THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS, AS WELL AS CONDITIONS, LIMITATIONS, AND EXCLUSIONS THAT MIGHT APPLY TO YOU. PLEASE READ THEM CAREFULLY. THESE TERMS OF SERVICE REQUIRE THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS ACTIONS.
Hyperia, Inc. (“Hyperia,” “we,” “us,” “our”) provides its services to you through its websites (collectively, the “Site”) and through its related services (collectively, such services, including any new features and applications, and the Site, the “Service(s)”), subject to the following Terms of Service (as amended from time to time, the “Terms of Service”). We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms of Service at any time. If we do this, we will post the changes on this page and will indicate at the top of this page the date these terms were last revised. We will also notify you, either through the Services user interface, in an email notification or through other reasonable means. Any such changes will become effective no earlier than fourteen (14) days after they are posted, except that changes addressing new functions of the Services or changes made for legal reasons will be effective immediately. Your continued use of the Service after the date any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Service. If you do not agree to abide by these or any future Terms of Service, do not use or access (or continue to use or access) the Service.
In addition, when using the Service, you will be subject to our Privacy Policy located at https://hyperia.net/privacy-policy, which is incorporated by reference into these Terms of Service.
1. Access and Use of the Service. Our Services uses proprietary speech and speaker recognition technology to transform voice conversations into legible text. Among other things, our Services make voice conversations searchable like email or other text communications. The Service also enables you to share conversations and associated transcripts with others.
We will make the Services available to you. You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to the Services, including a high-speed internet connection.
You acknowledge and agree that we will have no obligation to provide you with any support or maintenance in connection with the Services.
2. Your Registration Obligations. You will be required to register with Hyperia in order to access and use the Service.

In addition, if you are under 18 years old, you may use the Service only with the approval of your parent or guardian.
3. Member Account, Password, and Security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and account, if any, and you are fully and solely responsible for any and all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree to (a) immediately notify Hyperia of any unauthorized use of your password or account or any other breach of security and (b) ensure that you exit from your account at the end of each session when accessing the Service. We can disable your account with Hyperia immediately for so long as necessary to protect us or for as long as you are violating these Terms of Service. If we take action to disable your account with Hyperia, we will promptly notify you. If you believe your account with Hyperia has been disabled in error, or if you want to terminate or permanently delete your account with Hyperia, please contact us at support@hyperia.net.

4. Modifications to the Service. Hyperia reserves the right to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice.

10. Third-Party Content. Under no circumstances will Hyperia be liable in any way for any content or materials of any third parties (including users), including, but not limited to, for any errors or omissions in any content, or for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of any such content. You acknowledge that Hyperia does not pre-screen content posted on or made available by the Services, but that Hyperia and its designees will have the right (but not the obligation) in their sole discretion to refuse or remove any content that is available via the Services. Without limiting the foregoing, Hyperia and its designees will have the right to remove any content that violates these Terms of Service or is deemed by Hyperia, in its sole discretion, to be otherwise objectionable.

The Services provide a feature that allows you to record individual conversations and/or upload recorded conversations. The laws regarding the notice and notification requirements of such recorded conversations vary by location. It may be an offense in your jurisdiction to record other individuals without their prior written consent. It is your responsibility to follow applicable foreign, federal, and local laws when using such feature, including informing the participants in your meetings that the discussion is being recorded. We absolutely do not condone the use of our Services for illegal purposes.
You acknowledge and agree that Hyperia may preserve User Content and may also disclose User Content if required to do so by law or in the good faith belief that such preservation or disclosure is reasonably necessary to (a) comply with legal process, applicable laws or government requests; (b) enforce these Terms of Service; (c) respond to claims that any User Content violates the rights of third parties; or (d) protect the rights, property, or personal safety of Hyperia, its users and the public.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which says: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” If you are a resident of another jurisdiction, you waive any comparable statute or doctrine.
13. Disclaimer of Warranties. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. HYPERIA EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. HYPERIA MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT (I) THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS, (II) THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, (III) THE RESULTS THAT MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICE WILL BE ACCURATE OR RELIABLE, OR (IV) THE QUALITY OF ANY DOCUMENTS, PRODUCTS, SERVICES, INFORMATION, OR OTHER MATERIAL PURCHASED OR OBTAINED BY YOU THROUGH THE SERVICE WILL MEET YOUR EXPECTATIONS.
14. Limitation of Liability. YOU EXPRESSLY UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT HYPERIA WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, USE, DATA OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF HYPERIA HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES), WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, RESULTING FROM: (I) THE USE OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE; (II) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO THROUGH OR FROM THE SERVICE; (III) UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA; (IV) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SERVICE; OR (V) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE SERVICE. IN NO EVENT WILL HYPERIA’S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR CAUSES OF ACTION EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID HYPERIA IN THE LAST SIX (6) MONTHS, OR, IF GREATER, ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100).
SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATION OR EXCLUSION OF LIABILITY FOR INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. ACCORDINGLY, SOME OF THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS SET FORTH ABOVE MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IF YOU ARE DISSATISFIED WITH ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR WITH THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, YOUR SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO DISCONTINUE USE OF THE SERVICE.
15. Arbitration. All disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to the Terms of Service or the Service that are not resolved by mutual agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration to be conducted before Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. or its successor (“JAMS”). Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, arbitration will be held in Denver, Colorado before a single arbitrator mutually agreed upon by the parties, or if the parties cannot mutually agree, a single arbitrator appointed by JAMS, and will be conducted in accordance with the rules and regulations promulgated by JAMS unless specifically modified in the Terms of Service. The arbitration must commence within forty-five (45) days of the date on which a written demand for arbitration is filed by either party. The arbitrator’s decision and the award will be made and delivered within sixty (60) days of the conclusion of the arbitration and within six (6) months of the selection of the arbitrator. The arbitrator will not have the power to award damages in excess of the limitation on actual compensatory, direct damages set forth in the Terms of Service and may not multiply actual damages or award punitive damages or any other damages that are specifically excluded under the Terms of Service, and each party hereby irrevocably waives any claim to such damages. The arbitrator may, in his or her discretion, assess costs and expenses (including the reasonable legal fees and expenses of the prevailing party) against any party to a proceeding. Any party refusing to comply with an order of the arbitrator will be liable for costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in enforcing the award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of temporary or preliminary injunctive relief, any party may proceed in court without prior arbitration for the purpose of avoiding immediate and irreparable harm. The provisions of this arbitration section will be enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may elect to pursue your claim in small-claims court rather than arbitration if you provide us with written notice of your intention do so within 60 days of initially signing up for an account with Hyperia. The arbitration or small-claims court proceeding will be limited solely to your individual dispute or controversy.
You agree to an arbitration on an individual basis. In any dispute, NEITHER YOU NOR US WILL BE ENTITLED TO JOIN OR CONSOLIDATE CLAIMS BY OR AGAINST OTHER USERS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLAIM AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS MEMBER OR IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL CAPACITY. 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. The arbitrator has no power to consider the enforceability of this class arbitration waiver and any challenge to the class arbitration waiver may only be raised in a court of competent jurisdiction.
If any provision of this arbitration agreement is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced.
16. Termination. You agree that Hyperia, in its sole discretion, may suspend or terminate your account (or any part thereof) or use of the Service and remove and discard any of your User Content within the Service, for any reason, including, without limitation, for lack of use or if Hyperia believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with the letter or spirit of these Terms of Service. Any suspected fraudulent, abusive or illegal activity that may be grounds for termination of your use of Service, may be referred to appropriate law enforcement authorities. Hyperia may also in its sole discretion and at any time discontinue providing the Service, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Service under any provision of this Terms of Service may be effected without prior notice, and acknowledge and agree that Hyperia may immediately deactivate or delete your account and all related information and files in your account and/or bar any further access to such files or the Service. Further, you agree that Hyperia will not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of your access to the Service.
17. User Disputes. You agree that you are solely responsible for your interactions with any other user of the Services in connection with the Service, and Hyperia will have no liability or responsibility with respect thereto. Hyperia reserves the right but has no obligation, to become involved in any way with disputes between you and any other user of the Service.
18. General. These Terms of Service (along with our Privacy Policy) constitute the entire agreement between you and Hyperia and govern your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Hyperia with respect to the Service. These Terms of Service will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its conflict of law provisions. With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth above, you and Hyperia agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Denver County, Colorado. The failure of Hyperia to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Service is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Service shall remain in full force and effect. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred. A printed version of these Terms of Service and of any notice given in electronic form will be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms of Service to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. You may not assign these Terms of Service without the prior written consent of Hyperia, but Hyperia may assign or transfer this Terms of Service, in whole or in part, without restriction. The section titles in these Terms of Service are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Any notice delivered by us to you under these Terms of Service will be delivered by email to the email address associated with your account or by posting on our website. Any notice delivered by you to us under these Terms of Service will be delivered by contacting Hyperia at support@hyperia.net.
19. Your Privacy. At Hyperia, we respect the privacy of our users. For details, please see our Privacy Policy. By using the Service, you consent to our collection and use of personal data as outlined therein. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT IT IS NOT OUR INTENT TO OBTAIN, COLLECT OR OTHERWISE PROCESS YOUR PERSONAL DATA (AS SUCH TERM IS DEFINED IN OUR PRIVACY POLICY) OR THE PERSONAL DATA OF ANY OTHER PERSON, AND, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN OUR PRIVACY POLICY, WE DO NOT WANT, AND YOUR USER CONTENT SHOULD NOT CONTAIN, YOUR PERSONAL DATA OR THE PERSONAL DATA OF ANY OTHER PERSON.
