11. Dispute Resolution and Mandatory Arbitration

Please Read Carefully: This section requires you to resolve disputes with Dockitly through binding individual arbitration rather than court litigation or class action proceedings.

Mandatory Arbitration. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, your use of the Site, or any services provided by Dockitly Corp, including questions of arbitrability, shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, except as modified herein.

Waiver of Class Actions. ALL DISPUTES MUST BE BROUGHT IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of class or representative proceeding.

Arbitration Location and Procedure. Arbitration shall be conducted in New York, New York, or virtually if agreed upon by both parties. Each party shall bear its own costs and attorneys' fees, except as otherwise required by the AAA rules or applicable law.

Opt-Out Right. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to support@dockitly.co within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms. Your notice must include your name, address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration.

Small Claims Exception. Either party may bring an individual action in small claims court for disputes within the jurisdictional limit of such court, provided the matter remains in small claims court and is not removed or appealed to a court of general jurisdiction.

12. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of law principles. To the extent any dispute is not subject to arbitration, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in New York County, New York.

Dockitly Corp reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Changes become effective upon posting to this page with an updated effective date.
