Effective as of August 02, 2023, GainMed, LLC., (“GainMed”) and its subsidiaries, (collectively, “GainMed” or “we” or “us” or “our”) have updated terms of use (“Terms”) that apply to the use of our Websites (as herein defined).

THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION THAT, AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12 BELOW, REQUIRES THE USE OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR ANY OTHER COURT PROCEEDINGS OR CLASS ACTIONS OF ANY KIND.

© TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL GAINMED, OR ITS PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE PARENT OR AFFILIATED COMPANIES, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY PERSONAL INJURY, PROPERTY DAMAGE, LOST PROFITS, COST OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER AND/OR DEVICE OR TECHNOLOGY FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION OR FOR ANY FORM OF DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES BASED ON ANY CAUSES OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF USE OF THE WEBSITES OR ANY ALLEGED FAILURE OF PERFORMANCE, ERROR, OMISSION, INTERRUPTION, DELETION, DEFECT, OR DELAY IN SERVICE, OPERATION, OR TRANSMISSION OF THE WEBSITES, OR ANY ALLEGED COMPUTER VIRUS, COMMUNICATION LINE FAILURE, THEFT OR DESTRUCTION OF PROPERTY, AND/OR UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO, ALTERATION OF, OR USE OF OR POSTING OF ANY RECORD, CONTENT, OR TECHNOLOGY, PERTAINING TO OR ON THE WEBSITES.

GainMed reserves the right to take over the exclusive defense of any claim for which we are entitled to indemnification under this section. In such event, you shall provide GainMed with such cooperation as is reasonably requested by the GainMed.

Without limiting the foregoing, we shall have the right to immediately terminate your access to the Websites in the event of any conduct by you which we, in our sole discretion, consider to be unacceptable, or in the event of any breach by you of these Terms by Contacting Us. The provisions of Sections 2, and 5-14 shall survive termination of these Terms.

(a) Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and GainMed in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, and except as described in Section 12(b), you and GainMed agree that every dispute arising in connection with the Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitrators can award damages and other relief that is non-binding upon the parties, but arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the Terms, your use of the Services, and our communications with you, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of the Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND GAINMED ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES BY BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU MAY OPT OUT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION WITHIN 30 CALENDAR DAYS AFTER THE DATE THAT YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS BY SENDING A LETTER TO GAINMED AT THE ADDRESS IDENTIFIED IN SECTION 15. IN ORDER TO BE EFFECTIVE, THE LETTER MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE COMPANY WITHIN 30 CALEDNAR DAYS OF YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS AND YOUR LETTER MUST SPECIFY: YOUR FULL LEGAL NAME, YOUR CURRENT RESIDENTIAL ADDRESS, THE EMAIL ADDRESS ASSOCIATED WTH YOUR USER ACCOUNT ON THE SERVICE, AND A STATEMENT THAT YOU WISH TO OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION (“OPT-OUT NOTICE”).

(b) Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 12(a), nothing in the Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law to compel or enforce arbitration; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

© Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and GainMed will be conducted under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by the Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org/consumer, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting GainMed. The arbitration will be before a single arbitrator selected pursuant to the AAA Rules. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, arbitrability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

(d) Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). GainMed’s address for Notice of Arbitration is identified in Section 15 below. The Notice of Arbitration must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties shall make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or GainMed may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing.

(e) Fees. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in New York, New York, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone or virtual hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the material 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.

(f) No Class Actions. YOU AND GAINMED 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, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and GainMed agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative, consolidated, or class proceeding.

(g) Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If GainMed makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to GainMed address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to GainMed’s address for Notice of Arbitration.

(h) Enforceability. If Section 12(f) is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 12 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 12 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 12(i) will govern any action arising out of or related to the Terms.

(i) The Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York without regard to conflict of law principles. You and GainMed submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within New York, New York for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms.

We respect others’ intellectual property rights and expect our users and customers to do the same. If you believe that your work has been copied on the Websites in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please contact us at marketing@gainmed.com. We reserve the right to terminate access to the Websites for users or customers who post material that infringes the intellectual property rights of others.

These Terms and any operating rules for the Websites established by us constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all previous written or oral agreements between the parties with respect to such subject matter. The provisions of these Terms are for the benefit of GainMed, its affiliates and its third party content providers and licensors and each shall have the right to assert and enforce such provisions directly or on its own behalf. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. If any part of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, it will be replaced with language reflecting the original purpose in a valid and enforceable manner. The enforceable sections of these Terms will remain binding upon the parties. The section headings used herein are for convenience only and shall not be given any legal import.
