We encourage you to read this Privacy Policy carefully when using our application or services or transacting business with us. By using our website or application (our "app" or "Service"), you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy. For purposes of this Agreement, "Service" refers to the Company’s service which can be accessed via our website at www.kisskross.us or through our mobile application "Kiss Kross" available on iOS and Android in which users can create a social profile and connect to other users.

Information We Collect
- We collect "Non-Personal Information" and "Personal Information." Non-Personal Information includes information that cannot be used to personally identify you, such as anonymous usage data, general demographic information we may collect, referring/exit pages and URLs, platform types, preferences you submit and preferences that are generated based on the data you submit and number of clicks. Personal Information includes your email, mobile phone number, interests, gender, birthday, education history, relationship interests, location, photos, personal profile description, and friends/contacts. If you choose to sign up for Kiss Kross using your Facebook login, you authorize us to access certain Facebook account information, including your public Facebook profile, consistent with your privacy settings in Facebook. This access includes the type of Personal Information described above. In addition, you authorize us to access information about your likes, and information about and photos of your Facebook friends who might be common Facebook friends with other Kiss Kross users.
- In order to provide and maintain quality of the Service, we track information provided to us by your device when you download or use the Service.

You agree that any cause of action related to or arising out of your relationship with the Company must commence within ONE year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
These Terms of Use and your use of the Site are governed by the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to conflict of law provisions.
The Company may assign or delegate these Terms of Service and/or the Company's Privacy Policy, in whole or in part, to any person or entity at any time with or without your consent.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
Except as provided in this Agreement, you and the Service agree that any cause of action, legal claim, or dispute between you and the Service arising out of or related to these Terms must be resolved by arbitration on an individual basis. Class actions and class arbitrations are not permitted; you and the Service may bring a claim only on your own behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other Service users. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular claim (or a request for particular relief) cannot be arbitrated in accordance with this provision's limitations, then only that claim (or only that request for relief) may be brought in court. All other claims (or requests for relief) remain subject to this provision.
Instead of using arbitration, you or the Service can bring claims in your local "small claims" court, if the rules of that court will allow it. If you don't bring your claims in small claims court (or if there is an appeal of a small claims court judgment to a court of general jurisdiction), then the claims must be resolved by binding, individual arbitration. The American Arbitration Association will administer all arbitrations under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. You and the Service expressly waive a trial by jury.
The following claims do not have to be arbitrated and may be brought in court: disputes related to intellectual property (like copyrights and trademarks) or efforts to interfere with the Service or engage with the Service in unauthorized ways (for example, automated ways). In addition, issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision may be decided by a court.
This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
You can opt out of this provision within 30 days of the date that you agreed to these Terms. To opt out, you must send your name, residence address, username, email address, and phone number you use for your Service account, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement, and you must send them here: Kiss Kross. 281 E. Main Street, Somerville NJ 08876.
Before you commence arbitration of a claim, you must provide us with a written Notice of Dispute that includes your name, residence address, username, email address or phone number you use for your Service account, a detailed description of the dispute, and the relief you seek.
