8. TERMINATION; SURVIVAL.

8.1 Term. These Terms are effective unless and until terminated by you or us at any time. If you wish to terminate these Terms with us, please contact us by email using the Contact Us link.

8.2 Modifications. We may, in our sole and absolute discretion and without any liability, modify, suspend or discontinue any aspect of the Site, temporarily or permanently, at any time and without prior notice.

Any modifications will be effective ten (10) days following posting on the Site or delivery of such notice through the Site, except in the case of a legally required modification which will be effective upon posting. You will be deemed to have agreed to any and all modifications through your continued use of the Site and/or Services following such notice period.

Such fees or charges shall be due and payable within five (5) days from the date of termination. The following provisions will survive termination: 2 through 10.

9. DISPUTES. You and Foundation agree that any claim or controversy that arises between us relating in any way to any breach, enforcement, or termination of the Terms or your use of or access to the Site or Service (each a “Covered Matter” and collectively, “Covered Matters”), will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Section 9.

9.1 Informal Resolution. If you have any dispute with Foundation, you and Foundation agree that any formal action, you will contact at us legal@thejaysontaytumfoundation.org, provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including the email address associated with your account, if your dispute relates to an account), and allow ninety (90) days to pass, during which Foundation will attempt to reach an amicable resolution of any issue with you.

9.2 Applicable Law. You and Foundation agree that United States federal law including the Federal Arbitration Act, and (to the extent not inconsistent with or pre-empted by federal law) the laws of the State of Missouri, USA, without regard to conflict of laws principles, will govern all Covered Matters. Such body of law will apply regardless of your residence or the location of where you use the Foundation Services.

9.3 Agreement to Arbitrate Disputes. You and Foundation agree that these Terms and each of its parts evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act applies in all cases and governs the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration rules and arbitration proceedings. Any Covered Matter must be asserted individually in binding arbitration administered by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) in accordance with JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (including, without limitation, utilizing desk, phone, or video conference proceedings where appropriate and permitted to mitigate costs of travel) and the JAMS Policy on Consumer Arbitrations Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness (which will prevail over any inconsistent terms in this Section 9). The arbitrator shall not conduct any form of class or collective arbitration nor join or consolidate claims by or for individuals. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable or a particular claim is subject to arbitration. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

9.4 Exceptions To Our Agreement To Arbitrate Disputes. There are only two exceptions to this agreement to arbitrate:

• First, if either party reasonably believes that the other party has in any manner violated or threatened to infringe the intellectual property rights of the other party, the party whose rights have been violated may seek injunctive or other appropriate interim relief in any court of competent jurisdiction.

• Second, each party will retain the right to seek relief in a small claims court within the United States for disputes or claims brought on an individual basis within the scope of the jurisdiction of such courts.

9.5 Who Bears the Costs of Arbitration. You and Foundation agree that payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS’s rules, unless otherwise stated in this agreement to arbitrate. If the value of the relief sought is $5,000 or less, at your written request, Foundation will reimburse you for the filing, administration, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration following the earlier of the arbitrator’s decision or settlement, provided that you make your request no more than thirty (30) days following the earlier of such decision or settlement. In the event the arbitrator determines the claim(s) you assert in the arbitration to be frivolous or without merit, you agree that Foundation is relieved of its obligation to reimburse you for any fees associated with the arbitration.

9.6 Future Amendments to the Agreement to Arbitrate. Notwithstanding any provision in the Terms to the contrary, you and Foundation agree that if Foundation makes any amendment to the agreement to arbitrate under this Section in the future that amendment shall not apply to any claim that was filed in a legal proceeding against Foundation prior to the effective date of the amendment. However, the amendment shall apply to all other disputes or claims governed by the agreement to arbitrate that have arisen or may arise between you and Foundation. If you do not agree to these amended terms, you may close your account within thirty (30) days of the posting or notification of such amended terms and you will not be bound by the amended terms.

9.7 Judicial Forum for Legal Disputes. Unless you and we agree otherwise, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate above is found not to apply to you or to a particular claim or dispute, either as a result of your decision to opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, as a result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order or because you have chosen to file an eligible lawsuit in small claims court, you agree that any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and the Foundation must be resolved exclusively by a state, federal, or small claims court located in St. Louis, Missouri. You and the Foundation agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the courts located within St. Louis, Missouri for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.

9.8 YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF ARBITRATION. IF YOU ARE A NEW FOUNDATION USER, YOU CAN CHOOSE TO REJECT THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE PROVISION (“OPT-OUT”) BY EMAILING US AN OPT-OUT NOTICE TO ARBITRATIONOPTOUT@THEJAYSONTAYTUMFOUNDATION.ORG (“OPT-OUT NOTICE”) OR REGULAR MAIL TO: P.O. Box 300061, St. Louis, MO, 63130, Attention: Constantino Ochoa Jr. THE OPT-OUT NOTICE MUST BE RECEIVED NO LATER THAN THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE DATE YOU ACCEPT THE TERMS OF USE FOR THE FIRST TIME. IF YOU ARE NOT A NEW USER, YOU HAVE UNTIL THIRTY (30) DAYS AFTER THE POSTING OF THE NEW TERMS TO SUBMIT AN ARBITRATION OPT-OUT NOTICE.

9.9 Arbitration Opt-Out Procedure. In order to opt-out, you must email your name, address (including your street address, city, state, and zip code), email address(es) associated with your account(s) to which the opt-out applies, and an unaltered digital image of your valid driver’s license to: arbitrationoptout@thejaysontaytumfoundation.org. This procedure is the only way you can opt out of the agreement to arbitrate in this Section. If you opt out of the agreement to arbitrate, all other parts of the Terms and this Section will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this agreement to arbitrate has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with Foundation.

9.10 YOU WAIVE CERTAIN RIGHTS. BY AGREEING TO THE TERMS, YOU HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT YOU MAY HAVE (i) TO A COURT TRIAL (OTHER THAN SMALL CLAIMS COURT AS PROVIDED ABOVE); (ii) TO SERVE AS A REPRESENTATIVE, AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR IN ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR TO PARTICIPATE AS A MEMBER OF A CLASS OF CLAIMANTS, IN ANY LAWSUIT, ARBITRATION OR OTHER PROCEEDING FILED AGAINST US AND/OR RELATED THIRD PARTIES; AND (iii) TO A TRIAL BY JURY EVEN IF ANY ARBITRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE TERMS.

10. GENERAL TERMS.
10.1 Force Majeure. Under no circumstances shall Foundation or its licensor or supplier be held liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting directly or indirectly from an event beyond its reasonable control.

10.2 No Waiver; Severability. No waiver of any term of these Terms will be binding unless in writing, no waiver of any term of these Terms will be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term, and the failure of Foundation to exercise or enforce any right or remedy in these Terms does not waive that right or remedy. If an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms to be invalid, the parties agree that the court should endeavor to give effect, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.

10.3 Miscellaneous. These Terms (and all policies, terms, and conditions referenced herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and Foundation and govern your use of TheJaysonTatumFoundation.org Site and Services provided by Foundation and supersede any prior agreements between you and Foundation on the subject matter. You also may be subject to additional terms that may apply when you use certain Foundation services or third-party content, links, or websites. These Terms, and any rights or licenses granted hereunder, may not be assigned or delegated by you. These Terms, and any rights or licenses granted hereunder, may be assigned or delegated by Foundation without restriction. These Terms bind and inure to the benefit of each party and the party’s successors and permitted assigns. These Terms may not be modified by an oral statement by a representative of Foundation. A party’s failure or delay in exercising any right, power, or privilege under these Terms will not waive its rights to exercise such right, power, or privilege in the future, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, power, or privilege preclude any other or further exercise of such right, power, or privilege, or the exercise of any other right, power, or privilege under these Terms. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employee-employer relationship is intended or created by these Terms. You agree to comply with all applicable laws in your use of the Site and Services.
