6.9.  Dispute Resolution Provision

You and StatMuse agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, or to the use of the Service (collectively “Disputes”) will be resolved according to the provision of this section

(a)  Informal Resolution.  We will first try to resolve any Dispute informally. Accordingly, neither of us may start a formal proceeding (except for Disputes described in Section 10.4 below) for at least 30 days after one of us notifies the other of a Dispute in writing. Notice of the Dispute will include a brief written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and the relief requested. You will send your notice by email to support@statmuse.com AND to 5348 Vegas Drive, #246, Las Vegas, NV 89108.

(b)  Formal Resolution.   If the Dispute is not resolved informally, we agree that it will be resolved by binding arbitration and not in courts of general jurisdiction ; except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

You acknowledge and agree that you and StatMuse are each waiving the right to a trial by jury  or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and StatMuse otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Dispute Resolution” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Dispute Resolution” section will survive any termination of these Terms.

(i)  Arbitration Rules and Governing Law.  The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. (The AAA Rules are available at  www.adr.org/  or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this section.

(ii)  Arbitration Process.  A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at  www.adr.org/  and a separate form for California residents at www.adr.org/ .) The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Nevada and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.

(iii)  Arbitration Location and Procedure.  Unless you and StatMuse otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and StatMuse submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

(iv)  Arbitrator’s Decision.  The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law.

(v)  Fees.  Your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees will be solely as set forth in the AAA Rules. However, if your claim for damages does not exceed $10,000, StatMuse will pay all such fees unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in your Demand for Arbitration was frivolous or was brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).

(vi)  No Class Action . YOU AND STATMUSE AGREE THAT EACH 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, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

(vii)  Changes.  Notwithstanding the provisions of the “Modification” section above, if StatMuse amends this “Dispute Resolution” section after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you will be notified in accordance with these Terms. You may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email to support@statmuse.com) within 30 days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated Date” above or in the date of StatMuse’s email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and StatMuse in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

(viii)  Enforceability.  If the “No Class Action” section of this Dispute Resolution Provision is found to be unenforceable, or if the entire Dispute Resolution Provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the Dispute Resolution Provision will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described above will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
