15. Arbitration Agreement & Class Action Waiver
Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights.
Informal Resolution First
Before initiating arbitration, you and we agree to make a good-faith effort to resolve any dispute informally. You must notify us in writing at contact@wearemachina.com with a description of the dispute and the resolution you seek. The parties will have 60 days (extendable by mutual agreement) to resolve the dispute informally, including through at least one telephone or video call. Completing this informal process is a condition precedent to filing arbitration.
Binding Arbitration
Except as set forth below, you and Anchor Type LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website (a "Claim") will be resolved by final, binding arbitration under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA Rules"), available at adr.org. A single arbitrator will preside over each arbitration. The arbitrator may award any relief available under applicable law on an individual basis.
The Federal Arbitration Act governs this arbitration agreement. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve disputes about the interpretation, validity, or enforceability of these Terms.
To initiate arbitration, send a written request describing your Claim to contact@wearemachina.com at least five (5) days before filing with the AAA.
Class Action Waiver
YOU AND ANCHOR TYPE LLC EACH AGREE THAT CLAIMS MAY ONLY BE BROUGHT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS.
Exceptions
Either party may bring qualifying Claims in small claims court. Either party may also seek emergency injunctive or other provisional relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to preserve the status quo pending arbitration. Nothing in this section limits your ability to file a complaint with applicable government agencies.
Jury Trial Waiver
IF A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT FOR ANY REASON, YOU AND WE EACH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
16. Termination
We reserve the right to terminate or restrict your access to the Website at any time, for any reason, in our sole discretion, without notice or liability. If you violate any of these Terms, your license to use the Website automatically terminates. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive, including Sections 6, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, and 17.
17. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law principles.
For any claims not subject to arbitration, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in San Benito County, California, and waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue.
18. General Provisions
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, that provision will be severed from these Terms and will not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions.
Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms (including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset sale) without your consent. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Anchor Type LLC regarding your use of the Website and supersede all prior agreements.
19. Notice to California Residents
Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, California users are entitled to the following consumer rights notice: The Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs may be contacted in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.
