LOCAL BLAST LLC

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE

Effective Date: September 28, 2026 Last Updated: September 28, 2026 Version: 2.0

Welcome to Local Blast!

These Terms and Conditions of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you, whether personally or on behalf of a business or other entity ("you," "User," "Consumer," or "Merchant"), and Local Blast LLC, a Florida limited liability company ("Local Blast," "we," "us," or "our").

These Terms govern your access to and use of the Local Blast website, Local Blast Pulse mobile application, Business Command Center, registration and subscription services, and any related products, features, websites, or services (collectively, the "Platform").

The Platform connects local consumers with participating businesses through location-based promotions, limited-time offers, digital Blast Passes, and related services.

By accessing or using the Platform, registering an account, submitting a Merchant deposit, or purchasing a subscription, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms.

If you are registering on behalf of a business, you represent that you have the authority to enter into this agreement on behalf of that business.

IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THESE TERMS, YOU MUST NOT ACCESS OR USE THE PLATFORM.

Our Privacy Policy, available at https://www.localblastapp.com/privacy-policy , explains how we collect, use, store, and protect your information.

Where a separate end-user license agreement applies to the mobile application, that agreement also governs the applicable mobile application's use. The Merchant deposit, registration, and subscription provisions in these Terms govern business registrations.

Blast Passes may include discounts, complimentary products, buy-one-get-one offers, limited-time promotions, or other Merchant-defined benefits.

The geographical area within which a Blast may be distributed or made available.

Available geographical targeting options depend on the applicable membership plan, Platform settings, and operational limitations.

Membership Activation is distinct from initial registration and payment of the Merchant Deposit.

1.14 Founders Legacy Membership

A limited promotional membership offered to qualifying early-adopter businesses.

Eligibility, pricing, and benefits are determined by the specific Founders offer accepted by the Merchant.

2. ELIGIBILITY AND ACCOUNT REGISTRATION

2.1 Consumer Eligibility

To register as a Consumer, you must:

1. Be at least eighteen (18) years old.
2. Be legally permitted to use the Platform in the United States.
3. Provide accurate registration information.
4. Maintain the security of your account.
5. Comply with these Terms and applicable laws.

Certain Platform features require a compatible device, internet connectivity, and location permissions.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for activity occurring through your account, except where applicable law provides otherwise.

2.2 Merchant Eligibility

To register as a Merchant, you must:

1. Operate a legitimate business legally permitted to offer its products or services.
2. Be the business owner or an authorized representative.
3. Provide accurate business and contact information.
4. Maintain any licenses, permits, or registrations required for your business.
5. Have a physical business location or another business model expressly approved by Local Blast.
6. Agree to these Terms and any applicable Merchant registration or payment terms.

Submitting a registration or deposit does not automatically establish verified Merchant status or guarantee Membership Activation.

2.3 Business Verification

Local Blast may verify the identity, ownership, legitimacy, operating location, or eligibility of any Merchant.

Verification may include requesting:

• Business ownership or authorization documentation.
• Corporate registration or business license information.
• Employer Identification Number or equivalent tax information, where appropriate.
• Google Business Profile information.
• Business website or other publicly available business information.
• Additional documentation reasonably necessary to establish eligibility.

These documents are not automatically required during initial registration unless specifically requested.

Local Blast may approve, delay, or decline an application based on its verification requirements, applicable laws, or Platform eligibility standards.

2.4 Accuracy of Account Information

Merchants and Consumers must maintain accurate account information.

Merchants are responsible for updating their business information, including their business name, contact details, location, operating hours, and applicable promotional information.

Local Blast may suspend accounts containing materially inaccurate or fraudulent information.

2.5 Account Security

You must take reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access to your account.

You agree to notify Local Blast promptly if you become aware of unauthorized account access or a suspected security breach.

Local Blast may temporarily restrict access when reasonably necessary to protect account security.

3. MERCHANT DEPOSITS, MEMBERSHIP FEES, AND SUBSCRIPTIONS

This section governs paid Merchant registration, deposits, subscription activation, billing, and cancellation.

3.1 One-Time $99 Merchant Registration Deposit

Merchants registering through the applicable Business Command Center registration process are required to pay a one-time $99.00 Merchant Deposit unless a different amount is expressly disclosed during checkout.

The Merchant Deposit is charged when registration and payment are successfully completed.

The $99.00 Merchant Deposit is an advance payment toward the Merchant's first paid subscription invoice. It is not a recurring charge or an additional fee on top of the subscription.

Payment of the deposit establishes the Merchant's deposit-paid registration status, subject to applicable eligibility and verification requirements.

It does not automatically activate the Merchant's paid subscription.

3.2 Application of the Deposit to the First Subscription Invoice

Upon Membership Activation, Local Blast will apply the Merchant's $99.00 deposit as a credit toward the first paid subscription invoice.

For example, if the Merchant's activated membership costs $99.00 per month, the deposit will cover the first month's $99.00 subscription fee, excluding any applicable taxes.

The Merchant will not be charged a second $99.00 subscription fee for that same first month.

If the Merchant's authorized subscription price exceeds the available deposit credit, the credit will be deducted from the first invoice, and only the remaining amount, together with any applicable taxes, will be charged.

If the subscription price is less than the available deposit credit, the unused credit will be carried forward and applied to a subsequent subscription invoice.

If the Merchant receives an expressly agreed introductory free period, the deposit credit will be retained and applied to the first paid subscription invoice following that period.

The deposit credit is not redeemable for cash after Membership Activation, except as required by law or expressly provided in a separate written agreement.

3.3 Deposit Refund Policy

A Merchant may request a full refund of the $99.00 Merchant Deposit at any time before Local Blast activates the Merchant's paid membership.

To request a refund, the Merchant must submit a written request to:

admin@localblastapp.com

The request should identify the registered business and the email address associated with the Merchant account.

Upon receiving and verifying an eligible refund request, Local Blast will process the refund to the original payment method where available.

Once the Merchant's membership has been activated and the deposit has been applied to the first subscription invoice, the deposit is no longer separately refundable.

Refunds after activation are governed by the applicable subscription refund provisions, any separate written agreement, and applicable law.

If Local Blast declines a Merchant's registration or determines that it cannot activate the Merchant's membership, Local Blast will refund any unapplied Merchant Deposit.

A Merchant who requests cancellation before Membership Activation will not incur additional subscription charges.

Any deposit refund rights provided under an earlier accepted promotional agreement will continue to apply to Merchants covered by that agreement.

3.4 Payment Method Authorization

Merchant registration and subscription payments are processed through Stripe or another payment processor designated by Local Blast.

When completing paid registration, the Merchant authorizes Local Blast to:

1. Charge the disclosed one-time registration deposit.
2. Use its payment processor to securely save the payment method for authorized future subscription payments.
3. Apply the deposit credit to the Merchant's first paid subscription invoice.
4. Initiate authorized recurring subscription charges following Membership Activation.
5. Process other charges expressly authorized by the Merchant.

The anticipated subscription amount, billing frequency, and applicable recurring payment terms will be disclosed during registration or before the Merchant authorizes a subscription.

Local Blast does not store complete payment card information on its own servers. Payment information is handled by the designated payment processor as described in our Privacy Policy.

Saving a payment method does not independently authorize Local Blast to charge an undisclosed subscription amount or an unapproved purchase.

3.5 Limited Access Before Membership Activation

Merchants who complete registration and successfully pay the Merchant Deposit may receive access to the Business Command Center before their paid membership is activated.

During this period, available features may include business profile setup, account management, onboarding, and other preparatory functions.

Deposit-paid Merchants cannot create, schedule, publish, or distribute active Business Blast campaigns until their membership is activated and the relevant features are enabled.

Pre-activation access does not guarantee:

• Immediate access to all Platform features.
• A specific Membership Activation date.
• Access to a particular geographical market.
• A minimum number of available Consumers.
• Immediate distribution of promotional campaigns.

Local Blast may restrict pre-activation access to the functionality necessary to complete onboarding.

3.6 Membership Activation

Local Blast controls the approval and activation of Merchant memberships.

Membership Activation may depend on:

• Completion of the registration process.
• Successful payment of the deposit.
• Completion of applicable business verification.
• Availability of the Platform in the Merchant's geographical area.
• Completion of required onboarding.
• Readiness of the applicable Merchant subscription services.

Local Blast may approve, delay, or decline Membership Activation.

A Merchant's subscription billing period will not begin solely because the deposit has been paid.

Before activation, the Merchant will be informed of the applicable membership plan, recurring subscription price, and billing start date.

Local Blast will obtain any additional payment authorization required when the applicable subscription terms differ materially from those previously accepted.

Merchants enrolled under a promotional offer that expressly conditions billing on the availability of active local Consumers will retain that activation condition.

3.7 Membership Plans and Subscription Pricing

Local Blast offers Merchant subscription plans with different available features, usage allowances, campaign capabilities, and geographical targeting options.

The applicable subscription price and features are determined by the plan or promotional offer accepted by the Merchant.

Current membership pricing and available plans may be published on the Local Blast website, displayed during registration, or communicated through an approved written offer.

Local Blast may modify its generally available membership plans, features, and pricing.

Changes to generally available pricing do not automatically override an existing contractual price guarantee or a previously accepted promotional rate.

If the price of a Merchant's selected plan changes before activation, Local Blast will disclose the updated price and obtain any required authorization before charging the Merchant.

3.8 Founders Legacy and Early-Adopter Memberships

Local Blast may offer limited Founders Legacy memberships or other promotional subscriptions to qualifying early-adopter businesses.

Where the applicable Founders Legacy offer expressly provides a $99.00 monthly rate for the life of the qualifying membership, Local Blast will honor that rate according to the accepted promotional terms.

A qualifying Founders Legacy rate remains applicable for the duration of the Merchant's qualifying, uninterrupted active membership, subject to the terms of the accepted offer.

A voluntary cancellation does not automatically preserve eligibility for the same promotional rate upon a later registration.

The Merchant's applicable Founders benefits, geographical eligibility, and onboarding requirements are determined by the offer accepted during enrollment.

A deposit submitted through a qualifying Founders Legacy registration offer will be applied toward the first paid subscription invoice unless the accepted offer expressly provides otherwise.

Where a Founders offer conditions paid activation on the availability of active Consumers near the Merchant's business, Local Blast will honor that condition.

Unless expressly included in the applicable promotional offer or a separate written agreement, a Merchant Deposit does not guarantee exclusive geographical territory or prevent other businesses from participating in the same market.

Previously accepted Founders agreements and promotional commitments remain applicable according to their terms and are not automatically revoked by publication of these revised Terms.

If Local Blast cannot accept a Merchant into an advertised promotional program after collecting the related deposit, the Merchant may elect to receive a refund rather than enroll in a different plan.

3.9 Automatic Renewal and Recurring Billing

Unless a different arrangement is expressly accepted, Merchant subscriptions are billed monthly.

Following Membership Activation, the subscription renews automatically at the applicable monthly rate until canceled.

The $99.00 deposit credit is applied to the first paid invoice as described in Section 3.2.

Subsequent subscription invoices will be charged to the authorized payment method according to the Merchant's billing schedule.

The Merchant authorizes Local Blast to initiate these recurring charges in accordance with the billing terms accepted during registration or subscription activation.

If a payment fails, Local Blast may retry the payment, request an updated payment method, or suspend paid features while the account remains unpaid.

Any change to the recurring subscription price will be disclosed before it takes effect. A change requiring the Merchant's affirmative authorization will not be charged without that authorization.

3.10 Subscription Cancellation

Merchants may request cancellation of their active monthly subscription at any time.

Cancellation requests may be submitted in writing to:

admin@localblastapp.com

Where an authorized self-service cancellation function is available in the Business Command Center, Merchants may also use that function.

For monthly subscriptions, cancellation will ordinarily take effect at the end of the current paid billing period.

A cancellation request received before the next renewal charge will prevent that renewal charge, subject to any payment already initiated before the request was received.

Local Blast will confirm the effective cancellation date.

Merchants remain responsible for legitimate outstanding charges incurred before cancellation takes effect.

Cancellation does not automatically entitle the Merchant to a refund for the current paid billing period.

A Merchant who wishes to cancel before Membership Activation may request cancellation and a deposit refund under Section 3.3.

3.11 Subscription Refunds

Unless otherwise required by law or an applicable written agreement, monthly subscription fees are non-refundable for billing periods that have already begun.

Local Blast does not ordinarily provide prorated refunds for unused portions of an active monthly billing period.

If an annual prepaid subscription is offered, its cancellation and refund provisions will be disclosed as part of the applicable annual subscription agreement.

Any annual-plan refund rights expressly provided in an earlier accepted agreement will remain applicable to that agreement.

Nothing in this section limits refunds required by law or other remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded.

3.12 Zero-Revenue-Share Policy

Local Blast operates its standard Merchant advertising service on a subscription model rather than a percentage-of-sales model.

Local Blast does not take a commission or percentage of a Merchant's in-store sales generated through a Blast Pass.

Merchants retain their customer sales revenue.

Merchants are responsible for the discounts, complimentary products, or other promotional benefits they voluntarily offer.

Any applicable taxes, payment processing fees for the Merchant's own sales, and ordinary operating costs remain the Merchant's responsibility.

3.13 No Guaranteed Marketing Results

Local Blast provides a platform for promoting local offers to eligible Consumers.

Local Blast does not guarantee:

• A specific number of impressions or notifications.
• A minimum number of Blast Pass claims.
• A minimum number of redemptions.
• A specific amount of additional revenue.
• A particular return on investment.
• A guaranteed number of new customers.
• A specific reduction in other advertising expenses.

Campaign performance depends on factors including Consumer availability, geographical coverage, promotional attractiveness, operating hours, competition, and User engagement.

Merchants acknowledge that purchasing a subscription does not guarantee particular commercial results.

4. MERCHANT CAMPAIGNS AND PROMOTIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES

4.1 Merchant Control of Offers

Merchants are responsible for the promotional offers they create and publish through the Platform.

Subject to their membership plan and available Platform features, Merchants may configure:

• The promotional offer and its conditions.
• The number of available Blast Passes.
• The applicable redemption period.
• Geographical targeting.
• Campaign timing.
• Other available promotional settings.

Merchants must ensure that their promotions are truthful, accurate, and capable of being fulfilled.

4.2 Honoring Valid Blast Passes

Merchants agree to honor valid Blast Passes presented by Consumers in accordance with the applicable offer terms.

Merchants must clearly disclose material restrictions before Consumers claim a promotional offer.

These restrictions may include redemption deadlines, eligible products, purchase requirements, availability limitations, and other relevant conditions.

Merchants may not introduce undisclosed restrictions after a valid Blast Pass has been claimed.

4.3 Merchant Responsibility for Fulfillment

The Merchant providing an offer is responsible for fulfilling that offer.

Local Blast is a technology and promotional distribution platform. It is not the seller of the Merchant's underlying products or services.

Any purchases made at the Merchant's establishment are transactions between the Consumer and the Merchant.

The Merchant is responsible for product quality, service delivery, applicable warranties, sales taxes, and legally required refunds.

4.4 Legal Compliance

Merchants must ensure that their campaigns, advertisements, products, and services comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.

This includes laws governing advertising, consumer protection, pricing, promotional offers, and regulated products.

Merchants offering age-restricted products or services must independently verify customer eligibility and comply with applicable legal restrictions.

Local Blast may reject or remove promotional content that violates these Terms or applicable laws.

4.5 Campaign Suspension or Removal

Local Blast may suspend or remove a Merchant campaign if it reasonably determines that the campaign:

1. Contains materially false or misleading information.
2. Violates applicable laws.
3. Creates a safety or security risk.
4. Violates these Terms.
5. Involves a Merchant that fails to honor valid offers.
6. Threatens the integrity or operation of the Platform.

Where appropriate, Local Blast may provide an opportunity to correct the issue.

5. BLAST PASS AND DIGITAL WALLET RULES

5.1 Claiming Blast Passes

Consumers may claim available Blast Passes through the Platform.

Each Blast Pass is subject to its displayed availability, quantity, expiration, and redemption conditions.

Claiming a Blast Pass does not constitute the purchase of the Merchant's underlying product or service.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, Blast Passes are promotional instruments and have no independent cash value.

5.2 Claim Limits

Local Blast may impose limits on the number of active Blast Passes a Consumer may hold.

Unless the Platform displays a different applicable limit, Consumers may hold up to three active, unredeemed Blast Passes at a time and one active Blast Pass per participating business.

Additional restrictions may apply to specific promotions.

5.3 Expiration and Redemption

Each Blast Pass includes an expiration date or countdown timer.

The redemption period may be established by the Merchant or applicable Platform settings.

Many promotions are designed for same-day or short-term redemption, but the specific expiration time displayed for the individual Blast Pass controls.

An expired Blast Pass is no longer valid for redemption.

Consumers are responsible for reviewing the applicable offer conditions before visiting a business.

5.4 Inventory Reclamation

Local Blast may use automated inventory management to release expired or unredeemed Blast Pass inventory.

Where supported, promotional inventory associated with an expired pass may become available for redistribution through the applicable campaign.

Inventory reclamation is subject to Merchant settings, campaign expiration, and Platform functionality.

Local Blast does not guarantee that reclaimed inventory will automatically generate additional claims or redemptions.

5.5 Prohibited Blast Pass Activity

Consumers may not:

• Sell or transfer Blast Passes without authorization.
• Create multiple accounts to circumvent claim limits.
• Fraudulently redeem or duplicate Blast Passes.
• Manipulate inventory availability.
• Use automated systems to claim offers without authorization.
• Misrepresent redemption activity.

Local Blast may cancel improperly obtained Blast Passes and restrict accounts involved in fraudulent activity.

5.6 Consumer and Merchant Disputes

Any dispute involving a Merchant's products, services, offer fulfillment, or an in-store purchase should initially be directed to the Merchant.

Consumers may report an invalid or unfulfilled Blast Pass to Local Blast through the Platform's support options.

Local Blast may review the report and take appropriate action under these Terms.

6. BLAST COINS, POWER-UPS, AND GAMIFIED FEATURES

6.1 Nature of Blast Coins

Where available, Blast Coins are virtual, non-monetary rewards used within the Platform.

Blast Coins:

• Have no cash value.
• Cannot be exchanged for real currency.
• Do not earn interest.
• Are not legal tender.
• Are not transferable unless expressly permitted.
• Do not constitute personal property.

Blast Coins may only be used for eligible features and rewards made available through the Platform.

6.2 Earning Blast Coins

Consumers may earn Blast Coins through qualifying activities, including eligible redemptions, referrals, community participation, or promotional events.

Applicable reward amounts and eligibility conditions will be displayed within the Platform or the relevant promotional offer.

Local Blast may modify the structure of its rewards program prospectively.

6.3 Power-Ups and Other Rewards

Blast Coins may be redeemable for certain Platform enhancements where those features are available.

Examples may include messaging enhancements, eligible communication extensions, and additional location-based features.

Availability, costs, and functionality are determined by the applicable Platform settings.

References to a feature do not guarantee that the feature is available to every account.

6.4 Claim Jail and Abuse Prevention

Local Blast may employ automated or manual systems to identify patterns of excessive claiming, non-redemption, fraudulent activity, or misuse.

These measures may include temporary claim restrictions, commonly referred to as Claim Jail.

Where implemented, a temporary restriction may prevent a Consumer from claiming additional Blast Passes for a specified period.

Local Blast may adjust applicable abuse-prevention thresholds and restrictions to protect Merchants and legitimate Users.

6.5 Reward Program Changes

Local Blast may modify, suspend, or discontinue optional rewards and gamification features.

Where reasonably practicable, Local Blast will provide notice of material changes affecting existing rewards.

Nothing in this section affects any non-waivable rights that Users may have under applicable law.

7. COMMUNITY FEATURES AND CONTENT MODERATION

7.1 Community Blasts and Communications

Where available, Community Blasts allow Users to communicate with other eligible Users within designated geographical areas.

Community features may include temporary messages, location-based discussions, or related communication functionality.

The geographical reach and availability of these features are determined by Platform settings.

7.2 Temporary Content

Certain community content may automatically expire or disappear from the User-facing interface after a specified period.

Expiration from the interface does not necessarily mean that all associated records are immediately deleted from every system.

Local Blast may retain information for legitimate operational, security, legal, backup, or abuse-prevention purposes in accordance with its Privacy Policy.

7.3 Prohibited Content

Users and Merchants may not publish or distribute content that:

1. Promotes illegal activities or the unlawful sale of controlled substances.
2. Contains threats, harassment, hate speech, or unlawful discriminatory content.
3. Promotes sexual exploitation or other prohibited sexually explicit material.
4. Constitutes fraud, spam, impersonation, or intentionally misleading advertising.
5. Violates another person's intellectual property or privacy rights.
6. Attempts to facilitate unauthorized access to the Platform.
7. Otherwise violates applicable law or these Terms.

7.4 Automated and Manual Moderation

Local Blast may use automated systems, including AI-assisted content filtering, to identify content that potentially violates these Terms.

Local Blast may also use manual review when appropriate.

We may block, remove, or restrict prohibited content.

Automated moderation systems are not guaranteed to identify every violation or to operate without error.

7.5 Account Restrictions

Local Blast may issue warnings, restrict features, suspend accounts, or terminate access in response to violations.

The action taken may depend on the severity, frequency, and nature of the violation.

Where appropriate, affected Users may contact support to request review of a moderation decision.

8. PRIVACY, DATA SECURITY, AND LOCATION SERVICES

8.1 Privacy Policy

Local Blast's collection, use, storage, and disclosure of personal information are described in its Privacy Policy.

The Privacy Policy is available at:

https://www.localblastapp.com/privacy-policy 

8.2 Location Information

Local Blast uses location information to support geographical discovery, local offer distribution, and other location-based features.

Depending on the permissions granted by the User, this information may include approximate or precise device location.

Background location information will be collected only where the relevant functionality is enabled and applicable permissions have been granted.

Users may manage location permissions through their device settings.

Disabling location services may restrict or prevent access to certain Platform features.

8.3 Merchant Access to Consumer Information

Local Blast may provide Merchants with information reasonably necessary to operate campaigns, validate redemptions, and review promotional performance.

This may include aggregated campaign activity, claim counts, redemption counts, and limited information needed to validate a presented Blast Pass.

Merchants do not receive unrestricted access to Consumers' precise location histories or personal account information.

Any information voluntarily provided by a Consumer directly to a Merchant during an in-store transaction is subject to the Merchant's own applicable privacy practices.

8.4 Payment Security

Merchant payment information is processed through Stripe or another designated payment processor.

Local Blast uses payment processing integrations and appropriate security measures to manage authorized transactions.

No electronic system can guarantee absolute security.

8.5 Account Deletion

Users may request account deletion through available Platform settings or by contacting Local Blast.

Deletion requests will be processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.

Certain information may be retained where necessary to comply with legal obligations, maintain legitimate transaction records, prevent fraud, or resolve outstanding disputes.

8.6 Merchant Business Data

Merchants are responsible for ensuring that business information and promotional content submitted to the Platform are accurate and lawfully provided.

Merchants may not upload or disclose personal information they are not authorized to share.

9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

9.1 Local Blast Intellectual Property

The Platform and its original software, code, algorithms, interfaces, graphics, branding, designs, and proprietary technology are owned by Local Blast LLC or its applicable licensors.

This includes Local Blast's rights in its proprietary products and features, including Local Blast Pulse, Blast Buddy, and the Business Command Center.

These rights are protected to the extent applicable under copyright, trademark, trade secret, patent, and other intellectual property laws.

9.2 Limited License

Subject to these Terms, Local Blast grants Users and Merchants a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Platform for its intended purposes.

This license does not transfer ownership of any Local Blast intellectual property.

9.3 Restrictions

Except as permitted by applicable law or expressly authorized by Local Blast, Users and Merchants may not:

• Copy or commercially reproduce the Platform.
• Sell, sublicense, or redistribute proprietary Platform components.
• Attempt to access protected systems without authorization.
• Reverse engineer proprietary technology in violation of applicable law.
• Misuse Local Blast branding or intellectual property.
• Use the Platform to develop a competing service through unauthorized extraction of proprietary data or technology.

9.4 Merchant Content

Merchants retain their ownership rights in the original content they submit to the Platform.

By submitting content, Merchants grant Local Blast a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, reproduce, display, distribute, and process that content as reasonably necessary to provide the Platform and distribute authorized campaigns.

Merchants represent that they have the rights necessary to grant this license.

10. SERVICE AVAILABILITY, DISCLAIMERS, AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

10.1 Platform Availability

Local Blast strives to provide reliable service but does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation.

The Platform may experience maintenance, technical failures, third-party service interruptions, or temporary unavailability.

Local Blast may modify or discontinue individual Platform features, subject to applicable contractual commitments and legal obligations.

10.2 No Warranty

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Platform is provided on an "as-is" and "as-available" basis.

Local Blast disclaims warranties not expressly provided in these Terms, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement, to the extent such disclaimers are permitted by law.

Nothing in this section excludes warranties or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

10.3 Third-Party Businesses

Local Blast does not independently guarantee the quality, safety, legality, or availability of products or services offered by participating Merchants.

Merchants are responsible for their own products, services, facilities, and transactions.

Local Blast is not responsible for the conduct of third parties outside its reasonable control.

10.4 Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Local Blast LLC and its managers, members, employees, and agents will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the Platform.

This includes, where legally permissible, lost profits, lost business opportunities, lost data, or business interruptions.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Local Blast's aggregate liability arising from the Platform or these Terms will not exceed the greater of $100.00 or the amount paid by the claimant to Local Blast during the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

This limitation does not reduce Local Blast's express obligation to return an eligible Merchant Deposit or exclude liability that cannot legally be limited, including liability for fraud, willful misconduct, or other non-excludable obligations.

10.5 No Guarantee of Consumer Participation

Merchants acknowledge that Consumer participation, Platform adoption, and campaign performance depend on multiple factors outside Local Blast's control.

Local Blast does not guarantee that the Platform will generate sufficient customer activity to offset the Merchant's subscription fees or other operating expenses.

11. INDEMNIFICATION

To the extent permitted by applicable law, Merchants agree to indemnify and hold harmless Local Blast LLC and its managers, members, employees, and agents from third-party claims, damages, liabilities, and reasonable costs arising from:

1. The Merchant's breach of these Terms.
2. The Merchant's unlawful, misleading, or unauthorized promotional content.
3. The Merchant's failure to honor a valid promotional offer.
4. The Merchant's products, services, or business operations.
5. The Merchant's violation of applicable laws or third-party rights.

This obligation applies only to the extent the relevant claim results from the Merchant's acts or omissions and does not require the Merchant to indemnify Local Blast for liability attributable to Local Blast's own unlawful conduct.

12. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

12.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable federal law or other mandatory legal provisions control.

12.2 Informal Dispute Resolution

Before initiating a formal legal proceeding, the parties agree to attempt to resolve disputes in good faith.

A party seeking resolution should provide written notice describing the dispute and the requested remedy.

Notices to Local Blast may be sent to:

admin@localblastapp.com

The parties will have thirty (30) days from receipt of the notice to attempt an informal resolution, unless they agree to a different period or applicable law requires otherwise.

12.3 Mediation

If informal resolution is unsuccessful, the parties agree to attempt non-binding mediation before proceeding to arbitration, except where an applicable legal right or procedural rule permits a claim to proceed without mediation.

Merchant mediation will take place in Tampa, Florida, or remotely if the parties agree.

Consumer mediation may take place remotely where appropriate.

12.4 Binding Arbitration

If the dispute remains unresolved, it will be submitted to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), except for claims eligible for small claims court or claims that applicable law permits to proceed in another forum.

Merchant disputes will be administered under the applicable AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules.

Consumer disputes will be administered under the applicable AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules where those rules apply.

Any applicable mobile application end-user license agreement may establish additional or different dispute resolution terms governing that application's use.

Arbitration proceedings will be conducted by a single arbitrator.

The location and manner of arbitration will be determined in accordance with the applicable AAA rules and governing law.

12.5 Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver

To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties agree that disputes subject to arbitration will be resolved on an individual basis rather than through class or representative arbitration.

The parties waive their right to a jury trial for disputes subject to a valid and enforceable arbitration agreement.

Nothing in this section waives rights that cannot lawfully be waived.

12.6 Arbitration Costs

Arbitration costs and administrative fees will be allocated according to the applicable AAA rules and governing law.

Any award of attorneys' fees must be authorized by applicable law or an enforceable agreement between the parties.

13. GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.1 Changes to These Terms

Local Blast may revise these Terms to reflect changes in its services, business operations, or applicable legal requirements.

The current version will be published at:

https://www.localblastapp.com/terms 

Material changes will be communicated where required by law or applicable contractual commitments.

Changes to these Terms will not automatically revoke existing contractual pricing guarantees, accrued refund rights, or other previously accepted commitments.

Where affirmative consent to revised terms is required, Local Blast will obtain that consent before applying the relevant changes.

13.2 Severability

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect to the extent permitted by law.

13.3 Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, applicable mobile application agreements, accepted Merchant subscription terms, and any separate written Merchant agreements, constitute the applicable agreement between the parties.

Where a separately accepted Merchant agreement or promotional offer expressly establishes different deposit, pricing, refund, or membership terms, that agreement or offer will control the conflicting provisions to the extent applicable.

13.4 No Waiver

Local Blast's failure to enforce a provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce that provision in the future.

13.5 Assignment

Users and Merchants may not transfer their accounts or contractual rights without Local Blast's prior written consent, except where otherwise permitted by law.

Local Blast may assign its rights and obligations in connection with a lawful merger, acquisition, reorganization, or transfer of its business, subject to applicable law and existing contractual obligations.

By registering for the Platform, you agree to receive electronic communications reasonably necessary to administer your account and provide the services.
