20) Dispute Resolution, Arbitration Agreement, and Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.
20.1 Informal resolution first
Before starting arbitration, you agree to contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute informally by submitting a notice via our contact form. We will do the same. If we cannot resolve the dispute within a reasonable time, either party may proceed to arbitration.
20.2 Mandatory arbitration
Except for the exclusions in Section 20.4, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) rather than in court.
- If you are a Consumer: the arbitration will be administered under the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (or the AAA rules most applicable to consumers at the time). TalkCoach will pay arbitration fees to the extent required by those rules.
- If you are a Business Customer: the arbitration will be administered under the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (or the AAA rules most applicable to business disputes at the time).
The arbitrator has authority to award the same damages and relief a court could award. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.
20.3 Class action waiver
You and TalkCoach agree to bring disputes only on an individual basis, and not as a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims or preside over any form of representative or class proceeding.
20.4 Exclusions
Either party may:
- bring a claim in small claims court if it qualifies; and/or
- seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to prevent unauthorized use or infringement of intellectual property or to address security-related misuse.
20.5 Governing arbitration law
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement.
21) Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except as provided in Section 20.5 regarding the Federal Arbitration Act.
22) Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If changes are material, we will provide notice (for example, by posting on the website or within the Service). Continued use after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms.
