(a) Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. All claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by ACT that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed to, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and ACT and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.

(b) Notice Requirement and Informal Dispute Resolution. **Before either party may seek arbitration, the party must first send to the other party a written Notice of Dispute ( “Notice” ) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, and the requested relief. A Notice to ACT should be sent to: Kate C. Wilde, Ltd. At Church Cottage, Lodge Lane, Wisseet, Halesworth, Suffolk, IP190JQ, UK, with a copy via email to Attorney Wendy Estela, [email protected]. After the Notice is received, you and ACT may attempt to resolve the claim or dispute informally. If we do not resolve the claim or dispute within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, either party may begin an arbitration proceeding. The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

(i) Confidentiality. **All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitration compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential. The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law.

(c) Miscellaneous. If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. Any or all of the rights and limitations set forth in this Arbitration Agreement may be waived by the party against whom the claim is asserted. Such waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with ACT. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or ACT may bring an individual action in small claims court. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration. A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Arbitration Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, claims of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secrets shall not be subject to this Arbitration Agreement. In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within Middlesex County, Connecticut, for such purpose, and waive any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum objections thereto.
