Depending on the use case and if you have permitted us to do so, you hereby authorize RRMC NA to access third-party sites or apps, as your agent, to retrieve your information, where appropriate, as part of the Site. Unless and until these Terms are terminated, you grant RRMC NA the right to access information at third-party sites or apps on your behalf. Third-party sites or apps may rely on the authorizations granted by you or through your account.

You grant to RRMC NA the right to access third-party sites or apps to retrieve or use your information or Materials, as described herein, for the delivery of the Site, for the Site Content, and for other purposes described in these Terms. The licenses, user obligations, and authorizations described herein are ongoing. 

4. Your personal information is subject to our privacy policy.

We will process your personal information in accordance with our RRMC NA Privacy Policy.

5. We may offer you a membership in our discretion subject to fees.

At our discretion, we may offer you a membership to Whispers App ( “App” or “Whispers”). Membership is subject to the Terms.

Whispers is a members club presented by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and represented by the Spirit of Ecstasy that gives access to a luxury ecosystem, consisting of a network of extraordinary people consuming and producing curated offerings powered by an intelligent platform. Membership of Whispers is intended to be exclusive and limited in number.

Each member contracts directly with RRMC NA in order to access Whispers. RRMC NA reserves the right to charge members a joining fee, annual subscription fee, or termination fee. RRMC NA may, in its sole discretion, amend or waive any fees or subscriptions from time to time. RRMC NA may notify members about such change at any time by posting changes to this App, or on a website or app that replaces the App, prior to the change becoming effective or by notifying you via your RRMC NA account, the App, or email prior to the effective date of the change. 

Membership fees shall be paid for upfront as an annual payment by a method approved by RRMC NA. Any joining fee and annual fee will be payable on joining. Life Partner memberships require a reduced membership rate fee.

Membership will renew automatically on each anniversary of joining unless terminated by either party three months prior to the renewal date. 

Failure of a member to pay the annual subscription fee or any installment thereof within one month of the due date after being notified by RRMC NA may result in their membership being terminated.

Membership at Whispers is entirely at the discretion of RRMC NA. RRMC NA reserves the right to restrict or terminate any member’s access to Whispers without notice or to cease provision of Whispers at any time in RRMC NA’s sole discretion. 

6. Membership requires an application and is subject to review.

In order to maintain the exclusivity of Whispers, RRMC NA has a membership committee (the “Membership Committee”) who may review every application for membership. The Membership Committee may meet regularly and contact applicants following the relevant meeting to let them know if their application has been accepted. The Membership Committee may, in its sole discretion, add applicants to a waiting list.

The admission of new members is at the sole discretion of the Membership Committee who reserves the right to decline any application for membership, for any reason or no reason, without giving any reason for doing so. The decision of the Membership Committee is final and without appeal. 

No membership fee is due until full membership has been granted.

RRMC NA may, in its sole discretion, terminate members, without notice, if the member no longer owns a Rolls-Royce vehicle. 

7. You may resign your membership.

If a member chooses to resign their membership (or their membership is cancelled part way through the year), any refund of membership fees on a pro-rata basis shall be at the sole discretion of RRMC NA. Due to the exclusivity of Whispers, a member who has resigned their membership may not be guaranteed re-admission.

8. You may use a delegate for your membership.

Whispers enables members to set up a delegate (that is, your personal assistant) to allow them to manage enquiries, bookings, and purchases on your behalf. Your delegate may then be contacted by RRMC NA or our Whispers partners in order to assist with answering your query or completing a transaction. It is your responsibility to fully inform your delegate prior to setting them up in the App.

Whispers enables members to contact one another directly should they choose to sign-up for this level of functionality. However, members must not approach, disturb, or solicit other members unless those members have indicated their willingness to participate in such interaction. Any contravention of this rule may result in suspension, restriction, or termination of membership without notice. 

9. Whispers is intended to be an exclusive, private social platform.

Whispers is an exclusive members club and as such has a strict no press policy. Members may be held accountable if they disclose, make negative statements about or identify other members, details of Whispers partners, or details of Whispers events in the public domain contemporaneously, whether in any press or social media, including, without limitation, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, TikTok and on any personal blogs. Any complaints made by members about inappropriate or unwanted social media posts may be considered a conduct issue. Any views, comments or opinions expressed by members in the media are not representative of the views of RRMC NA or any members of the BMW Group.

Whispers should travel only by word of mouth, as a whisper, shared amongst those in the know. The privacy of the members and exclusivity of the offering is of paramount importance. 

Members may upload images or media to their Whispers profile on the following conditions:

  • No offensive or inappropriate media or images may be uploaded (including, without limitation, nudity, self-injury, graphic violence, weapons, or drugs); 
  • Any images or media uploaded must either be owned by the member or the member must have express consent to share and be able to evidence such consent to RRMC NA upon request; and
  • Any images depicting individuals other than the member can only be shared with the express consent of those individuals, such consent to be evidenced to RRMC NA upon request. 

 

Members must treat each other with respect and consideration. Members must not harass, abuse, threaten, intimidate, or impersonate other members, or employees of RRMC NA. Any failure to comply with these conditions may be considered a breach of conduct as outlined below and may lead to suspension, restriction, or termination without notice.

10. You must comply with conduct rules.

Conduct by a member that is prejudicial to the reputation and character of RRMC may result in suspension or termination of membership without notice. Such conduct may include, for example, violent or abusive behavior, uploading of inappropriate media or images, or the communication of information concerning RRMC NA or Whispers affairs or members of Whispers to the media. A member whose membership has been terminated in such circumstances may not be permitted to rejoin, at RRMC NA’s sole discretion. A refund of the members’ subscription will be at the sole discretion of RRMC NA.

Every member binds themselves to abide by terms of membership, these Terms, and any relevant regulations of Whispers and RRMC NA at all times upon acceptance as a member. If RRMC NA considers that any member’s conduct either inside or outside of the parameters of Whispers is, at its sole discretion, contrary to the interests of RRMC NA or Whispers, RRMC NA may suspend or terminate that member’s membership for any reason or no reason, without giving any reason for doing so.

A member whose membership has been terminated may not be permitted to rejoin. A terminated member may not receive refunds except at RRMC NA’s sole discretion.

11. We may offer you access to offerings on the App.

Any services purchased by members through Whispers shall be provided directly by RRMC NA or by the relevant Whispers partner. The contract for such services shall be between the member and the relevant partner.

Members may offer items for sale within Whispers on an ad hoc basis. Such items must be offered in accordance with the Terms. 

All items to be offered for sale in the member area of Whispers will be subject to prior approval by RRMC NA before the listing can go live. Any transactions between members are private transactions and RRMC NA shall not process any payments for such transactions, nor have any obligations or liability for such transactions.

If a member wishes to offer items for sale on a regular basis, RRMC NA may invite that member to participate in the Whispers partnership programme, which requires entering into the partner terms. Any behavior in contravention with the Terms may result in suspension or termination of membership. 

12. We may provide you with RRMC NA CarData.

Depending on the capabilities of each vehicle, among other reasons, RRMC NA may offer its customers the opportunity to use RRMC NA CarData, a RRMC NA Rolls-Royce Connected service, to view selected information about their RRMC NA vehicles (“Vehicle Data”), in accordance with these Terms, the RRMC NA Privacy Policy, and the Rolls-Royce Connected Terms. RRMC NA CarData may offer RRMC NA customers (referred to as Primary Subscribers under the Rolls-Royce Connected Terms) the option of releasing (and subsequently modifying or canceling the release of) the data for transmission to third parties. Only the Primary Subscribers may use the RRMC NA CarData in this manner. Please note that cancelling or modifying transfers of CarData may adversely impact your agreements or arrangements with third parties that you have agreed to release your RRMC NA CarData.

In order to use RRMC NA CarData, you must have executed a Subscriber Agreement and the vehicle must be linked to that Subscriber Agreement account. You may only use, access, or release RRMC NA CarData during the term of the Subscriber Agreement. If the Subscriber Agreement for a particular vehicle is cancelled or terminated, further data transfers to third parties may stop. You are responsible for any third parties to which you release RRMC NA CarData. 

The quality and validity of the Vehicle Data provided via RRMC NA CarData depends, among other things, on the vehicle model, the control devices installed, internet availability and the frequency with which the customer makes use of RRMC NA Rolls-Royce Connected services.

39. You waive any jury trial and class action rights.

With respect to any dispute with RRMC NA or our service providers, arising out of or relating to your use of the Site, Site Content, Materials, or these Terms, you hereby (i) give up your right to have a trial by jury; and (ii) give up your right to serve as a representative, as a private attorney general, or in any other representative capacity, or to participate as a member of a class of claimants, in any lawsuit involving such dispute. Neither an arbitrator nor an arbitration provider shall have the authority to hear, arbitrate, or administer any class action or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration, except as provided in the “You agree to arbitration” section below.

40. You agree to arbitration.

You and RRMC NA hereby agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of relating to the Site, Site Content, Materials, or these Terms will be settled in binding arbitration between you and RRMC NA—not in a court of law (“Agreement to Arbitrate”). The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate.

You and RRMC NA hereby waive the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Unless both you and RRMC NA otherwise agree in writing, any arbitration will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, both you and RRMC NA retain the right to bring an individual action in small claims court (if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual, non-class, non-representative basis) and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of either party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

You and RRMC NA agree that each individual claim for arbitration must set out the identity of the plaintiff and the plaintiff’s counsel, a detailed description of the legal claims being asserted and the requested relief, including a good-faith calculation of the specific amount in dispute.

You and RRMC NA agree that each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative or private attorney general action or proceeding. Unless both you and RRMC NA agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person's or party's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative, class, or private attorney general action or proceeding. Also, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party's individual claims. Any relief awarded cannot affect other users.

The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA" or “arbitration provider”) under its rules and procedures, including the AAA's Consumer Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. Please review the AAA's rules. The use of the word "arbitrator" in this provision shall not be construed to prohibit more than one arbitrator from presiding over an arbitration; rather, the AAA's rules will govern the number of arbitrators that may preside over an arbitration conducted under this Agreement to Arbitrate.

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a completed form notice of dispute. If you and RRMC NA are unable to resolve the claims described in the notice within thirty (30) days after the notice is sent, you or RRMC NA may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA's website. In addition to filing this form with the AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, the party initiating the arbitration must mail a copy of the completed form to the opposing party.

The arbitration hearing will be held in a location agreed between you and us. If we cannot agree, either party may request an arbitrator to decide the location of the hearing. If the value of the relief sought is $10,000 or less, you or RRMC NA may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election will be binding on you and RRMC NA, subject to the arbitrator's discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, you or RRMC NA may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.

The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator is not bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users. The arbitrator's award is final and binding. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules. Unless otherwise determined by the arbitrator, each party will be responsible for their own fees.

B. Opting Out of Arbitration.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this section, you may choose to pursue your claim in court and not by arbitration if you opt out of this Agreement to Arbitrate within 30 days from the earlier of: (1) the date you accept these Terms, or (2) the date you first agreed or assented to an agreement with RRMC NA that contained an arbitration provision. The opt-out notice must be postmarked no later than the applicable deadline and mailed to RRMC NA, LLC, Attn: Customer Relations, 300 Chestnut Ridge Road, Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey 07677. The opt-out notice must state that you do not agree to this Agreement to Arbitrate and must include your name, address, phone number and email address. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of this Agreement to Arbitrate, and failure to comply strictly with this procedure and the applicable deadline automatically will render the opt-out notice null and void. If you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate, all other parts of these Terms, including but not limited to the “You waive any jury trial and class action rights” section regarding waiver of jury trial and class action rights, will continue to apply. Opting out of this Agreement to Arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.

C. Mass Action Waiver.

Except as otherwise provided herein, you acknowledge and agree that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies between the parties shall be resolved only in individual arbitration. The parties expressly waive the right to have any dispute, claim, or controversy brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated as a mass action, and neither an arbitrator nor an arbitration provider shall have any authority to hear, arbitrate, or administer any mass action or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration, except as provided in subsection D below. The parties also expressly waive the right to seek, recover, or obtain any non-individual relief (“Mass Action Waiver”). The parties agree that the definition of a “Mass Action” includes, but is not limited to, instances in which you or RRMC NA are represented by a law firm or collection of law firms that has filed 50 or more arbitration demands of a substantially similar nature against the other party within 180 days of the arbitration demand filed on your or RRMC NA’s behalf, and the law firm or collection of law firms seeks to simultaneously or collectively administer or arbitrate all the arbitration demands in the aggregate. Notwithstanding anything else in this agreement, this Mass Action Waiver does not prevent you or RRMC NA from participating in a mass settlement of claims.

If the arbitrator or panel of arbitrators determines that you have violated the Mass Action Waiver described above, the parties shall have the opportunity to opt out of arbitration within 30 days of the arbitrator’s or panel of arbitrator’s decision in this regard. You may opt out of arbitration by providing written notice of your intention to opt out to the arbitration provider and to RRMC NA, LLC, Attn: Customer Relations, 300 Chestnut Ridge Road, Woodcliff Lake, New Jersey 07677, via USPS Priority Mail or hand delivery. This written notice must be signed by you, and not any attorney, agent, or other representative of yours. RRMC NA may opt out of arbitration by sending written notice of its intention to opt out to the arbitration panel and to you or your attorney, agent, or representative, if you are represented. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph's limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court, subject to your and RRMC NA's right to appeal the court's decision. All other claims will be arbitrated.

D. Batching.

To increase efficiency of resolution in the event a Mass Action is filed and neither party exercises its right to opt out of arbitration as described above, the following procedure shall apply.

At the request of either party, an arbitrator shall be selected according to the applicable arbitration provider’s rules to act as a special master (“Special Master”) to resolve threshold disputes regarding the propriety of some or all the arbitration demands submitted in the Mass Action (“Mass Arbitration Demands”) at the discretion of the Special Master.

Any such request shall be made within 15 days following the expiration of the opt-out period described above and may be made by providing written notice to the arbitration provider. Upon the request of either party to appoint a Special Master to resolve the foregoing issues, the applicable arbitration provider shall refrain from further processing any of the Mass Arbitration Demands to which a dispute has been raised. No further payment for filing fees, administrative costs, or arbitrator fees shall be deemed due with respect to any of the Mass Arbitration Demands as to which a dispute has been raised until after the disputes have been resolved by the Special Master. RRMC NA shall be responsible for the applicable arbitration provider’s and Special Master’s fees and costs related to the proceedings before the Special Master.

A Special Master appointed pursuant to this procedure shall have no authority to consolidate cases.

After proceedings before the Special Master have concluded, to the extent any of the Mass Arbitration Demands are permitted to proceed, the parties shall group the Mass Arbitration Demands into batches of no more than 100 demands per batch by state of residence, and then alphabetically by last name and shall inform the arbitration provider of the batches and their compositions within 14 days of the conclusion of proceedings before the Special Master. The arbitration provider shall treat each batch of claims as one case, with each case having one demand for arbitration, one appointed arbitrator, and one set of administrative documents and administrative and filing fees per batch. 

The parties agree to cooperate in good faith with each other and the arbitration provider to implement such a batch approach to resolution and fees.

41. Some provisions survive termination.

42. These Terms state our entire agreement.

Except to the extent otherwise set forth herein, the Terms set forth the entire understanding between RRMC NA and you with respect to your access to and use of the Site and Site Content. The Terms replace all prior understandings between us.

43. You may not assign these Terms.

44. You agree to New Jersey governing law and venue.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to its conflicts of law principles. Exclusive jurisdiction over any cause of action arising out of these Terms or your use of the RRMC NA Site is in the state or federal courts located in Newark, New Jersey, although we retain the right to bring proceedings against you for breach of these Terms in your country of residence or any other relevant country. You submit to the jurisdiction of such courts.

45. Only unenforceable Terms will be severed.

If any of portion of the Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining Terms will remain in effect. The unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most clearly matches the intent of the original provision.

46. Our rights are not waived by our failure to exercise a right.

If RRMC NA fails to exercise any of its rights under these Terms, any such failure will not constitute a waiver of such right or any other rights under the Terms.
