Only the intellectual property rights owner or person authorized to act on behalf of the owner can report potentially infringing content. If you have a good faith belief that content on the Website or App infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, please follow the procedures set forth below.

In accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”), CQ Hotels has a designated agent for receiving notices of copyright infringement and CQ Hotels follows the notice and take down procedures of the DMCA.

If you believe that any content on the Website or App contains content that violates your rights other than copyrights, please provide CQ Hotels at least the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient to permit us to locate the material; (c) an explanation of what rights you own/have and why you believe the content infringes your rights sufficient for us to evaluate your complaint; and (d) accurate contact information for you.

legal@clubquarters.com (with subject “Copyright Complaints”)
One Atlantic Street, 5th Floor, Stamford, CT 06901

We have a policy of terminating access to users who (in our reasonable discretion) are repeat infringers.

It is often difficult to determine if your intellectual property rights have been violated or if the DMCA requirements have been met. We may request additional information before we remove any infringing material. If a dispute develops as to the correct owner of the rights in question, we reserve the right to remove your content along with that of the alleged infringer pending resolution of the matter.

CQ Hotels will provide you with notice if your submission has been removed based on a third party complaint of alleged infringement of the third party’s intellectual property rights.

You agree that you will only use Keyless Entry in connection with a valid reservation for the intended purposes of checking-in and of using your mobile device to access designated areas that you are lawfully permitted to access, including the guest room assigned to you. You shall not use Keyless Entry for any other purpose and you may only use Keyless Entry on a mobile device that you control.

Copyright and patent laws and international treaty provisions protect Keyless Entry software and mobile keys.

When the App is provided to you through Apple, Inc. or its affiliates (collectively, “Apple”), the following terms apply in addition to all the other terms and conditions of this Agreement:

This Agreement concluded between the parties, and not with Apple. Apple is not responsible for the App or its content; the App and its content are solely governed by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary hereunder, you may use the App only on an Apple-branded device that you own or control, subject to Apple’s App Store Terms of Service.

The parties acknowledge that Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance or support services with respect to the App.

CQ Hotels makes no warranties regarding the App. But in the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty that is not effectively disclaimed, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price for the App (if any) to you. Except for the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be governed by this Agreement.

Any (i) product liability claims relating to the App, (ii) claims that the App fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement and (iii) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation are governed by this Agreement, and Apple is not responsible for such claims.

Any third party claim that the App or your possession and use of the App infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights will be governed by this Agreement, and Apple will not be responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim.

Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third party beneficiaries to this Agreement and may enforce this Agreement against you.

Appendix 1
Additional Terms for Consumers in the United Kingdom

This Appendix 1 applies to a consumer residing in the UK.

1. Right to cancel

You have a right to cancel your use of the App within 14 days of download of the App and receive a refund where you have provided payment to use the App. To exercise this right, you will need to inform us of your decision by contacting us at legal@clubquarters.com before the 14 days period expires. You also have a right to inform us using the model cancellation form below or by making any other clear statement. If you use this option, we will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a cancellation on a durable medium (e.g., by e-mail) without delay. Where you have provided payment to use the App, we will refund you the price you paid (if any) for the App including delivery costs, by the method you used for payment within 14 days from the day you informed us of your wish to cancel. For the avoidance of doubt, the right to cancel described in this Section 1 does not apply to any hotel reservation, even if made using the App.

2. Your liability
Please note that you will be responsible for any losses, expenses or costs incurred by CQ Hotels resulting from your deliberate breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Website and/or App, and your violation of any law. You will also be responsible for all costs allowable if an award is made by a court or arbitration in our favor in relation to any of your violation of the Terms.

3. Disclaimers
Where any applicable legislation implies any warranties, guarantees or conditions or imposes obligations upon us which cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or modified except to a limited extent, these Terms must be read subject to those statutory provisions. Any legal rights which you have as a consumer, which cannot be excluded or limited, will not be affected by the provisions of these Terms. To the maximum extent permitted by such legislation, our liability for a breach of that condition, guarantee or warranty will be limited to the Cap (as defined at 4(b) below).

4. Our liability

a) We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so. This includes liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors and/or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

b) If we fail to comply with the provisions of these Terms, we are responsible for loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this contract or our failing to use reasonable care and skill only, but we are not responsible for any loss or damage that is not foreseeable nor caused by our breach nor for factors which could reasonably be considered to be outside of our control. In no event shall the total sum of our liability to you exceed one hundred US dollars ($100.00) (the Cap).

c) If the App is (a) provided for free; and (b) causes damage to your registered device or other digital content on your registered device and such damage is caused by our failure to use reasonable skill and care, we will (in our sole discretion) either repair the damage or pay you appropriate compensation (which shall be limited to the Cap). However, We will not be liable for damage that you could have avoided by following our advice to apply an update offered to you free of charge (e.g. via standard app update mechanisms from where you downloaded or otherwise obtained the App) or for damage that was caused by you failing to correctly follow installation instructions or to have in place the minimum system requirements advised by us.

d) We only supply the products for domestic and private use. Subject to (3) and 4(a) above, if you use the Website or App for any commercial or business purposes, we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

5. Venue

You can bring legal proceedings in respect of the Website or App in the English courts.
