18 Entire Agreement
These Terms (together with our Privacy Policy, Mobile Alerts Policy, Return Policy, and any other Supplemental Terms) constitute the entire agreement between you and Provider relating to your access to and use of the Services and your purchase of Products through the Services. These Terms supersede all prior or contemporaneous representations, understandings, agreements, or communications between you and Provider, whether oral or written, regarding the subject matter of these Terms. No waiver of any provision of these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. The word “including” means “including without limitation.” If any provision of these Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.
19 Dispute Resolution; Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
(a) Informal Dispute Resolution. We want to address your concerns without resorting to a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against Provider, you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting us. We’ll try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you through email. If a dispute is not resolved within 30 days after submission, you or Provider may bring a formal proceeding.
(b) Arbitration Agreement. Except where and to the extent prohibited by law, you and Provider agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof, or the use of the Services or Products (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis, rather than in court, except that: (i) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify; and (ii) you or Provider may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language in New York, New York, unless we both agree to another location or language. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
(c) Class Action Waiver. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND PROVIDER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Provider agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section will be null and void.
(d) Opt-Out. You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 19 by sending an email to us. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name, address, account identifier (if applicable), and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration.
