Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the websites shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Tennessee in each case located in the City of Nashville and County of Davidson, to whose personal jurisdiction the parties are subject.

Note that these Terms contain a mandatory arbitration provision that requires the use of arbitration on an individual basis and limits the remedies available to you in the event of certain disputes. Please review the arbitration agreement carefully. By accepting these Terms, you expressly acknowledge that you have read and understand the arbitration agreement.
Arbitration Agreement
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH BTC AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
Binding Arbitration
Except for any disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, demands or proceedings (collectively, “Disputes”) in which either party seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court or seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, you and BTC agree: (a) to waive your and BTC’s respective rights to have any and all Disputes arising from or related to these Terms, the Services, or the Content resolved in a court; and (b) to waive your and BTC’s respective rights to a jury trial. Instead, you and BTC agree to arbitrate Disputes through binding arbitration (which is the referral of a Dispute to one or more persons charged with reviewing the Dispute and making a final and binding determination to resolve it instead of having the Dispute decided by a judge or jury in court).
No Class Arbitrations, Class Actions or Representative Actions
You and BTC agree that any Dispute arising out of or related to these Terms, the Services, or the Content is personal to you and BTC and that such Dispute will be resolved solely through individual arbitration and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding. You and BTC agree that there will be no class arbitration or arbitration in which an individual attempts to resolve a Dispute as a representative of another individual or group of individuals. Further, you and BTC agree that a Dispute cannot be brought as a class or other type of representative action, whether within or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other individual or group of individuals.
Federal Arbitration Act
You and BTC agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this arbitration agreement shall be both substantively and procedurally governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law.
Notice: Informal Dispute Resolution
You and BTC agree that each party will notify the other party in writing of any arbitrable or small claims Dispute within 30 days of the date it arises, so that the parties can attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute informally. Notice to BTC shall be sent to contact@btcmedia.org. Your notice must include: (a) your name, postal address, telephone number, the email address you use or used for your BTC registration and, if different, an email address at which you can be contacted; (b) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute; and (c) the specific relief that you are seeking. Our notice to you will be sent electronically in accordance with these Terms and will include: (x) our name, postal address, telephone number and an email address at which we can be contacted with respect to the Dispute; (y) a description in reasonable detail of the nature or basis of the Dispute; and (z) the specific relief that we are seeking. If you and BTC cannot agree how to resolve the Dispute within 30 days after the date notice is received by the applicable party, then either you or BTC may, as appropriate and in accordance with this arbitration agreement, commence an arbitration proceeding or, to the extent specifically provided for above, file a claim in court.
Process
Except for Disputes in which either party seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court or seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, including, without limitation, copyrights, trademarks, trade names, logos, trade secrets or patents, you and BTC agree that any Dispute must be commenced or filed by you or BTC within one (1) year of the date the Dispute arose, otherwise the underlying claim is permanently barred (which means that you and BTC will no longer have the right to assert such claim regarding the Dispute). You and BTC agree that: (a) any arbitration will occur in Davidson County, Tennessee; (b) arbitration will be conducted confidentially by a single arbitrator in accordance with the rules of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are hereby incorporated by reference; and (c) that the state or federal courts of the State of Tennessee and the United States, respectively, sitting in Davidson County, Tennessee, have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award. You may also litigate a Dispute in the small claims court located in the county of your billing address if the Dispute meets the requirements to be heard in small claims court.
Authority of Arbitrator
As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the applicable JAMS rules, the arbitrator will have: (a) the exclusive authority and jurisdiction to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding a Dispute, including the determination of whether a Dispute is arbitrable; and (b) the authority to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.
Severability
The Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures ("Rules") of JAMS and additional information about JAMS are available on the JAMS website. By agreeing to be bound by these Terms, you either: (a) acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the Rules of JAMS; or (b) waive your opportunity to read the Rules of JAMS and any claim that the Rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.
Opt-Out Right
You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Dispute Resolution section by writing to: contact@btcmedia.org. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve Disputes in accordance with the provisions regarding governing law and venue as described in this Agreement.
Additional Terms & Conditions of Use Specific to Some BTC Websites
All general BTC Terms and Conditions of Use (above) as well as our Privacy Policy apply to all BTC Websites, so be sure you have read and understand these terms and policy because your use of any BTC Website binds you to our terms as described above, and it’s important you are informed about the use of your data.

This shall be the Merchant's sole remedy for any failure to execute the Merchant listing.
Merchant Responsibility for Losses

User and its subcontractors are not employees of Company, and will not be entitled to any rights or benefits provided to Company employees, waive any right to them, and promise never to claim them. User has no authority to bind Company and Contractor agrees to not hold itself as an employee, agent, or authorized representative of Company. USER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT USER: (1) HAS FULL POWER AND AUTHORITY TO ACCEPT THESE TERMS AND PERFORM OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER; (2) IS AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD; AND (3) WILL COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS IN PERFORMING TASKS UNDER THESE TERMS.
If User undertakes to perform a Task via Company’s Services, User acknowledges and agrees that: (1) User retains the sole right to determine the manner in which a Task is performed, including where a Task is performed, and when a Task is performed; (2) User will provide all devices and other materials that are necessary to complete the Task, and be responsible for the acquisition, cost and maintenance of such devices and materials; and (3) User will not direct or control User generally or in User performance under these Terms or of a specific Task. User may delegate or subcontract any of its obligations under this Schedule. User will remain liable for all subcontracted obligations and all acts or omissions of its subcontractors. User agrees that it will not use scripts, robots, or other automated methods to complete Tasks or query Company's Services.
User retains sole discretion on whether to perform, or not perform, any Tasks that Company makes available to User via the Services or platform. User further acknowledges that: (a) User may engage in any other occupation or business; and (b) Company has no right to restrict User from engaging in any other occupation or business activity.
Company will pay User via increasing User's account balance for the payment amount displayed in each Task received by User upon full completion of the Task (the "User Payment”). The User Payment is a transaction between User and Company for User’s completion of a Task received through Company’s platform. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that the User Payment is the only payment that User will receive in connection with a completed Task.
Taxes
User is responsible and required to complete all tax registration obligations and calculate all tax liabilities arising from User’s completion of Tasks via Company’s Services. Upon Company’s reasonable request, User agrees to provide all relevant tax information in connection with performing tasks via Company’s Services.
Task Content
User agrees that any work product created during the performance and completion of a Task is deemed a “work made for hire” for the benefit of Company to the extent permitted by applicable law. To the extent any such rights do not vest in Company under applicable law, User hereby assigns or exclusively grants (without the right to any compensation) all right, title and interest, including all intellectual property rights, to such work product to Company.
