Petrolicious Terms of Service

Taken together these are a contract which defines and establishes the rights and responsibilities of all Users of the Marketplace. Please read the Terms of Service and all referenced documents carefully and make sure you understand and agree to them. Please note, these Terms of Service contain a mandatory individual arbitration and class action/jury trial waiver provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or class actions, detailed in Section 12(C) and 12(E) below. If you disagree with any provision or part of the Terms of Service and the referenced documents, then you do NOT have permission to access our Platform or to use our Service.

b.) Arbitration. For any dispute with Petrolicous, you agree to first contact us at info@petrolicious.com and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that Petrolicious has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as provided below) arising out of or in connection with or relating to these Terms of Service, or the breach or alleged breach thereof by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association. The arbitration will be conducted in Los Angeles County, California, unless you and Petrolicious expressly agree in writing otherwise. Each party will be responsible for paying its own costs and fees. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing herein shall be deemed as preventing Petrolicious from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, Intellectual Property Rights or other proprietary rights.
c.) Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver. With respect to all persons and entities, regardless of whether they have obtained or used the Service for personal, commercial or other purposes, all claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action, collective action, private attorney general action or other representative proceeding.
