831 STORIES TERMS OF SERVICE

Last Updated: March 2, 2026

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply to your access to and use of (i) the website located at 831stories.com (or any successor links) and all associated web pages, websites, and social media pages (the “Site”) provided by 831 Stories, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (“831 Stories”, “we”, “our” or “us”), (ii) online services (including the Site, together the “Services”) and (iii) products accessible via the Site (the “Products”).

BY AGREEING TO THESE TERMS, YOU AND 831 STORIES AGREE TO RESOLVE MOST DISPUTES SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION, ANY OTHER KIND OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING, OR BY JURY TRIAL. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH 831 STORIES, YOU MAY OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION BY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS PROVIDED IN SECTION 20(j). Further, terms of sale in Section 7 and the limited warranty set forth in Section 8 will apply with respect to any Products that you use. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use our Products or Services.

We may indicate that different or additional terms, conditions, guidelines, policies, or rules apply in relation to some of our Products or Services (“Supplemental Terms”). Any Supplemental Terms become part of your agreement with us if you use the applicable Products or Services, and if there is a conflict between these Terms and the Supplemental Terms, the Supplemental Terms will control for that conflict.

We may make changes to these Terms. The “Last Updated” date above indicates when these Terms were last changed. If we make future changes, we may provide you with notice of such changes, such as by sending an email, providing a notice through our Services, or updating the date at the top of these Terms. Unless we say otherwise in our notice, the amended Terms will be effective immediately, and your continued use of our Products or Services after we provide such notice will confirm your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the amended Terms, you must immediately stop using our Products and Services.

User Content

Our Services may allow you and other users to directly create, post, store, and share content, including works of authorship, text, photos, videos, and other materials through the Site or your Account (collectively, “User Content”). When you share User Content on or through our Services, you understand that your User Content and any associated information (such as your name) may be visible to others. If you choose to make any of your information publicly available through the Services, you do so at your own risk.
Except for the license you grant below, as between you and 831 Stories, you retain all rights in and to your User Content, excluding any portion of the Services included in your User Content. You grant 831 Stories and our end users a perpetual, irrevocable, nonexclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, fully paid, and sublicensable (through multiple tiers) license to use, reproduce, publish, translate, create derivative works from, distribute, and publicly perform and display your User Content and any name, username or likeness provided in connection with your User Content in all media formats and channels now known or later developed without compensation to you or any third party.

You may not create, post, store, or share any User Content for which you do not have all the rights necessary to grant us the license described above, and you represent and warrant that your User Content, and our use of such User Content as permitted by these Terms, will not violate any rights of any person or entity, including any third-party rights, or cause injury to any person or entity. You may not create, post, store, or share any User Content that:

Is unlawful, libelous, defamatory, obscene, pornographic, indecent, lewd, suggestive, harassing, threatening, invasive of privacy or publicity rights, abusive, inflammatory, or fraudulent;

Enforcement of this Section 4 is solely at 831 Stories' discretion, and failure to enforce this section in some instances does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce it in other instances. This Section 4 does not create any right or private right of action on the part of any third party or any reasonable expectation that the Services will not contain any content that is prohibited by these Terms or that objectionable material will be promptly removed after it has been posted.

We do not undertake to review all User Content, and we expressly disclaim any duty or obligation to undertake any monitoring or review of any User Content. Although we have no obligation to screen, edit, or monitor User Content, we may:

Delete or remove User Content or refuse to post any User Content at any time and for any reason with or without notice, including without limitation for any violations of applicable law or these Terms;
Terminate or suspend your access to all or part of the Products or Services, temporarily or permanently, if your User Content is reasonably likely, in our sole determination, to violate applicable law or these Terms;
Take any action with respect to your User Content that is necessary or appropriate, in 831 Stories' sole discretion, to ensure compliance with applicable law and these Terms, or to protect 831 Stories' rights, or to protect any third-party rights, including third-party intellectual property and privacy rights (e.g., providing information to copyright owners in furtherance of Digital Millennium Copyright Act takedown requests); and
As permitted by law, cooperate fully with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity or other information of anyone posting any User Content on or through the Services.

Enforcement of this Section 5 is solely at 831 Stories' discretion, and failure to enforce this section in some instances does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce it in other instances.

Product Listings

The Services may make available listings, descriptions, and images of Products, as well as references and links to Products (“Listings”). Such Products may be made available by 831 Stories or by third parties and may be made available for any purpose, including general information purposes. We attempt to ensure that any such Listings are complete, accurate, and current, but despite our efforts, the Listings may occasionally be inaccurate, incomplete, or out of date. We make no representations as to the completeness, accuracy, reliability, validity, or timeliness of such Listings (including any features, specifications, and prices contained therein). Such Listings and the availability of any Product (including the validity of any coupon or discount) are subject to change at any time without notice. Certain weights, measures, and similar descriptions are approximate and are for convenience only. We make reasonable efforts to accurately display the attributes of Products, including the applicable colors; however, the actual colors you see will depend on your computer system, and we cannot guarantee that your computer will accurately display such colors.

Terms of Sale

Eligibility. To complete your purchase, you must have a valid billing and shipping address within a country that can be selected as part of the checkout process through our payment processor (the “Territory”). We make no promise that Products available on the Site are appropriate or available for use in locations outside the Territory.
Restrictions. You may only purchase Products for personal use by either yourself or your intended recipient of the Products. The Products are not authorized for resale. We may place a limit on the quantities that may be purchased per order, per account, per payment card, per person, or per household. We reserve the right, without prior notice, to refuse service to any customer or reject any order at any time and refund any money you have paid for such order.
Price. Prices shown on the Site exclude all taxes or charges for shipping and handling. Taxes and shipping and handling costs will be added to the amount of your purchase and itemized on the checkout page. You will have an opportunity to review taxes and delivery costs before you confirm your purchase. All prices on the Site are subject to change at any time without notice. We do not collect taxes on merchandise shipped to a jurisdiction in which we do not have substantial nexus, in which case you will be liable to the appropriate taxing authority for any sales taxes relating to your purchase from the Site.
Payment. If you wish to make a transaction, you may be asked to supply certain relevant information, such as your payment card number and its expiration date, your billing address, and your shipping information, to us or our payment processors. You represent and warrant that you have the right to use any payment card that you submit in connection with a transaction. We may receive updated information from your issuing bank or our payment service provider about any payment method you have stored with us. You authorize us to charge your payment method, including any updated payment method information we receive, for any charges you are responsible for under these Terms. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any transaction. You will pay all charges incurred by you or on your behalf through the Services, at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred, including all taxes and shipping and handling charges applicable to your transactions. In the event legal action is necessary to collect on balances due, you will reimburse us and our vendors or agents for all expenses incurred to recover sums due, including attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses.
Subscriptions. Your purchase of certain Products, such as our membership program, may require enrollment in a payment plan involving automatic renewal (a “Recurring Subscription”). If you purchase such a Product, you authorize 831 Stories to maintain your account information and charge that account automatically upon the renewal with no further action required by you. The length of your Recurring Subscription will be provided when you make your purchase. Your Recurring Subscription will automatically renew unless you cancel it. In the event that 831 Stories is unable to charge your account as authorized by you when you enrolled in a Recurring Subscription, 831 Stories may in its sole discretion (i) bill you for your Products or Services and suspend your access to the Products or Services until payment is received or (ii) seek to update your account information through third-party sources (i.e., your bank or a payment processor) to continue charging your account as authorized by you. You may cancel your subscription through your account. You may cancel a Recurring Subscription at any time, but if you cancel your Recurring Subscription before the end of the current subscription period, we will not refund any subscription fees already paid to us. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the applicable Products through the end of your current subscription period. 831 Stories may change the prices charged for Recurring Subscriptions at any time by posting updated pricing through the Services; provided, however, that the prices for your Recurring Subscription will remain in force for the duration of the subscription period for which you have paid. After that period ends, your use of the applicable Products or Services will be charged at the then-current subscription price. If you do not agree to these price changes, you must cancel your Recurring Subscription at least one day before the changes take effect. If you do not cancel, your Recurring Subscription will automatically renew at the then-current price at the time of renewal and for the same duration as the initial subscription term, and 831 Stories will charge your on-file payment card or method on the first day of the renewal of the subscription term.
Order Confirmation; Acceptance. You will have the opportunity to review and confirm your order, including delivery address, payment method, and other details of your order. Although we may confirm orders by email, the receipt of an e-mail order confirmation does not mean the Product is available at the time the order was submitted. We will display or send a notice when we ultimately accept your order, and our acceptance will be complete at the time we display or send the formal acceptance notice. Payment must be received by us before our acceptance of an order.
Shipping; Delivery. Products will be shipped to an address designated by you, if applicable, so long as such address is complete and complies with the shipping restrictions set forth in these Terms or otherwise contained on the Services. You will pay all shipping and handling charges specified during the ordering process. All transactions are made pursuant to a shipment contract and, as a result, risk of loss and title for Products pass to you upon delivery of the Products to the carrier. You are responsible for filing any claims with carriers for damaged and/or lost shipments. Any shipping dates provided are approximate and not guaranteed. We are not liable for any delays in shipments.
Order Delays; Cancellation. We reserve the right to delay, refuse, or cancel any order prior to delivery. For example, if there are errors on the Site or made in connection with your order or inaccuracies in Product or pricing information or Product availability, we reserve the right to correct the error and charge you the correct price or cancel your order. We will contact you if any portion of your order is canceled or if additional information is required to accept your order. Occasionally, the manufacture or distribution of a certain Product may be delayed. In such event, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the delay and keep you informed of the revised delivery schedule.
No Refunds or Exchanges; Damages. 831 Stories maintains a strict NO REFUND OR EXCHANGE policy on any Products that have been purchased on the Site. All purchases through our site or other transactions initiated through the Services are governed by our Shipping and Return Policy at https://831stories.com/pages/shipping-returns, which are hereby incorporated into these Terms. Once a Product has been purchased, it cannot be cancelled unless the item arrives damaged. 831 Stories requires customers to provide a photo of the damaged item within forty-eight (48) hours of receipt, and the item must not be worn, washed, or otherwise tampered with, and all original tags must be attached. Should 831 Stories, in its sole discretion, decide to refund or credit you on any amounts paid, that refund or credit shall constitute its entire, sole, and exclusive liability, and your sole and exclusive remedy, with respect to that order. You understand that 831 Stories is a third-party e-commerce platform and is not responsible for any issues regarding dissatisfaction of the Products.
Reservation of Rights. 831 Stories reserves the right, including without prior notice, to limit the available quantity of or discontinue making available any Product; to impose conditions on the honoring of any coupon, discount, or similar promotion; to bar any user from making any transaction; to alter the payment option for Products; and to refuse to provide any user with any Product.

Third-Party Content

Our Products and Services rely on or interoperate with third-party products and services, including, without limitation, data storage services, communications technologies, IoT platforms, third-party app stores, and internet and mobile operators (collectively, “Third-Party Materials”). These Third-Party Materials are beyond our control, but their operation may impact, or be impacted by, the use and reliability of our Services and Products. You acknowledge that (a) the use and availability of the Products and Services is dependent on third-party product vendors and service providers and (b) these Third-Party Materials may not operate reliably 100% of the time, which may impact the way that our Products or Services operate.
Specifically, certain items of independent, third-party code may be utilized in connection with the Products or Services that may be subject to open-source licenses (“Open-Source Software”). The Open-Source Software is licensed to us under the terms of the license that accompanies such Open-Source Software and may be licensed to you under the terms of the same license or through other terms. Nothing in the Terms limits your rights under, or grants you rights that supersede, the terms and conditions of any applicable license for such Open-Source Software.
We may further provide information about or links to third-party products, services, activities, or events, or we may allow third parties to make their content and information available on or through the Services (collectively, “Third-Party Content”). We provide Third-Party Content as a service to those interested in such content. Your dealings or correspondence with third parties and your use of or interaction with any Third-Party Content are solely between you and the third party.
We have no obligation to monitor Third-Party Materials or Third-Party Content, and we may block or disable access to any Third-Party Materials or Third-Party Content (in whole or part) through our Products or Services at any time. Your access to and use of such Third-Party Content or Third-Party Materials may be subject to additional terms, conditions, and policies applicable to such Third-Party Content (including terms of service or privacy policies of the providers of such Third-Party Materials). You are responsible for obtaining and maintaining any computer hardware, equipment, network services and connectivity, telecommunications services, and other products and services necessary to access and use the Products and Services.

Indemnification

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless 831 Stories and our officers, directors, agents, partners, and employees (individually and collectively, the “831 Stories Parties”) from and against any losses, liabilities, claims, demands, damages, expenses or costs arising out of or related to (a) your access to or use of the Products or Services; (b) your User Content or Feedback; (c) your violation of these Terms; (d) your violation, misappropriation, or infringement of any rights of another (including intellectual property rights or privacy rights); or (e) your conduct in connection with the Services. You will promptly notify 831 Stories Parties of any third-party claims, cooperate with 831 Stories Parties in defending such Claims, and pay all fees, costs, and expenses associated with defending such Claims (including attorneys’ fees). The 831 Stories Parties will have control of the defense or settlement, at 831 Stories' sole option, of any third-party claims. This indemnity is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other indemnities set forth in a written agreement between you and 831 Stories or the other 831 Stories Parties.

Disclaimers

Your use of our Products and Services and any content or materials provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) is at your sole risk. Except as otherwise provided in a writing by us and to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law, our Products, Services, and any content or materials provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. 831 Stories disclaims all warranties with respect to the foregoing, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. In addition, 831 Stories does not represent or warrant that our Products or Services or any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free or that access to our Products or Services or any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) will be uninterrupted. While 831 Stories attempts to make your use of our Products and Services and any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) safe, we cannot and do not represent or warrant that our Products or Services or any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials) or our servers are free of viruses or other harmful components or content or materials. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of the Products and Services and any content provided therein or therewith (including the Third-Party Content and Third-Party Materials). All disclaimers of any kind (including in this section and elsewhere in these Terms) are made for the benefit of 831 Stories, 831 Stories Parties, and 831 Stories' respective shareholders, agents, representatives, licensors, suppliers, and service providers, as well as their respective successors and assigns.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, 831 Stories and the other 831 Stories Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability—whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise—for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, punitive, or special damages or lost profits, even if 831 Stories or the other 831 Stories Parties have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
The total liability of 831 Stories and the other 831 Stories Parties for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or our Services, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the greater of $100 or the amount paid by you to use our Product or Services giving rise to the claim.
The limitations set forth in this Section 18 will not limit or exclude liability for the gross negligence, fraud, or intentional misconduct of 831 Stories or the other 831 Stories Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

Release

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release 831 Stories and the other 831 Stories Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands, and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between users and the acts or omissions of third parties. If you are a consumer who resides in California, you hereby waive your rights under California Civil Code § 1542, which provides: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND 831 STORIES TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU AND 831 STORIES CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER. ARBITRATION PRECLUDES YOU AND 831 STORIES FROM SUING IN COURT OR HAVING A JURY TRIAL. YOU AND 831 STORIES AGREE THAT ARBITRATION WILL BE SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A CLASS ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION, OR ANY OTHER KIND OF REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. 831 STORIES AND YOU ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY A JURY.

YOU AND 831 STORIES EACH ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION ARE INTENDED TO REDUCE THE FINANCIAL BURDENS ASSOCIATED WITH RESOLVING DISPUTES AND ARE NOT INTENDED TO DELAY ADJUDICATION OF EITHER PARTY’S CLAIMS.

FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS BELOW, IN SECTION 20(j), IF YOU WISH TO OPT OUT OF THE REQUIREMENT OF ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.

Claims This Section Applies To. This Section 20 applies to all Claims between you and 831 Stories. A “Claim” is any dispute, claim, or controversy (excluding those exceptions listed in Section 20(c), below) between you and 831 Stories, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, for which either party wishes to seek legal recourse and that arises from or relates to these Terms, the Products or the Services, including any claims related to the use or operation of the Products or the Services, the purchase of any products or services made available through the Services, all privacy or data security claims, and all claims related to the validity, enforceability, or scope of this Section or any portion of it.
Informal Dispute Resolution Before Arbitration. If you believe you have a Claim against 831 Stories or if 831 Stories believes it has a Claim against you, you and 831 Stories will first attempt to resolve the Claim informally to try to resolve the Claim more quickly and reduce costs for both parties. You and 831 Stories will make a good-faith effort to negotiate the resolution of any Claim for 45 days (“Informal Resolution Period”), from the day either party receives a written notice of a dispute from the other party that satisfies the requirements of this Section 20(b) (a “Claimant Notice”). The Informal Resolution Period is designed to allow the party who has received a Claimant Notice to make a fair, fact-based offer of settlement if it chooses to do so. The Informal Resolution Period may be extended by the parties’ mutual written agreement.

You must send any Claimant Notice to 831 Stories by certified mail, addressed to 831 Stories, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, 169 Madison Avenue, STE 15959, New York, NY 10016 or by email to hello@831stories.com. 831 Stories will send any Claimant Notice to you by certified mail or email using the contact information you have provided to 831 Stories. The party sending a Claimant Notice (the “Claimant”) will ensure it includes (i) the Claimant’s name, address, email address, and telephone number; (ii) a description of the nature of and basis for the Claim, including the date(s) on which the Claim arose and the facts on which the Claim is based; (iii) the specific relief sought; and (iv) a personally signed statement from the Claimant themselves(and not their counsel) verifying the accuracy of the contents of the Claimant Notice.

No arbitration demand (“Arbitration Demand”) may be filed or proceed before a Claimant Notice is sent and the Informal Resolution Period has concluded. If you or 831 Stories files an Arbitration Demand without complying with the requirements in this Section 20, including the requirement to wait for the Informal Resolution Period to conclude, the other party may seek relief from a court to enjoin such filing and for such other relief as the court deems proper. The prevailing party in any such action shall be entitled to recover its costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred in seeking such relief.

To facilitate the parties’ efforts to reach an efficient resolution of any Claim, the applicable statutes of limitation will be tolled, and all deadlines associated with arbitration fees deferred, from the commencement of the Informal Dispute Resolution Process through the date when suit or arbitration may be filed under these Terms.

Claims Subject to Binding Arbitration; Exceptions. Except for individual disputes that qualify for small claims court (provided that the small claims court does not permit class or similar representative actions or relief) and any disputes exclusively related to the intellectual property rights of you or 831 Stories, including any disputes in which you or 831 Stories seek injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of your or 831 Stories' intellectual property (“IP Claims”), all Claims, including Claims that are not related to intellectual property or intellectual property rights but are jointly filed with IP Claims, that are not resolved in accordance with Section 20(b) must be resolved by a neutral arbitrator through final and binding arbitration rather than in court. Claims subject to binding arbitration include, without limitation, disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation or application of this arbitration provision, including the enforceability, revocability, or validity of this arbitration provision or any portion of it.
Binding Individual Arbitration. Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Section 20, any Claim may be resolved only through binding individual arbitration conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), https://adr.org/, according to the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq., (“FAA”). If you are a “Consumer,” meaning that you only use the Products and the Services for personal, family, or household purposes, the then-current version of the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules, as modified by these Terms (the “Rules”), will apply to Claims between you and 831 Stories. If you are not a Consumer, the then-current version of the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures, as modified by these Terms, will apply to Claims between you and 831 Stories.

These Terms affect interstate commerce, and the enforceability of this Section 20 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the FAA to the maximum extent permitted by law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms, and the Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any Claim and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. As allowed by applicable law, the arbitrator may only award legal or equitable remedies that are individual to you or 831 Stories to satisfy one of our individual Claims (that the arbitrator determines are supported by credible relevant evidence).

Arbitration Procedure and Location. You or 831 Stories may initiate arbitration of any Claim not resolved during the Informal Resolution Period by filing an Arbitration Demand with AAA in accordance with the Rules.

Instructions for filing a demand with AAA are available on the AAA website or by calling AAA at 800-778-7879. You will send a copy of any demand for arbitration to 831 Stories by certified mail addressed to 831 Stories, Inc., Attn: Legal Department, 169 Madison Avenue, STE 15959, New York, NY 10016 or by email to hello@831stories.com. 831 Stories will send any demand for arbitration to you by certified mail or, if no physical address has been provided, by email using the contact information you have provided to 831 Stories.

The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator in the English language. You and 831 Stories both agree that the arbitrator will be bound by these Terms.

For Claims in which the Claimant seeks less than USD $10,000, the arbitrator will decide the matter based solely on written submissions, unless the arbitrator decides that a formal hearing is necessary. For Claims in which the Claimant seeks USD $10,000 or more, or smaller matters in which the arbitrator determines a hearing to be necessary, hearings will be conducted by video or telephone, unless the arbitrator determines an in-person hearing to be necessary. If an in-person hearing is determined to be necessary, the site of any in-person hearing will be determined by the applicable Rules.

The arbitrator (not a judge or jury) will resolve all Claims in arbitration. Unless you and 831 Stories agree otherwise, any decision or award will include a written statement stating the decision of each Claim and the basis for the award, including the arbitrator’s essential factual and legal findings and conclusions.

Any arbitration decision or award may be enforced as a final judgment by any court of competent jurisdiction or, if applicable, application may be made to such court for judicial confirmation of any award and an order of enforcement.

Arbitration Fees. Each party will be responsible for arbitration fees in accordance with the applicable Rules and these Terms.
Frivolous or Improper Claims. To the extent permitted by applicable law, a Claimant must pay all costs incurred by the defending party, including any attorney’s fees and arbitration fees, related to a Claim if an arbitrator determines that (i) the Claim was not warranted by existing law or by a nonfrivolous argument, (ii) the factual contentions for the Claim lacked evidentiary support when filed or were unlikely to have evidentiary support after a reasonable opportunity for further investigation; or (iii) the Claim was filed in arbitration for any improper purpose, such as to harass the defending party, cause unnecessary delay, or needlessly increase the cost of dispute resolution.
Confidentiality. If you or 831 Stories files a Claim in arbitration, you and 831 Stories agree to cooperate to seek from the arbitrator protection for any confidential, proprietary, trade secret, or otherwise sensitive information, documents, testimony, and other materials that might be exchanged or the subject of any discovery in the arbitration. You and 831 Stories agree to seek such protection before any such information, documents, testimony, or materials are exchanged or otherwise become the subject of discovery in the arbitration.
Mass Disputes. If 25 or more Claimant Notices are received by a party that raise similar Claims and have the same or coordinated counsel, these will be considered a “Mass Dispute” and the provisions of this Section 20(i) will apply to all such Claimant Notices. A Claimant Notice in a Mass Dispute may proceed to arbitration only as set forth below.

Applicable Rules. Any Arbitration Demands based on these Claimant Notices filed in arbitration shall be subject to the AAA’s then-current Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, as modified by these Terms. Any disputes over whether an Arbitration Demand should be considered part of the Mass Dispute will be decided by the AAA as an administrative matter. The following procedures are intended to supplement the AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules, and to the extent the procedures conflict with those Rules, to supersede them.
Initial Arbitrations. The parties shall identify an initial set of 20 Claimant Notices to proceed as Arbitration Demands in order to maximize efficiencies in the management, investigation, and arbitration of the remaining Claimant Notices in the Mass Dispute. The initial set shall be selected as follows. Counsel representing the Claimants in a Mass Dispute must notify the other party in writing (email will suffice) when all or substantially all Claimant Notices for the Mass Dispute have been provided. Counsel for all Claimants and counsel for the responding party each shall then select 10 Claimant Notices to proceed as Arbitration Demands. Claimants shall then file Arbitration Demands for the 20 selected Claimant Notices. No Claimant Notice or Arbitration Demand may be filed or deemed filed, and no related arbitration fees may be assessed, until the Claimant Notice is selected to proceed to arbitration following the process set forth in this Section. A single arbitrator will preside over each Arbitration Demand, and shall preside only over one Arbitration Demand, unless the parties agree otherwise.
Mediation. Upon conclusion of the 20 Initial Arbitrations (or sooner if the parties agree) and before proceeding with any other Arbitration Demands, the parties must engage in a single mediation applicable to all Claimant Notices in the Mass Dispute. The parties shall have 30 days following the conclusion of the last of the initial arbitrations to agree on a mediator. If they are unable to do so, the AAA may appoint one as an administrative matter. No additional Arbitration Demands may be filed until 30 days after such mediation concludes or 90 days after the appointment of a mediator, whichever is sooner.
Remaining Claimant Notices and Arbitrations. If mediation concludes with 100 or more unresolved Claimant Notices, any remaining Claimant or the receiving party to a remaining Claimant Notice may opt out of arbitration of all Claimant Notices that were not resolved in the initial 20 Arbitration Demands or mediation. Such an election may only be for all Claimant Notices remaining in the Mass Dispute, not a portion thereof. To be effective, such election must be communicated in writing (email suffices) to counsel for the other party within 30 days of mediation concluding. Claimant Notices released from the arbitration requirement must be resolved according to Section 21.

If complaints based on Claimant Notices that were released from the arbitration requirement are filed in court, the Claimants may seek class treatment, although to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law, the putative classes must be limited to those Claimants in the Mass Dispute whose claims remain unresolved, and for which a Claimant Notice was received by the other party. Any party may contest class certification at any stage of the litigation and on any available basis and may raise any other defenses available under applicable law.

If the mediation process concludes with fewer than 100 Claimant Notices remaining or if no timely election to opt out of arbitration is made, the AAA will randomly select 30 Claimant Notices (or the total remaining if less than 30) that comply with Section 20(b) to proceed in arbitration in the same manner as described in Section 20(i)(2), above. Once such arbitrations have concluded, the parties will repeat this process until all Claimant Notices in the Mass Dispute have been resolved.

Opting Out of Arbitration. You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted a version of these Terms by emailing hello@831stories.com. To be effective, the opt-out notice must be on your own behalf and include your full name, mailing address, and email address. The notice must also clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration in order to be valid. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with Section 21.
Rejection of Modifications to this Section. You may reject any change we make to this Section 20 (except changes to notice addresses) as to you, by emailing hello@831stories.com within 30 days of the date of the change. To be effective, you must send the notice or rejection on your own behalf, and you must include your full name, mailing address, and email address. The notice must clearly indicate your intent to reject changes to Section 20. You may reject changes to Section 20 only as a whole. You may not reject only certain changes to Section 20. If you reject changes made to Section 20, the most recent version of Section 20 that you have not rejected will continue to apply.
Two Years to Assert Claims. To the extent permitted by law, any Claim by you or 831 Stories against the other must be included in a Claimant Notice within two years after such Claim arises; otherwise, the Claim is permanently barred, which means that you or 831 Stories will no longer have the right to assert that Claim.
Severability. If any portion of this Section 20 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, including but not limited to because it is found to be unconscionable, (i) the unenforceable or unlawful provision will be severed from these Terms; (ii) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision will have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 20 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 20; and (iii) to the extent that any claims may proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, in accordance with these Terms, and not in arbitration. The litigation of those claims will be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 20 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 20 will be enforceable.

Governing Law

Any dispute, claim, or controversy arises from or relates to these Terms will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, except to the extent preempted by U.S. Federal Law, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. If any dispute, claim, or controversy arises from or relates to these Terms is not subject to arbitration pursuant to Section 20, then the state and federal courts located in New York, will have exclusive jurisdiction. You and 831 Stories waive any objection to venue in any such courts. If your local law requires that consumer contracts be interpreted subject to local law and enforced in the courts of that jurisdiction, this section may not apply to you only to the extent that local law conflicts with this section.
