At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration to some or all of our subscribers to a Service (“credits”). The amount and form of such credits, and the decision to provide them, are at our sole and absolute discretion.

We may rely on suppliers, vendors, and third parties to assist us providing the EMS Plan and in routing communications to local, regional, or national emergency calling centers and emergency response centers. We disclaim any and all liability or responsibility in the event third party data used to route communications is incorrect, not sent, or yields an erroneous result.

- 25. Malware Vulnerability Notice and Waiver
Equipment that relies on wireless or internet connections or are connected to a network of any kind (such as security systems, communications equipment, cameras, cloud storage, and other kinds of networkable security and other devices) may not be secure and may be exploited or hacked by malware and spyware variants (“Malware Vulnerabilities”). Malware Vulnerabilities may provide a gateway for a person with malicious intent the capability to arm or disarm your system or related equipment; view, extract, change, destroy, steal, disclose or alter your data, or the data of others; monitor and/or spy on your activities and the activities of others; cause internet and network outages; provide for unintended or unauthorized access by others to your network, or the network of others; and otherwise place people, property or data at risk. CANOPY MAKES NO WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION THAT THE PRODUCTS OR SERVICES ARE SECURE, DO NOT HAVE, OR ARE NOT SUSCEPTIBLE TO, MALWARE VULNERABILITIES. Canopy assumes no liability whatsoever for any Malware Vulnerabilities and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to release and hold Canopy harmless from any Malware Vulnerabilities and any related loss or damage of any kind or sort, even if caused by any breach of contract or negligence of any kind or degree of Canopy (the “Malware Vulnerability Release”). If the Malware Vulnerability Release is not enforceable under applicable law for any reason, then the limitation of liability set forth in Section 23 shall apply to any losses or damages, of any kind or sort, arising from, or related to, Malware Vulnerabilities.
- 26. Indemnification
- General Indemnity. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless our Company and its Affiliates from and against any and all claims, costs, proceedings, demands, losses, damages, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and legal costs) of any kind or nature, relating to, any actual or alleged breach of these Terms by you or anyone using your account. If we assume the defense of such a matter, you will reasonably cooperate with us in such defense.
- Third-Party Indemnification: You understand and agree these Terms are intended only for your benefit. Therefore, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and without limiting the general indemnity set forth above, you agree to indemnify, defend, release and hold Canopy harmless from and against: (i) all claims, actions, lawsuits and any other legal action brought by any third party against Canopy arising from or relating to these Terms, (a “Third-Party Action”); and (ii) any and all related losses, damages, settlements and judgements (including payment of attorneys’ fees and costs by Canopy) incurred by, assessed or found against, or made by Canopy relating to or arising from any such Third Party Action (“Third Party Related Losses”), even if such Third Party Action and Third Party Related Losses arise from the negligence of any kind or degree of Canopy, breach of contract or warranty or condition, strict liability, non-compliance with applicable law or other fault. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to require any indemnification which would render or make this clause, in whole or in part, void and/or unenforceable under applicable law. This indemnification obligation shall not apply to any willful, wanton, intentional or reckless misconduct of Canopy or the gross negligence of Canopy in those jurisdictions that do not permit limitation of liability for gross negligence. As used herein, “third party” is defined to include any person or entity who did not electronically sign these Terms, including without limitation, a spouse, family member, guest, neighbor, tenant, employee or insurance company.
- 27. Informal Dispute Resolution
We try to address any disputes without the need to initiate a formal legal case. You agree that prior to submitting any dispute or claim to arbitration for resolution, you and we agree to make a good faith effort to resolve it informally, including having at least one telephone conversation between you, personally, and us. To initiate this good faith effort to informally resolve a dispute, you agree to notify us in writing at legal@canopy.security of the nature of this dispute, the basis for your claims and the resolution that you are seeking, including any monetary amount, with as much detail as you can provide so that we can gain a sufficient understanding of the dispute. During the sixty (60) days following receipt of this notice, you agree to engage in good faith efforts to resolve the dispute, including personally participating in a telephone call with us. You may have a lawyer attend the call with you if you wish. If the dispute is not resolved within that sixty (60) days (which period can be extended by agreement of the parties), you or we may commence an arbitration to resolve the dispute consistent with the process set forth below. Compliance with and completing this informal dispute resolution process is a condition precedent to filing an arbitration. You and we may agree, via a separate signed agreement, to toll the statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce this condition precedent to arbitration, which includes the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a demand for arbitration.
- 28. Arbitration Agreement & Waiver of Certain Rights
YOU AND CANOPY AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN US SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THIS BINDING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. You and Canopy agree that, except as set forth below, we will resolve any and all controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes between you and Canopy or you and a third-party agent of Canopy (a “Claim”) through final and binding arbitration instead of through court proceedings in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). As used herein, the term “Claim” means any claim or controversy, including, but not limited to, initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims, whether based in contract; tort; fraud; intentional acts; violation of any statute, code or regulation; or other legal theory. The term “Claim” shall be given the broadest possible meaning and will apply to, without limitation, all claims and controversies arising from this Agreement; sales activities; goods and services; advertisements, promotions and other statements; billing and collection practices; privacy; and any other claim arising from my interaction or relationship with Canopy. This arbitration agreement applies to any existing or future Claims that you have not individually filed in a court of law prior to the date you agreed to these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. YOU AND WE HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator at a location within the federal judicial district in which you reside. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration proceedings will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration, by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies, or as specifically permitted by state law. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. However, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, validity, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send us an individual letter signed by you requesting arbitration and describing your claim to legal@canopy.security. This letter must be received at least five (5) days before you initiate an arbitration proceeding against us.
Any party to the arbitration may, at any time more than ten (10) days before the arbitration hearing, serve an offer of compromise in writing upon any other party to the action. Offers of compromise pursuant to these Terms will be adjudicated and interpreted in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure section 998.
Upon your request, Canopy will reimburse you for all filing and administrative fees required for initiating the arbitration. Otherwise, each party is responsible for its own respective costs and fees, including, but not limited to, attorney and expert fees. The arbitrator shall apply applicable substantive law and, upon the request of either party, issue a written explanation of the basis for the decision. If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Canopy will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or Canopy from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and Canopy also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court or transfer qualifying claims to small claims court. In addition, you and Canopy retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms.
Neither you nor Canopy may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. You may not bring Claims in arbitration on a class, consolidated, or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or Canopy individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated without prior written consent of the parties. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration we each waive any right to a jury trial. The arbitrator may award in the arbitration the same damages or other relief available under applicable law, including injunctive and declaratory relief, as if the action were brought in court on an individual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or herein, the arbitrator may not issue a “public injunction” and any such “public injunction” may be awarded only by a federal or state court. If either party seeks a “public injunction,” all other claims and prayers for relief must be adjudicated in arbitration first and any prayer or claim for a “public injunction” in federal or state court stayed until the arbitration is completed, after which the federal or state court can adjudicate the party’s claim or prayer for “public injunctive relief.” In doing so, the federal or state court is bound under principles of claim or issue preclusion by the decision of the arbitrator.
THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR CANOPY WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION. If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section will continue in full force and effect. This Section of these Terms will survive the termination of your relationship with Canopy.
- 29.Mass Arbitration Process Requirements
If twenty-five (25) or more similar claims are asserted against Canopy by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated (and your claim is one such claim), you understand and agree that the resolution of your dispute might be delayed. You also agree to the following process and application of the AAA Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule and Supplementary Rules. Counsel for the claimants and Canopy’s counsel shall each select ten (10) cases (per side) to proceed first in individual arbitration proceedings as part of a bellwether process. The remaining cases shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration nor shall any AAA fees be assessed in connection with those claims until they are selected to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the initial twenty (20) proceedings, the parties shall participate in a global mediation session before a retired state or federal court judge, and Canopy will pay the mediator's fee. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining matters through mediation at this time, then each side shall select twenty (20) cases (per side) to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a second bellwether process. (If there are fewer than forty (40) claims remaining, all shall proceed.) The remaining cases shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration nor shall any AAA fees be assessed in connection with those cases until they are selected to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. A single arbitrator shall preside over each case. Only one case may be assigned to each arbitrator as part of a bellwether process unless the parties agree otherwise. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the forty (40) proceedings, the parties shall participate in another global mediation session before a retired state or federal court judge, and Canopy will pay the mediator's fee. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining matters in mediation at this time, this staged process shall continue with one hundred (100) cases proceeding at one time that are selected randomly or by the AAA in staged sets, until all the claims included in these coordinated filings, including your case, are adjudicated or otherwise resolved. Between staged sets of proceedings, we agree to participate in a global mediation session should your counsel request it in an effort to resolve all remaining claims. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled for claims subject to this section regarding “Disputes” from the time the first cases are selected for a bellwether process until the time your case is selected, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enforce this paragraph and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing or prosecution of arbitration demands against Canopy. Should a court of competent jurisdiction decline to enforce these "Mass Arbitration Process Requirements," you and we agree that your and our counsel shall engage in good faith with the assistance of a Process Arbitrator to devise and implement procedures that ensure that arbitration remains efficient and cost-effective for all parties. Either party may engage with the AAA to address reductions in arbitration fees.
- 30.Other Provisions

The only exception to this agreed-upon choice of law, is the application California Code of Civil Procedure section 998, as discussed above in the Agreement to Arbitrate (Section 28).
- Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the enforceability of any other provisions.
- Waiver. The failure by us to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not prevent us from enforcing such right or provision in the future.
- Assignment. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets or equity, or by operation of law.
- 31. Changes to these Terms

Changes will not apply retroactively and will become effective thirty (30) days after Canopy provides you with notice of any changes to these Terms. If you are dissatisfied with any changes to these Terms, you may stop using the Site and Services and cancel your subscription in accordance with Section 5 of these Terms.
