15) Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

A. Informal Resolution First

Before starting arbitration, you agree to contact us and provide a brief written description of the dispute and your contact information, and allow us 30 days to try to resolve it informally. You may contact us at [legal@closecurtain.com] (or [support@closecurtain.com]).

B. Agreement to Arbitrate

If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, or your relationship with us (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved by binding individual arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may:

  1. bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies, or

  2. seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to prevent actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property or confidentiality rights.

This arbitration agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA).

C. Arbitration Administrator and Rules

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (or, if applicable, Commercial Arbitration Rules). The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or part of it is void or voidable.

D. Location and Format

Unless you and we agree otherwise, arbitration will take place in [Your County], California. If you are an individual, you may choose to have the arbitration conducted by phone, video conference, or based on written submissions, subject to the AAA rules and the arbitrator’s discretion.

E. Fees and Costs

Payment of arbitration fees will be governed by the AAA rules. Each party will bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs unless the arbitrator awards otherwise under applicable law.

F. Class Action Waiver

You and Close Curtain agree that Disputes must be brought only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may award relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to resolve that individual party’s claim.

G. Waiver of Jury Trial

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Close Curtain waive any right to a trial by jury for any Dispute.

H. Severability

If any portion of this arbitration section is found unenforceable, the unenforceable portion will be severed and the remainder will be enforced. However, if the Class Action Waiver is found unenforceable, then this entire arbitration section will be null and void.

I. Opt-Out (Optional)

You may opt out of arbitration by sending a written notice to [legal@closecurtain.com] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, email address, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of arbitration.
