21) Choice of Law; Arbitration Agreement & Waiver of Certain Rights
-
21.1) The EULA and the relationship between you and WelcomeYears will be governed by the laws of the State of Colorado without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
-
-
21.2) You and WelcomeYears agree that we will resolve any disputes between us through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and WelcomeYears hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim. All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and WelcomeYears or you and any of the Released Parties relating to the EULA, use of WelcomeYears’s Services, or your relationship or interaction with any of the Released Parties (a "Claim") will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration conducted in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA Rules"). You must file any Claim within one (1) year after such Claim arises or it will be barred. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration proceedings will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration, by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies, or as specifically permitted by state law. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. However, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable.
-
Payment of all filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules; however, upon a showing of financial hardship, WelcomeYears will consider payment of as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator's fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate. You and WelcomeYears shall be responsible for their own attorney’s fees and costs in arbitration, unless they are authorized by law or the arbitrator determines that a claim or proceeding was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose or in bad faith (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)).
-
This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or WelcomeYears from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and WelcomeYears also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and WelcomeYears retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the EULA, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in the EULA.
-
Neither you nor WelcomeYears may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or WelcomeYears's individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
-
If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section shall continue in full force and effect. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration you and WelcomeYears each waive any right to a jury trial. No waiver of any provision of this Section of the EULA will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of the EULA. The arbitrator may award in the arbitration the same damages or other relief available under applicable law, including injunctive and declaratory relief, as if the action were brought in court on an individual basis, including public injunctive relief. This Section of the EULA will survive the termination of your relationship with WelcomeYears.
-
THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR WELCOMEYEARS WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

-
23.4) Death-survivorship. The terms of this agreement shall survive the death of the user and be binding upon their heirs, executors, administrators, and assigns. Upon receipt of valid proof of death, WelcomeYears may terminate the user’s account. However, any obligations or liabilities incurred prior to the user’s death shall remain enforceable against their estate. This clause shall apply to all users, including owners in title or of record of any relevant property associated with services provided under this agreement.
-
23.5) Nondisclosure of Health Conditions. Users acknowledge that the recommendations, services, or modifications provided by WelcomeYears may depend on an accurate understanding of the physical, mental, or cognitive condition of the individual(s) receiving support. Any failure by the user or their agents to disclose relevant medical, psychological, or physical conditions that could reasonably impact the safety, appropriateness, or effectiveness of services offered shall release, indemnify, and hold WelcomeYears and its partners, contractors, and affiliates harmless from any claims, liabilities, or damages arising from such non-disclosures.
-
-
-
23.6) The EULA, together with the Privacy Policy and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference herein, constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and WelcomeYears regarding your use of and access to the Service, and, except as expressly permitted above, may be amended only by a written agreement signed by authorized representatives of all parties to the EULA. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any time thereafter, nor will a waiver of any breach or default of the EULA or any provision of the EULA constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in the EULA is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of particular provisions. In the event that any part of the EULA is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part shall be given effect to the greatest extent possible and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect. You agree that no joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and WelcomeYears as a result of the EULA or use of the Service.
