3.1 The Content and Application are provided to you “as is” and without warranty. Heerie and its subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, employees, agents, partners, and licensors (collectively, the “Heerie Parties”) hereby disclaim all warranties with regard to same, including, without limitation, (a) all implied warranties and conditions of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, performance, accuracy, reliability, availability, compatibility, title and noninfringement; (b) any errors or defects will be corrected; (c) the Application is free of viruses or other harmful components; or (d) the results of using the Application will meet your requirements.

3.3 You expressly agree to release the Heerie Parties from any and all liability connected with your activities, and promise not to sue the Heerie Parties for any claims, actions, injuries, damages, or losses associated with your activities, whether based on contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise, even if Heerie has been advised of the possibility of damages.

1. Arbitration

Except as set forth elsewhere in these Terms to the contrary, any dispute, controversy or claim relating to these Terms or the Application shall be resolved through a confidential, final, binding, and non-appealable arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in effect from time to time (with right to engage in pre-hearing discovery in connection with such arbitration proceedings if approved by the arbitrator). The place of arbitration shall be in New York County, New York. A single arbitrator shall be appointed by agreement between the parties or, failing such agreement, by the AAA. The parties hereto agree that each party will only be permitted to bring claims against the other party only on an individual basis and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding. Unless both parties agree in writing otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate or join more than one person’s or party’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a consolidated, representative, or class proceeding. In addition, the arbitrator may award relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief necessitated by that party’s individual claim(s). Any relief awarded cannot affect other contributors or users. The arbitrator may grant any remedy that he or she deems just and equitable within the scope of these Terms. The award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding and judgment thereon may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) of the prevailing party shall be borne and paid by the part(ies) that the arbitrator determines are the non-prevailing part(ies). Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek interim or temporary injunctive relief in any court of appropriate jurisdiction with respect to any alleged breach of such party’s intellectual property or proprietary rights. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then this arbitration provision shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
