12.  Dispute and Dispute Resolution

This section discusses your agreement with ScrumDo and our agreement with you about how we will resolve any disputes, including that we will both first try to resolve any dispute informally. We both agree to use arbitration instead of going to court or using a jury if we can’t resolve the dispute informally, as set forth below.

12.1  If a dispute arises between you and ScrumDo, our Partners or any other affiliates, our goal is to resolve the dispute quickly and cost-effectively. Accordingly, you, ScrumDo, our Partners and affiliates agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy that arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the other Terms of Service, your relationship with ScrumDo (including without limitation any claimed employment with ScrumDo or one of our Affiliates or successors), the termination of your relationship with ScrumDo, or the Services (each, a “Claim”) in accordance with this Section (sometimes referred to as the “Arbitration Provision”).

 

12.2  Claims covered by this Arbitration Provision include, but are not limited to, all claims, disputes, or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Terms of Service, any Service Agreement, escrow payments or agreements, any payments or monies you claim are due to you from ScrumDo or our Affiliates or successors, trade secrets, unfair competition, false advertising, consumer protection, privacy, compensation, classification, minimum wage, seating, expense reimbursement, overtime, breaks and rest periods, termination, discrimination, retaliation or harassment, and all other federal or state legal claims arising out of or relating to your use of the Platform, your relationship with ScrumDo, or the termination of that relationship.

 

12.3  These Terms of Use, the other Terms of Service, and any Claim will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia in the United States of America, without regard to its conflict of law provisions and excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG). This Arbitration Provision is governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.).

 

12.4  Before serving a demand for arbitration of a Claim, you and ScrumDo agree to first notify each other of the Claim. You agree to notify ScrumDo of the Claim at Attn: Legal, PO Box 680592, Marietta, Georgia 30068 or by email to legal@spryng.io, and ScrumDo agrees to provide to you a notice at your email address on file (in each case, a “Notice”). You and ScrumDo then will seek informal voluntary resolution of the Claim. Any Notice must include pertinent account information, a brief description of the Claim, and contact information, so that you or ScrumDo, as applicable, may evaluate the Claim and attempt to informally resolve the Claim. Both you and ScrumDo will have 45 days from the date of the receipt of the Notice to informally resolve the other party’s Claim, which, if successful, will avoid the need for further action.

 

12.5   BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER

 

12.5.1   Unless otherwise agreed upon in writing, this Arbitration Provision applies to all Users.

 

12.5.2   In the unlikely event the parties are unable to resolve a Claim within 45 days of the receipt of the applicable Notice, you and ScrumDo agree to resolve the Claim by final and binding arbitration before an arbitrator from JAMS, instead of a court or jury. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com.

 

12.5.3  This Arbitration Provision applies to any Claim (defined above) the parties may have and survives after your relationship with ScrumDo ends. Claims covered by this Arbitration Provision include, but are not limited to, all claims, disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to the Terms of Service. This Arbitration Provision is intended to apply to the resolution of disputes that otherwise would be resolved in a court of law or before a forum other than arbitration. If for any reason JAMS will not administer the arbitration, either party may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction with authority over the location where the arbitration will be conducted for appointment of a neutral arbitrator.

 

12.5.4  Except as otherwise provided herein, arbitration will be conducted in Cobb County, Georgia in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures’ Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect. Any dispute regarding the applicability of a particular set of JAMS rules shall be resolved exclusively by the arbitrator. Any party will have the right to appear at the arbitration by telephone and/or video rather than in person.

 

12.5.5  You and ScrumDo will follow the applicable JAMS rules with respect to arbitration fees. In any arbitration involving employment related claims related to a ScrumDo Professional Partner account, the ScrumDo Professional Partner will pay arbitration fees only to the extent those fees are no greater than the filing or initial appearance fees applicable to court actions in the jurisdiction where the arbitration will be conducted, with ScrumDo to make up the difference, if any. The arbitrator must follow applicable law and may award only those remedies that would have applied had the matter been heard in court. Judgment may be entered on the arbitrator’s decision in any court having jurisdiction.

 

12.5.6  This Arbitration Provision does not apply to litigation between ScrumDo and you that is or was already pending in a state or federal court or arbitration before the applicability of these Terms of Use to our relationship. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no amendment to this Arbitration Provision will apply to any matter pending in an arbitration proceeding brought under this Section unless all parties to that arbitration consent in writing to that amendment.

 

12.5.7  This Arbitration Provision is the full and complete agreement relating to the formal resolution of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Arbitration Provision, this Arbitration Provision covers, and the arbitrator shall have exclusive jurisdiction to decide all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, enforcement, or application of this Arbitration Provision, including the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity of the Arbitration Provision or any portion of the Arbitration Provision. All such matters shall be decided by an arbitrator and not by a court. The parties expressly agree that the arbitrator and not a court will decide any question of whether the parties agreed to arbitrate, including but not limited to any claim that all or part of this Arbitration Provision, this Agreement, or any other part of the Terms of Service is void or voidable.

 

12.5.8  In the event any portion of this Arbitration Provision is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this Arbitration Provision will be enforceable. If any portion of the Class Action Waiver of this Arbitration Provision set forth below is deemed to be unenforceable, you and ScrumDo agree that this Arbitration Provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

 

12.5.9  This Arbitration Provision affects your ability to participate in class or collective actions. Both you and ScrumDo agree to bring any dispute in arbitration on an individual basis only, and not on a class or collective basis on behalf of others. There will be no right or authority for any dispute to be brought, heard or arbitrated as a class or collective action, or as a member in any such class or collective proceeding (“Class Action Waiver”).

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the JAMS rules, disputes regarding the enforceability, revocability, scope, or validity or breach of the Class Action Waiver may be resolved only by a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. In any case in which (1) the dispute is filed as a class or collective action and (2) there is a final judicial determination that all or part of the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, the class or collective action to that extent must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, but the portion of the Class Action Waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration. You and ScrumDo agree that you will not be retaliated against, disciplined or threatened with discipline as a result of your filing or participating in a class or collective action in any forum. However, ScrumDo may lawfully seek enforcement of this Arbitration Provision and the Class Action Waiver under the Federal Arbitration Act and seek dismissal of such class or collective actions or claims.

 

12.6.   RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISION.
You may opt out of the Arbitration Provision contained in this Section by notifying ScrumDo in writing within 30 days of the date you first registered for the Site. To opt out, you must send a written notification to ScrumDo at Attn: Legal, PO Box 680592, Marietta, Georgia 30068 that includes (a) your Account username, (b) your name, (c) your address, (d) your telephone number, (e) your email address, and (f) a statement indicating that you wish to opt out of the Arbitration Provision. Alternatively, you may send this written notification to legal@spryng.io. Opting out of this Arbitration Provision will not affect any other terms of this Agreement.

 

12.6.1  If you do not opt out as provided in this Section, continuing your relationship with ScrumDo constitutes mutual acceptance of the terms of this Arbitration Provision by you and ScrumDo. You have the right to consult with counsel of your choice concerning this Agreement and the Arbitration Provision.

 

12.6.2  This Arbitration Provision replaces all prior agreements regarding the arbitration of disputes and is the full and complete agreement relating to the formal resolution of disputes covered by this Arbitration Provision. In the event any portion of this Arbitration Provision is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this Arbitration Provision will be enforceable. If any portion of the Class Action Waiver above is deemed to be unenforceable, you and ScrumDo agree that this Arbitration Provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.
