Terms of Service
Last Updated: August 27, 2020
Welcome to the Internet sites of Elios and its subsidiaries ("Elios"). "Elios Sites" include myelios.com, goplugbags.com, journeytrak.com, and other Internet sites on which these Terms of Use are posted. The Elios Sites, products and content may be branded other brands owned by Elios. Elios is sometimes referred to herein as "we," "us" or "our."
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING ANY ELIOS SITE. By using any Elios Site you signify your agreement to these Terms of Use. If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, you may not use the Elios Sites.
Note that special terms might apply to some services or features offered on certain Elios Sites. These terms are posted in connection with the applicable service or feature. Any such terms are in addition to these Terms of Use, and in the event of a conflict, prevail over these Terms of Use.
Elios may modify these Terms of Use at any time by updating this posting. You are bound by any such modification and should therefore visit this page periodically to review these Terms of Use.
By accessing or using the applications and services owned or operated by Elios, whether through our software app(s) or website (our "Services"), you are accepting and agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions set forth below (these "Terms").
We may update these Terms from time to time, so please review them frequently. For Elios customers who accepted a version of this Agreement prior to modification, the revisions will become effective 30 days after posting on Elios.com. Your continued use of Elios Services means you accept the changes. Once you accept a version of the Agreement, however, we will not enforce future material changes without your express agreement to them. If you are asked to accept material changes to this Agreement and you decline to do so, you may not be able to continue to use the Elios Services.
Because our Services continue to evolve, we may change or discontinue all or any part of the Services, at any time and without notice, in our sole discretion. For residents of certain countries, you agree to the arbitration agreement and class action waiver described in Section 24 to resolve disputes with Elios.

1. License
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Elios grants you a limited non-exclusive, non-transferable license to download and install a copy of our desktop or mobile software app (the "App") on a single device that you own or control and to run such copy of the App and use our Services solely for your own personal non-commercial purposes. We reserve all rights in and to the App and Services not expressly granted to you under these Terms. You may not: (i) copy, modify or create derivative works based on the App or Services; (ii) distribute, transfer, sublicense, lend or rent the App to any third party; (iii) reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the App; or (iv) make the functionality of the App or Services available to multiple users through any means.
2. Downloading Our App
When you download our App from the Apple App Store, Google Play or other app store or app distribution platform (an "App Store"), you acknowledge and agree that:
◦ These Terms are concluded between us, and not with the App Store, and that we (not the App Store), are solely responsible for our App.
◦ The App Store has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to our App or handle any warranty claims.
◦ The App Store is not responsible for addressing any claims you have relating to our App, including product liability claims, consumer protection claims, intellectual property infringement claims, or any claim that our App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement.
◦ The App Store is a third party beneficiary of these Terms and has the right to enforce these Terms against you (as it relates to your license of our App through their App Store). You must also comply with the App Store's terms of service when using our App.
3. Creating an Account
In order to use certain features of our Services, you must have an account with us. By creating an account, you represent that (a) all required information you provide is truthful and accurate; (b) you are of legal age to agree to these Terms; and (c) your use of our Services does not violate any applicable law or regulation or these Terms. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for any and all use of your account. You should notify us immediately if you suspect any unauthorized use of your account or access to your password. You may not (a) use the account or username of any other user; (b) allow someone else to use your account or username; or (c) sell, lend, transfer, or otherwise share your account, temporarily or permanently, with someone else. If you violate these Terms, we reserve the right to issue you a warning, suspend or even terminate your account (along with your ability to access and use the Services).
4. Payments
We may allow you to purchase Elios hardware products ("Products") through our Services. We may also require that you purchase a subscription to use certain features of the Services (a “Subscription”). By purchasing Products or a Subscription (each, a “Transaction”), you expressly authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge you for such Transaction. We may ask you to provide additional information relevant to your Transaction, including your credit card number, the expiration date of your credit card and your email and postal addresses for billing and notification (such information, “Payment Information”). You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to use all payment methods represented by Payment Information that you provide us. You acknowledge and agree that we have no liability with respect to any act or omission by your payment provider. When you initiate a Transaction, you authorize us to provide your Payment Information to third parties so we can complete your Transaction and to charge your payment method for the type of Transaction you have selected (plus any applicable taxes and other charges). You may need to provide additional information to verify your identity before completing your Transaction (such information is included within the definition of Payment Information).
5. Subscription
If you purchase a Subscription, you will be charged a subscription fee, plus any applicable taxes and other charges (a “Subscription Fee”), at the beginning of your Subscription, and at the start of each billing period thereafter, at the then-current Subscription Fee. You may elect to pay your Subscription Fee on a monthly basis (a “Monthly Subscription”), or on an annual basis (an “Annual Subscription”). If you choose a Monthly Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you each month on the anniversary of the commencement of your Monthly Subscription, using the Payment Information you have provided until you cancel your Monthly Subscription. If you choose an Annual Subscription, we (or our third-party payment processor) will automatically charge you annually on the anniversary of the commencement of your Annual Subscription, using the Payment Information you have provided until you cancel your Annual Subscription. If you have an Annual Subscription, we will send you a reminder at least thirty (30) days prior to each renewal with the then-current Subscription Fee. We reserve the right to change our Subscription Fees for Monthly and Annual Subscriptions. We will provide you advance notice of any increase in the Subscription Fees applicable to your Subscription.
You may change your Monthly Subscription to an Annual Subscription, or your Annual Subscription to a Monthly Subscription, by contacting us via http://support.myElios.com, if you signed up on Elios.com, or via the applicable App Store where you downloaded the App, if you signed up through the App. If you change your Monthly Subscription to an Annual Subscription, or your Annual Subscription to a Monthly Subscription, your billing date may also change. If you change from a Monthly Subscription to an Annual Subscription, on your next billing date, you will be charged the then-current Subscription Fee for an Annual Membership, and your Annual Subscription will renew on an annual basis. If you change from an Annual Subscription to a Monthly Subscription, at the next renewal date for your Annual Subscription, you will be charged the then-current Subscription Fee for a Monthly Membership, and your Monthly Subscription will renew on a Monthly basis.
6. Cancellation of a Subscription
YOUR PURCHASE OF A SUBSCRIPTION IS FINAL AND YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO CANCEL THE PURCHASE AND/OR RECEIVE A REFUND AT ANY TIME. But if something unexpected happens in the course of completing the Transaction for your purchase of a Subscription, we reserve the right to cancel your Transaction for any reason; if we cancel your Transaction we’ll refund any payment you have already remitted to us for such Transaction.
Without limiting the foregoing, you may cancel your Subscription at any time, but please note that such cancellation will be effective at the end of the then-current Monthly or Annual Subscription period. If you signed up on Elios.com, you may cancel your Subscription by logging into your account at https://www.MyElios.com/dashboard/ and selecting “Cancel Subscription.” If you signed up through the App, you may cancel your Subscription via the applicable App Store where you downloaded the App. YOU WILL NOT RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY PORTION OF THE SUBSCRIPTION FEE PAID FOR THE THEN CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD AT THE TIME OF CANCELLATION. You will be responsible for all Subscription Fees (plus any applicable taxes and other charges) incurred for the then-current subscription period. If you cancel, your Subscription will continue until the end of your then-current subscription period and will then terminate without further charges.
7. Free Trials
We may offer you a free trial period at the start of your Subscription (a “Free Trial Period”). The Free Trial Period for your Subscription will last for the period of time specified when you signed up. When you try our Subscription through a Free Trial Period, you must create an account and provide your Payment Information. By accepting a Free Trial Period, you agree that, at the end of the Free Trial Period, you will be charged the then-current Subscription Fee for a Monthly or Annual Subscription, as specified in the offer for the Free Trial Period, and at the start of each subsequent billing period. You authorize us to charge you using the Payment Information you provided when you accepted the offer for the Free Trial Period. We may validate your Payment Information and the payment method you provided by requesting a temporary authorization to the financial institution that issued your payment method. If we determine that your Payment Information or payment method is invalid, we may revoke your Subscription and terminate your Free Trial Period. You may cancel your Subscription, as described in these Terms, at any time before the end of the Free Trial Period. You will not be charged a Subscription Fee after you cancel your Subscription.

This Section is an agreement between you and Elios, and applies to our respective agents, employees, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, beneficiaries and assigns.

This Section shall be interpreted broadly and shall survive termination of this Agreement.
A. Claims Covered by Arbitration
All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Elios product or service and its marketing, or the relationship between you and Elios ("Disputes") shall be determined exclusively by binding arbitration. This includes claims that accrued before you entered into this Agreement. The only Disputes not covered by this Section are claims (i) regarding the infringement, protection or validity of your, Elios’s or Elios’s licensors' trade secrets or copyright, trademark or patent rights; (ii) if you reside in Australia, to enforce a statutory consumer right under Australia consumer law; and (iii) brought in small claims court.
B. Informal Negotiations
You and Elios shall first attempt to resolve any Dispute informally for at least 30 days before initiating arbitration. The informal negotiations commence upon receipt of written notice from one person to the other ("Notice of Dispute"). The Notice of Dispute must: (a) include the full name and contact information of the complaining party; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Elios will send its Notice of Dispute to your billing or email address. You will send your Notice of Dispute to: Elios 63 East 11400 South #242, Sandy, Utah 84070, ATTENTION: Legal Department.
C. Binding Arbitration
If you and Elios cannot resolve a Dispute informally, you or Elios may elect to have the Dispute finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and, where appropriate, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, or if you send Elios a notice to the Notice of Dispute address above indicating that you are unable to pay the fees required to initiate an arbitration, Elios will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing, and shall provide a statement of reasons if requested by either party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. You and Elios may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
D. Limitations
YOU AND ELIOS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator shall not consolidate another person's claims with your claims, and shall not preside over any type of representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. If this specific subsection is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this agreement to arbitrate shall be null and void.
E. Location
If you live in the United States, arbitration will take place at any reasonable location convenient for you. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in the County of San Mateo, State of California, United States of America, and you and Elios agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court, in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
F. Recovery
If the arbitrator rules in your favor on the merits of any claim you bring against Elios and issues you an award that is greater in monetary value than Elios's last written settlement offer made before Elios makes its final written submissions to the arbitrator, then Elios will:
◦ Pay you 150% of your arbitration award, up to $5,000 USD over and above your arbitration award; and
◦ Reimburse the arbitration fees that you paid to the AAA.
G. Changes to this Arbitration Agreement
Elios will not enforce material changes to this section in the future unless you expressly agree to them.
