9. Dispute Resolution
Mandatory Arbitration. Any disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or the Platform will be resolved through binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association. The tribunal shall have the power to rule on any challenge to its own jurisdiction or to the validity or enforceability of any portion of the agreement to arbitrate. The parties agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and that these Terms do not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative arbitration proceeding. The arbitral tribunal may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. In the event the prohibition on class arbitration is deemed invalid or unenforceable, then the remaining portions of the arbitration agreement will remain in force.
Informal Dispute Resolution. We would like to understand and try to address your concerns prior to formal legal action. Before filing a claim against Icebreaker Labs, Inc., you agree to try to resolve the dispute informally by sending us notice at dispute-resolution@icebreaker.xyz of your name, a description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. If we are unable to resolve a dispute within 60 days, you may bring a formal proceeding.
