General
. This EULA, together with the Privacy Policy and
any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into this EULA,
are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and
SmoothTerminal regarding your use of the Service. Except as expressly
permitted above, this EULA may be amended only by a written agreement
signed by authorized representatives of all parties to this EULA. You may
not assign or transfer this EULA or your rights under this EULA, in whole
or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written
consent. We may assign this EULA at any time without notice or consent.
The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our
right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a
waiver by us of any breach or default of this EULA, or any provision of
this EULA, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of
the provision itself. Use of section headers in this EULA is for
convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of
any provision. If any part of this EULA is held to be invalid or
unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the
greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full
force and effect. Upon termination of this EULA, Sections 2, 6, 9 through
28, and 30, along with the Privacy Policy and any other accompanying
agreements, will survive.
-
Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
-
Generally
. In the interest of resolving disputes
between you and SmoothTerminal in the most expedient and cost effective
manner, you and SmoothTerminal agree that every dispute arising in
connection with this EULA will be resolved by binding arbitration.
Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses
a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more
limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited
review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief
that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes
all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of this EULA,
whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation,
or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises
during or after the termination of this EULA. YOU UNDERSTAND AND
AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THIS EULA, YOU AND SmoothTerminal ARE EACH
WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS
ACTION.
-
Exceptions
. Despite the provisions of Section 27.1,
nothing in this EULA will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise
limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in
small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the
applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is
available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to
file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property
infringement claim.
-
Arbitrator
. Any arbitration between you and
SmoothTerminal will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and
governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the
Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively,
"
AAA Rules
") of the American Arbitration Association
("
AAA
"), as modified by this EULA, and will be
administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available
online at
www.adr.org
, by calling the AAA
at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting SmoothTerminal.
-
Notice; Process
. A party who intends to seek
arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the
other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature
required) or, only if such other party has not provided a current
physical address, then by electronic mail
("
Notice
"). SmoothTerminal's address for Notice is:
Concur Messaging, Inc. d/b/a SmoothTerminal, 6019 Riverview Drive
Birmingham, AL 35210. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and
basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief
sought ("
Demand
"). The parties will make good faith
efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not
reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is
received, you or SmoothTerminal may commence an arbitration proceeding.
During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by
you or SmoothTerminal must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after
the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the
dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor,
SmoothTerminal will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount
awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement
amount offered by SmoothTerminal in settlement of the dispute prior to the
arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.
-
Fees
. If you commence arbitration in accordance with
this EULA, SmoothTerminal will reimburse you for your payment of the
filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case
the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any
arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon
in Jefferson County, Alabama, but if the claim is for $10,000 or
less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a)
solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b)
through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an
in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or
parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either
the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is
frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the
standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then
the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that
case, you agree to reimburse SmoothTerminal for all monies previously
disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the
AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is
conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision
sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which
the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make
rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of
fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request
from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on
the merits.
-
No Class Actions
. YOU AND SmoothTerminal AGREE THAT EACH
MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL
CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED
CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and
SmoothTerminal agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more
than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form
of a representative or class proceeding.
-
Modifications to this Arbitration Provision
. If
SmoothTerminal makes any future change to this arbitration provision,
other than a change to SmoothTerminal's address for Notice, you may reject
the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change
to SmoothTerminal's address for Notice, in which case your account with
SmoothTerminal will be immediately terminated and this arbitration
provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected
will survive.
-
Enforceability
. If Section 27.6 is found to be
unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 27 is found to be
unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 27 will be null and
void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive
jurisdiction and venue described in Section 25 will govern any action
arising out of or related to this EULA.
