RECOMMENDED DAILY GOAL IS AN ESTIMATE FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY.
The “Recommended Daily Goal” component of the Service was developed by Hidrate using a variety of health care literature and institutional standards for hydration, along with input from healthcare professionals. You can choose to input personal parameters such as height, age, weight, sex, and general activity level, which are used to provide a recommended daily hydration goal. In addition, we may use data imported from Third-Party Products and Services to provide the recommended daily goal. You agree that Hidrate is not responsible for any data imported from Third-Party Products and Services, including its accuracy. This goal is only an estimate based on the information you input and is for informational purposes only. If you chose to integrate location services, the temperature, humidity and elevation of your surroundings can alter this recommended daily goal. The general object is to consume water at a healthy pace throughout the day, rather than consuming a large percentage of the daily recommended intake in a short period of time. The calculation does NOT account for all information, health conditions, or individual situations that may affect a person’s hydration needs. Also, health guidelines, including recommendations for hydration, may change from time to time, and this calculation may not be updated to incorporate those changes. Consuming too much or too little water (or other beverages/hydrating foods) can have serious health consequences. Accordingly, the suggestion generated by this application software is not a substitute for current professional medical advice, and use of this application software does not create any patient-health care provider relationship. You should consult with your professional healthcare provider before using this application software to make any decisions about your hydration. Hidrate makes no representations or warranties about the accuracy of the recommended hydration goal.
This Service allows you to manually set a goal for your daily goal. The custom goal is determined entirely by you, so entering an appropriate number is your responsibility. Consuming too much or too little water (or other beverages/hydrating foods) can have serious health consequences. We do not review your input and take no responsibility for limiting your goals within an appropriate range.
Use of the Service does not create any patient-health care provider relationship. You should consult with your professional healthcare provider before using the Service to make any decisions about your hydration.
Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold the Hidrate Parties harmless from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your access to or use of or inability to use the Hidrate Service, (ii) User Content, (iii) your breach of any warranties made by you hereunder or your violation of any other provision of these Terms or the Bulk Terms, if applicable, (iv) your violation of applicable laws or regulations; or (v) your violation of any rights of another party. We reserve the right to assume control of the defense of any third-party claim that is subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses. You agree not to settle any matter without the prior written consent of the applicable Hidrate Party. Hidrate will use reasonable efforts to notify you of any such claim, action or proceeding upon becoming aware of it. This provision does not require you to indemnify any of the Hidrate Parties for any unconscionable commercial practice by such party or for such party’s fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Site any Service provided hereunder.
Limitation Of Liability
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT IN NO EVENT WILL THE HIDRATE PARTIES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF DATA OR GOODWILL, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, COMPUTER DAMAGE OR SYSTEM FAILURE OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, THE BULK TERMS, OR FROM THE PURCHASE OF OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE HIDRATE SERVICE, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT HIDRATE HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGE, EVEN IF A LIMITED REMEDY SET FORTH HEREIN IS FOUND TO HAVE FAILED OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
IN NO EVENT WILL HIDRATE’S TOTAL LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, THE BULK TERMS, OR FROM THE PURCHASE OF OR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE HIDRATE SERVICE EXCEED THE AMOUNTS YOU HAVE PAID TO HIDRATE FOR USE OF THE HIDRATE SERVICE OR ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100), IF YOU HAVE NOT HAD ANY PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS TO HIDRATE, AS APPLICABLE.
THE FOREGOING CAPS ON LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY OF A HIDRATE PARTY FOR (A) DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY CAUSED BY A HIDRATE PARTY’S NEGLIGENCE; OR FOR (B) ANY INJURY CAUSED BY A HIDRATE PARTY’S FRAUD OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATION. SUBJECT TO THE FOREGOING, Hidrate have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity arising as a result, or in the course, of your use of the Hidrate Service for any commercial, business or resale purposes.
THE HIDRATE PARTIES ASSUME NO RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE TIMELINESS, DELETION, MIS-DELIVERY OR FAILURE TO STORE DEVICE DATA OR ANY CONTENT (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, USER CONTENT), USER COMMUNICATIONS OR PERSONALIZATION SETTINGS.
THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN HIDRATE AND YOU.

Dispute Resolution
Arbitration Agreement; Class Waiver; Waiver of Trial by Jury. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Hidrate and affects your rights. It requires you to arbitrate disputes with Company and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.
Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. You agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Site, to any products sold or distributed through the Site, or to any aspect of your relationship with Hidrate, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify; and (2) you or Hidrate may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose or were asserted before the Effective Date of these Terms or any prior version of these Terms.
1.1 Arbitration Rules and Forum. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent [include name and address of registered agent here]. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims and counterclaims 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 claims 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, Hidrate will pay them for you. In addition, Hidrate will reimburse all such JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for claims 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 claim 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 Hidrate. 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 HIDRATE 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 Hidrate are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified above. 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 CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, 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 claim for relief, than then claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought into the State or Federal Courts located in the State of Minnesota. All other claims 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 the following address: support@hidrate.me, within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Hidrate username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Hidrate account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of this Agreement 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.
Severability. Except as provided in subsection Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of this arbitration agreement and the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Hidrate.
Modification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if Hidrate makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, you may reject that change within thirty (30 days of such change becoming effective by writing Hidrate at the following address: support@hidrate.me.
