MISE À JOUR DE NOS CONDITIONS GÉNÉRALES DE VENTE

×

Afin de mieux vous accompagner dans votre expérience FrenchFounders, nous avons
mis à jour nos Conditions Générales de Vente, et notamment la procédure de
renouvellement de votre membership. Merci d’en prendre connaissance et de les
accepter.

ACCEPTANCE OF THE AGREEMENT

The following agreement, (”Agreement”) is entered into by and between you and
FrenchFounders Inc., a for-profit Delaware corporation (“FrenchFounders”,
“Company“, “we“, “us” or “our“). This Agreement governs your access to and use
of our website, www.frenchfounders.com (the “Site”), your purchase or use of our
application (“App”), and membership with FrenchFounders (“Membership”), along
with any other services offered by us, whether through the Site or otherwise
(collectively and together with the Site, the “Services”).

Please read this Agreement carefully. By accessing, browsing, paying for or
otherwise using the Services or by clicking to accept or agree to the Agreement
when this option is made available to you, you (1) acknowledge that you have
read and understood this Agreement, (2) represent and warrant that you meet all
of our eligibility requirements for using the Services as described in this
Agreement, and (3) accept and agree to be bound by this Agreement, including any
other terms applicable to the Services that are incorporated herein by
reference. If you are using the Services on behalf of an entity, you are
agreeing to this Agreement for that entity and are representing to us that you
have the authority to bind that entity to this Agreement (in which case “you”
will refer to that entity). If you do not accept this Agreement or do not
satisfy the eligibility requirements set forth below, you may not access or use
the Services.

PRIVACY POLICY

If you would like to know more about how we collect, use, and treat your
information when you use, and participation in, the Services offered by the
Company please refer to our privacy policy located at
https://www.frenchfounders.com/page/privacy/ (the “Privacy Policy”).

CHANGES TO THE AGREEMENT

We reserve the right to update and revise this Agreement at any time. We will
make sure to also change the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page so you
can tell if this Agreement has changed since your last visit. Any such changes
are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use
of the Services thereafter. Please review this Agreement regularly because once
we post any changes, your continued use of the Services constitutes your
acceptance of the revised Agreement. If you disagree to any such changes, you
must notify us in writing at legal@frenchfounders.com that you wish to terminate
your Agreement and Membership because of such changes. Your Membership will
terminate within three working days of our receipt of your termination notice
and we will refund you the fees and charges applicable to your Membership on a
pro-rata basis.

PURCHASE OF MEMBERSHIP

Our various Membership types and associated fees and charges can be found at
%memberships_link% and will include the benefits and Services further set out at
this page (in accordance with the type of Membership for which you subscribe)
and/or as notified to you by FrenchFounders from time to time.

If you purchase a Membership from the Site and/or through other communication
means with us, the terms of sale provided in this section apply to you, as well
as any other specific rules, usage restrictions, or procedures that we may
provide to you in relation to your purchase (including your “Club Membership

You agree to provide your payment information at the time you purchase or renew
your membership (as applicable) on the Site. You must provide Company with a
valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us)
(“Payment Provider”), or purchase order information as a condition to signing up
for the Services. Your Payment Provider agreement governs your use of the
designated credit card, and you must refer to that agreement and not the
Agreement to determine your rights and liabilities. By providing Company with
your credit card number and associated payment information, you agree that
Company is authorized to immediately invoice your account for all fees and
charges due and payable to Company hereunder and that no additional notice or
consent is required. You agree to immediately notify Company of any change in
your billing address or the credit card used for payment hereunder. Company

upon posting on Company Site and/or App or by e-mail delivery to you.

Purchase of a Membership must be for your personal business use only. Transfer

FOR YOUR MEMBERSHIP(S), UNLESS YOU TERMINATE YOUR MEMBERSHIP(S) IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE TERMS SET OUT UNDER “TERMINATION, CANCELLATION OR SUSPENSION OF
MEMBERSHIP” BELOW. We will withdraw your Membership fee fifteen (15) days prior
to any renewal date (provided you do not cancel your Membership in accordance

renewal date to update it on your account settings. This provision is applicable
unless otherwise prohibited, and/or to the extent permitted, by applicable laws,
rules or regulations.

CHANGING FEES AND CHARGES

We may at any time and from time to time, in our sole discretion, change the

term, as applicable).

This Agreement will remain in full force and effect while you use any of the
Services.

All Memberships are non-refundable and cannot be suspended unless otherwise
specified in writing by FrenchFounders. Your Membership will renew automatically
annually, unless you give us written notice that you would like to terminate
your Membership, at least fifteen (15) days prior to the date on which your
Membership is meant to renew, by accessing your account settings and ticking the
relevant non-renewal box and/or by clicking on the relevant link in the notice
of renewal we will send you approximately forty-five (45) days prior to the
renewal date. You can access your account settings and tick the relevant
non-renewal box at any time during the then-current term of your Membership up

ticking will count for the following Membership year). This provision is
applicable unless otherwise prohibited, and/or to the extent permitted, by
applicable laws, rules or regulations.

Arbitration Request, The Foundery, 27 West, 20th Street, Suite 800, New York, NY
10011. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative
dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims, counterclaims, or
request for relief under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and
interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined
Arbitration Rules and procedures available at
http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other disputes shall
be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules
and Procedures, available at
http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS’s rules are also
available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. If JAMS is not
available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.
If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay JAMS’s filing,
administrative, hearing and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from JAMS,
Company will pay them for you. In addition, Company will reimburse all such
JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for disputes, claims,
or requests for relief totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator
determines the claims are frivolous.

You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written
submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually
agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be
entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Authority of Arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a)
determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (b)
resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability
or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any
assertion that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or
voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you
and Company. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other
matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the
authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The
arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any
non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law,
the arbitral forum’s rules, and the Agreement (including the Arbitration
Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision
describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based,
including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same
authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law
would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.

Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND COMPANY HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND
STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY.
You and Company are instead electing that all disputes, claims, or requests for
relief shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except
as specified in this Arbitration Agreement. An arbitrator can award on an
individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow this
Agreement as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration,
and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.

Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief. ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND
REQUESTS FOR RELIEF WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE
ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY
INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER
CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any
of this subsection’s limitations as to a given dispute, claim, or request for
relief, then such aspect must be severed from the arbitration and brought into
the State or Federal Courts located in the State of New York. All other
disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be arbitrated.

30-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this
Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to:

will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no
effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may
enter in the future, with us.

of your relationship with Company.
