11. Term; Termination of Use

These Terms of Use are effective beginning when You access the Service. You agree that ChattBack may, in its sole discretion, at any time terminate Your access to the Service and any account(s) You may have in connection with the Service. Access to the Service may be monitored by ChattBack. You may discontinue use of the Service at any time.

12. Changes

ChattBack reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to modify the Terms of Use in whole or in part, at any time; provided that ChattBack will endeavor to provide You with prior notice of any material changes to the Terms of Use. Please check this page periodically for changes. Changes in the Terms of Use will be effective when notice of such change is posted.

13. Copyright Complaints

We respect the intellectual property of others, and we ask You to do the same. We may, in appropriate circumstances and at our sole discretion, terminate the access of users who infringe the copyright rights of others. ChattBack's intellectual property policy is to (i) remove or disable access to material that ChattBack believes in good faith, upon notice from an intellectual property owner or his or her agent, is infringing the intellectual property of a third party by being made available through the Service, and (ii) remove any Content uploaded to the Service by "repeat infringers." ChattBack considers a "repeat infringer" to be any user that has uploaded Content to or through the Service and for whom ChattBack has received more than two takedown notices compliant with the provisions of 17 U.S.C. 512 with respect to such Content. ChattBack has discretion, however, to terminate the account of any user after receipt of a single notification of claimed infringement or upon ChattBack's own determination. If You believe that Your work or content has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please contact us at info@ChattBack.com and provide the following information required by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. 512: (i) A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the work(s) that has/have been allegedly infringed; (ii) identification of works or materials being infringed, or, if multiple works are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works; (iii) identification of the specific material that is claimed to be infringing or to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient to permit ChattBack to locate the material; (iv) information reasonably sufficient to permit ChattBack to contact You, such as an address, telephone number, and, if available, an electronic mail address at which You may be contacted; (v) a statement that You have a good faith belief that the use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and; and (vi) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate, and under penalty of perjury, that You are authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. Our agent for notice of claims of copyright infringement on this Service can be reached using the contact information above.

14. Dispute Resolution

a. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between You and ChattBack in the most expedient and cost effective manner, You and ChattBack agree that any dispute arising out of or in any way related to these Terms of Use or Your use of the Service will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or in any way related to these Terms of Use or Your use of the Service, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms of Use. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS OF USE, YOU AND ChattBack ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT.

b. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of the Section entitled "Generally" directly above, nothing in these Terms of Use will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in aid of arbitration from a court of competent jurisdiction; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

c. Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a notice of the dispute to the other party by electronic mail ("Notice"). ChattBack's address for Notice is: info@chattback.com. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, You or ChattBack may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by You or ChattBack must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in Your favor with a monetary award that exceeds the last written settlement amount offered by ChattBack prior to selection of an arbitrator, ChattBack will pay You the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by ChattBack in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator's award; or (iii) $15,000.

d. No Class Actions. YOU AND ChattBack AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both You and ChattBack agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

g. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If ChattBack makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to ChattBack's address for Notice, You may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to ChattBack's address for Notice, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes You rejected, will continue to govern any disputes between You and ChattBack.

h. Enforceability. If the Section entitled "No Class Actions" is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Dispute Resolution Section is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution Section will be null.

18. Contact Information

15. Entire Agreement

Except as expressly set forth in these Terms of Use, these Terms of Use (together with the Privacy Policy, if applicable) constitute the entire agreement between ChattBack and You with respect to Your use of the Service. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of the Agreement or portion thereof, to be unenforceable, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect the intent of the Agreement, and the remainder of the Terms of Use shall continue in full force and effect. You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between You and ChattBack as a result of these Terms of Use or use of the Service. You further acknowledge that by submitting Content, no confidential, fiduciary, contractually implied or other relationship is created between You and ChattBack other than pursuant to these Terms of Use. ChattBack's failure to act on or enforce any provision of these Terms of Use will not be construed as a waiver of that provision or any other provision in these Terms of Use. No waiver will be effective against ChattBack unless made in writing, and no such waiver will be construed as a waiver in any other or subsequent instance.
