XIII. ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION: ARBITRATION AND/OR MEDIATION

You agree to utilize alternative dispute resolution in all disputes that may arise with Able Artist Foundation.

This agreement is intended to be interpreted broadly and includes, but is not limited to:

  1. Claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and Able Artist, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory;
  2. Claims that may have arisen prior to the adoption of these Terms and Conditions of Use and Service;
  3. Claims that are the subject of purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class;
  4. Any claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms and Conditions of Use and Service.

This agreement for alternative dispute resolution includes Able Artist Foundation’s and your respective subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns. It also encompasses all users, whether authorized or unauthorized, of Able Artist Foundation’s services under these or any prior Terms and Conditions of Use and Service.

Opt-Out: Notwithstanding the above agreement, you may choose to pursue a claim in court,

rather than via alternative dispute resolution, if you opt-out of these procedures within thirty- days from the date when you first accept these terms (as defined above). In order to opt-out,

you must contact Able Artist Foundation via the Able Artist Foundation Contact Us page to request an opt-out form. Any opt-out request received after the passage of the thirty-day deadline shall not be valid and any claims must be pursued using alternative dispute resolution.

XIV. NOTICE OF DISPUTES

For any disputes or claims against Able Artist Foundation, whether pursued in court or through alternative dispute resolution, you must first provide Able Artist Foundation an opportunity to resolve the issue.

To do so you must send a written “Notice of Dispute” to Able Artist Foundation at:

If you have any questions or suggestions about the Able Artist Foundation Privacy Policy, you may submit them via our Contact Us page, by mail at:

19 S 1st St #B1106
Minneapolis, MN 55401
United States

The notice must:

  1. Describe the nature and basis of the dispute or claim; and
  2. Set forth the specific relief sought.

Able Artist Foundation has thirty-days after the receipt of the notice to contact you in an effort to reach a resolution of the issue. If an agreement cannot be reached, either party may commence alternative dispute resolution proceedings. The arbitrator of these disputes is bound by the terms outlined in this entire Agreement and all other terms otherwise expressly incorporated herein. The arbitrator alone shall have exclusive authority to resolve any disputes that may arise regarding the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement, to include any assertion that any part of this Agreement is void or voidable.

For any claims for which you provided notice and negotiated in good faith as described above, if the arbitrator finds you to be the prevailing party, you may be entitled to recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs.

Unless otherwise agreed upon by the parties, any alternative dispute resolution proceedings shall take place in Minneapolis, Hennepin County, Minnesota.

XV. JURY TRIAL WAIVER

If the action proceeds to court rather than through alternative dispute resolution, both parties waive any right to a jury trial.

XVI. GOVERNING LAW; JURISDICTION

This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

XVII. FORCE MAJEURE

Able Artist Foundation shall not be deemed responsible for delays or failure to perform services resulting from acts that are beyond its control, including but not limited to: acts of God, e.g. fire, flood, or

earthquake; war; riot; actual or threatened acts of terrorism; labor stoppages; governmental actions; or utility failures.

XVIII. THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS

This Agreement is for your sole benefit and the benefit of Able Artist Foundation and its assigns. It shall not provide benefit for any other person, either as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise.

XIX. ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign, transfer, sub-contract or delegate the rights and/or duties provided for by this Agreement without the prior express, written consent of Able Artist Foundation. Able Artist Foundation may assign, transfer, subcontract, or delegate any of its rights and/or duties provided for by this Agreement without notifying your or obtaining your consent.

XX. SEVERABILITY

If any part of this Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to any applicable law(s), the unenforceability of that provision shall not affect the enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement. The parties agree that the court or arbitrator shall attempt to give full effect to the intentions of the parties as evidenced by the unenforceable provision in the context of the entire Agreement.

XXI. WAIVER

The failure of either party to insist upon or enforce strict performance by the other party of any provision of this Agreement, or to exercise any right under this Agreement, shall not be construed as a waiver of the right of such party to assert or rely on such provision.

XXII. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

This Agreement, any provisions specifically incorporated herein and your registration form constitutes the entire agreement between the parties.
