11. Dispute Resolution

This section governs any dispute, claim, or controversy arising under or relating to these Terms, the Site, our publications, or any related communications or interactions between you and Sub-Etha Press (each, a “Dispute”), regardless of whether the Dispute sounds in contract, tort, statute, or any other legal theory.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES BINDING ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF.

11.1 Pre-Dispute Notice Requirements

Before initiating any formal dispute resolution process under this section, the party asserting the Dispute (“Claimant”) shall send the other party (“Respondent”) a detailed written notice by email to legal@subethapress.com (if you are the Claimant) or to the email address associated with your newsletter subscription or most recent communication with us (if we are the Claimant), with delivery confirmation. The notice shall include all of the following:

(a) Claimant’s full legal name and current postal address;
(b) all email addresses Claimant has used in connection with the Site;
(c) the specific date or dates on which Claimant accessed the Site that form the basis of the Dispute;
(d) the specific URL or URLs accessed;
(e) the approximate timestamps of the access;
(f) the device type, operating system, and browser used;
(g) the IP address or addresses used to access the Site, if known to Claimant;
(h) a factual basis for Claimant’s standing to bring the Dispute;
(i) a specific description of the conduct alleged and the harm alleged;
(j) the legal theory or theories on which the Dispute is based;
(k) the nature of Claimant’s fee arrangement with counsel, if any, including whether the representation is on a contingency, fee-sharing, referral, or hourly basis, the rate or percentage applicable, and the identity of any third party providing funding or financing in connection with the Dispute; and
(l) a list of all claims, demands, formal complaints, or arbitration proceedings filed by Claimant or Claimant’s counsel within the 24 months preceding the notice that assert substantively similar legal theories or arise from substantively similar conduct, including the names of respondents and the disposition of each.

A notice that omits any of the foregoing is procedurally deficient. The dispute resolution timelines under this section shall not commence until a compliant notice is received. The disclosures required by subparts (k) and (l) are intended to enable good-faith assessment of the Dispute and to enable any arbitrator to screen for fraud, abuse, or improper purpose.

11.2 Informal Resolution Period

Within 60 days of Respondent’s receipt of a compliant notice under Section 11.1, the parties shall engage in informal resolution discussions. Such discussions shall include not fewer than two principal-level meetings, each attended by a principal of Claimant (or Claimant personally, if an individual) and a principal of Respondent. Meetings may be conducted by video conference. Claimant may be accompanied by counsel or an authorized representative. Failure of Claimant to participate in good faith in the required meetings is a material procedural defect, and no arbitration may be commenced unless and until the requirement is satisfied or expressly waived in writing by Respondent.

11.3 Binding Arbitration

Any Dispute that is not resolved through the process described in Sections 11.1 and 11.2 shall be resolved exclusively by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its then-current Consumer Arbitration Rules. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator. Venue for any in-person component shall be Sheridan County, Wyoming; video proceedings shall be permitted at the election of either party.

11.4 Pre-Merits Good-Faith Review

As a threshold matter and prior to merits adjudication, the arbitrator is authorized to consider whether the Dispute was brought in good faith or bears indicia of fraud, abuse, or improper purpose. In conducting such review, the arbitrator may consider the disclosures provided pursuant to Section 11.1, the conduct of the parties during the informal resolution process, the existence of substantively similar claims previously filed by Claimant or Claimant’s counsel, and any other information relevant to good faith. If the arbitrator finds, by a preponderance of the evidence, that the Dispute was brought in bad faith or for improper purpose, the arbitrator may dismiss the Dispute and may award reasonable fees and costs to Respondent, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. This section is intended to enable fraud screening and shall not be construed to limit any party’s ability to assert a good-faith Dispute on the merits.

11.5 Class-Action Waiver

Each party may bring claims against the other only in such party’s individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one party’s claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If any portion of this class-action waiver is found to be unenforceable as to a particular Dispute, that Dispute shall proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction (subject to all other terms of these Terms), and the arbitration agreement shall be null and void as to that Dispute only. The class-action waiver in this section is non-severable from the arbitration agreement.

11.6 Carve-Outs from Arbitration

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction in Wyoming for: (a) injunctive or other equitable relief to prevent or stop infringement, misappropriation, or unauthorized use of intellectual property; or (b) any other claim that, as a matter of law, may not be subject to pre-dispute arbitration.

11.7 Costs and Fees

Each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs except as otherwise provided in these Terms or required by applicable law. Allocation of arbitration fees shall comply with the consumer-protection floors imposed by AAA’s consumer rules.

12. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any Dispute that is not subject to arbitration under Section 11, or that escapes the arbitration agreement for any reason, shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Sheridan County, Wyoming. You consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.

13. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity shall not affect the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the non-severability of the class-action waiver from the arbitration agreement as set forth in Section 11.5. Where any provision is held unenforceable in part, the provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.

14. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Sub-Etha Press regarding the Site and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.

15. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms at any time by posting the revised version on this page with an updated “Last updated” date. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
