a. Payment Processing Service. To facilitate payment for the Services, each Member is required to register a credit, debit or prepaid card and each Partner is required to register using the Partner's bank account details. You authorize us and the payment processing service retained by us (currently, Stripe) to facilitate the transaction of the Services and the payment remittance of all applicable charges and fees between you and other Members and between you and us.

We retain the right, in our sole discretion, to seek authorization of your selected payment method to verify the payment method, ensure that all fees related to your order will be covered, and protect against unauthorized behavior. The authorization is not a charge, however, it may reduce your available credit by the authorization amount until your bank’s next processing cycle. Should the amount of our authorization exceed the total funds on deposit in your account, you may be subject to overdraft of NSF charges by the bank issuing your debit or prepaid card. We cannot be held responsible for these charges and are unable to assist you in recovering them from your issuing bank.

Except for the Talk To Bruno Guarantee, no refunds or credits will be provided once the Member's selected payment method has been charged. While we will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect all payment method information and all other personal information, we expressly disclaim any liability for any damage that may result should any information be released to any third parties, and you agree to hold us harmless for any damages that may result therefrom. The Job Fee quoted is exclusive of taxes. Talk To Bruno is not responsible or liable for any taxes incurred in connection with the Service excluding taxes on Talk To Bruno's income.

Talk To Bruno's cancellation policy for specific Services is as follows:

a. Cancellation by Member. As a Member, you may cancel your scheduled Service appointments through the App at any time, subject to the following:

i. Services Booked 24 Hours in Advance

If you cancel more than 24 hours before a scheduled Service appointment, there is no cancellation fee.
If you cancel between 2-24 hours before a scheduled Service appointment, you may be charged a $10.00 cancellation fee.

If you are more than 15 minutes late for a scheduled appointment (note: the scheduled time for a “Now” appointment is 1 hour from the time you are selected by your Member) or fail to complete a scheduled Service, you shall be deemed to have cancelled such appointment. When you cancel a scheduled Service appointment, the Talk To Bruno Platform generally notifies your Member to resubmit the request for Service. Talk To Bruno cannot guarantee that a cancelled Service appointment will be selected by another Partner and rescheduled or that the Service request will be completed.

You acknowledge that Talk To Bruno reserves the right, at any time, to modify its Access Fees and billing methods.

9. Ratings

28. Limitation on Liability

IN NO EVENT WILL TALK TO BRUNO, ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR LICENSORS, SERVICE PARTNERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, OFFICERS OR DIRECTORS BE LIABLE FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE TALK TO BRUNO PLATFORM, ANY TALK TO BRUNO PLATFORMS LINKED TO IT, ANY CONTENT ON THE TALK TO BRUNO PLATFORM OR SUCH OTHER TALK TO BRUNO PLATFORMS OR ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE TALK TO BRUNO PLATFORM OR SUCH OTHER TALK TO BRUNO PLATFORMS, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, PERSONAL INJURY, PAIN AND SUFFERING, EMOTIONAL DISTRESS, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF PROFITS, LOSS OF BUSINESS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, AND WHETHER CAUSED BY TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), BREACH OF CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF FORESEEABLE.

30. Dispute Resolution; Arbitration of Claims

Generally, in the interest of resolving disputes between you and Talk To Bruno in the most expedient and cost effective manner, YOU AND TALK TO BRUNO MUTUALLY AGREE THAT EVERY DISPUTE ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT 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 this Agreement, 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 this Agreement. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND TALK TO BRUNO ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

a. Exceptions. Nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

b. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Talk To Bruno will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. 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 Talk To Bruno.

c. Notice; 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"). Talk To Bruno's address for Notice is: Talk To Bruno, Inc., 5680 king Centre Dr,Suite 600, Alexandria VA -22315, Attn: Legal Department. The Notice must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) 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 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Talk To Bruno may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Talk To Bruno must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Talk To Bruno will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by Talk To Bruno in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator's award; or (iii) $1,000.

d. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, Talk To Bruno 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. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Fairfax County Virginia, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely based on documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Talk To Bruno for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. 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. 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 14 days of the arbitrator's ruling on the merits.

e. No Class Actions. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND TALK TO BRUNO AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER 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 Talk To Bruno agree otherwise, 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, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law.

f. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Talk To Bruno makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Talk To Bruno's address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Talk To Bruno's address for Notice, in which case your account with Talk To Bruno will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

g. Enforceability. If any part of this section is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this section will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in this Agreement will govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.
