​

17. BINDING ARBITRATION​

 

In the event of a dispute arising under or relating to this Agreement, the Platform (each, a “Dispute”),

such dispute will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration governed by the Federal

Arbitration Act (“FAA”). NEITHER PARTY SHALL HAVE THE RIGHT TO LITIGATE SUCH CLAIM

IN COURT OR TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL, EXCEPT EITHER PARTY MAY BRING ITS CLAIM IN 

ITS LOCAL SMALL CLAIMS COURT, IF PERMITTED BY THAT SMALL CLAIMS COURT

RULES AND IF WITHIN SUCH COURT’S JURISDICTION. ARBITRATION IS DIFFERENT FROM

COURT, AND DISCOVERY AND APPEAL RIGHTS MAY ALSO BE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION.

All disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator selected jointly by the parties, whose decision will

be final, except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. The arbitration shall be commenced and

conducted by JAMS pursuant to its then current Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in

accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those rules, or, where appropriate, pursuant to JAMS’

Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. All applicable JAMS’ rules and procedures are available at

the JAMS website www.jamsadr.com. Each party will be responsible for paying any JAMS filing,

administrative, and arbitrator fees in accordance with JAMS rules. Judgment on the arbitrator’s award

may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking

provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. The arbitration may be

conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. If conducted in person,

the arbitration shall take place in the United States county where you reside. The parties may litigate in

court to compel arbitration, to stay a proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or

enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. The parties shall cooperate in good faith in the

voluntary and informal exchange of all non-privileged documents and other information (including

electronically stored information) relevant to the Dispute immediately after commencement of the

arbitration. As set forth in Section 17 below, nothing in this Agreement will prevent us from seeking

injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to protect our proprietary interests.

 

 

18. CLASS ACTION WAIVER

​

You agree that any arbitration or proceeding shall be limited to the Dispute between us and you

individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (i) no arbitration or proceeding shall be joined with any

other; (ii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated or resolved on a class action-basis

or to utilize class action procedures; and (iii) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in

a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons. YOU AGREE

THAT YOU MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST US ONLY IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND

NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR

REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

​

​

19. EQUITABLE RELIEF

​

You acknowledge and agree that in the event of a breach or threatened violation of our intellectual

property rights and confidential and proprietary information by you, we will suffer irreparable harm and

will therefore be entitled to injunctive relief to enforce this Agreement. We may, without waiving any

other remedies under this Agreement, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim, equitable,

provisional, or injunctive relief that is necessary to protect our rights and property pending the outcome of

the arbitration referenced above. You hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent to the personal and

subject matter jurisdiction of the federal and state courts in the State of California for purposes of any

such action by us.

​

​

20. CONTROLLING LAW; EXCLUSIVE FORUM

​

The Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed by the laws of the State of California

without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The Parties hereby consent and agree to the exclusive

jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of California for all suits, actions, or

proceedings directly or indirectly arising out of or relating to this Agreement, and waive any and all

objections to such courts, including but not limited to, objections based on improper venue or inconvenient forum, and each party hereby irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts

in any suits, actions, or proceedings arising out of or relating to this Agreement

​

​

21. MISCELLANEOUS

​

You may not assign any of your rights, duties, or obligations under these Terms of Use to any person or

entity, in whole or in part, without written consent from Freed. Our failure to act on or enforce any

provision of the Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision or any other provision in

this Agreement. No waiver shall be effective against us unless made in writing, and no such waiver shall

be construed as a waiver in any other or subsequent instance. Except as expressly agreed by us and you in

writing, the Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the subject

matter, and supersedes all previous or contemporaneous agreements, whether written or oral, between the

parties with respect to the subject matter. The section headings are provided merely for convenience and

shall not be given any legal import. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of our successors, assigns,

licensees, and sublicensees.
