Initial Dispute Resolution.
We are available by email at
This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Services. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.

If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to the preceding paragraph, then either party may initiate binding arbitration. Any claim, cause of action, or dispute arising out of or relating to your use of these Services or this Agreement, shall be resolved through final and binding arbitration in the State of Maryland and you waive any right to claim that such location is an inconvenient forum. you are giving up the right to litigate a dispute in court before a judge or jury. The arbitration shall be conducted under the auspices of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (the "JAMS"), on a non-confidential basis in accordance with the provisions of its then-effective rules, including its streamlined procedures, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator's award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The procedures and rules of the Federal Arbitration Act shall exclusively govern the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision and the parties hereby reject, waive and disclaim the application of any state Arbitration Act.

The JAMS rules governing the arbitration may be accessed at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/, or by calling JAMS at 1.800.352.5267. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, MASN will pay the additional cost. A request for payment of fees should be submitted to JAMS along with your form for initiating the arbitration, and MASN will make arrangements to pay all necessary fees directly to JAMS. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, we will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. The arbitration rules also permit you to recover attorney's fees in certain cases.
The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of
arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

Class Action Waiver
You and masn agree to arbitrate in each of our individual capacities only, not as a representative or member of a class, and each of us waives any right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. No arbitration or proceeding can be combined with another without the prior written consent of you, MASN, and any other parties to the arbitration or proceedings.

Exception - Small Claims Court Claims
As an exception to this arbitration agreement, MASN is happy to give you the right to pursue in small claims court any claim that is within that court’s jurisdiction, whether or not you discussed with us informally first, as long as you proceed on an individual basis.

Camden Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21201. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of registering to use the Services, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of this section. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, MASN also will not be bound by them.

Exclusive Venue for Litigation
Solely to the extent the arbitration provisions set forth above do not apply, or for purposes of either party enforcing an award granted to it pursuant to arbitration, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Maryland (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in Maryland for any litigation other than small claims court actions. The Parties irrevocably consent to personal jurisdiction in Maryland for any litigation and hereby waive, for all purposes, their right to challenge the lack of personal jurisdiction of Maryland over any litigation arising in connection with, out of, or as a result of (a) this Agreement or the Services, and (b) any acts or omissions of any of the Covered Entities in connection with this Agreement or the Services.

This agreement to arbitrate will not preclude you or MASN from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration, including without limitation, orders to stay a court action, compel arbitration or confirm an arbitral award from a court of competent jurisdiction. Furthermore, this agreement to arbitrate will not preclude you or MASN from seeking a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction or other interim relief as necessary or seeking relief to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights.
