15.3. CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
YOU AND SOMATICS, INCORPORATED EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR CONSOLIDATED PROCEEDING. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING.
15.4. Mass Arbitration Batching Defense
To ensure administrative efficiency and neutralize bad-faith mass arbitration filings, if twenty-five (25) or more similar arbitration demands are filed against Somatics, Incorporated by or with the assistance of the same law firm or coordinated legal network within a 90-day period, the AAA shall administer the arbitration demands in sequential batches of no more than fifty (50) demands per batch. Only one batch shall be arbitrated at a time, and arbitrator fees for subsequent batches shall not be assessed until the preceding batch is fully resolved. You agree that this batching protocol is essential to preserving access to affordable dispute resolution.

21. ENTIRE AGREEMENT
This Agreement constitutes the final, complete, and exclusive agreement between you and Somatics, Incorporated regarding your use of Somatics Fitness & Nutrition, superseding all prior oral or written agreements, understandings, representations, or marketing communications regarding the subject matter herein.
22. SMS MESSAGING (VERIFICATION CODES)
22.1. Program Description
Somatics, Incorporated operates a single text message program in connection with Somatics Fitness & Nutrition. That program sends one-time verification codes, also called sign-in codes, to the mobile telephone number associated with your account. The codes are used to create your account, to confirm that you control the number you have given, and to authenticate you when you sign in.
These are transactional service messages, sent only in response to an action you take. THIS PROGRAM DOES NOT SEND MARKETING, PROMOTIONAL, OR ADVERTISING MESSAGES OF ANY KIND. Messages are delivered on our behalf by our messaging provider. We do not share your mobile telephone number with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
22.2. Consent to Receive Messages
You supply your mobile telephone number, and request a verification code, by your own affirmative action within the App. No consent to receive text messages is pre-selected, pre-checked, bundled with another agreement, or given on your behalf. By entering your mobile telephone number and requesting a code, you consent to receive automated one-time verification codes sent by or on behalf of Somatics, Incorporated at that number.
You represent and warrant that you are the subscriber to, or the customary and authorized user of, the mobile telephone number you provide, and that you are at least eighteen (18) years of age as required by Section 3. You agree to notify us promptly, using the details in Section 25, if you cease to control that number, so that codes are not delivered to a person to whom it is later reassigned.
Consent to receive verification codes is not a condition of any purchase. It is a condition of using the sign-in-by-code method, because the code is the means by which that method authenticates you. Alternative ways to sign in are described in Section 22.5.
22.3. Message Frequency
Messages are sent only in response to an action you take. You will ordinarily receive one message for each account creation, sign-in, or verification attempt that you initiate. Message frequency therefore varies, and depends entirely on how often you choose to sign in. This program sends no recurring, scheduled, or unsolicited messages.
22.4. Message and Data Rates
MESSAGE AND DATA RATES MAY APPLY. Somatics, Incorporated does not charge you for verification code messages. Any charge for sending or receiving a text message is set by your mobile carrier under the terms of your own plan, and is a matter between you and that carrier. Consult your plan for details.
22.5. Opting Out (STOP)
You may stop verification code messages at any time by replying STOP to any message received from this program. You will receive a single message confirming that you have been unsubscribed, after which no further messages will be sent to that number.
YOU SHOULD UNDERSTAND WHAT OPTING OUT DOES BEFORE YOU DO IT. The verification code is the means by which the sign-in-by-code method confirms your identity. If you opt out, that method will stop working for you, and you must sign in by one of the alternatives the App provides, being your password or a one-time link sent to a verified email address on your account. IF YOUR ACCOUNT HAS NEITHER A PASSWORD NOR A VERIFIED EMAIL ADDRESS, OPTING OUT MAY LEAVE YOU UNABLE TO SIGN IN.
You may resume verification code messages at any time by replying START to the number from which the messages were sent. Requesting a new code inside the App will not by itself reverse a STOP, because the instruction is held by the carrier and by our messaging provider rather than by the App.
22.6. Getting Help (HELP)
You may reply HELP to any message received from this program to receive help information. You may also contact us at any time at somaticsfn@gmail.com, or at the address given in Section 25.
22.7. Supported Carriers
This program is available on major mobile carriers in the United States. Carrier participation may change without notice. The program is not offered outside the United States, consistent with the geographic restriction in Section 17.
WIRELESS CARRIERS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR DELAYED OR UNDELIVERED MESSAGES. Delivery of any message depends on effective transmission by your carrier and by our messaging provider, and is outside the control of Somatics, Incorporated. YOU MUST NOT RELY ON THE TIMELY ARRIVAL OF A VERIFICATION CODE IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE WHERE DELAY WOULD CAUSE YOU HARM.
23. GOVERNING LAW
This Agreement, and any dispute arising out of or relating to it or to your use of the App, is governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. The home jurisdiction of Somatics, Incorporated, for the purposes of Section 15.2, is the State of North Carolina. Where any claim is not subject to arbitration under Section 15, you and Somatics, Incorporated submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in North Carolina.
24. PRIVACY
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which covers the App, and our Website Privacy Policy, which covers our website. Both are incorporated into this Agreement by reference. We reserve the right to revise those policies at any time as set out in each of them.
25. CONTACT
Somatics, Incorporated, 3925 Newhall Drive NW, Hickory, North Carolina 28601, United States. For any question about this Agreement, and for the Notice of Dispute required by Section 15.1, contact us at somaticsfn@gmail.com.
26. REFERRAL PROGRAM
26.1. Program Description
Somatics, Incorporated may operate a referral program under which a person who holds an account invites another person to create one, and receives credits toward the artificial intelligence builder tools within the App when that person does so. The credits awarded, the conditions a referral must satisfy to qualify, and the number of referrals that may be rewarded are those stated in the App at the time of the referral. They are not fixed by this Agreement and may change.
26.2. Eligibility
To participate you must hold an account in good standing, and must satisfy the age requirement in Section 3 and the geographic restriction in Section 17. You may not refer yourself. A person you refer must be a new user who has not previously held an account with us.
26.3. One Referral Per Telephone Number
A MOBILE TELEPHONE NUMBER MAY BE REFERRED ONCE AND ONCE ONLY. This limit is permanent. It is not reset by deleting an account, by creating a new account, or by deleting and reinstalling the App.
To enforce this limit we retain a one-way hash of each referred telephone number, and we retain it after the associated account is deleted. We do not derive, collect, or store any device identifier for this or for any other purpose. Section 14 of our Privacy Policy describes this retention.
26.4. Prohibited Conduct
You must not, in connection with the referral program:
- create or control more than one account, whether to refer yourself or to claim a reward;
- use a mobile telephone number that you are not entitled to use, or that belongs to a person who has not agreed to be referred;
- use a temporary, disposable, or virtual numbering service to obtain telephone numbers;
- distribute a referral link or code by unsolicited bulk message, by paid search on our name or marks, or in any manner that would constitute spam;
- misrepresent your relationship with Somatics, Incorporated, or offer any inducement of your own in our name;
- use any automated means to generate accounts, referrals, or rewards.
26.5. Forfeiture and Clawback
WE MAY WITHHOLD, REVERSE, OR CANCEL ANY CREDIT, AND MAY SUSPEND OR TERMINATE ANY ACCOUNT, where we determine that a referral was not genuine, that this Section 26 has been breached, or that the program has otherwise been abused. We may do so after a credit has been awarded and after it has been spent. Where a credit has already been spent, we may reduce a future allowance by the corresponding amount. A determination under this Section is made in our sole and absolute discretion.
26.6. No Cash Value
Credits are a limited, revocable license to use a feature of the App. THEY ARE NOT PROPERTY, HAVE NO CASH VALUE, AND ARE NOT REDEEMABLE FOR MONEY. They may not be sold, transferred, assigned, gifted, exchanged, or combined across accounts, and they are forfeited when an account is terminated or deleted. Credits are not a refund, and nothing in this Section limits Section 11.
26.7. Changes and Termination of the Program
We may change, suspend, or end the referral program at any time, in our sole and absolute discretion, with or without notice. Ending the program does not entitle you to compensation for credits you have not earned, and does not oblige us to honor a referral that had not qualified before the program ended.
26.8. Taxes
Any tax arising from a reward you receive is your sole responsibility.
