Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver
- Arbitration Agreement. Except as set forth below, Company and you agree to resolve any and all statutory and/or common law claims, disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to the employment relationship and/or the termination of employment with Company and/or your use of the App(including claims you may have against the Company, its Clients and all related and affiliated entities of either, as well as past and present partners, directors, trustees, officers, employees, and agents of each of them) exclusively by final and binding bilateral arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its National Rules for the Resolution of Employment Disputes or the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services ("JAMS") under its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitrator shall apply rules of AAA or JAMS, respectively, as well as Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68. The types of claims covered areany and all claims involving legally protected rights or recognized legal claims. Some, but not all, of the types of claims covered are: unpaid wages or commissions; discrimination or harassment on the basis of race, sex, age, national origin, religion, disability or any other unlawful basis; breach of contract; unlawful retaliation; wrongful discharge; whistleblower, defamation; and employment-related tort claims and any other federal, state, or local statute, regulation, or common law doctrine, regarding employment discrimination, conditions of employment, or termination of employment. These Terms are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1. The parties expressly agree that this Agreement shall be governed by the FAA even in the event you and/or the Company are otherwise exempted from the FAA. Any disputes in this regard shall be resolved exclusively by an arbitrator. In the event, but only in the event, the arbitrator determines the FAA does not apply, New York law shall apply. Either party may seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction applying New York law. The arbitrator’s authority will be limited to determining whether either party violated a contractual, statutory, or common law obligation and the arbitrator will have no authority to expand Company’s or your rights and/or remedies other than those provided by law.
ARBITRATION NOTICE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER: AS SET FORTH IN THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SECTION BELOW, YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION LAWSUIT OR CLASS-WIDE ARBITRATION.
- Company and you agree that binding arbitration shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for the resolution of claims and you are waiving your right to bring any such Claim(s) in a court of competent jurisdiction and any right to a trial by jury. You further agree to waive your right to a jury trial in any action or proceeding related to any Claim covered under these Terms. You also agree that any dispute that is covered by this Arbitration Agreement shall proceed on an individual basis, and not on a class, collective, or any other representative basis. You expressly waive your right to bring or participate in any class, collective or other multi-party proceeding against the Company. Your claim in arbitration shall not be consolidated with any other claim, though the parties may mutually consent to coordinated or consolidated pre-hearing procedures. These Terms do not permit class arbitrations. The arbitration will take place in the State where you worked for Company during the 12-month period preceding the request for arbitration.
- The AAA National Rules or the JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules will govern the allocation of costs between the parties unless otherwise agreed. The parties agree that the party initiating the arbitration must pay in advance any filing fee required by AAA, provided however, that if you initiate the arbitration, Company will pay for that part of the filing fee in excess of the fee that your would have paid to file suit in state court in the state in which you work or worked for Company. The remaining expenses of the arbitration (including AAA’s or JAMS’ administrative fees, the arbitrator’s compensation, and any required deposits) shall be paid by Company during the arbitration and are subject to reapportionment by the arbitrator as part of the written award and in accordance with applicable law. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees, except to the extent that the arbitrator awards such fees in accordance with applicable law. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this agreement to arbitrate, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association or JAMS.
