Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Gauss in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 26 and 26.1, you and Gauss agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by bindingarbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND GAUSS ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
2. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 25, nothing in these Termswill be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue anenforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
3. Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Section 24 within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to Gauss Surgical, Inc., Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, 4085 Campbell Ave., Suite 200, Menlo Park, CA 94025 that specifies: your full legal name,the email address or phone number associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Gauss receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 24 will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 35. The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice
4. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Gauss will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Gauss. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
5. Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitrationmust first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail or by sending a text message to the phone number associated with your account (with respect to Individuals and Providers, as applicable) (“Notice of Arbitration”). Gauss’s address for Notice is: Gauss Surgical, Inc, 4085 Campbell Ave., Suite 200, Menlo Park, CA 94025. If Gauss sends a text message to you to provide Notice of Arbitration, Gauss will reimburse you for any additional costs from your carrier for such text message The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement todo so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or Gauss may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Gauss must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Gauss in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, Gauss will pay to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded bythe arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.
6. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Gauss will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in San Mateo County, California, but if theclaim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (orparish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forthin Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Gauss for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in whichthe arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may makerulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
7. No Class Actions. YOU AND GAUSS AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Gauss agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
8. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Gauss makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Gauss’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Gauss’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with Gauss will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.
9. Enforceability. If Section 30 or the entirety of this Section 24 is found tobe unenforceable, or if Gauss receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Section 24 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 35 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
