Dispute Resolution
If you have any claims, causes of action, issues or complaints arising out of this Agreement or the Crypto Domain(s) (“Disputes”), you agree to first open a ticket with Customer Service at https://support.binance.us/hc/en-us/requests/new and work with Customer Service to resolve your issue. Most concerns may be resolved by contacting us in this manner. You agree to use best efforts to settle any Dispute directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration, without making any public display or disclosure of any such discussion or dispute. If Customer Service is unable to resolve your issue, please email your complaint to resolutions@binance.us.
If an agreed-upon solution is not reached within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated, then either you or we may initiate a binding arbitration. If we cannot resolve your Dispute through the complaint process, you agree that the Dispute, including, but not limited to, legal and equitable claims, federal and state statutory claims, common law claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory relating to the Dispute, shall be resolved through binding arbitration on an individual basis (except as specifically noted below). Arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). In agreeing to this binding commitment to arbitrate your claims, you agree that you waive any right to proceed in a court of law or to have your claims heard by a jury. The arbitration shall: (1) be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator in the English language; (2) be held virtually and not in person for all proceedings related to the arbitration, except by mutual agreement of all parties; and (3) be limited to one deposition per party, except by mutual agreement of all parties or upon a showing of need. Furthermore, in cases where neither party’s claim(s) or counterclaim(s) exceed $25,000, both parties agree to waive an arbitration hearing and resolve the dispute solely through submissions of documents to the arbitrator. The AAA rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.
Without waiving or otherwise affecting the Class Action Waiver below, in the event that your claim(s) in an arbitration substantially implicate or relate to the rights of, or claims by, other Binance.US customers who have also initiated arbitration against Binance.US, you agree that Binance.US shall have the right, but not the obligation, to join or consolidate such arbitrations into a single arbitration, in Binance.US’ sole discretion.
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail, Federal Express, UPS, or Express Mail (signature required) (“Notice”). The Notice must: (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (2) set forth the specific relief sought. The parties agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Binance.US may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Binance.US shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. All documents and information disclosed in the course of the arbitration shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who have a need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.
Class Action Waiver
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN A PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND BINANCE.US AGREE, NO ARBITRATOR OR JUDGE MAY CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY CLASS ARBITRATION. BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU AND BINANCE.US EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO: (1) A JURY TRIAL; AND (2) PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION. IF A COURT DECIDES THAT APPLICABLE LAW PRECLUDES ENFORCEMENT OF ANY OF THIS PARAGRAPH’S LIMITATIONS AS TO A PARTICULAR CLAIM FOR RELIEF, THEN THAT CLAIM (AND ONLY THAT CLAIM) MUST BE SEVERED FROM THE ARBITRATION AND MAY BE BROUGHT IN COURT. THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER IS SUBJECT TO AND DOES NOT IMPAIR OR IMPEDE BINANCE.US’ RIGHT TO CONSOLIDATE RELATED USER CLAIMS AS DESCRIBED ABOVE.
-
Governing Law
This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted according to the laws of the State of California, without regard to any choice of laws or conflict of laws principles or rules that would result in the application of a different state jurisdiction’s laws. To the extent a Dispute is not subject to arbitration as set forth in Section 10 above, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute shall be a court of competent jurisdiction located in the State of California.
