The Copyright Act provides at 17 U.S.C. § 512(f) that: "[a]ny person who knowingly materially misrepresents under [Section 512 of the Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512)] (1) that material or activity is infringing, or (2) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification, will be liable for any damages, including costs and attorneys' fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or copyright owner's authorized licensee, or by a service provider, who is injured by such misrepresentation, as the result of [ Welcome to the Jungle] relying upon such misrepresentation in removing or disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be infringing, or in replacing the removed material or ceasing to disable access to it." Welcome to the Jungle reserves the right to seek damages from any party that submits a Notification of Claimed Infringement or Counter Notification in violation of the law.

    6. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

      Generally. Except as described in the paragraphs below labeled "Exceptions" and "Opt-Out" and notwithstanding Clause 15 of the Terms, you and Welcome to the Jungle agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms, the Website, or communications from us will be resolved through binding arbitration. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, is less formal than a court proceeding, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims 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. Any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement will be resolved by the arbitrator.

      YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND OTTA ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

      Exceptions. Although we are agreeing to arbitrate most disputes between us, nothing in this Clause 6 will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

      Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this Clause 6 within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending an e-mail with the subject "ARBITRATION OPT-OUT" to notifications@welcometothejungle.com that specifies: your full legal name, the e-mail address you provided when you placed your Order, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration ("Opt-Out Notice"). Once Welcome to the Jungle receives your Opt-Out Notice, this Clause 6 will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Clause 15 of the Terms. The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

      Arbitrator. This arbitration agreement, and any arbitration between us, is subject the Federal Arbitration Act and will be administered by the JAMS under the rules applicable to consumer disputes (collectively, "JAMS Rules") as modified by these Terms. The JAMS Rules and filing forms are available online at www.jamsadr.org, by calling JAMS at +1-800-352-5267 or by contacting Welcome to the Jungle.

      Commencing Arbitration. Before initiating arbitration, a party must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by e-mail ("Notice of Arbitration"). Welcome to the Jungle's e-mail address for Notice of Arbitration is:notifications@welcometothejungle.com. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) identify the name or account number of the party making the claim; (b) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (c) 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 of Arbitration is received, you or Welcome to the Jungle may commence an arbitration proceeding. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Welcome to the Jungle will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than £10,000 or if the Company has received 25 or more similar demands for arbitration, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the JAMS Rules. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of the claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, then the payment of all fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules and the other party may seek reimbursement for any fees paid to JAMS.

      Arbitration Proceedings. Any arbitration hearing will take place in London, United Kingdom unless we agree otherwise or, if the claim is for £10,000 or less (and does not seek injunctive relief), you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a telephonic or video hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules in London, United Kingdom. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Welcome to the Jungle must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based.

      Confidentiality. The arbitrator will honor all evidentiary privileges recognized at law and will enter orders as appropriate in order to protect each parties' trade secrets or confidential information. Each party agrees to maintain either party's trade secrets or proprietary business information as confidential and to protect the confidentiality of any other information (such as private customer information) that is legally protected from disclosure. However, we may each disclose these matters, in confidence, to our respective accountants, auditors, and insurance providers.

      Arbitration Relief. Except as provided in the paragraph below titled "No Class Actions," the arbitrator can award any relief that would be available if the claims had been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Welcome to the Jungle before an arbitrator was selected, Welcome to the Jungle will pay to you the higher of: (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator and (b) £10,000. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding on all parties, except (1) for judicial review expressly permitted by law or (2) if the arbitrator's award includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, in which case that party shall have the right to seek judicial review of the injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction that shall not be bound by the arbitrator's application or conclusions of law. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction.

      No Class Actions. YOU AND OTTA 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 Welcome to the Jungle 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.

      Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Welcome to the Jungle makes any substantive change to this arbitration provision, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Welcome to the Jungle's e-mail address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case your account with Welcome to the Jungle may be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

      Enforceability. Notwithstanding Clause 15 of the Terms, disputes related to the enforceability of this Clause 6 are governed by the laws of the United States and the State of New York, United States without regard to conflict of law principles. If this Clause 5 is found to be unenforceable in whole or in part, or if Welcome to the Jungle receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Clause 6 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Clause 15 of the Terms will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

    7. Effect of Termination

      In addition to those clauses listed in Clause 14 of the Terms, Clauses 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 of this Part D will survive termination of the Terms.
