Section 19 – Governing Law

Section 20 – Dispute Resolution
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION 18 CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. THIS SECTION 19 REQUIRES YOU TO AGREE TO RESOLVE ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN US THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION.
If you believe you have a dispute or claim against us arising out of your use of the Services or under these Terms, you agree to first discuss the matter informally with us for at least 30 days. To do that, you must give us written notice, which will include your full name and contact information, the nature and basis giving rise to your dispute or claim and your proposed resolution, sent to the address below.
If you are located in, are based in, have offices in, or do business in a jurisdiction in which this section is enforceable, you understand and agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising under or in connection with these Terms, including your use and access to the Services or any other content, including, but not limited to, claims as to whether any services rendered by Predicine or persons employed or engaged by Predicine were unnecessary or unauthorized or were improperly, negligently, or incompetently rendered, shall be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration under the American Arbitration Association’s (“AAA”) Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures and Consumer-Related Disputes Supplementary Procedures, and not by a lawsuit or resort to court process, except as California law provides for judicial review of arbitration proceedings. Each party retains 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. It is your responsibility to pay any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees as set forth in the AAA Rules.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT BOTH PARTIES TO THE TERMS WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The parties further agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this agreement to arbitrate. Any such controversy or claim shall be arbitrated on an individual basis, unless both parties otherwise agree in writing. The arbitration shall be held in Alameda County, California, U.S.A.
If you are not located in, are not based in, do not have offices in, and do not do business in the United States, any arbitration between you and Predicine will be finally settled under the Rules of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC Rules”) by one or more arbitrators appointed in accordance with the ICC Rules and will be administered by the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce. You agree that such arbitration will be located in the Northern District of California, and waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue.
This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. You can opt out of this arbitration provision within 30 days of the date that you first agreed to these Terms. To opt out, you must send your name, residence address and email address used for your Predicine account, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration provisions to Predicine, Inc., 3555 Arden Rd., Hayward, CA 94545. Should you choose to withdraw from the arbitration provision, all other provisions of the Terms shall remain in full force and effect.
If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than arbitration, each party waives any right to a jury trial. You agree to the personal jurisdiction by and venue in the state courts of Alameda County in the State of California or a United States District Court, Northern District of California, and waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue.
Section 21 – Electronic Signatures
You acknowledge that by using the Service, you are indicating your intent to sign the relevant document or record acknowledging your consent to receive all Predicine communications through electronic communications (i.e., email), and that this consent shall constitute your signature. In addition, you are confirming that (1) your system meets the requirements set forth above, (2) you agree to receive disclosures, communications and documents electronically, and (3) you are able to access and retain information presented at our website or via electronic communication.
Section 22 – Changes to Website Terms of Service
You can review the most current version of the website Terms of Service at any time at this page. We may make changes, supplement or update these Terms from time to time. The revised Terms will be effective on or after the posted date. You acknowledge and agree that if you use the Services after the date on which the Terms have changed Predicine will treat your use as acceptance of the updated Terms.
If we make a material change to the Terms, we will provide you with notice thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of the changes by posting a notice on our website and by sending you an email to the email address we have for you. Unless you notify us within thirty (30) days from the time you receive notice of the new terms that you do not agree to the terms, you will be deemed to have agreed to the new Terms. You understand that our relationship with you may be governed by additional terms or agreement.
