7. Links to Third-Party Sites

Our website may link to third party websites for your convenience. We do not endorse, sponsor, control, monitor, or warranty any such sites or associated services. You access such websites at your own risk and as governed by their terms of use (not ours).

8. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Incipio and its affiliates makes no warranties, expressed or implied, regarding our services. We hereby disclaim and negate all other warranties, including — without limitation — implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights. Our website is provided as is.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Incipio and its affiliates shall not be held liable for any direct, indirect, special, incidental, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages or any loss of use, data, business, or profits, regardless of legal theory, whether or not Incipio has been warned of the possibility of such damages or such damages were foreseeable, and even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Incipio’s aggregate liability for all claims related to our services shall not exceed $100 or the amount paid by you to Incipio for the services in question, whichever is greater.

9. Release and Indemnity

You agree to release, forever discharge, and hold harmless Incipio, our employees, and our affiliates (as well as their respective officers, employees, directors, and agents) from any and all losses, damages, expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, rights, claims, and actions for any kind of injury (including death) arising out of or relating to your use or misuse of our services, on behalf of yourself and your heirs, executors, agents, representatives, and assigns. You agree that this release has been freely and voluntarily consented to and you confirm that you fully understand what this agreement means.

Incipio reserves the exclusive right to settle, compromise, and pay claims or losses resulting from your use or misuse of our services and to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will cooperate in asserting any available defenses. In any event, you agree to not settle any claims without prior written consent by Incipio.

10. Termination

Incipio reserves the right, at its discretion and without notice, to terminate your license to use these services and to block or prevent your access to and use of the services. In the event of such termination, you agree that you have no right to obtain a copy of any data or communications you stored or effected via the services.

11. Mandatory Arbitration, Dispute Resolution, & Class Action Waiver

In the event of a dispute arises between you and Incipio, we mutually agree that the party initiating the dispute will inform the other in writing and then work together for 60 to resolve the dispute informally. You agree to inform us via email at team@incipio.law; we agree to inform you via email at the address you most recently provided us, or if that’s not possible via any other contact information reasonably calculated to reach you. (If you have provided us no such contact information, we have no obligation under this paragraph.) For a period of 60 days from the date of receipt of notice, you and Incipio will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the dispute through informal means.

If Incipio is not able to resolve a dispute with you through informal means, then we mutually agree to resolve any such dispute through binding arbitration under the auspices of JAMS Alternative Dispute Resolution (“JAMS”), and not to sue in court. JAMS will administer any such arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes, and the arbitrator’s decision will be final except for a limited right of review under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”). Before moving an unresolved informal dispute into arbitration, you must first send us a Notice of Dispute describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and the specific relief sought, via email to team@incipio.law.

Arbitration must be commenced by filing a demand for arbitration with JAMS within one year from when it first could be filed. Otherwise, the claim is permanently barred. If applicable law prohibits a one-year limitation period for asserting claims, any claim must be asserted within the shortest time period permitted by applicable law.

Whenever feasible, the arbitration will be held telephonically unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. In-person hearings shall be held in Delaware or any other location as to which we may then mutually agree.

You may only resolve disputes with us on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren’t allowed.

The enforcement of the arbitrator’s award will be controlled by and conducted in conformity with the FAA. Judgment upon any award may be entered in any court holding jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding our agreement to arbitrate disputes as provided above, the following exceptions will apply to the resolution of disputes between us:

Small Claims Court: Either you or Incipio may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Delaware. Any small claims court action must be filed within one year from when it first could be filed.

Injunctive relief: Incipio may bring a lawsuit against you in any court of competent jurisdiction solely for injunctive relief to stop any unauthorized use or abuse of our services, or any intellectual property infringement. In these instances, Incipio may seek injunctive relief without first engaging in the informal dispute resolution or arbitration process described above.

Disputes not covered by arbitration: In the event that the agreement to arbitrate provided herein is found to be inapplicable or unenforceable for any reason, then as a condition to your use of our services we agree that any resulting judicial proceedings will be brought in the federal or state courts of Los Angeles, California, and you and Incipio expressly consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts.

12. Entire Agreement

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Incipio with respect to the subject matter of these Terms, and supersede and replace any other agreements (including previous versions of these Terms). These Terms create no third party beneficiary rights.

13. Controlling Law

These Terms of Use and any disputes arising under them will be governed by California law (without regard to its choice of law principles).

14. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severed to the extent necessary for the remainder to be valid and enforceable.

15. Construction

Section headings within these Terms are provided for convenience only and have no legal effect.

Throughout these Terms, the word “including” shall be deemed to mean “including, without limitation.”

To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to waive any statutory or common law principles that dictate that a contract should be construed against its drafter.

16. Waiver

No failure or delay by Incipio in exercising any of its rights, powers, or remedies will operate as a waiver of such rights, powers, or remedies.

17. Assignment

You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms or delegate your duties under them. Incipio may assign its rights or delegate its duties, in whole or in part, to any party without notice.

18. Modification

No modification of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by the party against whom the waiver or modification is sought to be enforced.

19. Revision

Incipio may change the provisions of these Terms at any time, and any new or revised terms will immediately govern subsequent use of our services. (You can reject new or revised terms by discontinuing use of our services.) We will always post the most up-to-date version of these Terms here on our website.

You may opt out of email communications from us by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of the emails, or following instructions in our text messages. You may also opt out of email communications by contacting us using the information in Section 12 of this Privacy Policy. Please note that if you opt out of marketing communications, we may still send you service-related communications such as an email informing you about information related to your claim, or a notice of changes to our legal terms, including this Privacy Policy.

4.2. Privacy Rights.

Residents of certain jurisdictions, such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, and Utah, may have certain rights regarding their “personal data,” as defined in these states’ laws (“personal information”), that we process.

Applicable law may permit you to request that we:

Confirm whether or not we are processing your personal information and provide you with access to such personal information;
Provide you the categories of personal information we have collected or disclosed about you; the categories of sources of such information; the business or commercial purpose for collecting, “sharing” or “selling” your personal information as those terms are defined under applicable law; the categories of third parties to whom we disclose or “sell” or with whom we “share” personal information; and the categories of personal information we “sell” or “share” (much of which is already provided above).
Correct inaccuracies in your personal information, taking into account the nature of the personal information and the purposes of the processing of the personal information;
Delete your personal information;
Provide you a copy of personal information that you previously provided to us in a portable and, to the extent technically feasible, readily usable format that allows you to transmit the data to another business, where our processing is carried out by automated means; and
Opt you out of processing of personal information for purposes of profiling in furtherance of decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects concerning you (please note that we do not engage in this kind of processing).

To exercise these rights, you can email us at team@incipio,law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.

We may ask you to provide us with information necessary to reasonably verify your identity before responding to your request. You can also designate an authorized agent to make a request on your behalf. To do so, you must provide us with written authorization or a power of attorney, signed by you, for the agent to act on your behalf. You may still need to verify your identity directly with us.

We will consider all requests and provide our response within the time period required by applicable law. Please note, however, that certain information may be exempt from such requests (e.g., where we are required to keep information for legal purposes, or where deletion of information would prevent us from providing services you have requested).

Applicable law may also permit you to appeal any denials of your rights requests; to do so, contact us at team@incipio.law and describe in detail why you believe the denial was in error. Your description must include your full name and the email address used for your account with us, along with a copy of the denial notice you received from us.

You also have the right to opt out of the processing of the “sale” of your personal information and the processing of your personal information for purposes of “targeted advertising,” as defined in applicable law. To opt out of our use of cookies, pixels and similar technologies for purposes that could be considered “sales” or processing for purposes of “targeted advertising” (i.e., “share”), you can disable cookies by following the instructions in the “Cookies” section of this Privacy Policy. To submit a request to opt out of our disclosure of information other than through cookies and similar technologies that are subject to applicable opt out rights, you can email us at team@incipio.law.

4.3. Cookies.

As noted above, we and our vendors use cookies and similar technologies to collect certain information about you. You may be able to set your internet browser or device to stop accepting new cookies, notify you when you receive a new cookie, or disable existing cookies. Please consult the “Help” section of your browser or your device settings for more information. The setting will apply only to the browser or device you are using, so you will need to reset the setting on a different browser or device. If you disable some or all cookies, the Services may not function as intended and some features may be unavailable.

4.4. Web Analytics.

We and our vendors may use third-party analytics services on the Services to help us understand how users engage with the Services, including Google Analytics. These parties may use cookies and other technologies to help collect, analyze, and provide us with reports and/or data. For more information about Google Analytics and how it collects and processes data, please visit:https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. To opt out of the Google Analytics using your information for analytics purposes, see:https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

4.5. Online Advertising.

We may allow third-party advertising technologies (e.g., ad networks and ad servers, or other advertising partners) to place cookies or other tracking technologies on your browser or device to collect information about you to assist in the delivery of relevant advertising on other websites you visit and other online services you use. These ads may be based on your current activity or your activity over time and across other websites and online services and may be tailored to your interests. For example, if you visit one of our websites, you may see ads for us on other websites you visit. Our Services may also contain ads about third parties or third-party products or services, and cookies and other similar technologies may be used to deliver such ads based on the websites you visit and other online activities.

We neither have access to, nor does this Privacy Policy govern, the cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your browser or device by third parties. For more information about tailored browser advertising and how you can generally control cookies from being put on your computer to deliver tailored advertising, you may visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s Consumer Opt-Out link or the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Opt-Out link to opt out of receiving tailored advertising from companies that participate in those programs. You also may opt-out from Google Analytics for Display Advertising or the Google Display Network by using Google’s Ads Settings. We do not control and make no representations about the appropriateness, functioning, completeness, or availability of these or any other third-party opt-out tools.

5. Children's Privacy.

Our Services are intended for and directed to adults. The Services are not directed to, and we do not knowingly collect or solicit “personal information” (as defined in the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act) from children under the age of 13. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under the age of 13, please contact us using the information in Section 12 of this Privacy Policy.

6. Security.

We have implemented measures intended to protect your information from accidental loss and from unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure. Nevertheless, no website, mobile app, database, system, or electronic transmission of information is guaranteed to be 100% secure. Accordingly, we disclaim liability for the theft, loss, or interception of, or unauthorized access or damage to, your data or communications by using the site, applications, and our Services. By using our Services, you acknowledge that you understand and assume these risks.

7. Retention.

We retain your information for as long as it serves the purposes for which it was collected as described in this Privacy Policy, as subsequently authorized, as necessary or appropriate to provide the Services, and for business continuity purposes. For example, we may keep your account profile data for as long as you keep your account, but we may keep your transaction history longer to comply with legal obligations. We also retain information as required or permitted by applicable law, to resolve disputes, and to enforce our rights and agreements.

8. Third Party Websites.

The Services may contain links to third party websites and apps. We have no control over the privacy practices or the content of any of our business partners, advertisers, sponsors, or other websites to which we provide links. Such third parties treat any information you provide to them in accordance with their own privacy policies, which you should review before providing your information. Linked sites and apps have their own privacy notices or policies, which we strongly encourage you to review. To the extent any linked websites or apps are not owned or controlled by us, we are not responsible for their content, any use of the linked websites or apps, or the privacy practices of the linked websites or apps.

9. Data Transfers.

Incipio is based in the United States. Our Services are operated from within the United States and intended for users located domestically. When we obtain information about you, we may transfer, process, and store such information outside of the country in which you reside in any location where we or our vendors are based, including in the United States. The data protection laws in these countries may be different or less protective than the laws of the country where you reside. By using the Services, you consent to the transfer to and processing and storage of your information in countries outside of your country of residence.

10. California Resident Notice at Collection.

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) requires us to provide you with the following additional information about: (1) the purpose for which we use each category of “personal information” (as defined in the CCPA) we collect; and (2) the categories of third parties to which we (a) disclose such personal information for a business purpose, (b) “share” personal information for “cross-context behavioral advertising,” and/or (c) “sell” such personal information. Under the CCPA, “sharing” is defined as the targeting of advertising to a consumer based on that consumer’s personal information obtained from the consumer’s activity across websites, and “selling” is defined as the disclosure of personal information to third parties in exchange for monetary or other valuable consideration. We “share” information to provide more relevant and tailored advertising to you regarding our Services. While we will never sell your information for money, our use of third-party online advertising and related services may result in the sharing of online identifiers (e.g., cookie data, IP addresses, device identifiers, and usage information) in a way that may be considered a “sale” under the CCPA. The following chart details our practices in this regard. For all categories of third parties to which we disclose personal information for a business purpose, please see the “Disclose Your Information” section of our Privacy Policy above.

Within the last 12 months the Services have collected the following categories of personal information from the sources and for the business or commercial purposes described below:

10.1. Right to Opt Out of Sales and Sharing.

You have the right to opt out of the “sale” and “sharing” of your personal information. To opt out of our use of cookies, pixels and similar technologies for purposes that could be considered “sales” or “sharing” for purposes of tailored advertising, you can disable cookies by following the instructions in the “Cookies” section of this Privacy Policy. To submit a request to opt out of our disclosure of information other than through cookies and similar technologies that are subject to applicable opt out rights, you can email us at team@incipio.law.

Please note that we do not knowingly sell the personal information of minors under 16 years of age without legally required affirmative authorization.

The CCPA also allows you to limit the use or disclosure of your “sensitive personal information” (as defined in the CCPA) if your sensitive personal information is used for certain purposes. As disclosed above, we may collect the following types of sensitive personal information from you: (1) username and password; (2) social security number; and (3) medical history and health-related information. We only use or disclose this information for business purposes for which you cannot opt out under the CCPA.

10.2. California “Shine the Light” Disclosure.

California's “Shine the Light” law (Civil Code Section § 1798.83) permits users of the Services that are California residents to request certain information regarding our disclosure of personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes. We do not currently disclose personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes.

10.3. Do Not Track.

Do Not Track (“DNT”) is a privacy preference that users can set in certain web browsers. We do not currently recognize or respond to browser initiated DNT signals. You can learn more about Do Not Track here. Please note that DNT is a different mechanism than the legally-recognized browser-based privacy preference signal referenced below.

Disclaimer

As a law firm, Incipio must be cautious and precise in how we present ourselves online. This Disclaimer provides disclosures and explanations that may be useful to our clients or required by law.

1. State-Specific Legal Disclosures

We do not specifically target most states. However, since this web site may be visited from anywhere in the United States, out of an abundance of caution we make the following disclosures in accordance with relevant state laws:

Alabama: No representation is made that the quality of the legal services to be performed is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
California: This is lawyer advertising.
Colorado: Colorado does not certify attorneys as specialists in any field.
Florida: The hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not be based solely upon advertisements. Before you decide, ask us to send you free written information about our qualifications and experience.
Iowa: The determination of the need for legal services and the choice of a lawyer are extremely important decisions and should not be based solely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise. This disclosure is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa. NOTICE TO THE PUBLIC: Memberships and offices in legal fraternities and legal societies, technical and professional licenses, and memberships in scientific, technical and professional associations and societies of law or field of practice do not mean that a lawyer is a specialist or expert in a field of law, nor do they mean that such a lawyer is necessarily any more expert or competent than any other lawyer. All potential clients are urged to make their own independent investigation and evaluation of any lawyer being considered. This notice is required by rule of the Supreme Court of Iowa.
Kentucky: THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
Mississippi: The Mississippi Supreme Court advises that a decision on legal services is important and should not be based solely on advertisements.
Missouri: Neither the Supreme Court of Missouri nor the Missouri Bar reviews or approves certifying organizations or specialist designations.
Nevada: The State Bar of Nevada does not certify any lawyer as a specialist or expert.
New Jersey: ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT — NOT A REFERRAL SERVICE. Before making your choice of an attorney, you should give this matter careful thought. The selection of an attorney is an important decision.
New Mexico: LAWYER ADVERTISEMENT.
New York: ATTORNEY ADVERTISING. Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome.
Oregon: THIS IS AN ADVERTISEMENT.
Pennsylvania: ATTORNEY ADVERTISEMENT – NOT A REFERRAL SERVICE. Before making your choice of an attorney, you should give this matter careful thought. The selection of an attorney is an important decision.
Tennessee: None of the attorneys in this firm are certified as a Civil Trial, Criminal Trial, Business Bankruptcy, Consumer Bankruptcy, Creditor’s Rights, Medical Malpractice, Legal Malpractice, Accounting Malpractice, Estate Planning or Elder Law specialist by the Tennessee Commission on Continuing Legal Education and Specialization. Certification as a specialist in all other listed areas is not currently available in Tennessee.
Texas: Unless otherwise stated, our attorneys claiming certification in an area of law are not certified by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.
Wyoming: The Wyoming State Bar does not certify any lawyer as a specialist or expert. Anyone considering a lawyer should independently investigate the lawyer’s credentials and ability, and not rely upon advertisements or self-proclaimed expertise.

We have worked hard to comply with all legal and ethical requirements in creating our services and drafting this Disclaimer. Please contact us immediately if you believe we have fallen short in any way, and we will attempt to remedy any problem as quickly as possible.

To the extent any jurisdiction requires Incipio to designate a principal office or attorney responsible for this website or our services more broadly, Incipio designates its office at 51 Little Fals Drive, Wilmington, New Castle County, Delaware 19808., and attorney Marshall Silver.

2. No Attorney-Client Relationship (Yet)

No attorney-client relationship arises from your use of our services, nor does the use of our services (including submitting information about your situation online or by phone) obligate us to respond to your inquiries or provide you with any form of services or assistance. The only way an attorney-client relationship will arise is through a document you sign. We reserve the right to decline any representation for any reason.

3. No Expectation of Confidentiality or Conflict Preclusion

Incipio works hard to safeguard your confidential information, and in general we believe that it is safe to share details of your case with us. Once you become our client, information that you provide Incipio will be considered confidential and hold special legal status. However, prior to that time — for example, when you contact us initially or fill out an online form — information you provide will not automatically hold that special legal status, and in certain rare circumstances we may be required by law to disclose it. We cannot guarantee confidentiality until and unless we agree to enter into an attorney-client relationship with you.

As we seek to find the right legal help for you, we may share the information you provide with other law firms, attorneys, and organizations in order to get their advice on your situation, to ascertain their willingness to represent you, or for any other reason.

Information you submit — even if it is highly important and you intended it to be kept confidential — will not preclude us (or anyone else) from representing a party directly adverse to you in a matter where that information is relevant.

4. No Legal Advice Online; Information is Provided As-Is

The contents of this website are provided for informational purposes only; nothing you'll find here is legal or medical advice. The only way legal advice will be provided is by a licensed attorney communicating with you individually. We will never provide medical advice.

The information on our website — even if generated in response to user inputs — is no substitute for the advice of an attorney and should not be used as such. Our online tools are designed only to provide rough, high-level information for typical cases; your case may not be typical, and the information we provide may not apply to you. You should not act or refrain from acting on the basis of any information provided here.

Moreover, all information on our website is provided as is. Though we strive to keep all material updated and current, laws change rapidly. Incipio makes no warranties, expressed or implied, and hereby disclaims and negates all other warranties, including — without limitation — implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement of intellectual property or other violation of rights. Further, Incipio does not warrant or make any representations concerning the accuracy, likely results, or reliability of the use of the materials on our website or on any websites we link to. We expressly disclaim all liability arising from actions taken or not taken based upon the contents of this website.

5. Several Relationship Structures are Possible; Incipio is Not a Lawyer Referral Service

Incipio is a law firm. We are not a certified lawyer referral service and our offering bears little resemblance to the offering of such a service. (If you would like a lawyer referral service — which will match you with a lawyer who specializes in a legal area of your choice — you can find one through your state or local bar association.)

Incipio advises clients on the kind of legal help they need, and connects them with attorneys or organizations we recommend to provide that help. We may enter into one of several different relationships with you: (a) We may enter into an attorney-client relationship with you and serve as your sole or primary counsel; (b) We may enter into an attorney-client relationship with you and serve as co-counsel, bearing joint responsibility with one or more other attorneys or firms; (c) We may choose not enter into any kind of attorney-client relationship with you and bear no responsibility for your case. In each situation, we will strive to be clear about the structure of our relationship. We are always happy to clarify the situation or answer your questions.

6. Incipio is Licensed to Practice in Certain States; Laws Elsewhere Vary

Incipio employs lawyers barred in certain states, and our online services are designed for use by clients who need legal assistance with legal matters governed by the laws of those states or by federal law. Any information provided online for state-specific areas of law is targeted only to clients within the state or states listed, and is likely to be incorrect for others.

We may refer prospective clients to other law firms located throughout the country who form relationships with Incipio, or undertake legal representation and affiliate with other legal counsel located throughout the country to provide representation. If that occurs, please be aware that the laws of each state are different and information on this website may not apply to your case.

In particular, laws vary widely between and within states regarding Statutes of Limitations, which set deadlines for individuals to file lawsuits or claims. A typical period is two or three years, but some limitations periods last months or even days. For that reason, it’s critical to consult a lawyer as soon as possible after an accident or injury.

7. Website is Lawyer Advertising; No Implicit Warranties or Representations

This website is lawyer advertising. Hiring a lawyer is an important decision, and you should not base it solely on advertisements. If we provide information on prior results or testimonials regarding the quality of our service, they do not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of your legal matter. We do not represent that the quality of the legal services to be performed by or through Incipio is greater than the quality of legal services performed by other lawyers.
