Dispute resolution; class action waiver
1. Your agreement to arbitrate your claims. You should carefully review this section 16. To the extent permitted by applicable law, you acknowledge and agree to give up your right to go to court to assert or defend your rights except for matters that you file in small claims court in the state or municipality of your residence within the jurisdictional limits of the small claims court and as long as such matter is only pending in that court. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator and not a judge or jury. You are entitled to a fair hearing but the arbitration procedures may be simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court. An arbitrator’s decision is as enforceable as any court order and is subject to a very limited review by a court. You expressly agree to this section 16 as a condition of accessing or using the service, any of our platforms, or any content.
2. Informal dispute procedures. For any dispute you have with amauta or concerning these terms, you agree to first contact us at support@amautafinancial.com and to attempt to resolve such dispute informally.
3. Arbitration. In the unlikely event that we are unable to resolve any dispute you bring to our attention after sixty (60) days, and for any other dispute we raise, you and amauta agree that, except where prohibited by law, all disputes shall be resolved individually and exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by jams, and conducted before a single arbitrator, all pursuant to the jams comprehensive arbitration rules and procedures that are in effect at the time arbitration is initiated (the “jams rules”). For more information on jams, the jams rules, or the process for filing an arbitration claim, you may call jams at 800.352.5267 or visit the jams website at www.jamsadr.com.
4. No class actions or class wide relief. You and amauta invest agree to the following with respect to the arbitration of any dispute hereunder: (a) any claim must be brought in your individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding; (b) the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding and may not award class-wide relief; (c) the arbitration will be held at a location in your hometown area unless you and we both agree to another location or telephonic arbitration; (d) in the event that you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, we will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (e) we reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to assume responsibility for any or all of the costs of the arbitration; (f) the arbitrator will honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law; (g) the arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by applicable law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (h) the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are expressly permitted by applicable law; and (i) each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses, unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses and the arbitrator awards such attorneys’ fees and expenses to the prevailing party, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded will be determined by the applicable law. Any right to a trial by jury, whether on an individual or a class basis, is hereby waived.
5. Survival. This section 16 will survive termination of these terms or your right to access or use the service or any of our platforms. With the exception of the subpart prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the jams rules, then the balance of this provision will remain in effect and will be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal, or conflicting part was not contained herein. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the dispute will be exclusively brought in federal court if it has jurisdiction or, if it does not, in a state court located in the federal judicial district of your residence.

Notices to you by amauta may be made via any of the following methods: in-app messaging through our mobile app, email (from support@amautafinancial.com), or regular mail.

6. Severability. If any term or provision of these terms is declared unlawful, void, or unenforceable for any reason by any court or arbitrator in any jurisdiction, then such term or provision will be deemed severable from the remaining terms or provisions in such jurisdiction and will not affect the validity and enforceability of such remaining terms or provisions in these terms.
