Arbitration Agreement

  1. Arbitration Agreement. In case of any disputes arising from the use of Monster Reach and/or its Services, we will take any measures to resolve the dispute in an amicable manner.
    1. You hereby agree to try to resolve a dispute by first contacting us via support@monsterreach.com. We’ll try to resolve the dispute informally by contacting you via email, phone, or other means of communication. If the parties fail to resolve the dispute within thirty days of the receipt of your first notification outlining the problem, You and Monster Reach agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Services, including our website, user interfaces, these terms and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration Sydney, New South Wales, instead of in courts of general jurisdiction. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. You agree that, by agreeing to these terms, the Commercial Arbitration Act 2010 (NSW) governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision, and that you and Monster Reach are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.
    2. EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.
    3. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive 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.
    4. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement and the termination of your Monster Reach Account.
