DISPUTE RESOLUTION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH US AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.

You agree that any dispute between you and Ashana Health arising out of or relating to these Terms of Service, (a “Dispute”) will be governed by the arbitration procedure outlined below.

Informal Dispute Resolution: We want to address your concerns without the need for a formal legal action. Before filing or otherwise initiating a legal claim against Ashana Health, you agree to try to resolve the underlying Dispute informally by contacting info@ashanahealth.com. We will try to resolve the Dispute informally by engaging in a dialogue with you through e-mail. If a Dispute is not resolved within 15 days after your e-mail submission, you or Ashana Health may proceed to formal resolution as set forth below.

We Both Agree To Arbitrate: You and Ashana Health agree to resolve any Disputes through final and binding arbitration, except as set forth under Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate, set forth below.

Opt-out of Agreement to Arbitrate: You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting info@ashanahealth.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms of Service and stating that you (include your first and last name) decline this arbitration agreement.

Arbitration Procedures: The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitration will be held in the State within the United States where you live or work, in the State of New Jersey, or in any other location agreed upon by the parties.

Arbitration Fees: The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Ashana Health will pay all arbitration fees for claims less than $__. Ashana Health will not seek its attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate: Either you or Ashana Health may assert claims, if they qualify, in a court of competent jurisdiction situated within the State of  New Jersey. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Ashana Health Services, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.

No Class Actions: You may only resolve Disputes with Ashana Health on an individual basis, and you agree not to bring a claim as a plaintiff or otherwise join a claim as a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed under this Agreement.

Judicial Forum for Disputes: Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and Ashana Health agree that any judicial proceeding will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New Jersey. Both you and Ashana Health consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such court. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

Limitation on Claims: Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to your use of this App must be filed within one (1) year after the accrual of such claim or after the cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action is waived, and will be barred forever.

CHANGE OF TERMS

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to make changes or modifications to these Terms and Conditions at any time and for any reason.  We will alert you about any changes by updating the “Last Updated” date of these Terms and Conditions and you waive any right to receive specific notice of each such change.  It is your responsibility to periodically review these Terms and Conditions to stay informed of updates.  You will be subject to, and will be deemed to have been made aware of and to have accepted, the changes in any revised Terms and Conditions by your continued use of the App after the date such revised Terms are posted.

These Terms of Use and your use of the App are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms of Use and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the App constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision.  These Terms of Use operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time.  We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control.  If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms of Use and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Terms of Use or use of the App.  You agree that these Terms of Use will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them. You hereby waive any and all defenses you may have based on the electronic form of these Terms of Use and the lack of signing by the parties hereto to execute these Terms of Use.
