If unsolicited submissions are sent to Monetize Mobile™ via this Website, however, these submissions become the property of Monetize Mobile™ and may be used, copied, sublicensed, adapted, transmitted, distributed, publicly performed, published, displayed or deleted as Monetize Mobile™ sees fit. You agree that you are not entitled to any compensation, credit or notice whatsoever and that by sending an unsolicited submission you waive the right to make any claim against Monetize Mobile™, its parents or affiliates relating to unsolicited submissions, including, without limitation, unfair competition, breach of implied contract or breach of confidentiality.
Disputes
These Terms of Service, the Website, the Content, and the Service will be interpreted and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Nevada without reference to its rules of conflicts of law. Venue and jurisdiction for any federal or state court litigation shall be Clark County, Nevada. If you have a dispute concerning any aspect of the Service including the monthly charges or these Terms of Service, you should first contact customer support at the appropriate email address, by phoning the appropriate toll free telephone number, as designated above, or by sending a text message with the text "HELP" to the short code for the Service you wish to inquire about. If you have a dispute with Monetize Mobile™ we may in our discretion decide to provide you with a written settlement offer during this dispute process. If we provide you with a final written settlement offer and you do not accept it, or we cannot otherwise satisfactorily resolve your dispute, you can submit your dispute for resolution by arbitration before the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") by filing a Demand for Arbitration. If you file for arbitration, it will be conducted in accordance with the then current AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute including any claim that all or any part of these Terms of Service, including this provision, are unenforceable. If we proceed to arbitration, we will pay all AAA filing, administration and arbitrator fees unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)). For claims of Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000.00) or less, you can choose whether the arbitration proceeds in person, by telephone or based only on submissions. The arbitrator may award any form of individual or equitable relief, including injunctive relief. Any award will be final and conclusive to the parties and may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. If the arbitrator awards you relief that is greater than our final written settlement offer made before an arbitrator was selected, then we will pay you a minimum recovery of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000.00), plus we will reimburse any reasonable expenses incurred by your attorney, if any, including fees reasonably accrued for investigating, preparing and pursuing the claim in arbitration. Although under some laws we may have a right to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses if we prevail in an arbitration, we agree that we will not seek such an award from you. You and your attorneys are not required to keep the results of the arbitration confidential. This provision shall not be construed to preclude any party from seeking injunctive relief to protect its rights pending an outcome in arbitration.
YOU AND WE ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT, VIA YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THIS DISPUTE SECTION, YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, AS WELL AS YOUR RIGHT TO BRING, JOIN OR PARTICIPATE AS A PLAINTIFF OR A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS ACTION SUIT BROUGHT AGAINST US, ANY PERSON RELATED TO US OR A SERVICE PROVIDER USED BY US TO PROVIDE THE SERVICE.
You agree to the entry of injunctive relief to stop such a lawsuit or to remove you as a participant in such a suit. These Terms of Service do not constitute a waiver of any of your rights and remedies to pursue a claim individually and not as a class action in binding arbitration as provided above. This provision preventing you from bringing, joining or participating in class action lawsuits is an independent agreement.
