Acting on behalf of you, your Property Manager, your Landlord, or your Employer, we may provide notices to you regarding this Agreement and/or as part of the Services by electronic communications (including e-mails, text messages, and notifications through the Mobile Application).

These electronic communications may affect your legal relationship with SmartRent so you should read or listen to them carefully.
SmartRent does not charge for text messages, but you may incur charges or fees by your wireless provider to receive or reply to them. For example, where a communication must be sent to a Mobile Device (for example, for the purposes of two-factor authentication, an access code) you are responsible for procuring and paying for that device, and for any charges from your mobile service carrier, which are your sole responsibility. Message and data rates may apply. Landline and international numbers are not eligible for this feature.
SmartRent relies on the contact information that you provide, including but not limited to your email address and telephone numbers, to be accurate and up to date.

If you do not do so you may be held responsible for any costs, losses or damage suffered as a result.
Message frequency is dependent on the Service usage. You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by replying “STOP” from the Mobile Device receiving the text messages. In addition, you may text “STOP” to opt out at any time. You may continue to receive text messages for a short period while we process your request, and you will also receive a one-time text message confirming receipt of your request. For text message Service support or assistance, reply “HELP”.
We may change any short code or telephone number we use to operate the text message Service at any time.

The wireless carriers supported by the text message service and SmartRent are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. If you change your mobile phone number, you agree to opt out of the text message service prior to changing your mobile number. Without limiting any other provision in this Agreement, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us harmless from any third-party claims, liability, damages, or costs arising from your use of the text message service or from you supply us with a phone number that is not your own.

23. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration; Class Action Waiver section (collectively, the “Dispute Resolution”) provides that all disputes between you and SmartRent shall be resolved by binding arbitration and that you expressly waive your right to a court or jury trial and/or your right to initiate a class action. For the purpose of this Dispute Resolution section, the reference to SmartRent includes its directors, employees, agents, affiliates, licensees, service providers, property landlord, and property manager. Prior to bringing action for any dispute, you must first give SmartRent an opportunity to resolve the dispute. You must commence this process by mailing a written notification to SmartRent at 8665 E. Hartford Drive, Suite 120, Scottsdale, AZ 85255. That written notification must include (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) a written description of your dispute, and (4) a description of the specific relief you seek. If SmartRent does not resolve the dispute within 45 days after it receives your written notification, you may pursue your dispute in arbitration.
ARBITRATION REPLACES THE RIGHT TO GO TO THE COURT TO RESOLVE DISPUTES. YOU AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT.
Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitration proceedings shall be heard by one independent arbitrator who shall be an attorney or retired judge. The arbitration shall be held in Scottsdale, Arizona. All matters within the scope of the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. 1, et seq.) will be governed by it and not by any state arbitration law. The tribunal shall have the power to rule on any challenge to its own jurisdiction or to the validity or enforceability of any portion of the agreement to arbitrate. The parties agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and that this agreement does not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative arbitration proceeding. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. Notwithstanding any preexisting right of the tribunal to rule upon the tribunal's power to rule on its own jurisdiction and the validity or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate, the tribunal has no power to rule on the validity or enforceability of the agreement to arbitrate solely on an individual basis. In the event the prohibition on class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of the arbitration agreement will remain in force.
Confidential. Other than as may be required by law, the entire arbitration proceedings (including, but not limited to, any rulings, decisions, or orders of the arbitrator), shall remain confidential and not be disclosed to anyone other than the parties to this Agreement.
Limitations Period. Any and all claims and actions arising out of or relating to the use of the Services shall be commenced within one (1) year from the occurrence of the facts giving rise to such claim or action, or such claim or action shall be barred.
24. Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and constructed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona, excluding its conflict of laws principles. The exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute not covered by the terms of the Dispute Resolution provision set forth in this Agreement may be filed only in the state or federal courts located in the State of Arizona, United States.
YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY NOW HAVE OR HEREAFTER POSSESS TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
25. No Waiver
No waiver of any provision in this Agreement shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by SmartRent. No waiver of any provision, or any breach of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions or constitute acceptance of any other or further breach.
26. Severability
If any provision or portion of this Agreement should be held unenforceable, illegal, or invalid for any reason, then that provision or portion shall be modified or deleted in such manner as to render the remainder of the provision and remaining provisions of the Agreement valid and enforceable.
