To the maximum extent permitted by law, you and we agree that any dispute, controversy, or other claim (“Dispute”) arising out of or relating in any way to these Terms and prior versions of these Terms, any communications you receive from us, any products sold or distributed through the Platform, your account, your access to or use of the Platform (including for the purchase of products), and your Submissions will be resolved exclusively and finally by a single arbitrator using binding arbitration pursuant to the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as detailed in this Section (“Arbitration Agreement”). For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, “Dispute” will also include disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the existence of this or any prior versions of the Terms, as well as claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review. The arbitrator must follow these Terms and can award the same damages and relief as a court or jury.
Any Dispute must be initiated via arbitration within the applicable statute of limitation for that claim or controversy and you agree that all applicable statutes of limitation will apply to such arbitration in the same manner as they would apply in a court of competent jurisdiction.
DISPUTE RESOLUTION WILL ONLY BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR SIMILAR ACTION, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW.
If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found to be invalid or unenforceable, such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
The only exceptions to this Arbitration Agreement are: (i) you and Typhur may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if such claims qualify and remain in small claims court; or (ii) you or Typhur may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property. For purposes of this Arbitration Agreement, “Dispute” will also include disputes that arose or involve facts occurring before the existence of this or any prior versions of the Terms, as well as claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms.
Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution
If a Dispute arises, you agree to make a good faith, informal effort to resolve the Dispute with Typhur before initiating any proceeding. If you have a Dispute, please contact us with the following information: (i) your name; (ii) your address; (iii) a written description of the Dispute; and (iv) a description of the specific relief you seek. If we do not resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days after receiving this notification, then you may pursue the Dispute in arbitration. If we do not resolve the Dispute within forty-five (45) days after receiving your notification, then you may pursue the Dispute in arbitration, or, if you have opted out of arbitration as provided below, in court.
Waiver of Jury Trial
YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You are instead agreeing that all Disputes be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in this Section.
Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief
YOU AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THE BATCH ARBITRATION CLAUSE BELOW OR OTHERWISE PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST TYPHUR ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE BE BROUGHT, HEARD, ADMINISTERED, RESOLVED, OR ARBITRATED ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, OR MASS ACTION BASIS. ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND DISPUTES OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER.
Subject to this Arbitration Agreement, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief on the party's individual claim. Nothing in this paragraph is intended to, nor shall it, affect the terms and conditions under the subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration.” Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Arbitration Agreement, if a court decides that this waiver is invalid or unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief, you that that particular claim or request for relief shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in the courts located in the State of California. This does not prevent you or Typhur from participating in a class-wide settlement.
Right to Opt Out
You have the right to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement within thirty (30) days from the date that you first consent to these Terms (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). To opt out of arbitration, simply contact us with the following information: (i) your name; (ii) your address; and (iii) a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve Disputes with us through arbitration. Any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and you will be required to pursue any Dispute in arbitration. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you.
Changes to this Arbitration Agreement do not provide you with a new opportunity to opt out if you have previously agreed to a version of these Terms and did not validly opt out of arbitration.
Arbitration Procedures
If the Dispute is not resolved informally within forty-five (45) days, you or Typhur may initiate arbitration proceedings. The arbitration will be conducted by AAA before a single arbitrator, in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org/rules. These Terms govern in the event of any conflict with the applicable arbitration rules.
The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including, without limitation, disputes arising out of or related to the interpretation or application of the Arbitration Agreement, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or any portion of the Arbitration Agreement, except for the following: (i) all Disputes arising out of or relating to the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief,” including any claim that all or part of the subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” is unenforceable, illegal, void, or voidable, or that such subsection entitled “Waiver of Class and Other Non-Individualized Relief” has been breached, shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (ii) except as expressly contemplated in the subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration,” all Disputes about the payment of arbitration fees shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; (iii) all Disputes about whether either party has satisfied any condition precedent to arbitration shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator; and (iv) all Disputes about which version of the Arbitration Agreement applies shall be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties, except as expressly provided in the subsection entitled “Batch Arbitration.”
If you wish to initiate arbitration, you must send Typhur a request for arbitration (“Request”). The Request must include: (i) the name, telephone number, mailing address, and email address of the party seeking arbitration; (ii) the account username (if applicable) and email address associated with any applicable account; (iii) a statement of the legal claims being asserted and the factual bases of those claims; (iv) a description of the remedy sought and an accurate, good‐faith calculation of the amount in controversy; (v) a statement certifying completion of the Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution process as described above; and (v) evidence that the requesting party has paid any necessary filing fees in connection with such arbitration.
The arbitration will be conducted in English, closed to the public, and confidential. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator may direct a limited and reasonable exchange of information between the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. You and Typhur agree that all materials and documents exchanged during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept confidential and shall not be shared with anyone except the parties’ attorneys, accountants, or business advisors subject to the condition that they agree to keep all such materials and documents confidential. All related records shall be kept confidential, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of an arbitration award.
The Terms evidence a transaction which may involve interstate commerce; notwithstanding any other provision herein with respect to the applicable substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement and any arbitration proceedings.
Nothing herein will preclude you or Typhur from seeking provisional remedies in support of arbitration (such as orders to stay a court action or compel arbitration), temporary restraining orders or similar relief, or redress for potential violations of intellectual property rights, from any court of competent jurisdiction.
Attorney’s Fees and Costs
The parties shall bear their own attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the Dispute or the relief sought in the Request was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). Your responsibility to pay any AAA fees and costs will be solely as set forth in the applicable AAA Rules. If you or we need to invoke the authority of a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, then the party that obtains an order compelling arbitration in such action shall have the right to collect from the other party its reasonable costs, necessary disbursements, and reasonable attorneys' fees incurred in securing an order compelling arbitration. The prevailing party in any court action relating to the satisfaction of any condition precedent to arbitration is entitled to recover their reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.
Arbitration Award
The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law. The arbitrator will make any award in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. Such award will be final and binding on the parties and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.
Arbitration Location
Unless you and Typhur otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the County of Santa Clara, California. You agree to jurisdiction and venue in Santa Clara County, California. If you reside outside the United States, the arbitration will be conducted remotely (via Zoom, Teams, etc.) so that you or your representative may participate in the country where you reside. The arbitration shall be conducted in English. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.
Severability
If any part or parts of these Terms shall be deemed invalid, void, or for any reason unenforceable, the part or parts shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining parts of these Terms.
Miscellaneous
Entire Agreement. These Terms and the Privacy Statement set out the entire understanding and agreement between you and Typhur.
No Partnership. Nothing in these Terms shall constitute a partnership between you and Typhur, or will these Terms make either you or Typhur the agent of the other party for any purpose.
Assignment. Typhur has the right to transfer, assign, subcontract, or replace Typhur’s rights and obligations under these Terms without diminishing your rights and interests.
Headings. In these Terms, unless the context requires otherwise, headings do not affect its interpretation.
