  1. Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration.

    PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. THIS SECTION WILL NOT APPLY WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

    For purposes of Sections 16-18, "Us," "Our," and We" shall also include each of the Digital Platform Provider Parties. Notwithstanding any other provision in these Terms, you and We agree and acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act will govern their interpretation and enforcement and any proceedings relating to such interpretation or enforcement.

    Definition of Dispute

    "Dispute" is defined as any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to, or your use of, a Digital Platform, a Service, these Terms, the Privacy Policy, other applicable terms or policies maintained by Us, or your relationship with Us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory. Dispute shall be interpreted broadly. Dispute shall also include any dispute, claim, or controversy that arose before you assented to these Terms or after termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Dispute shall not include disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Services. You or We may seek interim or preliminary relief from a court of competent jurisdiction as needed to protect the status quo pending completion of arbitration.

    Mandatory Informal Pre-Dispute Resolution Process

    Before initiating an arbitration proceeding, you or We must give the other party notice of the Dispute by providing a written "Notice of Dispute" that is personally signed by you (if you are initiating the Notice of Dispute) or Our representative (if We are initiating the Notice of Dispute). The Notice of Dispute must contain the following information: (1) name, contact information (address, telephone number, and email address), and account information if applicable; (2) a detailed description of the nature and basis of the Dispute; and (3) a detailed description of the nature and basis of the relief sought, including a calculation for it.

    You must send any such Notice of Dispute to Us by email to legalnotices@jonata.com. We must send any such Notice of Dispute to you at the email address We have on file for you. You and We agree to attempt to resolve the Dispute through informal, good-faith negotiations for a sixty (60) day period from the date that a completed Notice of Dispute is received (or a longer period, if agreed to by the parties). If the party receiving the Notice of Dispute requests a telephone settlement conference as part of this informal process, you and We agree to participate in an effort to resolve the Dispute. Should We make this request, you agree to attend this conference (with your counsel, if you are represented). Should you make the request, We agree to have a representative attend this conference (with counsel, if We are represented).

    Compliance with this "Mandatory Informal Pre-Dispute Resolution Process" is a condition precedent to initiating arbitration. Neither you nor We may initiate an arbitration proceeding absent such compliance. If the sufficiency of a Notice of Dispute or compliance with this process is at issue, it may be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction at either party's election, and any arbitration proceeding shall be stayed. Such court shall have the authority to enforce this condition precedent to an arbitration proceeding, which includes the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a demand for arbitration and the assessment and collection of arbitration administrative fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may elect to raise non-compliance with this Mandatory Informal Pre-Dispute Resolution Process and seek relief in arbitration.

    Any applicable limitations period (including the statute of limitations) and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while you and We engage in this Mandatory Informal Pre-Dispute Resolution Process in an effort to resolve the Dispute.

    Small Claims Court

    Any Dispute that falls within the jurisdictional scope and limits of the small claims court where you reside must be brought in that court on an individual basis. Such Dispute must remain in small claims court and may not be removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction.

    Arbitration Procedures

    Except as otherwise provided herein, any Dispute that is not resolved through the Mandatory Informal Pre-Dispute Resolution Process or small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration to be held in the county or parish in which you reside.

    The arbitration shall be administered by Judicial Arbiter Group, Inc. or its successor ("JAG") and heard by a single, neutral arbitrator. The JAG shall administer the arbitration in accordance with the JAG's applicable rules including any applicable supplementary rules ("JAG Rules"), as modified by these Terms. If the JAG is unable or unwilling to administer the arbitration consistent with these Terms, the parties shall agree on an alternative provider that will do so. If the parties cannot agree, they shall jointly petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration provider that will do so.

    The party seeking to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with the demand for arbitration as specified in the JAG Rules and these arbitration provisions. If you are initiating arbitration, you shall serve the demand on Us by email to legalnotices@jonata.com. If We are initiating arbitration, We shall serve the demand at the email address that we have on file for you. The demand for arbitration must be personally signed by the party initiating arbitration (and their counsel, if represented). By signing the demand for arbitration, that party (and their counsel, if represented) certifies that they have complied with (1) the Mandatory Informal Pre-Dispute Resolution Process (and they shall attach the Notice of Dispute) and (2) the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), including that the claims and relief sought are neither frivolous nor brought for an improper purpose. The arbitrator is authorized to award any relief or impose any sanctions available under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 or applicable federal or state law against all appropriate persons (including counsel) as a court would.

    The JAG Rules shall govern the payment of all arbitration fees. You and We agree that arbitration is designed to be cost-effective for all parties. If a filing or other fee to initiative arbitration before JAG is required, either party may engage with JAG to discuss fee reductions and deferred payments. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide except the following, which are for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide: (1) issues that are specifically reserved for a court in these Terms and (2) issues related to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provisions.

    The arbitrator may award relief, including, but not limited to, monetary, declaratory, injunctive, or other equitable relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. The arbitrator must follow these Terms and can award the same individualized damages and relief as a court, including injunctive or other equitable relief necessary to provide relief as to the individualized claim. The arbitrator shall apply the cost-shifting provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 after entry of an award. Unless you and We otherwise agree, one person's claims may not be consolidated with those of any other person. If a court determines that a claim or request for public injunctive relief may not be waived and all appeals from that decision have been exhausted (or it is otherwise final), you and We agree that any claim or request for public injunctive relief shall be stayed and resolved by a court pending arbitration of the remaining claims and requests for relief.

    The decision of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall set forth the essential findings of fact and legal analysis. A judgment to enforce the award may be entered by a court of competent jurisdiction, however, any award that has been satisfied may not be filed or entered in court. The decision of the arbitrator shall have no preclusive effect in any proceeding involving non-identical parties.

    Each party reserves the right to request a telephonic, video, or in-person hearing from the arbitrator. You and Our representative shall personally appear at any hearing ordered by the arbitrator (along with your and Our counsel, if represented). For claims of more than $25,000 (and for claims seeking individualized injunctive, equitable, or declaratory relief that are not subject to small claims court as set forth above), a telephone, virtual, or in-person hearing shall be held and you and Our representative shall personally appear (along with your and Our counsel, if represented). The parties can agree to waive a hearing.

    Additional Procedures for Multiple Case Filings

    The following provisions set forth additional procedures that apply to multiple case filings. If fifty (50) or more similar claims are asserted against Us by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated (and your claim is one of them), you understand and agree that these additional procedures shall apply and the resolution of your Dispute might be delayed. Except as provided for below, no arbitrator or arbitration provider shall have any authority to hear, arbitrate or administer any class, coordinated, collective, consolidated, private attorney general, or representative action, or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration.

    • Stage One: Counsel for the claimants and counsel for Us shall each select fifty (50) claims per side to be filed and to proceed in individual arbitrations as part of an initial staged process. Any remaining claims shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration, nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed or collected in connection with those claims unless and until they are selected to be filed in individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. If a claim is withdrawn prior to adjudication, another claim shall be randomly selected to be filed and to proceed in this set. After this initial set of staged proceedings is completed, the parties shall engage in a global mediation session of all remaining claims with a retired federal or state court judge and We shall pay the mediator's fee.
    • Stage Two: If the remaining claims are not resolved at this time, counsel for the claimants and counsel for Us shall each select seventy-five (75) claims per side to be filed and to proceed in individual arbitrations as part of a second staged process, subject to any procedural changes the parties agree to in writing following mediation or through continuing, good faith discussions. Any remaining claims shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration, nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed or collected in connection with those claims unless and until they are selected to be filed in individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. If a claim is withdrawn prior to adjudication, another claim shall be randomly selected to be filed and to proceed in this set. After this second set of staged proceedings is completed, the parties shall engage in a global mediation session of all remaining claims with a retired federal or state court judge, and We shall pay the mediator's fee.

    Each case within any given stage shall be assigned to a different, single arbitrator, unless the parties otherwise agree in writing. If your claim is not resolved as part of the staged process set forth above, either:

    • Option One: You and We may, separately or by agreement, opt out of arbitration and elect to have your claim heard in a court of competent jurisdiction consistent with these Terms. You may opt out of arbitration by providing your individual, personally signed notice of your intention to opt out to Us by email at legalnotices@jonata.com within thirty (30) days after the conclusion of Stage Two. We may opt your claim out of arbitration by sending an individual, personally signed notice of Our intention to opt you out to your counsel within fourteen (14) days following the expiration of your thirty (30) day opt-out period. Counsel for the parties may agree to adjust these deadlines.

      OR

    • Option Two: If neither you nor We elect to have your claim heard in court consistent with Option One, then you agree that your claim will be resolved through continued staged proceedings as set forth below. Assuming the number of remaining claims exceeds two hundred (200), then 200 claims shall be randomly selected (or selected through a process agreed to by counsel for the parties) to be filed and to proceed in individual arbitrations as part of a staged process. If the number of remaining claims is fewer than 200, then all of those claims shall be filed and proceed in individual arbitrations. Each of these 200 cases shall be assigned to a single, different arbitrator. Any remaining claims shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration, nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed or collected in connection with those claims unless and until they are selected to be filed in individual arbitration proceedings as part of a staged process. After each set of claims are adjudicated, settled, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved, this process shall repeat consistent with these parameters. Counsel for the parties are encouraged to meet and confer, participate in mediation, and engage with each other and the JAG to explore ways to streamline the adjudication of claims, increase the number of claims to proceed at any given time, promote efficiencies, conserve resources, and resolve the remaining claims.

    Any relevant limitations period and filing fee or other deadlines shall be tolled subject to these Additional Procedures for Multiple Case Filings from the time the first cases are selected for a staged process until your claim is selected to proceed as part of a staged process or is settled, withdrawn, otherwise resolved, or opted out of arbitration.

    A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce these Additional Procedures for Multiple Case Filings and, if necessary, to enjoin the mass filing, prosecution, or administration of arbitrations and the assessment and collection of arbitration fees. If these Additional Procedures for Multiple Case Filings apply to your claim, and a court of competent jurisdiction determines they are not enforceable as to your claim, then your claim shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction consistent with these Terms.

    Opt Out of Future Changes

    If We make any future change to the arbitration provisions in this Section 17 (other than a change to the notice address), you may reject any such change by sending Us a personally signed, written notice of your decision to opt out of those changes by email to legalnotices@jonata.com within thirty (30) days of notice of the change and include your full name and your mailing address, telephone number, and email address, and a description of when and how you interacted with Us. Such opt out must be sent by you personally, and not by your agent, attorney, or anyone else purporting to act on your behalf. It must include a statement that you wish to reject the change to the arbitration provisions. This is not an opt out of arbitration altogether.

  1. Class Action Waiver and Jury Trial Waiver.

    PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY - IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. THIS SECTION WILL NOT APPLY WHERE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

    You and We agree that, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and as otherwise expressly and only as provided for in Section 16, any and all Disputes between you and Us shall be resolved only in individual arbitration. Each of you and Us expressly waive the right to have any Dispute brought, heard, administered, resolved, or arbitrated as a class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, and/or representative action, and neither an arbitrator nor an arbitration provider shall have any authority to hear, arbitrate, or administer any class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, and/or representative action, or to award relief to anyone but the individual in arbitration. This means that you and We may not bring a Dispute on behalf of a class or group and may not bring a Dispute on behalf of any other person unless doing so as a parent, guardian, or ward of a minor or in another similar capacity for an individual who cannot otherwise bring their own individual claim. You and We also expressly waive the right to seek, recover, or obtain any non-individual relief. Notwithstanding anything else in this agreement, this class action waiver does not prevent you or Us from participating in a classwide, collective, and/or representative settlement of claims.

    You and We further agree that if for any reason a claim does not proceed in arbitration, this class action waiver shall remain in effect, and a court may not preside over any action joining, coordinating, or consolidating the claims of multiple individuals against Us in a single proceeding, except that this class action waiver shall not prevent you or Us from participating in a classwide, collective, and/or representative settlement of claims. If there is a final judicial determination that any portion of this class action waiver is unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (i) any class, collective, coordinated, consolidated, and/or representative claims subject to the unenforceable or unlawful portion(s) shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction as provided for in these Terms; (ii) the portion of the class action waiver that is enforceable shall be enforced in arbitration; (iii) the unenforceable or unlawful portion(s) shall be severed from the arbitration agreement contained in these Terms; and (iv) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful portion(s) shall have no impact whatsoever on the enforceability, applicability, or validity of the arbitration agreement contained in these Terms or the arbitrability of any remaining claims asserted by you or Us.

    To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and We waive any right to a jury trial.

  1. Governing Law and Venue.

    All Disputes and the relationship between you and Us shall be governed, interpreted, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of California in the United States of America and applicable federal law of the United States of America, regardless of its place of execution, its place of performance, and any conflicts of law analysis. For the avoidance of any doubt, the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods shall have no application whatsoever.

    Unless you and We agree otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the state and federal courts of Napa County, California shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any Disputes between you and Us (except for Disputes brought in small claims court) that are not subject to arbitration or over any action involving the applicability or enforceability of any provisions of these Terms (including the arbitration provisions and class action waiver). You and We consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts and waive any objections as to personal jurisdiction or as to the laying of venue in such courts due to inconvenient forum or any other basis to seek transfer or change venue of such action to another court.

  1. Notice.

    Unless otherwise expressly stated in these Terms, We may give or deliver all other notices to you by means of a general notice posted on this or another page of a Digital Platform, as applicable and/or by email to the email address you provide to Us, and any notice provided to you shall be deemed effective as of its stated effective date.
