Dispute Resolution
1. Complaints. In the event of a dispute relating to your access to and use of the Website or this Agreement, you and Apollo Care agree to seek an amicable agreement and to communicate with each other all necessary information to this end.
2. Internal Dispute Resolution and Mediation. If any dispute or claim arises between the you and Apollo Care in connection with this Agreement, you and Apollo Care agree to discuss and seek to resolve such dispute or claim in good faith through internal dispute resolution. If you and Apollo Care are unsuccessful in resolving any such dispute or claim, either party may seek to submit the dispute or claim to arbitration by sending notice of the same to the other party.
3. Arbitration. If the parties’ good-faith attempts to resolve a dispute or claim by internal dispute resolution, such dispute or claim shall be resolved through final, binding arbitration under the substantive and procedural requirements of the Federal Arbitration Act. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator chosen by the parties, and conducted in a location mutually agreed to by the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, chosen by the arbitrator. The arbitration shall be conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Should any party refuse or neglect to choose an arbitrator or otherwise sincerely and in good faith participate in the arbitration process, then the arbitrator is empowered to proceed with one side alone. The parties agree that the arbitrator, and not a court, shall have exclusive jurisdiction over the interpretation, validity, and scope of this arbitration agreement. Except as expressly provided otherwise below, no party shall file or maintain any lawsuit in any court against the other, and the parties agree that any suit filed in violation of this arbitration agreement shall be dismissed by the court in favor of an arbitration conducted pursuant to this agreement. Each party shall bear its own expenses and the parties shall equally share the arbitration filing fee, arbitrator’s compensation, facilities fees, and other administrative fees. However, if the claim or defense of any party is upheld by the arbitrator in all material respects, then the prevailing party shall be promptly reimbursed by the other party for its reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, the reasonable costs of its experts and witnesses, and all other fees, costs and expenses of the arbitration. Any award of the arbitrator shall be in writing and shall state the reasons for the award. Any remedy available from a court under the law shall be available in the arbitration. Judgment upon an award may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction. Any judgment therein may be enforced in any court having jurisdiction. The parties, their representatives and participants and the arbitrator shall hold the existence, content and result of the arbitration in confidence, except to the limited extent necessary to enforce a final settlement agreement or to obtain or enforce a judgment on an arbitration decision and award. If any provision of this arbitration agreement is adjudged to be void or otherwise unenforceable, in whole or in part, such adjudication shall not affect the validity of the remainder of the agreement. If this arbitration agreement is declared unenforceable and cannot be administered, interpreted, or modified to be enforceable, the parties agree any such dispute shall be commenced and maintained exclusively in the state or federal courts in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the parties each consent to the personal jurisdiction of said courts. Any dispute or claim shall be brought solely in the party’s individual capacity, and not as a representative, private attorney general or class member in any purported class action, representative proceeding, mass action or consolidated action.
4. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT BY ENTERING INTO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, ALL PARTIES ARE GIVING UP THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND, IF APPLICABLE, ANY RIGHTS THEY MAY HAVE TO BRING ANY CLAIMS ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, CONSOLIDATED OR MASS ACTION BASIS.
5. Equitable Remedies and Immediate Relief. It is specifically agreed that a breach of the provisions of this Agreement concerning the use and/or non-disclosure of proprietary or confidential information may result in irreparable injury for which there is no adequate remedy at law. Accordingly, and without prejudice to a party’s remedies available at law, a party who claims such a breach will be entitled to seek specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies without proof of actual damages or the posting of a bond. Nothing herein shall any party from seeking immediate injunctive relief pursuant to the Emergency Measures of Protection procedures in the AAA Commercial Rules if, in its judgment, such relief is necessary to protect its interests prior to utilizing or completing this dispute resolution process. Such remedy shall be in addition to all other remedies, including money damages, available to such party at law or in equity.

Such license includes incorporating the content, in whole or in part, into any new Apollo Care feature, product, or service. You will remain responsible for the accuracy, copyright compliance, legality, decency, and all other aspects of such submitted material.
Severability. If any part of the Agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable under applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision, and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in effect.
Non-waiver. No failure or delay in enforcing any provision, exercising any option, or requiring performance shall be construed to be a waiver of that or any other right in connection with the Agreement.
Assignment. You may not assign, by operation of law or otherwise, any rights or delegate any duties under the Agreement to any third party without prior written consent by Apollo Care. Any purported assignment lacking such consent will be void at its inception. Apollo Care may assign all or part of its rights and/or delegate all or part of its duties under the Agreement to any party, at any time, and in its sole discretion, upon notice of assignment by posting such notice on our Website.
