Access and Use of the Service

Services Description : The Service is a neutral venue to connect parents and legal guardians of children (collectively, “Parents”) with daycare centers (each, a “Daycare”). Yaycare does not provide child care services. We provide search functionality through the Service to allow Parents to narrow the pool of Daycares they are interested in based on their needs and preferences, and we provide a communications platform that allows Parents and Daycares to communicate with each other. We allow Parents to schedule and book through the Service on-demand with a Daycare child care services at such Daycare’s premises (each such booking, a “Booking”). Parents may, among other things, research Daycares, read and post reviews of individual Daycares, and modify or cancel Bookings. Daycares may, among other things, set child care rates and update scheduling availability for potential Bookings; submit checklists, policies, and other documentation it requires from Parents in connection with Bookings at such Daycare; and view and analyze information related to such Daycare’s past and current Bookings.

Your Registration Obligations: You are required to register with Yaycare in order to access and use certain features of the Service. If you choose to register for the Service, you agree to provide and maintain true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself, children for which you are seeking child care services, emergency contacts and/or the Daycare you represent (as applicable) as prompted by the Service’s registration form, and represent and warrant that you are authorized to provide such information.

For Parents: If you are a Parent, you must register your account in your own legal name, not the name of the child for which you are seeking child care services. In addition, if you enter any information through the Service about a child, you represent and warrant that you are the parent or legal guardian of the individual subject of the data or that you are otherwise authorized by the parent or legal guardian of such individual subject to enter such data. Registration data and certain other information about you are governed by our Privacy Policy. If you are under 13 years of age, you are not authorized to use the Service, with or without registering. In addition, if you are under 18 years old, you may use the Service, with or without registering, only with the approval of your parent or guardian.

For Daycares: If you registering an account for a Daycare, you represent, warrant and covenant you have the legal right and authority to bind such Daycare to these Terms of Service. You must register the Daycare’s account in the legal name of the Daycare you represent, not your own name. As part of the registration process for Daycares, the information about the Daycare you submit through the Site will be vetted by Yaycare before the registration will be accepted. You agree to provide Yaycare with copies of the documentation requested by Yaycare, which may include without limitation the Daycare’s license, inspection and violation reports, proof of insurance, and a summary of any complaints made against the Daycare. Yaycare reserves the right to reject for any reason a Daycare’s application for registration for the Service.

Additional Requirements for Daycares: If you are using the Service on behalf of a Daycare, you represent at the time of each such use of the Service that such Daycare is fully licensed as required by applicable state laws and regulations; maintains commercially reasonable insurance policies; is, and provides child care services solely through individuals that are, health and safety certified (including CPR and first aid certifications); and has had a clean inspection record for the previous 12 months. You must immediately notify Yaycare and cease using the Service in the event that such Daycare fails to meet any of the foregoing requirements.

User Disputes: We make no representations or warranties about the quality of child care or other services provided by Daycares or about your interactions and dealings with other users of the Service. We do not recommend or endorse any specific Daycare. You agree that you are solely responsible for your conduct and interactions with any other user in connection with the Service, including but not limited to any events that occur after a Booking (e.g., a Daycare’s provision of child care services or occurrences on a Daycare’s premises), and Yaycare will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Yaycare reserves the right, but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Service. As described above, we conduct an initial review of documentation provided to us by Daycares during their account registration process to ensure that each Daycare is licensed, insured and has maintained a clean inspection record for the 12 months prior to their registration through the Service, but, unless explicitly specified through the Service (and then only to the extent specified), do not otherwise screen Daycares or Parents. Yaycare does not warrant than any information about Daycares is accurate, complete, conclusive or up-to-date. Opinions, advice, statements, offers, or other information or content made available by users on the Site or through the Service are those of their respective authors. Such authors are solely responsible for such content. Yaycare does not: (a) guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or usefulness of any information on the Site or available through the Service, or (b) adopt, endorse or accept responsibility for the accuracy or reliability of any opinion, advice, or statement made by any party that appears on the Site or through the Service. Under no circumstances will Yaycare or its affiliates be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from: (i) your reliance on information or other content posted on the Site or transmitted to or by any user of the Site or Service; or (ii) reviews or comments made about you on the Site or through the Service by other users. You agree that Yaycare has no obligation to remove any reviews or other information posted through the Service about you or any other person or entity. Yaycare disclaims any liability whatsoever for any misstatements and/or misrepresentations made by any users of the Service. You should exercise caution and use your independent judgment before engaging a Daycare (if you are a Parent), providing child care services booked through the Service (if you are a Daycare), or otherwise interacting with users via the Service. Parents are solely responsible for making decisions that are in the best interests of themselves and their children. See also the sections below titled “Disclaimer of Warranties” and “Limitation of Liability.”

Bookings, Payments and Fees

The Service may be used to find and offer child care services and to facilitate payment, but all transactions conducted via the Service are between Parents and Daycares.

Payment Processing: WE DO NOT PROCESS PAYMENT FOR ANY BOOKINGS. To facilitate Bookings via credit card or debit card, we use Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”), a third-party payment processor. These payment processing services are provided by Stripe and are subject to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement, which includes the Stripe Terms of Service (collectively, the "Stripe Services Agreement"). By agreeing to these Terms of Service, users that use the payment functions of the Service also agree to be bound by the Stripe Services Agreement, as the same may be modified by Stripe from time to time. As a condition of Yaycare enabling payment processing services through Stripe, you represent and warrant to Yaycare that any information about your payment instruments and/or bank accounts is true and that you are authorized to use the payment instrument and/or bank account, as applicable. You also authorize Yaycare to share such information and other transaction information related to your use of the payment processing services provided by Stripe. Yaycare assumes no liability or responsibility for any payments you may make through the Service.

For Parents: To make a Booking, please follow the procedures set out on the relevant page of the Service. Details of the prices charged for a Booking, and the procedures for payment are displayed on or through the Service. The price of any Booking is the price in force at the time of Booking and is determined in the sole discretion of the applicable Daycare. Yaycare will collect payment for Bookings on the applicable Daycare’s behalf as their limited payment collection agent, and payments to Yaycare for Bookings will be considered the same as payment made directly by you to the Daycare. You will be required to provide Yaycare with information regarding your credit or debit card or other payment instrument. You authorize Stripe to store and continue billing your specified payment method even after such payment method has expired, to avoid interruptions in payment for your Bookings. You will promptly update your account information with any changes (for example, a change in your billing address or credit card expiration date) that may occur.

You agree to pay Yaycare the amount that is specified in your Booking in accordance with these Terms of Service and the terms of the applicable Daycare. If you dispute any charges you must let Yaycare know within thirty (30) days after the date that Yaycare charges you. Daycares may change the prices they charge for a Booking on Yaycare at their discretion. Your Booking after any price change becomes effective constitutes your agreement to pay the changed amount. You are responsible for all taxes associated with the Services other than U.S. taxes based on Yaycare’s net income.

Referrals and Promotional Codes: Yaycare may, in its sole discretion, create promotional codes ("Promo Codes") that may be redeemed for discounts on future Services, or other features or benefits related to the Service, subject to any additional terms that Yaycare establishes. You agree that Promo Codes: (a) must be used for the intended audience and purpose, and in a lawful manner; (b) may not be duplicated, sold or transferred in any manner, or made available to the general public (whether posted to a public forum or otherwise), unless expressly permitted by Yaycare; (c) may be disabled by Yaycare at any time for any reason without liability to Yaycare; (d) may only be used pursuant to the specific terms that Yaycare establishes for such Promo Code; (e) are not valid for cash; and (f) may expire prior to your use. Yaycare reserves the right to withhold or deduct credits or other features or benefits obtained through the use of the referral system or Promo Codes by you or any other user in the event that Yaycare determines or believes that the use of the use or redemption of the Promo Code was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or otherwise in violation of these Terms of Service.

For Daycares: We charge a flat fifteen percent (15%) fee for Bookings made using our Services. You will be required to provide Yaycare with information regarding your bank account. You authorize Stripe to store your bank account information to avoid interruptions in receiving the proceeds from Bookings, net of Yaycare’s fee. Once a Parent pays for a Booking, the net proceeds of such Booking after payment of Yaycare’s fee will be automatically transferred to the bank account on file that you provided to Yaycare through your account within two (2) days, unless your account status with Stripe becomes “unverified” in which case the funds due to you will be held indefinitely until your account with Stripe achieves a “verified” status. Please contact Stripe directly for more information if your account status becomes “unverified.” Booking fees are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Yaycare.

Refunds and Cancellations: Booking payments paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Yaycare. Parents and Daycares may also cancel Bookings in certain circumstances. Cancellations are governed by our Cancellation Policy.

Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration:

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

a. Agreement to Arbitrate

This Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration section is referred to in these Terms of Service as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Yaycare, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service (including any alleged breach thereof), the Service, any advertising, and any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. Further, this Arbitration Agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies, and such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf. You agree that, by entering into this Terms of Service, you and Yaycare are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement.

b. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

YOU AND YAYCARE AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND YAYCARE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S), EXCEPT THAT YOU MAY PURSUE A CLAIM FOR AND THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF UNDER APPLICABLE LAW TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED FOR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS PROVISION.

c. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution

Yaycare is always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently, and most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing customer support at support@yaycare.app. If such efforts prove unsuccessful, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to Yaycare should be sent to 2036 Dogwood Drive, Scotch Plains, NJ 07076 (“Notice Address”). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. If Yaycare and you do not resolve the claim within sixty (60) calendar days after the Notice is received, you or Yaycare may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Yaycare or you will not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or Yaycare is entitled.

d. Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. For information on the AAA, please visit its website, http://www.adr.org. Information about the AAA Rules and fees for consumer disputes can be found at the AAA’s consumer arbitration page, http://info.adr.org/consumer-arbitration. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. The arbitrator must also follow the provisions of these Terms of Service as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. Although arbitration proceedings are usually simpler and more streamlined than trials and other judicial proceedings, the arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under these Terms of Service and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.

Unless Yaycare and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination will be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, Yaycare agrees that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

e. Costs of Arbitration

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, at your request, Yaycare will pay all Arbitration Fees. If the value of relief sought is more than $10,000 and you are able to demonstrate to the arbitrator that you are economically unable to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees or if the arbitrator otherwise determines for any reason that you should not be required to pay your portion of the Arbitration Fees, Yaycare will pay your portion of such fees. In addition, if you demonstrate to the arbitrator that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Yaycare will pay as much of the Arbitration Fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive. Any payment of attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.

f. Confidentiality

All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.

g. Severability

If a court or the arbitrator decides that any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement (other than the subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” above) is invalid or unenforceable, the parties agree to replace such term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the intention of the invalid or unenforceable term or provision, and this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable as so modified. If a court or the arbitrator decides that any of the provisions of subsection (b) above titled “Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief” are invalid or unenforceable, then the entirety of this Arbitration Agreement will be null and void, unless such provisions are deemed to be invalid or unenforceable solely with respect to claims for public injunctive relief. The remainder of these Terms of Service will continue to apply.

h. Future Changes to Arbitration Agreement

Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Service to the contrary, Yaycare agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to the Notice Address) while you are a user of the Services, you may reject any such change by sending Yaycare written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to the Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms of Service (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms of Service).

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE FOREGOING IN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, IF YOU REPRESENT A DAYCARE OR OTHER ENTITY, OR ARE ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT IN ANY CAPACITY OTHER THAN AS AN INDIVIDUAL REPRESENTING YOURSELF, SUBSECTIONS (A), (D) AND (E) ABOVE ARE HEREBY DELETED AND REPLACED IN THER ENTIRETY WITH THE CORRESPONDING PROVISIONS BELOW AND SUBSECTION (H) ABOVE DOES NOT APPLY TO YOU.

a. Agreement to Arbitrate

This section (including subsections (a) through (g)) is referred to in these Terms of Service as the “Arbitration Agreement.” You agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Yaycare, whether arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service (including any alleged breach thereof), the Service, any advertising, any aspect of the relationship or transactions between us, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than a court, in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Agreement, except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify. You agree that, by entering into these Terms of Service, you and Yaycare are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, not a judge or jury. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Arbitration Agreement shall not preclude either party from pursuing a court action for the sole purpose of obtaining a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction in circumstances in which such relief is appropriate; provided that any other relief shall be pursued through an arbitration proceeding pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement.

d. Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration will be conducted by a neutral arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. If there is any inconsistency between any term of the AAA Rules and any term of this Arbitration Agreement, the applicable terms of this Arbitration Agreement will control unless the arbitrator determines that the application of the inconsistent Arbitration Agreement terms would not result in a fundamentally fair arbitration. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including, but not limited to, issues relating to the scope, enforceability, and arbitrability of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual under this Agreement and applicable law. Decisions by the arbitrator are enforceable in court and may be overturned by a court only for very limited reasons.

Unless we and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in a reasonably convenient location for both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the determination shall be made by AAA. If your claim is for $10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.

e. Costs of Arbitration

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees (collectively, the “Arbitration Fees”) will be governed by the AAA Rules, unless otherwise provided in this Arbitration Agreement. Any payment of attorneys’ fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.

Termination

You agree that Yaycare, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service and remove and discard any content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if Yaycare believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of Service, may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. Yaycare may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Service under any provision of these Terms of Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that Yaycare may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Service. Further, you agree that Yaycare will not be liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to the Service. All provisions of these Terms of Service which by their nature should survive termination will survive termination, including, without limitation, the sections titled “Access and Use of the Service—Consent to Communication, —User Disputes, and —Daycare Data,” “Intellectual Property Rights,” “Social Networking Services,” “Indemnity and Release,” “Disclaimer of Warranties,” “Limitation of Liability,” “Dispute Resolution By Binding Arbitration,” “User Disputes” and “General.”

General

These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement between you and Yaycare and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Yaycare with respect to the Service. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use affiliate or third party services, third party content or third party software. The law of the State of New York will govern these Terms of Service, the interpretation and enforcement of its terms and any claim or cause of action (in law or equity), controversy or dispute arising out of or related to it or its negotiation, execution or performance, whether based on contract, tort, statutory or other law, in each case without giving effect to any conflicts-of-law or other principle requiring the application of the law of any other jurisdiction. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and Yaycare agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New York, New York. The failure of Yaycare to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of these Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to this agreement to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms of Service without the prior written consent of Yaycare, but Yaycare may assign or transfer this Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Notices to you may be made via either email or regular mail. The Service may also provide notices to you of changes to these Terms of Service or other matters by displaying notices or links to notices generally on the Service. If any of these Terms of Service are deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, that condition will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining condition.
