At any given moment there may be “trouble spots” in the world in terms of war, terrorism, conflict, unrest, crime, Acts of God, civil commotions, labor trouble, pandemics, and/or other potential sources of harm. The United States Department of State and other governmental and tourist organizations provide information on foreign countries, including details of local conditions in specific cities and countries according to such agency’s perception of risks to travelers. We strongly recommend you obtain and consider such information when making travel decisions. Nomadic6 assumes no responsibility for gathering such information or providing it to you.

Death of an immediate family member:

Prior to 1 week before the commencement of a Nomadic6 Program, if a participant can no longer attend the Program due to the death of an immediate family member (spouse, parent, child, or sibling), the participant’s deposit can not be refunded. However, if a participant can no longer attend their program and sufficient notice is given to Nomadic6 prior to the launch of the program, Nomadic6 can refund up to 75% of the total amount at its discretion.

If the Program is longer than 1 month, Nomadic6 will not bill that participant for the second month until he or she is able to return to the Program. If a participant is unable to return, the participant will not be required to make additional payments for the remaining months in the Program; provided, however, that all unpaid bills outstanding prior to the leave of absence will still be due.

Prior to 1 week before the commencement of a Nomadic6 Program, if a participant can no longer attend their current Program due to personal injury or illness which occurs before the Program, the participant’s deposit can not be refunded. However, if a participant can no longer attend their program and sufficient notice and proof is given to Nomadic6 prior to the launch of the program, Nomadic6 can refund up to 75% of the total amount at its discretion.

Note: These next few clauses govern your options should you want to make a claim against us. (Your safety and enjoyment are top priorities, so we hope it doesn’t come to this.)

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING ARBITRATION PROVISION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH Nomadic6 AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

7.2 Agreement to Arbitrate. You agree that any claim or dispute whether based on contract, tort, statutory, constitutional or other legal rights, including without limitation bodily injury, illness to or death of a passenger, alleged violations of civil rights, discrimination, consumer or privacy laws, or other statutory, constitutional or legal rights, or for any losses, damages or expenses relating to or in any way arising out of or connected with your Program, the Services, or against Nomadic6, with the sole exception of claims brought and litigated in small claims court, shall be referred to and resolved exclusively by binding arbitration to be administered in the English language, in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures of Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes, who shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction.

i. Arbitration Fees. The JAMS rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Nomadic6 will pay all arbitration filing fees and arbitrator’s costs and expenses upon your written request given prior to the commencement of the arbitration. You are responsible for all additional fees and costs that you incur in the arbitration, including, but not limited to, attorneys or expert witnesses. Fees and costs may be awarded as provided pursuant to applicable law.

ii. Small Claims Court. Either you or Nomadic6 may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Wilmington, Delaware or any United States county where you work or live.

iii. Opt Out. You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this section by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: Nomadic6 LLC 11029 Paradise Blvd, Treasure Island Fl. 33706 USA, postmarked within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and Conditions. You must include (1) your name and residence address; (2) the email address and/or telephone number associated with your account; and (3) a clear statement that you want to opt out of these Terms and Conditions’ arbitration agreement.

iv. Exclusive Venue. The arbitration shall be held in Tampa, Florida to the exclusion of any other forum, regardless of where the claim arose, and you consent to jurisdiction and waive any objections to arbitration proceeding in Tampa, Florida. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, conscionability, or formation of this contract and the arbitration agreement, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of these Terms and Conditions are void or voidable. Any action to enforce the arbitrator’s decision shall be brought in the state or federal courts in Tampa, Florida. In the event the arbitration provision is deemed unenforceable by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction for any reason or if you send the opt-out notice mentioned above, then and only then, the provisions of section 7.4 below governing forum shall exclusively apply to any lawsuit involving claims described in this subsection.

v. Deposition. You and Nomadic6 further agree to permit the taking of a deposition under oath of the participant asserting the claim, or for whose benefit the claim is asserted, in any such arbitration.

7.3 Waiver of Jury Trial. Neither party will have the right to a jury trial or to engage in pre-arbitration discovery, except as provided in the applicable arbitration rules and herein, or otherwise to litigate the claim in any court. You and Nomadic6 are instead choosing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding. Other rights that you or we would have in court also may not be available in arbitration. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In any litigation between you and Nomadic6 over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND Nomadic6 WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, and elect instead to have the dispute be resolved by a judge.

7.4 Forum and Choice of Law. Any and all claims or disputes relating to or in any way arising out of or connected with this contract the Program or the Services against Nomadic6 and not subject to arbitration under the language above shall be litigated, if at all, in and before the courts of the State of Delaware, U.S.A., to the exclusion of the courts of any other state and country. Any claim or dispute relating to, arising out of or connected with your Program, the Services, and provision of services other than on a vessel, whether subject to arbitration or otherwise, shall be governed by the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles. Any claim or dispute relating to, arising out of or connected with any vessels, whether subject to arbitration or otherwise, shall be governed by the general maritime law of the United States, and if not inconsistent, the laws of the state of Delaware without regard to conflicts of law principles.

7.5 Class Action Waiver. THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS PROVIDE FOR THE EXCLUSIVE RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THROUGH INDIVIDUAL LEGAL ACTION OR ARBITRATION ON YOUR OWN BEHALF INSTEAD OF THROUGH ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. EVEN IF THE APPLICABLE LAW PROVIDES OTHERWISE, YOU AGREE THAT ANY ARBITRATION OR LAWSUIT AGAINST US WHATSOEVER SHALL BE LITIGATED BY A PARTICIPANT INDIVIDUALLY AND NOT AS A MEMBER OF ANY CLASS OR AS PART OF A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, AND EACH PARTICIPANT EXPRESSLY AGREES TO WAIVE ANY LAW ENTITLING PARTICIPANT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. If a claim is subject to arbitration under the arbitration clause above, the arbitrator shall have no authority to arbitrate claims on a class action basis. Each participant agrees that this class action waiver shall not be severable under any circumstances from the arbitration clause set forth in the arbitration above, and if for any reason this class action waiver is unenforceable as to any particular claim, then and only then such claim shall not be subject to arbitration.

7.6 Indemnification. If requested by Nomadic6, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Nomadic6 from and against any and all claims, losses, expenses, demands, or liabilities, including attorneys’ fees and costs, incurred by Nomadic6 in connection with any claim by a third party arising out of or in any way related to: (1) your use of accommodations or workspace provided for you, or your actions during a Nomadic6 event; (2) your violation or alleged violation of these Terms and Conditions or your violation or alleged violation of any applicable law; (3) your infringement or alleged infringement of any intellectual property or other right of any other person or entity; or (4) any dispute between you and an Other Provider.

If a Program is canceled prior to departure, Nomadic6 will provide participants with a full refund of monies paid to Nomadic6; except in the event that the cancellation is due to a significant event that makes it infeasible to operate the Program as planned, in which case Nomadic6 will provide a refund of all monies paid in excess of the stated deposit amount for that program, and, at Nomadic6’s option, provide participants with a refund and/or credit toward a future Nomadic6 equivalent to any remaining monies paid to Nomadic6.
