Informal Resolution: Before initiating any formal dispute, you agree to contact us at thesoapyapp@gmail.com and provide a written description of the dispute and your desired resolution. We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally within 30 days.

Binding Arbitration: If informal resolution fails, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising from or relating to these Terms or the App shall be resolved by binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court. The arbitration shall be conducted in California. The arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

If this class action waiver is found unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the arbitration agreement shall not apply in that jurisdiction, and the dispute shall be resolved in court.

Exceptions: Either party may seek emergency injunctive relief in court to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration, without waiving the right to arbitrate.

Waiver: Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of SOAPy.
