You further understand and agree that INSTIRE, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Platform to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt such User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.

You are responsible for all Content you contribute, in any manner, to the Platform and you represent and warrant you have all rights necessary to do so, in the manner in which you contribute it.  You may not upload, distribute or otherwise publish any Content that is invasive of privacy or publicity rights, infringing on intellectual property rights, unlawful, threatening, fraudulent, libelous, defamatory, obscene, vulgar, profane, abusive, harassing, hateful or otherwise objectionable, including but not limited to any Content that encourages conduct that would constitute a criminal offense or otherwise violates any applicable U.S. or foreign laws.

  1. ARBITRATION AGREEMENT

8.1 Arbitration. You agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Platform (collectively, “Disputes“) will be settled by final and binding arbitration between you and INSTIRE. This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16). Notwithstanding anything else contained herein, each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. You acknowledge and agree that you and INSTIRE are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless both you and INSTIRE otherwise agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this specific paragraph is held unenforceable, then the entirety of this “Arbitration Agreement” section will be deemed void. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, this “Arbitration Agreement” section will survive any termination of these Terms.

8.2 Arbitration Rules and Governing Law. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this Arbitration Agreement.

The parties agree that the arbitrator (“Arbitrator”), and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The Arbitrator shall also be responsible for determining all threshold arbitrability issues, including issues relating to whether the Terms are unconscionable or illusory and any defense to arbitration, including waiver, delay, laches, or estoppel.

The arbitration shall be heard by one arbitrator selected in accordance with the AAA Rules. The arbitrator shall be a licensed attorney or retired judge with experience in the law underlying the dispute.

8.3 Arbitration Process. If either party wishes to initiate arbitration, the initiating party must notify the other party in writing via certified mail, return receipt requested, or hand delivery within the applicable statute of limitations period. This demand for arbitration must include (1) the name and address of the party seeking arbitration, (2) a statement of the legal and factual basis of the claim, and (3) a description of the remedy sought.

8.4 Arbitration Location and Procedure. The arbitration shall take place in Miami-Dade County, Florida. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents you and INSTIRE submit to the arbitrator, unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, your right to a hearing will be determined by the AAA Rules. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.

8.5 Arbitrator’s Decision. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law.

8.6 Fees. The party initiating the arbitration must bear the costs and fees related thereto.

8.7 Severability and Survival. This arbitration agreement is the full and complete agreement relating to the formal resolution of disputes covered by this Arbitration Agreement. In the event any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed unenforceable, the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable. Therefore, terms of this Arbitration Agreement shall be severed, to the smallest extent possible, if required to uphold the enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement. The Arbitration Agreement is a contractual agreement to mutually arbitrate claims.

  1. OTHER PROVISIONS

9.1 Choice of Law. These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, U.S.A., without giving effect to any conflict of law principles. For all claims not subject to the Arbitration Agreement in Section 8, you agree that they will be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts of competent jurisdiction sitting in Miami-Dade County, Florida, and you expressly agree that such courts shall have jurisdiction over you. The prevailing party in any dispute arising hereunder or from your use of the Platform shall be entitled to an award of its reasonable attorney’s fees and legal costs against the non-prevailing party.
