The dispute resolution provision also includes a class action waiver, which means that you agree to proceed with ARBITRATION OF any dispute individually and not as part of a class action. These Terms of Service also include a jury waiver. More information about the arbitration and class action waiver can be found in Section 12 below.

Welcome and thank you for your interest in Maven!
Maven Drive LLC (“Maven,” “we,” “our,” or “us”), provides a car sharing service that allows eligible and approved Maven users with active Maven Membership Agreements (“Members,” “you,” or “your”) to rent Maven vehicles (“Maven Vehicles”) and, where available, peer car sharing owner vehicles (“Peer Vehicles” and, together with Maven Vehicles, “Vehicles”) for hourly or daily use (“Trips”). These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement ("Agreement") between you and Maven governing your access to and use of our mobile application (the "Maven App") and all car sharing and other associated services (collectively, "Maven Services"). The Maven App and Maven Services together are collectively called “Maven Car Sharing.”
This Agreement also applies to and governs Maven Peer Car Sharing with additional Peer Terms of Service contained in Addendum A: Peer Program Addendum.
Our Privacy Statement outlines how we use and safeguard your information. You understand that by participating in Maven Car Sharing, you consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of your personally identifiable information and aggregate data described in our Privacy Statement, and to have your personally identifiable information collected, used, transferred to, and processed in the United States.
Where permitted by law, we may update, modify, or amend the terms of this Agreement from time to time during your participation by posting the updates on our website or otherwise making the updates available to you. It is your responsibility to frequently review the updates during your participation in Maven Car Sharing. You may cancel your participation in Maven Car Sharing at any time by providing notice to Member Experience or as otherwise provided in this Agreement.
The following summarizes the terms of this Agreement to which you agree:
· You will use Vehicles in a safe manner in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations and in compliance with this Agreement;
· You will maintain a valid driver’s license while participating in Maven Car Sharing;
· You will not permit non-Members to drive the Vehicle that is rented by you and you will be financially responsible if other Members drive the Vehicle that is rented by you;
· You consent to a background check to verify your eligibility to participate in Maven Car Sharing prior to and from time to time during your participation;
· You will not drive the Vehicle outside the United States;
· You will pay all fees (defined and described in Section 6 below) and any other amounts you owe under Maven Car Sharing. We will charge those fees and other amounts to the payment method you provide and associate with your Maven account (“Account”);
· You can review the estimated reservation costs before confirming your reservation;
· To the extent permitted by law, the Vehicle maintains an active wireless connection and provides certain data to us. You consent to this connection and to our collection, use, and sharing of data describing the Vehicle and how you are operating it, including data describing the Vehicle location, as described in our Privacy Statement;
· OnStar services (described below in Section 8) are active in the Vehicle and are governed by the OnStar User Terms and Privacy Statement;
· For an additional, daily charge, Maven may offer the option to purchase an optional vehicle protection package, called a “Damage Waiver,” to reduce or eliminate fees associated with damages to your Vehicle. Before purchasing a Damage Waiver, we recommend determining whether you already have rental vehicle collision coverage through your credit card or personal automobile insurance policy that would apply to and cover fees associated with Vehicle damage. Maven’s Damage Waiver is not insurance and you have no obligation to purchase a Damage Waiver to reserve a Vehicle.
· You are responsible for any loss of or damage to the Vehicle during your reservation that is caused by you or your passengers up to the full cost of damages if you have not complied with this Agreement, as permitted under state law; and

3.4. When you book a reservation, we will pre-authorize a charge to your payment method on file (the “Pre-Authorization Charge”). If your payment method rejects this Pre-Authorization Charge, your reservation may be cancelled. If you book the reservation within 24 hours of the start of your Trip, we will incur a Pre-Authorization Charge immediately when you complete the booking. If you book the reservation 24 hours or more before the start of your Trip, you will incur a Pre-Authorization Charge 24 hours before the start of your Trip. If you cancel your reservation at least 24 hours prior to the start of your Trip, you will be refunded the Pre-Authorization Charge.
3.5. Before your reservation start time, you will receive a message indicating when you can begin your Trip. Access to the Vehicle will be given at your reservation start time. The Maven App on your mobile device will act as the key to the Vehicle. You must have the mobile device you used to create the reservation inside the Vehicle to drive. You will lock and unlock the Vehicle using the Maven App. Your mobile device must be powered and fully functioning to access and start the Vehicle and to start and end your Trip.
3.6. At your reservation end time, you should return the Vehicle to the same location where you picked it up. Leaving the Vehicle somewhere other than where you picked it up may result in late fees or other charges. If the Vehicle is not returned to the proper location when your reservation ends, to the extent permitted by law, we may disable and/or recover the Vehicle at your expense without notice to you.
3.7. To the extent permitted by law, we may disable and/or recover a Vehicle at your expense without notice to you if the Vehicle is abandoned or used in violation of law or this Agreement.
3.9. If your reserved Vehicle is returned and your Trip is ended prior to the reservation end time, you will not be refunded for unused hours. If your reserved Vehicle is returned and your usage fees are less than the Pre-Authorization Charge, we will return the difference to your payment method.

4.3. Emergency assistance. In an EMERGENCY, you must press the red OnStar button for assistance or call 911. Further instructions regarding incident and crash procedures are in the glovebox.
4.4. Fuel. For hourly and daily Maven Vehicles, fuel is free to you while using the Maven Vehicle. Our intention is to make each Maven Vehicle available to you with at least ¼ tank of fuel. If you need fuel while out with the Maven Vehicle there is a fuel card in the Maven Vehicle. Fuel cards may only be used for the Maven Vehicle you have reserved. You are required to return the Maven Vehicle with at least ¼ tank of fuel or you will be charged a $30 low fuel fee plus applicable taxes. Any additional fuel, including that required to ensure the Maven Vehicle is returned with ¼ tank of fuel, is your responsibility. Any receipts for fuel must be dated, time stamped, and itemized for reimbursement. Any misuse of fuel cards may lead to the suspension or termination of your Account; you will reimburse us if you use a fuel card for any expenditure other than fuel for the Maven Vehicle as authorized above. For fuel in Peer Vehicles, see Section A4.7.

If you have reserved a BOLT EV Vehicle and if you choose to use the charging cord to charge the Vehicle at home, it is recommended that a certified electrician inspect any outlet prior to using it to charge a BOLT EV. You are solely responsible for any damage to your household outlet.
4.6. Pick-up and return location. At the start of your Trip, the Vehicle will be available for you in a location designated in the Maven App. You must return the Vehicle to the rental location you have chosen within the Maven App. We reserve the right to charge for not returning the Vehicle to the same rental location where you picked up the Vehicle.

Please note that the only situation where we would allow a firearm while using the app is if you are transporting your firearm in accordance with the Transportation Security Administration rules for transporting firearms and ammunition. Among other requirements, that means your firearm must be unloaded and locked in a hard-sided container in the trunk of the Vehicle. All parts, including magazines, clips, ammunition, and bolts and firing pins must also be transported in the trunk of the Vehicle. Failure to comply with this policy may lead to Account deactivation.
5.1. You agree that you are responsible for the following:
5.1.1 Keeping your personal information, including payment information, up-to-date within your Account. We may validate such updated information to verify your continued membership.

You must click “End Trip” in the Maven App upon returning the Vehicle and must return the Vehicle to the location where you picked it up as designated in the Maven App. Failure to do so may result in late fees.

Where permitted by law, you authorize us to charge you for the actual cost of repair or replacement of lost or damaged items such as glass, mirrors, and antenna, as part of the rental charges upon return. If the Vehicle is stolen and not recovered you will pay us the Vehicle’s fair market value before it was stolen.

You are not responsible for normal wear and tear on the Vehicle. Before each reservation please check the car inside and out and report any damage.
9.3. Authorization to Recover.

A5. STATE CAR SHARING DISCLOSURES
A5.1. California Car Sharing Disclosures under Cal. Ins. Code § 11580.24. You agree, by executing this agreement, that your rental of any vehicle through the Maven program will be used only for personal use. You agree not to rent the vehicle for use in a commercial manner.

In the event of loss or injury that occurs during the time period when the vehicle is under your operation and control, Maven assumes all liability of the owner of the vehicle. Maven will continue to be liable until the vehicle has been returned to the designated location at which the rental terminates, or the earlier of either the expiration of the rental period, the intent to terminate the rental period has been communicated to Maven by you, or until he owner has taken control of the vehicle.
A5.2. Maryland Car Sharing Disclosures under Maryland Insurance Code § 19-520. As detailed elsewhere in this Agreement, Maven reserves the right to seek indemnification from you for economic loss sustained by Maven as a result of a breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by you. The motor vehicle liability insurance policy issued to you does not provide a defense or indemnification for any claim asserted by Maven as a result of a breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by you. The insurance coverage offered by Maven is only in effect during each individual car sharing period. For any use of the motor vehicle that exceeds the termination time, you should contact your insurance carrier or the insurance carrier of the owner of the motor vehicle about insurance coverage. Maven’s motor vehicle liability insurance policy may be exclusive for the owner of the vehicle, and is primary for you, as the driver of the vehicle. The insurance coverage may be secondary for you, if the vehicle is used as a replacement vehicle, as defined in section 18.5-102(a)(2)(i) of the Maryland Transportation Article.

In connection with your application or continued eligibility to be a driver on the Maven Drive LLC platform owned by Maven Drive LLC, its subsidiaries, affiliates, other related entities, successors, and/or assigns (collectively or individually, as appropriate, the “Company”), the Company intends to procure, as defined under California law, an investigative consumer report. With respect to any investigative consumer report from an investigative consumer reporting agency (“ICRA”), the Company may investigate the information contained in your application and other background information about you, including but not limited to obtaining a criminal record report, obtaining your driving record, obtaining information about your character, general reputation, personal characteristics and mode of living, verifying references, work history, your social security number, your educational achievements, licensure, certifications, and other information about you, including interviewing people who are knowledgeable about you. The results of this report may be used as a factor in making initial or continued decisions regarding your eligibility to be a driver on the Maven Drive LLC platform. The source of any investigative consumer report (as that term is defined under California law and as explained more fully above) and the ICRA will be American Driving Records (American Driving Records, Inc., Attn: Consumer Request, 2860 Gold Tailings Court, Rancho Cordova, CA 95670, (800) 766-6877, extension 7) (which provides report information relating to driving records/motor vehicle information) and/or Sterling Backcheck (Sterling Backcheck, Inc., Dispute Resolution Department, 6111 Oak Tree Boulevard, Independence, OH 44131; 888.889.5248; disputeresolution@sterlingbackcheck.com) (which provides report information relating to all other types of background, including criminal records).

Under California Civil Code § 1786.22, you are entitled to a visual inspection of files maintained on you by an ICRA, as follows: (1) In person, if you appear in person and furnish proper identification, during normal business hours and on reasonable notice. A copy of your file shall also be available to you for a fee not to exceed the actual costs of duplication services provided; (2) By certified mail, if you make a written request, with proper identification, for copies to be sent to a specified addressee. An ICRA complying with requests for certified mailings under the California Code shall not be liable for disclosures to third parties caused by mishandling of mail after such mailings leave the ICRA; or (3) A summary of all information contained in your files and required to be provided by the California Code shall be provided to you by telephone, if you have made a written request, with proper identification for telephone disclosure, and the toll charges, if any, for the telephone call are prepaid by you or charged directly to you.
“Proper identification” means information generally deemed sufficient to identify you, which includes documents such as a valid driver’s license, social security account number, military identification card, and credit cards.
