13. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

You and TalentCapture mutually agree to waive our respective rights to resolution of disputes in a court of law by a judge or jury, and agree to resolve any claim or dispute against each other on an individual basis in arbitration, except as expressly otherwise provided in this section (“arbitration agreement”). This will prohibit you and TalentCapture from bringing any class, collective, or consolidated proceeding against each other, and will also prohibit you and TalentCapture from participating in or recovering relief under any current or future such actions brought by someone else. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court: there is no judge or jury in arbitration; discovery in arbitration may be more limited than discovery in litigation; and court review of an arbitration award is limited.

You and TalentCapture mutually agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy, whether based on past, present or future events, arising out of or relating to: any of this Agreement and prior versions thereof (including the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof); the TalentCapture Services or TalentCapture Sites; any content currently or previously available on or through the TalentCapture Services or TalentCapture Sites; your relationship with TalentCapture; your information provided to TalentCapture; the threatened or actual suspension, deactivation, termination of your User Account or access to the TalentCapture Services or TalentCapture Sites; any communication or relationship between you and any third party arising from your use of the TalentCapture Services; or any other federal and state statutory and common law claims (collectively, “Covered Matters”) will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 13. All disputes concerning the arbitrability of a Covered Matter (including disputes about the scope, applicability, enforceability, revocability, or validity of the Arbitration Agreement) will be decided exclusively by the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, except as expressly provided herein.

YOU UNDERSTAND, ACKNOWLEDGE, AND AGREE THAT YOU AND TALENTCAPTURE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL FOR ANY AND ALL COVERED MATTERS, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.
 

  1. Informal Resolution. If you have any dispute with us, you agree that before taking any formal action, you will contact us at support@talentcapture.us, provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including your User Account information) and allow sixty (60) days to pass, during which we will attempt to reach an amicable resolution of any issue.
  2. Prohibition of Class Actions and Non-Individualized Relief. You acknowledge and agree that you and TalentCapture are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class in any purported class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and TalentCapture otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding. If there is a final determination that applicable law precludes enforcement of the waiver contained in this paragraph as to any claim, cause of action or requested remedy, then that claim, cause of action or requested remedy will be severed and may be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, but the waiver contained in this paragraph shall be enforced in arbitration on an individual basis as to all other claims, causes of action or requested remedies to the fullest extent possible. In the event that a claim, cause of action or requested remedy is severed pursuant to this paragraph, then you and TalentCapture agree that the claims, causes of action or requested remedies that are not subject to arbitration will be stayed until all arbitrable claims, causes of action and requested remedies are resolved by the arbitrator.
  3. Exceptions to Arbitration. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, this Arbitration Agreement shall not require arbitration of the following types of claims: (a) small claims actions brought on an individual basis that are within the scope of such small claims court’s jurisdiction, (b) injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's confidentiality rights or copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights, and (c) claims that may not be subject to arbitration as a matter of generally applicable law.
  4. Arbitration Rules and Governing Law. This Agreement and each of its parts evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) applies in all cases and governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement and any arbitration proceedings. The arbitration of any Covered Matter will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules (including, without limitation, utilizing desk, phone or video conference proceedings where permitted to mitigate costs of travel). The AAA Rules are available at adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879 or any subsequent applicable telephone number. It is your and TalentCapture’s intent that the FAA and AAA Rules will preempt contrary state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA and AAA Rules are found to not apply to any issue that arises under this Arbitration Agreement or the enforcement thereof, then that issue will be governed by the laws of the State of Texas without regard to choice of law principles.

14. GENERAL TERMS

No Waiver; Severability. No waiver of any term of this Agreement will be binding unless in writing, no waiver of any term of this Agreement will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and the failure of TalentCapture to exercise or enforce any right or remedy in this Agreement does not waive that right or remedy. Except for the Arbitration Agreement contained herein, the severability of which is addressed in Section 13.10, if an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of this Agreement to be invalid, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect.
