XIII. Dispute Resolution.
a. This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement shall apply if you (i) reside in the United States; or (ii) do not reside in the United States but bring any claim against Marriage Champs in the United States (to the extent not in conflict with Section XIV(a), below).
b. Overview of Dispute Resolution Process. Marriage Champs is committed to participating in a consumer-friendly dispute resolution process. To that end, these Terms provide for a two-part process for individuals to whom Section XIII(a) applies: (1) an informal negotiation directly with Marriage Champs’ customer service team, and (2) a binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) using its specially designed Consumer Arbitration Rules (as modified by this Section).
c. Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution and Notification. Prior to initiating an arbitration, you and Marriage Champs each agree to notify the other party of the dispute and attempt to negotiate an informal resolution to it first. We will contact you at the email address you have provided to us; you can contact Marriage Champs’ customer service team by emailing us. If after a good faith effort to negotiate one of us feels the dispute has not and cannot be resolved informally, the party intending to pursue arbitration agrees to notify the other party via email prior to initiating the arbitration. In order to initiate arbitration, a claim must be filed with the AAA and the written Demand for Arbitration (available at www.adr.org) provided to the other party, as specified in the AAA Rules.
d. Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Marriage Champs mutually agree that any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the breach, termination, enforcement or interpretation thereof, or to the use of the Marriage Champs App or the Collective Content (collectively, “Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration (the “Arbitration Agreement”). If there is a dispute about whether this Arbitration Agreement can be enforced or applies to our Dispute, you and Marriage Champs agree that the arbitrator will decide that issue.
e. Exceptions to Arbitration Agreement. You and Marriage Champs each agree that the following claims are exceptions to the Arbitration Agreement and will be brought in a judicial proceeding in a court of competent jurisdiction:
i. (i) Any claim related to actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights; and
ii. (ii) Any claim seeking emergency injunctive relief based on exigent circumstances (e.g., imminent danger or commission of a crime, hacking, cyber-attack).
f. Arbitration Rules and Governing Law. This Arbitration Agreement evidences a transaction in interstate commerce and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision. The arbitration will be administered by AAA in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules“) then in effect, except as modified here. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1–800–778–7879.
g. Modification to AAA Rules - Arbitration Hearing/Location. Any required arbitration hearing may be conducted (a) in Dallas County; (b) in any other location to which you and Marriage Champs both agree; (d) via phone or video conference; or (e) for any claim or counterclaim under $25,000, by solely the submission of documents to the arbitrator.
h. Arbitrator’s Decision. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court with proper jurisdiction. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim.
i. Jury Trial Waiver. You and Marriage Champs acknowledge and agree that we are each waiving the right to a trial by jury as to all arbitrable Disputes.
j. No Class Actions or Representative Proceedings. You and Marriage Champs acknowledge and agree that we are each waiving the right to participate as a plaintiff or class Registered User in any purported class action lawsuit, class-wide arbitration, private attorney-general action, or any other representative proceeding as to all Disputes. Further, unless you and Marriage Champs both otherwise agree in writing, in an arbitration proceeding, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding. If this paragraph is held unenforceable with respect to any Dispute, then the entirety of the Arbitration Agreement will be deemed void with respect to such Dispute.
k. Severability. In the event that any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is deemed illegal or unenforceable, such provision shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall be given full force and effect.
l. Changes. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section III, if Marriage Champs changes this Section XIII after the date you last accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice (including by email) within thirty (30) days of the date such change became effective, as indicated in the “Last Updated” date above or in the date of Marriage Champs’ email to you notifying you of such change. By rejecting any change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and Marriage Champs in accordance with the provisions of the “Dispute Resolution and Arbitration Agreement” section as of the date you last accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).
m. Except as provided in Section XIII(k), this Section XIII will survive any termination of these Terms and will continue to apply even if you stop using the Marriage Champs App or terminate your Marriage Champs Account.

XIV. General Provisions.
a. Governing Law. These Terms will be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas and the United States of America, without regard to conflict-of-law provisions. Judicial proceedings (other than small claims actions) that are excluded from the Arbitration Agreement in Section XIII must be brought in state or federal court in Dallas, Texas, unless we both agree to some other location. You and we both consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in Dallas, Texas.
b. Entire Agreement. Except as they may be supplemented by additional terms and conditions, policies, guidelines or standards, these Terms constitute the entire Agreement between Marriage Champs and you pertaining to the subject matter hereof, and supersede any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Marriage Champs and you in relation to the access to and use of the Marriage Champs App.
c. Restriction on Assignability or Transfer. These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than the parties. You may not assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms and your rights and obligations hereunder without Marriage Champs' prior written consent. Marriage Champs may without restriction assign, transfer or delegate these Terms and any rights and obligations hereunder, at its sole discretion, with 30 days prior notice. Your right to terminate these Terms by immediately discontinuing your use of and access to the Marriage Champs Services and the Marriage Champs App at any time remains unaffected.
d. Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be struck and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
e. Waivers. Marriage Champs’ failure to enforce any right or provision in these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by us in writing. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise permitted under law.
f. Notices. Unless specified otherwise, any notices or other communications to Registered Users permitted or required under these Terms, will be in writing and given by Marriage Champs via email, Marriage Champs App notification, or messaging service.
