General Provisions

Section 19

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these Terms remain in full force, provided that the essential terms and conditions remain valid, binding and enforceable and the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by these Terms are materially preserved.

The United States export control laws regulate the export and re-export of technology originating in the United States. This includes the electronic transmission of information and software to foreign countries and to certain foreign nationals.  You agree to abide by these laws and their regulations.

Nothing in these Terms creates an agency, partnership, or joint venture.  Failure to enforce any provision will not constitute a waiver of that provision.

Dispute Resolution

Section 20

*PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS*

 Most user concerns can be resolved quickly and to Your satisfaction by emailing Grayce support at support@withgrayce.com.  In the unlikely event that our support team is unable to resolve a complaint You may have (or if Grayce has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with You after attempting to do so informally), including but not limited to any alleged breach of these Terms, You and Grayce agree to resolve the dispute through binding arbitration in the State of California before a single arbitrator, in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association and governed by the laws of the State of California and local regulations of San Francisco County.  Arbitration, which is often less expensive, faster, and less formal than a lawsuit in court, uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury.  Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award, and may, but do not have to, award legal fees, arbitrator’s fees and costs and other costs incurred by the party that does not win the dispute. 

 Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted.  Any arbitration will be strictly confidential and neither party will disclose to any person (other than necessary to carry out the arbitration) the existence of the dispute or any aspect of the dispute.

This agreement to arbitrate will not preclude You or Grayce 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 Grayce from applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary.  THE PROPER VENUE FOR ANY ACTION PERMITTED UNDER THIS SUBSECTION REGARDING “EQUITABLE RELIEF” WILL BE THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY; THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE VENUE AND PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS.

 In accordance with Cal. Civ. Code §1789.3, You may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112 Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 or (916) 445-1254.
