SECTION 5 - PRODUCTS OR SERVICES (if applicable)
If you purchase products as part of the Services, this Section 5 applies to you. Rocketbook’s products may be available through our online retail partners, which may have their own terms of use and privacy policies that we encourage you to review.
Availability; Limitations or Refusals. We do not guarantee the availability of any product, even if our Site shows that a particular product is available. All descriptions of products or product pricing are subject to change at any time without notice, at our sole discretion, and we do not provide price protection or refunds in the event of a price reduction or promotional offering. We may not have all products or product lines available online. If a product becomes unavailable following a transaction, your sole remedy is a refund, replacement (if a replacement is available), or credit. If technical problems prevent or unreasonably delay delivery of your product, your sole remedy is either replacement or refund of the price paid, at our sole option. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to limit the sales of our products or Services to any person, geographic region, or jurisdiction. We reserve the right to limit the quantities of any products or Services that we offer. Any offer for any product or Services made on this Site is void where prohibited. We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us.
Online Returns: Certain products or services may be available exclusively online through the Site. Returns or exchanges for such products purchased directly from getrocketbook.com will be handled in accordance with our Return Policy.
Payment: To the extent you are required to submit payment information to us for your use of the Services (including to pay for products), we may use a third party payment service to process such information and facilitate the applicable payments. By submitting your payment account information, you grant us the right to store and process your information with the third party payment service and agree that we will not be responsible for any failures of the third party to adequately protect such information. The processing of payments will be subject to the terms, conditions and privacy policies of such third party payment service in addition to this Agreement. You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account information for all purchases made at our store. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed. You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using an account registered to you.
Site Transactions: We reserve the right to refuse any order you place with us. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same customer account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. In the event that we make a change to or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting the email and/or billing address/phone number provided at the time the order was made. We reserve the right to limit or prohibit orders that, in our sole judgment, appear to be placed by dealers, resellers or distributors.
Taxes: We will charge taxes on products purchased when taxes are applicable. You agree to pay all fees and applicable taxes incurred by you or anyone using an account registered to you.
Products: Products you purchase to use with our Services may have their own separate set of instructions provided by third party manufacturers and are subject to separate terms and conditions supplied with such products. We encourage you to refer to these product-specific terms prior to, and in connection with, your use of the Services.
SECTION 6 - ACCURACY OF BILLING AND ACCOUNT INFORMATION
You may be required to create an account to access certain parts of our Services, which will require you to provide us with certain personal information, which may include your name and email address, and, in some cases, payment information. This information will be held and used in accordance with our Privacy Policy and relevant “just-in-time” notices, if any, provided at the point of information collection or use. In order to create your account you will be required to set a password. You agree that you are responsible for keeping your password confidential and secure, and further understand that you are solely responsible and liable for any activities that occur under your account. We will assume that if your login or payment method are used to access the Services, the User has the legal authority to use such login or payment method. You must provide accurate and complete information in response to our questions and you are solely responsible for keeping that information current. You agree not to share your account or login information, let anyone else access your account, or do anything else that might jeopardize the security of your account. In the event you become aware of or reasonably suspect any breach of security, including without limitation any loss, theft, or unauthorized disclosure of the login information, you must immediately notify us and modify your login information. You are responsible for ensuring that all persons who access our Services through your internet connection are aware of these Terms and that they comply with them.
You agree not to impersonate or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity, including using another person’s username, password or other account information, another person’s name or likeness or provide false details for a parent or guardian.

SECTION 14 – NOTIFICATION OF CLAIMS OF INFRINGEMENT
It is our policy to respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement (“Notices”) that comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). If you believe that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, or that your intellectual property rights have been otherwise violated, please provide the following information in an email to our designated copyright agent (“Designated Copyright Agent”) in accordance with the procedures set forth herein:
- Identification of the material that you claim is infringing, with enough detail that we can locate it on the Services.
- A statement that you have a good faith belief that the material’s use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
- A statement declaring under penalty of perjury that (a) the above information in your notice is accurate, and (b) that you are the owner of the copyright interest involved or that you are authorized to act on behalf of that owner.
- Your address, telephone number, and email address.
- Your physical or electronic signature.
Deliver this Notice, with all items completed, to our Designated Copyright Agent:
Attn: Joe Lemay
Rocket Innovations, Inc.
legal@getrocketbook.com
We will respond to properly submitted Notices of claims of copyright infringement in the manner set forth above. We will take whatever action we deem appropriate, in our sole discretion, including removal of the offensive content, contacting the relevant user, and/or terminating any user that is determined by us to be a repeat infringer.
SECTION 15 – BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION
You and Rocketbook mutually agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory) arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitration, or to the use of the Services (hereinafter “Claim” or “Claims”) shall be settled by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitrator can award any damages or relief on your individual claim that a court of law could, including individual injunctive relief and attorneys’ fees when available under the governing law. The arbitrator will also be empowered to determine the arbitrability of any Claim. Any Claim will be decided by an arbitrator, rather than by a judge or jury, and an arbitration award will be final and binding on you and Rocketbook, without any right of appeal. Court review of an arbitration award will be very limited. Unless explicitly excepted as stated below, you and Rocketbook hereby waive the right to assert any Claim in any court. As set out below, all arbitrations will be conducted on an individual basis, and there shall be no class or collective actions in arbitration.
Exceptions. We agree not to invoke our right to arbitrate any individual Claim you bring in small claims court or an equivalent court with jurisdiction, so long as the Claim is pending only in that court.
Individual Claims Only. Claims may be submitted to arbitration on an individual basis only. Claims subject to this arbitration provision may not be joined or consolidated in arbitration with any Claim of any other person or be arbitrated on a class basis, in a representative capacity, on behalf of the general public, or on behalf of any other person, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties in writing. You acknowledge and agree that you are waiving any ability to join or consolidate your Claim in arbitration with the Claim of any other person and to bring any Claim on a class basis, in a representative capacity, on behalf of the general public, or on behalf of any other person. Further, unless you and Rocketbook both otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate your Claim with that of any other person, and may award relief only in favor of your individual Claim. The arbitrator may not award relief for or against any other party, whether directly or indirectly. If a court of competent jurisdiction deems this paragraph to be unenforceable with respect to any Claim, then the entirety of this Section 15 relating to arbitration will be deemed void with respect to such Claim. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, the Notice will survive any termination of these Terms. The arbitrator will be competent to determine the arbitrability of any Claim that is attempted to be joined or consolidated in arbitration with the Claim of any other person or brought on a class basis, in a representative capacity, on behalf of the general public, or on behalf of any other person.
Arbitration Fees. JAMS may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from JAMS. The award rendered by the arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorney’s fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses.
Confidentiality. You and Rocketbook agree that any arbitration proceedings initiated hereunder shall be kept in strict confidence, meaning that you and Rocketbook agree not to disclose or cause to be disclosed to any third party the dispute(s) to be arbitrated hereunder, or any of the underlying facts, circumstances, documents, and other materials relating to such dispute(s), except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law.
SECTION 16 – GENERAL PROVISIONS
Enforcement: Rocketbook reserves the right to take steps that we believe are reasonably necessary or appropriate to enforce and/or verify compliance with any part of the Terms and or any other rights or responsibilities we may have. You agree that we have the right, without liability to you, to disclose any registration data and/or account information, including without limitation, your information and Personal Information, Your Content and User Submissions, to law enforcement authorities, government officials, and/or a third party, as we believe is reasonably necessary or appropriate to protect our rights or the rights of a third party, or to meet any applicable law, regulation, subpoena, legal process or governmental request; enforce applicable these Terms, including investigation of potential violations; detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security or technical issues; and to protect against harm to the rights, property or safety of Rocketbook, our Users, customers or the public as required or permitted by law.
Assignment. Rocketbook may assign or delegate these Terms, in whole or in part, to any person or entity at any time with or without your consent. You may not assign or delegate these Terms, in whole or in part, nor any rights or obligations under these Terms without Rocketbook’s prior written consent, and any unauthorized assignment and delegation by you is void.
Supplemental Policies. Rocketbook may publish additional policies related to specific services such as applications for mobile devices, games, forums, contests or loyalty programs. Your right to use such services is subject to those specific policies and these Terms of Service.
Entire Agreement: These Terms of Service, including any supplemental policies and any documents expressly incorporated herein by reference (including Rocketbook’s Privacy Policy), contain the entire understanding between you and Rocketbook, and supersede all prior understandings of the parties hereto relating to the subject matter hereof, whether electronic, oral or written, or whether established by custom, practice, policy or precedent, between you and Rocketbook with respect to the Service.
Severability: If any provision of the Terms shall be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from the Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
Survival: Accrued obligations and provisions of the Terms, which by their nature should survive the termination of the Terms, shall survive such termination.
No Waiver: The failure of Rocketbook to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
Equitable Remedies: You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made under these Terms to Rocketbook are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which shall irreparably harm Rocketbook and which cannot be replaced by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, Rocketbook shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligations of posting any bond or surety or proof of damages) as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our data security, intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights.
Force Majeure: Rocketbook shall not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside the reasonable control of Rocketbook, including without limitation any failure to perform hereunder due to unforeseen circumstances or cause beyond Rocketbook’s control such as acts of God, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, floods, accidents, network infrastructure failures, strikes, or shortages of transportation facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials.
Governing Law: These Terms, and any dispute between you and us, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Commonwealth of Massachusetts, United States of America. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
