4.1 Access to the Services.
At present the Services are free to access, but in order to access a majority of the features offered in the Services, you will be required to submit basic personal information.
4.2 Your Account.
You are required to create an account with OrangeCone through the OrangeCone Site or OrangeCone Application (“Account”) in order to use the Reservation Services. You are not permitted to register or maintain more than one (1) Account. We reserve the right to suspend or delete your Accounts if we believe that you are maintaining multiple Accounts or believe you have breached these Terms & Conditions in any way. When registering for an Account, you must provide true, accurate, current and complete data about yourself on the OrangeCone registration form. You agree that you will not falsify any information about your identity, or impersonate another identity, or create an account with a fictitious identity. You also agree to promptly update your Account data to keep it true, accurate, current, and complete. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your Account and the information in your Account, and you are solely responsible for all use of your Account, whether or not authorized by you. You agree to immediately notify OrangeCone of any unauthorized use of your Account or any other breach of security related to your use of the Services. OrangeCone will not be liable for any misuse or unauthorized access to any User’s Account.
4.3 Communications from OrangeCone.
By accepting these Terms & Conditions you agree to receive communications from OrangeCone and the Services. The OrangeCone Applications may use GPS locator capabilities to identify your location at the time of use. OrangeCone may send you SMS text messages to provide you information regarding the Services or as otherwise described in our OrangeCone Privacy Policy. You hereby consent to receiving such SMS text messages and are responsible for any associated charges from your cellular provider. The communication standards for the Services include, but are not limited to: Email, SMS, in-app messaging, and web-based browser technology. In order to use the OrangeCone Applications, you must maintain an active account with a carrier of electronic communications through mobile devices and you may not use a prepaid cellular phone to access the Services.
4.4 User-Generated Content.
The Services provide a platform for Users to create and publish content of their creation. By publishing and displaying content of any kind on the OrangeCone Site or through the OrangeCone Applications you thereby assign and transfer copyright, and all other rights to such content, to OrangeCone. For the avoidance of doubt we are permitted to use any content posted by you to the Services for any of our business purposes. This right will still apply after the termination of your registration or membership. You may not use the Services for any unlawful purpose or any purpose that violates any local policies, or to publish any content that may, at OrangeCone’s sole discretion, be deemed offensive, inaccurate, misleading, defamatory, fraudulent, or illegal. Users are not entitled to publish any content that could be construed as an advertisement or offer for anything other than parking spaces that fall within this set of Terms & Conditions. OrangeCone reserves the right to remove any content from the Services at any time at our sole discretion and without notice.
4.5 Promotional Uses.
By accepting these Terms & Conditions you agree to allow OrangeCone to use any of your quotes, photos or videos pertaining to OrangeCone, including images and videos of you, as part of OrangeCone’s media and promotional outreach.
4.6 Complaints and Disputes Between Users.
In the case of a dispute between you and another User, you agree that you will first attempt to resolve the matter through direct communication, through the Services, with the User.
In the event that the dispute cannot be resolved through direct communication, you may file a complaint and request that OrangeCone assist in resolving the matter. By doing so you authorize OrangeCone to deal with the dispute or complaint as we deem appropriate. OrangeCone will have the right to suspend, temporarily or permanently, the account of any User.
4.7 Cancellation Policy
(a) When Driver Cancels Reservation
The OrangeCone Site and the OrangeCone Application will allow the Owner to opt for either a Flexible or a Strict Cancellation Policy for Reservations.
The Flexible Cancellation Policy will entail a fully refundable payment within a limited time period. For a full refund, the Driver needs to cancel the reservation 24-hours prior to the commencement of the Reservation. If the Driver cancels the Reservation less than 24-hours before the start of the Reservation, the fee for the first day of the Reservation will not be refunded. If the Reservation has commenced, and the Driver opts to leave early, the Driver will not be refunded for the day he cancels the Reservation, and the day after the Driver cancels the Reservation. The driver will be refunded for any days remaining thereafter. If the Driver holds the service provided by the Owner to be inadequate in any way, a complaint needs to be filed within the first 24-hour period of the Reservation. OrangeCone will mediate disputes when necessary and make the final decision.
The Strict Cancellation Policy will entail a fully no-refundable payment. The parking fees paid, once the Reservation is confirmed, will be completely non-refundable. If the Driver holds the service provided by the Owner to be inadequate in any way, a complaint needs to be filed within the first 24-hour period of the Reservation. OrangeCone will mediate disputes when necessary and make the final decision.
Drivers can cancel any Reservation. Driver cancellations over the past 12-month period will be visible to Owner when Driver submits a Reservation request.
(b) When Owner Cancels Reservation
Owner can cancel a Reservation, notwithstanding his choice of Cancellation Policy, as above, which will only be applicable on the Driver.
If an Owner cancels a Reservation forty-eight (48) hours, or more, before the Reservation commences, the Owner will be charged a penalty of five-dollars ($5). If an Owner cancels a Reservation less than forty-eight (48) hours before the Reservation commences, the Owner will be charged a penalty of twenty-dollars ($20).
If the Owner cancels, with less than forty-eight (48) hours before the Reservation starts, two (2) times within six (6) months, OrangeCone reserves the right to suspend the Owner’s account for a period of up to six (6) months.
By creating a Listing, the Owner agrees to these Terms & Conditions, as well as this Cancellation Policy, and pre-authorizes OrangeCone to charge the payment method on file for any applicable cancellation fees or penalties. If the Owner does not have a payment method on file, they will be required to input one at the time of the cancellation request. The cancellation will not be completed until the Owner has entered a payment method and agreed to pay any cancellation fees or penalties.
4.8 Referral programs and promotional offers.
OrangeCone may choose to offer limited-time promotional offers or referral rewards programs. In order to be eligible for referral rewards, the Users referred by you must be brand new unregistered Users of the Services. They must also use the exact code given them by you to redeem an introductory offer or must sign up using the email or phone number with which you invited them. They must also complete a transaction as an Owner or Driver before you can be eligible to receive rewards. The rewards offered may be changed by OrangeCone at any time without notice. All promotional offers, coupon codes, introductory offers, account credits, or rewards may be changed, revoked, denied, or cancelled at any time without any notice and at OrangeCone’s discretion, whether already granted to the User or not yet accrued.
4.9 OrangeCone Promo Code Terms and Conditions.
Any OrangeCone promotional code or coupon in any form (the “Code”) issued by OrangeCone is subject to the following terms and conditions (“Promo Terms”). Your receipt and/or redemption of the Code constitute acceptance of and agreement with these Promo Terms. Other terms and conditions may apply to use of the OrangeCone Services. Specifically, without limitation, access to and use of the Service is subject to the OrangeCone Terms & Conditions.
The Code is only redeemable on the Services. A Code can be used only once and only one Code may be used per transaction. Codes are void if not obtained through authorized, legitimate channels, or if any part of the code is altered, duplicated, forged, counterfeited, or tampered with in any way or do not contain proper security devices (a “Nonconforming Code”). Any attempt to obtain or generate multiple Codes and/or nonconforming Codes and/or to use multiple names, email addresses, phone numbers, and/or any fraudulent or other non-permissible means to obtain or use Codes, as determined by OrangeCone in its sole discretion, will give OrangeCone the right to void the Code and disqualify the User. The Code has no cash value, and cannot be exchanged for cash or credit, except as required by law (in which case the value of the Code is deemed $0.001). The Code cannot be bought or sold and is void if sold or exchanged for compensation. Any unused value will be forfeited. Codes cannot be used for past purchases of Services or offers. Codes are void where prohibited by law.
If a Code is used in violation of these Terms, or if your use of the Code with the Services otherwise violates the Terms & Conditions, OrangeCone reserves the right to:
(a) cancel any transaction on the Services;
(b) When Owner Cancels Reservation
(c) charge your credit card for the full value of the Services ordered without the Code applied.
ORANGECONE AND ITS RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS MAKE NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE WITH RESPECT TO ANY CODE. YOU HEREBY RELEASE ORANGECONE AND ITS RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS, FROM AND AGAINST ANY AND ALL LIABILITY RELATING TO THESE PROMO TERMS OR THE CODE.

Occasionally, access to the Services may be restricted or blocked to allow for repairs, maintenance, or the introduction of new features.

You further agree, represent and warrant, that you will not use or access the Services in any manner that places yourself or any other person at risk of injury, and that you will abide by all traffic laws.

Upon receipt of a valid counter-notification, we will evaluate the counter-notification and determine whether to restore the content in question, unless we receive notice from the notification provider that a legal action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in the infringing activity. If you believe any of the Services violate your copyright, notify our copyright agent in writing. The contact information for our copyright agent is at the bottom of this section.

4.26 Severability.
If any part of these Terms & Conditions is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and Agreement shall continue in effect.
4.27 Assignment.
These Terms & Conditions, and the rights granted and obligations undertaken hereunder, may not be transferred, assigned or delegated in any manner by a User, but may be freely transferred, assigned, or delegated by OrangeCone.
4.28 Waiver.
Any waiver of any provision of these Terms & Conditions, or a delay by any party in the enforcement of any right hereunder, shall neither be construed as a continuing waiver nor create an expectation of non-enforcement of that or any other provision or right.
4.29 Arbitration and Venue.
Any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action (including the interpretation and scope of this clause) between you and the OrangeCone and Associated Parties or their successors or assigns shall exclusively be settled through binding and confidential arbitration in San Francisco County, California.
The Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator, certified by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. As modified by these Terms & Conditions, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “Arbitration Rules and Procedures”).
You and OrangeCone must abide by the following rules:
(a) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR ORANGECONE MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE 'PARTY\'S' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING;
(b) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF;
(c) the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law;
(d) the arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award;
(e) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and
(f) each side pays its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or OrangeCone may bring an individual action in small claims court. Further, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret shall not be subject to this arbitration agreement. Such claims shall be exclusively brought in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California. Additionally, notwithstanding this agreement to arbitrate, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before the state or federal courts located in San Francisco County, California in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and hereby agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within San Francisco County, California for such purpose. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to arbitrate.
With the exception of subparts (a) and (b) in this Section (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting part was not contained herein. If, however, either subpart (a) or (b) is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor OrangeCone shall be entitled to arbitration. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute shall be exclusively brought in state or federal court located in San Francisco County, California.
For more information on AAA, the Rules and Procedures, or the process for filing an arbitration claim, you may call AAA at 800-778-7879 or visit the AAA website at http://www.adr.org.
4.30 Choice of Law.
The Services are operated by a U.S. entity, and these Terms & Conditions is made under and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act, without giving effect to any principles that provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction.
