8. MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
THIS SECTION 8 OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE REFERRED TO AS THE “ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.”
PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT CAREFULLY TO UNDERSTAND YOUR RIGHTS. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH US AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US, IN PARTICULAR:
- All claims must be resolved through binding arbitration by a neutral arbitrator;
- You are waiving the right to a trial by jury; the rights that you would have if you went to court, such as discovery or the right to appeal, may be more limited or may not exist;
- You may only bring a claim in your individual capacity and not as a plaintiff (lead or otherwise) or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding;
- The arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
8.1. Applicability of Arbitration Agreement
This arbitration agreement governs any dispute between you and the Company (and each of our respective agents, corporate parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns) including but not limited to claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between you and the Company, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; claims that arose before these Terms or any prior agreement; and claims that may arise after the termination of these Terms (“Dispute”), except claims that can be brought in small claims court if your claims qualify within the scope of that court's jurisdiction.
Without limiting the preceding sentence, you will also have the right to litigate any other Dispute if you opt out of this arbitration and class action waiver provisions by sending electronic notice of your decision to opt-out to legal.support@betterme.world with the subject line, "ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT" within 30 days of (a) the effective date of these Terms; or (b) your first date that you used the Service that contained any versions of the Terms that substantially included this version of the Arbitration Agreement (including class action waiver), whichever is later. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, the Company also will not be bound by it and any Dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 17. If you don’t exercise the right to opt-out, you will be deemed to have knowingly and intentionally waived your right to litigate any Dispute except claims that can be brought in small claims court.
This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose or were asserted before the effective date of these Terms or any prior version of these Terms.
The relevant arbitrator shall have sole authority to determine the applicability, existence, validity, and termination of the Arbitration Agreement in each particular case. In the event that a dispute involves both issues that are subject to arbitration and issues that are not subject to arbitration, the parties unequivocally agree that any legal proceeding regarding the issues not subject to arbitration shall be stayed pending resolution of the issues subject to arbitration.
8.2. Initial Dispute Resolution
We are always interested in resolving disputes amicably and efficiently. The parties therefore agree that, before either party demands arbitration against the other, we will personally meet and confer, via telephone or videoconference, in a good-faith effort to resolve informally any claim covered by this Arbitration Agreement.
If you have any dispute with the Company, you agree that before taking any formal action, you will contact us at legal.support@betterme.world or at BetterMe International Limited, Themistokli Dervi 39, 1st floor, Office 104, 1066, Nicosia, Cyprus, and provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information. The parties agree to use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation with the Company, and good faith negotiations will be a condition to either party initiating an arbitration. Engaging in an informal dispute resolution is a condition precedent that must be fulfilled before commencing arbitration, and the Arbitrator shall dismiss any arbitration demand filed before the completion of an informal dispute resolution. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this paragraph.
8.3. Mandatory Arbitration
This arbitration agreement provides that all Disputes must be resolved through BINDING ARBITRATION, except to the extent that the applicable law prohibits the exclusive use of arbitration for dispute resolution.
YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND AGREE TO HAVE OUR DISPUTES FINALLY SETTLED BY BINDING ARBITRATION before one arbitrator administered by:
- the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”) if you are not a U.S. resident. Disputes are subject to the most current version of the LCIA Arbitration Rules when the notice of arbitration is submitted. Information about the LCIA’s rules can be found at https://www.lcia.org/Dispute_Resolution_Services/LCIA_Arbitration.aspx; or
- Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) if you are a U.S. resident. Disputes involving claims and counterclaims under USD 250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other claims shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267.
In each case the relevant arbitration rules will apply as modified by this Arbitration Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the applicable arbitration rules and these Terms, these Terms shall govern unless otherwise agreed by the parties and the relevant arbitrator.
If the relevant administrator of arbitration is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.
8.4. Waiver of Class Action and Collective Relief
EXCEPT AS SPECIFIED IN THE “BATCH ARBITRATION”, THERE SHALL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY CLAIMS TO BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED ON A CLASS ACTION, JOINT OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR ON BASES INVOLVING CLAIMS BROUGHT IN A PURPORTED REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY ON BEHALF OF THE GENERAL PUBLIC, OTHER USERS OF THE SERVICES, OR ANY OTHER PERSONS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF WARRANTED BY THAT INDIVIDUAL PARTY’S CLAIM. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT AWARD RELIEF FOR OR AGAINST ANYONE WHO IS NOT A PARTY. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS AND COLLECTIVE RELIEF IS AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CANNOT BE SEVERED FROM IT.
BY AGREEING TO THE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES AS SET FORTH HEREIN, YOU AGREE THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND LIMITING YOUR RIGHT TO APPEAL AND YOU UNDERSTAND THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHTS TO OTHER AVAILABLE RESOLUTION PROCESSES, SUCH AS A COURT ACTION.
THE ARBITRATOR HAS NO AUTHORITY TO AWARD PUNITIVE DAMAGES.

- if you are not a U.S. resident, the laws of England and Wales (also known as English Law), without regard to English Law’s conflict of laws rules; or
- if you are a U.S. resident, Delaware law is consistent with the Federal Arbitration Act and applicable statutes of limitations, having regard to claims of privilege recognized at law.
- Language. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
- Commencing an Arbitration. To start an arbitration, you must follow the instructions available at:
- https://www.lcia.org/adr-services/lcia-notes-for-parties.aspx#5.%20COMMENCING%20AN%20LCIA%20ARBITRATION for LCIA; or
- https://www.jamsadr.com/submit/ for JAMS.
You may represent yourself in the arbitration or have a lawyer (or some other representative) act on your behalf. Upon receipt of an arbitration claim, we may assert any counterclaims we may have against the complaining party.
- Fees. If you are a consumer and you initiate arbitration against us, the only filing fee you will be required to pay is USD 250 and the rest of the filing fees (if any) shall be borne by us. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration initiated by you to be non-frivolous and/or not in bad faith we will cover all other arbitration costs, including case management fees and all professional fees for the arbitrator's services (but not your attorneys’ fees, if any).
If we initiate arbitration against you and you are a consumer, we will pay for all costs associated with the arbitration (but not your attorneys’ fees, if any).
The parties shall be responsible for paying their own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.
Should either party bring a Dispute involving issues subject to arbitration in a forum other than arbitration, the court or the arbitrator shall have the authority to award reasonable costs, fees and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred by the other party in successfully staying or dismissing, in whole or in part, such other proceeding or in otherwise enforcing compliance with this Arbitration Agreement.
- Selection of the Arbitrator. The arbitrator who will hear and decide your Dispute will be appointed by the LCIA or JAMS, as applicable, in accordance with their respective rules.
- Arbitration Hearings. The arbitrator will conduct hearings, if any, by teleconference or videoconference (based on written and/or electronic filing of documents), rather than by personal appearances, unless the arbitrator determines upon request by you or by us that an in-person hearing is appropriate. Any in-person appearances will be held at a location that is reasonably convenient to both parties with due consideration of their ability to travel and other pertinent circumstances, provided that if you are a consumer, you have a right to an in-person hearing in your hometown area. If the parties are unable to agree on a location, such determination should be made by the administrator of arbitration or by the arbitrator.
- Discovery. Each party may (a) request relevant, non-privileged documents from the other party; and (b) request that the other party provide the particulars of its claims or defenses. Any such discovery requests must be served on the other party within 10 days after the arbitrator’s appointment. The responding party shall provide the requesting party with all responsive, non-privileged documents, the requested particulars, and/or any objections to the requests within 15 days after receipt of the requests. Any disputes about discovery or requests for extensions shall be submitted promptly to the arbitrator for prompt resolution. In ruling on any discovery dispute or extension request, the arbitrator shall take into consideration the nature, amount, and scope of the underlying arbitration claim, the cost and other effort that would be involved in providing the requested discovery, the case schedule, and whether the requested discovery is necessary for the adequate preparation of a claim or defense.
- Communications with the Arbitrator. Whenever communicating with the arbitrator, the parties must include each other – for example, by including the other party on a telephone conference call and copying the other party on any written submissions, such as letters or emails. To the extent practicable, conferences with the arbitrator will take place by telephone conference call or email. Ex-parte communications are not permitted with any arbitrator.
- Confidentiality. Upon either party’s request, the arbitrator will issue an order requiring that confidential information of either party disclosed during the arbitration (whether in documents or orally) may not be used or disclosed except in connection with the arbitration or a proceeding to enforce the arbitration award and that any permitted filing of confidential information must be done under seal.
- Arbitration Award. The arbitrator will render a written decision within 14 days after the hearing or, if no hearing was held, within 30 days after any rebuttal or supplemental statements are due. The decision must clearly specify the relief, if any, awarded and contain a brief statement of the reasons for the award.
- Waiver of Appeal. The parties agree that the award shall be final and binding upon the parties and waive any right to refer any question of law and any right of appeal on the law and/or the merits to any court.
- Consumer Remedies. If you are a consumer, remedies that would otherwise be available to you under applicable laws will remain available under this Arbitration Agreement, unless you retain the right to pursue such remedies in court as per this Agreement.
8.6. Batching Arbitrations
To the extent permitted by applicable law, to increase the efficiency of the resolution, in the event 100 or more similar arbitration demands against the Company, presented by or with the assistance or involvement of the same law firm or organization, are submitted to an arbitration provider selected in accordance with the rules described above within a 30-day period:
- the parties shall cooperate to group the arbitration demands into randomized batches of no more than 100 demands per batch (plus, to the extent there are fewer than 100 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining demands);
- claimants’ counsel shall organize and present the batched demands to the Arbitration Provider in a format as directed by the arbitration provider;
- The arbitration Provider shall provide for the resolution of each batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and one arbitrator assigned per batch, and
- the Arbitration Provider shall send one set of disclosures per batch and will set up one Arbitration Management Conference per batch.
You agree to cooperate in good faith with the Company and the Arbitration Provider to implement such a batch approach to resolution and fees. Disagreements over the applicability of this batch arbitration process will be settled in a single, consolidated arbitration proceeding that includes all affected parties and is resolved by a single arbitrator subject to the requirements of this section.
All parties agree that requests are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief.
To the extent the parties disagree on the application of the Batch Arbitration process, the disagreeing party shall advise Arbitration Providerand Arbitration Provider shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (“Administrative Arbitrator”). In an effort to expedite the resolution of any such dispute by the Administrative Arbitrator, the parties agree the Administrative Arbitrator may set forth such procedures as are necessary to resolve any disputes promptly. The Administrative Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by the Company
This Batch Arbitration provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective, and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly outlined in this provision.
8.7. Severability of Arbitration Agreement
If any portion of this Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement or the parties ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis according to this Arbitration Agreement; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in court under Section 16, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall stay pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Arbitration Agreement is found to prohibit an individual from seeking the remedy of public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Arbitration Agreement will be enforceable.
8.8. Survival
This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.

5. GIFT CARDS TERMS
5.1. These Gift Card Terms and Conditions (the “Gift Card Terms”) apply to all BetterMe Store’s electronic gift cards (“eGift Cards”), purchased, used, loaded, obtained, or otherwise redeemed (collectively “Used”) by you.
By using a Gift Card, you agree to be bound by the Terms, which include these Gift Card Terms, BetterMe’s Terms and Conditions of Use, and Terms of Sale.
For balance inquiries please check your balance or visit our Gift Cards page on BetterMe Store.
5.2. eGift Cards are available for purchase only online in the BetterMe Store and can be purchased in increments of 25$, 50$, 100$, 150, 200$, 500$.
eGift Cards have no value until activated. The Company reserves the right to suspend or delay activation until payment has been cleared.
eGift Cards are only valid if purchased from the BetterMe Store or an authorized third-party distributor. The eGift Card is neither valid nor acceptable, and we will not be held liable, if it is obtained from unauthorized sellers or resellers, including Internet auction sites.
5.3. Limitations:
The Company limits the maximum value of each eGift Card to $500.
You may not use third-party gift cards (e.g., mall gift cards) to purchase an eGift Card.
You may not use the Company’s or third-party promo codes to purchase an e eGift Card.
Your eGift Card balance cannot be used to purchase other eGift Cards.
eGift Cards may not be purchased using promotional offers or discounts.
Each purchase may only include the use of one Gift Card.
An eGift Card is not a credit, debit, or charge card. No implied warranties are attached to purchased eGift Cards.
eGift Cards cannot be returned; resold; used for payment outside of BetterMe Store; used for unauthorized advertising, marketing, sweepstakes, promotional or commercial purposes; redeemed for more than face value; transferred for value; redeemed for cash; returned for a cash refund (except to the extent required by law); or used in a manner otherwise prohibited by the Company. No portion of your eGift Card balance may be transferred to another person or applied to any other account, except to the extent required by law.
BetterMe Store will not be liable for any failure or delay in delivery. You are obligated to provide the correct email address, as applicable. The Company is not responsible for eGift Cards that are undeliverable or not received due to inaccurate delivery information.
eGift Cards obtained or purchased from non-BetterMe sources may be invalid or have a lower redeemable balance or value than the unauthorized vendor represented. The Company is not obligated to honor invalid eGift Cards or balances, or values that have been misrepresented or are incorrect.
5.4. Redemption:
eGift Cards can only be redeemed at the BetterMe Store.
When you use the eGift Card to make a purchase, the amount available on the eGift Card is reduced by the purchase amount, and each subsequent purchase is deducted from the balance. The use of your eGift Card for purchases is a demand for and withdrawal from the remaining value on your eGift Card. The balance will remain on the eGift Card until it is decreased to zero. You must have sufficient available funds on an eGift Card to make any purchase or pay any difference between the available funds and the purchase amount in cash or by credit card, or in a form acceptable to the Company.
You do not have the authority to halt a purchase initiated with your eGift Card and you are liable for any such transaction. The Company reserves the right to refuse an eGift Card or limit the ability to use if the Company has reason to believe that the Use is unauthorized, fraudulent, or otherwise illegal.
eGift Cards cannot be used to purchase certain ineligible goods and services (e.g., the Company’s digital products or subscriptions). To pay for an order that includes any ineligible items, you may need to provide a credit card, debit card, or another valid payment method. Eligible goods and services are subject to change at our discretion.
eGift Cards cannot be transferred to another account after you have redeemed the claim code.
You are not permitted to Use eGift Cards to fulfill sales or fund purchases with the intent of reselling or exporting the goods or services.
5.5. Subject to the Returns Policy, all returns for purchases made with an eGift Card will result in a credit to an eGift Card or issuance of a new Gift Card in the amount of the returned item. If multiple payment methods were used for the purchase, the portion paid for with an eGift Card will be refunded accordingly.
5.6. eGift Cards purchases are generally final and non-refundable, except as mandated by applicable law.
5.7. eGift Cards never expire or accrue fees.
5.8. In the event of a technical malfunction with an eGift Card, you may contact us via support@betterme.world for resolution.
5.9. The risk of loss and title for eGift Cards passes to the purchaser upon sale, upon electronic transmission of the eGift Card to the purchaser or designated recipient from the Company.

The Company will not replace or replenish eGift Cards that are lost, stolen, or used without authorization.
