These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of, resulting from, caused by and/or related to, its subject matter, or its formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state which has venue and jurisdiction, without reference to its conflicts of laws and choice of law rules or principles. The Parties irrevocably agree that the California Superior Court of San Francisco County, California, will have exclusive venue and jurisdiction to adjudicate and settle any dispute or claim arising
out of, resulting from, caused by, and/or related to these Terms, its subject matter, or its formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims). The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded from application to these Terms.
9. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
We are confident that we can resolve most concerns quickly and to your satisfaction. Please contact us as specified in section 13 below.
**** After an informal dispute resolution process, if the Parties agree that any remaining dispute, claim, or controversy between the Parties arising out of, resulting from, in connection with, or relating in any way to the terms and conditions of the Terms or to your relationship with us as a user of our website or responding to our surveys (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory) will be determined by mandatory, binding, individual arbitration administered by American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), conducted in the English language, without appeal or review except as permitted by law (for purposes of
clarification, no class action arbitration is permitted under the terms and conditions of these Terms). ****
The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual Party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the Party’s individual claim.
A Party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other Party, by electronic mail (“Dispute Notice(s)”). Our email address for Dispute Notices is: legal@medwatchtech.com. The Dispute Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) specify the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The Parties agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the dispute directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within thirty days (30) after the Dispute Notice is received, either Party may start an arbitration proceeding. Any arbitration between the Parties will take place under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in force (the “AAA Rules”). The AAA Rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. We can also help put you in touch with the AAA. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules.
During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by either Party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. In the event the dispute between the Parties is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, and the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of our last written settlement offer, then we will instead pay you either the amount of the award or one thousand dollars ($1,000.00 USD), whichever is greater. All documents and information disclosed in the course of the arbitration will be kept strictly confidential by the recipient. All documents and information disclosed will also not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award, and will not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who have a need to know for such purposes, or as required by applicable law.
Regardless of the terms in the above paragraphs, the Parties both agree that nothing in the arbitration clauses will waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to bring an individual: (a) action in a U.S. small claims court; (b) claims for (i) defamation; (ii) violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, or (iii) infringement or misappropriation of your or our intellectual property; or (c) action seeking only temporary or preliminary individualized injunctive relief in a court of law, pending a final ruling from the arbitrator. In addition, this arbitration clause doesn’t stop either Party from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local regulatory agencies. Such regulatory agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf (or vice versa).
