11. Agreement to Arbitrate and Class Action and Judge or Jury Trial Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH US, LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF, AND INCLUDES A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL RIGHTS.

Most concerns can be resolved quickly by contacting ROCS Customer Support at (866) 491-7627 or support@rocs.org. You and we agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute through good-faith informal discussion (the "Informal Dispute Resolution Process"). The statute of limitations and any applicable filing deadlines will be tolled during this process. If we are unable to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of initiation, the dispute will proceed to binding arbitration or small claims court as described below.

11.1 Arbitration Agreement

WE (YOU AND ROCKET SCHOOL MANAGEMENT, LLC D/B/A ROCS) EACH AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO THESE TERMS, THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US, OR OUR EDUCATIONAL SERVICES AND PRODUCTS WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION OR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO BILLING DISPUTES AND THRESHOLD QUESTIONS OF ARBITRABILITY, EXCEPT THAT EITHER PARTY MAY SEEK INJUNCTIVE OR EQUITABLE RELIEF IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION FOR CLAIMS RELATING TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT OR MISUSE.

Arbitration proceedings may be initiated by either party by sending a written request to our registered agent. All disputes will be arbitrated by the American Arbitration Association (AAA). Claims under $75,000 will be governed by the AAA Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. Claims over $75,000 will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules. AAA rules are available at www.adr.org. If you cannot afford AAA fees and cannot obtain a waiver, ROCS will cover those fees provided you complied with the Informal Dispute Resolution Process.

11.2 Class Action Waiver

ALL PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL BE CONDUCTED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. NEITHER YOU NOR ROCS MAY BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING.

11.3 Judge or Jury Trial Waiver

BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU AND ROCS WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JUDGE OR JURY. ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH BINDING ARBITRATION UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN THESE TERMS.

11.4 Small Claims

Either party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court for disputes that fall within that court's jurisdiction, provided the action remains in small claims court and is not transferred, removed, or appealed to a different court.

11.5 Governing Law and Venue

This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Kansas, without regard to conflict of law principles. Arbitration may be conducted by telephone, videoconference, written submission, or in person at a location reasonably convenient to you within the United States, as agreed upon by the parties.

12. Termination

ROCS reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access to our website or services at our sole discretion, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you are violating these Terms and Conditions, applicable law, or the policies of our partner school districts. Upon termination, your right to use our services will immediately cease.

13. Governing Law

These Terms and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Kansas, USA, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. To the extent any dispute is not subject to arbitration, you consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Kansas.
