EXTERNAL DISPUTES (OUTSIDE OF NEST®)

Resolving External Disputes _ NEST® Users agree to resolve any claim that is set against or is in part or whole relating to or arising out of NEST® Terms, us, or NEST® Services exclusively in the United Kingdom. NEST® Users also further agree to submit to associated personal jurisdictions of such courts for the purpose of litigating any and all such legal disputes. The laws of the United Kingdom do primarily define the User Agreement, the Terms, Privacy Policies as well as any and all similar or comparable disputes, whether they be in court and/or arbitration, or as which might arise between NEST® and any User and all such situations or activities do so without regard to any identified or potential conflict of legal stipulations or provisions.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Any complaint or dispute can be raised in writing to us at [NESTECH LTD, Office One, 1 Coldbath Square, Farringdon, London, EC1R 5HL].

If any disputes or claims arising under these Terms or the Privacy Policy or out of or in connection with the execution, interpretation, performance, or non-performance of these Terms or the Privacy Policy or in respect of the scope, validity or application of the Terms or the Privacy Policy, or the subject matter hereof (“Dispute”), representatives of the Parties shall cooperate, in good faith, to attempt to amicably resolve the Dispute.

All disputes that cannot be resolved by the Parties by discussion shall be settled by . The arbitral tribunal shall consist of 3 (three) arbitrators. Each Party shall appoint 1 (one) arbitrator each and the 2 (two) arbitrators so appointed shall appoint the 3rd (third) arbitrator. The venue of arbitration shall be London. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The decision of the arbitrators shall be final, binding and incontestable and may be used as a basis for judgment thereon anywhere.

Each Party to the arbitration shall cooperate with each other Party to the arbitration in making full disclosure of and providing complete access to all information and documents requested by such other Party in connection with such arbitration proceedings, subject only to any confidentiality obligations binding on such Party or any legal privilege applicable to any such information and/or documents.

CLOSING AN ACCOUNT

Inapplicability of Terms _ Users may end these Terms with NEST® at any time. A NEST® User does so simply by deleting and/or similarly removing the NEST® app from their device or discontinuing usage of the Platforms and Services. Such NEST® application deletion or cessation of use of the Platforms and/or Services is concurrently considered to be a discontinuation of usage of NEST® Services and potentially of all User-associated subscription(s) and/or NEST® service authorization(s). NEST®, in our sole discretion, may modify, suspend, deactivate or terminate any Users’ access to or use of our NEST® Services anytime for any reason, without providing any prior notice to you. Such termination or suspension can be for, but is not limited to such events like: (i) when a User violates the letter or spirit of our Terms; (ii) have carried out unauthorized use of the Services and/or Platform; (iii) if you have used the Services and/or Platform in a manner that violates any applicable laws; and/or (iv) creates harm, risk, or possible legal exposure for NEST® through their own implementation or use of NEST® Services. If you wish to enquire about the suspension, deactivation or cancellation of your NEST® account or believe that a mistake has been made, you may email us with your query on [[email protected]]. If the User fails to raise a query within 1 (one) month of such suspension, deactivation or cancellation, the concerned NEST® account will be permanently deleted.

The rights of NEST® mentioned above are without prejudice to NEST®’s right to pursue any legal action/remedies.

You may terminate your NEST® account at any time by sending an email to [[email protected]]. Please note that if your NEST® account is terminated, we do not have an obligation to delete or return to you any User content you have posted to the Platforms including, but not limited to, any reviews or feedback, if any.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of these Terms, we reserve the right to suspend or discontinue the Services and/or Platforms either temporarily or permanently and either wholly or in part, for maintenance purposes or otherwise, without prior notice. In such a case, we will attempt to inform you of any suspension, discontinuation, or deletion of the Services and/or Platforms.

GENERAL

NEST® may, from time to time, update these Terms. Such updates or alterations to NEST® Terms and/or service policies will be stipulated in the “Last Modified” date as is listed on the User Agreement and Terms webpages. NEST® shall have no obligation to inform Users of any such updates or modifications of these Terms.

A NEST® User, through the continued use of NEST® Services, automatically confirms such Users’ acceptance of NEST®’s latest and/or updated Terms which may supersede any and all prior Terms as may have once been displayed. NEST® User Agreement, Privacy Policy and Terms cover the entire agreement between a User and NEST® in regard to use of NEST® Services, features and/or functions. If any User does not agree with NEST® Terms or wishes to not be bound thereby, then they must immediately stop using NEST® Services.

If NEST® fails to enforce any of such aforementioned Terms, this does not mean or imply NEST® or our associates do somehow thereby waive the future right to enforce them.

If any provision of these Terms, the User Agreement, and/or Privacy Policy is in the future somehow, in part or whole, deemed to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, then and only at such a time may that specific and limited provision be deemed severable from NEST® Terms with such not affecting the enforceability of all remaining provisions.

NEST® Services are not intended for distribution into nor are they intended for use in any country, region, local or jurisdiction wherein such distribution or use of NEST® Services and/or features would violate local law(s) and/or would subject NEST® operations to any regulations in another country. Location specific and ongoing legal adherence is not monitored by NEST®. NEST® reserves all rights to limit services in any specific region, jurisdiction and/or country.

The User shall not have the right to assign or transfer the Terms or the Privacy Policy, or any part thereof, without the prior written consent of NEST®. Any assignment without such consent shall be void and have no effect. NEST® shall have the right to assign or transfer the Terms or the Privacy Policy without requiring the prior approval of the Users.  Subject to the foregoing, the Terms or the Privacy Policy will be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, you and NEST® and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

No third party shall have any right or benefit under these Terms or the Privacy Policy or entitlement to enforce any term of either the Terms or the Privacy Policy.

NEST® and you are independent contractors, and you acknowledge and agree that nothing in the Terms or the Privacy Policy shall cause or constitute the NEST® and you to be partners, agents or fiduciaries of each other. You will have no authority to make or accept any offers or representations on our behalf. The Terms or the Privacy Policy will not create an exclusive relationship between you and NEST®.
