13. BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
PLEASE CAREFULLY READ THIS SECTION ABOUT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
13.1. You and We agree, except as provided below regarding small claims court proceedings, any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating in any way to the Our Application, Services and Content, including, but not limited to, Our Application, Our Content, products, Services and User interfaces, Our Privacy Policy and/or Our privacy practices generally, these Terms, and this Arbitration Agreement, shall be determined by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. YOU AGREE THAT, BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, THE U.S. FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT GOVERNS THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT YOU AND WE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
13.2. Prior to initiating arbitration, the party asserting the claim must first send to the other a written Notice of Claim (the “Notice”). The Notice must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought.
Following the receipt of the Notice, the parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating arbitration.
If You have any concerns or queries regarding our Application, You may contact us at support@hublix.com. Most concerns are quickly resolved in this manner to our customers’ satisfaction.
13.3. If the parties do not reach an agreed upon solution within 90 days from the time the informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to Section 13.2 above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to formally resolve all claims and disputes between them, subject to the terms set forth below:
13.4. Class/Privacy Attorney General Waivers: YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both You and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class, collective, or representative proceeding. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class, collective, or representative action waiver set forth in this Section 13.4 is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class, collective, or representative basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
13.5. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, as an exception to resolving all disputes through binding arbitration, to the extent that a dispute arises from:
13.6. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the binding arbitration and class, collective, and representative action waiver provisions set forth in Sections 13.1 through 13.5 above by sending written notice of Your decision to opt-out to the following address: Level 5, 129 Hurstmere Road, Takapuna, Auckland 0622, Attention: Legal Department. The notice must be sent within 30 days of the earlier of Your first download of the applicable Application or commencing use of our Application (or if no purchase was made, then within 30 days of the earliest of the date on which You first download the applicable game or accessed or commenced using the applicable Service). Your request to be excluded will only be effective and enforceable if You can prove the request was postmarked within the applicable 30-day deadline. Otherwise, You shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those Sections. If You opt-out of these arbitration provisions, We also will not be bound by them.
13.7. Hublix will provide 30-days’ notice of any changes to this Section 10 through the Application or via other similar means. Changes will become effective on the 30th day from the first posting of the notice, and will apply prospectively only to any claims arising after the 30th day. In the event that You reject any future changes, You are agreeing that You will arbitrate any dispute or claim between us in accordance with the language of this Section 13.
14. Dispute Resolution, Governing Law, and Jurisdiction
14.1. If a dispute arises between You and Hublix, we strongly encourage You to first contact us directly to seek a resolution by contacting us at support@hublix.com.
14.2. If You are a resident of the United States:
14.3. If You are a resident outside of the United States, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law:

15.4. We reserve the right to delete Your account if no activity is conducted by You in relation to the account for 180 or more days. In such event, You may no longer be able to access and/or use any Virtual Currency and/or Virtual Goods (as defined below) associated with that account and no refund will be offered to You in relation to the same.
