9. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Arbitration is a required condition of your use of this Site. You and Company agree that if any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Site, the Content, these Terms, or any of our actual or alleged intellectual property rights (a “Dispute”), that Dispute shall be resolved as follows.

A. Informal Resolution

You agree to attempt to resolve any Dispute informally before initiating arbitration. The party with a grievance must send written notice describing the Dispute and proposing a resolution. Your notice to us must be sent to support@thefinancehelper.com. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice, the parties will communicate to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If unresolved after that time, either party may initiate arbitration.

B. Binding Arbitration

If we cannot resolve a Dispute informally within sixty (60) days, then ANY AND ALL DISPUTES MUST BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION ADMINISTERED BY JAMS (Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc.) IN ACCORDANCE WITH JAMS’ THEN-CURRENT STREAMLINED ARBITRATION RULES AND PROCEDURES. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATE, EACH PARTY IS GIVING UP ITS RIGHT TO GO TO COURT AND TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD BY A JUDGE OR JURY.

We will pay all costs associated with the arbitration, including JAMS fees and the arbitrator’s fees. You are responsible for your own attorney’s fees if you choose to be represented. Any arbitration under this section shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S. Code §§ 1–16).

C. Time Limit to File Claims

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any claim must be initiated within one (1) year after the Dispute arises — or it will be forever barred. The parties expressly waive any contrary statute of limitations.

D. No Class Actions

YOU AGREE THAT ANY ACTION YOU BRING SHALL BE INDIVIDUALLY ON YOUR OWN BEHALF AND THAT YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO BRING A DISPUTE ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS IN ANY FORUM. THE ARBITRATOR SHALL NOT HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO FORM A CLASS OR PROCEED ON A COLLECTIVE BASIS.

E. Injunctive Relief

The foregoing arbitration provisions will not apply to any claim seeking an injunction or other equitable relief related to the Site, Content, or our intellectual property rights.

F. Governing Courts

If, and only if, a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the arbitration or class action waiver provisions above are unenforceable and that your claim may proceed via judicial process, you irrevocably agree to submit exclusively to the jurisdiction of the state courts of Pennsylvania. Each party irrevocably waives any objection to the laying of venue in such courts.

G. Jury Trial Waiver

YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE TO WAIVE THE RIGHT TO HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD BY A JURY IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT.

H. Small Claims Exception

Either party may bring a qualifying Dispute in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction.
