personnel or contractors may contact you, from time to time, via computer- generated instant messages or emails for

monitoring user activity. If you choose to respond to such initiated message or email, the User may receive one or more
further communications from our personnel or contractors. You understand, acknowledge, and agree that no physical
meeting will ever take place and that the exchange above of communications is for your entertainment and amusement, to

CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH AUTHORIZED OR

-
Dispute Resolution.
-
ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
-
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A
LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A
CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
-
This Section does not apply if you are (i) a resident of the EEA, or any jurisdiction which does not allow these
arbitration provisions; (ii) if you opt out of arbitration as provided in this section, or (iii) qualify for the
exceptions provided below.
-
INFORMAL PROCESS FIRST. You and the Company agree that in the event of any dispute between you and the Company Entities,
either party will first contact the other party and make a good faith sustained effort to resolve the dispute before
resorting to more formal means of resolution, including without limitation, any court action, after first allowing the
receiving party 30 days in which to respond. Both you and the Company agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a
condition precedent which must be satisfied before initiating any arbitration against the other party.
-
ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER. After the informal dispute resolution process, any remaining dispute,
controversy, or claim (collectively, "Claim") relating in any way to the Company Entities including the Services, the
Prizes, and any use or access or lack of access thereto, will be resolved by binding arbitration, including threshold
questions of arbitrability of the Claim. You and the Company agree that any Claim will be settled by final and binding
arbitration, using the English language, administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures
(the “JAMS Rules”) then in effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section, and as of
the date of these Terms). Because your contract with the Company, these Terms, and this Arbitration Agreement 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 will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with the JAMS Rules.
Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction. Any arbitration under these Terms
will take place on an individual basis – class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. You understand that by
agreeing to these Terms, you and the Company are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class
action or class arbitration. Unless ordered otherwise, the arbitration will take place in the State of Utah, unless the
parties agree to conduct proceedings remotely, by telephonic or computer technology means.
-
EXCEPTIONS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and the Company agree that the following types of disputes will be
resolved in a court of proper jurisdiction:
-
disputes or claims within the jurisdiction of a small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional and dollar limits
that may apply, as long as it is brought and maintained as an individual dispute and not as a class, representative, or
consolidated action or proceeding; disputes or claims where the sole form of relief sought is injunctive relief
(including public injunctive relief); or
-
intellectual property disputes.
-
COSTS OF ARBITRATION. Each party is responsible for its own costs and expenses related to arbitration and the Claim,
except that fees and costs may be awarded as provided pursuant to applicable law. 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 JAMS rules.
-
OPT-OUT OF ARBITRATION. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration provisions set forth in these
Terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out to [email protected] or to the U.S. mailing address listed in the
"How to Contact Us" section at the end of these Terms. The notice must be sent to the Company within thirty (30) days of
your first registering to use or use of the Services or agreeing to these Terms; otherwise you shall be bound to
arbitrate disputes on a non-class basis in accordance with these Terms. If you opt out of only the arbitration
provisions, and not also the class action waiver, the class action waiver still applies. You may not opt out of only the
class action waiver and not the arbitration provisions. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, the Company also
will not be bound by them.
-
WAIVER OF RIGHT TO BRING CLASS ACTION AND REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you
and the Company each agree that any proceeding to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy will be brought and
conducted ONLY IN THE RESPECTIVE PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS PART OF ANY CLASS (OR PURPORTED CLASS),
CONSOLIDATED, MULTIPLE-PLAINTIFF, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING ("CLASS ACTION"). You and the Company AGREE TO
WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION. You and the Company EXPRESSLY WAIVE
ANY ABILITY TO MAINTAIN A CLASS ACTION IN ANY FORUM. If the dispute is subject to arbitration, THE ARBITRATOR WILL NOT
HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO COMBINE OR AGGREGATE CLAIMS, CONDUCT A CLASS ACTION, OR MAKE AN AWARD TO ANY PERSON OR ENTITY NOT
A PARTY TO THE ARBITRATION. Further, you and the Company agree that the ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS FOR
MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND IT MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CLASS ACTION. For the avoidance of
doubt, however, you can seek public injunctive relief to the extent authorized by law and consistent with the Exceptions
clause above.
-
IF THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR FOUND UNENFORCEABLE, THEN, UNLESS THE PARTIES MUTUALLY AGREE
OTHERWISE, THE PARTIES’ AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE SHALL BE NULL AND VOID WITH RESPECT TO SUCH PROCEEDING SO LONG AS THE
PROCEEDING IS PERMITTED TO PROCEED AS A CLASS ACTION. If a court decides that the limitations of this paragraph are
deemed invalid or unenforceable, any putative class, private attorney general, or consolidated or representative action
must be brought in a court of proper jurisdiction and not in arbitration.
-
