You can do this via the Site or through your account with certain third-party social networking services such as Facebook (each, an “SNS Account”). If you choose the SNS Account option we’ll create your Account by extracting from your SNS Account certain personal information such as your name and email address and other personal information that your privacy settings on the SNS Account permit us to access.

6. Feedback. We welcome feedback, comments and suggestions for improvements to the Services (“Feedback”). You can submit Feedback by emailing us at [email protected]. You grant to us a non-exclusive, transferable, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, fully-paid, royalty-free license, with the right to sublicense, under any and all intellectual property rights that you own or control to use, copy, modify, create derivative works based upon and otherwise exploit the Feedback for any purpose.
7. Payment. We require payment of a fee for use of the Services (or certain portions thereof) and you agree to pay such fees.
(a) General. When you purchase a subscription to the Services (such purchase, a “Transaction”) you expressly authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to supply additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment method(s) represented by any such Payment Information. When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to third parties so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected (plus any applicable taxes and other charges). You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity before completing your Transaction (such information is included within the definition of Payment Information).
(b) Subscription. You will be charged the monthly subscription fee, plus any applicable taxes and other charges (“Subscription Fee”) on the date you purchase the Subscription and every month thereafter. BY PURCHASING A SUBSCRIPTION, YOU AUTHORIZE US TO INITIATE RECURRING NON-REFUNDABLE PAYMENTS AS SET FORTH BELOW. If you purchase a Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you each month on the anniversary of the commencement of your Subscription, using the Payment Information you have provided until you cancel your Subscription. By agreeing to these Terms and electing to purchase a Subscription, you acknowledge that your Subscription has recurring payment features and you accept responsibility for all recurring payment obligations prior to cancellation of your Subscription.
(c) Canceling your Subscription. To cancel your Subscription, you can send an email to [email protected]. You can also cancel your Subscription by visiting “Manage your Account” on the Services. You will be responsible for all Subscription Fees incurred for the then-current Subscription period. IN NO EVENT WILL YOU RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID FOR THE THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION. If you cancel, your right to use the Services will continue until the end of your then current Subscription period and will then terminate without further charges with the exception of being eligible to receive the $3,000 Emergency Fund. By canceling your Subscription, you agree to waive your right to receive any funds in the event of an emergency.
8. Emergency Fund. If your Subscription includes access to VCH’s $3,000 emergency fund (the “Emergency Fund”), you will be subject to our VetCare Emergency Fund Guidelines (which are incorporated by reference herein and which supplement these Terms). By subscribing to the Emergency Fund, you acknowledge and agree that:
(a) There is a 14-day mandatory wait period upon starting your Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline Subscription before the Emergency Fund is available to you (the “Wait Period”). If a veterinary doctor determines you are having an emergency and need immediate care for your pet before the expiration of the Wait Period, the Emergency Fund will not yet be at your disposal. You will also be subject to the Wait Period again if you cancel and reactivate your Account.
(b) The Emergency Fund is only available to you if your Subscription Fees are made continuously and without interruption. If the payment method we have on file for you fails, you will lose access to the Emergency Fund. If you cancel your Account, you will lose access to the Emergency Fund. You can update your payment method through the Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline App.
(c) If you suspect your pet is having an emergency and needs immediate care, you must consult our veterinary doctors before gaining access to the Emergency Fund. All emergencies must be assessed and referred by one of our veterinary doctors through the platform. You can talk to a vet through the Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline App. A live face to face video call or a video recording is mandatory to determine if it is an emergency or not. You cannot access the Emergency Fund if the pet has been admitted for emergency care prior to contacting one of our veterinary doctors as set forth above.
(d) The Emergency Fund only pays for the initial emergency care. All other follow up care is at the expense of the pet owner. Additionally, the Emergency Fund will not cover additional costs associated with euthanasia, such as cremation or memorabilia.
(e) The Emergency Fund is restricted to a one-time annual pay-out in an amount not to exceed $3,000, regardless of the amount of the emergency. In other words, you are only entitled to access the Emergency Fund one time during each year of your Subscription, even if the emergency is less than the $3,000 limit.
(f) You have up to a maximum of 4 hours to take your pet to an emergency clinic or any veterinary clinic of your choice after being referred by our vets. If you exceed the 4-hour period to use the Emergency Fund, the funds will not be released for your pet’s care.
(g) You will not qualify for the Emergency Fund if our veterinary doctors have previously recommended a visit to your vet clinic and you failed to comply. Waiting to take your pet in for medical care can result in an unnecessary emergency for your pet and we do not support medical negligence.
(h) The Emergency Fund only covers your cats and dogs. No other pets are entitled to participate in the Emergency Fund. You may be required to provide proof of ownership of your pet in the form of a pet license or registration.
(i) You can take your pet to any veterinary clinic located within the United States. Please keep in mind that some clinics require a deposit before accepting your pet for evaluation. We cannot provide the deposit for you, however, upon receiving the final invoice, the deposit will be included in the final payment issued by Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline. This means whatever deposit you left upon checking in will be credited back to your account at the discretion of the clinic.
(j) The Emergency Fund is non-transferable to other parties and their pets.
(k) We do not cover emergencies associated with breeding or pregnancy issues.
(l) In order to gain access to your emergency fund, we require completed profiles for all of your pets with their name, age, weight, breed, and a clear photo. If this information is missing, you will not have access to your emergency fund.

The laws, regulations, other governing authorities, standards, practices and procedures that apply to your particular question or situation may differ depending on your location and information typically discovered through in-person evaluation.

(c) THE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS OF DAMAGES SET FORTH ABOVE ARE FUNDAMENTAL ELEMENTS OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN BUCKEYE K9 EMERGENCY HOTLINE AND YOU.
16. Governing Law and Forum Choice. These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in Section 17, “Dispute Resolution”, the exclusive jurisdiction for all Disputes (defined below) that you and Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline are not required to arbitrate will be the state and federal courts located in the Northern District of New York (Albany Division), and you and Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
17. Dispute Resolution.
(a) Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services or Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
(b) Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 17(a) above: (i) we both may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.
(c) Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org. Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live, unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.
(d) Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won’t seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration, we’ll pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
(e) Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 17(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
(f) Class Action Waiver. YOU AND BUCKEYE K9 EMERGENCY HOTLINE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
(g) Severability. With the exception of any of the provisions in Section 17(f) of these Terms (“Class Action Waiver“), if an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction decides that any part of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable, the other parts of these Terms will still apply.
18. General Terms.
(a) Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline and you regarding the Services, and these Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline and you regarding the Services. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline’s prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null. Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.

Any notices or other communications provided by Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline under these Terms, including those regarding modifications to these Terms, will be given: (i) via email; or (ii) by posting to the Services. For notices made by e-mail, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.
(c) Waiver of Rights Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of Buckeye K9 Emergency Hotline.
