Arbitration Agreement & Dispute Resolution
Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Acellus Health and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A className ACTION WAIVER.
Scope of Arbitration Agreement (“Arbitration Agreement”). You acknowledge and agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Services or to any other aspect of your relationship with Acellus Health will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-className, non-representative) basis; and (2) you or Acellus Health may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose before this or any prior agreement. NOW OR IN THE FUTURE, THERE MAY BE LAWSUITS AGAINST ACELLUS HEALTH ALLEGING className, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. SUCH CLAIMS, IF SUCCESSFUL, COULD RESULT IN SOME MONETARY RECOVERY TO YOU. THE EXISTENCE OF SUCH className, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS DOES NOT MEAN THAT SUCH LAWSUITS WILL ULTIMATELY SUCCEED. BUT IF YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION WITH ACELLUS HEALTH, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVERY MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF UNDER SUCH className, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST ACELLUS HEALTH IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR.
Arbitration Rules and Forum. This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act in all respects. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent, Steve Sobieski, ssobieski@acellushealth.com. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’ s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitration fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.
Arbitrator Powers. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Acellus Health. The dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages, including attorneys’ fees and costs to the extent authorized by and consistent with law, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and these Terms of Use. The arbitrator will issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding on you and Acellus Health. The parties agree that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enter a judgment upon the award made by the arbitrator or to confirm an arbitration award, and any such proceeding shall not itself be deemed a covered dispute.
Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND ACELLUS HEALTH EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND RECEIVE A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL. You and Acellus Health are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms of Use as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. In any litigation between you and Acellus Health over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, you and Acellus Health waive all rights to a jury trial, and elect instead to have a judge resolve the dispute.
Waiver of className or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A className BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of className or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Acellus Health is entitled to arbitration. Instead, all claims and disputes will then be resolved in a court as set forth in Section 14 (Disputes, Governing Law, Venue and Jurisdiction) above.
Time Limitation. As allowed by applicable law, any claim must be brought within one (1) year of the date of the event giving rise to such claim.
Opt Out. You may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you do so, neither you nor Acellus Health can force the other to arbitrate. To opt out, you must notify Acellus Health in writing no later than 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Acellus Health username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Acellus Health account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. You must send your opt-out notice to: contact@acellushealth.com. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms of Use will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.
Exclusive Venue. To the extent the parties are permitted under these Terms of Use to initiate litigation in a court, both you and Acellus Health agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to the Agreement will be litigated exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New Castle County, Delaware. Indemnity
To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us, our subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their directors, officers, agents, contractors, partners, and employees, harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs (including attorneys’ fees), and expenses, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Services or any violation of these Terms of Use.
Survival.
The following Sections survive the termination of these Terms of Use: 9 through 17.
