In no event shall SwigLab's total liability to you for any claim arising out of or relating to your use of the platform exceed the total amount paid by you for the specific product or service in question. Nothing in this section shall exclude or limit liability for any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including liability for our fraud, willful misconduct, or gross negligence. Your sole and exclusive remedy for dissatisfaction with the platform or any products purchased through it is to stop using the platform and seek remedies, if any, directly with the applicable Seller.

 

  1. INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless MP Labs LLC, its affiliates, owners, directors, employees, agents, licensors, service providers, and representatives from and against any and all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, expenses, or demands (including but not limited to reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use or misuse of the platform, your violation of these Terms, your breach of any representation or warranty, your violation of any applicable law or regulation, or your infringement or misappropriation of any intellectual property, privacy, or other rights of any third party.

19.   DISPUTE RESOLUTION, ARBITRATION, AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

You and SwigLab agree that these Terms of Service involve interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law govern any dispute resolution proceedings arising from these Terms. This section constitutes a written agreement to arbitrate under the Federal Arbitration Act, and both parties acknowledge that it meets the “writing” requirement of the Act. To the extent that federal arbitration law does not supply the necessary substantive law for resolving disputes, the laws of the State of California shall apply. If any portion of a dispute requires court involvement, such as seeking injunctive relief or enforcing an arbitration award, the laws of the State of California shall govern.

 

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT, PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, OR HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.

 

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and SwigLab agree that any disputes, claims, or controversies arising from or relating to your use of the platform, including product purchases, website interactions, and any other related transactions, shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration. However, this agreement does not prevent either party from seeking injunctive relief in court to protect intellectual property rights, such as copyrights, trademarks, patents, and trade secrets.

 

Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution

SwigLab strives to provide excellent service, but if you have a dispute or concern, you agree to give us an opportunity to resolve it informally before pursuing legal action. You must first submit a written notice (a “Demand”) detailing the dispute, including the date it arose, relevant facts, and supporting documentation. The Demand must include your full name, contact information, and a personally signed statement describing the issue. The Demand should be sent to:

 

MP Labs LLC

Attn: Legal Department

Los Altos, CA 94024

Email: mpunjabi@gmail.com

 

SwigLab will respond within twenty (20) business days and may propose an informal resolution discussion via phone or video call. Both parties must make a good-faith effort to resolve the issue before arbitration can be pursued. If no resolution is reached within twenty (20) business days after the resolution meeting (or if no meeting is requested), you may proceed with arbitration. The parties agree to toll any applicable limitations period while engaging in this informal resolution process.

 

Arbitration Process

If the dispute is not resolved informally, you agree to submit it to binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Arbitration will take place in the county where you reside or remotely via video or phone conference if both parties agree. The arbitrator will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, enforceability, or scope of these Terms.

 

You and SwigLab agree to bear your own arbitration-related costs and expenses, including legal representation and witness fees. The arbitrator may award damages and relief only on an individual basis and in accordance with applicable law. Judgment on the arbitrator's decision may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

Class Action Waiver

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you agree that disputes with SwigLab must be brought on an individual basis only, and not as part of any class action, representative action, or collective proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate multiple claims or preside over any class-based proceedings. Any relief granted will apply solely to the individual party involved and cannot impact other users. If the class action waiver is found unenforceable, the arbitration agreement shall be null and void, and disputes must be resolved in court.

 

Waiver of Jury Trial

By agreeing to arbitration, you and SwigLab waive the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge for any claims arising under these Terms.

 

Exceptions to Arbitration

Notwithstanding the arbitration agreement, either party may seek relief in small claims court for qualifying disputes. Additionally, disputes related to intellectual property rights may be brought directly to court without first proceeding through arbitration.

 

Opt-Out Option

You may opt out of the arbitration agreement by sending a personally signed written notice within thirty (30) days of accepting these Terms to:

 

MP Labs LLC

Attn: Legal Department

Los Altos, CA 94024

Email: mpunjabi@gmail.com

 

Your opt-out notice must include your full name, address, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. Opting out does not affect any other provisions of these Terms.

 

Confidentiality of Arbitration

All arbitration proceedings, including related documents and communications, shall remain confidential and may not be disclosed to third parties, except as required by law or to enforce an arbitration award.

 

Modification of Arbitration Agreement

SwigLab reserves the right to update this arbitration agreement. However, changes will not apply to claims filed prior to the effective date of the update.

 

By using SwigLab’s services, you acknowledge and agree to the terms outlined in this section. If you do not agree, you should not use our platform.

  1. DISPUTES AMONGST BUYERS AND SELLERS

a)     Vendor Responsibility: SwigLab acts solely as an intermediary connecting Buyers with independent Vendors who are responsible for fulfilling orders and ensuring product quality and compliance with applicable laws. Buyers acknowledge that Vendors are solely responsible for handling disputes related to order fulfillment, product defects, shipment delays, returns, and any other issues arising from the purchase of products. SwigLab does not assume liability for Vendor actions, omissions, or failure to meet expectations but will assist in facilitating communication between Buyers and Vendors to achieve a fair resolution.

b)     Resolution Process: If a dispute arises between a Buyer and a Vendor regarding an order, the Buyer must first attempt to resolve the issue directly with the Vendor using the communication channels provided on the platform. Buyers are encouraged to provide sufficient details, including order numbers, product details, and any supporting evidence, to enable the Vendor to assess and resolve the matter effectively. If the Vendor does not respond within a reasonable timeframe or the dispute remains unresolved, Buyers may escalate the issue to SwigLab for mediation. SwigLab will review the dispute, communicate with both parties, and attempt to facilitate a mutually agreeable resolution, but does not guarantee specific outcomes.

c)     SwigLab’s Role in Dispute Resolution: While SwigLab is not directly responsible for Vendor-related issues, we may intervene at our discretion to mediate disputes and ensure compliance with our platform policies. SwigLab reserves the right to assess evidence provided by both parties and, where appropriate, provide recommendations, facilitate refunds or exchanges in accordance with the Vendor's policies, or take corrective actions against Vendors who repeatedly fail to meet their obligations.

d)     Limitations on SwigLab’s Liability: Buyers agree that SwigLab is not responsible for resolving disputes that arise from the failure of a Vendor to fulfill an order, the condition of delivered products, or disagreements over refund eligibility. SwigLab does not guarantee the performance, reliability, or legal compliance of any Vendor. Any disputes regarding payments, refunds, or product-related claims must be pursued directly with the Vendor, and SwigLab will not be held liable for any losses, damages, or dissatisfaction resulting from Buyer-Vendor interactions.

 

  1. PARENTAL CONTROL PROTECTIONS

In compliance with the Communications Decency Act of 1996, we recognize the importance of protecting children from accessing content that may be inappropriate or unsuitable for minors. SwigLab is intended for use only by individuals who are 21 years of age or older, as purchasing alcoholic beverages requires legal age verification. We do not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 21, and any such accounts found to be in violation of our age policy will be terminated.

 

To assist parents and guardians in controlling the online experiences of minors, we recommend the use of parental control tools and software. These tools can help restrict access to certain content and ensure a safer browsing environment. Some widely used parental control solutions include:

·       Net Nanny (www.netnanny.com)

·       Qustodio (www.qustodio.com)

·       Norton Family (family.norton.com)

·       Microsoft Family Safety (account.microsoft.com/family)

 

Parents and guardians are encouraged to educate minors about responsible internet usage and to monitor their online activities regularly.

 

If you believe that a minor has provided personal information to SwigLab without proper age verification, please contact us at mpunjabi@gmail.com, and we will take appropriate action to remove the information and prevent further access to our platform.

 

For more information on protecting children online, you may visit the Federal Trade Commission’s website at www.ftc.gov or the OnGuardOnline website at www.onguardonline.gov.
