Welcome to the Highlightly Software! By clicking the “Accept & Install” button below, you agree to this Software license agreement (“License Agreement”). The Software (as defined below) is owned by Highlightly, a d/b/a of a California corporation.
If you disagree with any of the terms of this License Agreement, Highlightly does not grant you a license to use the Software. Do not install it.
You may not use the Software if you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Highlightly. If you are under 18 years old, do not install or use the Software or any of our products.
IMPORTANT! By agreeing to these terms, you acknowledge that you have read and consent to this License Agreement, that you understand it, and that you agree to be bound by its terms. In particular, you agree that the Software may perform all its functions and you consent to and desire that the Software affect certain aspects of the appearance of websites as you will view them, as further described below. You are also agreeing to arbitrate all claims in the manner described below, including to permit the entry of judgment in a court of competent jurisdiction. These provisions form an essential basis of our agreement.
The Software analyzes and records the ways in which you use your computer and the websites you visit so that you can: (i) view definitions, translations, and search results without leaving a webpage by highlighting keywords or phrases; and (ii) receive targeted advertisements in the form of additional shopping comparison, coupon, in-text transitional, and in-text link advertisements.
The Software interacts with your computer by:
Inserting into web pages;
Converting words on pages you view into hyperlinks that are linked to advertisements;
Communicating with our servers to determine whether to insert advertising software from our third party Licensors into the web pages you are viewing and, if so, to obtain and inject the software.
Communicating with our servers to check for new offers, the placement of offers, the date and time you install and uninstall the Software, and whether an updated version of the Software is available;
Monitoring and recording the domain name of each page you view, the advertisements that appear on these pages, and the advertisements that you click.
Changing browser settings to optimize Highlightly functionality and performance.

Arbitration
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS, DISPUTES, OR CONTROVERSIES BETWEEN YOU AND HIGHLIGHTLY OR ITS LICENSORS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TORT AND CONTRACT CLAIMS, CLAIMS BASED UPON ANY FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL STATUTE, LAW, ORDER, ORDINANCE OR REGULATION, AND THE ISSUE OF ARBITRABILITY, SHALL BE RESOLVED BY THE FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION PROCEDURES SET BELOW.

THIS ARBITRATION CONTRACT IS MADE PURSUANT TO A TRANSACTION IN INTERSTATE COMMERCE AND ITS INTERPRETATION, APPLICATION, ENFORCEMENT AND PROCEEDINGS HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT ("FAA").
The following procedures shall apply to any arbitration: 1) Any party that intends to make a claim shall first notify the opposing party in writing of such intention and shall describe in such notice, with reasonable particularity, the nature and basis of such claim, and the total amount of the claim. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice, the party receiving notice of a claim shall either cure the alleged basis of the claim (in which case the matter will be deemed resolved) or provide a written response which, with reasonable particularity, sets forth its position concerning the claim. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute arising from the claim by good faith negotiations to be conducted within the thirty (30)-day period following the written response, or the alleged basis of the claim is not cured, either of them may initiate binding arbitration pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below. 2) In the event a party elects to proceed with binding arbitration, it shall provide written notice thereof to the other party by registered or certified mail. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator appointed, and shall be conducted using the then current JAMS commercial rules and regulations (except as varied by this agreement). The arbitration shall take place in San Diego County, California, at Highlightly’s sole discretion, but may proceed telephonically in the event the total amount of the claim does not exceed $2,500 U.S. dollars (if the claimant so chooses).

Waiver. No failure or delay on the part of Highlightly in exercising any right, power or remedy under this License Agreement may operate as a waiver, nor may any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or remedy, or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy under this License Agreement.
