XII. Resolving Disputes: Forum, Arbitration, Class Action Waive
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY, AS IT INVOLVES A WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS TO BRING LEGAL PROCEEDINGS, INCLUDING AS A CLASS ACTION.
1. Notice of Claim and Dispute Resolution Period: Please contact NeoNomad first! NeoNomad aims to address your concerns without resorting to formal legal proceedings, if possible. If you have a dispute with NeoNomad, you should contact NeoNomad, and a ticket number will be assigned. NeoNomad will attempt to resolve your dispute internally as soon as possible. The parties agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute (these discussions shall remain confidential and be subject to applicable rules protecting settlement discussions from use as evidence in any legal proceeding).
In the event, the dispute cannot be resolved satisfactorily, and you wish to assert a legal claim against NeoNomad, you agree to set forth the basis of such claim in writing in a "Notice of Claim," as a form of prior notice to NeoNomad. The Notice of Claim must (1) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute, (2) set forth the specific relief sought, (3) provide the original ticket number, and (4) include your NeoNomad account email. The Notice of Claim should be submitted to an email address or hyperlink provided in your correspondence with NeoNomad. After you have provided the Notice of Claim to NeoNomad, the dispute referenced in the Notice of Claim may be submitted by either NeoNomad or you to arbitration in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Section, below. For the avoidance of doubt, the submission of a dispute to NeoNomad for resolution internally and the delivery of a Notice of Claim to NeoNomad are prerequisites to the commencement of an arbitration proceeding (or any other legal proceeding). During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or NeoNomad shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.
2. Agreement to Arbitrate and Governing Law: You and NeoNomad Operators agree that, subject to paragraph 1 above, any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and NeoNomad (and/or NeoNomad Operators) arising in connection with or relating in any way to these Terms or to your relationship with NeoNomad (and/or NeoNomad Operators) as a user of NeoNomad Services (whether based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of these Terms) will be determined by mandatory final and binding individual (not class) arbitration, except as set forth below under Exceptions to the Agreement to Arbitrate. You and NeoNomad Operators further agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including without limitation any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of the Agreement to Arbitrate, or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court.
THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION, AND COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD IS LIMITED. There may be more limited discovery than in court. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including, if applicable, attorney fees), except that the arbitrator may not award declaratory or injunctive relief in Favor of anyone but the parties to the arbitration. The arbitration provisions set forth in this Section will survive the termination of these Terms.
3. Arbitration Rules: The arbitration shall be subject to the ECCI Administered Arbitration Rules (EECI. Rules) in force when the Notice of Arbitration is submitted, as modified by this Section X. The arbitration will be administered by the Estonia Chamber of Commerce and Industry (EECI). Unless the parties agree otherwise, there shall be only one arbitrator appointed in accordance with the EECI Rules. Any arbitration will be conducted in the English language. Regardless of the way the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. JUDGMENT ON ANY ARBITRAL AWARD MAY BE GIVEN IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION OVER THE PARTY (OR OVER THE ASSETS OF THE PARTY) AGAINST WHOM SUCH AN AWARD IS RENDERED.

Time for Filing: ANY ARBITRATION AGAINST NeoNomad OPERATORS MUST BE COMMENCED BY FILING A REQUEST FOR ARBITRATION WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DATE THE PARTY ASSERTING THE CLAIM FIRST KNOWS OR REASONABLY SHOULD KNOW OF THE ACT, OMISSION, OR DEFAULT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM; AND THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO ANY REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM NOT ASSERTED WITHIN THAT TIME PERIOD. THIS ONE-YEAR LIMITATION PERIOD IS INCLUSIVE OF THE INTERNAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPH 1 OF THIS SECTION, ABOVE. THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT TO ANY REMEDY FOR ANY CLAIM NOT ASSERTED WITHIN THAT TIME PERIOD. If applicable law prohibits a one-year limitation period for asserting claims, any claim must be asserted within the shortest period permitted by applicable law.
5. Process; Notice: The party who intends to seek arbitration after the expiration of the Dispute Resolution Period set forth in paragraph 1, above, must submit a request to the EECI in accordance with the EECI Rules. If we request arbitration against you, we will give you notice at the email address or mailing address you have provided. You agree that any notice sent to this email or mailing address shall be deemed effective for all purposes, including, without limitation, determinations of the adequacy of service. It is your obligation to ensure that the email address and/or mailing address on file with NeoNomad is up-to-date and accurate.
6. Seat of Arbitration: The seat of the arbitration shall be Estonia.
7. Place of Hearing: The location of any in-person arbitration hearing shall be Estonia, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties.
8. Governing Law: These Terms (including this arbitration agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Estonia.
9. Confidentiality: The parties agree that the arbitration shall be kept confidential. The existence of the arbitration, any non-public information provided in the arbitration, and any submissions, orders, or awards made in the arbitration (together, the “Confidential Information”) shall not be disclosed to any non-party except the tribunal, the EECI, the parties, their counsel, experts, witnesses, accountants, and auditors, insurers and reinsurers, and any other person necessary for the conduct of the arbitration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a party may disclose Confidential Information to the extent that disclosure may be required to fulfil a legal duty, protect, or pursue a legal right, or enforce or challenge an award in bona fide legal proceedings. This confidentiality provision shall survive the termination of these Terms and of any arbitration brought pursuant to these Terms.
10. Class Action Waiver: You and NeoNomad agree that any claims relating to these Terms or to your relationship with NeoNomad as a user of NeoNomad Services (whether based on contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and whether the claims arise during or after the termination of these Terms) shall be brought against the other party in an arbitration on an individual basis only and not as a plaintiff or class member in a purported class or representative action. You and NeoNomad further agree to waive any right for such claims to be brought, heard, or arbitrated as a class, collective, representative, or private attorney general action, to the extent permissible by applicable law. Combining or consolidating individual arbitrations into a single arbitration is not permitted without the consent of all parties, including NeoNomad.
11. Modifications: NeoNomad reserves the right to update, modify, revise, suspend, or make any future changes to Section X regarding the parties’ Agreement to Arbitrate, subject to applicable law. You hereby consent and agree that it is your responsibility to ensure that your understanding of this Section is up to date.

You agree that if you object to the modifications to Section X, NeoNomad may block access to your account pending the closure of your account. In such circumstances, the Terms of Use prior to modification shall remain in full force and effect pending the closure of your account.
12. Severability: If any portion of these Terms is adjudged to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason or to any extent, the remainder of these Terms will remain valid and enforceable, and the invalid or unenforceable portion will be given effect to the greatest extent permitted by law, pending closure of NeoNomad for clarification via our Customer Support team HERE.
