The Service is controlled, operated, and administered by Notary Source LLC from its offices within the United States of America.

You further agree that you shall not access or use the Service from any jurisdiction or in any manner that is prohibited by applicable law, including, without limitation, sanctions regulations administered by the U.S. Department of Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) or the U.S. Department of Commerce.

16. Arbitration

In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions—including any question regarding their existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach, or termination—whether sounding in contract, tort, statute, or otherwise at law or in equity, such dispute shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.).

 

Arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) or another comparable arbitration organization as mutually agreed upon by the Parties. The arbitration shall take place at a location mutually agreed upon by the Parties, or, if no agreement is reached, at a location determined by the arbitrator in accordance with applicable AAA rules.

 

The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes, including, without limitation, any issues relating to the scope, enforceability, or interpretation of this arbitration provision. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding on the Parties, and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

The Parties further agree:

  • That this arbitration agreement survives the termination of these Terms and Conditions;

  • That all claims and disputes, including tort claims or claims based on statute, arising out of or in connection with these Terms and Conditions, shall be subject to arbitration;

  • That the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings under this arbitration provision, to the exclusion of any conflicting state law, including the Texas Arbitration Act.

17. Attorneys’ Fees and Costs

In the event that any legal, equitable, or arbitral proceeding is initiated concerning these Terms and Conditions, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with such proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.

18. Class Action Waiver

Any arbitration conducted pursuant to these Terms and Conditions shall be strictly on an individual basis. Class arbitrations and class, collective, or representative actions of any kind are expressly prohibited.

 

You and Notary Source LLC (“the Parties”) agree that any claims, disputes, or controversies arising out of or relating to these Terms and Conditions, the breach thereof, or the use of the Website, shall be resolved exclusively through binding individual arbitration, and not in any representative, collective, or class action capacity, including, without limitation, as a named plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, private attorney general, or representative proceeding.

 

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law:

  • The arbitrator shall have no authority to consolidate the claims of multiple individuals, nor to preside over any form of a collective, class, or representative proceeding;

  • Each party may bring claims only in their individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any putative class or representative proceeding;

  • Unless both you and Notary Source LLC expressly agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not join or consolidate claims of more than one person, nor may the arbitrator otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

This Class Action Waiver is an essential part of the agreement to arbitrate and shall be severable in the event it is found unenforceable or unlawful. If this waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the arbitration agreement shall be null and void, and the dispute must be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of Texas.
