13. Dispute Resolution by Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

  • Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution: Before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding, you must first attempt to resolve the dispute informally for at least sixty (60) days. You must send a written notice of your claim ("Dispute Notice") via email to contact@specialsauce.games with the subject line "Dispute Notice." The notice must include your name, address, email, user ID, a detailed description of the dispute, and the relief you seek.

  • Agreement to Arbitrate: If the dispute is not resolved through the Informal Dispute Resolution Process, you and Special Sauce agree to resolve all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services through final and binding arbitration before a single neutral arbitrator, instead of a judge or jury in a court. The arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules.

  • CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AND SPECIAL SAUCE 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, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding.

  • Opt-Out: You may opt out of this Arbitration Provision by sending a written opt-out notice to our mailing address at Section 14 within 30 days of the date you first agreed to these Terms.
