Dispute Resolution and Arbitration; Class Action Waiver (the “Provision”).

Please read this carefully. It affects Content Provider’s rights

Most concerns can be resolved quickly by contacting Supermind at creators@supermind.co. This Provision facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any disputes that may arise between Content Provider and Supermind. Arbitration is a form of private dispute resolution in which persons with a dispute waive their rights to file a lawsuit, to proceed in court and to a jury trial, and instead submit their disputes to a neutral third person (or arbitrator) for a binding decision. Content Provider has the right to opt-out of this Provision (as explained below), which means Content Provider would retain its right to litigate its disputes in a court, either before a judge or jury.

Please read this Provision carefully. It provides that all Disputes between Content Provider and Supermind shall be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court. In the absence of this arbitration agreement, Content Provider may otherwise have a right or opportunity to bring claims in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate in or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including, but not limited to, class actions). Except as otherwise provided, entering into this agreement constitutes a waiver of Content Provider’s right to litigate claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or jury. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees).

For the purpose of this Provision, “Supermind” means Supermind Platforms, Inc and its parent, subsidiary, and affiliate companies, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents. The term “Dispute” means any dispute, claim, or controversy between Content Provider and Supermind regarding any aspect of Content Provider’s relationship with Supermind, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence), or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below). “Dispute” is to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced, and shall include any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to Content Provider (such as Supermind’s licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) whenever Content Provider also asserts claims against us in the same proceeding.

THE PARTIES AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.

Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution

For all Disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, Content Provider must first give Supermind an opportunity to resolve the Dispute. Content Provider must commence this process by mailing written notification to Supermind, Attn: Channah Rose, 3100 Arapahoe Avenue Ste. 120 Boulder, Colorado 80303, along with emailed notification to legal@supermind.co That written notification must include (1) Content Provider’s name, (2) Content Provider’s address, (3) a written description of Content Provider’s Claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief Content Provider seeks. If Supermind does not resolve the Dispute within 45 days after it receives such written notification, Content Provider may pursue its Dispute in arbitration. Content Provider may pursue its Dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.

EXCLUSIONS FROM ARBITRATION/RIGHT TO OPT OUT

Notwithstanding the above, Content Provider or Supermind may choose to pursue a Dispute in court and not by arbitration if (a) the Dispute qualifies, it may be initiated in small claims court; or (b) CONTENT PROVIDER OPTS-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT CONTENT PROVIDER FIRST CONSENTS TO THIS AGREEMENT (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). Content Provider may opt out of this Provision by mailing written notification to Supermind, Attn: Channah Rose, 3100 Arapahoe Avenue Ste. 120 Boulder, Colorado 80303, along with emailed notification to legal@supermind.co. Content Provider’s written notification must include (1) Content Provider’s name, (2) Content Provider’s address, and (3) a clear statement that Content Provider does not wish to resolve disputes with Supermind through arbitration. Content Provider’s decision to opt-out of this Arbitration Provision will have no adverse effect on its relationship with Supermind. Any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and Content Provider must pursue its Dispute in arbitration or small claims court.

Arbitration Procedures

If this Provision applies and the Dispute is not resolved as provided above (Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution) either Content Provider or Supermind may initiate arbitration proceedings. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all Disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision.

For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action procedures or rules apply to the arbitration.

Because the Site and these Terms concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all Disputes. However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.

Arbitration Award – The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.

Location of Arbitration – Content Provider or Supermind may initiate arbitration only in Dover, Delaware. or the federal judicial district that includes Content Provider’s billing or primary business address (as applicable) In the event that Content Provider selects the federal judicial district that includes its billing or primary business address, Supermind may transfer the arbitration to Dover, Delaware in the event that it agrees to pay any additional fees or costs Content Provider incurs as a result of the transfer, as determined by the arbitrator.

Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs – Supermind will pay all arbitration filing fees and arbitrator’s costs and expenses upon Content Provider’s written request given prior to the commencement of the arbitration. Content Provider is responsible for all additional fees and costs that Content Provider incurs in the arbitration, including, but not limited to, attorneys or expert witnesses. Fees and costs may be awarded as provided pursuant to applicable law. In addition to any rights to recover fees and costs under applicable law, if Content Provider provides notice and negotiate in good faith with Supermind as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution” and the arbitrator concludes that Content Provider is the prevailing party in the arbitration, Content Provider will be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator.

Class Action Waiver

Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless both Content Provider and Supermind specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration. If Content Provider chooses to pursue its Dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to such Content Provider. Neither Content Provider, nor any other user of the Supermind Network can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.

Jury Waiver

Content Provider understands and agrees that by entering into this Agreement Content Provider and Supermind are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, Content Provider and Supermind might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring Disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that Content Provider would have if it went to court, such as the right to appeal and to certain types of discovery, may be more limited or may also be waived.

Severability

If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision, and the remainder of this Provision will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the Dispute will be decided by a court.

Continuation

This Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the parties agree that if Supermind makes any change to this Provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), Content Provider may reject any such change and require Supermind to adhere to the language in this Provision if a dispute between the parties arises.

General Provisions

This Agreement is made under and will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (except that body of law controlling conflicts of law) and specifically excluding from application to this Agreement that law known as the United Nations Convention on the International Sale of Goods. Except for Disputes subject to arbitration as described above, any disputes relating to this Agreement will be heard in the courts located in San Francisco in the State of California.
