    DISPUTE RESOLUTION, BINDING ARBITRATION. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. THROUGH USE OF THIS SITE YOU ARE GIVING UP CERTAIN RIGHTS THAT YOU MAY OTHERWISE HAVE. IT PROVIDES FOR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES THAT YOU OR Vertical Alternatives MAY HAVE WITH EACH OTHER THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION INSTEAD OF THROUGH COURT TRIALS, JURY TRIALS, OR CLASS ACTIONS. ARBITRATION IS FINAL AND BINDING AND SUBJECT TO LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT. THIS ARBITRATION CLAUSE SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT. 

    This Section is intended to be interpreted broadly to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of this Agreement, or Your purchase, or use of any product or service from Vertical Alternatives. 

    ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM MADE BY YOU AGAINST Vertical Alternatives ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR YOUR PURCHASE OR USE OF ANY Vertical Alternatives SERVICE OR PRODUCT REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SUCH DISPUTE OR CLAIM IS BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT, STATUTE, FRAUD, MISREPRESENTATION, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY (TOGETHER, A “DISPUTE”) WILL BE RESOLVED BY INFORMAL NEGOTIATIONS OR THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION, AS DESCRIBED BELOW. 

    Informal Negotiations. To expedite resolution and control the cost of a Dispute, you and Vertical Alternatives agree to first attempt to resolve a Dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration. Such Informal Negotiations will commence upon written notice from one party to the other. You must send Your notice to info@verticalalternatives.com. Please include in the subject line of the email “Request to Negotiate”. 

    Arbitration Procedures. If You and Vertical Alternatives are unable to resolve a Dispute through Informal Negotiations, either You or Vertical Alternatives may elect to have a Dispute resolved by binding arbitration by notifying the other party of such election, only if not satisfied with the remedy after informal negations are complete. 

    YOU AND Vertical Alternatives AGREE THAT IN THE EVENT EITHER PARTY ELECTS TO ARBITRATE, THE ARBITRATOR(S) DECISION SHALL BE BINDING. FURTHERMORE, ALL PARTIES TO THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDING AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ALL ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE HELD IN TARRANT COUNTY IN THE STATE OF TEXAS. 

    You and Vertical Alternatives agree to waive the right to litigate any Dispute in court and before a jury, and agree that this Arbitration provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act to the maximum extent permitted by law. You and Vertical Alternatives further agree that any arbitrator that arbitrates a Dispute under this provision is without jurisdiction to conduct a class arbitration or other representative proceeding, and may not consolidate one person’s claims with another. 

    You and Vertical Alternatives agree that all issues of enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitrate – including issues relating to scope, validity, and unconscionability – will be decided by the arbitrator. If for any reason this Arbitration Provision is deemed inapplicable or invalid, You and Vertical Alternatives both waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, the right to a jury trial and any claims relating to a Dispute to recover punitive or exemplary damages and any right to pursue any claims on a class or consolidated basis or in a representative capacity. 

    The Arbitration will be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (“AAA Consumer Procedures”), both of which are available at the AAA website https://www.adr.org/, or which may be acquired by calling the AAA at 1 (800) 778-7879.

    Any Arbitration will be confidential, and neither You nor Vertical Alternatives may disclose the existence, content, or results of any Arbitration, except as may be required by law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award. Judgment on any arbitration award may be entered in any court having proper jurisdiction. 

    If any portion of this Arbitration Provision is determined by a court or the arbitrator to be inapplicable or invalid, then the remainder shall still be given full force and effect. 

    No delay or failure to take action under the Terms of Use shall constitute any waiver by Vertical Alternatives of any provision of the Terms of Use. If any provision of the Terms of Use is found to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, it shall be severed from the Terms of Use, and the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect. The Terms of Use will bind and inure to the benefit of Vertical Alternatives successors and assigns. Any Dispute under the Terms of Use shall be brought within one (1) year after the date of which the cause of action arises. 

    Costs of Arbitration. Payment of all arbitrator fee’s, expenses, and administrative fees (which include filing and hearing fees) shall be paid for by the Party electing to Arbitrate. Where not in conflict with any of Vertical Alternatives’s Terms of Use, the Arbitration procedure will be governed by the American Arbitration Association. 

    In all Arbitrations, each party will bear the expense of its own counsel, experts, witnesses, and preparation and presentation of evidence at the arbitration. 

    Assignment, Delegation, Transferability. The Terms of Use are personal to You and may not be transferred, assigned or delegated to anyone. Any attempt by You to assign, transfer or delegate the Terms of Use shall be null and void. Vertical Alternatives may freely assign the Terms of Use without consent or notice. 

    Notice. Except as expressly stated otherwise, all notices shall be given to Vertical Alternatives or its Affiliates or their successors or assigns at info@verticalalternatives.com or to You at the email address You provide to Vertical Alternatives. Notice shall be deemed given twenty-four (24) hours after the email is sent, unless the sending party is notified that the email address is invalid. The Terms of Use (including all documents expressly incorporated herein by reference) constitutes the complete and exclusive Agreement between Vertical Alternatives and You, and supersedes all prior oral or written understandings, communications or agreements not specifically incorporated herein. All provisions in the Terms of Use regarding representations and warranties, indemnification, disclaimers and limitations of liability, shall survive the termination of the Terms of Use.
