Under no circumstances shall Gear Patrol, or its directors, officers, employees, agents or affiliates, be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, treble, or punitive damages, including for any lost profits, lost data, costs of delay, business interruption, or costs of procurement of substitute goods or services, that result from the use of, or the inability to use, the Platform or the GP Content, unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data, or any errors or omissions in the GP Content, even if Gear Patrol has been advised of the possibility of such damages. You specifically acknowledge and agree that Gear Patrol is not liable for any conduct of any User. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF GEAR PATROL, ITS AFFILIATES, AND ITS THIRD-PARTY PROVIDERS TO YOU ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PLATFORM OR THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).

            If in connection with your use of the Platform you are dissatisfied or harmed by Gear Patrol’s services, any other Gear Patrol Platform User, any Gear Patrol partner, any GP Property, or with any of Gear Patrol’s terms and conditions, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue using the Platform.

            6. DISCLAIMER

                Informal Dispute Resolution. If you have a dispute with or claim against Gear Patrol, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve your claim informally by sending a written description of your claim to [email protected]. You and Gear Patrol each agree to negotiate in good faith. You agree that you may not commence any court proceeding unless you and Gear Patrol are unable to resolve the claim within sixty (60) days after Gear Patrol receives your written claim description and you have made a good faith effort to resolve your claim directly with us during that time.

                JURY TRIAL WAIVER. YOU AND GEAR PATROL EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM.

                Injunctive Relief. You acknowledge and agree that a breach by you of your obligations under the “Content; Intellectual Property”, “Eligibility” or “Access to and Use of Content”, sections of these Terms could cause Gear Patrol irreparable harm for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy. In the event of such breach or threatened breach, Gear Patrol will be entitled to equitable relief, including a restraining order, injunction, or specific performance, without any requirement to post a bond or other security or to prove actual damages or that monetary damages are not an adequate remedy. These remedies are not exclusive and are in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity.

                The Terms have been made in and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with New York’s law, without regard for conflicts of law rules, and the Terms will operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. Any action related to the enforcement of these Terms shall be brought in the federal or state courts located in the County of New York, New York.

                8. GENERAL PROVISIONS

                  Assignment. You are prohibited from assigning these Terms to a third party without the prior written consent of Gear Patrol. Gear Patrol may assign these Terms and/or its rights and obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, without notice to you or your consent: (i) in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of substantially all of our assets, or (ii) to an affiliate of Gear Patrol. Subject to the foregoing restrictions on assignment, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of you and Gear Patrol.

                  Severability. If any part of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, that part may be severed to the minimum extent necessary to cure such invalidity or unenforceability, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

                  Amendment. We reserve the right to amend these Terms at our discretion and at any time. When we do, we will post the revised Terms on the Platform with a new “Last Updated” date. We may, but are not required to, absent legally mandated notice requirements, also provide you with notice of the amended Terms via any other means we consider reasonable, including, without limitation, email. Your continued use of the Platform following the posting of changes (or other notice we provide in our sole discretion) constitutes your acceptance of such changes. In the event of a material change requiring legally mandated notice, we may provide 30-day notice via any means we consider reasonable, including, without limitation, email. We may, but are not required to, also provide you with alternative means of accepting any changes to or an amended version of these Terms. We encourage you to visit this page regularly for any changes.

                  Waiver. You or Gear Patrol may waive any provision of these Terms in writing signed by both parties. Any failure to insist on or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Terms or any of its rights is not a waiver of any provision or right.

                  Notices. You may deliver notices to Gear Patrol by email to [email protected]. If you are commencing a legal proceeding against Gear Patrol, we do not accept notice or service via email and you must serve us with legal process as required by applicable law. Gear Patrol may deliver notices to you via email or by posting notice on the Platform using the contact information in your account. Electronic notices are considered delivered when sent or posted.

                  Electronic Communications and Signatures (E-Sign) Consent. You agree and consent to receive communications, notices, agreements, or disclosures from Gear Patrol electronically rather than in paper form, and to the use of electronic signatures. You acknowledge that you have the ability to receive such communications electronically. You may withdraw your consent to receive electronic communications at any time by contacting us at [email protected], provided that Gear Patrol may terminate your access to the Platform if you do so.

                  Third-Party Beneficiaries. Gear Patrol’s third-party providers, licensors, and suppliers and its affiliates are considered to be third-party beneficiaries of these Terms solely to the extent necessary for them to enforce any protections afforded to them herein. There are no other third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.
