This Section 22 applies whether or not you have paid for the Device, the Grin Services or the App. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES. IF YOU RESIDE IN SUCH A JURISDICTION, THESE TERMS APPLY TO YOU TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IF SUCH EXCLUSIONS ARE PERMITTED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE JURISDICTION WHERE YOU RESIDE.

  1. Grin hereby represents and warrants to you that each Device will be free from material defects in materials and workmanship under normal use and will operate substantially in accordance with the specifications and any instructions provided by Grin (the “Limited Warranty”) for a period of ninety (90) days from the delivery date of the Device (the “Warranty Period”).
  2. The Limited Warranty will not apply if the defect(s) relate to (a) normal wear and tear, (b) defects caused by knowing or intentional misuse, (c) non-compliance with the terms of these Terms, (d) willful or deliberate damage; or (e) any failure by you to package the Device adequately for transportation to Grin in accordance with the Returns Policy.
  3. EXCEPT FOR THE LIMITED WARRANTY SET FORTH IN SECTION 22.1 AND SECTION 22.2 AND AS EXPLICITLY SET FORTH IN THESE TERMS OR OTHERWISE AGREED IN WRITING BY GRIN, THE DEVICE, THE SERVICES, THE APP AND/OR THE OTHER SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, AND WITHOUT REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. GRIN HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND THOSE ARISING BY STATUTE OR FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE OF TRADE PRACTICE. GRIN DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES, THE APP OR THE OTHER SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, MEET ANY PERFORMANCE OR RELIABILITY STANDARDS OR BE FREE OF BUGS, MALFUNCTIONS, SECURITY BREACHES, VIRUS ATTACKS, OR ILLEGAL PENETRATIONS. THE GRIN SERVICES, THE APP AND THE OTHER SERVICES MAY OCCASIONALLY BE UNAVAILABLE FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, UPGRADING, OR OTHER REASONS. GRIN DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED. YOU AGREE THAT GRIN WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OR ANY PATIENT OR OTHER THIRD PARTY THAT MAY RESULT FROM TECHNICAL PROBLEMS OF THE INTERNET, SLOW CONNECTIONS, TRAFFIC CONGESTION, OR OVERLOAD OF OUR OR OTHER SERVERS. WE DO NOT WARRANT, ENDORSE OR GUARANTEE ANY CONTENT, PRODUCT, OR SERVICE THAT IS FEATURED OR ADVERTISED ON THE GRIN SERVICES, THE APP OR ANY OF THE OTHER SERVICES BY A THIRD PARTY.
  4. GRIN IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR AND DOES NOT GUARANTEE ANY ORTHODONTISTS’ SUITABILITY, COMPETENCY, OR COMPATIBILITY TO THE NEEDS AND OBJECTIVES OF PATIENTS AND GRIN DOES NOT WARRANT, ENDORSE OR GUARANTEE TO PATIENTS ANY SERVICE PERFORMED BY ANY ORTHODONTIST. GRIN SHALL NOT BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO OTHER PATIENTS OR USERS IN ANY WAY FOR THE RESULTS OR OUTCOMES OF THE DEVICES OR ANY OF THE GRIN SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER OR FOR ANY ORTHODONTIC, MEDICAL OR CLINICAL ADVICE, TREATMENT OR DIAGNOSTIC PROVIDED THROUGH THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES OR THE APP, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, FOR THE ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF YOUR ORTHODONTISTS AND/OR ANY ACTIVITIES OCCURRING ON THE PREMISES OF YOUR ORTHODONTIST’S OFFICE. FOR CLARITY, ALL THE ABOVE ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF YOUR ORTHODONTIST AND NOT GRIN’S RESPONSIBILITY.
  5. YOU HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOUR USE OF THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES, THE APP OR ANY OF THE OTHER SERVICES IS VOLUNTARY AND AT YOUR OWN RISK, AND YOU AGREE THAT GRIN WILL NOT BE HELD RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY CONSEQUENCES (SUCH AS, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, HEALTH PROBLEMS, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH) TO YOU OR OTHER THIRD PARTY THAT RESULT FROM (I) YOUR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO USE) THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES, THE APP OR ANY OF THE OTHER SERVICES OR (II) YOUR NEGLECT OR MISUSE OF THE DEVICE OR THE GRIN SERVICES. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT GRIN IS NOT A LICENSED ORTHODONTIST OR MEDICAL CARE PROVIDER AND THAT YOUR ORTHODONTIST OR MEDICAL PROVIDER IS SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ORTHODONTIC OR MEDICAL INFORMATION OR ADVICE PROVIDED BY YOUR ORTHODONTIST OR PROVIDER THROUGH THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES OR THE APP. YOU HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY ORTHODONTIC, MEDICAL OR OTHER SIMILAR PROFESSIONAL ADVICE PROVIDED VIA THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES OR THE APP IS THE RESPONSIBILITY OF YOUR ORTHODONTIST.

23. Limitation of Liability.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, AND EXCEPT FOR GRIN’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, NEITHER GRIN NOR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES SHALL BE LIABLE FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES OR COSTS OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS BY ANYONE OR FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, REPUTATION OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS, ARISING FROM OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, YOUR ORTHODONTIST’S SERVICES OR OUT OF YOUR ACCESS OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE DEVICE, THE SERVICES, AND/OR THE APP, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, EVEN IF GRIN OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES OR LOSSES. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, SO THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF GRIN OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING UNDER THESE TERMS, THE ORTHODONTISTS’ SERVICES, OR OUT OF YOUR ACCESS OR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO ACCESS AND USE, THE DEVICE, THE SERVICES, AND/OR THE APP EXCEED THE GREATER OF (I) THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF FEES, IF ANY, PAID BY YOU TO GRIN UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PURCHASE OF THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES OR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR (II) $500.

EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 23 WILL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY.

24. Indemnity.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless Grin and its affiliates, and our respective officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s fees) arising from (a) the violation of these Terms by you (including other representatives), (b) the misuse of the Device, the Services, and/or the App by you (including other representatives), or (c) the violation of law by you (including any of your representatives).

25. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

  1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Grin in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, and except as described in Section 25.2 and Section 25.3, you and Grin agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND GRIN ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
  2. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 25.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to restrict or otherwise limit the right of either party to (a) bring an individual action in small claims court to the extent that the applicable requirements have been met; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, provincial or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in any court of competent jurisdiction to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
  3. Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt-out of the provisions of this Section 25 within thirty (30) days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to Get-Grin, Inc., Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, 382A Rte 59, Airmont, NY 10952 that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Services, and a statement that you wish to opt-out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Grin receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 25 (other than Section 25.2) will be null and void, and in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 30 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms or any of the Services. The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
  4. Arbitration. Any arbitration between you and Grin will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Grin. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in New York County, New York, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county of your billing address. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based.
  5. Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). Grin’s address for Notice is Get-Grin, Inc., 382A Rte 59, Airmont, NY 10952. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within thirty (30) days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, either you or Grin may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Grin must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Grin in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, then Grin will pay to you the higher of (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.00.
  6. Fees; Prevailing Party. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Grin will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. The party prevailing in any arbitration shall be entitled to receive in addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the costs incurred by such party in conducting the suit, action, or proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
  7. No Class Actions. YOU AND GRIN AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY 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 Grin otherwise agree, 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.
  8. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Grin makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Grin’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to Grin’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case (i) your account with Grin and your right to access and use the Device, the Services, and/or the App will be immediately terminated and (ii) this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
  9. Enforceability. If Section 25.8 or the entirety of this Section 25 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 25 (other than Section 25.2) will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Part Three-Section 30 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms or any of the Services.

YOU AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION THAT YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE DEVICE, THE GRIN SERVICES, THE APP OR ANY OF THE OTHER SERVICES MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

26. Modification.

  1. Grin reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of these Terms at any time by posting the amended terms to the Site, the App or any of the other Services. If Grin updates these Terms, it will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of the Terms. Please check these Terms, including the Policies (as defined herein), periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Device, the Grin Services, the App or any of the other Services after the posting of changes constitutes your binding acceptance of such changes. In the event of a change to these Terms that materially modifies your rights or obligations, Grin will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify you of such change. Grin may provide notice through a pop-up or banner within any of the Services, by sending an email to any address you may have used to register for an account, or through other similar mechanisms. Additionally, if the changed terms materially modify your rights or obligations, Grin may require you to provide consent by accepting the changed terms. If Grin requires your acceptance of the changed terms, changes are effective only after your acceptance. For all other changes, except as stated elsewhere by Grin, such amended terms will automatically be effective, replacing the previously-effective Terms or fees, thirty (30) days after they are initially posted on any of the Services. IF AT ANY TIME YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, PLEASE IMMEDIATELY TERMINATE YOUR USE OF ALL SERVICES.

To the extent that any modifications to the Terms or the Policies are not allowed under applicable laws, the prior most recent version of the Terms or the Policies shall continue to apply.

  1. Grin reserves the right to modify, in its absolute discretion and without notice to you (or any other User), the Device, the Services, and/or the App and their content, including its design and the services that are provided through them.

27. Export Laws.

The party prevailing in any legal suit, action, or proceeding shall be entitled to receive in addition to all other damages to which it may be entitled, the costs incurred by such party in conducting the suit, action, or proceeding, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses and court costs.

31. Additional Terms.
