Dispute Resolution
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS CAREFULLY BECAUSE THEY REQUIRE YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH INDIGO BIOAUTOMATION, INC. ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMIT THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM INDIGO BIOAUTOMATION, INC.
a. Scope of Dispute Resolution Section
As used in this Dispute Resolution Section (the “Section”), “Dispute” means any disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, and/or demands in any way relating to or arising out of the use of the Website, to information shared by you or others over the Website or through other websites, portals, or online services operated by Indigo BioAutomation, to Indigo BioAutomation’s collection or sharing of your information, or to these Terms of Use. This Section does not apply to any of the following types of claims: (i) claims by employees of Indigo BioAutomation, Inc. related to the terms or conditions of their employment; (ii) any individual action brought in small claims court for disputes and actions fully within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction; or (iii) claims in which either party seeks injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the alleged unlawful use of copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets, or patents.
b. Waiver of Right to Pursue Class Action or Collective Claims (“Class Action Waiver Provision”)
You agree to resolve Disputes with us only in arbitration and only on an individual basis, and you waive any right to pursue any claims on a class, collective, or consolidated basis or in a representative capacity to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. You and Indigo BioAutomation agree that each may bring claims against the other only on an individual (non-class) basis and not as a plaintiff or a class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. Further, you and Indigo BioAutomation agree that a Dispute cannot be brought as a class, collective, consolidated, or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals to the maximum extent permitted by law.
c. Agreement to Arbitrate Claims; Waiver of Jury Trial
By agreeing to these terms of use, both you and Indigo BioAutomation are waiving the right to a jury trial on any Disputes. For any Dispute in any way relating to or arising out of the Website or these Terms of Use, you and Indigo BioAutomation agree that the Dispute shall be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration. No class, collective, consolidated, or other type of representative action arbitration will occur.
In addition, you and Indigo BioAutomation agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any arbitrable Dispute within thirty (30) days of the date the Dispute arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to Indigo BioAutomation shall be sent by certified mail or courier to Indigo BioAutomation, Inc., ATTN: Legal Department, 385 City Center Drive, Ste 200, Carmel, IN 46032. Your notice must include: (i) your name, street address, telephone number, the email address you use or used for your online services account (if and as applicable), and, if any, an email address at which you can be contacted; (ii) a brief description of the Dispute; (iii) the amount of money, if any, at issue in the Dispute; and (iv) the specific relief you are seeking. Indigo BioAutomation will send notice to your last known street and email addresses on file, if any. Any notice will include: (i) our name, street address, telephone number and an email address at which we can be contacted with respect to the Dispute; (ii) a description in reasonable detail of the nature and basis of the Dispute; and (iii) the specific relief that we are seeking.
If you and Indigo BioAutomation cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after the notice is received by the other party, then either you or Indigo BioAutomation may, as appropriate and in accordance with this Section, commence an arbitration proceeding with a written demand for arbitration.
d. Limitation on Time to Bring Action
You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action for or related to a Dispute brought by you must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or such claim or cause of action will forever be barred. Note that this may be a shorter time period than allowed under otherwise applicable law.
e. Arbitration Administration and Certain Procedures
You and Indigo BioAutomation agree that, if and as available, any arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association, except as otherwise modified by these Terms.
If the American Arbitration Association is unavailable or unwilling to conduct the arbitration for any reason, or the parties mutually agree that the American Arbitration Association should not conduct the arbitration, then by mutual agreement the parties shall select an alternative, impartial, substitute arbitration administration service. This agreement to arbitrate is not contingent on the American Arbitration Association being available or willing to conduct the arbitration.
You and Indigo BioAutomation also agree to the following relating to any arbitration proceeding:
- You and Indigo BioAutomation waive any right to bring Disputes before any court of law. Rights that you would have if you went to court, such as access to discovery, may be unavailable or limited in arbitration.
- Arbitration proceedings will take place in a mutually convenient location as agreed by the parties. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, the arbitrator will select the arbitration venue, which will be within Indiana. Alternatively, the arbitrator, in his or her discretion, may order that the arbitration proceedings be conducted by telephone, online, and/or solely based on written submissions.
- The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in Indiana and will be selected by the parties from the American Arbitration Association roster of arbitrators. If you and Indigo BioAutomation are unable to agree to an arbitrator within fourteen (14) days of the American Arbitration Association’s notice to the parties of its receipt of the arbitration demand, then the American Arbitration Association will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the American Arbitration Association Rules.
- The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of you or Indigo BioAutomation and only to the extent necessary to provide the relief warranted by your or Indigo BioAutomation’s individual claim. The arbitrator shall not have any power to issue relief to anyone but you or Indigo BioAutomation.
- These Terms affect interstate commerce, and the interpretation and enforceability of this Section shall be substantively, procedurally, and exclusively governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq., to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, except as otherwise modified by these Terms.
- Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
- All arbitration proceedings will be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto will be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award.
- You have the right at your own expense to be represented by an attorney of your own choosing. Indigo BioAutomation, likewise, has the right, at its own expense, to be represented by an attorney of its own choosing.
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the American Arbitration Association Rules. If, however, you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive for you as compared to the costs of litigation, Indigo BioAutomation will pay as much of the filing, administration and arbitrator fees as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive for you. If the arbitrator determines that the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration are frivolous, you agree to reimburse Indigo BioAutomation for all costs and fees associated with the arbitration that Indigo BioAutomation paid on your behalf which you otherwise would be obligated to pay under the American Arbitration Association Rules.
If any term, clause, or provision of this Section is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be so held to the minimum extent required by law, and all other terms, clauses, and provisions of this Section will remain valid and enforceable. Further, the waivers set forth in this Section are severable from the provisions of these Terms and will remain valid and enforceable, except as prohibited by applicable law.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
Entire Agreement
The Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy constitute the sole and entire agreement between you and Indigo BioAutomation regarding the Website and supersede all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations, and warranties, both written and oral, regarding the Website.
