DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Please carefully review the following section as it outlines the Entity’s arbitration process and limits the avenues for seeking relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. This arbitration provision does not allow for class or representative actions or arbitration’s. Furthermore, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial*

(a) No Representative Actions. You and the Entity agree that any dispute arising out of or related to this EULA or the Service is personal to you and the Entity. As such, any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action, or any other type of representative proceeding.

(b) Arbitration of Disputes. You and the Entity agree to waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any other dispute arising out of or related to this EULA and the Service, including claims related to privacy and data security, resolved through arbitration. Instead, for any dispute that you have against the Entity, you agree to first contact the Entity and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to the Entity by email at [email protected] or by certified mail addressed to: WEMLAB; Parda tn 8, Kesklinna linnaosa, 10151 Tallinn, Estonia.
The Notice must (a) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (b) describe the nature and basis of the Dispute; and (c) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and the Entity cannot reach an agreement to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the Dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All Disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Tallinn, Estonia. You and the Entity agree that Disputes will be held in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). The most recent version of the JAMS Rules are available on the JAMS website and are hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

(c) You and the Entity agree that these Terms involve interstate commerce and that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the substantive and procedural provisions of this paragraph shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (“FAA”). Except as limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions and to grant all relief that would otherwise be available in a court of law, including the authority to determine the issue of arbitrability. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate the claims of more than one individual, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding, or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

(d) The arbitration will permit the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the Dispute. The arbitrator, the Entity and you will maintain the confidentiality of all arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the Dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator shall have the authority to make appropriate rulings to ensure confidentiality, except as otherwise provided by law. The duty of confidentiality shall not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for preliminary relief, or in connection with a court challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or court order.

(e) You and the Entity agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee (up to a maximum of [150EUR] if you are a consumer) and the Entity will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by the Entity, the Entity will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and the Entity agree that the city of Tallinn, Estonia shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeal and over the enforcement of any arbitration award.

(f) Any dispute must be filed within one year after the claim arose or the dispute will be permanently barred, which means that neither you nor the Entity will have the right to pursue the claim.

(g) You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first agreed to the terms of this Section by sending an opt-out notice to the Entity at WEMLAB; Parda tn 8, Kesklinna linnaosa, 10151 Tallinn, Estonia. To be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly state your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you agree to resolve disputes in accordance with the governing law and venue provisions of this EULA.

(h) If any part of this section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason,
(a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms;
(b) severance of the unenforceable or illegal provision shall not affect the remainder of this Section or the ability of the parties to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section;
(c) to the extent any claims must therefore be litigated on a class, collective, consolidated or representative basis, such claims shall be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of such claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual arbitration.
In addition, if any part of this section is found to prohibit an individual claim for injunctive relief, that provision shall be ineffective to the extent that such relief may be sought in arbitration, and the remainder of this section shall be enforceable.

GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

Any dispute arising out of these Terms and your use of the Service shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Estonia. Any dispute between the parties not subject to arbitration shall be resolved in Tallinn, Estonia.
