This section shall not be interpreted to exclude any liability that is prohibited from being excluded by applicable law. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, no claim, regardless of form, arising out of or in connection with this Agreement may be brought by You unless such claim is brought either (i) within one year after the cause of action has accrued or (ii) within the shortest period of time after the cause of action has accrued that may be legally contracted for in the applicable jurisdiction if a two year limitation would be legally unenforceable.

 

  1. Acknowledgement Of Inherently Dangerous Activities And Assumption Of Risk

 

Knowing the dangers, hazards, and risks of such activities, and in consideration of being permitted to participate in sports and other Pickup Sports activities, on behalf of You, Your heirs, minor children under your guardianship that participate in Pickup Sports activities and personal representative(s), You, do hereby agree to assume all the risks and responsibilities surrounding participation in sports and other activities, the transportation, and in any independent Pickup Sports activities undertaken as an adjunct thereto, and in advance do hereby release and forever discharge, waive, and covenant Pickup Sports, the Releasee from and against any and all liability for any harm, injury, damage, claims, demands, actions, causes of action, costs, and expenses of any nature whatsoever which You may have or which may hereafter accrue to You, arising out of or related to any loss, damage, or injury, including, but not limited to, suffering and death, that may be sustained by You or by any property belonging to You while in, on, upon, or in transit to or from the premises where the Pickup Sports or any adjunct to the Pickup Sports occurs or is being conducted.

  1. Licensed Application Support Services.

To the extent that Pickup Sports offers technical support services, such technical support shall be provided in Pickup Sports’ sole discretion without any guarantee or warranty of any kind. It is your responsibility to back up all your existing data, software and programs before receiving any technical support from Pickup Sports. Pickup Sports reserves the right to refuse, suspend or terminate any technical support, in its sole discretion.

  1. Third-party links and services

The Services may provide (1) information and content provided by third parties; (2) links to third-party websites or resources, such as sellers of goods and services; and (3) third-party products and services for sale directly to you. Pickup Sports is not responsible for the availability of such external sites or resources, and does not endorse and is not responsible or liable for (i) any content, advertising, products, or other materials on or available from such sites or resources, (ii) any errors or omissions in these websites or resources, or (iii) any information handling practices or other business practices of the operators of such sites or resources. You further acknowledge and agree that Pickup Sports shall not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with use of or reliance on any linked sites or resources. Your interactions with such third parties will be governed by the third parties’ own terms of service and privacy policies, and any other similar terms.

 

14. Dispute Resolution

(a) Arbitration. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through good-faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. Except for disputes relating to Pickup Sports’ intellectual property (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents) or if you opt out of this agreement to arbitrate, all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement and your use of the Service shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its Commercial Arbitration Rules or applicable Georgia laws. The arbitrator, and not any court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court; provided, however, that the arbitrator will not have authority to award damages, remedies, or awards that conflict with this Agreement. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, Pickup Sports will pay the additional cost. You and Pickup Sports hereby expressly waive trial by jury. You also agree not to participate in claims brought in a private attorney general or representative capacity, or consolidated claims involving another person’s account, if Pickup Sports is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

(b) The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They 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.

(c) Exception—Litigation of Small-Claims-Court Claims. Notwithstanding the parties’ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may also seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.

(d) Thirty-Day Right to Opt Out. You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration- and class-action-waiver provisions set forth in this section by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: Pickup Sports, LLC, 505 Rippling Water Lane, Johns Creek, GA 30097, United States. The notice must be sent within 30 days of registering to use the Service; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with this Agreement. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Pickup Sports also will not be bound by them. In addition, if you elect to opt out of these arbitration provisions, Pickup Sports may terminate your use of the Service.

(e) Time Limitation on Claims. You agree that any claim you may have arising out of or related to your relationship with Pickup Sports and this Agreement must be filed within one year after such claim arose; otherwise, your claim is permanently barred.

  1. Choice of Law and Jurisdiction.

This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State Georgia in the United States, without giving effect to any choice-of-law rules that may require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Any disputes arising under this Agreement shall be settled exclusively in the Fulton County, Georgia state courts or United States federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia. The parties hereby submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts for the purpose of resolving any dispute under this Agreement.

  1. Severability/Reformation.

 If any provision of this Agreement is found to be void or unenforceable, it will not affect the validity of any other provision of this Agreement and those provisions will remain valid and enforceable according to their terms. To the extent that an unenforceable provision may be reformed to be enforceable by a court of law, such provision will be deemed to be so reformed in this Agreement.

  1. Other Rights Reserved.

All rights not specifically granted in this Agreement are reserved by Pickup Sports.

  1. Entire Agreement.

You acknowledge that You have read this Agreement, understand it and agree to be bound by its terms and conditions. You further agree that it is the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between us which supersedes any proposal or prior agreement, oral or written, and any other communications between us relating to the subject matter of this Agreement.
