Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in all respects by the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.

Jurisdiction. Any claim or dispute related to, arising out of or involving this Agreement (“Claim”) must be resolved by a court located in San Mateo County, California or, if there is federal subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. Both you and Company consent to exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue in these courts and waive any defense of lack of personal jurisdiction or venue. Further, all Claims filed or brought contrary to this provision and that below related to dispute resolution shall be considered improperly filed. Should you file a Claim improperly, Company may recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, provided that Company has notified you or your legal representative in writing of the improperly filed Claim and you have failed to withdraw it promptly.

Dispute Resolution. Before you may file or bring a Claim, you must first contact us and attempt to resolve it with us informally. If we cannot resolve the Claim informally, Company will consider reasonable requests to resolve the Claim through dispute resolution mechanisms such as mediation or arbitration, as alternatives to litigation.

For any Claim (excluding those seeking injunctive or other equitable relief) where the total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, either party may elect to resolve it in a cost effective manner through binding non-appearance-based arbitration. In the event a party elects arbitration, they may initiate it through an established alternative dispute resolution (“ADR”) provider of their choice. The ADR provider and the parties must comply with the following rules: (i) the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone or online and be solely based on written submissions, the specific manner to be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration; (ii) the arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and (iii) any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
