We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site or Services at any time, with or without notice, for any reason, including for breach of these Terms. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including §§7–9, 13–17) will survive.
17. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class-Action Waiver
Read this section carefully. It limits your rights, including your right to a jury trial and to participate in a class action.
17.1 Informal resolution
Before initiating arbitration, you and Toastique agree to attempt to resolve any dispute informally for at least 60 days. To start, send a written notice to legal@toastique.com (and by mail to Toastique Holdings, LLC, Attn: Legal, 764 Maine Avenue SW, Washington, D.C. 20024) describing the dispute, your claim, and the relief sought. We will respond and attempt good-faith resolution.
17.2 Mediation
If informal resolution fails, the parties will submit the dispute to non-binding mediation administered by JAMS or the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in Washington, D.C., before initiating arbitration. Each party bears its own costs of mediation.
17.3 Binding individual arbitration
Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Site, the Services, or your relationship with Toastique that is not resolved through mediation will be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by AAA under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, conducted in Washington, D.C. (or, at your election if you reside in the United States, by telephone, video, or in writing, or in the federal judicial district where you reside). The arbitrator (and not any court or agency) has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this arbitration agreement. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this section.
17.4 Class-action waiver
You and Toastique agree that any dispute will be brought in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, mass, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of more than one person and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If a court decides this class-action waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim (and only that claim) will proceed in court, but the rest of this Section 17 will remain in effect.
17.5 30-day arbitration opt-out
You may opt out of the arbitration agreement and class-action waiver in §§17.3–17.4 by sending a written opt-out notice within 30 days of first accepting these Terms (or, for existing users, within 30 days of these Terms taking effect). Send the notice to marketing@toastique.com or by mail to Toastique Holdings, LLC, Attn: Arbitration Opt-Out, 764 Maine Avenue SW, Washington, D.C. 20024, and include your name, the email address associated with your account, and a clear statement that you are opting out. Opting out will not affect any other provision of these Terms. If you opt out, the venue and choice-of-law provisions in §17.7 still apply.
17.6 Carve-outs
Notwithstanding §17.3, either party may bring (a) a claim in small-claims court if the claim qualifies, and (b) an action in court for injunctive or equitable relief to protect intellectual-property rights or to enforce confidentiality obligations.
17.7 Governing law and venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles, except that (a) the Federal Arbitration Act governs §17, and (b) any consumer-protection law of the state where you reside may also apply to the extent it provides greater protection. For any matter not subject to arbitration (including small-claims actions and IP-injunction claims), the parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts located in Washington, D.C., subject to applicable state law that requires venue elsewhere (including, for California residents, where required by California Business and Professions Code § 20040.5).
17.8 California, Colorado, Connecticut, and other state notices
California residents may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, CA 95834, or by phone at 1-800-952-5210. Residents of states with consumer-protection or franchise laws that override choice-of-law or venue provisions retain those rights to the extent required by law.
18. Notice and Electronic Communications
You consent to receive communications from us electronically (email, SMS where you opt in, in-Site notices). We may provide notice to you by email at the address on file or by posting on the Site. Notices to us must be sent to marketing@toastique.com and by mail to Toastique Holdings, LLC, 764 Maine Avenue SW, Washington, D.C. 20024.
19. Apple App Store / Google Play (if applicable)
If you obtain a Toastique application from the Apple App Store or Google Play, additional terms apply. Apple and Google are not parties to these Terms, but are intended third-party beneficiaries with respect to enforcing these Terms against you to the extent applicable.
20. International Users
The Site is operated from the United States and is intended for U.S. users. We make norepresentation that the Site is appropriate for use in other locations. If you access the Site from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.
21. Miscellaneous
-
Entire agreement. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any Service-specific terms, constitute the entire agreement between you and Toastique.
-
Severability. If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect.
-
No waiver. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that provision.
-
Assignment. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets.
-
Force majeure. We are not responsible for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
-
No third-party beneficiaries. Except as expressly stated, these Terms do not confer rights on third parties.
