You understand that use of the Services may result in charges to you for the services or goods you receive from a Third Party Provider ("Charges").

Payment of the Charges in such manner shall be considered the same as payment made directly by you to the Third Party Provider. Charges will be inclusive of applicable taxes where required by law. Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by 4Schoolers. You retain the right to request lower Charges from a Third Party Provider for services or goods received by you from such Third Party Provider at the time you receive such services or goods. 4Schoolers will respond accordingly to any request from a Third Party Provider to modify the Charges for a particular service or good.
All Charges are due immediately and payment will be facilitated by 4Schoolers using the preferred payment method designated in your Account, after which 4Schoolers will send you a receipt by email. If your primary Account payment method is determined to be expired, invalid or otherwise not able to be charged, you agree that 4Schoolers may, as the Third Party Provider's limited payment collection agent, use a secondary payment method in your Account, if available.
As between you and 4Schoolers, 4Schoolers reserves the right to establish, remove and/or revise Charges for any or all services or goods obtained through the use of the Services at any time in 4Schoolers's sole discretion. Further, you acknowledge and agree that Charges applicable in certain geographical areas may increase substantially during times of high demand. 4Schoolers will use reasonable efforts to inform you of Charges that may apply, provided that you will be responsible for Charges incurred under your Account regardless of your awareness of such Charges or the amounts thereof. 4Schoolers may from time to time provide certain users with promotional offers and discounts that may result in different amounts charged for the same or similar services or goods obtained through the use of the Services, and you agree that such promotional offers and discounts, unless also made available to you, shall have no bearing on your use of the Services or the Charges applied to you. You may elect to cancel your request for services or goods from a Third Party Provider at any time prior to such Third Party Provider's arrival, in which case you may be charged a cancellation fee.
Fees
- Ride Fees. Ride Fees consist of a base price and incremental charges based on the duration and distance of your ride. For particularly short rides, minimum Ride Fees may apply. For 4Schoolers Line rides and select routes, Ride Fees may be quoted in advance. Ride Fees may be subject to a multiplier at times of high demand of the Services ("Prime Time") as determined by 4Schoolers. We will use reasonable efforts to inform you of any Prime Time multipliers in effect at the time you request a ride.
- Trust & Service Fee. 4Schoolers may assess a per-ride "Trust & Service Fee" to offset 4Schoolers’s expenses, including but not limited to those related to promoting trust and safety on the 4Schoolers platform as well as other operational costs of running the 4Schoolers Platform. Such expenses are dynamic and may or may not exceed 4Schoolers’s Trust & Service Fee collections in certain markets. Excess Trust & Service Fee collections, if any, will be deemed general revenue.
- Cancellation Fee. In the event that you cancel a ride request on the 4Schoolers Platform more than 5 minutes after such request is made, make repeated or frequent cancellations, or fail to show up for your ride in a timely manner, you agree to pay a "Cancellation Fee". We may also assess a Cancellation Fee against you if we suspect that you have intentionally cancelled rides to disrupt the 4Schoolers Platform or the provision of Services.
- Damage Fee. If a Driver reports that you have materially damaged the Driver's vehicle, you agree to pay a "Damage Fee" of up to $250 depending on the extent of the damage (as determined by 4Schoolers in its sole discretion), towards vehicle repair or cleaning. 4Schoolers reserves the right (but is not obligated) to verify or otherwise require documentation of damages prior to processing the Damage Fee.

Other fees, tolls, and surcharges may apply to your ride, including: actual or anticipated airport fees, state or local fees, tolls (and return tolls in select instances), and processing fees for split payments. In addition, where required by law 4Schoolers will collect applicable taxes. See your market’s 4Schoolers Cities page for details on other Charges that may apply. Any tips will be provided entirely to the applicable Driver.
You agree not to report as fraudulent, lost or stolen any form of payment which you have used in conjunction with payment for Services, for which you do not have a good faith reason to believe is in fact fraudulent, lost or stolen. You agree not to report as unauthorized any charge for Services for which you do not have a good faith reason to believe is in fact unauthorized. You agree that, absent good faith, in the event of any such report you shall be liable to us for such charge or obligation plus up to an additional $100 administrative fee. The liability specified in this paragraph will not limit 4Schoolers’s rights or any other liability you may have for any other reason, including a breach of any other provision of these Terms.
You agree that you shall be liable for any and all charges resulting from the use of your account for Services– whether or not they are made by you.

In the event that a Third Party Provider reports the need for Repair or Cleaning, and such Repair or Cleaning request is verified by 4Schoolers in 4Schoolers's reasonable discretion, 4Schoolers reserves the right to facilitate payment for the reasonable cost of such Repair or Cleaning on behalf of the Third Party Provider using your payment method designated in your Account. Such amounts will be transferred by 4Schoolers to the applicable Third Party Provider and are non-refundable.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor."
6. Dispute Resolution
Arbitration.
You agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services (collectively, "Disputes") will be settled by binding arbitration between you and 4Schoolers, except that each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. You acknowledge and agree that you and 4Schoolers are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and 4Schoolers otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this "Dispute Resolution" section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this "Dispute Resolution" section will survive any termination of these Terms.
Arbitration Rules and Governing Law.
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the "AAA Rules") then in effect, except as modified by this "Dispute Resolution" section. (The AAA Rules are available at
www.adr.org/arb_med or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.
Arbitration Process.
A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Massachusetts and will be selected by the parties from the AAA's roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.
Arbitration Location and Procedure.
Unless you and 4Schoolers otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10, 000 then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and 4Schoolers submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.
Arbitrator's Decision.
The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator's decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator's award damages must be consistent with the terms of the "Limitation of Liability" section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant's individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law. 4Schoolers will not seek, and hereby waives all rights 4Schoolers may have under applicable law to recover, attorneys' fees and expenses if 4Schoolers prevail in arbitration.
Fees.
Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $15,000, 4Schoolers will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).
Class Action Waiver.
WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE SERVICE FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS 4SCHOOLERS AGREES OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU, AND (IF APPLICABLE) ON BEHALF OF YOUR ACCOUNT PASSENGERS AND YOUR OTHER PASSENGERS, AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU, AND (IF APPLICABLE) YOUR ACCOUNT PASSENGERS AND YOUR OTHER PASSENGERS, AND 4SCHOOLERS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND.

仲裁。
您同意,因本条款或其违反、终止、执行、解释或有效性或服务的使用而引起的或与之相关的任何争议、索赔或争议(统称为“争议”)将通过您和 4Schoolers 之间具有约束力的仲裁来解决,但各方保留在小额索赔法院提起个人诉讼的权利,以及在有管辖权的法院寻求禁令或其他衡平法救济的权利,以防止实际或威胁的侵权、盗用或违反一方的权利。版权、商标、商业秘密、专利或其他知识产权。您承认并同意,您和 4Schoolers 均放弃陪审团审判的权利,或作为原告或集体参与任何所谓的集体诉讼或代表程序的权利。此外,除非您和 4Schoolers 另行书面同意,否则仲裁员不得合并一人以上的索赔,并且不得以其他方式主持任何形式的任何集体或代表程序。如果该特定段落被认为无法执行,则整个“争议解决”部分将被视为无效。除前一句另有规定外,本“争议解决”部分在本条款终止后仍然有效。

想要提起仲裁的一方必须按照 AAA 规则的规定向另一方提供书面仲裁要求。仲裁员将是一名退休法官或在马萨诸塞州获得律师执业资格的律师,并将由双方从 AAA 的消费者争议仲裁员名册中选出。如果双方无法在提交仲裁要求后七 (7) 天内就仲裁员达成一致,则 AAA 将根据 AAA 规则指定仲裁员。
仲裁地点和程序。
除非您和 4Schoolers 另有约定,仲裁将在您居住的县进行。如果您的索赔不超过 10, 000 美元,则仲裁将仅根据您和 4Schoolers 向仲裁员提交的文件进行,除非您请求举行听证会或仲裁员确定有必要举行听证会。如果您的索赔超过 10,000 美元,您获得听证会的权利将由 AAA 规则决定。根据 AAA 规则,仲裁员将有权酌情决定双方合理交换信息,以符合仲裁的快速性质。
仲裁员的决定。
仲裁员将在 AAA 规则规定的期限内作出裁决。仲裁员的决定将包括仲裁员做出裁决所依据的基本调查结果和结论。仲裁裁决的判决可以由任何有管辖权的法院作出。仲裁员裁决的损害赔偿必须与上述“责任限制”部分中有关一方可能承担责任的损害赔偿类型和金额的条款一致。仲裁员只能裁定有利于索赔人的宣告性或禁令性救济,并且仅限于提供索赔人个人索赔所保证的救济所必需的范围内。如果您在仲裁中获胜,您将有权在适用法律规定的范围内获得律师费和开支的裁决。如果 4Schoolers 在仲裁中获胜,4Schoolers 不会寻求并特此放弃根据适用法律追回律师费和开支的所有权利。
