Miscellaneous. If any provision of this Agreement is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of this Agreement will remain enforceable, and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. Any waiver or failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement on one occasion will not be deemed a waiver of any other provision or of such provision on any other occasion. This Agreement is the final, complete and exclusive agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matters hereof and supersedes all prior discussions and agreements (oral or written) between the Parties with respect to such subject matters. No modification of or amendment to this Agreement by User, or any waiver of any rights under this Agreement by Wesper, will be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized signatory of the parties. User shall not assign, subcontract, delegate, or otherwise transfer this Agreement, or its rights and obligations herein, without the prior written consent of Wesper. The terms of this Agreement shall be binding upon the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Notices or other communications required or permitted under this Agreement must be sent in writing, if to User, to an email address User has previously provided, if available, or other contact means including a message in User account, and if to Wesper, at the address listed on the Wesper website, by courier, certified or registered mail (postage prepaid and return receipt requested), or by a nationally recognized express mail service.

-
Disputes, Arbitration, and Class Action Waiver.
-
USER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTS ITS RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT OR TO PURSUE CLAIMS IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, INSTEAD UTILIZING A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR WITH LIMITED DISCOVERY, LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS AND SPECIFIC PROVISIONS FOR COORDINATED CLAIMS AMONG OTHER USERS.
-
Agreement to Binding Arbitration. The parties agree that any dispute, claim or controversy, known or later discovered, arising out of or relating to any aspect of this Agreement (including the validity and enforceability of its arbitration provisions), any privacy policy, and/or the Solution, (each, a “Dispute”), shall be resolved by binding arbitration in New York, NY, in the English language before one arbitrator, except as expressly provided herein, in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those rules (collectively, the “JAMS Rules”), as they exist on the effective date of this Agreement, including without limitation Rules 16.1 and 16.2 of the JAMS Rules. The arbitrator may select a less burdensome location or conduct the arbitration by video or telephone. An award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
-
Exceptions to Arbitration. Notwithstanding these arbitration provisions, either party may bring an action in state or federal court that only asserts claims for or enjoin patent infringement or invalidity, copyright infringement, piracy, moral rights violations, trademark infringement, and/or trade secret misappropriation, or in other scenarios where injunctive relief is appropriate.. Such excluded claims are subject to the governing law provision above. Either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for any individual disputes or claims within the scope of that court's jurisdiction. If an arbitration is filed, before the arbitrator is formally appointed, either party can send written notice to the opposing party and the applicable arbitration provider that it wants the case decided by a small claims court, after which the arbitration provider may close the case.
-
Jury Trial and Class Action Waiver. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT IT IS WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY; ANY CLAIMS OR ARBITRATION UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; CLASS ARBITRATIONS AND CLASS ACTIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED AND USER IS AGREEING TO GIVE UP THE ABILITY TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ARBITRATION OR CLASS ACTION; AND IF USER OPTS-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS AS SET FORTH BELOW, THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER STILL APPLIES. Further, unless mutually agreed otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with User’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
-
Seeking Arbitration. If User elects to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, it must first send to Wesper a written notice of the claim in accordance with the provisions above (“Notice”). If Wesper initiates arbitration, it will send a written Notice to an email address User has previously provided, if available, or use other contact means including a message in User account. A Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the Dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If the parties do not reach an agreement to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either Party may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. Arbitration forms can be downloaded from www.jamsadr.com.
-
Fees. The parties agree that for any arbitration User initiates, User will pay the filing fee up to US $250 and Wesper will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs in accordance with the JAMS Rules. For any arbitration initiated by Wesper, it will pay all JAMS fees and costs.
-
Hearing. If User’s Demand is for US $10,000 or less, User may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic or video hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules. If User Demand exceeds US $10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. In the event the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of submitted documents, the arbitrator’s decision and award will be made and delivered within six (6) months of the selection of the arbitrator, unless extended by the arbitrator. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules.
-
Award. In the event arbitration awards User damages of an amount at least US $100 greater than Wesper’s last-documented settlement offer, Wesper will pay such awarded damages or US $2,500, whichever is greater.
-
Unenforceability; No Waiver. In the event a court or arbitrator having jurisdiction finds any portion of this Agreement unenforceable, that portion shall not be effective, and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain effective. No waiver, express or implied, by either party of any breach of or default under this Agreement will constitute a continuing waiver of such breach or default or be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
-
Confidentiality. Each party shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding and the award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.
-
Coordinated Proceedings. If twenty-five (25) or more individuals initiate Notices of Dispute against Wesper raising similar claims, and counsel for the individuals bringing the claims are the same or are coordinated for these individuals (“Coordinated Claims”), the claims shall proceed in a coordinated proceeding. Counsel for the individuals and Wesper counsel shall each select ten (10) cases to proceed first in arbitration in a bellwether proceeding (“Test Cases”). The remaining cases shall not be filed in arbitration until the first ten (10) have been resolved. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining cases after the conclusion of the Test Cases, each side may select another twenty-five (25) cases to proceed to arbitration for a second bellwether proceeding. This process may continue until the parties have determined an objective methodology to make an offer to resolve each outstanding claim. A court will have authority to enforce this clause and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing of arbitration demands against Wesper. Individuals bringing Coordinated Claims shall be responsible for up to US $250 of their filing fees or the maximum permissible under the applicable arbitration rules. All applicable statutes of limitations and defenses based upon the passage of time will be tolled while the Coordinated Proceedings specified in this Section are pending.
-
Governing Law. Any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Secs. 1-16).
-
Punitive Damage and Limitation of Liability. In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator (i) is not empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages, except where permitted by statute, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages; and (ii) may not award any incidental, indirect, or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits.
-
Opt-Out Right. User has the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration agreement and class action waiver provisions in this Section by sending written notice to opt-out to support@wesper.co, using the subject line “Arbitration Opt-Out.” The notice must be sent within 30 days of the date on which User first became subject to this Agreement. Wesper shall not be bound upon such opt-out, however, the class action waiver would still apply.
-
Severability. If the clauses concerning the procedures related to Coordinated Claims and Test Case procedures are or become invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining entire arbitration arrangement shall be severed from this Agreement. However, any duty of confidentiality whether or not such duty is connected with arbitration shall survive such severance.
-
California Residents. To the extent provided in applicable law, a California-resident User is not required to pay the fees and costs incurred by the opposing party if such User does not prevail.
