Hello, and welcome to revRebel. Please read our Advertising Terms of Use (“Terms”) and Privacy Policy carefully because they affect your legal rights, including an agreement to resolve any disputes that may arise between us by arbitration on an individual basis instead of by class actions or jury trials.
1 Introduction
Thanks for choosing revRebel (“revRebel”, “we”, “us”, “our”). By signing up or otherwise using the revRebel service, websites, and software applications (together, the “revRebel Service” or “Service”), or accessing any content or material that is made available by revRebel through the Service (the “Content”) you are entering into a binding contract with revRebel.
The revRebel Service includes social and interactive features. Use of the revRebel Service relies on several technical requirements.
Your agreement with us includes these Advertising Terms of Use (“Terms”), our Privacy Policy and our Terms and Conditions. (The Terms, Privacy Policy, Terms and Conditions, and any additional terms that you agree to, as discussed in the Entire Agreement section, are referred to together as the “Agreements”.) If you wish to review the terms of the Agreements, the effective version of the Agreements can be found on revRebel’s website. You acknowledge that you have read and understood the Agreements, accept these Agreements, and agree to be bound by them. If you don’t agree with (or cannot comply with) the Agreements, then you may not use the revRebel Service or consume any Content.
Please read the Agreements carefully. They cover important information about revRebel Services provided to you and any charges, taxes, and fees we bill you. The Agreements include information about future changes to the Agreements, export controls, automatic renewals, limitations of liability, privacy information, a class action waiver, and resolution of disputes by arbitration instead of in court.
Any information that you provided during sign-up can be corrected during the sign-up process by returning to the previous screens and correcting erroneous information.
In order to use the revRebel Service and access the Content, you need to (1) be 18 or older, or be 13 or older and have your parent or guardian’s consent to the Agreements, (2) have the power to enter a binding contract with us and not be barred from doing so under any applicable laws, and (3) be resident in the United States. You also promise that any registration information that you submit to revRebel is true, accurate, and complete, and you agree to keep it that way at all times.
2 Changes to the Agreements
Occasionally we may, in our discretion, make changes to the Agreements. When we make material changes to the Agreements, we’ll provide you with prominent notice as appropriate under the circumstances, e.g., by displaying a prominent notice within the Service or by sending you an email. In some cases, we will notify you in advance, and your continued use of the Service after the changes have been made will constitute your acceptance of the changes. Please therefore make sure you read any such notice carefully. If you do not wish to continue using the Service under the new version of the Agreements, you may terminate the Agreements by contacting us through the Customer Service contact form.
3 Enjoying revRebel
Here’s some information about all the ways you can enjoy revRebel.
3.1 Our Services & Paid Subscriptions
revRebel provides advertising services and other content. Certain revRebel services are provided to you free-of-charge. Other revRebel services require payment. The revRebel services that may be accessed after payment are currently referred to as the “Premium Service” and the “Unlimited Service” (together, the “Paid Subscriptions”). The revRebel service that does not require payment is currently referred to as the “Free Service”.
The Unlimited Service may not be available to all users. We will explain which services are available to you when you are signing up for the services. If you cancel your subscription to the Unlimited Service, or if your subscription to the Unlimited Service is interrupted (for example, if you change your payment details), you may not be able to re-subscribe for the Unlimited Service. Note that the Unlimited Service may be discontinued in the future, in which case you will no longer be charged for the Service.
3.2 Codes and other pre-paid offers
If you have purchased or received a code, gift card, pre-paid offer or other offer provided or sold by or on behalf of revRebel for access to a Paid Subscription (“Code”), separate terms and conditions presented to you along with the Code may also apply to your access to the Service and you agree to comply with any such terms and conditions.
3.3 Trials
From time to time, we or others on our behalf may offer trials of Paid Subscriptions for a specified period without payment or at a reduced rate (a “Trial”). revRebel reserves the right, in its absolute discretion, to determine your eligibility for a Trial, and, subject to applicable laws, to withdraw or to modify a Trial at any time without prior notice and with no liability, to the greatest extent permitted under the law.
For some Trials, we’ll require you to provide your payment details to start the Trial. AT THE END OF SUCH TRIALS, WE MAY AUTOMATICALLY START TO CHARGE YOU FOR THE APPLICABLE PAID SUBSCRIPTION ON THE FIRST DAY FOLLOWING THE END OF THE TRIAL, ON A RECURRING MONTHLY OR ANNUAL BASIS. BY PROVIDING YOUR PAYMENT DETAILS IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE TRIAL, YOU AGREE TO THIS CHARGE USING SUCH PAYMENT DETAILS. IF YOU DO NOT WANT THIS CHARGE, YOU MUST CANCEL THE APPLICABLE PAID SUBSCRIPTION THROUGH YOUR revRebel ACCOUNT’S SUBSCRIPTION PAGE OR TERMINATE YOUR revRebel ACCOUNT BEFORE THE END OF THE TRIAL. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO BE CHARGED ON A RECURRING MONTHLY OR ANNUAL BASIS, YOU MUST CANCEL THE APPLICABLE PAID SUBSCRIPTION THROUGH YOUR revRebel ACCOUNT’S SUBSCRIPTION PAGE OR TERMINATE YOUR revRebel ACCOUNT BEFORE THE END OF THE RECURRING MONTHLY OR ANNUAL PERIOD. PAID SUBSCRIPTIONS CANNOT BE TERMINATED BEFORE THE END OF THE PERIOD FOR WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS, revRebel WILL NOT REFUND ANY FEES THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID. THE LIMITATION SECTION SETS FORTH ADDITIONAL TERMS REGARDING CANCELLATION OF YOUR PAID SUBSCRIPTION.

5 Third Party Applications
The revRebel Service is integrated with third party applications, websites, and services (“Third Party Applications”) to make available content, products, and/or services to you. These Third Party Applications may have their own terms and conditions of use and privacy policies and your use of these Third Party Applications will be governed by and subject to such terms and conditions and privacy policies. You understand and agree that revRebel does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for the behavior, features, or content of any Third Party Application or for any transaction you may enter into with the provider of any such Third Party Applications.
6 User-Generated Content
revRebel users may post, upload, and/or contribute (“post”) content to the Service (which may include, for example, pictures, text, messages, information, and/or other types of content) (“User Content”). For the avoidance of doubt, “User Content” includes any such content posted to the revRebel Support Community as well as any other part of the revRebel Service.
You promise that, with respect to any User Content you post on revRebel, (1) you have the right to post such User Content, and (2) such User Content, or its use by revRebel as contemplated by the Agreements, does not violate the Agreements, applicable law, or the intellectual property (including without limitation copyright), publicity, personality, or other rights of others or imply any affiliation with or endorsement of you or your User Content by revRebel or any business, listing, entity or individual without express written consent from such individual or entity.
revRebel may, but has no obligation to, monitor, review, or edit User Content. In all cases, revRebel reserves the right to remove or disable access to any User Content for any or no reason, including but not limited to, User Content that, in revRebel’s sole discretion, violates the Agreements. revRebel may take these actions without prior notification to you or any third party. Removal or disabling of access to User Content shall be at our sole discretion, and we do not promise to remove or disable access to any specific User Content.
You are solely responsible for all User Content that you post. revRebel is not responsible for User Content nor does it endorse any opinion contained in any User Content. YOU AGREE THAT IF ANYONE BRINGS A CLAIM AGAINST revRebel RELATED TO USER CONTENT THAT YOU POST, THEN, TO THE EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER THE LAW, YOU WILL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD revRebel HARMLESS FROM AND AGAINST ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND EXPENSES OF ANY KIND (INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEY FEES AND COSTS) ARISING OUT OF SUCH CLAIM.
7 Rights you grant us

In any part of the revRebel Service, the Content you view, including its selection and placement, may be influenced by commercial considerations, including agreements with third parties. Some Content licensed, provided to or otherwise made available by revRebel (e.g. videos) may contain advertising as part of the Content. In such cases, revRebel will make such Content available to you unmodified.
If you provide feedback, ideas or suggestions to revRebel in connection with the revRebel Service or Content (“Feedback”), you acknowledge that the Feedback is not confidential and you authorize revRebel to use that Feedback without restriction and without payment to you. Feedback is considered a type of User Content.
You grant revRebel a non-exclusive, transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, perpetual (or, in jurisdictions where this is not permitted, for a term equal to the duration of the Agreements plus twenty (20) years), irrevocable, fully paid, worldwide license to use, reproduce, make available to the public (e.g. perform or display), publish, translate, modify, create derivative works from, and distribute any of your User Content in connection with the Service through any medium, whether alone or in combination with other content or materials, in any manner and by any means, method or technology, whether now known or hereafter created. Aside from the rights specifically granted herein, you retain ownership of all rights, including intellectual property rights, in the User Content. Where applicable and permitted under applicable law, you also agree to waive any “moral rights” (or the equivalent under applicable law) such as your right to be identified as the author of any User Content, including Feedback, and your right to object to derogatory treatment of such User Content.

If the provider believes that the content is not infringing, the provider may submit a counter-notification to revRebel with a request to restore the removed content.
If you believe that any Content does not comply with the User guidelines, please fill out our notice form.
10 Service limitations and modifications
revRebel will make reasonable efforts to keep the revRebel Service operational. However, certain technical difficulties or maintenance may, from time to time, result in temporary interruptions. To the extent permissible under applicable law, revRebel reserves the right, periodically and at any time, to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, functions and features of the revRebel Service, with or without notice, all without liability to you, except where prohibited by law, for any interruption, modification, or discontinuation of the revRebel Service or any function or feature thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you have prepaid fees for Paid Subscriptions that revRebel permanently discontinues prior to the end of the Pre-Paid Period (defined in the Payments and cancellations section), revRebel will refund you the prepaid fees for the Pre-Paid Period after such discontinuation. You understand, agree, and accept that revRebel has no obligation to maintain, support, upgrade, or update the Service, or to provide all or any specific content through the Service. This section will be enforced to the extent permissible by applicable law. revRebel and/or the owners of any Content may, from time to time, remove any such Content without notice to the extent permitted by applicable law.
11 Brand Accounts
If you establish a revRebel account on behalf of a company, organization, entity, or brand (a “Brand”, and such account a “Brand Account”), the terms “you” and “your”, as used throughout the Agreements, apply to both you and the Brand, as applicable.
If you open a Brand Account, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to grant all permissions and licenses provided in the Agreements and to bind the Brand to the Agreements.
12 revRebel Support Community
The revRebel Support Community is a place for discussions and exchange of information, tips, and other materials related to the revRebel Service. In order to use the revRebel Support Community, you must (1) have an existing revRebel account; and (2) authenticate your revRebel account for use on the Support Community (a “revRebel Support Account”). Instructions for creating a revRebel Support Account can be found on the Community registration page. In addition to the Agreements, you also agree to adhere to the revRebel Support Community Guidelines that you will be presented with upon registration (the “Support Community Guidelines”) when using the revRebel Support Community. If you do not agree to the Agreements or the Support Community Guidelines, you may not use the revRebel Support Community.
12.1 revRebel Support Accounts
By creating a revRebel Support Account, you confirm that any registration information that you submit to revRebel is true, accurate, and complete and that you will update such information in order to keep it current. It is strictly prohibited to include information in your profile that suggests that you are a revRebel employee or moderator or to otherwise pose as such an employee or moderator when using the revRebel Support Community. You also acknowledge and agree that revRebel may remove or reclaim your username at any time if revRebel in its absolute discretion considers such action appropriate.
12.2 No official support
No User Content or other content posted by revRebel employees, moderators and/or representatives on the revRebel Support Community should be construed as official support provided by revRebel. For details regarding official support, see the section Customer support. Any content provided or made available to you on the revRebel Support Community by revRebel employees, moderators, and/or representatives is provided on an “as is” basis without warranties of any kind.
You acknowledge that opinions expressed in User Content on the revRebel Support Community are those of contributors of such User Content only and do not reflect the opinions or policies of revRebel or any of its officers, shareholders, employees, agents, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, suppliers, or licensors.
12.3 Reward Program
The revRebel Support Community may feature a reward system whereby revRebel, in its sole discretion, may reward users based on the amount of “Reviews” received or quality of responses by a user. You agree to only give Reviews to other users (and not to yourself) and only when deserved, and to refrain from any attempts to manipulate the reward system, e.g., by creating multiple accounts or artificial responses. You acknowledge that revRebel’s decision in respect of any reward shall be final and binding.
13 Customer support
For customer support with account-related and payment-related questions (“Customer Support Queries”), please submit a ticket to our Customer Service department using the contact form on the Contact Us section of our website. We will use reasonable endeavours to respond to all Customer Support Queries within a reasonable time frame but we make no guarantees or warranties of any kind that any Customer Support Queries will be responded to within any particular time frame and/or that we will be able to satisfactorily answer any such queries.
14 Export control
revRebel’s products may be subject to U.S. export and re-export control laws and regulations or similar laws applicable in other jurisdictions, including the Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) maintained by the U.S. Department of Commerce, trade and economic sanctions maintained by the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”), and the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”) maintained by the Department of State. You warrant that you are (1) not located in Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, or Syria; and (2) are not a denied party as specified in the regulations listed above.
You agree to comply with all applicable export and reexport control laws and regulations, including the EAR, trade and economic sanctions maintained by OFAC, and the ITAR. Specifically, you agree that you shall not – directly or indirectly – sell, export, reexport, transfer, divert, or otherwise dispose of any products, software, or technology (including products derived from or based on such technology) received from revRebel under the Agreements to any destination, entity, or person prohibited by any applicable laws or regulations of the United States or any other jurisdiction without obtaining prior authorization from the competent government authorities as required by those laws and regulations. This export control clause shall survive termination or cancellation of the Agreements.
15 Payments and cancellations
Paid Subscriptions can be purchased directly from revRebel or through a third party, such as a telephone company, either by (1) paying a monthly or annual subscription fee; or (2) pre-payment giving you access to the revRebel Service for a specific time period (“Pre-Paid Period”). If you have purchased a Paid Subscription using a Code, your Paid Subscription will automatically terminate at the end of the Pre-Paid Period, or when there is an insufficient pre-paid balance to pay for the Service. When you register for a Paid Subscription, Trial, or Code online, you consent to get access to revRebel Premium immediately.
Unless your Paid Subscription has been purchased as a Pre-Paid Period, your payment to revRebel will automatically renew at the end of the subscription period, unless you cancel your Paid Subscription through your subscription page before the end of the current subscription period. The cancellation will take effect the day after the last day of the current subscription period, and you will be downgraded to the Free Service. However, if you cancel your payment or Paid Subscription and/or terminate any of the Agreements before the end of the current subscription period, we will not refund any subscription fees already paid to us. The refund method will depend upon the payment method.
If you believe you are entitled to receive a refund of any monies paid to revRebel, please contact Customer support.
If you have purchased your Paid Subscription through a third party, your subscription is also subject to the terms of your agreement with that third party (in addition to these Terms). To cancel your subscription, you must cancel directly with that third party.
revRebel may change the price for the Paid Subscriptions, Pre-Paid Period (for periods not yet paid for), or Codes from time to time, and will communicate any price changes to you in advance and, if applicable, how to accept those changes. Price changes for Paid Subscriptions will take effect at the start of the next subscription period following the date of the price change. As permitted by local law, you accept the new price by continuing to use the revRebel Service after the price change takes effect. If you do not agree with the price changes, you have the right to reject the change by unsubscribing from the revRebel Service prior to the price change going into effect. Please therefore make sure you read any such notification of price changes carefully.
16 Term and termination
The Agreements will continue to apply to you until terminated by either you or revRebel. However, you acknowledge and agree that the perpetual license granted by you in relation to User Content, including Feedback, is irrevocable and will therefore continue after expiry or termination of any of the Agreements for any reason. revRebel may terminate the Agreements or suspend your access to the revRebel Service at any time, including in the event of your actual or suspected unauthorised use of the revRebel Service and/or Content, or non-compliance with the Agreements. If you or revRebel terminate the Agreements, or if revRebel suspends your access to the revRebel Service, you agree that revRebel shall have no liability or responsibility to you, and revRebel will not refund any amounts that you have already paid, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law. To learn how to terminate your revRebel account, please contact us through the Customer Service contact form which is available on our Contact Us page. This section will be enforced to the extent permissible by applicable law. You may terminate the Agreements at any time.
Sections 6, 7, 8, 10, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24 herein, as well as any other sections of the Agreements that, either explicitly or by their nature, must remain in effect even after termination of the Agreements, shall survive termination.

Nothing in the Agreements removes or limits revRebel’s liability for fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, death or personal injury caused by its negligence, and, if required by applicable law, gross negligence. Some aspects of this section may not apply in some jurisdictions if prohibited by applicable law.
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST revRebel MUST BE COMMENCED (BY FILING A DEMAND FOR ARBITRATION UNDER SECTION (24.2.1) OR FILING AN INDIVIDUAL ACTION UNDER SECTION (24.2.2) WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DATE THE PARTY ASSERTING THE CLAIM FIRST KNOWS OR REASONABLY SHOULD KNOW OF THE ACT, OMISSION, OR DEFAULT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; AND THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO ANY REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM NOT ASSERTED WITHIN THAT TIME PERIOD.
19 Third party rights
You acknowledge and agree that the owners of the Content and certain distributors (such as app store providers) are intended beneficiaries of the Agreements and have the right to enforce the Agreements directly against you. Other than as set out in this section, the Agreements are not intended to grant rights to anyone except you and revRebel, and in no event shall the Agreements create any third party beneficiary rights. Furthermore, the rights to terminate, rescind, or agree to any variation, waiver, or settlement of the Agreements are not subject to the consent of any other person.
If you have downloaded the App from the Apple, Inc.

This Agreement is between you and revRebel only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the Service and the content thereof.

Other than as stated in this section or as explicitly agreed upon in writing between you and revRebel, the Agreements constitute all the terms and conditions agreed upon between you and revRebel and supersede any prior agreements in relation to the subject matter of these Agreements, whether written or oral.
Please note, however, that other aspects of your use of the revRebel Service may be governed by additional agreements. That could include, for example, access to the revRebel Service as a result of a gift card or free or discounted Trials. When you are presented with an offer for such aspects of your use, you will be presented with any related additional agreement, and you may have an opportunity to agree to additional terms. Some of those additional terms are listed on revRebel’s website. To the extent that there is any irreconcilable conflict between any additional terms and these Terms, the additional terms shall prevail.
21 Severability and waiver
Unless as otherwise stated in the Agreements, should any provision of the Agreements be held invalid or unenforceable for any reason or to any extent, such invalidity or enforceability shall not in any manner affect or render invalid or unenforceable the remaining provisions of the Agreements, and the application of that provision shall be enforced to the extent permitted by law.
Any failure by revRebel or any third party beneficiary to enforce the Agreements or any provision thereof shall not waive revRebel’s or the applicable third party beneficiary’s right to do so.

revRebel may assign the Agreements or any part of them, and revRebel may delegate any of its obligations under the Agreements. You may not assign the Agreements or any part of them, nor transfer or sub-license your rights under the Agreements, to any third party.
23 Indemnification
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify and hold revRebel harmless from and against all damages, losses, and expenses of any kind (including reasonable attorney fees and costs) arising out of: (1) your breach of this Agreement; (2) any User Content; (3) any activity in which you engage on or through the revRebel Service; and (4) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
24 Choice of law, mandatory arbitration and venue
24.1 Governing Law / Jurisdiction
The Agreements (and any non-contractual disputes/claims arising out of or in connection with them) are subject to the laws of the state of Hawaii, United States of America, without regard to choice or conflicts of law principles.
Further, you and revRebel agree to the jurisdiction of Honolulu to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy that relates to or arises in connection with the Agreements (and any non-contractual disputes/claims relating to or arising in connection with them) and is not subject to mandatory arbitration under Section 24.2.1.
revRebel does not accept any codes of conduct as mandatory in connection with the services provided under this agreement.
24.2 ARBITRATION AGREEMENT
This Arbitration Agreement applies only to users in the United States.
24.2.1 Dispute resolution and arbitration
You and revRebel agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and revRebel arising in connection with or relating in any way to these Agreements or to your relationship with revRebel as a user of the Service (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of the Agreements) will be determined by mandatory binding individual (not class) arbitration. You and revRebel further agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope or validity of the Arbitration Agreement or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award any relief, including declaratory or injunctive relief, benefiting anyone but the parties to the arbitration. This arbitration provision will survive termination of the Agreements.
24.2.2 Exceptions
Notwithstanding the clause above (24.2.1), you and revRebel both agree that nothing in this Arbitration Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights, at any time, to (1) bring an individual action in a U.S. small claims court or (2) bring an individual action seeking only temporary or preliminary individualized injunctive relief in a court of law, pending a final ruling from the arbitrator. In addition, this Arbitration Agreement doesn’t stop you or us from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf (or vice versa).
24.2.3 No Class Or Representative Proceedings: Class Action Waiver
YOU AND revRebel AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Unless both you and revRebel agree, no arbitrator or judge may consolidate more than one person’s claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court.
24.2.4 Arbitration rules
Either you or we may start arbitration proceedings. Any arbitration between you and revRebel will take place under the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) then in force (the “AAA Rules”), as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. You and revRebel agree that the Federal Arbitration Act applies and governs the interpretation and enforcement of this provision (despite the choice of law provision above). The AAA Rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. revRebel can also help put you in touch with the AAA.
Any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your billing address, provided that if the claim is for $25,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted (1) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (2) through a non-appearance based telephonic hearing; or (3) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address.
If you choose to file an arbitration proceeding and you are required to pay a filing fee, revRebel will reimburse you for that filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US $10,000, in which case you will be responsible for the filing fee. revRebel will pay any other arbitration fees, including your share of arbitrator compensation, unless otherwise required by AAA rules or court order. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
24.2.5 Notice; Process
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail, Federal Express, UPS, or Express Mail (signature required), or in the event that we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”). revRebel’s address for Notice is: revRebel, Attn: General Counsel, 2113 Lime St., #A3, Honolulu, HI 96826. The Notice must (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (2) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or revRebel may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or revRebel shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. In the event our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, and the arbitrator issues you an award that is greater than the value of revRebel’s last written settlement offer, then revRebel will instead pay you either the amount of the award or $100, whichever is greater. All documents and information disclosed in the course of the arbitration shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who have a need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.
24.2.6 Enforceability
If this Arbitration Agreement is invalidated in whole or in part, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 24.1 shall govern any claim in court arising out of or related to the Agreements.
