12. Legal Disputes.
12.1 This Agreement and any action related thereto will be governed by the
Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of New
York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. Except as otherwise
expressly set forth in Section 13 (Dispute Resolution), the exclusive jurisdiction for
all Disputes (defined below) that you and Vic.ai are not required to arbitrate will be
the state and federal courts located in the County of New York, New York, and you
and Vic.ai each waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.
13. Dispute Resolution.
13.1 Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any dispute, claim or
controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination,
enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Services
(collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual
arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or
proceeding. You and Vic.ai agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the
interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement, and that you and Vic.ai are each
waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration
provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
13.2 Exceptions. As limited exceptions to Section 13.1 above: (i) we both may seek to
resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) we each retain the
right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin)
the infringement or misappropriation of our intellectual property rights.
13.3 Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted
by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration
Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this Agreement. The
AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party
who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to
AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA
provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org.
Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) where you live,
unless we both agree to a different location. The parties agree that the arbitrator
shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation,
applicability, enforceability and scope of this arbitration agreement.
13.4 Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be
governed by the AAA Rules.
13.5 Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 13.2 above, the
arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted
by either party and 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. To the extent that you or we prevail on
a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the
primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury
to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil
court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that
litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the
outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
13.6 Class Action Waiver. YOU AND VIC.AI 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, if
the parties’ dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not
consolidate another person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise
