Notification of Infringement

Notice is specifically given that Hotlap is not responsible for the content placed on its website by parties other than Hotlap employees or agents. Hotlap endeavors to prevent the placement of illegal or infringing property on its App, but cannot prevent all occasions of said placement. Hotlap appreciates the help of its users in identifying any illegal or infringing property. We request that you provide us with notifications of any infringement of which you have knowledge.

XI. Dispute Resolution

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 the Hotlap's 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 services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with its provisions and procedures for consumer-related disputes, excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. 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. You and Hotlap 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 Hotlap is a party to the proceeding. This dispute resolution provision will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act.

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.

XII. Choice of Law and Forum

Any action related to the Terms, Content, the Services, and your relationship with the Hotlap shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws principles AND WILL SPECIFICALLY NOT BE GOVERNED BY THE UNITED NATIONS CONVENTIONS ON CONTRACTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL SALE OF GOODS, IF OTHERWISE APPLICABLE. Subject to the Section entitled "Dispute Resolution", the parties irrevocably consent to bring any action to enforce this Agreement in the federal or state courts embracing Los Angeles, California and you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts embracing Los Angeles, California. If any party hereto brings any suit or action against another for relief, declaratory or otherwise, arising out of these Terms, the prevailing party will have and recover against the other party, in addition to all court costs and disbursements, such sum as the court may adjudge to be reasonable attorneys' fees. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law, the parties agree that any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of the services or the Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.
