5. DESCRIPTION OF THE PLATFORM

WalkRideRoll is a mobile application that allows users to register traveller profiles on organised routes for bus, walking or cycling transport, managed by schools, organisations or specific institutions. These profiles can correspond to both minors and adults, and their linking to the routes is done from the account of the responsible user. In the case of minors, the profiles include only basic information such as name, age and the school or organisation to which they are linked. The creation of profiles of minors on the platform must be carried out exclusively by their parents, legal guardians or authorised representatives of the school or organisation concerned. These responsible parties guarantee that they have the necessary authority and consent to register the minor and link them to the organised routes. WalkRideRoll merely provides the technology necessary to facilitate this management and does not intervene in the direct relationship between schools, organisations and users responsible for minors.

The routes available on the platform are organised and managed directly by the schools or organisations, who determine the details of each route and allow the registration of profiles through the application. WalkRideRoll's functionality is geared towards optimising the planning and participation in collective transport activities, ensuring an efficient and structured management environment for all parties involved.

6. REGISTRATION AND PROFILE CREATION

The WalkRideRoll platform requires users to register and create an account to access its functionalities. This registration process is available to parents, legal guardians, responsible adults and authorised staff of participating organisations. Once registered, the account allows users to manage profiles, register travellers on organised routes and monitor activities related to bus, walking and cycling. Users are responsible for providing valid and accurate information during registration and for maintaining the confidentiality of their login credentials. Each account is personal and non-transferable, and any activity performed from the account is the responsibility of the account holder. Should a user wish to delete their account, they may do so through the settings available in their profile within the WalkRideRoll platform or by sending a request to the contact information of SCY, the entity in charge of the operation of the platform. Once the request is received, SCY will process the deletion of the account and associated data in a secure manner and in accordance with applicable regulations. However, some data may need to be retained for a limited period due to legal or administrative obligations before being completely deleted. WalkRideRoll and SCY reserve the right to monitor the use of accounts to ensure compliance with the terms and conditions and, in cases of non-compliance or misuse, may suspend or delete accounts without notice.

7. ROUTE CREATION

The WalkRideRoll platform offers users the possibility to register travellers and create organised routes for bus, walking or cycling transport, facilitating the management and supervision of collective transport activities. The routes are organised and managed directly by schools, organisations or authorised institutions, who have control over the creation and administration of the routes. The profiles registered in these routes are linked to the respective organisations, which are responsible for defining the conditions and operability of the routes.

Organisations can appoint supervisory staff to perform operational tasks, such as check-in and check-out of passengers, recording when they board and alight from the assigned transport. This process enables efficient control of passenger movements, helping to ensure passenger safety during the journey. In addition, the platform allows senior managers, designated by organisations, to access registration information for multiple routes, including those managed by other organisations, if granted that level of access.

WalkRideRoll provides the necessary technological tools to facilitate these functions, but does not intervene in the direct management of the routes or in the operational supervision, which is the sole responsibility of the participating organisations. The use of these functionalities must be in accordance with the terms and conditions of the platform, always respecting the privacy and security of the registered profiles. The platform is designed to optimise route planning and monitoring, promoting an organised and efficient environment for all users.

8. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

The WalkRideRoll platform, developed by Erigin Creacions SL (hereinafter, ‘Erigin’) and operated by ‘SCY Society for Children and Youth of BC’ (hereinafter, ‘SCY’), is provided as a technological tool to facilitate the enrolment of travellers in routes organised and managed by participating schools, organisations or institutions. WalkRideRoll acts solely as a technical support for these activities, without intervening directly in the creation, administration or operational oversight of the routes, nor in the interaction between organisations and end users. Therefore, neither Erigin nor SCY assume any responsibility for the management, safety, punctuality, effectiveness, cancellation or other aspects related to the organised routes.

The participating organisations are solely responsible for the creation and administration of the routes, the appointment of supervisors for the check-in and check-out of travellers, and the general supervision of the activities related to the routes. Furthermore, any problems, incidents or disputes arising during the use of the routes, including damages, losses, delays, misunderstandings or any other transport-related inconvenience, are the sole responsibility of the organisations managing the routes and not of SCY or Erigin.

Erigin, as platform owner, and SCY, as platform operator, do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness or uninterrupted availability of the WalkRideRoll platform. Neither are they responsible for technical errors, service interruptions, loss of data or any other inconvenience affecting the use of the platform. Users and organisations are responsible for ensuring the proper use of the platform and the accuracy of the information provided. Any damage, loss or harm resulting from the improper use of the platform or the information entered is the sole responsibility of the users or organisations involved.

WalkRideRoll also assumes no responsibility for any conflicts or problems that may arise between users and organisations, including those related to the registration of profiles, monitoring of travellers, or access to route information. The platform does not validate or verify information provided by users or organisations and does not guarantee that such information is error-free or completely accurate.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Erigin and SCY exclude all liability for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, punitive or any other damages of any nature whatsoever arising out of the use or inability to use the platform, including, without limitation, economic loss, business interruption or damage to reputation. By using the platform, users and organisations acknowledge and accept these terms and exonerate Erigin and SCY from any liability related to the management of routes and profiles registered on the platform.

16. SEVERABILITY

If any section of these terms is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired. Our failure to enforce or delay in enforcing any provision of these terms at any time does not waive our right to enforce the same or any other provision in the future.

18. TERMINATION

SCY may take this action without prior notice, and the User will automatically lose all rights to access and use the platform. Furthermore, SCY shall not be liable for any loss of data or information associated with the user's account. In case of non-compliance by SCY: If SCY fails to comply with its obligations under the agreed terms and conditions, the User shall be entitled to terminate the agreement and stop using the platform. The user shall notify SCY in writing of the breach and allow a reasonable time for SCY to remedy the situation. If SCY does not remedy the breach within the set period, the user may proceed with the termination of the agreement. Termination of the agreement shall not release either party from any obligations and liabilities that have arisen prior to the date of termination. Continued use of the platform after termination of the agreement by either party shall imply acceptance of the conditions set forth in the terms and conditions in effect at that time.

19. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Any dispute, claim or controversy arising between a user and SCY in connection with these terms and conditions, the use of the platform or the services provided, shall be resolved exclusively through alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, including mediation and arbitration, as detailed below. Firstly, both parties agree to make every effort to resolve any disputes informally. This includes direct communication between the parties involved to identify and address concerns or disagreements quickly and effectively. Users may contact SCY through designated support channels to raise any disputes. The company undertakes to respond within a reasonable timeframe, giving the opportunity to resolve the issue without resorting to formal procedures. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute informally within thirty (30) days of initial notification of the dispute, the dispute will be submitted to mediation. The mediation shall be conducted before a neutral mediator selected by mutual agreement of the parties. If the parties are unable to agree on a mediator within an additional fifteen (15) days, a mediator shall be appointed through a recognised mediation agency. The costs of the mediation shall be shared equally between the parties, and the mediation shall be conducted in English and at a mutually agreed location or, if both parties agree, through a virtual platform. If mediation does not result in a mutually satisfactory resolution, the dispute shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the commercial arbitration rules of the Canadian Arbitration Association (CAA) or a similar internationally recognised body. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator, who shall be selected in accordance with the rules of the arbitration body. The place of arbitration shall be Canada, in a city agreed upon by the parties or designated by the arbitration body if no agreement is reached. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve the dispute, including determining the applicability and validity of these dispute resolution terms. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding on both parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Unless prohibited by applicable law, the parties agree to waive any right to bring the dispute in court or to participate in a class action. This dispute resolution clause does not prevent SCY from seeking injunctive or equitable relief in the event of infringement of intellectual property rights, misuse of the platform or any act that may cause irreparable harm, in which case it may go directly to a court of competent jurisdiction without exhausting alternative dispute resolution mechanisms. By agreeing to these terms, users expressly waive any right to a jury trial and agree that all disputes will be resolved in accordance with the procedures set out in this clause, with the aim of minimising the costs and time associated with formal litigation. The parties assume their own costs associated with mediation and arbitration, unless otherwise agreed or specifically provided by the arbitrator.

20. APPLICABLE LAW AND JURISDICTION

These terms and conditions shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Canada. Any dispute relating to these terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Canada. This applies unless binding arbitration is agreed to in the applicable section.
