16.            Dispute Resolution.

 

a.      Mandatory Arbitration.   Please read this carefully.  It affects your rights.  YOU AND SHARED2YOU AND EACH OF OUR RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST, SUCCESSORS, AND PERMITTED ASSIGNS AGREE TO ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR MATTERS THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT), AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORM OF DISPUTE RESOLUTION EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW, FOR ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE.  Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court.  Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts.  Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.  Please visit www.adr.org for more information about arbitration.

 

                                      i.     Commencing Arbitration.  A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written notice of intent to arbitrate (a “Notice”), or, in the absence of a mailing address provided by you to Shared2you, to you via any other method available to Shared2you, including via e-mail.  The Notice to Shared2you should be addressed to P.O. Box 44066, Eden Prairie, MN 55344-4066, Attn: Chief Operating Officer (the “Arbitration Notice Address”).  The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (the “Demand”).  If you and Shared2you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Shared2you may commence an arbitration proceeding as set forth below or file a claim in small claims court.  THE ARBITRATION SHALL BE ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (THE “Rules”), AS MODIFIED BY THIS AGREEMENT.  The Rules and AAA forms are available online at www.adr.org.  If you are required to pay a filing fee to commence an arbitration against Shared2you, then Shared2you will promptly reimburse you for your confirmed payment of the filing fee upon Shared2you’s receipt of Notice at the Arbitration Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration along with a receipt evidencing payment of the filing fee, unless your Demand is equal to or greater than $1,000 or was filed in bad faith, in which case you are solely responsible for the payment of the filing fee. 

 

                                    ii.     Arbitration Proceeding.  The arbitration will be conducted in the English language.  A single independent and impartial arbitrator shall be appointed pursuant to the Rules, as modified herein.  You and Shared2you agree to comply with the following rules, which are intended to streamline the dispute resolution process and reduce the costs and burdens on the parties: (i) the arbitration will be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner to be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (ii) the arbitration will not require any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing by the parties; and (iii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. 

 

                                   iii.     No Class ActionsYOU AND SHARED2YOU AGREE THAT YOU AND SHARED2YOU 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, YOU AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND THAT IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISO IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION SECTION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID

 

                                   iv.     Decision of the Arbitrator.  Barring extraordinary circumstances, the arbitrator shall issue his or her decision within 120 days from the date the arbitrator is appointed.  The arbitrator may extend this time limit for an additional 30 days in the interests of justice.  All arbitration proceedings will be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award.  The award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and will include a statement setting forth the reasons for the disposition of any claim.  The arbitrator will apply the laws of the State of Minnesota in conducting the arbitration.  You acknowledge that these terms and your use of the Service evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce.  The United States Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to the Mandatory Arbitration clause in these Terms.

 

b.     Equitable Relief.  The foregoing provisions of this Dispute Resolution section do not apply to any claim in which Shared2you seeks equitable relief of any kind.  You acknowledge that, in the event of a breach of this EULA by Shared2you or any third party, the damage or harm, if any, caused to you will not entitle you to seek injunctive or other equitable relief against Shared2you, and your only remedy will be for monetary damages, subject to the limitations of liability set forth in this EULA.

 

c.      Claims.  You and Shared2you agree that, notwithstanding any other rights the party may have under law or equity, any cause of action arising out of or related to this EULA or the App, excluding a claim for indemnification, must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues.  Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.

 

d.     Improperly Filed Claims.  All claims you bring against Shared2you must be resolved in accordance with this Dispute Resolution section.  All claims filed or brought contrary to this Dispute Resolution section will be considered improperly filed.  Should you file a claim contrary to this Dispute Resolution section, Shared2you may recover attorneys' fees and costs up to $5,000, provided that Shared2you has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim, and you have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.

 

e.      Modifications.  In the event that Shared2You makes any future change to the Mandatory Arbitration provision (other than a change to Shared2You’s Arbitration Notice Address), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Shared2You’s Arbitration Notice Address, in which case your account with Shared2You and your license to use the App shall terminate immediately, and this Dispute Resolution provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, shall survive the termination of this EULA.

 

f.       Enforceability.  If only Section 17.a.iii  or the entirety of this Section 17 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 17 shall be null and void and, in such case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 18  shall govern any action arising out of or related to this EULA.

 

17.            Governing Law.  The laws of the State of Minnesota, excluding its conflicts of law rules, govern this EULA and your use of the App.  Your use of the App may also be subject to other local, state, national, or international laws.  To the extent that any action relating to any dispute hereunder is permitted to be brought in a court of law, such action shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Hennepin County, Minnesota, and you hereby irrevocably submit to personal jurisdiction in such courts, and waive any defense of inconvenient forum.

 

18.            Assignment.  You may not assign this EULA or any of the rights or licenses granted hereunder, directly or indirectly, including by sale, merger, change of control, operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written consent of Shared2you.  This means that in the event you dispose of any device on which you have installed the App, such as by sale or gift, you are responsible for deleting the App from your mobile device prior to such disposition.  Shared2you may assign this EULA, including all its rights hereunder, without restriction.

 

19.            SurvivalThe provisions of this EULA that are intended to survive the termination of this EULA by their nature will survive the termination of this EULA, including, but not limited to, Sections 3 (The Service), 8 (Consent to Use of Data), 9 (Ownership), 10 (Feedback), 11 (Termination), 12 (Indemnity), 13 (No Warranty), 14 (Limitation of Liability), 15 (Third Party Disputes), 16 (Dispute Resolution), 17 (Governing Law), 18 (Assignment), 19 (Survival), 20 (Consent to Electronic Communications), 21 (Miscellaneous), and 22 (Contacting Shared2you).

 

20.            Consent to Electronic Communications.  By using the App, you consent to receiving certain electronic communications from us as further described in our Privacy Policy.  Please read our Privacy Policy to learn more about your choices regarding our electronic communications practices.  You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing.
