  1. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration
    1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between You and SpeedySwab  in the most expedient and cost effective manner, and except as described in Section 15.2 and 15.3, You and SpeedySwab.com agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms or the COVID-19 Home Test will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms or the COVID-19 Home Test, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND ELLUME ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
    2. Exceptions. Despite the provisions of Section 13.1, nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
    3. Opt-Out. If You do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, You may opt out of the provisions of this Section 15 within 30 days after the date that You agree to these Terms by sending a letter
    4.  that specifies: Your full legal name, the email address associated with Your registration on the COVID-19 Home Test, and a statement that You wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once SpeedySwab receives Your Opt-Out Notice, this Section 13 will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in Section 13. The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by Your Opt-Out Notice.
    5. Arbitrator. Any arbitration between You and SpeedySwab will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of JAMS (“JAMS Rules”), which rules are available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS may be contacted at www.jamsadr.com, or by contacting SpeedySwab. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.
    6. Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). SpeedySwab’s  address for Notice is: Watmind USA 4780 I 55 N. Ste. 450, Jackson, MS 39211. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, You or SpeedySwab may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by You or SpeedySwab must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards You an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by SpeedySwab in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, SpeedySwab will pay to You the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $5,000.
    7. Fees. If You commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, SpeedySwab will reimburse You for Your payment of the filing fee, unless Your claim is for more than $5,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the JAMS Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location determined by JAMS but if the claim is for $5,000 or less, You may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules in the county (or parish) of Your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of Your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules. In that case, You agree to reimburse SpeedySwab for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise Your obligation to pay under the JAMS Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
    8. No Class Actions. YOU AND SpeedySwab AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both You and SpeedySwab agree otherwise, 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.
    9. Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If SpeedySwab makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to SpeedySwab address for Notice of Arbitration, You may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to SpeedySwab’s address for Notice of Arbitration, in which case Your account with SpeedySwab will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes You rejected will survive.
    10. Enforceability. If Section 13.7 or the entirety of this Section 13 is found to be unenforceable, or if SpeedySwab receives an Opt-Out Notice from You, then the entirety of this Section 13 will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 14.2 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
  2. Miscellaneous
    1. General Terms. All of the terms and conditions set forth in this document prior to Section 1 above are incorporated into and made a part of these Terms. These Terms, together with the Instructions and the COVID-19 Home Test Privacy Policy, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between You and SpeedySwab regarding use of the COVID-19 Home Test. If there is any conflict or inconsistency between these Terms and the Instructions, these Terms control to the extent of that conflict or inconsistency.

We may assign these Terms at any time without notice or consent. These Terms shall bind and inure to the benefit of Your and heirs, successors, and assigns. The failure to require performance of any provision will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default. Only waivers that we make expressly in writing that specifically reference the relevant provision and issue being waived have legal effect. Use of section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to,” and the use of the word “or” will mean “and/or.” If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.
    2. Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Mississippi without regard to conflict of law principles. You and SpeedySwab submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Hinds County, Mississippi for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms.
