Arbitration
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH DaBlock AND LIMITS HOW YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM DaBlock.
16.1. Binding Arbitration
You and we agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services, including, without limitation, federal and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, shall be resolved through binding arbitration on an individual basis. Subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, you may elect to pursue your claim in your local small claims court rather than through arbitration so long as your matter remains in small claims court and proceeds only on an individual (non-class and non-representative) basis. Arbitration shall be conducted following the American Arbitration Association’s rules for the arbitration of consumer-related disputes.
16.2. No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions, or Representative Actions
You and we agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services is personal to you and DaBlock and that such dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding. You and we agree that there will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, you and we agree that a dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
16.3. Notice; Informal Dispute Resolution
You and we agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any arbitrable or small claims dispute within thirty (30) days of the date it arises so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally. Your notice must include (a) your name, postal address, telephone number, the email address you provided to us and, if different, an email address at which you can be contacted, (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the dispute, and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking. Our notice to you will be sent electronically and will include (x) our name, postal address, telephone number, and an email address at which we can be contacted with respect to the dispute, (y) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the dispute, and (z) the specific relief that we are seeking. If you and we cannot agree on how to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or we may commence an arbitration process.
16.4. Process
You and we agree that any dispute must be commenced or filed by you or us within one (1) year of the date the dispute arose, otherwise, the underlying claim is permanently barred (which means that you and we will no longer have the right to assert such claim regarding the dispute). You and we agree that arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator and shall take place in a mutually agreeable location, in the English language. The arbitrator may award any relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award and the arbitral decision may be enforced in any court. An arbitrator’s decision and judgment thereon will not have a precedential or collateral estoppel effect. Hearings may be conducted in person or by telephone and the arbitrator may provide for submitting and determining motions on briefs, without oral hearings.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms will be governed by the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. You and DaBlock agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these Terms shall be filed only in the state and federal courts located in New York City, New York, and you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consent and submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of these Terms.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is deemed unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. If any unlawful and/or unenforceable provision would be lawful or enforceable if part of it were deleted, that part will be deemed to be deleted, and the rest of the provision will continue in effect.
