10. Dispute Resolution, Binding Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MATERIALLY AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
A. Informal Dispute Resolution
Before initiating any formal legal proceeding, you and Helpsquicky agree to attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site informally. You agree to deliver a written notice of dispute containing a description of the claim, the requested remedy, and your contact information to legal@helpsquicky.com. We will attempt to reach an amicable resolution within thirty (30) calendar days of receipt.
B. Binding Individual Arbitration
If the dispute is not resolved through the informal process within 30 days, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, the breach thereof, or your use of the Site shall be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The Federal Arbitration Act (FAA) and federal arbitration law govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
- Arbitration Exceptions: Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if the claim falls within the jurisdictional limits of that court. Furthermore, either party may seek emergency equitable or injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect against the unauthorized use, infringement, or misappropriation of intellectual property rights.
C. CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER
YOU AND HELPSQUICKY AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
Unless both you and Helpsquicky agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. BOTH PARTIES EXPLICITLY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL OR STATUTORY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY.
11. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms, and all claims or causes of action arising out of or related to these Terms or the Site, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
To the extent that any lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under these Terms (such as enforcing an arbitration award, small claims actions, or intellectual property disputes), you and Helpsquicky agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware, and you waive any objection to inconvenient forum or improper venue.
12. Severability and Waiver
- Severability: If any provision of these Terms is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
- No Waiver: No waiver by Helpsquicky of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition. Our failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
13. Modifications to These Terms
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify, update, or replace these Terms at any time. When updates are published, the “Last Updated” date at the top of this document will be revised accordingly.
It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically for changes. Your continued access to or use of the Site following the posting of any revisions constitutes your express acceptance of the updated Terms.
