Any law or regulation which provides that the language of a contract shall be construed against the drafter will not apply to this Agreement.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
Most issues can be resolved quickly and amicably by contacting Fabzen customer support at info@fabzentech.com. But we understand that sometimes disputes cannot be easily resolved internally. This Section explains how You and Fabzen agree to resolve those disputes, including (where applicable) binding, individual arbitration.
Arbitration is an alternative dispute resolution (ADR) procedure that allows us to resolve issues without the formality of going to court. Any dispute between You and Fabzen is submitted to a neutral arbitrator (not a judge or jury) for fair and fast resolution. Arbitration is more efficient for both, you and Fabzen.
If you have an issue that our customer support cannot resolve, prior to starting arbitration You and Fabzen agree to attempt to resolve the dispute informally to help get us to a resolution and control costs for both parties. You and Fabzen agree to make a good-faith effort to negotiate any dispute between us for at least 30 days ("Informal Resolution"). Those informal negotiations will start on the day You or Fabzen receive a written Notice of a Dispute occurrence in accordance with this Agreement.
You will send your Notice of Dispute to Fabzen Technologies Private Limited., Legal Department, ATTN: NOTICE OF DISPUTE, Plot No. 77, 5th floor, JBR Tech Park, 6th Rd, EPIP Zone, Whitefield, Bengaluru - 560066. Include your name, the account name you use while using the Software, your address, how to contact you, what the problem is, and what you want Fabzen to do. If Fabzen has a dispute with You, Fabzen will send our Notice of Dispute to your registered email address and any billing address You have provided us.
If the dispute is not resolved within by Informal Resolution, You or Fabzen may start arbitration in accordance with this Agreement.
THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS IN THIS SECTION WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY.
You and Fabzen agree that Disputes will be settled by binding, individual arbitration conducted by the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 as conveyed by this Agreement.
This means that You and Fabzen agree to a dispute-resolution process where we submit any Dispute to a neutral arbitrator (a mutually agreed arbitrator) that makes the final decision to resolve the Dispute. This shall enable us to use experienced professionals to arbitrate disputes, which helps You and Fabzen resolve any disputes fairly, but more quickly and efficiently than going to court. The arbitrator may award the same remedies to you individually as a court could, but only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.
The arbitrator's decision is final, except for a limited review by courts under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, and can be enforced like any other court order or judgment. You and Fabzen agree that whether a dispute is subject to arbitration under this Agreement will be determined by the arbitrator rather than a court.
Nothing in this clause shall stop www.empiregames.in from informing the executive authorities regarding any non-compliance as per clauses (3) & (4) and/or in the event of any financial or cyber-crime as per IT Act, 2000 & the Indian Penal Code, when we may deem fit and necessary.
If all or any provision of this Binding, Individual Arbitration Agreement is found invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, then You and Fabzen agree that the provision will be severed and the rest of the agreement shall remain in effect and be construed as if any severed provision had not been included. The sole exception is that if the Class Action Waiver is found invalid, unenforceable, or illegal, You and Fabzen agree that it will not be severable; this entire Binding Individual Arbitration section will be void and unenforceable and any dispute will be resolved in court subject to the venue and choice of clauses specified in this Agreement.
