Kasual™
Terms and Conditions

These Terms and Conditions Agreement (this “Agreement”) are entered into by and between Yumi Limited  (“Yumi” or “we” or “us”) and you (“you” or “your”) concerning your use of (including any access to) the Kasual mobile app (the “App”), the Kasual site currently located at https://www.kasualapp.com (the “Site”) or any other platforms or services that We may offer (collectively, the “Services”).   You and Yumi may also be referred to individually as a “Party” and, collectively, as the “Parties.”

IT IS ESSENTIAL THAT YOU READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE AS THEY DESCRIBE AND, IN SOME CASES, LIMIT YOUR RIGHTS.

YOUR ACCESS OR USE OF THIS APP, THE SITE OR ANY OF THE SERVICES INDICATES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS AGREEMENT. If you do not agree with or do not wish to be bound by any provision of this Agreement, cease using the Services immediately.

THE APP AND THE SITE ARE NOT INTENDED FOR PERSONS UNDER 18 YEARS OF AGE.

This Agreement contains a mandatory arbitration provision that, as further set forth in Section 16.2 below, requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or any other court proceedings, or class actions of any kind.

Therefore, the Parties agree as follows:

1. Changes to this Agreement.

We may update or modify this Agreement from time to time by notifying you through any reasonable means, including by posting a revised Agreement through the App or Site. Any such changes will not apply to any dispute between you and us arising prior to the date on which we posted the revised Agreement incorporating such changes, or otherwise notified you of such changes.

If you are a Member with a paid Membership Plan, changes to this Agreement will become binding only upon renewal of your Membership, unless otherwise stated. Members will be notified of material changes by email. For all other users, it is your responsibility to review the Agreement periodically for changes.

Your continued use of the Services following any changes to this Agreement will constitute your acceptance of such changes. The “Last Updated” legend above indicates when this Agreement was last changed.

We may, at any time and without liability, modify or discontinue all or part of the Services; charge, modify or waive any fees required to use the Services; or offer features or services to some users but not others.

“Third Party Materials” means information, products, services and other materials made available by third parties.

“User” means any person who uses the App to connect with any other person.

“User Content” means the profile (including personal information), photographs, videos, chat and messages (text or voice) of each User that such User elects to post publicly or privately on or through the App.

3. The App

You do not have to purchase a Membership or any other service or product to use the App. Since you are not required to identify yourself, the App is specific to the device you are using and will remember your device but, if you use multiple devices, you will have to create a profile on each device.

The App is licensed (not sold) to end users. Subject to your compliance with this Agreement, and solely for as long as We permit you to use the App, we hereby permit you, on a limited, non-exclusive, revocable, non-transferable, non-sublicensable basis, to download and use the App to one or more mobile devices that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial use. If you fail to comply with any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, you must immediately cease using the App and remove (that is, uninstall and delete) the App from your mobile device.

There may be photographs, videos, User Content and other information on the App which are available for viewing whether or not you are a Member.  Any and all restrictions, rules, ownership rights, disclaimers and waivers provided herein shall apply equally to all such information available on or through the App whether you are a Member or not.

4.  In-App Purchases.

4.1 In-App Purchases.

From time to time, Yumi may offer products and services for purchase through the App Store ℠, Google Play or other application platforms (“in app purchases”), such as Memberships and Boosts. If you choose to make an in app purchase, you will be prompted to enter details for your account with the mobile platform you are using (e.g., Apple, Android, etc.) (“your IAP Account”), and your IAP Account will be charged for the in app purchase in accordance with the terms disclosed to you at the time of purchase as well as the general terms for in app purchases that apply to your IAP Account.

If you purchase an auto-recurring periodic subscription through an in app purchase, your IAP Account will be billed continuously for the subscription until you cancel in accordance with the platform terms. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for an additional equivalent period, at the price you agreed to when subscribing.

If you do not wish your subscription to renew automatically, or if you want to change or terminate your subscription, you will need to log in to your IAP account and follow instructions to cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the App from your device.

Deleting your account or deleting the App from your device does not cancel your subscription and, in such case, we will retain all funds charged to your IAP Account until you cancel your subscription through your IAP Account. In all cases, please refer to the terms of your application platform that apply to your in app purchases.

Because the App may be utilized without a subscription, canceling your subscription does not remove your account from the App. If you wish to fully delete your account, you must delete your account in the App.

4.2 Memberships

If you purchase a Membership, you shall have a limited, non-exclusive license to access, through the App, the User Content.   When you join as a Member, you will receive the benefits provided for the type of Membership you purchase, as described on the Subscription Page of the App.

Memberships are purchased through the Apple App Store or Google Play, which will require a valid payment card on which you will be charged the subscription fee based on the Membership Plan you chose on the Subscription Page – monthly, quarterly or semi-annually.

Membership Plans automatically renew until terminated by you or us, as provided herein.  Upon renewal, the method of payment provided by you shall be charged the Membership Fee as specified for the Membership Plan you selected.  In the event the payment method provided by you is declined, Apple will notify you and you will have the opportunity to provide an alternative method of payment within Sixteen (16) business days of notice of decline, or Google will notify you and you will have the opportunity to provide an alternative method of payment within Fourteen (14) business days of notice of decline. If a payment is not effectively processed, your Membership will be terminated.

4.3  Termination

Yumi reserves the right to change its prices for the Membership Plans at any time PROVIDED that no increases in prices will be effective for any Membership Plan that has already commenced.

In addition to termination for failure of payment, any Membership Plan and/or this Agreement may be terminated by either you or Yumi at any time, for any or no reason.

In the event of a termination by you other than on the renewal date of a Membership Term,

(a) you will continue to have such level of access to User Content as provided under the Membership Plan you had at the time of termination for the remainder of the then-current Membership Term; and

(b) except as required by applicable law, there will be no refunds, discounts or credits for amounts paid with respect to any portion of the then-current Membership Term remaining after the effective date of termination regardless of reason.

At the conclusion of the Membership Term during which you request termination,

(a) you will not be billed for any recurring Membership Fees; and

(b) you will no longer have access to the User Content.

In the case of a termination of a Membership Plan by Yumi due to a breach by you of this Agreement, Yumi reserves the right to immediately suspend or cease access to the Services and User Content and/or claim additional damages as Yumi determines to be appropriate and warranted.

5. State-Specific Cancellation Rights

Generally, all purchases are final and nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods, except if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds.

For Users residing in Arizona, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island or Wisconsin: You may cancel your auto-renewing subscription purchased through an in app purchase at any time prior to midnight of the third business day following the date you subscribed, without penalty or obligation.

If this right applies to you and you made your subscription through your IAP Account (via the Apple App Store or Google Play), your refund request must be directed to the application platform through which the purchase was made, not to us. Please refer to the terms of your applicable IAP Account for further instructions on managing cancellations and refunds.

6.3  Limited License. For purposes of clarity, you retain ownership of User Content you Post. You hereby grant to us, our Affiliates, licensees and successors an irrevocable, perpetual, non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, fully paid-up, worldwide right and license to (i) use, copy, store, perform, display, reproduce, record, play, adapt, modify and distribute the User Content, (ii) prepare derivative works of the User Content or incorporate the User Content into other works for any purpose, and (iii) grant and authorize sublicenses of the foregoing in any media now known or hereafter created.

The Services may include inaccuracies, errors and materials that violate or conflict with this Agreement. Additionally, third parties may make unauthorized alterations to the Services. If you become aware of any such alteration, contact us at [email protected] with a description of such alteration and its location on the Services.

14. Assumption of Risk and Waivers.

You acknowledge and understand that engaging with people you meet online or via an app has inherent risks, including psychological, emotional, financial and even physical injury, and that those risks may be heightened by the limited or no personal information, background or context typically available in such interactions.

You expressly and unconditionally assume any risks and waive any and all claims against Yumi, regardless the bases upon which such claim(s) may be made, that may be based on, arise in connection with or be related to any of the following acts, circumstances or conditions, and regardless of the source or the cause of the issue including but not limited to failures of third-party applications, applications with which the App interacts or suggestions provided in the App:

(a) any personal injury to you or anyone else, whether physical, emotional, psychological or financial, relating to or caused by any Encounter or any third-party goods and services depicted on the Services;

(b) any unauthorized person uses your account to access the App with any result, including but not limited to making changes in authorizations or your User Content;

(c) the App is partially or totally inoperative or inaccessible, or the quality or resolution thereof on your device(s) is not as indicated in the Documentation;

(i) deletion, corruption or destruction of any of your account information or User Content.

No waiver by Yumi of any breach by you of any condition or provision of this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver of any similar or dissimilar provision or condition at the same or any prior or subsequent time, nor shall the failure of or delay by Yumi in exercising any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement operate as a waiver to preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power, or privilege.

15. Limitation of Liability.

To the extent permitted by law, in no event shall Yumi have any liability to you for any indirect, special, incidental, punitive, or consequential damages (including for loss of profit, revenue, or data) arising out of or in connection with the Services, User Content or this Agreement, however caused, and under whatever cause of action or theory of liability brought (including under any contract, negligence, indemnification or other tort theory of liability) even if advised of the possibility of such damages.  To the extent permitted by applicable law, Yumi’s total cumulative liability to you or any third-party arising out of or in connection with the Services, User Content or this Agreement, from all causes of action and all theories of liability, will be limited to and will not exceed the greater of the Membership Fees (if you are a Member) paid by you during the Twelve (12) months immediately preceding the claim or One Hundred U.S. Dollars ($100.00).  The Parties agree that this section represents a reasonable allocation of risk.

17. Governing Law and Venue.

This Agreement will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong, without giving effect to any principles of conflict of laws.

18. Dispute Resolution.

18.1 Disputes Between Users On and Through the App.

If and to the extent a dispute arises between you and another User relating to User Content or an Encounter exclusively on and through the App, and other than a matter relating to an Encounter outside of the App or a matter which involves a criminal act under applicable law, and to the extent permitted by law, you agree that all such disputes will be resolved exclusively by Yumi, in Yumi’s sole and absolute discretion, that you waive your right, to the extent permitted by law, to maintain legal action therefor in any court of law and that in resolving any such dispute, Yumi may consider whatever evidence Yumi deems appropriate.

All decisions by Yumi shall be final and non-appealable.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any Party may bring an action in any court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration under this Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award, or to seek any provisional remedy, including injunctive or similar relief, without posting a bond or other security.  Otherwise, no Party shall initiate or prosecute any lawsuit or administrative action in any way related to any Dispute. Any such legal action or proceeding arising under this Agreement will be brought exclusively in courts located in Hong Kong, and the Parties irrevocably consent to personal jurisdiction and venue therein.  The prevailing Party in any such proceeding shall be entitled to recover its cost and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in such proceeding, including enforcement of any judgment.

EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT THAT IT MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION, OR IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BASED UPON,  RELATING TO OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, USE OF THE SERVICES, USER CONTENT OR PARTICIPATION IN ANY OF THE ACTIVITIES OR USE OF ANY OF THE PRODUCTS INCLUDED OR DEPICTED IN THE SERVICES (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF THE OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
