Dispute Resolution

Arbitration Agreement

Please read the following ARBITRATION AGREEMENT carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with Cartridge and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from Cartridge.

Arbitration Rules; Applicability of Arbitration Agreement. 

The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration. If such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in New York, New York. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the "Rules") then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes.

Costs of Arbitration. 

The Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. Cartridge will not seek its attorneys' fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.

Small Claims Court; Infringement. 

Either you or Cartridge may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Brooklyn, New York or any United States county where you live or work. Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing obligation to arbitrate disputes, each party shall have the right to pursue injunctive or other equitable relief at any time, from any court of competent jurisdiction, to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights.
