16. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

16.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.

16.2 Informal Resolution First

Before initiating arbitration, you must send a written Pre-Arbitration Notice to:

TwinMind (ThirdEar AI, Inc.)

251 Little Falls Drive

Wilmington, DE 19808

Email: legal@twinmind.com

The Notice must include:

(a) Your name and contact information

(b) Description of the dispute

(c) The relief sought

We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally for 60 days before arbitration. Compliance with this process is mandatory and a condition precedent to arbitration.

16.3 Binding Arbitration

If informal resolution fails, disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules.

  • Location: Santa Clara County, California (or by phone/video if agreed)

  • Language: English

  • Arbitrator: Single arbitrator

  • Decision: Final and binding; judgment may be entered in any court with jurisdiction

16.4 Arbitration Fees

The AAA Rules govern fees. TwinMind will pay all arbitration filing fees for claims under $10,000 unless the arbitrator finds your claim frivolous.

16.5 CLASS ACTION WAIVER

YOU AND TWINMIND AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

The arbitrator may NOT consolidate claims or preside over any class or representative proceeding.

16.6 Mass Arbitration Procedures

If 25 or more similar disputes are filed against TwinMind by the same or coordinated counsel ("Mass Filing"), the following procedures apply:

Stage One: Each side selects 25 disputes to proceed as bellwether arbitrations. Remaining disputes are stayed. After Stage One, parties participate in mediation (TwinMind pays mediator fees).

Stage Two: If unresolved, each side selects 50 additional disputes. After Stage Two, another mediation session occurs.

Stage Three: Remaining disputes proceed in batches through mutually agreed process.

Statutes of limitations are tolled during Mass Filing procedures.

16.7 Exceptions to Arbitration

Either party may bring an individual action:

  • In small claims court (if eligible)

  • To seek injunctive or equitable relief to prevent unauthorized use, abuse, or infringement of intellectual property

16.8 Opt-Out

You may opt out of arbitration (but not other Terms provisions) by sending written notice to legal@twinmind.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, including:

  • Your full name

  • Email address associated with your account

  • Clear statement that you wish to opt out

If you opt out, disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts in Santa Clara County, California.

16.9 Severability

If the class action waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, only that claim may proceed in court while remaining claims proceed in arbitration.

16.10 Future Changes

If we materially change this arbitration section, you may reject the change by sending notice within 30 days. You would then be bound by the prior version.

17. General Provisions

17.1 Entire Agreement

These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and any referenced documents) constitute the entire agreement between you and TwinMind regarding the Services.

17.2 Severability

If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

17.3 No Waiver

Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

17.4 Assignment

You may NOT assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or by operation of law.

17.5 Notices

We may send notices via email, in-app messages, or posting on our website. You may send notices to legal@twinmind.com or our mailing address.

17.6 Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for failures due to circumstances beyond reasonable control (natural disasters, war, terrorism, pandemics, internet failures, government actions).

17.7 Export Compliance

You may NOT use the Services in violation of U.S. export laws or in embargoed countries (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Crimea region). You represent that you are not on any U.S. government restricted parties list.

17.8 U.S. Government Users

The Services are "Commercial Items" as defined in 48 C.F.R. §2.101. Government users receive only the rights granted to all other users under these Terms.

1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112

Sacramento, CA 95834

17.10 Independent Contractors

The parties are independent contractors. Nothing creates an employment, partnership, or agency relationship.

17.11 Modifications to Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. For material changes that adversely affect your rights, we will provide notice at least 14 days before they take effect via email or in-app notification. For minor changes, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of these Terms. Your continued use of the Services after any changes constitutes acceptance. We encourage you to review these Terms periodically.

  • Beta Features are provided "as is" without warranties

16. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

16.1 Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.

16.2 Informal Resolution First

Before initiating arbitration, you must send a written Pre-Arbitration Notice to:

TwinMind (ThirdEar AI, Inc.)

251 Little Falls Drive

Wilmington, DE 19808

Email: legal@twinmind.com

The Notice must include:

(a) Your name and contact information

(b) Description of the dispute

(c) The relief sought

We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally for 60 days before arbitration. Compliance with this process is mandatory and a condition precedent to arbitration.

16.3 Binding Arbitration

If informal resolution fails, disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules.

  • Location: Santa Clara County, California (or by phone/video if agreed)

  • Language: English

  • Arbitrator: Single arbitrator

  • Decision: Final and binding; judgment may be entered in any court with jurisdiction

16.4 Arbitration Fees

The AAA Rules govern fees. TwinMind will pay all arbitration filing fees for claims under $10,000 unless the arbitrator finds your claim frivolous.

16.5 CLASS ACTION WAIVER

YOU AND TWINMIND AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

The arbitrator may NOT consolidate claims or preside over any class or representative proceeding.

16.6 Mass Arbitration Procedures

If 25 or more similar disputes are filed against TwinMind by the same or coordinated counsel ("Mass Filing"), the following procedures apply:

Stage One: Each side selects 25 disputes to proceed as bellwether arbitrations. Remaining disputes are stayed. After Stage One, parties participate in mediation (TwinMind pays mediator fees).

Stage Two: If unresolved, each side selects 50 additional disputes. After Stage Two, another mediation session occurs.

Stage Three: Remaining disputes proceed in batches through mutually agreed process.

Statutes of limitations are tolled during Mass Filing procedures.

16.7 Exceptions to Arbitration

Either party may bring an individual action:

  • In small claims court (if eligible)

  • To seek injunctive or equitable relief to prevent unauthorized use, abuse, or infringement of intellectual property

16.8 Opt-Out

You may opt out of arbitration (but not other Terms provisions) by sending written notice to legal@twinmind.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms, including:

  • Your full name

  • Email address associated with your account

  • Clear statement that you wish to opt out

If you opt out, disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts in Santa Clara County, California.

16.9 Severability

If the class action waiver is found unenforceable for a particular claim, only that claim may proceed in court while remaining claims proceed in arbitration.

16.10 Future Changes

If we materially change this arbitration section, you may reject the change by sending notice within 30 days. You would then be bound by the prior version.

17. General Provisions

17.1 Entire Agreement

These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and any referenced documents) constitute the entire agreement between you and TwinMind regarding the Services.

17.2 Severability

If any provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.

17.3 No Waiver

Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of our right to do so later.

17.4 Assignment

You may NOT assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, or by operation of law.

17.5 Notices

We may send notices via email, in-app messages, or posting on our website. You may send notices to legal@twinmind.com or our mailing address.

17.6 Force Majeure

Neither party is liable for failures due to circumstances beyond reasonable control (natural disasters, war, terrorism, pandemics, internet failures, government actions).

17.7 Export Compliance

You may NOT use the Services in violation of U.S. export laws or in embargoed countries (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Crimea region). You represent that you are not on any U.S. government restricted parties list.

17.10 Independent Contractors

The parties are independent contractors. Nothing creates an employment, partnership, or agency relationship.

17.11 Modifications to Terms

We may modify these Terms at any time. For material changes that adversely affect your rights, we will provide notice at least 14 days before they take effect via email or in-app notification. For minor changes, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of these Terms. Your continued use of the Services after any changes constitutes acceptance.
