BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER
PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY
FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
14.1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you
and Quanntum Chain in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 14.2 and
14.3, you and Quanntum Chain agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved
by binding arbitration. 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 Quanntum Chain ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT
TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
14.2. Exceptions.
Despite the provisions of Section 14.1, nothing in these Terms will 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 an enforcement 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.
14.3.
Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of
the provisions of this Section 14 within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending
a letter to Quanntum Chain, Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, Hill Allen (Wickford) Ltd Office 1, Riverside Court, 24 Lower Southend Road, Wickford, Essex, England, SS11 8AW
that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with
your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out
Notice”). Once Quanntum Chain receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 14 will be void and any
action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 15.2. The remaining
provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.
14.4.
Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Quanntum Chain 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 ADG. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to
resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding
arbitration agreement.
14.5. Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who
intends to seek arbitration must 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 (“Notice of
Arbitration''). ADG’s address for Notice is: ADG Finance Broker, Hill Allen (Wickford) Ltd Office 1, Riverside Court, 24 Lower Southend Road, Wickford, Essex, England, SS11 8AW .
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 to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or ADG Finance Broker 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 Quanntum Chain 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 Quanntum Chain in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, ADG Finance Broker will pay
to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.
14.6. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms,
Quanntum Chain 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 Los Angeles, CA, but if the claim 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 (or parish) 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 forth in 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 Quanntum Chain for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your
obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the 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 make rulings 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.
14.7. No Class Actions. YOU AND Quanntum Chain 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 Quanntum Chain 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.
14.8. Modifications
to this Arbitration Provision. If Quanntum Chain makes any future change to this arbitration
provision, other than a change to ADG’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change
by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to ADG’s address for Notice of
Arbitration, in which case your account with Quanntum Chain will be immediately terminated and this arbitration
provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will
survive.
14.9. Enforceability. If Section 14.7or the entirety of this
Section 14 is found to be unenforceable, or if Quanntum Chain receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the
entirety of this Section 14 will be null and void and, in that case, exclusive jurisdiction and venue
described in Section 15.2 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
15.1. General Terms. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy
and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and
exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Quanntum Chain regarding your use of the Service. You may
not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation
of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms at any time without
notice or consent. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to
require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of
these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a
waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will
not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word
“including” means “including but not limited to”. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or
unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the
remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
15.2. Governing Law.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law
principles. You and Quanntum Chain submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and
federal courts located within Cook County, Illinois for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding
permitted under these Terms. We operate the Service from our offices in Illinois, and we make no
representation that Materials included in the Service are appropriate or available for use in other
locations.
