12. Disputes | Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
You and HireClarity agree that, except for claims that may be brought in small claims court, any dispute arising out of or relating to the Service, these Terms, or your relationship with HireClarity as Service user shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Our agreement to arbitrate shall be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced.
YOUR AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATION MEANS THAT FOR ALL SUCH DISPUTES, YOU ARE GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. INSTEAD, YOU WILL HAVE A HEARING BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR.
In the event of a dispute, you or HireClarity must send to the other party a notice of dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving the notice, the facts giving rise to the dispute, and the relief requested. You must send any notice of dispute to the address below. We will send any notice of dispute to you at the contact information we have for you. We agree we will attempt to resolve a dispute through informal negotiation within sixty (60) days from the date the notice of dispute is sent. After sixty (60) days, you or we may commence arbitration.
You must send any notice of dispute to: HireClarity, Inc. | ATTN: Darren Hogben |
100 West Harrison St, Suite S460 | Seattle WA 98199
You or HireClarity agree to initiate arbitration in King County, Washington and to keep the arbitration confidential, including the existence of the arbitration, any non-public information provided in the arbitration, and any submissions, orders or awards made in the arbitration. This information concerning the arbitration must not be disclosed to any third party except the tribunal, the parties, their counsel, experts, witnesses, accountants and auditors, insurers, and any other person necessary to the conduct of the arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may disclose arbitration confidential information to the extent that disclosure may be required to fulfill a legal duty, protect, or pursue a legal right, enforce, or challenge an award in bona fide legal proceedings.
WE AGREE THAT ALL PROCEEDINGS TO RESOLVE OR LITIGATE A DISPUTE IN ANY FORUM WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. NEITHER PARTY WILL SEEK TO HAVE A DISPUTE HEARD AS A CLASS ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR IN ANY OTHER PROCEEDING IN WHICH EITHER PARTY ACTS OR PROPOSES TO ACT IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY.
No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to the arbitration or proceeding. If the class action waiver is found to be illegal or unenforceable as to all or some parts of a dispute, those parts will be severed and proceed in a court of law, with the remaining parts proceeding in arbitration.
You agree that any action at law or in equity arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service that cannot be resolved through arbitration will be filed, and that venue properly lies, only in the state or federal courts located in King Country, Washington, in United States of America, and you consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purposes of litigating such action.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Washington and the laws of the United States, without giving effect to any conflict of law principles (whether in the jurisdiction selected above or any other jurisdiction).
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from the Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
All provisions of this Disputes Section will survive termination.
13. General Provisions
HireClarity’s failure to enforce any provision hereof shall not constitute or be construed as a waiver of such provision or of the right to enforce it or any other provision at a later time. HireClarity may, at any time, in its sole discretion, and without notice to you, assign some or all of its rights and obligations under these Terms. You may not assign your rights or delegate your duties under these Terms without the prior written consent of HireClarity.
If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall be deleted and shall not affect any other provision of these Terms. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and HireClarity with respect to your use of the Service.
