‍

SECTION 20: DISPUTE RESOLUTION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE A JURY HEAR YOUR CLAIMS. IT CONTAINS PROCEDURES FOR MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Agreement to Arbitrate‍

You and Meow Wolf agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the Services (“Disputes”) will be settled by binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right: (i) to bring an individual action in small claims court (a “Small Claims Action”) and (ii) to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights (an “IP Protection Action”). The exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any IP Protection Action will be the state and federal courts located in the District of New Mexico and Meow Wolf, and you waive any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts and consent to their jurisdiction. You agree that you may bring arbitration claims only on your behalf and not on behalf of any other person or entity.

Unless you timely provide us with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice (as defined below in the subsection titled “Your Choices”), you acknowledge and agree that you and Meow Wolf are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class action or representative proceeding. Further, unless you and Meow Wolf agree in writing, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of any class or representative proceeding.  

This clause does not limit either party’s ability to file an action in a court with jurisdiction to seek injunctive or other equitable relief for disputes relating to intellectual property or proprietary data or to enforce this dispute resolution clause, including your agreement not to assert claims related to the suspension or termination of another person’s account. In any such action, the court, rather than an arbitrator, must decide whether such a claim is arbitrable and must determine whether the party is entitled to the requested injunctive or other equitable relief.‍

Arbitration Rules‍

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this Section 20. (The AAA Rules are available at https://www.adr.org/mediation or by calling the AAA at 1–800–778–7879.) The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Section.‍

Arbitration Process‍

A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written Demand for Arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. (The AAA provides a form of Demand for Arbitration.) The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the Demand for Arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.‍

Arbitration Location and Procedure‍

Unless you and Meow Wolf otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the state where you reside, with the option for you to participate telephonically to the extent the AAA Rules allow. If your claim does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely based on the documents you and Meow Wolf submit to the arbitrator unless you request a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000, the AAA Rules will determine your right to a hearing. Subject to the AAA Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration.‍

Arbitrator’s Decision‍

The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions on which the arbitrator based its award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the arbitration award. The arbitrator’s award of damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” subsection of these Terms as to the types and amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the claimant and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the claimant’s individual claim. If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law. Meow Wolf will not seek and hereby waives all rights it may have under applicable law to recover attorneys’ fees and expenses if it prevails in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds such arbitration to be frivolous under the standards of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 11(b) and in that case, Meow Wolf shall be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees and expenses in addition to any damages awarded to it.‍

Fees‍

If the arbitrator finds that your payment of the administrative and arbitrator fees (excluding any attorney’s fees) under this subsection burdens you, we agree to pay those fees for you (but not any attorney’s fees).‍

Changes‍

By rejecting any changes to these Terms, you agree that you will arbitrate any Dispute between you and Meow Wolf in accordance with the provisions of this Section 20 as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).‍

Your Choices‍

If you do not want to settle Disputes by arbitration as described above, you will notify us by sending us written notice (including by email to [email protected]) telling us that you don’t want to use arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date on which you agreed to these Terms (such notice, an “Arbitration Opt-out Notice”). If you don’t provide us with an Arbitration Opt-out Notice within thirty (30) days, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any dispute except for a Small Claims Action and an IP Protection Action as stated above.‍

Investigations‍

We reserve the right to investigate and prosecute any suspected breaches of these Terms or the Services.  We may disclose any information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.‍

‍

SECTION 21: WAIVER OF INJUNCTIVE OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN AN INJUNCTION OR OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND, SUCH AS ANY COURT OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF ANY WEBSITE, APPLICATION, CONTENT, SUBMISSIONS, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED OR CONTROLLED BY MEOW WOLF OR A LICENSOR OF MEOW WOLF.

‍

SECTION 23: SEVERABILITY‍

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms, such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.‍

‍

SECTION 24: ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Services or in respect to the Services constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and govern your use of the Services, superseding any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications, and proposals, whether oral or written, between you and us (including, but not limited to, any prior versions of these Terms).

The failure of Meow Wolf to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.‍

‍

SECTION 25: ASSIGNMENT‍

Without our prior written consent, you may not assign, transfer, charge, or sub-contract all or any of your rights or obligations under these Terms, and any attempt to do so without that consent will be null and void.

We may at any time assign, transfer, charge, or sub-contract all or any of its rights or obligations under these Terms.‍
