Arbitration Agreement & Waiver of Certain Rights
- You agree that, except as set forth below, any disputes between us (including any disputes between you and a third-party agent of Cider) through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and Cider hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim (defined below). All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and Cider or you and a third-party agent of Cider (a “Claim”) will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA Rules”). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator’s decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration proceedings will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration, by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies, or as specifically permitted by state law. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. However, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable.
- If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Cider will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator’s fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
- This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or Cider from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and Cider also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and Cider retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these TOU, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these TOU.
- Neither you nor Cider may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or Cider’s individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
- If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section shall continue in full force and effect. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration you and Cider each waive any right to a jury trial. No waiver of any provision of this Section of the TOU will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this TOU. The arbitrator may award in the arbitration the same damages or other relief available under applicable law, including injunctive and declaratory relief, as if the action were brought in court on an individual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or herein, the arbitrator may not issue a “public injunction” and any such “public injunction” may be awarded only by a federal or state court. If either party seeks a “public injunction,” all other claims and prayers for relief must be adjudicated in arbitration first and any prayer or claim for a “public injunction” in federal or state court stayed until the arbitration is completed, after which the federal or state court can adjudicate the party’s claim or prayer for “public injunctive relief.” In doing so, the federal or state court is bound under principles of claim or issue preclusion by the decision of the arbitrator. This Section of the TOU will survive the termination of your relationship with Cider.
- THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR CIDER WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
- Miscellaneous.
- To the extent that the Services, or any part thereof, conflict or are inconsistent with the TOU, the TOU shall prevail.
- Cider’s failure to enforce any provision of the TOU shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision nor of the right to enforce such provision.
- Cider’s rights under the TOU shall survive any expiration or termination of the TOU.
- The TOU shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, United States of America without regard to the principles of conflict of law.
- If there is any dispute relating to the Site or these Terms, you and Cider agree to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts of Santa Clara County, State of California, U.S.A. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be struck and the remaining provisions will remain in full effect. If you or others violate these Terms and we take no immediate action, this in no way limits or waives our rights, such as our right to take action in the future or in similar situations.
- Without limiting any rights of Cider under this TOU, it shall be clarified that Cider is entitled to always in Cider’s sole discretion block User’s access to the Services or stop providing, terminate or disable User’s use of the Services, even if Cider has previously allowed User to use the Services.
- We reserve the right to change these Terms at any time, without notice, at our sole discretion. Please check this page periodically for any updates. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, U.S.A., excluding any conflict of laws, rules or principles. If there is any dispute relating to the Site or these Terms, you and Cider agree to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts of Santa Clara County, State of California, U.S.A. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be struck and the remaining provisions will remain in full effect. If you or others violate these Terms and we take no immediate action, this in no way limits or waives our rights, such as our right to take action in the future or in similar situations.
