11. Dispute Resolution – Arbitration & Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND GOVERNS HOW YOU AND TRACECAT CAN BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER.

You agree that, in the event any dispute or claim arises out of or relating to your use of the Services, you will contact us at privacy@tracecat.com and you and Tracecat will attempt in good faith to negotiate a written resolution of the matter directly.

You agree that if the matter remains unresolved for 30 days after notification (via certified mail or personal delivery), such matter will be deemed a "Dispute."

Binding Arbitration

You and Tracecat agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or to your use of the Services (collectively "Disputes") will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement of intellectual property rights.

This means that you and Tracecat both agree to waive the right to a trial by jury. You may bring a claim against Tracecat in "small claims" court, instead of by arbitration, but only if the claim is eligible and brought on an individual, non-class basis.

Class Action Waiver

You and Tracecat agree that any proceedings to resolve Disputes will be conducted on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. This means that you and Tracecat both agree to waive the right to participate as a plaintiff as a class member in any class action proceeding.

Arbitration Administration and Rules

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect, except as modified by this section.

Arbitration Location and Procedure

Unless you and Tracecat agree otherwise, the seat of the arbitration shall be in San Francisco, California. If your claim does not exceed USD$10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents, unless you request a hearing.

Arbitrator's Decision and Governing Law

The arbitrator shall apply California law consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized by law. Judgment on the arbitration may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

12. Governing Law

Except as provided in Section 11 or expressly provided in writing otherwise, this Agreement and your use of the Services will be governed by, and will be construed under, the laws of the State of California, without regard to choice of law principles. This choice of law provision is only intended to specify the use of California law to interpret this Agreement.

13. No Agency; No Employment

No agency, partnership, joint venture, employer-employee or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.

14. General Provisions

Failure by Tracecat to enforce any provision(s) of this Agreement will not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right.

This Agreement constitutes the complete and exclusive agreement between you and Tracecat with respect to its subject matter, and supersedes and governs any and all prior agreements or communications.

The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be interpreted in a manner which makes them valid, legal, and enforceable. Except for the "Class Action Waiver" in Section 11, in the event any provision is found to be partially or wholly invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified or restructured to the extent necessary to render it valid, legal, and enforceable.

This Agreement may not be assigned or transferred by you without our prior written approval. We may assign or transfer this Agreement without your consent, including but not limited to assignments: (1) to a parent or subsidiary, (2) to an acquirer of assets, or (3) to any other successor or acquirer.
