Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Please read this Section 11 on Dispute Resolution and Arbitration carefully.  It is part of Your agreement with FastingQueens under these Terms and affects Your rights.  The following contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

  1. Governing Law.  The Terms of Use and the resolution of any “Dispute” shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws principles AND WILL SPECIFICALLY NOT BE GOVERNED BY THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS, IF OTHERWISE APPLICABLE.

  2. Time Limits.  Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to Your use of the Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be barred forever.

  3. Informal Dispute Resolution Required.  We want You to reach out to Us if You have any concerns or complaints rather than feeling like You need to initiate a formal legal case. Before filing a claim against FastingQueens , You agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by sending to support@fornextgen.com a written “Notice of Dispute” (“Notice”) describing the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, your phone number and formal mailing address, and the requested relief.  After We receive the Notice, We will try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting you through email or telephone.  If a Dispute is not resolved within ninety (90) days after the date We contact you informally, You or FastingQueens may bring a formal proceeding as permitted in this Section 11.  The amount of any settlement offer made by any party may not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator has determined the amount of the award, if any, to which either party is entitled.

  4. Arbitration Terms for U.S. and International Arbitration. 

    1. All “Arbitration Cases,” which means all claims and disputes (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief as set forth below) in connection with the Terms or the use of any product or service provided by FastingQueens that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis in accordance with Section 11.4(a). 

      1. U.S. Arbitration Rules.  If an Arbitration Case involves a User based or residing in the U.S. or use of the subject FastingQueens product or service occurred in the U.S., then arbitration shall be initiated through the “American Arbitration Association” (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this Section 11.  If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider.  The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms.

      2. International Arbitration Rules.  If an Arbitration Case involves a User based or residing outside of the U.S. or the use of the subject FastingQueens product or service occurred outside of the U.S., then arbitration shall be initiated through the “International Centre for Dispute Resolution” (“ICDR”), an established ADR Provider that offers arbitration as set forth in this Section 11.  If ICDR is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider.  The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of the arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms.

    2. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both parties, all arbitration proceedings shall be held in English.

    3. The arbitration requirements for all Arbitration Cases shall apply to You and FastingQueens, and to any subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, independent contractors, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.

    4. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator, unless the claim exceeds $100,000.00, in which case the arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three arbitrators.  All such arbitrators shall be or was an attorney and has professional experience in digital technology, fitness and nutrition and social media-related and fitness and nutrition related services and platforms.

    5. Within twenty (20) days after the commencement of arbitration, each party shall select the applicable number of persons to serve as arbitrator.  If the parties cannot mutually agree in good faith (and in writing) to the selection of the arbitrator(s) within this 20-day period, the AAA or ICDR (whichever applicable) shall, at the written request of any party, complete the appointments that have not been made.

    6. The Expedited Procedures under the AAA or ICDR (whichever applicable) shall apply in any Arbitration Case in which no disclosed claim or counterclaim exceeds $100,000.00, not including interest or reasonable attorney’s fees and arbitration costs.

    7. Any claims or disputes where the total amount of the award sought is less than ten thousand U.S. dollars (US $10,000.00) may be resolved, under the AAA or ICDR (whichever applicable), through binding non-appearance-based arbitration, at the option of the party seeking relief.  Accordingly, the arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or based solely on written submissions; the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration.  The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties.

    8. For Arbitration Cases with the total amount of the award sought is Ten Thousand U.S. Dollars (US $10,000.00) or more, the right to a hearing will be determined by the arbitration rules under the AAA or ICDR (whichever applicable).  Any hearing will be held in a location within 100 miles of Our principal place of business, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing.  If You reside outside of the U.S., the arbitrator shall give the parties reasonable notice of the date, time and place of any oral hearings and whether virtual appearance or attendance by either party is permitted.  Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction located within 100 miles of Our principal place of business.  Each party shall bear its own costs (including attorney’s fees) and disbursements arising out of the arbitration and shall pay an equal share of the fees and costs of the ADR Provider, unless the arbitrator determines Your claim is frivolous, then We will seek for You to cover Our attorney’s fees and all fees and costs of the ADR Provider.

    9. The award for an Arbitration Case shall be made within six (6) months of the filing of the notice of intention to arbitrate (demand), and the arbitrator(s) shall agree to comply with this schedule before accepting appointment.  This time limit, however, may be extended by the arbitrator(s) for good cause shown, or by mutual written agreement of the parties.

    10. Notwithstanding any language to the contrary in this Terms, the parties agree that: (1) the award (as described in Section 11.4(i)) may be appealed pursuant to the optional appellate arbitration rules under the AAA or ICDR, whichever applicable (“Appellate Rules”); (2) such award rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall, at a minimum, be a reasoned award; and (3) such award shall not be considered final until after the time for filing the notice of appeal pursuant to the Appellate Rules has expired.  Appeals must be initiated within thirty (30) days of receipt of an award, as defined by the Appellate Rules, by filing a “Notice of Appeal” with any AAA or ICDR office (whichever applicable).  Following the appeal process, the decision rendered by the appeal tribunal may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

    11. If arbitration is initiated in compliance with this Section 11.4, the arbitrator(s) will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of You and FastingQueens, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties.  The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim.  The arbitrator(s) shall have the authority to award monetary damages, and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the AAA or ICDR rules (whichever applicable), and the Terms.  The arbitrator(s) shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded.  The arbitrator(s) has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have.  The award of the arbitrator(s) is binding upon You and FastingQueens as specified in this Section 11.4.

    12. Confidentiality.  All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, including but not limited to the award of the arbitrator and compliance therewith, shall be strictly confidential.  The parties agree to maintain confidentiality unless otherwise required by law.

    13. Unless otherwise specified in these Terms, FastingQueens is not committed nor obligated to use an alternative dispute resolution entity to resolve disputes with its Users.

  5. Waiver of Jury Trial.  THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE THEIR CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Section 11 and the Terms.  Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in a court and are subject to very limited review by a court.  In the event any litigation should arise between You and FastingQueens in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND FASTINGQUEENS WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.

  6. Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions.  ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE USER (WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL OR AN ORGANIZATION) CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER USER (WHETHER AN INDIVIDUAL OR ORGANIZATION). 

  7. Equitable Relief.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, either party may seek emergency equitable relief before a state or federal court in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration.  A request for interim measures shall not be deemed a waiver of any other rights or obligations under this Section 11 or the Terms.

  8. Claims Not Subject to Arbitration.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, claims (including those related to injunctive relief) of defamation, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, and infringement or misappropriation of the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secrets (or any other intellectual property rights) or Your material breach of the Terms of Use pertaining to Your access to or use of the Services shall not be subject to these arbitration terms, so long as the claimant has complied with Section 11.2 (informal dispute requirement).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 11, either party may submit to a court of law to enforce an arbitration award, and FastingQueens may submit to a court of law to enforce these Terms or seek injunctive or equitable relief.

  9. Courts/Jurisdiction.  In any circumstances where the foregoing arbitration terms permit the parties to litigate in court, the parties irrevocably agree that jurisdiction and venue shall be that of the federal and state courts located within New York City and New York County of the State of New York, for such purpose, and You agree to accept service by delivery through first class mail.

  1. Electronic Communications.  The communications between You and FastingQueens use electronic means, whether You use the Services or send Us emails, or whether We post notices on the Services or communicate with You via email. For contractual purposes, You (a) consent to receive communications from Us in an electronic form; and (b) agree that all terms and conditions, agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications that We provide to You electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications would satisfy if it were be in a hardcopy writing. The foregoing does not affect Your non-waivable rights.

  2. General Terms.  These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between You and FastingQueens regarding the Services and the use and access thereof. These Terms supersede and replace any and all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between You and FastingQueens regarding all of Our Services.  Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision.  Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise.

    1. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect. The word “including” means “including without limitation.”

    2. If any provision of these Terms is, for any reason, held to be invalid or unenforceable, the other provisions of these Terms will be unimpaired (remaining in full force and effect), and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed modified so that it is valid and enforceable to the maximum extent permitted by law.  These Terms, and Your rights and obligations herein, may not be assigned, subcontracted, delegated, or otherwise transferred by You without Our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment, subcontract, delegation, or transfer in violation of the foregoing will be null and void.  We may freely assign these Terms.  The terms and conditions set forth in these Terms shall be binding upon Our successors or assignees.

    3. Force Majeure.  You agree that We are not responsible to You for anything that We may otherwise be responsible for, if it is the result of events beyond Our control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, war, insurrection, riots, terrorism, crime, pandemics, epidemics, labor shortages (including lawful and unlawful strikes), embargoes, postal disruption, communication disruption, failure or shortage of infrastructure, shortage of materials, or any other event beyond Our control (collectively, “Force Majeure”).  We reserve the right (in Our sole discretion) to terminate any or all Services to You or any of Our Users due to any Force Majeure event.

  3. Copyright and Other Intellectual Property Infringement Claims. We take the protection of Intellectual Property seriously.  We respect the rights of others’ content and Intellectual Property, and We expect Our Users to do the same. You agree not to copy, distribute, display or otherwise reproduce any of the Services or any information available through the Services without obtaining Our prior written permission in each such instance.  We reserve the right (in Our sole discretion) to terminate and/or disable the accounts of Yours and any Users for materially or repeatedly infringing the intellectual property rights of Ours, Our Suppliers and any other third parties in accordance with all applicable laws.  Claims of copyright or other intellectual property infringement can be sent to Our Copyright Agent at support@fornextgen.com.  

Any claims of alleged copyright or other intellectual property infringement must include:

 

  1. Identification of the intellectual property works which are the subject of the claimed infringement.

  2. Identification of the claimed infringing activity, including the location within the applicable Services of the infringing copy.

  3. A statement with the signature of the person making the claim, which states that he/she is the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the infringed intellectual property, along with current contact information, which should include a mailing address, telephone number, and email address.

  4. A statement of a good faith belief that the subject use is not authorized by the intellectual property owner.

  5. A statement as follows: “I hereby state that the information in this Notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that I am the owner, or authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of the intellectual property that is allegedly infringed.”

If a statement does not include all required elements, it will not be treated as actual notice under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512), or other applicable U.S. intellectual property law.

Although U.S. law does not provide for a similar procedure for trademark infringement, We recommend that You send Us similar information as described above in regards to any allegation of trademark infringement, and We will address it as soon as practicable.

In the event We receive a claim, which substantially complies with the complaint requirements detailed above, We will remove the alleged infringing material from Our Services, and notify You that the material has been removed. You may provide Us with a counter notice if You believe the claim is in error. If You are the subject of multiple claims, we may, in Our sole discretion, terminate Your account without further notice.
