Performance and Limitations on Service. As with any mobile broadband network, speed may vary due to your Device, atmospheric conditions, terrain, network capacity, and the number of users on the system at the time and aircraft location. The Service is available only when it is within the operating range of our system or of an operator with which we have an applicable roaming agreement.

The Service is subject to unavailability, including emergencies, third party service failures, transmission, equipment or network problems or limitations, interference, signal strength, maintenance and repair, and national security issues, and may be interrupted, refused, limited, or curtailed. Unless prohibited by law, the following limitations of liability apply: Service may be interrupted, delayed, refused, limited, curtailed, unavailable, or otherwise limited for a variety of reasons, including environmental conditions, emergencies, third-party service failures, transmission problems, equipment or network problems or limitations, interference, signal strength, equipment or network maintenance and repair, national security issues, unavailability of radio frequency channels, system capacity or congestion, priority access by National Security and Emergency Preparedness personnel in the event of a disaster or emergency, coordination with other systems, equipment or network modifications and repairs, and problems with the facilities of wireless carriers. We may block access to certain categories of numbers at our sole discretion.
Additional hardware, software, subscription, credit or debit card, or special network connection may be required and you are solely responsible for arranging for or obtaining all such requirements.
Privacy. Use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy at Privacy Policy | Gogo Business Aviation (gogoair.com), which is incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.
The Service is provided “As-Is” and as available. We and our Service providers, partners, and affiliates expressly disclaim any warranties and conditions of any kind, whether express or implied, including, but not limited to, the warranties or conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, quiet enjoyment, accuracy, or non-infringement. We (and each of its service providers) make no warranty that: (a) the Service will meet your requirements; (b) the Service will be available on an uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free and malicious code-free basis; (c) the Service will be any particular speed or allow any particular application or service; or (d) the results that may be obtained from the use of the Service will be accurate or reliable. You expressly acknowledge that there are certain security, confidentiality, and privacy risks inherent in wireless communications and technology and we do not make any assurances or warranties relating to such risks. You acknowledge that we are not responsible for messages lost or misdirected.
You acknowledge that the third parties that provide the Third Party Services may, at any time, change the means by which the Third Party Services are accessed, and consequently, your ability to use the Service to facilitate your access to any Third Party Services may be temporarily or permanently disabled. You agree that Gogo shall have no responsibility or liability to you whatsoever in relation to the Third Party Services or continuing access to the Third Party Services, and that we make no representations or warranties with respect to the Third Party Services.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not apply to you.
In no event shall we be liable to you or any third party for any lost profit or any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, special, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, our liability (including, but not limited to, our partners and affiliates) to you for any damages arising from or related to your use of the Service (for any cause whatsoever and regardless of the form of the action), will at all times be limited to the greater of Fifty US Dollars ($50) and the amounts you paid to us in the twelve (12) months prior to the accrual of the claim, if any.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you, and you may also have other legal rights that vary from jurisdiction to jurisdiction.
It is our goal that the Service meet your expectations. However, there may be instances when you have a problem or dispute that needs special attention. In those instances, we are committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution that satisfies you; however, we can only do this if we know about and understand your issue. Therefore, for any problem or dispute that you may have with us, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give us an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes you first sending a written description of your problem or dispute using the following email address: bacustomerservice@gogoair.com or mailing address: Gogo Customer Care, 105 Edgeview Drive, Suite 300, Broomfield, CO 80021.
You then agree to negotiate with us in good faith about your problem or dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after our receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.
You agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims, whether in contract, tort, statutory or otherwise, including issues relating to arbitrability and jurisdiction, that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of any aspect of your relationship with us, the Service or this Agreement, or any product or service offered by us, shall be final and binding arbitration, except to the extent that you have in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate our, or any third party patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or publicity rights, in which case you acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by us and/or the applicable third party(ies). You and we acknowledge that the Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under the Agreement (despite any other choice of law provision).
Arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). For claims of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for claims over $75,000, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Upon your filing of the arbitration demand, we will pay all filing, administration and arbitrator fees for claims that total less than $75,000. For claims that total more than $75,000, the payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. We and you agree to pay our own other fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief and attorneys’ fees. In addition, for claims under $75,000 as to which you provided notice and negotiated in good faith with us as required above before initiating arbitration, if the arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, we agree not to seek an award of attorneys’ fees in arbitration even if an award is otherwise available under applicable law. As a limited exception to the agreement to arbitrate, we and you agree that you may take claims to small claims court, if your claims qualify for hearing by such court.
YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION WITH REGARD TO ANY PARTICULAR INTERACTION WITH THE SERVICE, THEN WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF SUCH INTERACTION, YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THIS PART OF THE AGREEMENT BY:
Any opt-out received after the thirty (30) day time period will not be valid and you must pursue your claim via arbitration pursuant to these Terms.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, NO ARBITRATION OR OTHER CLAIM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE JOINED TO ANY OTHER ARBITRATION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM INVOLVING ANY OTHER CURRENT OR FORMER USER OF THE SERVICE, AND NO CLASS ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE PERMITTED. In the event that this CLASS ACTION WAIVER is deemed unenforceable, then any putative class action may only proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration.
WE BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, WE AND YOU BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US.
In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the Service or this Agreement be instituted more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.
You agree to defend, hold harmless, and indemnify us, our parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents, licensees, and other partners and employees, from any loss, liability, claim, or demand, including reasonable attorney’s fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your use of the Service in violation of this Agreement, arising from your breach of any provision of this Agreement and any claims under the TCPA related to your use of the Service.
