12. General Terms
A. Entire Agreement
This agreement can be changed only in writing signed by Fantasy Tribes.
This Agreement, together with any other terms that govern your use of Fantasy Tribes Services, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Fantasy Tribes. The Agreement may not be amended or modified unless made in writing and signed by Fantasy Tribes. The failure of Fantasy Tribes to exercise any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of the right or any other right. If any part of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable, all other parts of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
B. Governing Law
This Agreement is subject to (i) the laws of the State of New Jersey, excluding its conflicts-of-law rules, govern this Agreement and your use of Fantasy Services; and (ii) you expressly agree that for claims and disputes not subject to the arbitration agreement below, exclusive jurisdiction for any claim or action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or Fantasy Tribes Services shall be the federal or state courts that govern Middlesex County, New Jersey, and you expressly consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction of such courts.
C. Export
You must follow all export laws, and you agree you are not a prohibited person under export laws.
You agree to follow U.S. and other export control laws and agree not to transfer any Fantasy Tribes Services to a foreign national, or national destination, that is prohibited by such laws.
13. Changes to this Agreement
This agreement can be updated by Fantasy Tribes at any time. If you do not agree to certain meaningful changes, you may not be able to play our Content Software.
We reserve the right to modify this Agreement at any time, effective upon posting an updated version of the Agreement. If we make any material changes to the Agreement, we will notify you. You should regularly review this Agreement, as your continued use of any of the Fantasy Tribes Services after any such changes constitutes your agreement to those changes. If you do not agree to this Agreement or any modifications to this Agreement, you should immediately cease using Fantasy Tribes Services.
14. Dispute Resolutions by Binding Arbitration
If you have a dispute, you agree to send details in writing to us, and then arbitrate. You agree that any claim you bring against Fantasy Tribes is in your individual capacity, and not as a class member, class representative, or as part of a class, collective or representative action.
This Section 14 offers a streamlined way to resolve disputes between us if they arise. You and Fantasy Tribes agree that good-faith informal efforts to resolve disputes often can result in a prompt, low-cost, and mutually beneficial outcome.
This Section 14 is an agreement between you and Fantasy Tribes, and applies to our respective agents, employees, subsidiaries, predecessors, successors, beneficiaries and assigns. This agreement to arbitrate evidences a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section 14 and any arbitration carried out under this Section. This Section 14 shall be interpreted broadly and shall survive termination of this Agreement.
A. Claims Covered by Arbitration
All disputes, claims or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Fantasy Tribes Services and its marketing, or the relationship between you and Fantasy Tribes, including the validity, enforceability, and scope of this Section 14 ("Disputes"), shall be determined exclusively by binding arbitration. This includes claims that accrued before you entered into this Agreement.
To the extent the parties have related arbitrable and non-arbitrable disputes, the arbitrable disputes shall proceed first in arbitration and the non-arbitrable disputes shall be stayed, and any applicable statutes of limitations tolled, pending completion of the arbitration.
B. Informal Negotiations
You and Fantasy Tribes shall first attempt to resolve any Dispute informally before initiating arbitration. The informal negotiations begin upon receipt of written notice from one party to the other ("Notice of Dispute"). You must mail an individualized Notice of Dispute to: Fantasy Tribes LLC, 333 Plainfield Avenue, Apartment A, Edison, NJ 08817. The Notice of Dispute must include: (a) your name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address associated with your Fantasy Tribes Account; (b) a description of the nature and basis of your dispute; (c) your proposed resolution; and (d) your personal signature. If we have a dispute with you, we will send a Notice of Dispute with the same information to the email address associated with your account. You and Fantasy Tribes must participate in informal negotiations for at least 60 days after receiving the Notice of Dispute, unless the parties mutually agree to an extension. The party sending the Notice of Dispute may not file any demand for arbitration before the 60-day period (or any mutually-agreed upon extended period).
The arbitrator shall dismiss any arbitration filed without fully and completely complying with these informal dispute resolution procedures. If an arbitration is dismissed because a party willfully failed to comply with these informal dispute resolution procedures, the arbitrator may order the non-compliant party to pay any arbitration filing fees and costs incurred by the other party. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process described in this paragraph.
C. Binding Arbitration
If you and Fantasy Tribes cannot resolve a Dispute informally, you or Fantasy Tribes may elect to have the Dispute finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. A party initiating an arbitration shall provide with its arbitration demand all of the information required in the Notice of Dispute, as well as a certification that the party complied with the informal dispute resolution procedures. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules ("AAA Consumer Rules") and, if applicable, its Mass Supplementary Arbitration Rules ("AAA Mass Arbitration Rules"), which are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879, with the following modifications:
1. Arbitration fees and costs shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules or AAA Mass Arbitration Rules (if applicable), unless as otherwise stated in this arbitration agreement.
2. If the Dispute does not exceed $25,000, the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of written submissions, unless the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary for any reason, including but not limited to because a hearing is necessary to afford a party a full and fair opportunity to present its claims or defenses.
3. The parties may bring any dispositive motion or motions during the course of the proceedings.
4. The arbitrator shall make a decision in writing, which will include the findings and conclusions on which the decision is based. The arbitrator has the authority to issue any relief allowed by applicable law, but the arbitrator shall have no authority to issue any relief on any basis other than an individual basis. The arbitrator 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.
The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. You and Fantasy Tribes may litigate in court to compel arbitration, to stay proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
D. Class Action Waiver
You and Fantasy Tribes agree that any and all Disputes between the parties shall be resolved only in individual arbitration. The parties expressly waive the right to have any Dispute brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated as a class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, or representative action, and neither an arbitrator nor an arbitration provider shall have any authority to hear, arbitrate, or administer any class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, or representative action, or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration. The parties also expressly waive the right to seek, recover, or obtain any non-individual relief. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, this Class Action Waiver does not prevent you or Fantasy Tribes from participating in a classwide, collective, or representative settlement of claims. If governing law (after taking FAA preemption into account) does not allow the parties to waive claims for public injunctive relief, any claim for public injunctive relief must be heard by a court, not an arbitrator, but the parties' non-arbitrable disputes shall be stayed pending arbitration, as stated in paragraph A.
E. Grouped Arbitrations
To the extent permitted by applicable law and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to increase efficiency of resolution, in the event 50 or more similar arbitration demands are filed within a 30-day period:
(a) the parties shall cooperate to organize the arbitration demands into randomized groups of no more than 50 demands (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 50 arbitration demands remaining, a final group consisting of the remaining demands);
(b) AAA shall assess one set of filing and administrative fees per group and shall assign one arbitrator per group, subject to any applicable disclosure and disqualification procedures available under applicable law;
(c) AAA shall set one initial conference per group;
(d) regardless of the grouping described above, the arbitrator shall resolve all arbitrations within a group on an individual basis;
(e) the first group of 50 arbitrations shall proceed on an individual basis, while the remaining cases are stayed and applicable statutes of limitations for those cases are tolled;
(f) the parties shall use their best efforts to complete the initial 50 individual arbitrations within 120 days after the initial conference, and shall engage in good-faith mediation following resolution of the initial 50 individual arbitrations;
(g) if mediation is unsuccessful, the remaining cases shall proceed on an individual basis in groups of 50 cases (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 50 arbitration demands remaining, a final group consisting of the remaining demands); and
(h) no final award from an arbitrator in any one arbitration shall have preclusive effect in any other arbitration.
The parties agree to cooperate in good faith to implement such a grouped approach to administration of the arbitration demands. If any similar arbitration demands were originally processed as individual arbitration demands before this grouping procedure was commenced, further proceedings, including the assessment of further arbitration filing or administration fees to either party shall be governed by the procedures set forth in this paragraph E.
F. Location
If you live in the United States, arbitration will take place in the county in which you reside. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in the County of San Mateo, State of California, United States of America, so that an arbitrator familiar with California law can be appointed, and if the arbitrator determines that the proceedings will take place in person instead of by electronic or telephonic means, the arbitrator will select a location that is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances. You and Fantasy Tribes agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts in the County of Middlesex, State of New Jersey, United States of America to compel arbitration, to stay the proceeding pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
G. Severability
In the event any portion of this arbitration agreement is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this agreement to arbitrate will be enforceable.
