8. ARBITRATION

 

Except if you opt-out or for disputes relating to: (1) your or Giantgood's intellectual property (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights and patents); (2) your violation of the API Terms; or (3) your violation of Section 2 above ("Excluded Disputes"), you agree that all disputes between you and Giantgood (whether or not such dispute involves a third party) with regard to your relationship with Giantgood, including without limitation disputes related to these Terms, your use of the Service, and rights of privacy or publicity, will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association's rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes and you and Giantgood hereby expressly waive trial by jury. As an alternative, you may bring your claim in your local "small claims" court, if permitted by that small claims court's rules. You may bring claims only on your own behalf. Neither you nor Giantgood will participate in a class action or class-wide arbitration for any claims covered by this agreement. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person's account, if Giantgood is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event the American Arbitration Association is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within one hundred and sixty (160) days of filing the case, then either Giantgood or you can elect to have the arbitration administered instead by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any provision of applicable law notwithstanding, the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies or awards that conflict with these Terms. 

 

You may opt out of this agreement to arbitrate. If you do so, neither you nor Giantgood can require the other to participate in an arbitration proceeding. To opt out, you must notify Giantgood in writing within 30 days of the date that you first became subject to this arbitration provision. You must use this address to opt out: 

 

Giantgood, Inc.  ATTN: Arbitration, 221 E Indianola Ave. Phoenix, AZ 85012 

 

You must include your name and residence address, your email address, the phone number, as applicable,  you use for your Giantgood account, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement. 

 

If the prohibition against class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties contained above is found to be unenforceable, then all of the preceding language in this Arbitration section will be null and void. This arbitration agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with Giantgood.

9. TIME LIMITATION ON CLAIMS

 

You agree that any claim you may have arising out of or related to your relationship with Giantgood must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, your claim is permanently barred.

10. GOVERNING LAW & VENUE

 

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law AND WILL SPECIFICALLY NOT BE GOVERNED BY THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS, IF OTHERWISE APPLICABLE. For any action at law or in equity relating to the arbitration provision of these Terms, the Excluded Disputes or if you opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, you agree to resolve any dispute you have with Giantgood exclusively in a state or federal court located in Phoenix, Arizona, and to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in Maricopa County, Arizona for the purpose of litigating all such disputes. 

 

If any provision of the Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable during arbitration or by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.  Giantgood reserves the right to change this dispute resolution provision, but any such changes will not apply to disputes arising before the effective date of the amendment. This dispute resolution provision will survive the termination of any or all of your transactions with Giantgood.

11. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

 

If you are using the Service on behalf of a legal entity, you represent that you are authorized to enter into an agreement on behalf of that legal entity. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Giantgood and governs your use of the Service, superseding any prior agreements between you and Giantgood. You will not assign the Terms or assign any rights or delegate any obligations hereunder, in whole or in part, whether voluntarily or by operation of law, without the prior written consent of Giantgood. Any purported assignment or delegation by you without the appropriate prior written consent of Giantgood will be null and void. Giantgood may assign these Terms or any rights hereunder without your consent. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction or during arbitration to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, the parties nevertheless agree that such portion will be deemed severable from these Terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, and the remaining provisions of the Terms remain in full force and effect. Neither the course of conduct between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify the Terms. Giantgood's failure to insist upon or enforce strict performance of any provision of these Terms will not be construed as a waiver of any provision or right. No waiver of any of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition. These Terms do not confer any third-party beneficiary rights.

12. TERRITORIAL RESTRICTIONS
