How We Will Handle Disputes

    • Except as provided below, you and we agree that any cause of action, legal claim, or dispute between you and us arising out of or related to this Agreement or Safe at the
      Plate ("claim(s)") must be resolved by arbitration on an individual basis. Class actions and class arbitrations are not permitted; you and we may bring a claim only on your own
      behalf and cannot seek relief that would affect other Safe at the Plate users. If there is a final judicial determination that any particular claim (or a request for particular relief) cannot be arbitrated in accordance with this provision's limitations, then only that claim (or only that request for relief) may be brought in court. All other claims (or requests for
      relief) remain subject to this provision.
    • Instead of using arbitration, you or we can bring claims in your local "small claims" court, if the rules of that court will allow it. If you don't bring your claims in small claims court
      (or if you or we appeal a small claims court judgment to a court of general jurisdiction), then the claims must be resolved by binding, individual arbitration. The American Arbitration Association will administer all arbitrations under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. You and we expressly waive a trial by jury.
    • The following claims don't have to be arbitrated and may be brought in court: disputes related to intellectual property (like copyrights and trademarks), violations of our Platform Policy, or efforts to interfere with the Service or engage with the Service in unauthorized ways (for example, automated ways). In addition, issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision are for a court to decide.
    • This arbitration provision is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
    • You can opt out of this provision within 30 days of the date that you agreed to this Agreement. To opt out, you must send your name, residence address, username, email address or phone number you use for your Safe at the Plate account, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement, and you must send them to: Safe at the Plate LLC, 3000 Custer Road, Suite 270-171, Plano, Texas, 75075.
    • Before you commence arbitration of a claim, you must provide us with a written Notice of Dispute that includes your name, residence address, username, email address or phone number you use for your Safe at the Plate account, a detailed description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. Any Notice of Dispute you send to us should be mailed
      to: Safe at the Plate LLC, 3000 Custer Road, Suite 270-171, Plano, Texas, 75075.
    • Before we commence arbitration, we will send you a Notice of Dispute to the email address you use with your TAP Series account, or other appropriate means. If we are unable to resolve a dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice of Dispute is received, you or we may commence arbitration.
    • We will pay all arbitration filing fees, administration and hearing costs, and arbitrator fees for any arbitration we bring, or if your claims seek less than $100 and you timely
      provided us with a Notice of Dispute. For all other claims, the costs and fees of arbitration shall be allocated in accordance with the arbitration provider's rules, including rules regarding frivolous or improper claims.
    • For any claim that is not arbitrated or resolved in small claims court, you agree that it will be resolved exclusively in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California or a
      state court located in Ventura County. You also agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of either of these courts for the purpose of litigating any such claim.
    • The laws of the State of California, to the extent not preempted by or inconsistent with federal law, will govern this Agreement and any claim, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

This Agreement is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of California, without reference to its conflict-of–law provisions.

prior to pursuing other legal remedies including litigation. The prevailing party in mediation is entitled to recover the reasonable cost of attorneys’ fees and costs expended for the mediation, in addition to any other relief that the prevailing party is
granted. If the dispute cannot be settled through mediation, you agree to submit all disputes to binding arbitration conducted under JAMS (Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc.) to take place in California, subject to the laws of California and the JAMS rules.
