Welcome and thank you for your interest in INRIX’s Traffic Application. The INRIX Traffic Application provides you with personalized traffic information. You may access, use and test the INRIX Traffic Application, including the services made available through or in connection with such application (collectively, the “Traffic App”) only on the condition that you agree to abide by the following terms. INRIX, Inc. (“INRIX“) is providing this Traffic App for you to use, test and download, subject to your agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth below. Your acceptance of the terms of this Agreement and/or your access, use, test, download and/or installation of the Traffic App shall be deemed as your acceptance of all of the terms, representations and undertakings set forth in this Agreement, without any qualification or exception.
This Agreement is a legal agreement between INRIX and you (either an individual or an entity/organization) stating the terms that govern your access, use, test, download and installation of the Traffic App. If you are using the Traffic App on behalf of an entity/organization, you are agreeing to this Agreement for that entity/organization and promising that you have the authority to bind that entity/organization to these terms. In that case, “you” and “your” will refer to that entity/organization.
Unless you are a consumer located in a jurisdiction that prohibits the exclusive use of arbitration for dispute resolution, this Agreement provides that all disputes between you and INRIX will be resolved by BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract, except for matters that may be taken to small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury, and your claims cannot be brought as a class action.

You acknowledge and agree that:

- The Traffic App is not an automated driving system and it does not act as a substitute for any aspect of driver vehicle control or safe driving practices. You are strongly cautioned not to rely on the Traffic App as a substitution, to even the slightest degree, for the exercise of due caution and for safe driving practices.
- You should exercise caution in using the Traffic App. Always maintain full concentration on the road. Never wait for the Traffic App to intervene in a potential collision situation. You are always responsible for maintaining a safe distance to the vehicle ahead
- While driving you must not look at the Traffic App display screen or use the Traffic App’s buttons. The display screen and buttons are intended to be used only by a passenger sitting next to the driver. Looking at the display screen and using the buttons while driving will distract your attention.

The competent state and federal courts sitting in King County, Washington, USA shall have exclusive jurisdiction with respect to any dispute or disagreement arising out of or relating this Agreement, and you consent to their exclusive jurisdiction Notwithstanding the above, INRIX retains the right to seek judicial assistance from other courts: (i) to obtain interim measures (including injunctions or other equitable relief) of protection; and (ii) to enforce any decision of the state and federal courts sitting in King County, Washington, USA. If you are a consumer located in the EU, such jurisdiction of the King County courts will be non-exclusive.
25. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and INRIX in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and INRIX agree that every dispute arising in connection with this Agreement will, unless you are a consumer located in the EU, be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of this Agreement. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND INRIX ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW.
Exceptions. Despite the provisions of the preceding paragraph (“Generally”), nothing in this Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and INRIX will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting INRIX.
Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). INRIX’s address for Notice is: INRIX, Inc., 10210 NE Points Dr., Suite 400, Kirkland, WA 98033. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or INRIX may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or INRIX must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, INRIX will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by INRIX in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1000.
Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with this Agreement, INRIX will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in King County, Washington, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse INRIX for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
No Class Actions. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AND INRIX AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and INRIX 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, to the fullest extent permissible pursuant to applicable law.
Enforceability. If the preceding paragraph (“No Class Actions”) is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 25 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 25 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 24 will govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.
Modifications. If INRIX makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to INRIX’s address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to INRIX’s address for Notice, in which case your account with INRIX will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.
