Dispute resolution and arbitration; class action waiver
Please Read This Provision Carefully. It Affects Your Legal Rights.
This dispute resolution provision (the “Provision”) facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any dispute (e.g., claim or controversy), whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort – including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence – or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below) that may arise between you and us. The term “Dispute” is intended to be given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to you (such as our licensors, partners, suppliers, dealers, or third-party vendors) to the extent such claims are asserted in the same proceeding as claims against us.
This Provision requires that all Disputes between you and us shall be resolved by binding arbitration. By accepting these Terms, you and we each waive the right to litigate Disputes in court and to have Disputes heard by a judge or jury, except as expressly provided below. Arbitration does not involve a judge or jury, and judicial review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow these Terms and may award the same damages and relief that would be available in court, including attorney’s fees, as permitted by applicable law.
You may opt-out of this Provision as described below. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION AND NOT IN COURT.
Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution
For all Disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give us an opportunity to resolve the Dispute which is first done by emailing to us at legal@sidecarhealth.com the following information: (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) a written description of your Claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief you seek.
If we do not resolve the Dispute within 45 days after receiving your notification, then then the Dispute may be pursued in arbitration or, if arbitration does not apply under these Terms, in court.
Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt Out
Notwithstanding the above, you or we may choose to pursue a Dispute in court and not by arbitration if: (a) the Dispute qualifies for initiation in small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THESE TERMS BY USING THIS WEBSITE OR OUR SERVICES (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). You may opt-out of this Provision by emailing us at legal@sidecarhealth.com the following information: (1) your name; (2) your address; (3) a clear statement that you do not wish to resolve Disputes with us through arbitration. Your decision to opt-out of this Arbitration Provision will not have any adverse effect on your relationship with us. However, the Opt-Out Deadline will be strictly enforced, and any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid. In that event, the Dispute must be pursued in arbitration or, if applicable, in small claims court.
In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, arbitration shall not apply to a Dispute to the extent we assert that the Dispute was not brought by an individual asserting claims arising from their own actual access to or use of the Website or Services in their ordinary course, and instead arises from misuse, manipulation, or conduct designed to manufacture a claim. The assertion of this carve-out may be raised only by us as a defense to arbitration and does not create a right for any party to elect litigation. For the avoidance of doubt, claims brought by individuals acting as testers, proxies, assignees, or in coordination with others, or by individuals engaged in abusive, serial, or mass filing conduct, fall within this carve-out.
Arbitration Procedures
If this Provision applies and the Dispute is not resolved as provided above (Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution) either you or we may initiate arbitration proceedings. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all Disputes in English, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration only, and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration or a consolidated or representative action or arbitration. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision.
For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action or representative procedures or rules apply to the arbitration.
Because this Website and these Terms concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all Disputes. However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.
Arbitration Award
The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party or if required by applicable law. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA or other applicable law, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.
Location of Arbitration
You or we may initiate arbitration in either California or the federal judicial district that includes your billing address. Either party may ask that the arbitration including the hearings, arguments, and all conferences be conducted telephonically or by video conference (e.g., Zoom).
Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs
So long as you place a request in writing prior to commencement of the arbitration, we will advance arbitration filing fees and AAA or JAMS hearing fees and any arbitrator’s hearing fees, costs and expenses upon your written request to the arbitrator given at or before the first evidentiary hearing in the arbitration. You will remain responsible for all additional fees and costs you incur in the arbitration, including attorneys’ fees or expert witnesses. In addition to any fees and costs recoverable under applicable law, if you provide notice and negotiate in good faith with us as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution” and the arbitrator concludes that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you may be entitled to recover reasonable attorney’s fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the arbitrator determines that a claim was brought in bad faith, was frivolous, was asserted for an improper purpose, or was part of abusive, serial, or mass filing conduct, the arbitrator may deny any fee advancement or fee shifting otherwise available under these Terms and may require the claimant to reimburse fees and costs advanced on their behalf.
Class Action Waiver
The parties agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. This means that you and we agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a lead or representative class plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. However, you and we expressly agree that separate individual arbitrations shall be consolidated, upon request by us, if such separate individual arbitrations relate to or arise out of the same or substantially the same transaction(s) or occurrence(s). Consolidation means that any and all separately initiated arbitrations that relate to or arise out of the same or substantially the same transaction(s) or occurrence(s) are all heard by a single arbitrator in a single arbitration. If we request consolidation of multiple arbitrations, then the parties to the consolidated case(s) will be deemed to have waived their right to designate an arbitrator as well as any contractual provision with respect to the site of the arbitration. The following factors may be considered in our request for consolidation:
- The arbitrations have a common question of law or fact;
- The issues in the multiple arbitrations are largely identical;
- There are common claims, disputes, defenses, and relationships between or among the parties in the different arbitrations;
- One or more parties is named in multiple pending arbitrations;
- Consolidation is in the interest of justice and efficiency; and
- One party will be seriously prejudiced by having multiple arbitrations heard separately.
If you choose to pursue your Dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other user of this Website can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.
Jury Waiver
You understand and agree that by accepting this Provision in these Terms, you and we are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, you and we might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring Disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that you would have if you went to court (e.g., the rights to both appeal and certain types of discovery) may be more limited or may also be waived.
Limitation on Time to File Claims
To the extent permitted by applicable law, any Dispute or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Website, or the Services must be commenced within one (1) year after the Dispute or claim accrues. Otherwise, such Dispute or claim is permanently barred.
Severability
If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision whose remainder will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the Dispute will be decided by a court.
Continuation
This Provision shall survive the termination of your account with us or our affiliates and your discontinued use of this Website. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, we agree that if we make any change to this Provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject any such change and require us to adhere to the present language in this Provision if a dispute between us arises.
Language
The Parties hereto have expressly required that these Terms and all documents and notices relating thereto be drafted in the English language.
General
We encourage direct communication to resolve issues. If we feel that you are not complying with these Terms, in some cases we will tell you. We may even provide you with recommended necessary corrective action(s) because we value this relationship.
However, certain violations of these Terms, as determined by us, may require immediate termination of your access to this Website without prior notice to you. The Federal Arbitration Act, California state law, and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to the choice or conflicts of law provisions, will govern these Terms. Foreign laws do not apply. Except for disputes subject to arbitration as described above, any disputes relating to these Terms or this Website will be heard in the courts located in Los Angeles County, California. If any of these Terms are deemed inconsistent with applicable law, then such term(s) shall be interpreted to reflect the intentions of the parties, and no other terms will be modified. By choosing not to enforce any of these Terms, we are not waiving our rights. These Terms are the entire agreement between you and us and, therefore, supersede all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions, or agreements between you and us about this Website. The proprietary rights, disclaimer of warranties, representations made by you, indemnities, limitations of liability, the arbitration Provision, and general provisions shall survive any termination of these Terms.
