- THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE IN THE STATE COURTS IN DENVER, COLORADO, OR FEDERAL COURT FOR THE STATE OF COLORADO; AND
- THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN CONNECTION WITH ANY DISPUTE. THIS WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IS GIVEN KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND INTENTIONALLY BY THE PARTIES, AND IS INTENDED TO ENCOMPASS EACH INSTANCE AND EACH ISSUE AS TO WHICH THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY WOULD OTHERWISE BE AVAILABLE. EACH PARTY IS HEREBY AUTHORIZED TO FILE A COPY OF THIS SECTION IN ANY PROCEEDING AS CONCLUSIVE EVIDENCE OF THIS WAIVER BY THE PARTIES. EACH PARTY ALSO COVENANTS NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE OTHER PARTY BASED UPON ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS PLATFORM AGREEMENT.

Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, any arbitration will take place in Denver, Colorado, and will be administered by, and pursuant to the commercial arbitration rules of, the American Arbitration Association, including any expedited procedures. There will be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or other Persons similarly situated. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law of the State of Colorado, exclusive of its conflict-of-law principles. The arbitrator’s authority to resolve any Dispute and to make awards is limited to Disputes between the parties alone. The authority to resolve any Dispute is subject to the limitations of liability set forth in this Platform Agreement. Any Dispute brought by either party against the other party may not be joined or consolidated in arbitration with Disputes brought by or against any third party, unless agreed to in writing by the Company and Moov. No arbitration award or decision on any Disputes will be given preclusive effect as to issues or claims in any dispute with any Person not a party to the arbitration. If any portion of this Section 14.3 is stricken from this Platform Agreement or deemed to be illegal, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, then this Section 14.3 will be stricken in its entirety from this Platform Agreement. The provisions of this Section 14.3 and all arbitration awards duly made in connection therewith may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction, and the party seeking enforcement will be entitled to an award of all costs, fees, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in obtaining the enforcement of this provision, to be paid by the party against whom enforcement is ordered. All arbitration awards duly made hereunder will not be subject to review or appeal except as permitted by Applicable Law. Notwithstanding any provision of any agreement between the parties to the contrary: (a) Moov or User may seek interim relief from a court located in Denver, Colorado, to protect such party’s rights or property while arbitration is pending, and (b) Moov may bypass the aforementioned arbitration process in cases of fraud or other crimes against Moov, interference with Moov’s technical operations, suspected criminal activity, or violations of Moov’s rights or property, including Moov’s Intellectual Property Rights.
15. Disclosures and Notices.
15.1. Consent to Electronic Disclosures, Notices, and Information.
- General. By establishing a Moov Account or by accessing and using the Moov Services, User hereby agrees that Moov may provide this Platform Agreement and all disclosures, notices, and other information arising out of or relating to this Platform Agreement, including any disclosures or notices required to be provided as a matter of Applicable Law (collectively, “Notices”), through electronic methods, including by emailing this Platform Agreement and Notices to User’s designated email address, by posting this Platform Agreement and Notices on Moov’s website, or by providing this Platform Agreement and Notices through User’s Moov Account or otherwise through the Moov Services. User acknowledges and agrees that this Platform Agreement and any Notice provided by electronic methods will be effective within 24 hours following the provision of the same by Moov or such other period as may be specified by Moov therein and will have the same effect as if Moov had provided User with paper copies of this Platform Agreement or such Notices. User further acknowledges and agrees that User’s electronic acceptance of or consent to this Platform Agreement and any Notices (if applicable) provided electronically will have the same legal effect as a physical signature. If User has any issues viewing or accessing this Platform Agreement or any Notices, then User will contact Moov at [email protected]. If User wishes to withdraw User’s consent to receive this Platform Agreement and Notices through electronic methods, then User will contact Moov at [email protected]. Due to the nature of the Moov Services, User will not be able to use the Moov Services if User withdraws its consent to receive this Platform Agreement and all Notices electronically.
- Electronic Delivery of IRS Forms. User may consent to receive copies of all applicable tax-related documents, including any Form 1099 (e.g., Form 1099-K) and Form 1042-S (each, an “IRS Form”), electronically from Moov by choosing the “YES, I CONSENT TO ELECTRONIC DELIVERY” checkbox substantially in the form of the “Consent to Electronic Delivery of IRS Forms” made available to User by Moov. If User does not consent to receive IRS Forms electronically or subsequently withdraws its consent to receive IRS Forms electronically, then after the effective date of User’s failure to consent or withdrawal of consent, a paper copy of IRS Forms required to be delivered to User will be sent to User at no cost to the address associated with User’s Moov Account, provided, that Moov may charge User a fee for any additional or replacement copies of such IRS Forms. IRS Forms provided electronically by Moov will be accessible to User until at least October 15 of the year in which such IRS Forms are made available to User; after that time, the IRS Forms may no longer be accessible electronically. Moov may discontinue the electronic provision of IRS Forms at any time.
15.2. Text Message. User hereby authorizes Moov to provide Notices to User via text message, including as may be necessary or appropriate to verify User’s or its representative’s control over User’s Moov Account (e.g., two-step verification) and to provide User with other critical information about User’s Moov Account. Standard text or data charges may apply to any Notices provided via text message. Where offered, User may disable text message notifications by responding to any such message with “STOP” or by following instructions provided in the text message. However, by disabling text messaging, User may be deactivating important security features associated with User’s Moov Account, which may increase the risk of loss to User. User will need a computer or mobile device, internet connectivity, and an updated browser to access and review Notices.
15.3. Wireless Service Providers. User acknowledges and agrees that Moov may communicate with User or User’s representative via SMS messages transmitted by wireless service providers (e.g., AT&T, Sprint, Verizon, etc.).

Any waiver must be in a writing signed by Moov.
16.8. Severability. If any provision of this Platform Agreement is determined by any Governmental Authority to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, such provision will be changed and interpreted to accomplish the objectives of such provision to the greatest extent possible under Applicable Law and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
