Resolution

15.1 Governing Law

These
Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, United States, without
regard to conflict-of-law principles.

15.2 Informal Resolution and Binding Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS
SECTION CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE
A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

Informal Resolution First. Before initiating any formal
proceeding, you agree to contact us at info@thenovaelement.com and provide a written
description of the dispute, all relevant documents and information, and the specific
relief sought. The parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute
informally within sixty (60) days of receipt of the written notice.

Any
dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms, the
App, or the Services ("Dispute")
shall be resolved exclusively through final
and binding individual arbitration
administered by the American Arbitration
Association ("AAA") under
its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, rather than in court. The
arbitration shall take place in Atlanta, Georgia, or, at your election, may be
conducted by telephone, video conference, or based on written submissions. The
arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute relating to
the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this
arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or any part of this
agreement is void or voidable.

This
arbitration provision applies to all Disputes, whether arising before, on, or

conduct, acts, or omissions that occurred prior to your acceptance. By
accepting these Terms, you agree to arbitrate all such past, present, and
future Disputes on an individual basis.

 

15.3 Class Action and Jury Trial
Waiver

YOU AND THE COMPANY
EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL. YOU AND THE COMPANY EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT
TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE
PROCEEDING.
Unless
both you and the Company agree otherwise in writing, the arbitrator may not
consolidate or join more than one person's or party's claims and may not
preside over any form of consolidated, representative, or class proceeding.

You
further covenant and agree not to serve as a plaintiff, class representative,
or class member in any purported class action, collective action, private
attorney general action, or representative proceeding against the Company
arising out of or relating to these Terms or the App. This covenant constitutes
an independent contractual agreement between you and the Company and is
severable from the arbitration provision in § 15.2. This covenant shall remain
enforceable even if any portion of § 15.2 is found to be invalid or
unenforceable.

 

15.4 Small Claims Exception

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims
court in Fulton County, Georgia (or the county in which you reside), provided
the claim falls within that court's jurisdictional limits and remains on an
individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

15.5 Arbitration Fees

If
you initiate arbitration, you will be responsible for paying the AAA's consumer
filing fee (currently $225 for claims under $75,000). If the arbitrator
