14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION WITH DOORVAANI.COM BY BINDING ARBITRATION. PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer's satisfaction by contacting DoorVaani.com customer care. In the unlikely event that DoorVaani.com's customer care department is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction, both parties agree to resolve such disputes through binding arbitration, 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. Any arbitration under this Agreement will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. For any non-frivolous claim, DoorVaani.com agrees to pay all costs of the arbitration, but in no event shall DoorVaani.com be responsible or costs incurred in bringing an action in court, unless directed otherwise by the court. In arbitration you are entitled to recover attorneys' fees from DoorVaani.com to at least the same extent as you would be in court. Further, under certain circumstances (as explained below), DoorVaani.com will pay you more than the amount of the arbitrator's award and will pay your attorney (if any) his or her reasonable attorneys' fees if the arbitrator awards you an amount that is greater than what DoorVaani.com has offered you to settle the dispute.
-
14.1 Arbitration Agreement
-
(a) DoorVaani.com and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between you and DoorVaani.com of US$3,000 and
greater. All claims less than $3,000 shall be addressed in small claims court. This agreement to arbitrate is intended
to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to:
- claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory;
- claims that arose before this or any prior Agreement (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising);
- claims that are currently the subject of purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class; and
- claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement.
- (b) A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other a written notice of the dispute by certified/ registered mail ("Notice"). The Notice to DoorVaani.com should be addressed to: Saner Apps Private Limited, 102 Sarada Enclave, Plot 33, Road 7, Balaji Colony, Nizampet, Hyderabad TG 500090 India ("Notice Address"). The Notice must (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (2) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). If DoorVaani.com and you do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or DoorVaani.com may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by DoorVaani.com or you shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator determines the amount, if any, to which you or DoorVaani.com is entitled.
- (c) The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration provision are for the court to decide. Unless DoorVaani.com and you agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in Hyderabad, AP India. If your claim is for INR 10,000 or less, or the equivalent amount in the currency of your account, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing.
-
(d) If, after a finding in your favor in any respect on the merits of your claim, the arbitrator issues you an award that is
greater than the value of DoorVaani.com's last written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected, then
DoorVaani.com will:
- pay you the amount of the award; and
- pay your attorney, if any, the amount of attorneys' fees, and reimburse any expenses (including expert witness fees and costs) that your attorney reasonably accrues for investigating, preparing, and pursuing your claim in arbitration ("the attorney premium").
- (e) The right to attorneys' fees and expenses discussed in paragraph (d) supplements any right to attorneys' fees and expenses you may have under applicable law. Thus, if you would be entitled to a larger amount under the applicable law, this provision does not preclude the arbitrator from awarding you that amount. However, you may not recover duplicative awards of attorneys' fees or costs.
- (f) 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. YOU AND DOORVAANI.COM AGREE THAT 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. Further, unless both you and DoorVaani.com agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's 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.
- (g) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if DoorVaani.com makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to the Notice Address) during the period of time that you are receiving Services, you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to the Arbitration Notice Address provided above. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this provision.
-
(a) DoorVaani.com and you agree to arbitrate all disputes and claims between you and DoorVaani.com of US$3,000 and
greater. All claims less than $3,000 shall be addressed in small claims court. This agreement to arbitrate is intended
to be broadly interpreted. It includes, but is not limited to:
15. CHOICE OF LAW: In the event of a dispute between us, whether in litigation or arbitration, the laws of India shall govern. To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and DoorVaani.com agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the Service or this Agreement must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
16. COMPLIANCE: DoorVaani.com's failure at any time to insist upon strict compliance with any of the provisions of this Agreement in any instance shall not be construed to be a waiver of such terms in the future. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and the unenforceable portion shall be construed as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties. The foregoing does not apply to the prohibition against class or representative actions that is part of the arbitration clause; if that provision is found to be unenforceable, the arbitration clause (but only the arbitration clause) shall be null and void.
17. THINGS BEYOND DoorVaani.com'S CONTROL: DoorVaani.com will not be liable for delays, damages or failures in performance due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including, but not limited to, acts of a governmental body, acts of God, acts of third parties, fires, floods, strikes or other labor-related disputes, of other things we do not control, or an inability to obtain necessary equipment or services.
