SANLAND TERMS OF SERVICE

Last Updated: January 20th, 2022

Welcome to the San Landscape Design (“SANLAND”) website located at http://sanlandscape.com
(the “Site”). Please read these Terms of Service (the “Terms”) and our Privacy Policy [sanlandscape.com/terms-and-conditions] (“Privacy Policy”) carefully because they govern your use of our Site and our online landscape design services accessible via our Site. To make these Terms easier to read, the Site and our services are collectively called the “Services.”

1. Agreement to Terms. By using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by these Terms, do not use the Services. If you are accessing and using the Services on behalf of a company (such as your employer) or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that company or other legal entity to these Terms. In that case, “you” and “your” also will refer to that company or other legal entity.

2. Privacy Policy. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information on how we collect, use and disclose information from our users. You acknowledge and agree that your use of the Services is subject to our Privacy Policy.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND SANLAND THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 16 “DISPUTE RESOLUTION” BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION (INCLUDING THE PROCEDURE TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION). 

3. Changes to Terms or Services. We may update the Terms at any time, in our sole discretion. If we do so, we’ll let you know either by posting the updated Terms on the Site or through other communications. It’s important that you review the Terms whenever we update them. If you continue to use the Services after we have posted updated Terms, you are agreeing to be bound by the updated Terms. If you don’t agree to be bound by the updated Terms, then, except as otherwise provided in Section 16(f) “Effect of Changes on Arbitration,” you may not use the Services anymore. Because our Services are evolving over time, we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without notice, at our sole discretion.

4. Who May Use the Services?

(a) Eligibility. You may use the Services only if you are 18 years or older and capable of forming a binding contract with SANLAND and are not barred from using the Services under applicable law.  

(b) Registration and Your Information. If you want to use certain features of the Services, you’ll have to create a design profile (“Design Profile”). You can do this by completing your Design Profile on the Site by providing certain information about you, including your name, contact information (address, email, telephone) and design preferences. 

(c) Accuracy of Design Profile Information. It’s important that you provide us with accurate, complete and up-to-date information for your Design Profile and you agree to update such information to keep it accurate, complete and up-to-date. If you don’t, we might have to suspend or terminate your use of the Services. You agree that you won’t disclose your Design Profile password to anyone and you’ll notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your Design Profile. You’re responsible for all activities that occur under your Design Profile, whether or not you know about them.

5. Feedback. We welcome feedback, comments and suggestions for improvements to the Services (“Feedback”). You can submit Feedback by emailing us at [email protected]. You grant to us a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any purpose.

6. Payments. SANLAND offers different design packages, including the Partial Yard, Full Yard and Exterior Improvement packages, (collectively, the “Design Package(s)”) to users who have created a Design Profile. SANLAND requires different payments for use of the Services, depending on which Design Package is selected by the user. More information on the different Design Packages and pricings can be found at http://sanlandscape.com/design-packages/.

(a) General. When you make a payment (a “Transaction”), you expressly authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date and security code of your credit card and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information”). When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to third parties so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected (plus any applicable taxes and other charges). You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity before completing your Transaction (such information is included within the definition of Payment Information).

(b) Cancelling a Payment. If no work has been completed on your project, you may cancel a  Transaction for a full refund within ten (10) calendar days of your initial purchase, less a processing fee of 10% of the total purchase amount. You may cancel a Transaction for a 50% refund within ten (10) calendar days of your initial purchase if only the design draft has been completed. AFTER THAT TEN (10) CALENDAR DAYS OF THE INITIAL PURCHASE, YOUR PURCHASE IS FINAL AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CANCEL THE PURCHASE AND/OR RECEIVE A REFUND OF YOUR PAYMENT. But if something unexpected happens in the course of completing a Transaction, we reserve the right to cancel your Transaction for any reason; if we cancel your Transaction we’ll refund any payment you have already remitted to us for such Transaction, less a 10% processing fee and any amounts for work already completed. To cancel a Transaction, you can send an email to [email protected]. If you cancel, your right to use the Services will terminate immediately.

(a) Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each 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 or Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and SANLAND agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and SANLAND are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.

(c) Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org

If your claim is for U.S. $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic or video-conference hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules.  If your claim exceeds U.S. $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the City of New York, County of New York, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.

(d) Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules.

(e) Class Action Waiver.  YOU AND SANLAND 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, if the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. 

(f) Severability. If an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.

17. General Terms.

(a) Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between SANLAND and you regarding the Services, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between SANLAND and you regarding the Services.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without SANLAND’s prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null and void. SANLAND may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction.

For notices made by e-mail, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.

(c) Waiver of Rights. SANLAND’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of SANLAND. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.

·     We Use Service Providers. We may share any information we receive with service providers. The types of service providers (processors) to whom we entrust Personal Information include service providers for: (i) provision of IT and related services; (ii) provision of information and services you have requested; (iii) payment processing such as Stripe and Squarespace; (iv) customer service activities; and (v) the provision of the Site and Services. 

·     Business Partners. We may provide Personal Information to business partners with whom we jointly offer products or services. In such cases, our business partner’s name will appear along with ours.

·     Local Contractors. Once a Deliverable has been provided to you and your design has been finalized, we may provide Personal Information to local, vetted contractors within SANLAND’s network of contractors, or another qualified local contractor that SANLAND searches for, who will implement your design and create a finished product based on your design. Such Personal Information will be shared solely as necessary to match you to a local contractor.

·     Marketing – Interest-Based Advertising and Third-Party Marketing.  Through our Services, SANLAND may allow third party advertising partners to set Technologies and other tracking tools to collect information regarding your activities and your device (e.g., your IP address, page(s) visited, time of day). We may also combine and share such information and other information (such as demographic information and past purchase history) with third party advertising partners. These advertising partners may use this information (and similar information collected from other websites) for purposes of delivering targeted advertisements to you when you visit third party websites within their networks. This practice is commonly referred to as “interest-based advertising” or “online behavioral advertising.” We may allow access to other data collected by the Site and Services to share information that may be useful, relevant, valuable or otherwise of interest to you. If you prefer not to share your Personal Information with third party advertising partners, you may follow the instructions below.

·     Disclosures to Protect Us or Others. We may access, preserve, and disclose your Personal Information, other account information, and content if we believe doing so is required or appropriate to: (i) comply with law enforcement or national security requests and legal process, such as a court order or subpoena; (ii) respond to your requests; (iii) protect your, our or others’ rights, property, or safety; (iv) to enforce our policies or contracts; (v) to collect amounts owed to us; (vi) when we believe disclosure is necessary or appropriate to prevent physical harm or financial loss or in connection with an investigation or prosecution of suspected or actual illegal activity; or (vii) if we, in good faith, believe that disclosure is otherwise necessary or advisable.

·     Merger, Sale, or Other Asset Transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing due diligence, reorganization, bankruptcy, receivership, purchase or sale of assets, or transition of service to another provider, then your information may be sold or transferred as part of such a transaction as permitted by law and/or contract.
