12. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms and any disputes arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware and the federal laws of the United States, without regard to conflict of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

For any disputes not subject to arbitration (as described in Section 13), you agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Delaware, and waive any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum objections.

13. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Agreement to Arbitrate

You and FastPedia agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Service (collectively, "Disputes") will be settled by binding individual arbitration, except as provided below. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and is subject to very limited review by courts.

Exceptions to Arbitration

Either party may bring a lawsuit in court for the following limited purposes:

• To enforce or protect, or seek relief for the infringement of, intellectual property rights
• To seek injunctive or other equitable relief for violations of these Terms
• Claims in small claims court (provided they remain in small claims court and are brought on an individual basis only)

Arbitration Rules and Procedures

The arbitration will be administered by JAMS (Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services) under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or if JAMS is unavailable, by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator will be bound by these Terms.

• Location: Arbitration will be conducted in Delaware or, at your option, via telephone, video conference, or document submission
• Arbitrator's Authority: The arbitrator may award any relief available in court, including monetary damages, injunctive relief, and declaratory relief
• Decision: The arbitrator's decision is final and binding, subject to very limited review by courts
• Confidentiality: Arbitration proceedings and results will be confidential

Costs and Fees

You and FastPedia will each be responsible for your own attorneys' fees and costs, except as required by applicable law or as otherwise determined by the arbitrator. FastPedia will pay your filing, administration, and arbitrator fees if your claim seeks less than $10,000, unless the arbitrator finds the claim frivolous.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER

YOU AND FASTPEDIA AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING DISPUTES AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, REPRESENTATIVE, MULTIPLE PLAINTIFF, OR SIMILAR PROCEEDING ("CLASS ACTION").

YOU AND FASTPEDIA EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO:

• Participate in a class action lawsuit
• Participate in a class-wide arbitration
• Consolidate claims with claims of any other persons
• Bring representative claims on behalf of other users or the general public
• Join or combine your claim with claims of others (unless the arbitrator authorizes multiple claims from the same law firm)

Unless you and FastPedia agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party's claims and may not preside over any form of class action.

Opt-Out Right

You have the right to opt out of this arbitration agreement within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. To opt out, send written notice to [email protected] with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" and include your name, address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement. If you opt out, you and FastPedia will not be bound by this arbitration provision, but all other parts of these Terms will continue to apply.

Changes to Arbitration Provision

If FastPedia makes any material changes to this arbitration provision, you may reject the change by sending written notice within 30 days of the change to [email protected], in which case your account will be governed by the arbitration provision in effect when you first accepted these Terms.

Severability

If any portion of this arbitration provision is found to be unenforceable or unlawful, then (1) the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed, (2) severance will not impact the enforceability of the remaining provisions, and (3) the severed provision will be replaced with an enforceable provision that most closely reflects the original intent.

However, if the Class Action Waiver is found to be unenforceable, then this entire arbitration provision shall be null and void, and the Dispute must be brought in court.

Time Limit for Claims

You agree that any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service must be filed within one (1) year after the claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred.

14. Miscellaneous Provisions

Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and FastPedia regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, and communications, whether oral or written.

Waiver and Severability

No waiver by FastPedia of any term or condition set forth in these Terms shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition. Any failure by FastPedia to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not be affected or impaired in any way.

Assignment

You may not assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms or your rights and obligations hereunder without FastPedia's prior written consent. FastPedia may freely assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms and its rights and obligations without restriction. Any attempted assignment by you in violation of this section shall be null and void.

Force Majeure

FastPedia shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, government actions, pandemics, internet or telecommunications failures, strikes, or equipment failures.

Export Compliance

You agree to comply with all applicable export and import control laws and regulations in your use of the Service. You represent that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country subject to U.S. embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country.

Electronic Communications

By using the Service, you consent to receiving electronic communications from FastPedia. These communications may include notices about your account, transactional information, and promotional messages. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications we provide electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

California Civil Code Section 1542 Waiver

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which provides: "A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party."

No Third-Party Beneficiaries

These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person or entity other than you and FastPedia.

Headings

The headings and captions in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not affect their interpretation.
