While we appreciate your interest in the Services and our business, Opine does not want and cannot accept any ideas or information users consider confidential and/or proprietary.

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any action subject to indemnification by you, and in such event you agree to cooperate with us in defending such action.

You must not establish a link from any website that is not owned by you. The Site must not be framed on any other website, nor may you create a link to any part of the Site other than the homepage.

Arbitration Agreement

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS AND IMPACTS THE WAY THAT YOU AND WE BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER AND HOW THOSE CLAIMS ARE DECIDED.

Dispute Resolution

This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, including its procedural provisions, in all respects. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CLAIM RELATING IN ANY WAY TO THE INTERPRETATION, APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR FORMATION OF THESE TERMS OR YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES AND/OR CONTENT WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, RATHER THAN IN COURT. THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IS INTENDED TO BE BROADLY INTERPRETED AND INCLUDES ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND OPINE REGARDING ANY ASPECT OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH US OR ANY CONDUCT OR FAILURE TO ACT ON OUR PART, INCLUDING CLAIMS BASED ON BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (FOR EXAMPLE, A NEGLIGENCE CLAIM), VIOLATION OF LAW OR ANY CLAIMS BASED ON ANY OTHER THEORY, AND INCLUDING THOSE BASED ON EVENTS THAT OCCURRED PRIOR TO THE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT.

Prohibition of Class Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

ANY ARBITRATION WILL BE CONDUCTED BY THE PARTIES IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITIES ONLY AND NOT AS A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then all of Section 16, other than subsection 8, will be null and void and neither of us will be entitled to arbitrate our dispute.

Arbitration Rules

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and will be governed by AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”), as modified by this Agreement. The AAA Rules may be accessed at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity and must enforce the same limitations stated in this Agreement as a court would. The arbitrator will issue an award decision in writing but will not provide an explanation for the award unless you or Opine requests one. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Demand for Arbitration

A party who intends to arbitrate (“Claimant”) must first send to the other party (“Respondent”) a written notice, entitled “Demand for Arbitration” (“Demand”). The Demand must: (1) briefly explain the dispute; (2) provide the Claimant’s name and address, the address of the Claimant’s representative (if the Claimant has one), and the Respondent’s name and address (for Opine, see below); (3) specify the amount of money in dispute, if applicable; (4) if the Claimant is requesting an in-person hearing, identify the requested location for the hearing; and (5) include a statement of what the Claimant wants. The Claimant must send one copy of the Demand to AAA at the same time the Claimant sends it to the Respondent. When sending a copy of the Demand to AAA, the Claimant must also include a copy of this arbitration agreement and any amendments to it and the then current filing fee required by the AAA. The Demand must be sent to the AAA at the following address:

American Arbitration Association
Case Filing Services
1101 Laurel Oak Road, Suite 100
Voorhees, NJ 08043

Alternatively, the Demand may be filed with the AAA online using: AAA WebFile: https://www.adr.org.

Filing, Administration and Arbitrator Fees

Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules, unless otherwise stated in this Section 21. If the value of the relief sought is $1,000 or less, at your request, we will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, but not your attorneys’ fees. Any request for payment of filing, administration, and arbitrator fees by Opine should be submitted by mail to the AAA along with your Demand and Opine will make arrangements to pay all such necessary fees directly to the AAA. In the event that the arbitrator determines that the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are frivolous, you agree to reimburse us for all fees associated with the arbitration paid by Opine on your behalf that you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the AAA Rules.

Opt-Out Procedure

IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS IN THIS SECTION 21, YOU MUST NOTIFY OPINE IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT FOR THE FIRST TIME. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION TO OPINE MUST INCLUDE YOUR NAME, MAILING ADDRESS, E-MAIL ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER AND OPINE ACCOUNT INFORMATION AS WELL AS A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH OPINE THROUGH ARBITRATION. IF YOU OPT OUT OF THE ARBITRATION PROVISIONS IN THIS SECTION 16, ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT WILL CONTINUE TO APPLY, INCLUDING SECTION 16.8, BELOW.

Amendment to Arbitration Provisions

Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make any amendment to the arbitration provisions in this Section 21 in the future (other than an amendment to any notice address or site link provided herein), that amendment shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against Opine prior to the effective date of the amendment. The amendment shall apply to all other disputes or claims that have arisen or may arise between you and Opine. We will notify you of amendments to the arbitration provisions of this Section 21 by posting the amended terms here, and/or by providing notice to you by email, at least 30 days before the effective date of the amendments. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you may close your account with us within the 30-day period and you will not be bound by the amended terms.

Jury Trial and Class Action Waiver

IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, YOU AND OPINE EACH UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. THIS MEANS THAT ANY CLAIM WOULD BE DECIDED BY A JUDGE, NOT A JURY. FURTHER, WITH RESPECT TO ANY CLAIM THAT PROCEEDS IN A COURT, YOU AND WE 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 OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

Geographic Restrictions

Opine is based in the State of Colorado in the United States. We make no claims that the Services or the Content are accessible or appropriate outside of the United States. Access to and use of the Services may not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. If you access the Services from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.

Governing Law; Jurisdiction and Venue

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or related to these Terms, their subject matter, or their formation (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, other than such laws and case law that would result in the application of the laws of a jurisdiction other than the State of Colorado.

Waiver and Severability

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent possible, and the remaining provisions of these Terms will continue in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement

These Terms, including our Privacy Policy, constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Opine with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersede and replace all prior or contemporaneous understandings or agreements, written or oral, regarding such subject matter.
