Part I – Bike Booking & Reservation Services
1. Bike Reservations. Booking YoYo makes available Bike Rental reservation services (the “Reservation Services”) through the Booking YoYo Sites to User for the purpose of assisting User in securing Bike Rental reservation. In response to a User’s online request for a Bike Rental through the Booking YoYo Sites, Booking YoYo contacts the venue computerised database of booking as applicable. Once a Bike Rental reservation request is made by User through the Booking YoYo Sites, Booking YoYo will provide confirmation of the reservation or waitlist status to User by email or other electronic messages as has been agreed to by User. By using the Bike Rental Services, User agrees to receive Bike Rental confirmations, updates, modifications and/or cancellations by email or other electronic messages.
2. No-Show Policy. Booking YoYo is committed to providing superior quality services to Users an Bike Rental venues. To assist us in maintaining a consistently high level of service for the Venues and their patrons, Users must cancel any Bike Rental bookings by directly notifying the venue. Due to venues having different refund policies, to cancel and receive a refund you must contact the Bike Rental venue directly. Some venues may require a debit or credit card number to finalise or cancel your Bike Rental booking. In order to use the Bike Rental reservation Services for these Venues, you must provide valid debit or credit card information. To confirm that the debit or credit card information you have provided is accurate, we may place a temporary authorisation on your debit or credit card at the time you provide your debit or credit card information. After we verify that your debit or credit card information is accurate, usually within a few days, the authorisation will be removed. You may be required to cancel your reservation in accordance with the venue’s cancellation policy, which is disclosed at the time the reservation is made. Booking YoYo uses this debit or credit card information as described in our privacy policy and shall have no liability for any charges made to the debit or credit card account for any failure to cancel your reservation in accordance with a venues cancellation policy.
If you wish to remove yourself from a waitlist you have joined through the Waitlist Services, you can do so by managing your place in line through the Booking YoYo Sites or by calling the Venue. Failure to appear at the venue in a timely manner may result in the venue bypassing your place on the waitlist for other guests or removing you from the waitlist entirely.
3. Usage Guidelines. User agrees to use the Reservation Services or Waitlist Services only to book reservations or join waitlists at venues and then honor those reservations or waitlist requests by arriving at the venues on time. Administrative assistants may be able to book multiple reservations through Booking YoYo’s Administrative Assistant programs, subject to any applicable program terms. Resale or attempted resale of reservations is prohibited and is grounds for, among other things, cancellation of your reservations or termination of your access to the Services.
Part II – Payment, Gift Card and Other Services
4. Payment, Gift Card and Other Services. Depending on your country of residency, Booking YoYo may offer additional Services such as payment services made available by Booking YoYo through the Booking YoYo Sites (the “Payment Services”), electronic and physical gift cards and gift certificates issued by Booking YoYo (each, an “Booking YoYo Gift Card”), electronic gift cards and gift certificates issued by participating third-party venues (each, a “Merchant Gift Card”) and other services. The additional terms applicable to such Services are available here, and form a part of this Agreement: click here.
Part III – Deposits and Disputes Related to Deposits
As part of the services provided through Booking YoYo, businesses may have the option to require deposits from customers at the time of booking. These deposits are processed through our integrated payment service, Stripe.
Please be aware that the collection, handling, and return of these deposits are the sole responsibility of the individual business that you are transacting with. Booking YoYo does not hold any deposits, and any disputes related to the deposit must be resolved directly with the individual business. If a dispute arises, we strongly recommend you first attempt to resolve the issue directly with the business involved.
While Booking YoYo does facilitate these transactions, we do not assume liability for any deposit-related issues or disputes. Our platform acts solely as a medium for businesses to manage their rental operations and process payments, including deposits.
In using our services, you acknowledge and agree that Booking YoYo will not be held responsible or liable for any disputes, claims, losses, injuries, or damage of any kind related to deposits.

Without limiting the foregoing, Booking YoYo may suspend your access to the Services if we believe you to be in violation of any part of this Agreement (including any Booking YoYo Policies).

The Services may permit you to submit, transmit, post or otherwise provide content, including, but not limited to, reviews, comments, ratings, photos, images, videos, sounds, text, data, links and location information; send emails and other communications; and submit suggestions, ideas, comments, questions, or other information (“User Content”). Any such User Content must not be illegal, threatening, obscene, racist, defamatory, libelous, pornographic, infringing of intellectual property rights, promoting of illegal activity or harm to groups and/or individuals, invasive of a third party’s publicity or privacy rights, purposely false or otherwise injurious to third parties, or objectionable and must not consist of or contain software, computer viruses, commercial solicitation, political campaigning, chain letters, mass mailings, any form of “spam” or references to illegal activity, malpractice, purposeful overcharging, false advertising, or health code violations (e.g., foreign objects in food, food poisoning, etc.).

If you do submit User Content, and unless we indicate otherwise, you grant Booking YoYo a non-exclusive, perpetual, royalty-free, irrevocable, and fully sublicensable (through multiple tiers, including to venues, partners and other third party websites and feeds) right to use, modify, reproduce, adapt, translate, publish, create derivative works from, distribute, display, and otherwise exploit such User Content throughout the world in any media, and, where applicable, you hereby waive any privacy or publicity rights or any similar rights in an individual’s name or likeness in addition to any moral or other rights you may have in the User Content you submit in favor of Booking YoYo.

BOOKING YOYO IS NEITHER AN AGENT OF NOR OTHERWISE ASSOCIATED WITH ANY VENUE FOR WHICH A USER HAS MADE A RESERVATION, CLAIMED AN OFFER OR PROMOTION, OR PAID A BILL USING THE PAYMENT SERVICES OR ANY MERCHANT THAT ISSUES A MERCHANT GIFT CARD. IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF THE UNITED KINGDOM OR EUROPEAN UNION, THE LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IN THIS AGREEMENT SHALL NOT APPLY TO ANY DAMAGE ARISING FROM OUR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT AND GROSS NEGLIGENCE, NOR SHALL IT APPLY TO DAMAGE FROM INJURY TO LIFE, BODY OR HEALTH.
IF THE DISCLAIMER OF DIRECT DAMAGES ABOVE IS NOT ENFORCEABLE AT LAW, YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU (FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION) WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO FIFTY BRITISH POUNDS (£50).
You and Booking YoYo understand and agree that the disclaimers, exclusions, and limitations in this Section 18 and in Section 19 are essential elements of this Agreement and that they represent a reasonable allocation of risk.

BOOKING YOYO EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS, OR INDEMNITIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR ANY WARRANTY ARISING FROM A COURSE OF DEALING, PERFORMANCE, OR TRADE USAGE. BOOKING YOYO DOES NOT WARRANT THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, THAT BOOKING YOYO WILL REVIEW THE INFORMATION OR MATERIALS MADE AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES FOR ACCURACY OR THAT IT WILL PRESERVE OR MAINTAIN ANY SUCH INFORMATION OR MATERIALS WITHOUT LOSS.

THE FOREGOING DISCLAIMERS APPLY TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. YOU MAY HAVE OTHER STATUTORY RIGHTS. HOWEVER, THE DURATION OF STATUTORILY REQUIRED WARRANTIES, IF ANY, SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.
20. Third-Party Websites, Applications and Services. The Services may contain hypertext links to websites and applications operated by parties other than Booking YoYo. Such hypertext links are provided for User’s reference only, and Booking YoYo does not control such websites and is not responsible for their content. Booking YoYo’s inclusion of any hypertext links to such websites or applications does not imply any endorsement of the material on such websites or applications or any association with their operators.

21. Release. Venues and Merchants are solely responsible for their interactions with you and any and all claims, injuries, illnesses, damages, liabilities, and costs (“Claims”) suffered by you (or, if applicable, any recipient of a Booking YoYo Gift Card or a Merchant Gift Card) as a result of your (or such recipient’s) interaction with or visit to any Venue or Merchant or from any promotion, offer, product or service of any Venue or Merchant. Users must resolve all disputes directly with venues. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you hereby release the Booking YoYo Parties from any and all such Claims. IN CONNECTION WITH THE FOREGOING, IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU HEREBY WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH STATES: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” You hereby expressly waive and relinquish all rights and benefits under that section and any law of any jurisdiction of similar effect with respect to the release of any unknown or unsuspected claims you may have against the Booking YoYo Parties pertaining to the subject matter of this Section 21. If you are a resident of the United Kingdom or European Union, this release shall not apply to any damage arising from our willful misconduct or gross negligence, nor shall it apply to damage from injury to life, body or health.

Again, we cannot take action unless you give us all the required information.
23. Severability. If any of the provisions, or portions thereof, of this Agreement are found to be invalid under any applicable statute or rule of law, then, that provision (or portion thereof) notwithstanding, this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and such provision or portion thereof shall be deemed omitted.
24. Assignment. This Agreement and the rights granted and obligations undertaken hereunder may not be transferred, assigned, or delegated in any manner by User, but may be freely transferred, assigned, or delegated by Booking YoYo.
25. Waiver. Any waiver of any provision of this Agreement, or a delay by any party in the enforcement of any right hereunder, shall neither be construed as a continuing waiver nor create an expectation of non-enforcement of that or any other provision or right.
26. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER, CLASS ACTION WAIVER, AND FORUM SELECTION CLAUSE.
If you are a resident of the United States (including its possessions and territories) or Canada, you agree that any and all controversies, disputes, demands, counts, claims, or causes of action (including the interpretation and scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of the controversy, dispute, demand, count, claim, or cause of action) between you and the Booking YoYo Parties or their successors or assigns shall exclusively be settled through binding and confidential arbitration. If you are a resident in Mexico, you hereby expressly waive any right to exercise a class action before a Mexican court against Booking YoYo and Booking YoYo Parties, pursuant to the terms of the Federal Code of Civil Procedure (CódigoFederal de ProcedimientosCiviles) and any other applicable Mexican legislation.
Arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state or provincial/territorial arbitration law. The arbitration shall be conducted before one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. As modified by this Agreement, and unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “Rules and Procedures”).
In the case of arbitration and where permitted by law, you are thus agreeing to GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights EXCEPT for matters that you file in small claims court. Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures are SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. Arbitrator decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
In the case of arbitration and where permitted by law, you and Booking YoYo must abide by the following rules: (1) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR BOOKING YOYO MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; (2) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF; (3) in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to costs of litigation, Booking YoYo will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (4) Booking YoYo also reserves the right in its sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all of the costs of the arbitration; (5) the arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege and privacy recognised at law; (6) the arbitration shall be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (7) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are permitted by applicable law; and (8) each side pays its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded shall be determined by the applicable law.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or Booking YoYo may bring an individual action in small claims court. Further, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret shall not be subject to this arbitration agreement.
With the exception of Booking YoYo Parties (1) and (2) in this Section (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting part was not contained herein. If, however, either subpart (1) or (2) is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither you nor Booking YoYo shall be entitled to arbitration. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration (including any claims brought by parties outside the United Kingdom or EU), it will be brought to a court in the region of Greater London.
27. Choice of Law. This Agreement is made under and shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United Kingdom. You may also be entitled to certain consumer protection rights under the laws of your local jurisdiction and/or country of residency. If you are a resident of a European Union member country, parties may be able to resolve consumer disputes in the way of alternative dispute resolution on the ODR platform of the European Commission. The platform is available at http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
REVISION DATE: June 4th, 2018
