System Requirements

If you transfer your Device to a new owner, we recommend that you change your login credentials or that you reset it to the default factory setting, and the new owner will have to set his own password and connection in order to use the Services.
Use Outside Of Designated Countries
Although our website and mobile application are accessible worldwide, the Devices and Services are not available to all persons or in all countries. To the extent permissible by law, MY SMART REMOTE accepts no responsibility or liability for any damage or loss caused by your accessing or use of the Services or Devices in a country not specifically approved by MY SMART REMOTE. You will be bound by these Terms wherever you access or use the Services.
Limitations
Our aim is to make the Services highly reliable and available; however, they may not be available all of the time. The Services are subject to sporadic interruptions and failures for a variety of reasons beyond MY SMART REMOTE’s control, including without limitation, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi or mobile network failures and coverage limitations, service provider uptime, and acts of god. The Services work even in the presence of a single established connection such as Bluetooth. Further, our Services rely on or inter-operate with a number of third party products and services. These third party products and services are beyond MY SMART REMOTE’s control (including without the internet generally and third party service providers that we use for networking and storage), but their operation may impact or be impacted by the use and reliability of our Services. These third party products and services may not operate in a reliable manner all of the time, and they may impact the way that the Services operate, and MY SMART REMOTE is not responsible for damages and losses due to the operation of these third party products and services. You acknowledge these limitations and agree that MY SMART REMOTE is not responsible for any damages allegedly caused by the failure or delay of the Services to reflect current status or notifications. Further, the Devices and Services are not an emergency notification system, and should not be used in this way. MY SMART REMOTE is not responsible for dispatching emergency authorities to your vehicle in the event of an emergency.
You are responsible for all charges and fees required for your products and applicable services, and for compliance with all applicable agreements, terms of use/service, and other policies of your product and service providers (including internet service providers and mobile device carriers).
To the fullest extent allowed by law, MY SMART REMOTE is not responsible for damage or liability caused by (i) use of the Device and Services for purposes other than for which the Device and Services are designed or intended, or use in improper temperature, humidity or other environmental conditions, or use of the Device or Services in violation of written instructions provided by MY SMART REMOTE (which may be provided at the time of purchase or on its website at www.mysmartremote.com/support), (ii) normal wear and tear or aging, or improper repair, operation or maintenance or connections to improper voltage supply or, to the extent allowed by law, attempted repair by anyone other than a facility authorized by MY SMART REMOTE to service your MY SMART REMOTE Device.
The Device must be correctly installed and used with a working vehicle that is operating in good condition and with working central lock, working electronics and other functionalities. You assume all risk associated with the suitability, installation and performance of the vehicle central lock, electronic gadgets and other third party components, hardware, software and services.

Application
If you download the Application through or from any app store or distribution platform (like the Apple iStore or Google Play) where the Application is made available (each, an “Application Provider”), then you acknowledge and agree that:

- The Application Provider has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Application.
- In the event of any failure of the Application to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify the Application Provider, and the Application Provider may refund the purchase price for the Application to you (if applicable) and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Application Provider will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the Application.

Arbitration.
This section limits your and our rights. Specifically, you understand that you and MY SMART REMOTE are waiving the right to sue in court and have a jury trial for certain claims.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree that all disputes and claims arising out of, or relating to, these Terms, or your use of the Services, Licensed Software and Device (including the arbitrability of any claim or dispute and the enforceability of this section), shall be determined exclusively by final and binding arbitration. Provided however, that you agree that the terms of this arbitration section do not apply to determinations as to the ownership of any intellectual property rights in the Services, Licensed Software or Device.
In the event that a dispute arises between MY SMART REMOTE and the Purchaser, the affected parties shall attempt to resolve such dispute in the first instance by referring the matter to the relevant persons, or nominated equivalent, who will meet to try and negotiate a settlement in good faith. In the event that these person(s)/officers are unable to resolve the matter to the satisfaction of all parties, then the parties hereby agree to submit to arbitration by the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”), the decision of which shall be binding on all of them.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: Except as otherwise provided in this section, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless both you and MY SMART REMOTE specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration. If you choose to pursue your dispute in court by opting out of this section, as specified below, this class action waiver will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other user of the Services, Device or Licensed Software can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Services, Device or the Licensed Software without having complied with the opt-out requirements below.
Except as expressly set forth in this section, you and MY SMART REMOTE may litigate in court only to compel arbitration under these Terms or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrators. To the extent that you have breached or have indicated your intention to breach these Terms in any manner which violates or may violate MY SMART REMOTE’s or any of its licensor’s intellectual property rights, or may cause continuing or irreparable harm to MY SMART REMOTE (including, but not limited to, any breach that may impact MY SMART REMOTE’s or it’s licensor’s intellectual property rights, or a breach by reverse engineering), MY SMART REMOTE may seek injunctive relief, or any other appropriate relief, in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the above, you or MY SMART REMOTE may choose to pursue a dispute in court and not by arbitration if (a) the dispute qualifies, it may be initiated in small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THESE TERMS (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). You may opt out of this Section by mailing written notification to MY SMART REMOTE at support@mysmartremote.com . Your written notification must include (1) your name, (2) your address, and (3) a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with MY SMART REMOTE through arbitration. Your decision to opt-out of this Section will have no adverse effect on your relationship with MY SMART REMOTE. Any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and you must pursue your dispute in arbitration or in small claims court.
