We make no guarantee of the accuracy, correctness or completeness of any information on the Website, and we are not responsible or liable for: (a) errors of omission arising from the use of such information; (b) failures, delays or interruptions in the delivery of any content or service within the Website; and (b) any defamatory, libelous or unlawful material contained within the Website, including within user generated content.

Indemnification

You agree to defend and indemnify us and our officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claim, cause of action or demand, including, without limitation, legal fees brought by third parties as a result of: (a) your use of the Website; (b) your breach of this agreement; (c) your violation or alleged violation of any law, rule or regulation related to the Website or its services; or (d) your violation or alleged violation of any third party’s intellectual property rights.

Disputes

You agree that if you have a dispute or claim with us, you will first contact us by email at info@thirdopinion.io and attempt to informally resolve any dispute you have with us. If we are unable to resolve your dispute informally, then both of us agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief, and for small claims, both of which are addressed below) arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided in these Terms of Use.

Unless you and we agree otherwise, the arbitration will be conducted in the county where you reside. The AAA rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees and charges. We will pay the arbitration fees for claims less than $75,000, provided your claim is not frivolous, as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b). If you receive an arbitration award that is more favorable than any offer we make to resolve your claim, we will pay you $1,000 in addition to the award. We agree to not request an award of our attorneys' fees and costs in connection with the arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

The arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above will not apply to claims that seek injunctive or other equitable relief, including, without limitation, relating to unauthorized access, use or abuse of the Website, or intellectual property infringement (collectively “Equitable Relief”). Any claim that seeks Equitable Relief will be brought and maintained in the federal or state courts of Cook County, Illinois USA, and both of us unconditionally consent to venue and personal jurisdiction of such courts. The arbitration and the informal dispute-resolution process will also not apply to claims that qualify and are within the jurisdictional limits of the small claims court of Cook County, Illinois, USA, or the United States county where you reside. Any such small claim may be brought in Cook County, Illinois, USA or in the United States county where you reside.

You unconditionally agree to only resolve your claims and disputes with us on an individual basis and that you will not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative legal action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations are not permitted.

If our agreement to arbitrate is found to not apply to you or your claim, we both agree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the federal or state courts of Cook County, Illinois, USA, and both of us unconditionally consent to venue and personal jurisdiction of such courts.

Controlling Law

These Terms of Use will be governed by Illinois law without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law.

Entire Agreement

These Terms of Use constitute the entire agreement between you and us with respect to the subject matter of these Terms of Use and supersede and replace any other prior or contemporaneous agreements or terms and conditions applicable to the subject matter of these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use create no third-party beneficiary rights.

Waiver, Severability & Assignment

Our failure to enforce a provision of these Terms of Use is not a waiver of our right to do so later. If a provision of these Terms of Use is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights or obligations under these Terms of Use, and any such attempt will be void. We reserve the right to assign our rights and duties to any of our affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the Website.
