Dispute Resolution
This Section provides for resolution of disputes through final and binding arbitration before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury or through a class action. You may continue to have certain rights to obtain relief from a federal or state regulatory agency.
Binding Arbitration. The arbitration process established by this Section is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1- 16. You have the right to take any dispute that qualifies to small claims court rather than arbitration subject to the venue provisions set forth below. All other disputes arising out of or related to the Services (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal or equitable theory) must be resolved by final and binding arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by one arbitrator using the procedures described by this Section of the Terms and Conditions. If any portion of this Dispute Resolution Section is determined to be unenforceable, then the remainder shall be given full force and effect.
The arbitration of any dispute shall be conducted in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by the Terms and Conditions, which are in effect on the date a dispute is submitted to the AAA. In conducting the arbitration and making any award, the arbitrator shall be bound by and strictly enforce the terms of the Terms and Conditions and may not limit, expand, or otherwise modify its terms.
Before you take a dispute to arbitration or to small claims court, you must first write to us at ZP Better Together – CloudVP Support, 11900 N. Jollyville Road #204209, Austin, TX 78759 or at our email address, support@purple.us, and give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute. Similarly, before the Company takes a dispute to arbitration, the Company will first attempt to resolve it by contacting you. If the dispute cannot be satisfactorily resolved within sixty days from the date you or the Company is notified by the other of a dispute, then either party may submit the arbitration to the AAA.
Any claim or dispute arising out of the Services must be brought within 90 days of the date the basis for the claim or dispute first arises.
Notwithstanding anything in the Terms and Conditions, all actions arising from or pertaining to the Terms and Conditions and all disputes between the parties shall be initiated, maintained, and resolved in Travis County, State of Texas, USA.
