14. Governing Law, Arbitration, and Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver

A. Governing Law. 

You agree that: (i) the Products and Services will be deemed solely based in California; and (ii) the Products and Services will be deemed passive such that they do not give rise to personal jurisdiction over us, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than California.  These Terms will be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California, without respect to its conflict of laws principles.  The parties acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) (“FAA”) governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement and preempts all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law.  If the FAA is found to not apply to any issue that arises from or relates to the Arbitration Agreement, then that issue will be resolved under and governed by the laws of the State of California.  The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.  You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in San Francisco County, California for any actions for which we retain 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 our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other Intellectual Property Rights or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration Agreement, including any provisional relief required to prevent irreparable harm.  You agree that San Francisco County, California is the proper and exclusive forum for any appeals of an arbitration award or for trial court proceedings in the event that the Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable.

B. Arbitration. 

Read this Section carefully because it requires the parties to arbitrate their disputes and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from SuperBill.  This Arbitration Agreement applies to and governs any dispute, controversy, or claim between you and SuperBill that arises out of or relates to, directly or indirectly:  (i) these Terms, including the formation, existence, breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, or enforceability thereof; (ii) the Products and Services, including access to or use of the Products and Services, as well as receipt of any advertising, marketing, or other communications from SuperBill; (iii) any transactions through, by, or using the Products and Services; or (iv) any other aspect of your relationship or transactions with SuperBill (each, a “Claim,” and, collectively, “Claims”).  This Arbitration Agreement will apply, without limitation, to all Claims that arose or were asserted before or after your acceptance of these Terms.

If you are a new user of the Products and Services, you can reject and opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement within thirty (30) days of accepting these Terms by emailing SuperBill at support@thesuperbill.com with your full name and stating your intent to opt-out of this Arbitration Agreement.  Note that opting out of this Arbitration Agreement does not affect any other part of these Terms, including the provisions regarding governing law or the courts in which any disputes must be brought.

For any Claim, you agree to first contact us at support@thesuperbill.com and to attempt to resolve the Claim with us informally.  In the unlikely event that SuperBill has not been able to resolve a Claim it has with you within sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve such Claim exclusively through binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) before a single arbitrator (the “Arbitrator”), under the Expedited Procedures then in effect for AAA (the “Rules”), except as otherwise provided herein, or as otherwise determined by the Arbitrator.  In the event of any conflict between the Rules and this Arbitration Agreement, this Arbitration Agreement will control.  AAA may be contacted at www.adr.org, where the Rules are also available.  The arbitration will be conducted in San Francisco County, California, unless you and SuperBill agree otherwise.  If you are using the Products and Services for commercial purposes, each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing and administrative and Arbitrator fees in accordance with the Rules, and the award rendered by the Arbitrator will include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses.  If you are an individual using the Products and Services for non-commercial purposes:  (A) AAA may require you to pay a fee for the initiation of your case, unless you apply for and successfully obtain a fee waiver from AAA; (B) the award rendered by the Arbitrator may include your costs of arbitration, your reasonable attorneys’ fees, and your reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses; and (C) you may sue in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction, on an individual basis only, without first engaging in arbitration, but this does not absolve you of your commitment to engage in the informal dispute resolution process.  Any judgment on the award rendered by the Arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.  You and SuperBill agree that the Arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, will have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the scope, interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable, or relating to any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, unconscionability, or estoppel.  The Arbitrator will also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to contract formation and whether the Terms, or any provision of the Terms, are unconscionable or illusory.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, nothing in this Arbitration Agreement will be deemed as preventing SuperBill from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of its data security, Intellectual Property Rights, or other proprietary rights; or as preventing you from asserting claims in a small claims court, provided that your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances on only an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

If this Arbitration Agreement is found to be void, unenforceable, or unlawful, in whole or in part, the void, unenforceable, or unlawful provision, in whole or in part, will be severed.  Severance of the void, unenforceable, or unlawful provision, in whole or in part, will have no impact on the remaining provisions of this Arbitration Agreement, which will remain in force, or on the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining Claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver is found to be void, unenforceable, or unlawful, in whole or in part, because it would prevent you from seeking public injunctive relief, then any dispute regarding the entitlement to such relief (and only that relief) must be severed from arbitration and may be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction.  All other claims for relief subject to arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement will be arbitrated under its terms, and the parties agree that litigation of any dispute regarding the entitlement to public injunctive relief will be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration.

C. Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver. 

WITH RESPECT TO ALL PERSONS AND ENTITIES, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY HAVE OBTAINED OR USED THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES FOR PERSONAL, COMMERCIAL, OR OTHER PURPOSES, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES’ INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.  THIS MUTUAL WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR ENTITY’S CLAIMS.  YOU AND SUPERBILL MUTUALLY AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY TO AN INDIVIDUAL CLAIMANT AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S).  ANY RELIEF AWARDED MAY NOT AFFECT OTHER USERS OF THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES.  YOU AND SUPERBILL FURTHER AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND SUPERBILL ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO BRING, JOIN, OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER.

15. General

A. Assignment. 

These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you, but may be assigned by SuperBill without restriction.  Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof will be null and void.

B. Notification Procedures. 

SuperBill may provide notifications, whether such notifications are required by Applicable Law or are for marketing or other business-related purposes, to you via email notice, written or hard copy notice, or through posting of such notice on the Site, as determined by SuperBill in its sole discretion.  SuperBill reserves the right to determine the form and means of providing notifications to users of the Products and Services, provided that you may opt out of certain means of notification as described in these Terms.  By providing SuperBill your email address, you consent to our using that email address to send you notices relating to the Products and Services, including any notices required by Applicable Law, in lieu of communication by postal mail.  We may also use your email address to send you other messages, such as messages regarding changes to features of the Products and Services and special offers.  If you do not want to receive such email messages, you may opt out of receiving such email messages by clicking on the “unsubscribe” link in the email message.  Opting out may prevent you from receiving email messages regarding updates, improvements, or offers.  SuperBill is not responsible for any automatic filtering you or your network provider may apply to email notifications we send to the email address you provide us.  

C. Entire Agreement/Severability. 

These Terms (including, if applicable, the Order Form(s)) constitute the entire agreement between you and SuperBill concerning the Products and Services.  Except as otherwise stated in the Arbitration Agreement, if any provision of these Terms is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the invalidity of such provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms, which will remain in full force and effect, except that, in the event of unenforceability of the Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver, the entire Arbitration Agreement will be unenforceable.

D. No Waiver. 

No waiver of any term of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or of any other term, and SuperBill’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
