Applicable Law / Jurisdiction / Dispute Resolution
This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the United States and the State of Texas, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide the application of the law of another jurisdiction.
You agree that any claim or dispute relating to Our Sites or this Agreement that is not resolved under the arbitration requirements of this Agreement must be resolved exclusively by a court of competent jurisdiction, federal or state, located in Austin, Texas, and no other court. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts and to accept service of process from them.
If there is an instance when you have a concern that needs special attention, MRI is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution. However, we can only do this if we know about it. Therefore, for any concern you may have with the Content of Our Sites, you agree to first send a written description of it to office@reifslager.com so we have an opportunity to address it. You agree to work with MRI in good faith to resolve the concern. We believe this should lead to resolution. However, if for some reason the concern is not resolved satisfactorily within 60 days after we receive your email, and all necessary information, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.
You agree that the sole and exclusive forum for any dispute and claim that cannot be resolved informally will be final and binding arbitration. However, if you have infringed or violated, in any manner, MRI’s intellectual property rights, you acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that we may seek injunctive relief. You agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under the Agreement.
The arbitration will be governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by this Agreement, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after MRI receives notice that you have commenced arbitration (and you have complied with the dispute resolution requirements in this Agreement), MRI will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. Unless MRI and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your residence. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties, except (1) for judicial review expressly permitted by law or (2) if the arbitrator’s award includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, in which case that party shall have the right to seek judicial review of the injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction that shall not be bound by the arbitrator’s application or conclusions of law.
YOU AND MRI AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and MRI agree, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then any putative class action may only proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration.
WE BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND MRI BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES.
In no event can any claim or action by you related to the Content of Our Sites be instituted more than one year after the cause of action arose.
Site Security
You may not use any service or facility in connection with Our Sites to compromise security or tamper with system resources and/or accounts. The use or distribution of tools designed for compromising security (e.g., password guessing programs, cracking tools or network probing tools) is strictly prohibited. If you become involved in any violation of system security, MRI reserves the right to release your details to system administrators at other sites in order to assist them in resolving security incidents. MRI reserves the right to fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing MRI to disclose the identity of anyone posting any e-mail messages, or publishing or otherwise making available any materials that are believed to violate these Terms of Use. By accepting this agreement you waive and hold harmless MRI from any claims resulting from any action taken by MRI during or as a result of its investigations and/or from any actions taken as a consequence of investigations by either MRI or law enforcement authorities.
Miscellaneous
Severability: If any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions shall not be affected.
Entire Agreement: This Terms of Use Agreement, including the Privacy Policy and any other policies incorporated herein, constitute the entire and only Terms of Use agreement between Our Sites and you. This Agreement supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements, representations, warranties and understandings, written or oral, regarding this Agreement or Our Sites.
No Waiver: The failure of MRI and its Affiliated Parties to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such term and shall not be considered a waiver or limit that party’s right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement.
