13. Arbitration and Dispute Resolution

Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing (helllo@tryplatterful.com ).

In the event that we are not able to resolve a dispute, we each agree that any and all disputes, controversies, or claims arising under, arising out of, or relating in any way to these Terms, or the contractual relationship established by these Terms (whether in contract, tort, or under any statute, regulation, ordinance, or any other source of law) shall be resolved on an individual basis through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of consumer-related disputes (accessible at https://adr.org/consumer ) (except that you may assert individual claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify). You and Platterful each expressly waive any right to trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration. Neither you nor Platterful shall be permitted or entitled to join or consolidate claims by or against others or arbitrate or otherwise participate in any claims as a class member, class representative, or in any other representative capacity.

The arbitration will be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator and will take place in the county or parish in which you reside, or another mutually agreeable location, in the English language. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including (but not limited to) issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this agreement to arbitrate and the arbitrability of any dispute between you and Platterful. The arbitrator may award any relief that a court of competent jurisdiction could award, including attorneys’ fees when authorized by law. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. At your request, hearings may be conducted in person or by telephone, and the arbitrator may provide for submitting and determining motions on briefs, with or without oral hearings. Platterful agrees that, upon request, it will pay a consumer’s filing fee for the arbitration.

For the benefit of the parties, all aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including (but not limited to) the transcripts of the hearing, the transcript of any deposition, and all documents produced or used during the arbitration proceeding, will be strictly confidential.

The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate. If a court decides that any provision of this paragraph is invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be severed and the other parts of this paragraph (and the remainder of these terms) will continue to apply, but in no case shall either you or Platterful be permitted to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.

14. Termination

We may terminate or suspend access to our Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation if you breach the Terms. All provisions of the Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability. We may terminate or suspend your account immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation if you breach the Terms. Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease. If you wish to terminate your account, you may simply discontinue using the Service. All provisions of the Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including, without limitation, ownership provisions, warranty disclaimers, indemnity and limitations of liability.

These Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without the prior written consent of Platterful. No waiver of any provision of these Terms will constitute a waiver of such provision in any prior, concurrent or subsequent circumstance, and Platterful’s failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Except as otherwise provided herein, these Terms are intended solely for the benefit of the parties and are not intended to confer third party beneficiary rights upon any other person or entity.
