21
Disputes; Agreement to Arbitrate; and Class Waiver
Agreement to Arbitrate; Class Waiver: You and Shipkee agree that, aside from what’s spelled out below with regards to small-claims court proceedings, any claim, dispute or controversy that arises out of or connected in any such way to Shipkee’s Services, including, and without limitation, our Postage Services, your account(s), our Website, user interfaces, promotional offers, our Privacy Policy or any of our privacy practices in general, these Terms, and this Agreement to Arbitrate, will be determined through binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration requires a neutral arbitrator as opposed to a judge and jury, allows for greater limited discovery than is granted in court, and undergoes very limited review by courts. You agree that, by agreeing to these terms, the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Shipkee are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms and the termination of your Shipkee account(s).
Pre-Filing Mediation. In event of dispute and before initiating arbitration, the party asserting any claim is required to first send “Notice” through certified mail to the “other” while requesting return receipt (or any successor service), a written Notice of claim (“Notice”). If you are the claimant, the Notice to Shipkee must be addressed to: Legal Department - Dispute Resolution, 1683 East 15th St., 2nd Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11229. If Shipkee is the claimant, the Notice will be addressed to the address used for your membership account. The Notice is required to (a) detail the basis and nature of the dispute or claim; and (b) set forth any specific relief being sought. Once Notice is received, both parties agree to negotiate with each other in good faith about the claim. If said claim fails to be resolved to the claimant’s satisfaction within 60 days after “Notice” is provided, the claimant can pursue such claim in arbitration or, if desired, file said claim in small-claims court.
Additional Arbitration Provisions:
Settlement Offers: During arbitration, the amount concerning any settlement offer made by you or Shipkee will not be revealed to the arbitrator.
Initiating A Claim: The form needed to initiate arbitration can be downloaded or printed from www.adr.org. You can also contact the arbitration administrator by calling 800-495-4185.
Fees for Initiating Arbitration: If a filing fee is required to begin arbitration, after Shipkee has received notice of the initiation of an arbitration, you will be promptly reimbursed for your payment (the filing fee) at whatever address we have for you on file (or the address provided in the Notice), unless the claim is greater than $10,000 US.
Applicable Rules; Administrator: Arbitration shall be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Forms and Rules are made available at www.adr.org, or by contacting the AAA at 800-495-4185. The requirements of this section of the Agreement will bind the arbitrator. The arbitrator decides all issues, including those related to the enforceability and scope of this Agreement.
Location of Hearing: Unless otherwise agreed to by you and Shipkee, any arbitration hearings shall occur in the county (or parish) of your billing address. (If residing outside of the United States, your arbitration hearings shall take place in your country of residence at a location that is reasonably convenient for you, however, it shall remain subjected to AAA Rules including the AAA rules with regards to selecting an arbitrator). If a claim is for US $10,000 or lower, it is your choice whether arbitration will be held simply on the basis of the documents submitted to selected arbitrator, over a telephonic hearing, or at an in-person hearing such as governed by AAA Rules. If any claim is greater than US $10,000, your right to such a hearing shall be governed by AAA Rules. Regardless of how the arbitration is carried out, the arbitrator will issue a written out decision that sufficiently explains any essential conclusions and finding for which any award is based.
Award Enhancement: If you are issued an award by the arbitrator that exceeds the value of Shipkee's last written settlement offer made prior to the arbitrator being selected (or if Shipkee did not make a settlement offer before an arbitrator was selected), then Shipkee shall pay you the set award or US $1,000, whichever one is greater. Except as expressly set forth herein, any payment of filing, arbitrator administration fees will occur as established by AAA Rules.
Class Waiver: You and Shipkee agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individualized capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. Further, unless both parties (you and Shipkee) agree otherwise, the arbitrator will not consolidate the claims of more than one party, and will not preside over any alternative form of a class or representative proceeding. If such specific provision is deemed unenforceable as applied to any such claim you assert, then the totality of the arbitration provision as set forth in Section 13 of these Terms shall be null and void.
Injunctive Relief Limitation: The arbitrator shall award injunctive or declaratory relief only when in favor of the particular individual party that seeks relief and only to the extent required to provide the relief as warranted by that party’s specific, individual claim.
Small Claims Procedure Alternative: Notwithstanding the foregoing binding arbitration procedure, either of the parties may bring individual action to small-claims court (provided the claimant otherwise can qualify for such program) as an alternative option to going through with arbitration.
