We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, price change, suspension, or discontinuance of the Site.

We reserve the right to change, revise, update, suspend, discontinue, or otherwise modify the Site at any time or for any reason without notice to you.

Nothing in these Terms of Service will be construed to obligate us to maintain and support the Site or to supply any corrections, updates, or releases in connection therewith.

GOVERNING LAW

These Terms of Service and your use of the Site are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California applicable to agreements made and to be entirely performed within the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or claim related to these Terms of Service (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the “Disputes”) brought by either you or us (individually, a “Party” and collectively, the “Parties”), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute informally for at least SIXTY (60) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon contacting us at contact@spreadsheet.dev. We will respond to you by email and attempt to resolve Disputes you submit to us.

Binding Arbitration

If the Parties are unable to resolve Disputes through informal negotiations, the Disputes will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.

The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

Disputes shall be heard by a single arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes. The place of arbitration shall be Santa Clara County, California. The arbitration shall be conducted and the award shall be rendered in the English language. The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of California.

The award shall be made within three months of the filing of the notice of intention to arbitrate (demand), and the arbitrator shall agree to comply with this schedule before accepting appointment. However, this time limit may be extended by the arbitrator for good cause shown, or by mutual agreement of the parties.

Each party will, upon written request of the other party, promptly provide the other with copies of all relevant, non-privileged documents. There shall be no other discovery allowed.

In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, requests for documents:

• Shall be limited to documents which are directly relevant to significant issues in the case or to the case’s outcome;

• Shall be restricted in terms of time frame, subject matter and persons or entities to which the requests pertain; and

• Shall not include broad phraseology such as “all documents directly or indirectly related to.”

In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement:

• There shall be production of electronic documents only from sources used in the ordinary course of business. Absent a showing of compelling need, no such documents are required to be produced from backup servers, tapes or other media.

• Absent a showing of compelling need, the production of electronic documents shall normally be made on the basis of generally available technology in a searchable format which is usable by the party receiving the e-documents and convenient and economical for the producing party. Absent a showing of compelling need, the parties need not produce metadata, with the exception of header fields for email correspondence.

• The description of custodians from whom electronic documents may be collected shall be narrowly tailored to include only those individuals whose electronic documents may reasonably be expected to contain evidence that is material to the Dispute.

• Where the costs and burdens of e-discovery are disproportionate to the nature of the Dispute or to the amount in controversy, or to the relevance of the materials requested, the arbitrator will either deny such requests or order disclosure on condition that the requesting party advance the reasonable cost of production to the other side, subject to the allocation of costs in the final award.

The arbitration will be based on the submission of documents and there shall be no in-person or oral hearing.

The arbitrator will have no authority to award punitive or other damages not measured by the prevailing party's actual damages, except as may be required by statute. The arbitrator shall not award consequential damages in any arbitration initiated under this section. Any award in an arbitration initiated under this clause shall be limited to monetary damages and shall include no injunction or direction to any party other than the direction to pay a monetary amount. In no event shall an award in an arbitration initiated under this clause exceed the amount paid, if any, by the claimant to the defendant during the one (1) month period prior to any cause of action arising.

Each party shall bear its own costs and expenses and an equal share of the arbitrators' and administrative fees of arbitration.

Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties.

The arbitrator’s award will not be accompanied by a reasoned opinion.

In no event shall Disputes brought by either Party related in any way to the Site be commenced more than ONE (1) year after the cause of action arose.

In the event of any claim that this arbitration agreement is invalid or is not enforceable by the arbitrator, the arbitrator shall determine whether the arbitration agreement is valid and enforceable. The parties agree that this determination, often reserved for the courts, is hereby submitted to the arbitrator.

Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Service.

Restrictions

The Parties agree that any arbitration shall be limited to Disputes between the Parties individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or authority for Disputes to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or authority for Disputes to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR AUTHORS, PARTNERS, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, LOSS OF PROFIT, LOSS OF REVENUE, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, LOSS OF DATA, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, OR OTHER ECONOMIC ADVANTAGE), ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SITE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF, OR REASONABLY COULD HAVE FORESEEN, THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, HOWEVER THEY ARISE, WHETHER IN BREACH OF CONTRACT OR IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION DAMAGES DUE TO (a) THE USE OF OR THE INABILITY TO USE THE SITE, ANY WEBSITE LINKED TO THE SITE, ANY CONTENT ON THE SITE, OR SUCH OTHER WEBSITES LINKED TO SUCH CONTENT, OR ANY SERVICES OR ITEMS OBTAINED THROUGH THE SITE OR SUCH OTHER WEBSITES; (b) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS AND SERVICES RESULTING FROM ANY GOODS, DATA, INFORMATION OR SERVICES PURCHASED OR OBTAINED OR MESSAGES RECEIVED OR TRANSACTIONS ENTERED INTO, THROUGH OR FROM THE SITE; (c) STATEMENTS OR CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY ON THE SITE, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF TRANSMISSIONS OR DATA, MALICIOUS OR CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR, OR FALSE OR FRAUDULENT TRANSACTIONS, OR (d) CONTENT OR INFORMATION YOU MAY DOWNLOAD, USE, MODIFY OR DISTRIBUTE.

ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SITE MUST BE COMMENCED WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES, OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

MISCELLANEOUS

These Terms of Service and any policies or operating rules posted by us on the Site constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and us. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision.
