These Legal Terms and Client engagement with Provider for Services are under the jurisdiction of Texas law. This applies to agreements made and fully executed within Texas, excluding any conflicting laws.

INFORMAL NEGOTIATIONS

Before resorting to formal legal avenues, both parties commit to a 30-day informal negotiation period to resolve any disputes. This period starts when one Party sends a written notice to the other.

BINDING ARBITRATION

If informal negotiations fail, binding arbitration will be the next step. The arbitration will follow the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes where applicable. Arbitration fees and arbitrator compensation will be governed by these AAA rules. The arbitration can be in-person, document-based, by phone, or online. The arbitrator’s decision is final and will be in writing. The arbitration will occur in Texas, USA, unless otherwise mandated by AAA rules or law.

COURT PROCEEDINGS

If arbitration is not possible or allowed, the dispute will be handled in the state and federal courts in Dallas, Texas. Both parties consent to this jurisdiction and waive any objections regarding venue.

TIME LIMIT

Disputes must be initiated within one month from when the cause of action arose. If this clause is deemed unenforceable, the dispute will be decided by a competent court as outlined above.

Certain disputes are exempt from the above arbitration requirements:

• Disputes involving intellectual property rights
• Allegations of theft, piracy, or unauthorized use
