Neither party has the authority to commit the other party in any way and will not attempt to do so or imply that it has the right to do so.

13.3 Severability

Except as described in Section 14 (Dispute Resolution), if any provision of these Terms is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable and, in any event, the rest of these Terms will continue in full force and effect.

13.5 Force Majeure

No failure, delay, or default in performance of any obligation of a party will constitute an event of default or breach of these Terms to the extent that such failure to perform, delay, or default arises out of a cause, existing or future, that is beyond the control and without negligence of such party, including action or inaction of governmental, civil, or military authority, fire, strike, lockout, or other labor dispute, flood, terrorist act, war, riot, theft, earthquake, or other natural disaster. The party affected by such cause will take all reasonable actions to minimize the consequences of such cause.

13.6 Governing Law and Venue

The enforceability and interpretation of Section 14 (Dispute Resolution) will be determined by the Federal Arbitration Act (including its procedural provisions). Apart from Section 14 (Dispute Resolution), these Terms will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Georgia without regard to conflicts of laws and principles that would cause the laws of another jurisdiction to apply.

13.7 Entire Agreement

Except as provided in these Terms and any exhibits or attachments, applicable Order Form(s), or other terms incorporated by reference into these Terms, these Terms supersede all prior and contemporaneous proposals, statements, sale materials, presentations, or agreements, oral and written. No oral or written information or advice given by us, our agents, or our employees will create a warranty or in any way increase the scope of the warranties or obligations under these Terms. Any term or condition stated in your vendor registration form or registration portal or in any purchase order document or similar document provided by you will be construed solely as evidence of your internal business processes, and the terms and conditions contained thereon will be null and void and have no effect with regard to these Terms between the parties and will be non-binding against us even if signed by us after you accept these Terms.

14. Dispute Resolution

14.1 Agreement to Arbitrate

If a dispute, claim, or controversy related to these Terms or the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) cannot be resolved through our Customer Support team, each party’s senior representatives will engage in good faith negotiations with the other party’s senior representatives to amicably resolve a Dispute (except for Disputes set forth in Section 14.3 (Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate), which may be litigated in court). If the parties are unable to resolve a Dispute within thirty (30) days after the first request to engage in good faith negotiations or within such other time period as the parties may agree to in writing, the parties may commence binding arbitration in accordance with Section 14.2 (Detail on Arbitration Procedure). If either party has a Dispute about whether this Section 14.1 can be enforced or applies to a Dispute between the parties, each party agrees that the arbitrator will decide that, too. Pursuant to this Section 14.1 - YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE GIVING UP THE RIGHT TO HAVE A JUDGE AND/OR JURY RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR SERVICES.

14.2 Details of Arbitration Procedure

Except for Disputes set forth in Section 14.3 (Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate), Disputes that have not been resolved between the parties will be submitted to binding arbitration, which will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA). The arbitration will be governed by the then-current version of AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (“Rules”) and will be held with a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with the Rules. To the extent anything described in this Section 14 conflicts with the Rules, the language of this Section 14 applies. Each party will be entitled to get a copy of non-privileged relevant documents in the possession or control of the other party and to take a reasonable number of depositions. All such discovery will be in accordance with procedures approved by the arbitrator. This Section 14 does not alter in any way the statute of limitations that would apply to any Disputes asserted by either party. The arbitrator’s award will be based on the evidence admitted and the substantive law of the Commonwealth of Georgia and the United States of America, as applicable, and will contain an award for each issue in Dispute. The award will provide in writing the factual findings and legal reasoning for such award. The arbitrator will not be entitled to modify these Terms. Except as provided in the Federal Arbitration Act, the arbitration award will be final and binding on the parties. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any arbitration proceedings will take place in Atlanta, Georgia.

14.3 Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate. Each party agrees it will go to court to resolve Disputes relating to:

14.4 Class Action Waiver

Each party agrees all and any Disputes between the parties must be brought against each other on an individual basis only. That means neither party can bring a Dispute as a plaintiff or class member in a class action, consolidated action, or representative action. An arbitrator cannot combine more than one person’s or entity’s Disputes into a single case and cannot preside over any consolidated class or representative proceeding. Each party agrees the arbitrator’s decision or award in one person’s or entity’s case can only impact the person or entity that brought a Dispute and cannot impact or otherwise be used to decide Disputes with other people or entities, including other Da Saw Group customers. If a court decides that this Section 14.4 is not enforceable or valid, then this Section 14.4 will be null and void. But the rest of these Terms will still apply.
