SEE SECTIONS 13(c) AND (d) FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THE AUTOMATIC RENEWAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO SUBSCRIPTIONS.

If you have any questions or comments, you may contact FreeHookup by writing to us at: FreeHookup, Inc., Attn: Customer Service, 989 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94103.

This Terms of Use Agreement (the "Agreement") is a legal agreement that governs our relationship with users and others that interact with FreeHookup, Inc. and our subsidiaries and affiliates ("FreeHookup," "we," or "us") in connection with the use of FreeHookup websites (including freehookup.dating) (the "Sites") and our Services (as defined below). FreeHookup currently makes services available through our Sites, applications, which include mobile applications and applications available on social networking sites and other platforms, and our downloadable products (the Sites, the applications, the downloadable products and all services provided by FreeHookup in connection therewith shall be referred to collectively as, the "Services"). FreeHookup may offer additional services or products or modify or revise any of the Services at our discretion, and this Agreement will apply to all additional services or products and all modified or revised Services unless otherwise indicated. FreeHookup also reserves the right to cease offering any of the Services. You agree that FreeHookup shall not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, revision, suspension or discontinuance of any of the Services.

Your use of certain Services may be subject to additional terms and conditions, and such terms and conditions will be either listed in this Agreement, or will be presented or accessible to you by FreeHookup when you sign up to use, or use, such Services ("Additional Terms"). All such Additional Terms are incorporated by reference into this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. This Agreement does not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with FreeHookup for products, services or otherwise.

All visitors to our Sites, whether registered or not, are "users" of the Services for purposes of this Agreement. If you register for the Services by creating an account, you become a "Member".

This Agreement and any policy or guideline of the Services may be modified by FreeHookup in its sole discretion at any time, with or without notice. Any changes or modifications will be effective immediately upon posting the revisions to the Site, and you waive any right you may have to receive specific notice of such changes or modifications. Your continued use of the Services after the posting of changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance of such changes or modifications; therefore, you should frequently review this Agreement and all applicable terms and policies to understand the terms that apply to your use of the Services. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must stop using the Services.

  1. ELECTRONIC RECORDS

    Because the Services are provided electronically, you must consent to FreeHookup's providing important information electronically if you wish to use the Services. You consent to being provided with this Agreement, notices, disclosures, information, policies and other materials in electronic form (collectively "Electronic Records"), rather than in paper form.

    Electronic Records will be provided on our Sites and Services or sent to the email address associated with your account. You may wish to print out all Electronic Records and keep them for your records.

    You may withdraw your consent to receive Electronic Records by contacting us in writing at the address provided above. However, the Services provided by FreeHookup are only available if you agree to receive Electronic Records, and you understand that withdrawing such consent will result in your account being deactivated.

    1. California. The following additional provisions(s) apply if you are a California subscriber (as determined by the zip code you use at the time of your subscription):

      1. If by reason of death or Disability (as defined below) you are unable to receive all services for which you have contracted, you and your estate may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payments for the Services other than those received before death or the onset of disability. If you have prepaid any amount for Services, so much of the amount prepaid that is allocable to Services that you have not received shall be promptly refunded to you and your representative. "Disability" means a condition which precludes you from physically using the Services specified in the contract during the term of disability and the condition is verified in writing by a physician designated and remunerated by you. The written verification of the physician shall be presented to FreeHookup. If the physician determines that the duration of the disability will be less than six months, you may extend the term of the contract for a period of six months at no additional charge to the buyer in lieu of cancellation.

      2. You acknowledge that the Services are accessible online and are offered in many locations internationally and that therefore, there is no physical dating service office. Thus, you acknowledge and agree that for purposes of California Civil Code¤ 1694.3(b), the term "Dating Service Office" shall mean any location where the Services are available. If you relocate your primary residence further than 50 miles from FreeHookup's Dating Service Office and you are unable to transfer the contract to a comparable facility, you may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payment for services, other than those received prior to that relocation. Upon such election, if you have prepaid any amount for dating services, so much of the amount prepaid that is allocable to services that you have not received shall be promptly refunded to you If you elect to be relieved of further obligation pursuant to this subdivision, FreeHookup may charge you a fee of $100.00 or, if more than half the life of the contract has expired, a fee of $50.00, not to exceed the amount of the refund to which you are entitled. Such fee shall be deducted from any refund which FreeHookup is required to make to you.

    2. Illinois. The following additional provision(s) apply if you are an Illinois subscriber (as determined by the zip code you use at the time of your subscription):

      1. You acknowledge that the Services are accessible online and are offered in many locations internationally and that therefore, there is no physical dating service office. Thus, you acknowledge and agree that for purposes of the Illinois Dating Referral Services Act, the location of an "enterprise" shall mean any location where the Services are available. If you relocate your primary residence to a location that is more than 25 miles from where our Services are comparably offered, you may cancel this contract and shall be liable only for that portion of the charges allocable to the time before reasonable evidence of the relocation is presented to FreeHookup plus a fee equal to the lesser of (1) 10% of the unused balance or (2) $50. Such fee shall be deducted from any refund which FreeHookup is required to make to you.

      2. If by reason of death you are unable to receive all services for which you have contracted, your estate may elect to be relieved of the obligation to make payments for the Services other than those received before death. We shall have the right to require and verify reasonable evidence of the death.

    3. New York. The following additional provisions(s) apply if you are a New York subscriber (as determined by the zip code you use at the time of your subscription):

      1. If you subscribe for any Paid Services, FreeHookup will provide a minimum of one match to you each month. In the event we do not provide at least one match for two or more successive months, you shall have the option to cancel this agreement by notifying us in writing at the address stated in this Agreement and to receive a refund of all monies paid pursuant to the cancelled contract; provided, however, that FreeHookup shall retain as a cancellation fee 15% of the cash price or a pro rata amount for the number of referrals furnished to you, whichever is greater. This shall be your sole remedy for failure to provide the minimum number of referrals.

      2. Except in connection with any merger, sale of company assets, reorganization, financing, change of control or acquisition of all or a portion of FreeHookup's business by another company or third party or in the event of bankruptcy, FreeHookup will not without the prior written consent of the purchaser sell, assign or otherwise transfer for business or for any other purpose to any person any information and material of a personal or private nature acquired from a purchaser directly or indirectly including but not limited to answers to tests and questionnaires, photographs or background information. You acknowledge and agree that if you post any information, including photographs, to the Services for posting on your profile or other areas of the Services, such information will be publicly accessible, and you are consenting to the display of such information on the Services.

      3. If you permanently relocate your primary residence further than 50 miles from any area in which FreeHookup offers the Services, you may elect to terminate your subscription by notifying us in writing at the address stated in this Agreement. Upon such election, your subscription benefits will cease and you will receive a prorated refund of the Subscription Fee paid, less a termination fee of $50.00, not to exceed the amount of the refund to which you are entitled.

      4. You have the right to place your subscription on hold for a period of up to one year at any time. To do this, you must notify FreeHookup in writing (which includes your FreeHookup user name and the email address used to register for the Services) at FreeHookup, Inc., Attn: Refund Request, 77 Van Ness Ave., #1313, San Francisco, CA 94102.

  23. MISCELLANEOUS

    You agree that this Agreement, together with the Additional Terms, contains the entire agreement between you and FreeHookup regarding the use of the Services and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (including without limitation any prior versions of this Agreement), except to the extent that the parties have entered into a separate written agreement applicable to the Services that expressly governs over this Agreement. If any provision of this Agreement is held illegal, void, invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of the provision to the greatest extent possible under any applicable law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect. The failure of FreeHookup to exercise or enforce any right or provision in this Agreement shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. Other than any entities that FreeHookup owns a 50% or greater interest in, there are no third-party beneficiaries to this Agreement and no third party who is not a party to this Agreement shall have any right to enforce any term of this Agreement.
