Please read these terms and conditions carefully. They contain important information about your rights and obligations and constitute a binding legal agreement between you and DNA MY Horse and its affiliate companies (“Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”) regarding your use of the Service and Site. BY USING THE SERVICES, YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS AND AFFIRM THAT YOU ARE ABLE AND LEGALLY COMPETENT TO DO SO.

IMPORTANT NOTE: THESE TERMS CONTAIN PROVISIONS THAT LIMIT OUR LIABILITY TO YOU AND REQUIRE YOU TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE WITH US THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, IF ANY, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. Please see "DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES & LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY" (Section 18) and "DISPUTE RESOLUTION" (Section 20) below for more information.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ANY PART OF THESE TERMS, THEN PLEASE DO NOT USE THE SERVICES.

1. Binding Terms: These Terms and Conditions shall govern the testing services provided to the undersigned customer ("Customer") by DNA My Horse ("DNA My Horse") or ("Company") in accordance with the DNA Test Sample Submission Form. This is a legally binding agreement between Customer and DNA My Horse.

2. DNA My Horse shall provide testing services to the customer as described on the DNA submission form in accordance with the terms and conditions described below. This constitutes a legally binding agreement between the customer and DNA My Horse.

3. DNA My Horse shall store and process all samples sent by the customer with care and attention for so long as is required to perform the testing undertaken. All samples become the sole property of DNA My Horse, who shall have no obligation to return or subsequently store samples. DNA My Horse retains the right to dispose of remnant sample or utilize these for subsequent research.

3a. Upon receipt of a Sample, DNA My Horse will analyze the horse’s DNA to determine the breed(s) present in its recent ancestry. The DNA My Horse Products are based upon the DNA My Horse database of breeds. If a horse’s ancestry contains breeds not represented in our database, the results may identify related breeds that are contained in the database. Test results may also be inconclusive if the sample is tested and breed algorithm paramters are not met (in which case any inconclusive results will be automatically processed as a refund).

4. It is the customer’s responsibility to ensure that he has the legal right to submit a sample from the horse in question. The customer also accepts the responsibility of providing accurate information at the time of purchase; where there are inaccuracies, for example misspelling of names, DNA My Horse reserves the right to make additional administration charges to make corrections.

5. Cautions: A number of factors can impact the accuracy of the Service and test results, including without limitation, your ability to provide sufficient and uncontaminated biological samples as required by the instructions in the DNA Submission Sheet. YOU AGREE WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY TESTING OR OTHER SERVICE ERRORS CAUSED BY YOU OR YOUR FAILURE TO PROVIDE SAMPLES STRICTLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH KIT INSTRUCTIONS. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE ERROR-FREE, ACCURATE, RELIABLE OR THAT THE SERVICE WILL ACHIEVE OR PRODUCE ANY PARTICULAR RESULT (WHETHER EXPRESSLY SPECIFIED BY YOU OR NOT) Or THAT THE results OF THE SERVICE will be accepted by a particular entity.

Using a proprietary analysis and database, the Service can provide among other things, insight into the breed ancestry of a Horse and breed-related risks of developing certain diseases. While the Service can help identify risk factors associated with certain diseases or conditions, they are not intended to diagnose diseases or predict behavior in any particular Horse. In the unlikely event that it is not possible to determine breed history, ancestry, genetic-disease results, or to complete or fulfill any other service or product order requested by you, or any aspect thereof, or that an error in any of the analyses conducted by DNA My Horse occurs, liability by DNA My Horse or related companies and individuals is expressly disclaimed. Damages, if any, are limited to the payment actually received by DNA My Horse for the specified analysis at issue.

26. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

These Terms are governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New Jersey, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws of such state, and are binding upon the parties hereto in the United States and worldwide. You and DNA My Horse agree that the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply to the interpretation or construction of these Terms.

YOU AND DNA MY HORSE AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION IN THE MANNER SPECIFIED IN THIS SECTION 20 AND THAT YOU AND DNA MY HORSE WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO BRING SUCH CLAIMS BEFORE ANY COURT OF LAW.

YOU AND DNA MY HORSE FURTHER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS ACCESS TO DISCOVERY, ALSO MAY BE UNAVAILABLE OR LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.

Any dispute between you and DNA My Horse and its agents, employees, officers, directors, principals, successors, assigns, subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively for purposes of this Section 20, "DNA My Horse Parties") arising from or relating to these Terms and their interpretation or the breach, termination or validity thereof, the relationships which result from these Terms, including disputes about the validity, scope or enforceability of this agreement to arbitration (collectively, "Covered Disputes") will be settled by binding arbitration in the U.S. State of New Jersey administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules in effect on the date thereof.

Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60 days' advanced written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. DNA My Horse will provide such notice by mail or e-mail using the contact information on file with DNA My Horse and you must provide such notice by mail to DNA My Horse, Attn: Legal Department, 203 Main Street #132, Flemington, NJ 08822

Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. If, however, you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be cost-prohibitive for you as compared to the costs of litigation, DNA My Horse will pay as much of the filing, administration and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive for you. If the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are frivolous, you agree to reimburse DNA My Horse for all fees associated with the arbitration that DNA My Horse paid on your behalf, which you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA's rules.

A single arbitrator will be selected in accordance with the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. The arbitrator will have the power to grant whatever relief would be available in court under law or in equity and any award of the arbitrator will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator will not, however, have the power to award punitive or exemplary damages, the right to which each party hereby waives. The arbitrator will apply applicable law and the provisions of these Terms and the failure to do so will be deemed an excess of arbitral authority and grounds for judicial review. The arbitrator’s decision must be with written explanation and remain confidential.

DNA My Horse and you agree that any Covered Dispute will be submitted to arbitration on an individual basis only. Neither DNA My Horse nor you are entitled to arbitrate any Covered Dispute as a class, representative or private-attorney action and the arbitrator will have no authority to proceed on a class, representative or private attorney general basis. If any provision of the agreement to arbitrate in this Section 20 is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced (but in no case will there be a class, representative or private attorney general arbitration). Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, notice on any claim arising from or related to these Terms must be made within one (1) year after such claim arose or be forever barred. For purposes of this Section 20, these Terms and related transactions will be subject to and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA).

Please Note: By agreeing to these Terms, you explicitly agree that any claims or actions that you may otherwise have against DNA My Horse under the laws of any jurisdiction outside the United States are hereby waived, including without limitation, any claims or actions under the laws of your own country, and that your sole location and applicable law for any dispute is in the United States according to the terms of this Section 20.

LEGAL NOTICE TO NEW JERSEY RESIDENTS: The provisions in this section that (i) limit the period of time within which a claim may be asserted against DNA My Horse and (2) exclude certain damages do not apply to New Jersey residents.

27. Termination

These Terms automatically terminate when you fail to comply with any term or condition of them. DNA My Horse may terminate or modify your access to the Services, including the Sites, with or without notice to you, at any time for any reason.

(e) If any part of these Conditions is unenforceable (including any provision in which the Company excludes its liability to you) the enforceability of any other part of these Conditions will not be affected and the unenforceable provision shall be replaced by an enforceable provision that comes closest to the intention underlying the unenforceable provision.

(f) No waiver by the Company of any term or condition set forth in these Conditions shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition. The Company’s failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Conditions shall not be construed as a waiver of any right.
