5. Dispute Resolution
5.1 Binding Arbitration
YOU AND TOVUTI AGREE THAT DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION OR SMALL CLAIMS COURT, NOT JURY TRIAL.
This applies to all disputes arising from:
- Use of the website
- Use of the platform or services
- These Terms or any related agreements
- Any relationship between you and Tovuti
The Federal Arbitration Act governs this provision. This arbitration agreement survives termination of your account or relationship with Tovuti.
5.2 Pre-Arbitration Notice
Before filing arbitration or small claims court action, you must send written notice by certified mail to:
Tovuti, Inc.
775 S. Rivershore Lane, Suite 200
Eagle, Idaho 83616, USA
The notice must:

If we don't resolve the dispute within 60 days of receiving notice, either party may commence arbitration or file in small claims court.
5.3 Arbitration Rules
- Governed by American Arbitration Association (AAA) Commercial Arbitration Rules
- Administered by AAA
- Hearings in Delaware (unless parties agree otherwise)
- One arbitrator selected under AAA rules
- Award is final and binding (except for limited judicial review permitted by law)
Exception: This arbitration provision does not apply to injunctive relief sought by Tovuti.
5.4 Class Action Waiver
YOU AND TOVUTI AGREE TO BRING CLAIMS ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, NOT AS PART OF ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.
The arbitrator cannot consolidate multiple parties' claims. If this provision is found unenforceable, the entire arbitration provision is void.
6. General Provisions
6.1 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by Delaware law under the Federal Arbitration Act, without regard to conflict of laws principles. This does not limit mandatory consumer protection rights in your jurisdiction.

We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new "Last Updated" date.
For Website Visitors: Continued use of the website after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the new Terms.

We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

This does not include economic hardship or insufficient funds.

6.6 Export Compliance
If you export any software, you must comply with all relevant export laws and regulations. Do not export to countries restricted by U.S. regulations without proper authorization.

You may not transfer or assign these Terms or any rights hereunder. We may assign these Terms without restriction.
6.9 Severability
If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (intellectual property rights, limitations of liability, dispute resolution, indemnification) will survive termination of your account or access to the website.
6.11 Entire Agreement
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Master Service Agreement (for subscribers), constitute the entire agreement between you and Tovuti regarding use of the website and services, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings. If your institution has a Master Service Agreement with Tovuti, the Master Service Agreement terms shall supercede these Terms of Use in the event of a conflict.
