Educator Marketplace Terms of Service

In these Terms of Use:

When we say “Educator Marketplace”, we mean Agile Education Marketing, LLC and any subsidiaries and affiliates of Educator Marketplace (including any that Educator Marketplace may form in the future).

When we say “Educator Marketplace Sites”, we mean www.educatormarketplace.com, and the other websites and apps operated by Educator Marketplace that link to these Terms of Use, and include services provided by Educator Marketplace and the content, activities and transactions Educator Marketplace offers or facilitates.
When we say “Terms of Use”, we mean these Terms of Use and the Service Terms (which is defined below), including for example Educator Marketplace Membership Terms..

14. Disputes/Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT

Educator Marketplace and you agree that these Terms of Use affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions.

In the event of a dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Educator Marketplace Sites, any person’s access to and/or use of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or the provision of content, products, services, and/or technology on or through the Educator Marketplace Sites, Educator Marketplace or you must give the other notice of the dispute, claim, or controversy, and the notice must include a brief written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, as well as the facts giving rise to the dispute, claim, or controversy and the relief requested. You must send any such notice to Educator Marketplace by email to [email protected] AND by U.S. Mail to Agile Education Marketing, LLC Legal Notice, to: 700 17^th St, Suite 2250, Denver CO 80202. To the extent that Educator Marketplace has your contact information, it will send any such notice to you by U.S. Mail and your email address. Educator Marketplace and you will attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy through informal negotiation within thirty (30) days from the date that any notice of dispute, claim, or controversy is sent. Educator Marketplace and you shall use reasonable, good faith, efforts to settle any dispute, claim, or controversy through consultation and good faith negotiations. After 30 days, Educator Marketplace or you may resort to the other alternatives described in this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the notice and 30 day negotiation period required by this paragraph shall not apply, however, to disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Educator Marketplace Sites.

Except as otherwise specifically set forth below, any dispute, claim, or controversy of any kind between Educator Marketplace and you arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Educator Marketplace Sites, any person’s access to and/or use of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or the provision of content, products, services, and/or technology on or through the Educator Marketplace Sites, if unresolved through informal discussions within thirty (30) days of the sending of the notice described above, shall be resolved by binding arbitration to be held in the U.S. state in which you reside. For residents outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in New York, New York, and Educator Marketplace and you agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court in New York, New York to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, disputes, claims, or controversies concerning patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of the Educator Marketplace Sites shall not be subject to arbitration.

The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, governed by the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms of Use, and administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and fee information are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

Educator Marketplace shall bear the cost of any arbitration filing fees and arbitration fees for claims of up to $75,000, unless the arbitrator finds your claims, defenses or other fee-generating activity to be asserted or conducted for an improper purpose or frivolous. You are responsible for all other additional costs that you may incur in the arbitration including but not limited to attorney’s fees and expert witness costs unless Educator Marketplace is otherwise specifically required to pay such fees under applicable law. For claims that total more than $75,000, the AAA Rules will govern payment of filing fees and arbitration fees. The decision of the arbitrator will be in writing and binding and conclusive on Educator Marketplace and you, and judgment to enforce the decision may be entered by any court of competent jurisdiction. Educator Marketplace and you agree that dispositive motions, including without limitation motions to dismiss and motions for summary judgment, will be allowed in the arbitration. The arbitrator must follow these Terms of Use and can award the same damages and relief as a court, including injunctive or other equitable relief and attorney’s fees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Educator Marketplace and you agree not to seek any attorney’s fees and expert witness costs unless the arbitrator finds that a claim, defense or other fee- or cost-generating activity was asserted or conducted for an improper purpose or was frivolous. Educator Marketplace and you understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, Educator Marketplace and you would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. Educator Marketplace and you further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and that the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

If you or Educator Marketplace’s claim is solely for monetary relief of $10,000 or less and does not include a request for any type of equitable remedy, the party bringing the claim may choose whether the arbitration of the claim will be conducted solely based on documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing under the AAA Rules.

You or Educator Marketplace may choose to pursue a claim in small claims court where jurisdiction and venue over you and Educator Marketplace otherwise qualifies for such small claims court and where the claim does not include a request for any type of equitable relief.

You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the provisions requiring arbitration by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to Educator Marketplace by email to [email protected] AND by U.S. Mail to Agile Education Marketing, LLC 700 17^th St, Suite 2250, Denver CO 80202. The notice must be sent within 30 days of your first use of any of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and if you have an account on the Educator Marketplace Sites the notice must be sent from the email address we have on file for that account. If you do not opt out via this method, you will be bound to arbitrate disputes, claims, or controversies in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of the provisions requiring arbitration, Educator Marketplace will not be bound by them either.

If any clause within this Disputes/Arbitration section is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that specific clause will be severed from this section, and the remainder of its provisions will be given full force and effect. In any event, if for any reason a claim, dispute or controversy between Educator Marketplace and you is before a court (e.g., if the arbitration provisions are found unenforceable or if pursuant to these Terms of Use the matter is not subject to arbitration), Educator Marketplace and you agree to waive, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any trial by jury.

This Disputes/Arbitration section will also apply to any claims asserted by you against any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliated company of Educator Marketplace, and to any claims asserted by any of them against you, to the extent that any such claims arise out of or relate to these Terms of Use (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Educator Marketplace Sites, any person’s access to and/or use of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or the provision of content, products, services, and/or technology on or through the Educator Marketplace Sites.

15. Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS.

Educator Marketplace and you agree that Educator Marketplace and you will resolve any disputes, claims or controversies on an individual basis, and that any claims arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Educator Marketplace Sites, any person’s access to and/or use of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or the provision of content, products, services, and/or technology on or through the Educator Marketplace Sites will be brought in an individual capacity, and not on behalf of, or as part of, any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. Educator Marketplace and you further agree that Educator Marketplace and you shall not participate in any consolidated, class, or representative proceeding (existing or future) brought by any third party arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), the Educator Marketplace Sites, any person’s access to and/or use of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or the provision of content, products, services, and/or technology on or through the Educator Marketplace Sites.

If any court or arbitrator determines that the class/consolidated/representative action waiver set forth in this section is void or unenforceable for any reason or that arbitration can proceed on a class, consolidated, or representative basis, then the disputes, claims or controversies will not be subject to arbitration and must be litigated in federal court located in Denver County, Colorado.

This Class Action Waiver section will also apply to any claims asserted by you against any present or future parent, subsidiary or affiliated company of Educator Marketplace, and to any claims asserted by any of them against you, to the extent that any such claims arise out of or relate to these Terms of Use (such as with respect to their validity or enforceability), and/or the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or any person’s access to and/or use of the Educator Marketplace Sites, and/or the provision of content, services, and/or technology on or through the Educator Marketplace Sites.

16. Changes to These Terms of Use

Educator Marketplace may amend these Terms of Use (including any Service Terms) at any time and at Educator Marketplace’s sole discretion by posting the updated version on www.educatormarketplace.com . Unless you reject the update as described below, you will be deemed to accept the changes and they will take effect at the earlier of:

b. your acceptance of them via a click-through process or some other method that we specify.

No other rejection method is valid.

If you reject the update as described above, then the last version of the Terms of Use to which you and Educator Marketplace agreed will continue to apply without modification, but then:

At any time, Educator Marketplace may in its sole discretion close your account, revoking your access to the Educator Marketplace Sites or your ability to make purchases on the Educator Marketplace Sites.
If Educator Marketplace has not closed your account, Educator Marketplace reserves the right to propose a further update to the Terms of Use by posting it to www.Educator Marketplace.com.

If you accept it, then the further update will apply to and between you and Educator Marketplace effective the date of your acceptance. Rejection will be handled as described in this section.
If Educator Marketplace has not closed your account, Educator Marketplace may choose to condition your use of new or changed features or functionality on the Educator Marketplace Sites, or your use of a new Educator Marketplace Site, on your acceptance of the updated Terms of Use, and your use of those features, functionality or Site will constitute your acceptance of the updated Terms effective as of the date of such use.

In any case, updates to the Terms of Use apply on a going-forward basis as of the date they take effect.

17. Termination by Educator Marketplace

We may close your account at any time in our sole discretion. In no case will Educator Marketplace’s closure of your account, or reduction of your access to the Educator Marketplace Sites waive or affect any other right or relief to which Educator Marketplace may be entitled.

18. Changes to the Educator Marketplace Sites

We may make frequent changes to the Educator Marketplace Sites, including changes to the quantity and selection of products sold through the Educator Marketplace Sites.

19. Entire Agreement and Admissibility; Applicability to Sellers

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement and understanding between you and Educator Marketplace with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether oral or written, between the parties with respect to such subject matter. A printed version of these Terms of Use shall be admissible in judicial, arbitral or administrative proceedings to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.

If you access or use the Educator Marketplace Sites in your capacity as a registered Educator Marketplace retail partner (i.e., a seller who has registered with Educator Marketplace to sell products on the Educator Marketplace Sites), then the Educator Marketplace Retail Partner Agreement will apply to you in connection with such access and use, not these Terms of Use. When an Educator Marketplace partner or other Educator Marketplace supplier accesses or uses the Educator Marketplace Sites in any other capacity (e.g., as an Educator Marketplace Member), these Terms of Use apply and not the Educator Marketplace Retail Partner Agreement.

20. Miscellaneous

You may not assign or otherwise transfer these Terms of Use, by operation of law or otherwise, without Educator Marketplace’s prior written consent. Subject to the foregoing restriction, these Terms of Use will be binding on, inure to, and be enforceable against the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Educator Marketplace may assign these Terms of Use in its sole discretion by providing you notice of the same. For example, Educator Marketplace may unconditionally assign or otherwise transfer these Terms of Use to any successor in interest, such as an acquirer of an Educator Marketplace company (via merger, sale of stock, etc.) or a buyer of substantially all of its assets.
