BestSuggest Terms
IMPORTANT. PLEASE READ. These Terms contain a mandatory arbitration agreement as well as a class action waiver that will impact your rights. This means that if you have a claim against BestSuggest, you must submit your claim to binding arbitration instead of proceeding in court and your claim must be brought individually instead of as part of a class action. If you would like to opt out of this, please follow the steps in Section 11.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU MAY SEEK RELIEF UNDER THESE TERMS.
If you have any concerns with your use of the Website or Extension, please contact us at [email protected]. If we are unable to resolve your concern, please follow the steps below.
If you intend to file a claim or dispute, you must first send a written notice to BestSuggest detailing the nature and basis of your claim or dispute and the relief you are seeking. Such notice shall be sent by email to [email protected]. BestSuggest will respond to your notice by email within thirty (30) days. If BestSuggest’s response is unable to fully satisfy your claim, you may commence an arbitration proceeding.
Any claim or dispute between you and BestSuggest or its Related Companies arising out of or related to the Website, Extension, Terms, Privacy Policy, or otherwise shall be resolved by final, binding arbitration. Arbitration prevents you from litigating in court or from having a jury trial. This arbitration provision applies regardless of whether your claim or dispute involves breach of contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation, negligence, or violation of a law, statute, or other legal or equitable theory.
Any arbitration between you and BestSuggest or its Related Companies shall be conducted by one arbitrator exclusively in California. The arbitrator has the authority to grant any remedy that would be available in court, except that the arbitrator may not issue relief on a class-wide or group basis. Each party shall split the cost of the arbitrator. Any other related costs, including costs of its own counsel, witnesses, and experts shall be the responsibility of each respective party. The state or federal courts in California shall have exclusive jurisdiction and venue over any appeals or motions related to the arbitration award.
You agree that you may bring claims against BestSuggest and its Related Parties only in your individual capacity and not on a class-wide or group basis. This applies regardless of whether the dispute is heard in arbitration or court. You acknowledge and agree that these Terms specifically prohibit you from commencing legal proceedings against BestSuggest and its Related Parties as a representative of others or joining in any class action proceedings brought by another person.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THE MANDATORY ARBITRATION AGREEMENT OR THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER, YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THIS SECTION BY SENDING AN EMAIL TO [email protected] WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU FIRST ACCESSED OR USED THE WEBSITE AND/OR EXTENSION. Please include as much detail as possible in your Notice, including your full name, email address, and the exclusion you are requesting. Any untimely opt-outs will not be valid and you must then pursue your claim or dispute through individual arbitration as set forth in this Section.
12. Legal
Any claims or disputes between you and BestSuggest and its Related Companies shall be conducted in arbitration or courts of competent jurisdiction located in California. You hereby submit to and irrevocably waive all objections to such jurisdiction, forum, and venue. These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, irrespective of any principles of conflicts of law.
13. Miscellaneous
These Terms and the Privacy Policy constitute the entire agreement between you and BestSuggest related to your use and access of the Website and Extension.
