, icon, or similar act while using the Services, or in accessing or making any transactions regarding any agreement, acknowledgment, consent, terms, disclosures, or conditions, constitutes your signature, acceptance, and agreement as if actually signed by you in writing. You should maintain copies of electronic communications from us by printing a paper copy, saving an electronic copy, or both. Further, you agree that no certification authority or other third-party verification is necessary to establish the validity of your electronic signature, and that the lack of such certification or third-party verification will not affect the enforceability of your signature or any resulting contract between you and us.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. RUBYWELL AND ITS AFFILIATES, AND EACH OF ITS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MANAGERS, PARTNERS, MEMBERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS (COLLECTIVELY “RELATED PERSONS”) MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR USE OR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT, TITLE, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, OPERABILITY, CONDITION, QUIET ENJOYMENT, VALUE, ACCURACY OF DATA, FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR MALWARE, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, FUNCTIONALITY, RELIABILITY, SEQUENCING OR SPEED OF DELIVERY OR SYSTEM INTEGRATION.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NEITHER RUBYWELL NOR ITS RELATED PERSONS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE CAUSED BY YOUR RELIANCE ON INFORMATION OBTAINED THROUGH THE SERVICES. IT IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO EVALUATE THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, RELIABILITY, OR USEFULNESS OF THE SERVICES, SERVICES CONTENT, AND USER CONTENT. FURTHERMORE, RUBYWELL DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, OR FREE FROM ERROR, DEFECT, LOSS, DELAY IN OPERATION, CORRUPTION, CYBER ATTACK, VIRUSES, INTERFERENCE, HACKING, MALWARE, OR OTHER SECURITY INTRUSION, AND RUBYWELL DISCLAIMS ANY LIABILITY RELATING THERETO.

15. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Venue; Severability

IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND RUBYWELL TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN US THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM RUBYWELL. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND RUBYWELL ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Governing Law. These Terms and your use of the Services shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflict of laws. Subject to the requirement to arbitrate set forth in this Section 15, exclusive jurisdiction for all disputes that do not require arbitration will be the state and federal courts located in New York, New York, and you consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

Informal Dispute Resolution. You agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute, claim or controversy (whether involving contract, tort, equitable, statutory, or any other legal theory) with any of us arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (“Dispute”) informally by contacting legal@rubywell.com with a description of the Dispute. If we cannot resolve your Dispute informally within 30 days, you and we each agree to a dispute resolution process requiring individual arbitration as set forth in this section.

AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. You agree that any Disputes that you and any of us are unable to resolve informally will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right: (i) to bring an individual action in small claims court and (ii) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights (the action described in the foregoing clause (ii), an “IP Protection Action”). You will also have the right to litigate any other Dispute if you provide us with written notice to opt out of arbitration (“Arbitration Opt-out Notice”) by email at legal@rubywell.com or by regular mail to the address set forth in the “Contact Information” section below within thirty (30) days following the date you first accept these Terms, or if you have not registered for an account, then within thirty (30) days following the date you first use our Services. If you don’t provide us with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice within the thirty (30) day period, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any Dispute except as expressly set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) above. Unless you timely provide us with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice, you acknowledge and agree that you and we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless you otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any limitations set forth in this Agreement to Arbitrate on the right to arbitrate claims on a class or representative basis, or as part of a consolidated proceeding, as to a given claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and brought in the state or federal courts located in New York, New York. All other claims will be arbitrated.

Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Governing Law; Dispute Resolution; Arbitration” section. (The AAA Rules are available at https://www.adr.org/Rules.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.

‍Arbitration Process. A Party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. AAA provides a general form for a Demand for Arbitration and a separate form for Demand for Arbitration for California residents. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

‍Arbitration Location and Procedure. Unless you agree with us otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of the documents that are submitted to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

‍Arbitrators Decision. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim.

‍Fees. Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in these Terms, if we change this “Dispute Resolution” section after the date you accepted these Terms or access our Services, you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email to legal@rubywell.com) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Effective Date” listed at the beginning of these Terms or in the date of our email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and us in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you accepted these Terms, or accessed our Services.

‍No Class Actions. YOU AND RUBYWELL AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and RubyWell agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

‍Limited Time to File Claims. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR RUBYWELL WANTS TO ASSERT A DISPUTE AGAINST THE OTHER THAT IS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS, THEN YOU OR RUBYWELL MUST COMMENCE SUCH DISPUTE BY DELIVERY OF A NOTICE OF ARBITRATION WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES -- OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.

‍Severability. All parts of these Terms apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. RubyWell and you both agree that if we cannot enforce a part of this contract as written, then that part will be replaced with terms that most closely match the intent of the part we cannot enforce, to the extent permitted by law. The invalidity of part of these Terms will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. The section headings are for convenience only and do not have any force or effect.
