PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Platform ("Dispute") shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration, not in court.

The arbitrator's decision is final and binding. CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AND PEDDLY EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. IF FOR ANY REASON A CLAIM PROCEEDS IN COURT, YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. EXCEPTIONS: Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court. Either party may seek emergency injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration. Nothing herein prevents Peddly from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in court to protect its intellectual property.
