Tarjimly provides a web app and web-based technology platform that enable users to request for language assistance, either over-the-phone or in person or with document (the "Platform"). Independent contractors can access the Platform and receive language assistance requests. Unless otherwise agreed by Tarjimly in a separate written agreement with you, the Services are made available solely for your personal, noncommercial use. You acknowledge that your ability to obtain language assistance through the use of the Services does not establish Tarjimly as a language service provider.
Tarjimly DOES NOT PROVIDE LANGUAGE SERVICES. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS (EACH "Translator") OFFER LANGUAGE SERVICES THROUGH USE OF THE SERVICE. Tarjimly OFFERS INFORMATION AND A METHOD TO OBTAIN LANGUAGE SERVICES, BUT DOES NOT AND DOES NOT INTEND TO PROVIDE LANGUAGE SERVICES OR ACT IN ANY WAY AS A LANGUAGE SERVICE PROVIDER, AND HAS NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY Translator.
As provided in greater detail in these Terms, you agree and acknowledge these material Terms:

The Service is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind, and Tarjimly’s liability to you is limited; and

YOU AGREE TO WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under this contract (except for matters that may be taken to small claims court). Your rights will be determined by a NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR and NOT a judge or jury, and your claims cannot be brought as a class action.

You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in whole or in part at any time to any entity without your notice or consent. Any purported assignment by you in violation of this section shall be void.
These Terms are effective until terminated by you or Tarjimly as described below. Your rights under these Terms will terminate automatically with or without notice from Tarjimly if you fail to comply with any of these Terms (including by violating any license restriction contained in these Terms). In addition, Tarjimly may in its sole discretion terminate your user account on the Service or suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time without notice. We also reserve the right to modify or discontinue the Service at any time (including by limiting or discontinuing certain features of the Service) without notice to you. We will have no liability whatsoever on account of any change to the Service or any suspension or termination of your access to or use of the Service. You may terminate these Terms at any time by closing your account, and ceasing use of the Service.
Tarjimly is not a party to, has no involvement or interest in, makes no representations or warranties as to, and has no responsibility or liability with respect to any communications, transactions, interactions, disputes or any relations whatsoever between you and any other user, any Translator or other third party. Disputes between a user and Tarjimly are subject to this Section 17.
In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Tarjimly in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Tarjimly agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms.
YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND Tarjimly ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
Despite the provisions of the paragraph directly above, we both agree that nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: Bring an individual action in small claims court; Pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; Seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or To file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.
Any arbitration between you and Tarjimly will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Tarjimly at support tarjimly.org.
A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail ("Notice").

The Notice must:
We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Tarjimly may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Tarjimly must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any.
If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Tarjimly will pay you the highest of the following:
If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Tarjimly will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules.
Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in San Francisco County, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted:
If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Tarjimly for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based.
The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.
YOU AND Tarjimly 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 PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Tarjimly agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
If Tarjimly makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to Tarjimly’ address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Tarjimly’ address for Notice, in which case your account with Tarjimly will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.
If Section 16.7 is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Section 16 is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Section 16 will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 20 will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
We reserve the right to update or modify the Terms at any time without prior notice, and such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted through the Service, except as set forth below. These Terms identify the date of last update. Your use of the Service following any such change constitutes your agreement to be bound by the modified Terms of Service. In the case of material changes to these Terms, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the change, such as through sending an email to any address you may have used to register for an account, through a pop-up window on the Service, or other similar mechanism.
Material changes to these Terms will be effective upon the earlier of:
Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of the Terms in place at the time the dispute arose. We encourage you to review these Terms frequently to stay informed of the latest modifications.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under these Terms, you and Tarjimly agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within San Francisco County, California for the purpose of litigating any dispute. We operate the Service from our offices in California, and we make no representation that materials included in the Service are appropriate or available for use in other locations. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you, Tarjimly or any third-party provider as a result of the Terms or use of the Service.
If any provision of the Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent under law. The failure of Tarjimly to enforce any right or provision in this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by Tarjimly in writing.
This Agreement comprises the entire agreement between you and Tarjimly and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding the subject matter contained in these Terms.
