Terms of use
Last Updated: December 12, 2022Overview
This DIMO Foundation Terms of Use document (“Terms” or “agreement”) (“DIMO”, “we” and “us” refers to DIMO Foundation) covers the platform, marketplace, website, and community forums (“Platform”) (collectively “the Site”) we own and administer, at times in conjunction with others. Additionally, you can access DIMO products and services through third-party web or mobile interfaces. These Terms apply to you (“You” or “you”) as a user of our Site including all the products, services, tools and information made available on the Site and access through third-parties you consent to integrate with or connect to our Site.
Please carefully read these Terms before using the Site. These Terms apply to any person or entity accessing the Site and by using the Site you agree to be bound by them. If you don’t want to be bound by these Terms, you should not access the Site. By using the Site in any capacity, you agree that you have read, understood and agree to be subject to these Terms.
Please carefully read and consider these Terms to ensure that you understand each provision. This agreement contains a mandatory individual arbitration and class action/jury trial waiver provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis to resolve disputes, rather than jury trials or class actions.
You must be able to form a legally binding contract online either as an individual or on behalf of a legal entity. You represent that, if you are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of a legal entity, you have the legal authority to bind the company or other legal entity to these Terms and you are not indirectly or directly included on any sanctions list and at least 18 years old or the age of majority where you reside, whichever is older, can form a legally binding contract online, and have the full, right, power and authority to enter into and to comply with the obligations under these Terms.
You are advised to periodically review these Terms so you understand any changes to the Terms. DIMO in its sole discretion, reserves the right to make changes to our Terms. Changes are binding on users of the Site and will take effect immediately upon posting. As a user, you agree to be bound by any changes, variations, or modifications to our Terms and your continued use of the Site shall constitute acceptance of any such changes, revisions, variations, or modifications. When we make changes, we will make the updated Terms available on the Platform and update the “Last Updated” date at the beginning of the Terms accordingly. You accept such changes, by continuing to use the Site and by doing so, you agree we have provided you with sufficient notice of such change. Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy also apply to your access and use of the Site.
Site
As part of the Site, DIMO provides access to an application (“Application” or “app”) that allows you to enroll your vehicle, connect your digital asset wallet or cloud vault, share data analytics and earn rewards. You acknowledge and agree that DIMO has no control over any activities, transactions, the method of payment of any transactions, or any actual processing of payments of transactions through any third-party applications.
Once you enroll, we alone will determine whether or not to approve your proposed account. For so long as you use the app, you agree to provide true, accurate, current, and complete information that can be accomplished by logging in and making relevant changes directly. You are responsible for complying with these Terms when you access this app, whether directly or through any account that you may set up through or on this Site. Because it is your account, it is your job to obtain and maintain all equipment and services needed for access to and use of this app as well as paying related charges. You agree to choose a strong and secure password(s) and maintain the confidentiality of your password(s), including any password of a third-party site that we may allow you to use to access this Application. Should you believe your password or security for this Application has been breached in any way, you must immediately notify us at [email protected].

The content and materials available on the Site are for informational purposes only and is not intended to address your particular requirements or needs. From time to time, reference may be made to data we have gathered. These references may be selective or, may be partial.

General
We may perform any of our obligations, and exercise any of the rights granted to us under these Terms, through an affiliated or unaffiliated third-party. We may assign any or all our rights and obligations under these Terms to any third-party.
If any clause or part of any clause of these Terms is found to be void, unenforceable or invalid, then it will be severed from these Terms, leaving the remainder in full force and effect, provided that the severance has not altered the basic nature of these Terms.
No single or partial exercise, or failure or delay in exercising any right, power or remedy by us shall constitute a waiver by us of, or impair or preclude any further exercise of, that or any right, power or remedy arising under these terms and conditions or otherwise. If any of the provisions in these Terms are found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the remainder shall continue in full force and effect.
All disclaimers, indemnities and exclusions in these Terms shall survive termination of the Terms and shall continue to apply during any suspension or any period during which the Site is not available for you to use for any reason whatsoever.
These Terms and the documents referred to in them set out the entire agreement between you and us with respect to your use of the Site, DIMO and the services provided via the Site and supersede any and all prior or contemporaneous representations, communications or agreements (written or oral) made between you or us.
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be commenced in a federal court in Delaware or in state court in Kent County, and each party hereto irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any such court in any such suit, action or proceeding. If any part of this Agreement is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions hereof.

This waiver applies to class arbitration, and, unless we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims. You agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and DIMO are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, collective action, or other representative proceeding of any kind.
The parties declare that they have required that these Terms and all documents related hereto, either present or future, be drawn up in the English language only.
