MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
-
PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION CAREFULLY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR
RIGHTS. EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM
THAT YOU MAY HAVE IN THE FUTURE MUST BE RESOLVED THROUGH FINAL AND
BINDING CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU
ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. THE RIGHTS THAT YOU WOULD
HAVE IF YOU WENT TO COURT, SUCH AS DISCOVERY OR THE RIGHT TO APPEAL,
MAY BE MORE LIMITED OR MAY NOT EXIST.
-
YOU AGREE THAT YOU MAY ONLY BRING A CLAIM IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL
CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF (LEAD OR OTHERWISE) OR CLASS MEMBER
IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. YOU FURTHER
AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OR CLAIMS
OR OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS
PROCEEDING.
-
YOU AND THE COMPANY, AND EACH OF ITS RESPECTIVE AGENTS, CORPORATE
PARENTS, SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST,
SUCCESSORS, AND ASSIGNS, AGREE TO ARBITRATION (EXCEPT FOR MATTERS
THAT MAY BE TAKEN TO SMALL CLAIMS COURT), AS THE EXCLUSIVE FORM OF
DISPUTE RESOLUTION EXCEPT AS PROVIDED FOR BELOW, FOR ALL DISPUTES
AND CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE
SERVICE, OR THE PRIVACY POLICY, UNLESS YOU ARE LOCATED IN A
JURISDICTION THAT PROHIBITS THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF ARBITRATION FOR
DISPUTE RESOLUTION.
-
Arbitration is more informal way to settle disputes than a lawsuit
in court. A neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury is used in
arbitration, which allows for more limited discovery than in court,
and is subject to very limited review by courts. The same damages
and relief that a court can award can be awarded by arbitrators.
Please see more information about arbitration at http://www.adr.org.
-
A party which intends to seek arbitration must first send to the
other a written notice of intent to arbitrate (a "Notice") by an
international courier with a tracking mechanism, or, in the absence
of a mailing address provided by you to us, via any other method
available to us, including via e-mail. The Notice to the Company
must be addressed to: Florinis 7, Greg Tower, 2nd Floor, 1065,
Nicosia, Cyprus (as applicable, the "Arbitration Notice Address").
The Notice shall (i) describe the basis and nature of the claim or
dispute; and (ii) set the specific relief sought (the "Demand"). If
you and the Company do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim
within 30 days after the Notice is received, then you or we may
commence an arbitration proceeding as set forth below or file an
individual claim in small claims court.
-
THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") WILL EXCLUSIVELY
ADMINISTER THE ARBITRATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL
ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER
RELATED DISPUTES (THE "Rules"), AS MODIFIED BY THESE TERMS.
-
If you commence arbitration against us, you are required to provide
a second Notice to the Company at the Arbitration Notice Address
within seven (7) days of arbitration commencement. The Rules and AAA
forms are available online at http://www.adr.org. Unless your Demand
is equal to or greater than $1,000 or was filed in bad faith, in
which case you are solely responsible for the payment of the filing
fee, if you are required to pay a filing fee to commence an
arbitration against us, then we will promptly reimburse you for your
confirmed payment of the filing fee upon our receipt of the second
Notice at the Arbitration Notice Address that you have commenced
arbitration along with a receipt evidencing payment of the filing
fee.
-
The arbitration shall be conducted exclusively in English. A single,
independent and impartial arbitrator with his or her primary place
of business in Alexandria, Virginia (if you are from the United
States) or in Nicosia, Cyprus (if you are not from the United
States) will be appointed pursuant to the Rules, as modified herein.
You and the Company agree to comply with the following rules, which
are intended to streamline the arbitration process and reduce the
costs and burdens on the parties: (i) the arbitration will be
conducted online and/or be solely based on written submissions, the
specific manner to be chosen by the party initiating the
arbitration; (ii) the arbitration will not require any personal
appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually
agreed in writing by the parties; and (iii) any judgment on the
award the arbitrator renders may be entered in any court of
competent jurisdiction.
-
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED UNDER LAW, YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE
THAT YOU AND THE COMPANY 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, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CONSOLIDATED
PROCEEDING. FURTHER, YOU AGREE THAT THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT
CONSOLIDATE PROCEEDINGS OF MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY
NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS
PROCEEDING, AND THAT IF THIS SPECIFIC PROVISION IS FOUND TO BE
UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION
SECTION WILL BE NULL AND VOID.
-
The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to
resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, construction,
validity, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms, Privacy
Policy, and this arbitration provision. The arbitrator shall have
the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether this
arbitration clause can be enforced against a non-party to this
agreement and whether a non-party to these Terms can enforce its
provision against you or us.
-
Barring extraordinary circumstances, the arbitrator will issue his
or her final, confidential decision within 120 days from the date
the arbitrator is appointed. The arbitrator may extend this time
limit for an additional 30 days upon a showing of good cause and in
the interests of justice. All arbitration proceedings will be closed
to the public and confidential, and all records relating thereto
will be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court
confirmation of the arbitration award. The award of the arbitrator
will be in writing and will include a statement setting forth the
reasons for the disposition of any claim. The arbitrator shall apply
the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without regard to its
conflicts of laws principles in conducting the arbitration. You
acknowledge that these terms and your use of the Service evidences a
transaction involving interstate commerce. The United States Federal
Arbitration Act ("FAA") will govern the interpretation, enforcement,
and proceedings pursuant to this Section 12. Any award rendered
shall be final, subject to appeal under the FAA.
-
The abovestated provisions of this Section 12 shall not apply to any
claim in which either party seeks equitable relief to protect such
party's copyrights, trademarks, patents, or other intellectual
property. For the avoidance of doubt, you agree that, in the event
the Company or a third party breaches these Terms, the damage or
harm, if any, caused to you will not entitle you to seek injunctive
or other equitable relief against us, and your only remedy will be
for monetary damages, subject to the limitations of liability set
forth in these Terms.
-
You and we agree that, notwithstanding any other rights a party may
have at law or in equity, any claim arising out of or related to
these Terms (including the Privacy Policy) or the Service, excluding
a claim for indemnification, must be initiated with the AAA or filed
in small claims court in Alexandria, Virginia within one (1) year
after the claim accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is
permanently and forever barred. This one (1) year period includes
the thirty (30) day pre-dispute procedure set forth in sub-clause
12.5 above.
-
All claims you bring against the Company must be resolved in
accordance with this Section. All claims filed or brought contrary
to this Section shall be considered improperly filed. Should you
file a claim contrary to this Section, the Company may recover
attorneys' fees and reimbursement of its costs, provided that the
Company has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim,
and you fail to promptly withdraw such claim.
-
In the event that we make any material change to this arbitration
provision (other than a change to our Arbitration Notice Address),
you may reject any such change by sending us written notice to our
Arbitration Notice Address within thirty (30) days of the change, in
which case you shall terminate your use of the Service immediately,
and this Section, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments
you reject, will survive the termination of these Terms.
-
If only clause 12.9 paragraph above or the entirety of this Section
12 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section
12 will be null and void and, in such case, the parties agree that
the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 13 will
govern any action arising out of or related to this Agreement.
-
YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WOULD HAVE HAD A RIGHT TO LITIGATE THROUGH A
COURT, TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE, AND TO BE PARTY TO
A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. HOWEVER, YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE
TO HAVE ANY CLAIMS DECIDED INDIVIDUALLY AND ONLY THROUGH BINDING,
FINAL, AND CONFIDENTIAL ARBITRATION.
-
YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION WITHIN
THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST USE, OR ATTEMPT TO
USE, THE SERVICE BY WRITING TO
INFO@CODEFINITY.COM OR TO
THE ARBITRATION NOTICE ADDRESS. FOR YOUR OPT-OUT TO BE EFFECTIVE,
YOU MUST SUBMIT A SIGNED WRITTEN NOTICE OPTING OUT AND CONTAINING
ENOUGH DETAILS ABOUT YOU FOR US TO BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY YOU WITHIN
THIRTY (30) DAYS. IF MORE THAN THIRTY (30) DAYS HAVE PASSED, YOU ARE
NOT ELIGIBLE TO OPT OUT OF THIS PROVISION AND YOU MUST PURSUE YOUR
CLAIM THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION AS SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT.
GOVERNING LAW
-
The laws of Cyprus, excluding its conflicts of law principles,
govern these Terms and your use of the Service.
To the extent that any action relating to any dispute hereunder is
permitted to be brought in a court of law, such action will be

– if you are a resident of the United States; or

the courts of Nicosia, Cyprus – if you are not a resident of the
United States;
and you hereby irrevocably submit to personal jurisdiction and venue
in such courts, and waive any defense of improper venue or
inconvenient forum.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
-
No delay or omission by us in exercising any of our rights occurring
upon any noncompliance or default by you with respect to these Terms
will impair any such right or be construed to be a waiver thereof,
and a waiver by the Company of any of the covenants, conditions or
agreements to be performed by you will not be construed to be a
waiver of any succeeding breach thereof or of any other covenant,
condition or agreement hereof contained.
-
Subject to Section 13, if any provision of these Terms is found to
be invalid or unenforceable, then these Terms will remain in full
force and effect and will be reformed to be valid and enforceable
while reflecting the intent of the parties to the greatest extent
permitted by law.

the entire agreement between you and the Company regarding its
subject matter, and supersede all prior promises, agreements or
representations, whether written or oral, regarding such subject
matter.

obligations under these Terms to any other person, by any way,
including by novation, and by accepting these Terms you give the
Company consent to any such assignment and transfer. You confirm
that placing on the Service of a version of these Terms indicating
another person as a party to the Terms shall constitute valid notice
to you of the transfer of Company's rights and obligations under the
Agreement (unless otherwise is expressly indicated).
