Arbitration and Governing Law

Arbitration

For any dispute you have with X-Equals, LLC, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that X-Equals, LLC has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to your use of the Services or this Agreement or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference, rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location which is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the AAA or by the arbitrator. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator will include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section will prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts for matters related to data security, intellectual property or unauthorized access to the Service. ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND X-Equals, LLC ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Governing Law

You agree that: (i) the Service will be deemed solely based in Illinois; and (ii) the Service will be deemed a passive host that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over X-Equals, LLC, LLC, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Illinois. This Agreement will be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Illinois, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. We each agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of a state court located in Cook County, Illinois, for any actions for which either party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, as further described in the Arbitration provision above.

General

Assignment

This Agreement, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by X-Equals, LLC without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof will be null and void.

Notification Procedures and Changes to the Agreement

X-Equals, LLC may provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by law or are for marketing or other business related purposes, to you via email notice, written or hard copy notice, or through posting of such notice on our website, as determined by X-Equals, LLC in our sole discretion. X-Equals, LLC reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to our Users, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in this Agreement. X-Equals, LLC may, in its sole discretion, modify or update this Agreement from time to time, and so you should review this page periodically.

Your continued use of the Service after any such change constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of Use. If you do not agree the terms of this Agreement or any future Terms of Use, do not use or access (or continue to access) the Service. X-Equals, LLC is not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notifications we send to the email address you provide us.

Entire Agreement/Severability

This Agreement, together with any amendments and any additional agreements you may enter into with X-Equals, LLC in connection with the Service, will constitute the entire agreement between you and X-Equals, LLC concerning the Service. If any provision of this Agreement is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which will remain in full force and effect. Headings are included for convenience only and will not be considered in interpreting this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this Agreement, the word including means including but not limited to.

No Waiver

No waiver of any term of this Agreement will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and X-Equals, LLC’s failure to assert any right or provision under this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
