All other reservations are or may be subject to the Reservation Fee indicated on the Website or App. In consideration of your payment to EZ Cruise Parking of the Reservation Fee in the amount indicated on the Website or App or your completion of a reservation in connection with your participation in the Loyalty Program, EZ Cruise Parking agrees to make available to you one (1) vehicle parking space at the Facility, or, if you valet park your vehicle, one (1) vehicle parking space selected by EZ Cruise Parking at the Facility or at an off-site location (“Storage Location”) to which your vehicle may be moved for storage and from which your vehicle will be moved back to the Facility upon or before your return to the Facility (as applicable, a “Vehicle Parking Space”) commencing at the Check-In Date/Time designated on the Website or App when making such reservation (the “Designated Check-In Time”) on the terms and conditions provided herein (where applicable), but only if you arrive at the Facility at the Designated Check-In Time. We do not guarantee that a particular parking space, product type or service level will be available. You acknowledge that the Reservation Fee constitutes consideration for the right to make such reservation only, and shall not be credited toward the fee which is payable for the use of a Vehicle Parking Space, or any other applicable fees or charges associated with the parking of a vehicle in a Vehicle Parking Space.

(b) Payment of Reservation Fee. As full and complete payment of the Reservation Fee, you hereby authorize and direct EZ Cruise Parking to process a charge in the amount of the Reservation Fee to the credit card in your name which you designated on the Website or App when making the associated reservation, and you hereby represent to EZ Cruise Parking that you are authorized to use such credit card for such purpose. The Reservation Cancellation Fee is non-refundable except in accordance with the cancellation policy set forth in Paragraph 5(c) below or the issuance of a Guarantee Policy Pass, as set forth in Paragraph 5(f) below.

(c) Cancellation Policy. A $25 Reservation Cancellation Fee will be deducted from cancelled reservation in the form of a credit issued to the credit card that was used to make the reservation. No refunds will be issued within 48 hours of the cruise departure time. All “no-show” reservations are ineligible for refunds. You may cancel your parking reservation by simply sending an email with the following information to: manager@ezcruiseparking.com assuming this was completed within the allotted time frame. You must include the full name on the reservation along with the reservation number in the e-mail to manager@ezcruiseparling.com. It may be possible to reschedule your reservation without incurring the Reservation Cancellation Fee if it is completed greater than 48 hours prior to the original cruise departure time.

(d) Grant of License. Upon your arrival and check-in at the Facility at the Designated Check-In Time, you shall be deemed to have been granted a license to self-park and lock one (1) vehicle in the applicable designated area of the Facility, or, if you valet park your vehicle, in the location selected by EZ Cruise Parking at the Facility or at a Storage Location, or if your vehicle has to be moved to a Storage Location as a result of a Natural Disaster, high water, and/or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control and held for a reasonable amount of time, to which your vehicle may be moved for storage and from which your vehicle will be moved back to the Facility upon, before, (or shortly after your return if moved as a result of a Natural Disaster, high water, or unforeseen circumstances) your return to the Facility, at your sole risk and at posted rates for a period, not to exceed thirty (30) days, commencing upon your arrival at the Facility (the “Actual Check-In Time”). Only a license is granted hereby, and to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, you acknowledge and agree that (i) no lease, bailment or bailee custody is intended or shall be created, (ii) EZ Cruise Parking does not become an insurer, (iii) EZ Cruise Parking does not guard or assume care, custody or control of your vehicle or its contents, (iv) EZ Cruise Parking shall not be liable for (A) fire, theft, loss or damage to the vehicle, (B) mechanical malfunction, (C) fire, theft, loss or damage to any personal property or article left in the vehicle, (D) damage or loss caused by criminal acts by third parties, (E) incidental or consequential damages, (F) damage or loss caused by environmental factors and/or (v) you assume full responsibility for any personal injuries that may occur while the vehicle is parked at the Facility or Storage Location. You further acknowledge and agree that if your vehicle is left at the Facility or Storage Location for more than thirty (30) days after the Actual Check-In Time (or longer than thirty (30) days as the Facility Manager may authorize), then such vehicle and its contents may be impounded at your expense and sold for expenses and storage fees. No representative of EZ Cruise Parking may modify or waive any of the terms of these Terms (other than Facility Manager’s limited right to permit vehicles to remain over thirty (30) days).

(e) Payment of Parking Fees. You agree that, in consideration of the license granted in Paragraph 5(d) above, you shall pay EZ Cruise Parking a parking fee calculated by reference to the parking rates posted at the Facility, on the Website, and/or at the Actual Check-In Time.

(f) Lack of Parking Space. In the unlikely event that you arrive at the Facility at the Designated Check-In Time and no Vehicle Parking Space is then available for your use and you paid a Reservation Fee when making the associated reservation, the Reservation Fee will be refunded to you by the issuance of a credit to the credit card which you used to make the associated reservation, subject only to the condition that you shall have delivered to EZ Cruise Parking, within one hundred eighty (180) days following the Designated Check-In Time, a written request therefor together with reasonable evidence of such reservation and such unavailability, as determined in our sole discretion.

Our Designated Agent may be reached at:
Designated Agent
527 21ST ST, #162
Galveston, TX 77550
Phone: 281-409-8373
Email: Charles@ezcruiseparking.com

If you are a copyright owner (or authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner) and have a good faith belief that your work’s copyright is being infringed, you should submit a written notification to EZ Cruise Parking’s Designated Agent that includes: (a) your contact information, including your name, address, telephone number, and email address; (b) identification and description of each copyrighted work that you claim has been infringed; (c) the exact URL or location of the material that you claim is infringing; (d) a statement by you that you have a good faith belief that the disputed use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; (e) an electronic or physical signature of the person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the copyright interest; and (f) a statement by you, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owners. Upon receipt of a bona fide infringement notification by the Designated Agent, it is our policy to remove or disable access to the infringing material, notify the user that it has removed or disabled access to the material and, for repeat offenders, to terminate such user’s access to the Website and/or App.

Please note that Section 512(f) of the DMCA may impose liability for damages of any person who knowingly sends meritless notices of infringement. Please do not make false claims.

Any information or correspondence that you provide to us may be shared with third parties, including the person who provided us with the allegedly infringing material.

If you believe that your content should not have been removed for alleged copyright infringement, you may send our Designated Agent a written counter-notice with the following information: (a) identification of the copyrighted work that was removed, and the location on the Website or App where it would have been found prior to its removal; (b) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you have a good faith belief that the content was removed as a result of a mistake or misidentification; and (c) your physical or electronic signature, together with your contact information (address, telephone number and, if available, email address).

If a counter-notice is received by the Designated Agent, we may send a copy of the counter-notice to the original complaining party informing that person that we may replace the removed material or cease disabling it in 10 business days. Unless the copyright owner files an action seeking a court order against the user, the removed material may be replaced or access to it restored in 10 to 14 business days or more after receipt of the counter-notice, at our discretion.

We and you (each a “party” and together, the “parties”) shall use best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

(b) Agreement to Binding Arbitration. If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Paragraph 18(a) above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration. All claims arising out of or relating to this agreement (including its formation, performance and breach), the parties’ relationship with each other and/or your use of the Website, App or Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association on a confidential basis in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the supplementary procedures for consumer related disputes of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this agreement, including but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The interpretation and enforcement of this agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

(c) THE AAA’S RULES GOVERNING THE ARBITRATION MAY BE ACCESSED AT WWW.ADR.ORG OR BY CALLING THE AAA AT 1.800.778.7879. TO THE EXTENT THE FILING FEE FOR THE ARBITRATION EXCEEDS THE COST OF FILING A LAWSUIT, WE WILL PAY THE ADDITIONAL COST. A REQUEST FOR PAYMENT OF FEES SHOULD BE SUBMITTED TO AAA ALONG WITH YOUR FORM FOR INITIATING THE ARBITRATION, AND WE WILL MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO PAY ALL NECESSARY FEES DIRECTLY TO THE AAA. IF THE ARBITRATOR FINDS THE ARBITRATION TO BE NON-FRIVOLOUS, WE WILL PAY ALL OF THE ACTUAL FILING AND ARBITRATOR FEES FOR THE ARBITRATION, PROVIDED YOUR CLAIM DOES NOT EXCEED $75,000. THE ARBITRATION RULES ALSO PERMIT YOU TO RECOVER ATTORNEYS’ FEES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.

(d) THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT, IN SOME INSTANCES, THE COSTS OF ARBITRATION COULD EXCEED THE COSTS OF LITIGATION AND THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.

(e) Class Action and Class Arbitration Waiver. The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above in Paragraph 18(b) shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

(f) Exceptions – Intellectual Property Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief under law or in equity (including without limitation preliminary or other injunctive relief) in any court of competent jurisdiction for disputes or claims arising out of the alleged infringement of either party’s intellectual property rights.

(g) Exceptions – Small Claims Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

(h) 30 Day Opt Out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in Paragraphs 18(b), 18(c), 18(d) and 18(e) by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to the following address: EZ Cruise Parking, 527 21ST ST, #162, Galveston, TX 77550, Attention: Legal Department.

If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them.
(i) Exclusive Venue for Litigation; JURY TRIAL WAIVER. To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Paragraph 18(b) do not apply, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in State of Texas, Galveston County (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside, provided that we are subject to jurisdiction there). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in the State of Texas, Galveston County for any litigation other than small claims court actions. The parties also expressly agree that, to the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth in Paragraph 18(b) do not apply, these Terms shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas without regard to its conflict of laws rules that would result in the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of Texas, except with respect to the Cruise Parking Valet Terms which may be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the state in which the Facility identified on the Cruise Parking Valet confirmation is located. You further agree to accept service of process by mail, and hereby waive any and all jurisdictional and venue defenses otherwise available. THE PARTIES ALSO EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT, TO THE EXTENT THAT THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPH 18(b) ABOVE DO NOT APPLY, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

(j) Modifications. Any modification to Paragraph 18 shall not apply to any disputes of which we are aware or reasonably should be aware at the time of such modification, and will only apply to all disputes arising after such modification, regardless of whether such disputes arise from events or omissions that occurred before such modification.
