20. Dispute Resolution
​
A. Mandatory Arbitration. Please read this carefully. It affects your rights. YOU AND FINAGRAPH AND EACH OF OUR RESPECTIVE SUBSIDIARIES, AFFILIATES, PREDECESSORS IN INTEREST, SUCCESSORS, AND PERMITTED 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 OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Please visit www.adr.org for more information about arbitration.
1. Commencing Arbitration. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by e-mail. The Notice to Finagraph should be addressed to: terms@finagraph.com , Attn: Chief Executive Officer (the "Arbitration Notice Address"). The Notice must (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (the "Demand"). If you and Finagraph do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Finagraph may commence an arbitration proceeding as set forth below or file a claim in small claims court. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION ("AAA") IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (THE "RULES"), AS MODIFIED BY THIS AGREEMENT. The Rules and AAA forms are available online at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. If you are required to pay a filing fee to commence an arbitration against Finagraph, then Finagraph will promptly reimburse you for your confirmed payment of the filing fee upon Finagraph's receipt of Notice at the Arbitration Notice Address that you have commenced arbitration along with a receipt evidencing payment of the filing fee, unless your Demand is equal to or greater than $1,000, in which case you are solely responsible for the payment of the filing fee.
​
2. Arbitration Proceeding. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language. A single independent and impartial arbitrator will be appointed pursuant to the Rules, as modified herein. You and Finagraph agree to comply with the following rules, which are intended to streamline the dispute resolution process and reduce the costs and burdens on the parties: (i) the arbitration will be conducted by telephone, 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 rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
3. No Class Actions. YOU AND FINAGRAPH AGREE THAT YOU AND FINAGRAPH 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, 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 PROVISO IS FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE ENTIRETY OF THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION SECTION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.
​
4. Decision of the Arbitrator. Barring extraordinary circumstances, the arbitrator shall issue his or her decision within 120 days from the date the arbitrator is appointed. The arbitrator may extend this time limit for an additional 30 days in the interests of justice. All arbitration proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award. The award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall include a statement setting forth the reasons for the disposition of any claim. The arbitrator shall apply the laws of the State of Washington in conducting the arbitration. You acknowledge that this Agreement and your use of the Service evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. The United States Federal Arbitration Act shall govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to the Mandatory Arbitration clause in this Agreement.
​
B. Governing Law. This Agreement and your use of the Service and all Content shall be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Washington without reference to its choice or conflicts of law principles. Only if the Mandatory Arbitration clause is deemed to be null and void, then all disputes arising between you and Finagraph under this Agreement will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in King County, Washington, and you and Finagraph hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction and venue of these courts.
​
C. Equitable Relief. The foregoing provisions of this Dispute Resolution section do not apply to any claim in which Finagraph seeks equitable relief of any kind. You acknowledge that, in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Finagraph or any third party, the damage or harm, if any, caused to you will not entitle you to seek injunctive or other equitable relief against Finagraph, including with respect to any Business Data, and your only remedy shall be for monetary damages, subject to the limitations of liability set forth in this Agreement.
​
D. Claims. You and Finagraph agree that, notwithstanding any other rights the party may have under law or equity, any cause of action arising out of or related to this Agreement or the Service, excluding a claim for indemnification, must commence within one year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
E. Improperly Filed Claims. All claims you bring against Finagraph must be resolved in accordance with this Dispute Resolution section. All claims filed or brought contrary to this Dispute Resolution section shall be considered improperly filed. Should you file a claim contrary to this Dispute Resolution section, Finagraph may recover attorneys' fees and costs up to $5,000, provided that Finagraph has notified you in writing of the improperly filed claim, and you have failed to promptly withdraw the claim.
​
21. Legal Notices
​

​
Our failure to act in a particular circumstance does not waive our ability to act with respect to that circumstance or similar circumstances.

The section headings and titles in this Agreement are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

Nothing express or implied in this Agreement is intended to confer upon any entity other than the parties and their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations, or liabilities whatsoever. We will not be liable for any delay or non-performance of our obligations under this Agreement due to any cause beyond our control.
​
This Agreement, including all Policies, constitute the entire agreement between you and Finagraph concerning the Site, the Service, and any Content. This Agreement shall supersede all prior agreements or communications between you and Finagraph regarding the subject matter of this Agreement.
