19. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration Provision Definitions. As used in this Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration Provision (“Arbitration Provision”), the terms “Bynaric,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Bynaric Inc., including its subsidiaries and agents; The word “Disputes” means all claims, disputes, or controversies between User and us of any nature or kind, whether pre-existing, present, or future, that arise from or relate to the Bynaric Service. This includes but is not limited to disagreements about the validity, enforceability, or scope of this Arbitration Provision. Informal Efforts to Resolve Dispute. If a dispute arises between User and Bynaric, User should first attempt to resolve it by contacting our Customer Service Center at (800) 998-6627 or by sending the details of User’s complaint, including User’s contact information for a response, to the address or email address listed below. We will attempt in good faith to resolve all Disputes submitted this way within fifteen (15) days of receipt. Agreement to Arbitrate; Right to Opt Out. If informal efforts to resolve Disputes fail or are not used, User agrees that any and all Disputes will be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration as described herein, except that: (i) User may assert Disputes in a small claims court in the United States if User’s Disputes meet the court’s jurisdictional requirements; and (ii) either party may pursue Disputes and relief in a court of competent jurisdiction regarding the validity and/or infringement of a party’s intellectual property rights. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS VERY LIMITED. HOWEVER, AN ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD TO USER ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS THE SAME DAMAGES AND FORM OF RELIEF AS A COURT COULD (INCLUDING INJUNCTIVE AND DECLARATORY RELIEF AS WELL AS STATUTORY DAMAGES), AND MUST FOLLOW THE LAW AND TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AS A COURT WOULD. ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS AND PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. IF USER DOES NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, USER MUST NOTIFY BYNARIC IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT USER FIRST ACCEPTS OR HAS ACCESS TO THESE TERMS OF USE BY MAILING OR EMAILING AN OPT-OUT REQUEST TO OUR CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER LISTED BELOW. USER’S WRITTEN NOTIFICATION MUST INCLUDE USER’S NAME, ADDRESS, THE EMAIL ADDRESS USER USED TO REGISTER WITH BYNARIC, AND A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT USER DOES NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH US THROUGH ARBITRATION. USER’S DECISION TO OPT OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WILL HAVE NO ADVERSE EFFECT ON USER’S RELATIONSHIP WITH US OR THE DELIVERY OF SERVICES TO USER BY US. IF USER HAS PREVIOUSLY NOTIFIED US OF USER’S DECISION TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION, USER DOES NOT NEED TO DO SO AGAIN. Arbitration Fees. The allocation and payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) rules which limit the amount a consumer is required to pay. If the arbitrator determines that User’s Disputes are not frivolous applying the standards of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, we agree to reimburse User the amount of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees User is required to pay for the arbitration. Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the “AAA” under its rules if User is a resident of the United States; if User’s use of the Bynaric Service has been principally for personal or household use, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will also apply. If User is a resident of a country other than the United States, the arbitration will be conducted by the AAA’s International Centre for Dispute Resolution with venue in San Francisco, California, USA, under its rules for international arbitration. The Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the U.S. federal court for the Northern District of California, in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the applicable arbitration rules and this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision shall govern and control. The arbitration will be conducted in the English language by a single arbitrator who is an attorney-at-law with experience in consumer and technology transactions and who is also a member of the AAA National Roster of Arbitrators. If the parties can’t agree on a mutually acceptable arbitrator within fifteen (15) days after the arbitration is initiated, then the AAA will pick a neutral arbitrator who meets the qualifications. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org, or by calling 1-800-778-7879 from inside the United States or +1-212-484-4181 from outside the United States. Initiating Arbitration. To begin an arbitration proceeding, User must follow the procedures specified by the applicable AAA rules as described on their website at www.adr.org. Time Restriction. USER MUST FILE A COMPLAINT WITH AAA OR A PERMITTED COURT WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF THE DATE OF THE OCCURRENCE OF THE EVENT OR FACTS GIVING RISE TO A CLAIM, OR USER WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PURSUE ANY CLAIM BASED UPON SUCH EVENT, FACTS OR DISPUTE. Arbitration Process. Because appearing in person for arbitration can be unduly burdensome in the circumstances, arbitration under this Arbitration Provision shall not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless mutually agreed. Either or both parties may participate by written submissions, telephone calls, or other means of remote communication as allowed by the arbitrator. The arbitration proceedings will be conducted in the English language at a location designated by the AAA that is the most convenient for User. The arbitration can only decide Disputes between User and Bynaric, and may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons that may have similar claims. There shall be no pre-arbitration discovery except as provided for in the applicable AAA rules. The arbitrator will honor claims of privilege recognized by law and will take reasonable steps to protect customer account information and other confidential or proprietary information. In conducting the arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator will apply the law of the State of California (without regard to its conflicts of law provisions) including U.S. federal law for matters covered by federal law (e.g. the Federal Arbitration Act). At the request of any party, the arbitrator shall provide a brief written explanation of the basis for the decision and award. Judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on the parties except for any right to appeal under the AAA rules or the Federal Arbitration Act. Enhanced Recovery. If the arbitrator rules in User’s favor on the merits of any Claim brought against us and issues a damages award in User’s favor that is greater in monetary value than our last written settlement offer made before written submissions are made to the arbitrator, then when the judgment is final we will pay User the damage award judgment plus fifty percent (150%) up to US$1,000 over and above the damages award, plus User’s reasonable attorneys’ fees for the arbitration proceeding. Confidentiality. User and we shall keep confidential any information exchanged during the arbitration as well as the decision of the arbitrator made with respect to any Claim(s) arbitrated under this Arbitration Provision and, with the exception of disclosure to User’s or our attorneys, accountants, auditors, and other legal or financial advisors, neither party shall disclose such information or decision to any other person unless required to do so by law. Continuing Obligation to Arbitrate; Severability. This Arbitration Provision shall survive termination of User’s access to or use of any Bynaric Service and related agreements. If any portion of this Arbitration Provision is deemed invalid or unenforceable at law, such invalid or unenforceable provision will be interpreted, construed or reformed to the extent required to make it valid and enforceable, and this shall not invalidate the remaining portions of this Arbitration Provision.
