15. Dispute Resolution Procedure- Binding Arbitration Required
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH US.
You agree that any dispute between you and KindRun arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be governed by the arbitration procedure outlined below:
- Before filing a claim against KindRun, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting compliance@kindrun.com. If we cannot resolve the Dispute within fifteen (15) days after contacting us, you may bring a formal proceeding.
- If you and KindRun are unable to resolve a Dispute formally, you and KindRun agree to resolve any Disputes through final and binding arbitration, except either you or KindRun may assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in Suffolk County, Massachusetts, or any United States county where you live or work. Either party may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
- You can decline this agreement to arbitrate by contacting compliance@kindrun.com within thirty (30) days of first accepting this Agreement and stating that you (include your first and last name) decline this arbitration agreement.
- The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) will administer the arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect. Arbitration will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules. The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, Suffolk County, Massachusetts, or any other location we agree to.
- The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. If the value of your claim does not exceed $10,000, KindRun will pay for the reasonable filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration, unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought was frivolous or brought for an improper purpose.
16. Limitation on Claims
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
You may only resolve Disputes with KindRun on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not allowed under our agreement. Regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to these Terms or the Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose, or else that claim or cause of action will be barred forever.
17. Governing Law and Venue

If you choose to access our Services you agree to do so subject to the laws of Massachusetts and the United States. Except as otherwise required by applicable law, in the event that the agreement to arbitrate is found not to apply to you or your claim, you and KindRun agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Suffolk County, Massachusetts. Both you and KindRun consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.

Immaterial modifications are effective upon publication, and material changes will be effective upon the earlier of (a) continued use of the Services with actual knowledge of the modification, or (b) thirty (30) days following the change.
