Assignment
You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without GetHighlights's prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms without such consent will be null and void. GetHighlights may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors, and permitted assigns.
Severance
If any provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable or invalid, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
No Waiver
The failure of GetHighlights to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of such right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of GetHighlights. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.
Interpretation
For purposes of these Terms, the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” mean “including but not limited to.” The word “or” is not exclusive. The headings used in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights.
Limitation on Legal Action
You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to the use of the Services or these Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or be forever barred.
Arbitration Agreement
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
(a) Rules
You and GetHighlights 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 Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding. The arbitration will be administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in Houston County, Texas, in the English language, before a single arbitrator.
(b) Costs
If the amount of the Dispute is $75,000 or less, GetHighlights will pay all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration. If the amount of the Dispute exceeds $75,000, the allocation of fees will be determined by the JAMS rules. Neither party shall be entitled to recover attorney's fees unless the arbitrator determines that a claim or defense was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.
(c) Small Claims and Injunctive Relief
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court in Houston County, Texas, or in the county of your residence, for claims that qualify. Additionally, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any 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.
(d) Waiver of Jury Trial
YOU AND GETHIGHLIGHTS HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and GetHighlights are instead electing that all Disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would.
(e) Waiver of Class Actions
ALL DISPUTES MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION, AND, UNLESS WE AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS.
You agree that, by entering into these Terms, you and GetHighlights are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action, collective action, or other representative proceeding of any kind.
(f) Opt-Out
You have the right to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address within 30 days of first accepting these Terms:
GetHighlights, LLC
3422 Timbergrove Heights St
Houston, TX 77008 USA
Your written notice must include your name, address, email address associated with your account, and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out, all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.
(g) Exclusive Venue
If you opt out of the Arbitration Agreement or if the Arbitration Agreement is found unenforceable, you agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts located in Houston County, Texas. Both you and GetHighlights consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there.
(h) Severability
If any part of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the remainder will remain in effect (with an arbitration award issued on an individual, non-class basis) except that if a finding of partial illegality or unenforceability would allow class arbitration or representative proceedings, the Arbitration Agreement will be unenforceable in its entirety. If you are found to have a non-waivable right to bring a particular claim or to request a particular form of relief that the arbitrator lacks authority to redress or award according to this Arbitration Agreement, then only that respective claim or request for relief may be brought in court, and you and we agree that litigation of any such claim or request for relief shall be stayed pending the resolution of any individual claims or requests for relief in arbitration.
Miscellaneous
- Taxes. You are responsible for any applicable taxes associated with your use of the Services or purchase of any paid subscription, other than taxes based on GetHighlights's net income.
- Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any Additional Terms, constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and GetHighlights regarding the Services, and supersede and replace all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between you and GetHighlights regarding the Services.
