If we would like to subsequently discuss Your Dispute Notice with You, we will contact You by using the contact information included with Your Dispute Notice. If we want to raise a Dispute, then we will send our Dispute Notice to You on the mobile number that we have on file for You. If we do not have a valid mobile number on file for You, we will send our Dispute Notice to You through a means that complies with the service of process rules in the state of Delaware.

      If You and us do not reach an agreed-upon resolution within 30 days of receipt of the Dispute Notice, then we both agree that the Dispute will be resolved solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the then Uniform Arbitration Act of the state of Delaware. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single neutral arbitrator who is a lawyer or retired judge, who will administer the proceedings in accordance with the state of Delaware’s Uniform Arbitration Act. In resolving the Dispute, the arbitrator will consider applicable law, the provisions of these Terms and any Additional Terms, and any facts based upon the record and no other basis and will issue a reasoned decision. If a party properly submits the Dispute to the American Arbitration Association (“ AAA ") for arbitration and the AAA is unwilling or unable to set a hearing date within 60 days of the filing of a “demand for arbitration,” then either party can elect to have the arbitration administered by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“ JAMS ”), and determined by a single neutral arbitrator who is a lawyer or retired judge, using Uniform Arbitration Act’s Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or by any other arbitration administration service to which You and we consent. You can obtain details of the procedures, rules, and fee information as follows:

    2. Nature, Limitations, and Location of Alternate Dispute Resolution
    3. In arbitration, as with a court, the arbitrator will resolve the submitted Dispute and can issue a decision consistent with this Section 12. However, WITH ARBITRATION, THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY; THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS AND ARBITRATION ARE SUBJECT TO CERTAIN CONFIDENTIALITY RULES; AND JUDICIAL REVIEW OF THE ARBITRATION OUTCOME IS LIMITED. All parties to the arbitration will have the right, at their own expense, to be represented by an attorney or other advocate of their choosing. We both agree that any hearings held in the arbitration will be conducted virtually. You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator's fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules, but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require us to pay a greater portion or all such fees and costs in order for this Section 12 to be enforceable, then we will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration. Discovery will be permitted pursuant to the applicable arbitration rules. The arbitrator's decision must consist of a written statement stating the disposition of each claim of the Dispute and must provide a statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and any award (if any) is based. Judgment on the arbitration decision and award (if any) may be entered into any court that has jurisdiction over the parties.

    4. Small Claims Matters Are Excluded
    5. As an exception to binding arbitration, we both retain the right to pursue, in a small claims court in the State of Delaware, any Dispute that is within that court's jurisdiction and proceeds on an individual (non-class) basis. We will not demand arbitration in connection with any individual Dispute that You properly file and pursue in a small claims court, so long as the Dispute is pending only in that court.

    6. Timing of Claim
    7. To help resolve any issues between You and us promptly and directly, You and the Company agree that any Dispute Notice must be sent, or that any small claims or injunctive relief complaint permitted under this Section 12 must be filed, within one year after the events giving rise to the Dispute arise; otherwise, the Dispute is waived.

    8. No Class Actions
    9. You and the Company agree that each of us may bring claims against the other only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. We both further agree that any Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be consolidated with any other arbitrations or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. The arbitrator(s) may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favour of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party's individual claim(s).

    10. Opt-out
    11. You can choose to reject this arbitration agreement by sending us a written opt-out notice (Opt-Out Notice) within 30 days following the date You first agree to these Terms, by You must mail or email Your Opt-Out Notice to the address listed below. If mailed, the Opt-Out Notice must be sent certified mail and post-marked no later than 30 days following the date You first agree to these Terms. To be effective, the Opt-Out Notice must contain Your name, address, and signature. If You opt-out of the arbitration agreement, then all other parts of the Terms will continue to apply to You. Opting out of this arbitration agreement has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that You may enter with the Company

    12. Severance of Arbitration Agreement
    13. You and Torno Inc agree that the agreement to arbitrate shall survive termination of these Terms, and the termination of any membership or account You may have with Torno Inc.

    14. Severance of Arbitration Agreement
    15. If the arbitrator decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this arbitration agreement's limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) shall be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if any part of this agreement to arbitrate is deemed invalid or inapplicable, the remainder of the agreement to arbitrate shall still be considered valid and enforceable.
