PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF SERVICE CAREFULLY. BY ACCESSING THE ELECTIVE WEBSITE OR USING THE ELECTIVE SERVICE, YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE (1) ELECTIVE TERMS OF SERVICE, (2) ELECTIVE E-SIGN CONSENT AGREEMENT, AND (3) ELECTIVE PRIVACY POLICY AND PRIVACY NOTICE. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THESE TERMS, PLEASE DO NOT ACCESS THE ELECTIVE WEBSITE OR USE THE ELECTIVE SERVICE. THE HEADINGS CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE FOR REFERENCE PURPOSES ONLY. YOU SHOULD PRINT A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR YOUR RECORDS.

1. What are you agreeing to? 

The parties to this Agreement. These Terms of Service describe a contractual relationship ("Agreement") between you (including a business or non-natural person entity, as applicable) ("you" or "your") and Gnosis Labs Inc. (including its subsidiaries, affiliates, including Elective Group USA Inc., agents, and assigns) ("Elective," "we," "us,""our") regarding (1) your use of this website ("Website") or any mobile application offered by or marketed by or on behalf of Elective or any other technology platform offered by Elective, (each an "Elective App"), (2) your use of the Website, an Elective App, or a third-party website in connection with a product or service offered directly by Elective, as applicable, (3) your use of any other service(s) offered through the Website or an Elective App, as applicable; and (4) your access to your Elective account information and access to any service through the Website or an Elective App (collectively, the "Elective Service(s)" or "Service(s)").

Changes to this Agreement. Elective may unilaterally decide to change this Agreement from time to time, provided, however, that such changes will not impose additional obligations on you with respect to actions you took before the change became effective unless you specifically agree to such changes (for example, by confirming a loan). Additionally, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT ANY CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT BY USING THE ELECTIVE SERVICES AFTER CHANGES HAVE BEEN POSTED. If Elective makes any changes to this Agreement that it deems to be material, Elective will make a reasonable effort to inform you of such changes, but it is your responsibility to review the Agreement posted to our website from time to time to see if it has been changed.

Your Eligibility. To be eligible to use the Services, you must be at least the age of majority in the province, territory, or state where you reside. You represent and warrant that you are eligible to use the Services.

2. How Elective will serve you.

Buy with Elective: When you buy with Elective you may be offered a closed-end installment loan product with terms as expressed in your Loan Agreement. Loans are offered by Elective directly through Elective's technology platform or through a third-party website. Loan term options may vary based on purchase price and merchant and may not be available in all provinces, territories, or states. Elective's services allow you to buy goods or services offered by merchants ("Merchants") for a personal or limited business purpose use, where available. If you buy with Elective, Elective (the "Lender"), depending on the product, will pay the Merchant in exchange for your promise to repay the same amount plus a finance charge, where applicable.

Your Promise to Pay: Before completing any transaction through any Elective Services, Elective will secure your promise to pay by disclosing the terms and conditions applicable to that transaction and securing your affirmative consent to those terms for that transaction, including your promise to pay the the Amount Financed and any and all other amounts that may become due under the Loan Agreement until all amounts owing have been repaid in full to Lender or its assigns.

Interest Rates: Rates range from 0% to 36% fixed Annual Percentage Rate("APR"), depending on your creditworthiness and/or the type of product offered (0% APR may only be offered at select merchants). Loans are simple interest loans, which means that interest, if any, accrues daily on the unpaid principal balance, up to the amount of the finance charge, until you pay the loan in full.

Finance Charge: Loans may be subject to a finance charge based on the applicable interest rate. The Lender will always disclose the specific finance charge before you agree to any loan.

Late Payment Fee: You are not charged any late fees when you buy with Elective.

Elective-Originated Loans. Loans may be offered directly by Elective. Refer to your Loan Agreement for details.

Autofill of Information: In order for you to have a more seamless shopping experience while using your payment instrument with another financial institution, we will store some of the information that you provide to us, or that you authorize a third party to provide to us, or that a third party provides to us about you, and use that information to autofill different forms for you during your shopping journey. While using the Services, we may ask for your personal information and contact details such as name, shipping address, telephone number, email, VCN card details, debit/credit card details (excluding CVV), and billing address for those cards, or you may authorize our service providers to provide us with information about you, such as details about your financial accounts, transactions, and credit history. We will keep this information in our systems so that when you return to us, you will only need to provide basic details in order for us to automatically fill in the remaining fields to complete your transaction. When you shop with a merchant directly from an Elective App, we can autofill your details on the merchant's site. This is enabled when you log in to an Elective App so that we know it is you that is shopping with that merchant.

Collecting Information About You. By using the Elective Services, you authorize Elective, directly or through third parties, to make any inquiries we consider necessary to validate your identity and to collect information about you in accordance with the Customer Identification Program (CIP) rules implementing Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act and our Privacy Policy. This may include validating information regarding your business or non-natural person entity, if applicable. This may also include asking you for further information that will allow us to reasonably identify you, requiring you to take steps to confirm ownership of your email address or financial instruments, or verifying your information against third party databases or through other sources. We may also ask you for identifying documents to help us validate your identity. Elective reserves the right to close, suspend, or limit access to your account and/or the Services in the event we are unable to obtain or verify this information.

Credit Report Authorization and Reporting. You expressly authorize Gnosis Labs Inc., Elective Group USA Inc., and their assigns to obtain information from third-party sources, including consumer reports on you from consumer reporting agencies: (1) in connection with your pre-qualification request, inquiry, or request for an extension of credit; (2) to enable Gnosis Labs Inc. and Elective Group USA Inc. to verify your identity; (3) to service, maintain, and collect your extension of credit; (4) for marketing purposes including pre-qualifications and other forms of marketing, that may be provided by us and any other service we offer, such as financial management tools, for so long as Gnosis Labs Inc., Elective Group USA Inc., and their assigns have an interest in your extension of credit or its servicing; and (5) for our own internal use, including statistical analyses and to develop, improve, analyze, study, and maintain products and services we may offer through Gnosis Labs Inc., Elective Group USA Inc., and their assigns, for so long as we have an interest in your extension of credit or its servicing.

You understand that Elective may report information about your (such as on-time, late, and missed payments; any defaults; and the fact you paid off your loan) to consumer reporting agencies, and that such information may be reflected in your credit report or other consumer reports about you.

Servicing & Collection. You agree to allow Elective to send you payment reminders from time to time. Notwithstanding whether you have consented or withdrawn your consent to the Elective E-Sign Consent, you agree that payment reminders may take the form of any available communication, subject to applicable law. You also agree that if you fail to pay an amount owed to Elective pursuant to this Agreement or any other agreement you have with us, Elective may engage in collection efforts to recover such amounts from you. These collection efforts may involve contacting you directly, submitting your information to a collections agency, or taking legal action. FAILURE TO PAY MAY AFFECT YOUR CREDIT SCORE.

Communication & Notification. You agree that Elective may provide you communications about your account and any Elective Service electronically or through phone calls or in writing to any contact information we have on file for you. Standard mobile, message, or data rates may apply and you are responsible for any such fees. Elective reserves the right to close or limit access to your account or a Service and immediately collect all due amounts if you withdraw your consent to receive electronic or other communications or if you revoke access to any third-party site on which the Elective Service relies or if any such service should revoke or cancel your account on that site. Any electronic communications will be considered to be received by you at the time we email it to you or otherwise send it to your attention (such as via SMS or other online or mobile notification). We may assume you have received any communications sent to you by postal mail 3 business days after we send it. If we need to contact you to service your account or to collect amounts you owe to us, you give direct consent to us, as well as servicers, agents, contractors, and collectors of your account, to communicate with you in any way, such as calling, texting, or email via:

  • a mobile phone or landline you provide to us, use to contact us, or at which we believe we can reach you (even if it is not yours),
  • any email address you provide to us, one of our service providers, or one of our Merchants,
  • automated dialer systems and automatic telephone dialing systems,

5. How Elective resolves disputes.

Disputes with Elective. If a dispute arises between you and Elective, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. In the event of a dispute, we encourageyou first to contact Elective at [email protected] to try resolving your problem directly with us.

Mandatory Arbitration. THIS SECTION AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE BY USING THE ELECTIVE SERVICE OR THE WEBSITE.

Unless you are a covered borrower as defined by the Military Lending Act, 10 U.S.C. § 987, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, except as explicitly provided in this Agreement, any dispute or claim relating in any way to your visit to the Website, your use of the Elective Services, a product offered or provided by or through the Website or Service, or otherwise arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services that cannot be resolved directly between you and Elective shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("theConsumer Rules") of the American Arbitration Association("AAA"), rather than in court. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Section, this broadly includes: any claims based in contract, statute, tort, fraud, consumer rights, misrepresentation, equity or any other legal theory; initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims, and third-party claims; federal, state, and local claims; and claims which arose before the date of this Agreement. The Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited, but an arbitrator can award an individual the same damages and relief as a court and must apply and follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. The arbitrator shall apply applicable statutes of limitations and honor privilege rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT YOUR CONSENT TO ARBITRATION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.

Either you or we can initiate arbitration through AAA, an alternative dispute resolution provider, or by filing a motion to compel arbitration of claims filed in court. Regardless of who elected arbitration or how arbitration was elected, the party asserting the claim (i.e., the party seeking money damages or other relief from a court or an arbitrator) is responsible for starting the arbitration proceeding. If AAA cannot serve, a court with jurisdiction shall select the arbitrator, who will apply the AAA rules and procedures specified in this Section. Any arbitration will be governed by the then-current Consumer Rules of the AAA, and its Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes through Document Submission ("Document Submission Procedures"). The Consumer Rules are available at the AAA website: www.adr.org. The Document Submission Procedures are included in the Consumer Rules. Your arbitration filing fees will be governed by the Consumer Rules. The arbitration will be conducted solely based on written submissions. The arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless the arbitrator determines that a telephonic or in-person conference or hearing is necessary based on the request of one or more of the parties. Disputes or controversies about the validity, enforceability, coverage, or scope of this Section or any part thereof are for a court and not an arbitrator to decide; however, disputes or controversies about the Agreement as a whole are for an arbitrator and not a court to decide.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER: You and Elective each agree that any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated or representative action. To the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration will be joined or consolidated with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action or private attorney general basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. No arbitrator shall have the authority to issue any relief that applies to any person or entity other than Elective and/or you individually.

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. Even if all parties have opted to litigate a claim in court, a party may elect arbitration with respect to any claim made by a new party or any claim later asserted by a party in that or any related or unrelated lawsuit (including a claim initially asserted on an individual basis but modified to be asserted on a class, representative, or multi-party basis). Nothing in that litigation shall constitute a waiver of any rights under this Section. You and Elective each agree that any disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of intellectual property rights will not be subject to binding arbitration under this Section. In addition, pursuant to the Consumer Rules, any party may proceed with their individual claims in small claims court if that option is available in the applicable jurisdiction and the amount in controversy falls within the small claims court's jurisdictional limits; but if that action is transferred, removed, or appealed to a different court, arbitration can be elected. If any portion of this Section is inconsistent with the Consumer Rules or other provisions of this Agreement, this Section shall govern. This Section shall survive termination of this Agreement and any bankruptcy by you, to the extent consistent with applicable bankruptcy law. No portion of this Section may be amended absent a written agreement signed by all parties. If any portion of this Section is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Section, except that: (A) If the Class Action Waiver is limited, voided, or found unenforceable, then this Section (except for this sentence) shall be null and void with respect to such proceeding, subject to the right to appeal the limitation or invalidation of the Class Action Waiver. The parties acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will a class action be arbitrated; and (B) if a claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in the Class Action Waiver or elsewhere in this Section prohibiting the arbitrator from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such claim (and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual claims seeking monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties will request that the court stay the claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a claim for public injunctive relief be arbitrated. No arbitration award involving the parties will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award in prior disputes involving other parties have a preclusive effect in an arbitration between the parties to this Section.

RIGHT TO OPT OUT: If you do not want this Section to apply, you must send Elective a signed notice within 30 calendar days after you agree to be bound by the Agreement as described above. You must send the notice in writing (and not electronically) to Gnosis Labs Inc. Attn. "Terms of Service Section 5 Opt Out", 2015 Main Street, Suite 02-138, Vancouver, BC V5T3C2. You must provide your name, address, and phone number and state that you "opt out" of Section 5 within the Elective Terms of Service. Opting out of this Mandatory Arbitration provision will not affect the other provisions of this Agreement. If you properly and timely opt out of Mandatory Arbitration as described herein, your opt out request will apply only to this Agreement and not any other agreement between us.

Elective E-Sign Disclosure and Consent Agreement.

Consumer Consent. This E-Sign Consent constitutes your consent to receive Disclosures and other information in electronic form, subject to any limitations under applicable law. In connection with the Elective Services, Elective is required by law to provide you with certain disclosures in writing on paper. With your consent, Elective is permitted to provide those disclosures to you in electronic form instead.

Elective may send any communications, billing statements, or required disclosures, such as initial and annual privacy notices (together, "Disclosures") to you electronically via our Website or to the email address or mobile telephone number that you have provided to us, either directly or indirectly via the merchant to whom Elective will send funds on your behalf. Elective may notify you via email when the Disclosures are available. The Disclosures will be available for at least 30 days and will be provided to you in a format that can either be printed or downloaded for your records. By providing your consent, you also agree to the use of electronic signatures. This consent applies to any transaction undertaken through the provision of Services in the past, to all future Disclosures and communications on your account, to all future transactions in which you use the Services, at any time, to any transaction with us, and to other Disclosures that we provide to you by email.

In the event of a dispute we encourage you first to contact Elective through the Elective Help Center at https://help.elective.com to try resolving your problem directly with us.

Arbitration in Canada. To the extent permitted by applicable law, either party to these Terms of Service may require that any claim or dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service will be determined by final and binding arbitration. The arbitration would be conducted in the province or territory in which you reside at the time you enter in the payment plan agreement.

Mandatory Arbitration in the United States of America. THIS SECTION AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE AGREEING TO THESE TERMS OF SERVICE BY USING THE ELECTIVE SERVICE OR THE WEBSITE. Unless you are a covered borrower as defined by the Military Lending Act, 10U.S.C. § 987, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, except as explicitly provided in this Agreement, any dispute or claim relating in any way to your visit to the Website, your use of the Elective Services, a product offered or provided by or through the Website or Service, or otherwise arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Services that cannot be resolved directly between you and Elective shall be resolved by binding arbitration under the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("the Consumer Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), rather than in court. Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Section, this broadly includes: any claims based in contract, statute, tort, fraud, consumer rights, misrepresentation, equity or any other legal theory; initial claims, counterclaims, cross-claims and third-party claims; federal, state and local claims; and claims which arose before the date of this Agreement. The Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal arbitration law apply to this Agreement. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and court review of an arbitration award is limited, but an arbitrator can award an individual the same damages and relief as a court and must apply and follow the terms of this Agreement as a court would. The arbitrator shall apply applicable statutes of limitations and honor privilege rules. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator will be final and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT YOUR CONSENT TO ARBITRATION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.

Either you or we can initiate arbitration through AAA, an alternative dispute resolution provider, or by filing a motion to compel arbitration of claims filed in court. Regardless of who elected arbitration or how arbitration was elected, the party asserting the claim (i.e., the party seeking money damages or other relief from a court or an arbitrator) is responsible for starting the arbitration proceeding. If AAA cannot serve, a court with jurisdiction shall select the arbitrator, who will apply the AAA rules and procedures specified in this Section. Any arbitration will be governed by the then-current Consumer Rules of the AAA, and its Procedures for the Resolution of Disputes throughDocument Submission ("Document Submission Procedures"). The Consumer Rules are available at the AAA website: www.adr.org. The Document Submission Procedures are included in the Consumer Rules. Your arbitration filing fees will be governed by the Consumer Rules. If it is determined by the arbitrator that you cannot afford such fees, Elective will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration will be conducted solely based on written submissions. The arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless the arbitrator determines that a telephonic or in-person conference or hearing is necessary based on the request of one or more of the parties. Disputes or controversies about the validity, enforceability, coverage or scope of this Section or any part thereof are for a court and not an arbitrator to decide; however, disputes or controversies about the Agreement asa whole are for an arbitrator and not a court to decide.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER: You and Elective each agree that any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated or representative action. To the fullest extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration will be joined or consolidated with any other; (b) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action or private attorney general basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for any dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. No arbitrator shall have the authority to issue any relief that applies to any person or entity other than Elective and/or you individually.

If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive any right to a jury trial. Even if all parties have opted to litigate a claim in court, a party may elect arbitration with respect to any claim made by a new party or any claim later asserted by a party in that or any related or unrelated lawsuit (including a claim initially asserted on an individual basis but modified to be asserted on a class, representative or multi-party basis). Nothing in that litigation shall constitute a waiver of any rights under this Section. You and Elective each agree that any disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of intellectual property rights will not be subject to binding arbitration under this Section. In addition, pursuant to the Consumer Rules, any party may proceed with their individual claims in small claims court if that option is available in the applicable jurisdiction and the amount in controversy falls within the small claims court’s jurisdictional limits; but if that action is transferred, removed or appealed to a different court, arbitration can be elected. If any portion of this Section is inconsistent with the Consumer Rules or other provisions of this Agreement, this Section shall govern. This Section shall survive termination of this Agreement and any bankruptcy by you, to the extent consistent with applicable bankruptcy law. No portion of this Section may be amended absent a written agreement signed by all parties. If any portion of this Section is deemed invalid or unenforceable, it shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Section, except that: (A)If the Class Action Waiver is limited, voided or found unenforceable, then this Section (except for this sentence) shall be null and void with respect to such proceeding, subject to the right to appeal the limitation or invalidation of the Class Action Waiver. The parties acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will a class action be arbitrated; and (B) if a claim is brought seeking public injunctive relief and a court determines that the restrictions in the Class Action Waiver or elsewhere in this Section prohibiting the arbitrator from awarding relief on behalf of third parties are unenforceable with respect to such claim (and that determination becomes final after all appeals have been exhausted), the claim for public injunctive relief will be determined in court and any individual claims seeking monetary relief will be arbitrated. In such a case the parties will request that the court stay the claim for public injunctive relief until the arbitration award pertaining to individual relief has been entered in court. In no event will a claim for public injunctive relief be arbitrated. No arbitration award involving the parties will have any preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute involving anyone who is not a party to the arbitration, nor will an arbitration award in prior disputes involving other parties have a preclusive effect in an arbitration between the parties to this Section.

RIGHT TO OPT OUT: If you do not want this Section to apply, you must send Elective a signed notice within 30 calendar days after you agree to be bound by the Agreement as described above. You must send the notice in writing (and not electronically) to Elective, Inc. Attn. "Terms of Service Section 5 Opt Out", 1010 Raymur Avenue, Vancouver, BC V6A3T2.You must provide your name, address, and phone number and state that you"opt out" of Section 5 within the Elective Terms of Service. Opting out of this Mandatory Arbitration provision will not affect the other provisions of this Agreement. If you properly and timely opt out of Mandatory Arbitration as described herein, your opt out request will apply only to thisAgreement and not any other agreement between us.
