This Agreement is governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would require or permit the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of California. Any legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of or related to this Agreement or the licenses granted hereunder will be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of California in each case located in the Orange County, California, and each Party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action, or proceeding.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
Informal Negotiations. The parties will first attempt in good faith to promptly resolve any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms (or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof) (each a “Dispute”) by negotiation between representatives of each party with the authority to resolve such Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration. Informal negotiations begin upon written notice from one party to the other. Notices to Buildr must be sent to the email or physical address appearing in the Section entitled “How To Contact Us”. Buildr will send notice to you at your address in our records or by email to the email address provided by you in connection with your use of the Offerings.
Binding Arbitration. If the parties are unsuccessful in resolving the Dispute through informal negotiations, such Dispute will be submitted to final and binding arbitration. Arbitration will be conducted in English and administered as follows: (i) if in the U.S., by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules or (ii) if outside the U.S., by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution (ICDR) in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules then in effect. For more information, see www.adr.org (http://www.adr.org/). Except as required by law, neither party nor its representatives may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the other party’s prior written consent.
The arbitrator is not empowered to award damages in excess of compensatory damages and each party hereby irrevocably waives any right to recover such damages with respect to any Dispute resolved by arbitration. The decision of the arbitrator will be in accordance with these Terms and will be binding upon the parties. Each party hereby waives any right it may otherwise have under the laws of any jurisdiction to any form of appeal. Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in and enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction having jurisdiction over both parties. The arbitrator rules on his or her own jurisdiction, including the arbitrability of any claim; however, a court has exclusive authority to enforce the prohibition on arbitration on a class-wide basis or in a representative capacity. These Terms govern if there is a conflict with the AAA or the ICDR rules as applicable.
Excluded Disputes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither party is required to arbitrate claims: (1) where all named parties seek monetary relief which, in the aggregate, qualifies as a claim that meets the requirements of an applicable small claims court; (2) seeking injunctive relief; or (3) seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or Buildr’s intellectual property rights. However, if a small claim is transferred, removed, or appealed to a different court, either party may require that the claim be submitted to final binding arbitration.
Restrictions/No Class Actions. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM BROUGHT IN CONNECTION WITH A DISPUTE, WHETHER RESOLVED THROUGH ARBITRATION OR OTHERWISE, WILL TAKE PLACE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. THE PARTIES WAIVE THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR ARBITRATION, AND THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND BUILDR AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN THE CLAIMS OF OTHER PERSONS OR PARTIES WHO MAY BE SIMILARLY SITUATED, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING.
Severability. If the Restrictions/No Class Actions section is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, then those parts will not be arbitrated but will be resolved in a court of competent jurisdiction, with the balance resolved through arbitration. If any provision of this Dispute Resolution section is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then that provision will be severed; however, the remaining provisions will still apply and shall be interpreted to as nearly as possible achieve the original intent, inclusive of the severed provision.
Survival. This Dispute Resolution section will survive any termination of these Terms or your use of the Offerings.
You or Buildr may terminate these Terms at any time with notice to the other. On termination, you lose the right to access or use the Offerings. The following will survive such termination: Registration and Your Account, Limitations, Your Content, Feedback and Suggestions, Disclaimer, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, Governing Law, Dispute Resolution, and the General sections of these Terms, and any other terms that would naturally survive by their nature. Any amounts owed by either party prior to termination remain owed after termination. Buildr will have no liability or responsibility to any user related to or arising out of any termination of access to the Offerings.
These Terms incorporate by reference any notices contained on this website, the Privacy Notice (https://www.buildr.com/legal/privacy) and any other referenced policies, and constitute the entire agreement with respect to access to and use of the Offerings (unless you and Buildr have entered into Special Terms that override these Terms). If there is conflict among the terms of the foregoing notice or policies, these Terms prevail. If any provision of these Terms is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from the remaining provisions and will not affect their validity and enforceability. If Buildr does not act to enforce a breach of these Terms, that does not mean Buildr has waived its right to enforce these Terms. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any of your rights or obligations (or your membership or use of Offerings) to anyone without Buildr’s consent.
Your use of the Offerings is subject to these Terms and Buildr's Privacy Notice. (https://www.buildr.com/legal/privacy)
Buildr may, in its sole discretion, modify or revise these Terms at any time by posting the amended terms on the Offerings or otherwise linking to them in the Offerings. Buildr additionally may either: (1) notify you via the contact information associated with your account if you have registered for an Offering (you must ensure that Buildr's email is not filtered from your Inbox by your ISP or email software), or (2) post the date of the update on the Terms, Privacy Notice, or other applicable policies. You agree that your use of the Offerings after the date on which the Terms changed will constitute your acceptance of the updated Terms, and that you agree to be bound by such modifications or revisions.
