Dispute Resolution. Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with the Company and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and the Company and any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, assigns, and all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.

All claims and disputes in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by the Company that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English.

Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send the other party a written Notice of Dispute describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute and the requested relief. A Notice to the Company should be sent to California / San Francisco.

After the notice is received, you and the Company may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If you and the Company do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the notice, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the award amount to which either party is entitled.

Arbitration Rules. An established alternative dispute resolution provider that offers arbitration as outlined in this Section. The arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association.

If A.A.A. is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative A.D.R. Provider. The rules of the A.D.R. Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration except to the extent such rules conflict with the Terms.

The A.A.A. Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at adr.org or by calling the A.A.A. at 1-800-778-7879. A single, neutral arbitrator shall conduct the arbitration. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $10,000.00) may be resolved through binding non-appearance-based arbitration at the option of the party seeking relief.

For claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (U.S. $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the Arbitration Rules. Any hearing will be held within 100 miles of your residence unless you reside outside of the United States and unless the parties agree otherwise.

If you live outside the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of any oral hearings date, time, and place. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator grants you an award more excellent than the last settlement offer that the Company made to you before the arbitration, the Company will pay you the greater of the award or $2,500.00. Each party shall bear its costs and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and expenses of the A.D.R. Provider.

Additional Rules for Non-Appearance Based Arbitration. If non-appearance-based arbitration is elected, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online, and based solely on written submissions; the party initiating the arbitration shall choose the specific manner. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed by the parties.

Time Limits. If you or the Company pursues arbitration, the arbitration action must be initiated and demanded within the statute of limitations and within any deadline imposed under the A.A.A. Rules for the pertinent claim.

Authority of Arbitrator. If arbitration is initiated, the arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities and the Company. The dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim.

The arbitrator shall have the power to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the A.A.A. Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have.

The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator’s award is final and binding upon you and the Company.

Waiver of Jury Trial. THE PARTIES now WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement.

Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient, and less expensive than rules applicable in a court and are subject to minimal review by a court. If any litigation should arise between you and the Company in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, YOU AND THE COMPANY waive ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that a judge resolves the dispute.

Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. All claims and disputes within the scope of this arbitration agreement must be arbitrated or litigated on an individual basis and not on a class basis, and claims of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or litigated jointly or consolidated with those of any other customer or user.

Confidentiality. All aspects of the arbitration proceeding shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law. This paragraph shall not prevent a party from submitting to a court of law any information necessary to enforce this Agreement, enforce an arbitration award, or seek injunctive or equitable relief.

Severability. Suppose any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction. In that case, such specific features shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

Right to Waive. Any or all of the rights and limitations outlined in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement.

Survival of Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with the Company.

Small Claims Court. Nonetheless, either you or the Company may bring an individual action in small claims court.

Emergency Equitable Relief. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement. Anyhow the previous, either party may seek equitable emergency relief before a state or federal court to maintain the status quo pending arbitration.

Claims Not Subject to Arbitration. Notwithstanding the preceding, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement.

In any circumstances where the prior Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties now agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Netherlands County, California, for such purposes.

The Site may be subject to U.S. export control laws and may be subject to export or import regulations in other countries.

Entire Terms. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the use of the Site. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision.

The word “including” means “including without limitation.” the section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. Suppose any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable.

Your relationship with Company is that of an independent contractor, and neither party is an agent or partner of the other. In that case, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired. The invalid or unenforceable provision will be modified to be valid and enforceable to the maximum extent.

These Terms and your rights and obligations herein may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by you without the Company’s prior written consent. Any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the previous will be null void. The terms and conditions outlined in these Terms shall be binding upon assignees. The Company may freely assign these Terms.
