Welcome to Kyank, operated by Kyank Technologies, Inc. (“Company,” “Kyank,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”), together with our Privacy Policy, constitute a written contract (“Agreement”) between you (“you” or “your”) and Sheytoon governing your use of our website, mobile application, and/or any website or software where these Terms appear or are linked (collectively, the “Service”).
By accessing the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms, whether or not you create an account. If you wish to create an account and make use of the Service, please read these Terms.
You should also read our Privacy Policy. If you do not accept and agree to be bound by all of the terms of this Agreement, including the Privacy Policy, do not use the Service.
PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW THE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROVISIONS BELOW. THESE GOVERN THE MANNER IN WHICH DISPUTES WILL BE ADDRESSED BETWEEN YOU AND SHEYTOON.
We may update these Terms from time to time, so check this page regularly for updates.
ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
These Terms are a contract between you and Sheytoon that establish the legally binding terms you must accept to use the Service. This Agreement includes our Privacy Policy and any other terms disclosed and agreed to by you if you purchase or accept additional features, products or services we offer on the Service, such as terms governing features, billing, free trials, discounts and promotions.
By accessing or using the Service, you accept this Agreement and agree to the terms, conditions and notices contained or referenced herein and consent to have this Agreement and all notices provided to you in electronic form. To withdraw this consent, you must cease using the Service and terminate your account. Please print a copy of this Agreement for your records. To receive a non-electronic copy of this Agreement, please contact us at [email protected].
DISPUTE RESOLUTION
These Terms contain an “Arbitration Agreement” where you waive your right to a jury trial and to bring a class action.
What is arbitration?
Legal disputes are usually resolved in a court of law in front of a judge and, sometimes, a jury. Court cases are a matter of public record. Arbitration is a less formal and more private way of resolving disputes. Instead of going to court, the parties give their arguments and evidence to an arbitrator, and the arbitrator decides who “wins” the case by applying the law in the same way that a judge would. In fact, many arbitrators are retired judges or lawyers. Instead of a courtroom, arbitrations are generally held in a private office, such as a conference room, or by videoconference.
What is our Arbitration Agreement?
Under this Agreement, ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM BETWEEN YOU AND US RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, THESE TERMS, THE PRIVACY POLICY, OR ANY OF THE OTHER TERMS AND POLICIES LISTED IN THESE TERMS MUST BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION. This means that we all agree that we will only resolve our legal disputes through arbitration and not in a court of law. Without this Arbitration Agreement, you would have the right to sue in court with a jury trial.
How will the arbitration work?
The arbitration must be filed and conducted through JAMS (www.jamsadr.org), which is a provider of arbitration services in the United States and internationally. JAMS’ Streamlined Rules will apply to the arbitration. All claims, remedies, and defenses that either you or we have under applicable law (whether federal, state, or local) will remain available to us in the arbitration. Each of us will participate in choosing a neutral arbitrator using the process in the Streamlined Rules. Unless you waive this requirement, the final arbitration hearing (which is like a trial) will take place in person at the JAMS facility closest to your home. The arbitrator’s award will consist of a written statement explaining the arbitrator’s decision on each claim. The award will also include a concise written statement of the findings of fact and conclusions of law on which the award is based. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so.
What law will the arbitrator follow?
The laws of California govern this Agreement. The arbitrator will apply California law to the claims in the arbitration.
Who pays for the arbitration?
In most cases, the only fee you will have to pay to JAMS is $250; we will pay all other arbitration costs. However, if the arbitrator decides that you filed your claim in bad faith and without any legal basis, the arbitrator can require you to pay more (or even all) of the JAMS fees for the arbitration.
The JAMS fees do not include attorneys’ fees. Regardless of who wins the claim, you will be responsible for paying your attorneys’ fees and we will be responsible for paying ours. The only exception is if the claim is brought under a law that specifically allows a party to recover its attorneys’ fees. If this applies, the arbitrator may award attorneys’ fees as they see fit under such law.
Are there any instances where a court will get involved?
Yes. There are things an arbitrator cannot do, like order a party to act or stop doing something—this is known as “equitable relief.” Either one of us can go to court and seek equitable relief, including by filing a motion to compel the other party to honor the arbitration agreement. However, you and we agree that the only courts where we will seek equitable relief—or file any legal proceeding outside of arbitration—are the state and federal courts in Los Angeles, California. This exception for equitable relief does not waive our Arbitration Agreement.
Can I file a class action?
No. You and we agree that we will only file claims against each other individually and not as a plaintiff or class member in a representative proceeding. THIS MEANS CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT ALLOWED.
ELIGIBILITY
No part of the Service is directed to persons under the age of 18. You must be at least 18 years of age to access and use the Service. Any use of the Service is void where prohibited. By accessing and using the Service, you represent and warrant that:

MEETING IN PERSON
First meetings are exciting, but always take precautions and follow these guidelines to help you stay safe:
- GET TO KNOW THE OTHER PERSON BEFORE MEETING THEM OFFLINE
- Get to know someone through chat before disclosing personal information or meeting in person. We don’t conduct criminal background checks on our users, so it’s up to you to do your own research and remain cautious.
- ALWAYS MEET IN PUBLIC
- Meet for the first time in a populated, public place – never in a private or remote location, and never at your home or apartment.
- INFORM A FRIEND OR FAMILY MEMBER OF YOUR PLANS
- Tell them who you are meeting, where you are going and when you will return. Bring your phone with you.
- DRIVE YOURSELF TO AND FROM THE FIRST MEETING
- Be in control of your own ride – even if you take a taxi. Securing your own ride is important. Even if the person you’re meeting volunteers to pick you up, do not get into a vehicle with someone you don’t know and trust, especially if it’s the first meeting.
Following these guidelines will help keep the Service safe and enjoyable.
