Your Agreement to these TOS and Future Changes

These TOS are a legal agreement between you and us. The Service including Contents sold and distributed in the Service is licensed, not sold, to you by us. We reserve all rights in and to the Service not expressly granted to you under these TOS. We may modify these TOS, at our sole discretion, effective immediately upon posting of the revised TOS, and you agree to and accept this condition. Material changes to these TOS will be announced by posting them in the mobile application stores and Sites where the Service is available. You are responsible for checking these TOS each time before using the Service. Continued use of the Service following the posting of changes means that you accept and agree to the updated TOS.

Scope of License

Your rights under these TOS are limited to a personal, non-commercial, nontransferable license to use the Service through the Sites or Apps on devices that you own or control and as permitted by the usage rules for the applicable mobile app store through which you accessed the App (if applicable) or other terms and conditions applying to your device.

These TOS do not allow you to use the Service on any device that you do not own or control, and except as provided in the rules relating to your device, you may not distribute or make the Service available over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at the same time. You may not rent, lease, lend, sell, transfer redistribute, or sublicense the Service including Contents sold and distributed in the Service and, if you sell your device to a third party, you must remove the App or logout of your account if you are using the Service on Sites before doing so.

If you are using the Services through an App and have an Apple or Android device, and these TOS are less restrictive than, or in conflict with, the terms of service for such device, the terms of service for such device will govern with respect to the use of the App.

Use of the term “purchase” in these TOS does not imply that you obtain any ownership rights to the Service or the Contents.

Mediation and Binding Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.

You may opt out of arbitration within a limited period. Please see “Opt-Out Right” below.

Informal Negotiation. You and we agree to attempt in good faith to resolve any Dispute before commencing arbitration. Unless you and we otherwise agree in writing, the time for informal negotiation will be 60 days from the date on which you or we provide written notice of the Dispute. You and we agree that neither will commence arbitration before the end of the time for informal negotiation.

Binding Arbitration.

Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Commercial Rules, Consumer Due Process Protocol and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. Unless the claim is for more than US$10,000, the arbitration shall be conducted solely through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing, and shall provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. YOU UNDERSTAND AND ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE (OR PARTICIPATE IN AS A PARTY OR CLASS MEMBER) ALL DISPUTES IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY.

Limitation. You and we agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between us and you individually. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this provision is determined to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Mediation and Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.

Opt-Out Right. You can reject and opt-out of this binding arbitration agreement within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Service by emailing us at support@mail.bookwalker.jp_with your first and last name and the e-mail address associated with your account and stating your intent to opt-out of the binding arbitration.
