EAN Services, LLC (Enterprise or We) provides this Website or Mobile App (“Site”) for your use, subject to these Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms of Use”) and all applicable laws and regulations. Please read these Terms of Use carefully. By accessing and/or using the Site, you fully and unconditionally accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, including binding arbitration. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, please do not visit or use the Site. Enterprise reserves the right to revise these Terms of Use, so please check back periodically for changes. Your continued use of the Site following the posting of any changes to these Terms of Use constitutes your acceptance of those changes. All changes are effective immediately when We post them, and apply to use of the Site thereafter.
USE OF THE SITE
Enterprise maintains the Site for your informational and non-commercial personal use. Your use of the Site for any other purpose is permissible only upon the express prior written consent of Enterprise. Without limiting the foregoing, you may not: (1) use the Site in a commercial manner, including by distributing, transmitting or publishing the Site or any of its content; (2) interfere with others’ use of the Site; (3) impair the Site’s operation or interfere with or disrupt the servers or networks connected to it; (4) interfere with Enterprise’s intellectual property rights; (5) frame or otherwise co-brand the Site or any of its content; (6) deep-link to any portion of the Site; or (7) use the Site for any illegal purpose. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to terminate or restrict your use of the Site, without notice, for any or no reason, and without liability to you or any third party. In such event, We may inform your Internet service provider of your activities and take appropriate legal action.
SITE MODIFICATIONS
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify, suspend or discontinue any part of the Site at any time, without notice or liability to you or any third party. We also reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to impose limits on certain features and services.
LINKS TO OTHER WEBSITES OR MOBILE APPS
The Site may include links to third-party websites or mobile apps. Enterprise does not control and is not responsible for the content, terms of use, or privacy policies of any linked website or mobile app, and your use of such third-party websites and mobile apps is governed by their respective terms of use and privacy policies, as applicable. The inclusion of any link on the Site does not imply our endorsement of it.
RESERVATIONS AND TRANSACTIONS
All reservations and transactions made through the Site are subject to Enterprise’s acceptance, which is in our sole discretion. Without limitation, this means that Enterprise may refuse to accept or may cancel any reservation or transaction, whether or not the reservation or transaction has been confirmed, for any or no reason, in our sole discretion, and without liability to you or any third party. The rental contract that governs your rental (“Rental Contract”) is entered into separately between Enterprise's affiliate that operates the rental location (“Owner”) and you; except as specifically provided in Check-In below, it is not entered into through this Site. All rentals remain subject and subordinate to availability and any applicable qualifications and rental conditions. In addition, all reservation requests are non-binding for you and Owner. Owner does not have any duty or obligation to keep any reserved vehicles available.
COUPONS
Enterprise provides specific discount coupons from time to time for the exclusive use of employees or members of specific entities with which Enterprise has a contractual relationship. These entity-specific coupons and the proprietary codes affixed on them are our proprietary property and may only be used by the employees or members of the specific entities for which the coupons apply. UNAUTHORIZED USE OR DUPLICATION OF ANY OF OUR ENTITY-SPECIFIC DISCOUNT COUPONS IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED.
CHECK-IN

You may also be asked to electronically agree to the Rental Contract. For purposes of clarification, references to the “Rental Agreement Summary” or “Summary” in the Rental Contract shall also include information provided by you as well as information presented to you during check-in. Changes to your rental details at the time of pick-up may require you to enter into a new Rental Contract at that time. Subject to our Global Privacy Policy described below, we will use third parties (including, but not limited to, LexisNexis for purposes of fraud prevention) or in some cases you will submit the information directly to such third parties for the purpose of facilitating the transaction. You expressly acknowledge and agree that any changes to your reservation, including, but not limited to, upgrades, protections, and extras, as well as changes to pick up or drop off dates, times, or locations, may result in increased charges and fees associated with your reservation. If you do not complete check-in via the Site, you must check-in upon arrival at the rental location.
PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION
Prior to finalizing the check-in process, your estimated charges will be displayed for your confirmation. By electronically agreeing to the Rental Contract, you authorize Owner to charge your credit card and/or debit card all amounts owed under the Rental Contract for advance deposits, incremental authorizations / deposits, and any other amounts owed by you, as well as payments refused by a third party to whom billing was directed, all pursuant to the terms of the Rental Contract. You also authorize Owner to re-initiate any charge to your credit card that is dishonored for any reason.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION - MANDATORY ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
YOU AND ENTERPRISE EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION PURSUANT TO THE FOLLOWING TERMS. YOU AND ENTERPRISE AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, CONTROVERSIES OR DISPUTES OF ANY KIND (“CLAIMS”) AGAINST EACH OTHER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THESE TERMS OF USE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, CLAIMS RELATING TO ENTERPRISE’S PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, CHARGES, ADVERTISINGS, OR RENTAL VEHICLES. FOR THE PURPOSES OF THIS DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISION, “YOU” ALSO INCLUDES ANY OF YOUR AGENTS, BENEFICIARIES, ASSIGNS, OR ANYONE ACTING ON BEHALF OF THE FOREGOING, AND “ENTERPRISE” ALSO INCLUDES ANY OF ITS EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, AFFILIATES, PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, BENEFICIARIES, ASSIGNS, AND VENDORS, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO ITS SERVICE PROVIDERS AND MARKETING PARTNERS. YOU AND ENTERPRISE AGREE THAT NO CLAIMS WILL BE PURSUED OR RESOLVED AS A PART OF A CLASS ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING, THAT NO ARBITRATION FORUM WILL HAVE JURISDICTION TO DECIDE ANY CLAIMS ON A CLASS-WIDE, COLLECTIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS, AND THAT NO RULES OR OTHER PROCEDURES FOR CLASS-WIDE OR COLLECTIVE ARBITRATION WILL APPLY. This Dispute Resolution Provision is to be broadly interpreted and applies to all Claims based in contract, tort, statute, or any other legal theory, and all Claims that arose prior to or after termination of these Terms of Use. However, the parties agree that either party may bring an individual action in a small claims court with valid jurisdiction, provided that the action remains in that court (other than any appeal of the small claims court ruling), is made on behalf of or against you only and is not made part of a class action, private attorney general action or other representative or collective action. The parties also agree that claims against or by a third-party insurance company ostensibly providing coverage to you or any AAD or the application of Enterprise’s financial responsibility relating to the use or operation of an Enterprise rental vehicle may be brought in a court with valid jurisdiction.
PROCEDURE
A party must send a written Notice of Dispute (“Notice”) describing (a) the nature and basis of the Claim; and (b) the relief sought, to the other party. The Notice to Enterprise should be addressed to: CT Corporation, 208 S LaSalle, Suite 814, Chicago, IL 60604 (“Notice Address”). If you and Enterprise do not resolve the Claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, a party may commence an arbitration by filing a demand for arbitration with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) pursuant to its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Claims will be resolved pursuant to the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of the demand, as modified by these Terms of Use. However, a single arbitrator will be selected according to AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or Enterprise that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. The AAA rules are available online at www.adr.org. Except as required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any dispute or arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties.
ARBITRATOR’S AUTHORITY
The arbitrator is bound by these Terms of Use, this Dispute Resolution Provision, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) and AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator has no authority to join or consolidate Claims, or adjudicate joined and consolidated Claims. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the scope, interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms of Use, including whether it is void. The parties agree that the arbitrator’s decision and award will be final and binding and may be confirmed or challenged in any court with jurisdiction as permitted under the FAA. The arbitrator can award the same damages and relief as a court, but only in favor of an individual party and for a party’s individual claim.
ARBITRATION COSTS
You will be responsible for your share of any arbitration fees (e.g., filing, administrative, etc.), but only up to the amount of filing fees you would incur if the Claims were filed in court. Enterprise will be responsible for all additional arbitration fees. You are responsible for all other costs/fees that you incur in arbitration, e.g., fees for attorneys, expert witnesses, etc. You will not be required to reimburse Enterprise for any fees unless the arbitrator finds that the substance of your Claim(s) or the relief sought is frivolous. If the arbitrator makes such a finding, AAA Rules will govern the payment of all fees, and Enterprise may seek reasonable attorney’s fees. Enterprise will pay all fees and costs it is required by law to pay.
GOVERNING LAW AND ENFORCEMENT
Notwithstanding anything in these Terms of Use, this Dispute Resolution Provision is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the FAA, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16. This Dispute Resolution Provision was drafted in compliance with the laws in all states, however, if any portion of it is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable or is found not to apply to a Claim, the remainder of the Dispute Resolution Provision remains in full force and effect.
APPLICABLE LAW
These Terms of Use are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Missouri, United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything in the Rental Contract, the Rental Contract shall be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which you pick up the car. In the event of a conflict between the governing law provisions of these Terms of Use and the Rental Contract, the provision of these Terms of Use shall control.
Any action to enforce these Terms of Use regarding a Claim not subject to binding arbitration must be brought in the federal court in the Eastern District of Missouri or the state courts located in St. Louis County, Missouri. By using the Site, you consent to the jurisdiction and venue of these courts. Any claim or cause of action you may have with respect to the Site must be commenced within one (1) year after the claim or cause of action arises, regardless of any law to the contrary. This limitation does not apply to residents of New Jersey.
GENERAL
If any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision must be construed consistent with applicable law, and the remaining provisions must be enforced. Headings are for reference purposes only and in no way define, limit, construe or describe the scope of such section. Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of that or any other provision.
These Terms of Use set forth the entire agreement between you and Enterprise in connection with your use of the Site.
