11. Dispute Resolution & Binding Arbitration

⚠️ IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT AND TO HAVE DISPUTES HEARD BY A JUDGE OR JURY.

Agreement to Arbitrate. You and Recontastic mutually agree that any and all disputes, claims, or controversies arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, your use of the Service, any content or materials provided through the Service, or any aspect of your relationship with Recontastic (collectively, "Disputes") shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding individual arbitration, rather than in court. This includes claims that arose before the existence of this or any prior agreement between us, as well as claims that may arise after termination of these Terms. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement.

Arbitration Administrator & Selection. Any arbitration shall be administered by an arbitration organization or service provider selected at Recontastic's sole and absolute discretion. Recontastic reserves the exclusive right to select, designate, or change the arbitration forum, administrator, rules, procedures, and location at any time. If no specific selection is made, or if the selected administrator is unavailable, Recontastic shall appoint a qualified neutral arbitrator of its choosing. The arbitrator shall be bound by these Terms.

Waiver of Jury Trial. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. You understand that absent this provision, you would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. You acknowledge that the arbitrator's decision will be final and binding, with very limited rights of appeal.

CLASS ACTION AND COLLECTIVE RELIEF WAIVER. YOU AND RECONTASTIC AGREE THAT EACH PARTY MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, OR PARTICIPANT IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator shall have no authority to conduct any class, collective, or representative proceeding, and may not consolidate the claims of multiple parties. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration agreement shall be null and void, but all other provisions of these Terms shall remain in effect.

Arbitration Procedures & Confidentiality. All arbitration proceedings, including any hearings, discovery, submissions, and the arbitrator's decision, shall be strictly confidential. Neither party may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of the other party, except as required by law. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including threshold questions of arbitrability, the validity, scope, or enforceability of this arbitration agreement, and any defense to arbitration. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding, and judgment upon the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Limitation on Arbitrator's Authority. The arbitrator may award only individual relief and may not award relief that would affect other users. The arbitrator may not award punitive or exemplary damages unless expressly authorized by applicable law that cannot be waived. The arbitrator shall apply applicable substantive law and shall have no authority to disregard or refuse to enforce any lawful term of these Terms.

Costs and Fees. Each party shall bear its own costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees in connection with any arbitration proceeding, regardless of outcome, except as otherwise required by applicable law that cannot be waived. Filing fees and arbitrator compensation shall be allocated in accordance with the rules of the selected arbitration administrator, or as the arbitrator determines is appropriate.

Small Claims Exception. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court for disputes within the court's jurisdictional limits, provided that such action remains in small claims court and is not removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction.

Injunctive Relief. Nothing in this arbitration agreement shall prevent Recontastic from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect its intellectual property rights, confidential information, or to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration.

Opt-Out Right. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending a clear written statement of your decision to opt out within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. The opt-out notice must include your name, email address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of the arbitration agreement. If you opt out, you and Recontastic may litigate Disputes in court, subject to the other terms herein, but all other provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect.

Survival. This arbitration agreement shall survive the termination of these Terms, termination of your account, and your cessation of use of the Service.

12. General Provisions

Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Recontastic regarding the Service and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. If the class action waiver in Section 11 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of the arbitration agreement shall be null and void.

Waiver. No waiver of any term shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term. Recontastic's failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Governing Law. These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law, without regard to conflict of law principles. Subject to the arbitration agreement above, any legal action or proceeding not subject to arbitration shall be brought exclusively in the courts of a jurisdiction selected by Recontastic.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights or obligations hereunder without Recontastic's prior written consent. Recontastic may assign these Terms without restriction.

Contact. Questions regarding these Terms may be directed through the feedback mechanisms provided within the Service.
