this Agreement or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
- Legal Compliance
You shall comply with all applicable domestic and international laws, statutes,
ordinances and regulations regarding your use of our service and your purchase
of items.
- No Agency
AGORAjunction and the merchant advertising and selling products through this site are independent
contractors, and no agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or
franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.
- Resolution of Disputes
In the event a dispute arises between you and AGORAjunction, our goal is to
provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute
quickly. Accordingly, you and AGORAjunction agree that any claim or controversy
at law or equity that arises out of this Agreement or our services (“Claims”)
shall be resolved in accordance with one of the subsections below or as
otherwise mutually agreed upon in writing by the parties. Before resorting to
these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to
seek a resolution and we will consider reasonable requests to resolve the
dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation,
as an alternative to litigation.
- Binding Arbitration
For any Claim (excluding Claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) where the
total amount of the award sought is less than $10,000, you or AGORAjunction may
elect to resolve the dispute through binding arbitration conducted by
telephone, on-line and/or based solely upon written submissions where no
in-person appearance is required. In such cases, the arbitration shall be
administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with their
applicable rules, or any other established ADR provider mutually agreed upon by
the parties. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be
entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. Should either party file an action contrary
to this Agreement, the other party may recover attorneys' fees and costs in
defending such action, provided that the party seeking the award has notified
the other party in writing of the improperly filed Claim, and the other party
has failed to withdraw the Claim.
- Jurisdiction
In the event any legal proceeding is brought by either party, for any reason, in a
Court of law, you and AGORAjunction agree to submit to the personal
jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within Marion County, Indianapolis, Indiana. All forms of Alternative
Dispute Resolution shall be heard and resolved in Indianapolis, Indiana or, if no such site exists, the nearest site in
proximity to Indianapolis, Indiana available through the chosen ADR provider.
- General
This Agreement represents the complete agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior agreements
and representations between them. If any
provision of this Agreement is held to be unenforceable for any reason, such
provision shall be reformed only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable
and the other terms of this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect. The failure of AGORAjunction to
act with respect to a breach of this Agreement by you or others does not
constitute a waiver and shall not limit AGORAjunction rights with respect to
such breach or any subsequent breaches. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed under Indiana law as such law applies to agreements between Indiana residents entered into and to be
performed within Indiana.
