Last Updated: 7 May 2020
Welcome, and thank you for your
interest in Tripsheet, Inc. d/b/a Flightsheet ("Flightsheet", "we",
or "us") and our mobile applications, websites, and other services
provided by us (collectively, the "Service"). These Terms of Service are
a legally binding contract between you and Flightsheet regarding your use of
the Service.
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS CAREFULLY.
BY CLICKING "I ACCEPT," OR BY DOWNLOADING, INSTALLING, OR OTHERWISE
ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD, AND, AS A CONDITION TO YOUR USE
OF
THE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY, THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING FLIGHTSHEETS PRIVACY POLICY
(TOGETHER, THESE "TERMS""). IF YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE, OR DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS, THEN YOU DO NOT HAVE OUR
PERMISSION TO
USE THE SERVICE. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, AND FLIGHTSHEETS PROVISION OF THE SERVICE TO YOU, CONSTITUTES AN
AGREEMENT BY FLIGHTSHEET AND BY YOU TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.
ARBITRATION NOTICE. Except for
certain kinds of disputes described in Section 16, you agree that disputes
arising under these Terms will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration,
and BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS, YOU AND
FLIGHTSHEET ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN
ANY CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. 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. (See Section
16.)
- 1. Flightsheet Service Overview. The
Service is provided by Flightsheet to help pilots manage their reporting
needs. The Service enables pilots to easily generate certain engine warranty
and maintenance reports as well as expense reports.
- 2. Eligibility.
You must be at least 16 years old to use the
Service. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a)
you are at least 16 years old; (b) you have not previously been suspended or
removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service
is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations. If you are
an entity, organization, or company, the individual accepting these Terms on
your behalf represents and warrants that they have authority to bind you to
these Terms and you agree to be bound by these Terms.
- 3. Accounts and Registration. To
use the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an
account, you may be required to provide us with some information about
yourself, such as your name, email address, and phone number. You agree that
the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it
accurate and up-to-date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to
provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the
confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for
all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account
is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at
support@flightsheet.com.
- 4. General Payment Terms. Certain
features of the Service may require you to pay fees. Before you pay any fees,
you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be
charged. All fees are in U.S. Dollars and are non-refundable.
- 4.1 Authorization. You authorize Flightsheet to charge
all sums
for the orders that you make and any level of Service you select as described
in these Terms or published by Flightsheet, including all applicable taxes, to
the payment method specified in your account (including recurring charges
through the Apple App Store). If you pay any fees with a credit card,
Flightsheet may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to
your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary
funds or credit available to cover your purchase.
- 4.2 Subscription Service. Upon registration for the
Service,
Flightsheet may offer a thirty (30) day trial period (the "Trial Period")
for the Service, during which time you will not be charged. If you do not
cancel your subscription prior to the end of the Trial Period, or if the
Service does not include a Trial Period, you will be automatically charged
recurring payments for the Service (the "Subscription Service"). By
activating a Subscription Service, or by not cancelling prior to the end of the
Trial Period you authorize Flightsheet to periodically charge, on a
going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or
your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the
accrued sums. The "Subscription Billing Date" is the date when you
purchase your first subscription to the Service or, if there is Trial Period,
the day the Trial Period expires. Your account will be charged automatically on
the Subscription Billing Date all applicable fees and taxes for the next
subscription period. The subscription will continue unless and until you cancel
your subscription or we terminate it. You must cancel your subscription before
it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic subscription fee to
your account. We will bill the periodic subscription fee to the payment method
you provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you
change your payment information). You may cancel your subscription via the
methods below based on how you acquired your subscription:
iOS
Subscriptions acquired via our iOS app are
managed through your Apple account. Please see the below article from Apple to
learn how to manage or cancel a recurring subscription: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202039

intellectual property and other laws. All Materials included in the Service are
the property of Flightsheet or its third party licensors. Except as expressly
authorized by Flightsheet, you may not make use of the Materials. Flightsheet
reserves all rights to the Materials not granted expressly in these Terms.
- 7. Third Party Terms
- 7.1 Third Party Services and Linked Websites. Flightsheet
may
provide tools through the Service that enable you to export information,
including User Content, to third party services. By using one of these tools,
you agree that Flightsheet may transfer that information to the applicable
third party service. Third party services are not under Flightsheets control,
and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, Flightsheet is not responsible for
any third party services use of your exported information. The Service may

Flightsheets control, and Flightsheet is not responsible for their content.
- 7.2 Third Party Software. The Service may include or
incorporate
third party software components that are generally available free of charge
under licenses granting recipients broad rights to copy, modify, and distribute
those components ("Third Party Components"). Although the Service is
provided to you subject to these Terms, nothing in these Terms prevents, restricts,
or is intended to prevent or restrict you from obtaining Third Party Components
under the applicable third party licenses or to limit your use of Third Party
Components under those third party licenses.
- 8. User Content
- 8.1 User Content Generally. Certain features of the
Service may
permit users to upload content to the Service, including reports, photos,
video, images, folders, data, text, and other types of works ("User Content")

modify for the purpose of formatting for display, and distribute your User
Content, in whole or in part, in any media formats and through any media
channels now known or hereafter developed, for purposes of providing you the
Service.
- 8.3 User Content Representations and Warranties.
Flightsheet
disclaims any and all liability in connection with User Content. Subject to our
rights to remove User Content in Section 8.4, we will host your User Content
for a period of one (1) year from your upload of that User Content, after which
time Flightsheet may remove your User Content at our discretion. You are solely
responsible for your User Content and the consequences of providing User
Content via the Service. You are responsible for periodically backing up any
User Content that you provide. By providing User Content via the Service, you
affirm, represent, and warrant that:
a.
you are the creator and owner of the User Content, or have the necessary
licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize Flightsheet to use and
distribute your User Content as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by
you in this Section, in the manner contemplated by Flightsheet, the Service,
and these Terms;
b.
your User Content, and the use of your User Content as contemplated by

intellectual property or proprietary right; (ii) slander, defame, libel, or
invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other

embarrassing, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate.

to edit
or control User Content that you or other users post or publish, and will not
be in any way responsible or liable for User Content. Flightsheet may, however,
at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any User
Content that in our sole judgment violates these Terms or is otherwise
objectionable. You agree to waive, and do waive, any legal or equitable right
or remedy you have or may have against Flightsheet with respect to User Content.
If notified by a user or content owner that User Content allegedly does not
conform to these Terms, we may investigate the allegation and determine in our
sole discretion whether to remove the User Content, which we reserve the right
to do at any time and without notice. For clarity, Flightsheet does not permit
copyright-infringing activities on the Service.
- 8.5 Monitoring Content. Flightsheet does not control and
does not
have any obligation to monitor: (a) User Content; (b) any content made
available by third parties; or (c) the use of the Service by its users. You
acknowledge and agree that Flightsheet reserves the right to, and may from time
to time, monitor any and all information transmitted or received through the
Service for operational and other purposes. If at any time Flightsheet chooses
to monitor the content, Flightsheet still assumes no responsibility or
liability for content or any loss or damage incurred as a result of the use of
content. During monitoring, information may be examined, recorded, copied, and
used in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

your authorization to access the Service and these Terms automatically

- 14. Disclaimers; No Warranties
THE SERVICE AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT
AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE ARE PROVIDED AS IS AND ON AN AS AVAILABLE
BASIS. FLIGHTSHEET DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR
IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE SERVICE AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE
THROUGH THE SERVICE, INCLUDING: (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT;
AND (B) ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE.
FLIGHTSHEET DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE OR ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE, OR
ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT OFFERED THROUGH THE SERVICE, WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED,
SECURE, OR FREE OF ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS,
AND FLIGHTSHEET DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED.
NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR
WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SERVICE OR FLIGHTSHEET ENTITIES OR ANY
MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY
REGARDING ANY OF THE FLIGHTSHEET ENTITIES OR THE SERVICE THAT IS NOT EXPRESSLY
STATED IN THESE TERMS. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT
FROM THE SERVICE AND YOUR DEALING WITH ANY OTHER SERVICE USER. YOU UNDERSTAND
AND AGREE THAT YOU USE ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND
RISK, AND THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY
(INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE
SERVICE) OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, INCLUDING USER CONTENT.

PERMITTED BY LAW. Flightsheet does not disclaim any warranty or other right
that Flightsheet is prohibited from disclaiming under applicable law.

RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE

AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO FLIGHTSHEET FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE IN THE
12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO CLAIM; OR (B) $100.
EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR
A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS
INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THESE TERMS.
THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE
PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER
PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 15 WILL APPLY EVEN
IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE
- 16. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
- 16.1 Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes
between you
and Flightsheet in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as
described in Section 16.2 and 16.3, you and Flightsheet agree that every
dispute arising in connection with these Terms will 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 these Terms, 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 these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE
THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND FLIGHTSHEET ARE EACH WAIVING THE
RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
- 16.2 Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 16.1,
nothing
in these Terms 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 in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an
intellectual property infringement claim.
- 16.3 Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by
binding
arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 16 within 30
days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to
Tripsheet, Inc. d/b/a Flightsheet, Attention: Legal Department Arbitration
Opt-Out, 600 Travis Street, Suite 3550, Houston, TX 77002 that specifies: your
full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the
Service,, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration ("Opt-Out
Notice"). Once Flightsheet receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 16
will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set
forth in Section 17.2. The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be
affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
- 16.4 Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and
Flightsheet will
be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively,
"AAA Rules") as modified by these Terms. 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 Flightsheet. The arbitrator has
exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation,
applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
- 16.5 Notice of Arbitration; 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
that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by
electronic mail ("Notice of Arbitration"). Flightsheets address for
Notice is: Tripsheet, Inc. d/b/a Flightsheet, 600 Travis Street, Suite 3550,
Houston, TX 77002 . The Notice of Arbitration 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
of Arbitration is received, you or Flightsheet may commence an arbitration
proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be
confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the
arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Flightsheet must
not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final
decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than
the last written settlement amount offered by Flightsheet in settlement of the
dispute prior to the award, Flightsheet will pay to you the higher of: (i) the
amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.
- 16.6 Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with
these Terms, Flightsheet 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 Harris County, Texas, 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 Flightsheet 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 arbitrators ruling on the merits.
- 16.7 No Class Actions. YOU
AND FLIGHTSHEET 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 Flightsheet agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than
one persons claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a
representative or class proceeding.
- 16.8 Modifications
to this Arbitration Provision. If Flightsheet makes any future change to
this arbitration provision, other than a change to Flightsheets address for
Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice
within 30 days of the change to Flightsheets address for Notice of
Arbitration, in which case your account with Flightsheet will be immediately
terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to
the changes you rejected will survive.
- 16.9 Enforceability.
If Section 16.7 or the entirety of this Section 16 is found to be
unenforceable, or if Flightsheet receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the
entirety of this Section 16 will be null and void and, in that case, the
exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 17.2 will govern any
action arising out of or related to these Terms.
- 17. Miscellaneous
- 17.1 General Terms. These Terms, together with the
Privacy Policy
and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms,
are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and
Flightsheet regarding your use of the Service. You may not assign or transfer
these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation
of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms
at any time without notice or consent. The failure to require performance of
any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other
time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these
Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or
default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in these
Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the
interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word
including means including but not limited to. If any part of these Terms is
held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given
effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full
force and effect.
- 17.2 Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws
of the
State of Texas without regard to conflict of law principles. You and
Flightsheet submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state
courts and federal courts located within Travis County, Texas for resolution of
any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms. We operate the
Service from our offices in Texas, and we make no representation that Materials
included in the Service are appropriate or available for use in other
locations.
- 17.3 Privacy Policy. Please read the
Flightsheet Privacy Policy carefully for
information relating to our collection, use, storage, disclosure of your
personal information. The Flightsheet Privacy Policy
is incorporated by this reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.
- 17.4 Additional Terms. Your use of the Service is subject
to all
additional terms, policies, rules, or guidelines applicable to the Service or
certain features of the Service that we may post on or link to from the Service
(the "Additional Terms"). All Additional Terms are incorporated by this
reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.
- 17.5 Consent to Electronic Communications. By using the
Service,
you consent to receiving certain electronic communications from us as further
described in our Privacy Policy. Please read our Privacy Policy to learn more
about our electronic communications practices. You agree that any notices,
agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you
electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that
those communications be in writing.
