    • ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER – IMPORTANT – PLEASE REVIEW AS THIS AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS:
      1. ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE THAT ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US (WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DISPUTE INVOLVES A THIRD PARTY) WITH REGARD TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DISPUTES RELATED TO THIS EULA AND THE LICENSES GRANTED HEREUNDER, YOUR USE OF THE SOFTWARE, AND/OR RIGHTS OF PRIVACY AND/OR PUBLICITY, WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE STREAMLINED ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES OF JAMS THEN IN EFFECT, AND YOU AND WE HEREBY EXPRESSLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, THAT TO THE EXTENT THAT YOU HAVE IN ANY MANNER VIOLATED OR THREATENED TO VIOLATE OUR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS, WE MAY SEEK INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER APPROPRIATE RELIEF IN ANY STATE OR FEDERAL COURT IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK. DISCOVERY AND RIGHTS TO APPEAL IN ARBITRATION ARE GENERALLY MORE LIMITED THAN IN A LAWSUIT, AND OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU AND WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. AS AN ALTERNATIVE, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIM IN YOUR LOCAL “SMALL CLAIMS” COURT, IF PERMITTED BY THAT SMALL CLAIMS COURT'S RULES AND IF WITHIN SUCH COURT’S JURISDICTION, UNLESS SUCH ACTION IS TRANSFERRED, REMOVED OR APPEALED TO A DIFFERENT COURT. YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS ONLY ON YOUR OWN BEHALF. NEITHER YOU NOR WE WILL PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION FOR ANY CLAIMS COVERED BY THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST US INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person's account, if we are a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and not by any state law concerning arbitration. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with this EULA.
      2. 30-Day Opt-Out Period. If you do not wish to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this Section 16, you must notify Latch in writing within 30 days of the date that you first accept this EULA (unless a longer period is required by applicable law). Your written notification must be mailed to Latch at the following address: P.O. Box 2048, New York NY 10159. If you do not notify Latch in accordance with 16(b), you agree to be bound by the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions of this EULA, including such provisions in this EULA revised after the date of your first acceptance. Such notification must include: (i) your name, (ii) your Latch Account number; (iii) your mailing address, and (iv)a statement that you do not wish to resolve disputes with Latch through arbitration. If Latch makes any changes to the Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section of this EULA (other than a change to the address at which Latch will receive notices of dispute, opt-out notices, or rejections of future changes to the Arbitration and Clause Action Waiver section), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to the address set forth in this Section 16(b). It is not necessary to send us a rejection of a future change to the Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section of this EULA if you had properly opted out of the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this Section 16 within the first 30 days after you first accepted this EULA. If you have not properly opted out of the arbitration and class-action waiver provisions in this Section 16, by rejecting a future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this arbitration provision, as modified by any changes you did not reject. This notification affects this EULA only; if you previously entered into other arbitration agreements with Latch or enter into other such agreements in the future, your notification that you are opting out of the arbitration provision in this EULA shall not affect the other arbitration agreements between you and Latch.
      3. Severability. If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section will be null and void. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with us.
  16. MISCELLANEOUS. This EULA, together with the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy and any other applicable documentation provided to you by Latch, are the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the Software and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals (whether oral, written or electronic) between you and us with respect to the Software. If any provision of this EULA is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that this EULA will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein shall not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. This EULA is personal to you, and is not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with our prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or delegate any of our rights and obligations hereunder without consent. We shall not be liable for any failure to perform our obligations hereunder where such failure results from any cause beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of this EULA and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect. All notices under this EULA will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given when received, if personally delivered or sent by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested; when receipt is electronically confirmed, if transmitted by e-mail; or the day after it is sent, if sent for next day delivery by recognized overnight delivery service. Electronic notices should be sent to contact@latch.com. Our failure to enforce any part of this EULA shall not constitute a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part of this EULA. In order for any waiver of this EULA to be binding, we must provide you with written notice of such waiver through one of our authorized representatives. The section and paragraph headings in this EULA are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation. Any use of “including” “for example” or “such as” in this EULA shall be read as being followed by “without limitation” where appropriate.
