9. Indemnification
You will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company, our affiliates, and our respective directors, officers, employees, representatives, and agents for any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and all related costs and expenses) arising from or relating to any claim, suit, proceeding, demand, or action brought by you, a third party or another User relating to or arising out of: (a) the use of the Platform by you or your agents, including any payment obligations or default incurred through use of the Platform; (b) any Project Agreement or Project Financing Agreement entered into by you or your agents, including the classification of you as an independent contractor, the classification of the Company as an employer or joint employer of you, and any other claims relating to employment in connection with such engagement; (c) failure to comply with these Terms or Applicable Law by you or your agents; (d) negligence, willful misconduct, or fraud by you or your agents; and (e) defamation, libel, violation of privacy rights, unfair competition, or infringement of Intellectual Property Rights or allegations thereof to the extent caused by you or your agents. For purposes of this section, your agents include any Person who has apparent authority to access or use your Account as demonstrated by using your username and password. If you are a Client, your obligations set forth in this Section 9 are in addition to any indemnification obligations under your SaaS Agreement.
10. Disputes
You should review this section carefully. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you are GIVING UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights EXCEPT for matters that you file in small claims court as permitted by these Terms and Applicable Law.
For any and all Disputes between you and us, including the interpretation and scope of this section and the arbitrability of such a Dispute, relating to these Terms or your use of the Platform, you and we agree to resolve any such Dispute exclusively through binding and confidential arbitration. For the avoidance of doubt, this section does not apply to Disputes exclusively between you and another Member with respect to a Project Agreement or Project Financing Agreement. In the event of any such Dispute between you and us, the complaining party must notify the other party in writing. Within thirty (30) days of such notice, you and we agree to use reasonable efforts to attempt to resolve the Dispute in good faith. If you and we do not resolve the Dispute within thirty (30) days after such notice, the complaining party may seek remedies exclusively through arbitration. Except as otherwise expressly provided by Applicable Law, the demand for arbitration must be made within a reasonable time after the Dispute in question arose, and in any event within two years after the complaining party knew or should have known of the Dispute.The arbitration will take place in San Francisco, California. As used in this section, “we” and “us” mean: the Company; its subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, successors, and assigns; all of its and their respective employees, officers, directors, agents, and representatives; and any third party providing any product, service, or benefit in connection with the Website or these Terms if such third party is named as a co-party with us in any Dispute subject to this section.
The arbitration will be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and not any state arbitration law. The arbitration will be conducted before one commercial arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) with substantial experience in resolving commercial contract disputes. As modified by the terms of this section, and unless otherwise agreed upon by you and us in writing, the arbitration will be governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and, if the arbitrator deems them applicable, the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, the “Rules and Procedures”).
Notwithstanding the agreement to arbitrate provided in this section, you and we may seek emergency equitable relief in federal court if it has jurisdiction or, if it does not, in a state court located in San Francisco, California in order to maintain the status quo pending arbitration, and you and we hereby agree to submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of such courts for such purpose. A request for interim measures will not be deemed a waiver of the obligation to arbitrate.
Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury. You are entitled to a FAIR HEARING, BUT the arbitration procedures may be SIMPLER AND MORE LIMITED THAN RULES APPLICABLE IN COURT. Arbitrators’ decisions are as enforceable as any court order and are subject to VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY A COURT.
You and we must abide by the following rules: (A) ANY CLAIMS BROUGHT BY YOU OR US MUST BE BROUGHT IN ONLY THAT PARTY’S CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING; (B) THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING, AND MAY NOT AWARD CLASS-WIDE RELIEF; (c) we will pay as much of your filing and hearing fees in connection with the arbitration as required by the Rules and Procedures and/or as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to the cost of litigation; (d) we also reserve the right, in our sole and exclusive discretion, to assume responsibility for any or all of the costs of the arbitration; (e) the arbitrator will honor claims of privilege and privacy recognized at law; (f) the arbitration will be confidential, and neither you nor we may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration, except as may be required by Applicable Law or for purposes of enforcement of the arbitration award; (g) subject to the limitation of liability provisions of these Terms, the arbitrator may award any individual relief or individual remedies that are expressly permitted by Applicable Law; and (h) each party will pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses, unless there is a statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid its fees and litigation expenses and the arbitrator awards such attorneys’ fees and expenses to the prevailing party, and, in such instance, the fees and costs awarded will be determined by Applicable Law.
This section will survive termination of these Terms as well as any voluntary payment of any debt in full by you or any bankruptcy by you or us. With the exception of subparts (a) and (b) of the preceding paragraph (prohibiting arbitration on a class or collective basis), if any part of this section is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the Rules and Procedures, then the balance of this section will remain in effect and will be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal, or conflicting part was not contained herein. If, however, either subpart (a) or (b) of the preceding paragraph is found to be invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then the entirety of this section will be null and void, and neither you nor we will be entitled to arbitration. If for any reason a Dispute proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the Dispute will be exclusively brought in federal court if it has jurisdiction or, if it does not, in a state court located in San Francisco, California.

11. Miscellaneous
11.1 Survival
After these Terms terminate, the terms of these Terms (including the Terms of Use) that expressly or by their nature contemplate performance after these Terms terminate will survive and continue in full force and effect. Without limiting any other provisions of these Terms, the termination of these Terms for any reason will not release you or us from any obligations incurred prior to termination of these Terms or that may accrue thereafter in respect of any act or omission prior to such termination.
11.2 Choice of Law
These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. However, notwithstanding this provision, the arbitration terms provided in Section 10 are governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.
11.3 Entire Agreement
These Terms, including the Terms of Use and together with any applicable SaaS Agreement, sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between you and us relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and cancels and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous discussions, agreements, representations, warranties, and other communications between you and us, whether written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Even though we drafted these Terms, you represent that you have had ample time to review and decide whether to agree to these Terms, including time to consult with legal counsel. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation of these Terms arises, no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring you or us because of the authorship of any provision of these Terms.
11.4 No Waiver
The failure or delay of either party to exercise or enforce any right or claim does not constitute a waiver of such right or claim and will in no way affect that party’s right to later enforce or exercise it, unless such party issues an express written waiver, signed by a duly authorized representative of that party.
11.5 Assignability
You may not assign these Terms, or any of your rights or obligations hereunder, without our prior written consent in the form of a written instrument signed by a duly authorized representative of the Company.

The Company may freely assign these Terms without your consent or the consent of any other User. Any attempted assignment or transfer in violation of this subsection will be null and void. Subject to the foregoing restrictions, these Terms are binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the parties.
11.6 Force Majeure
The parties to these Terms will not be responsible for the failure to perform or any delay in performance of any obligation hereunder due to labor disturbances, accidents, fires, floods, telecommunications or Internet failures, strikes, wars, riots, rebellions, blockades, epidemic, pandemic, disease outbreak (including the COVID-19 virus), acts of government, governmental requirements and regulations or restrictions imposed by law or any other similar conditions beyond the reasonable control of such party (collectively, “Force Majeure Events”). The time for performance of such party will be extended by the period of such delay. Irrespective of any extension of time, if a Force Majeure Event occurs and its effect continues for a period of sixty (60) days, either party may give to the other a thirty (30) day notice of termination. If, at the end of the thirty (30) day period, the effect of the Force Majeure Event continues, these Terms will terminate.
