You, at your own cost and expense, hereby agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Cricbuzz and its officers, directors, employees, independent contractors, agents, attorneys, insurers, successors and assigns (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all third-party claims, disputes, controversy, obligations, causes of action, losses, damages, judgments, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) (collectively, “Liabilities”) incurred in connection with or arising out of (i) your use or inability to use the Services, (ii) your breach or violation of this Agreement; (iii) your violation of any law, regulation or the rights of any user or third party; (iv) any content submitted by you or submitted using your Account to the Services, including, but not limited to, that actually or allegedly infringes or misappropriates the intellectual property rights of a third party, or otherwise is illegal or unlawful; or (v) your gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or intentional or wrongful misconduct. You also agree to indemnify the Indemnified Parties for any Liabilities resulting from your use of software robots, spiders, crawlers, or similar data gathering and extraction tools, or any other action you take that imposes an unreasonable burden or loan on our infrastructure. Cricbuzz shall provide you with prompt notice of any Liabilities under this Section for which Cricbuzz seeks defense and indemnity, provided that Cricbuzz’s failure to provide or delay in providing such notice shall not diminish your defense and indemnity obligations hereunder unless and only to the extent you are materially and adversely affected by such failure or delay to give such notice. Cricbuzz reserves the right, in its own sole discretion, to assume the exclusive defense and control at its own expense of any matter otherwise subject to your indemnification. You will not, in any event, settle any claim or matter that would be binding on Cricbuzz or involves making an admission of guilt or wrongdoing, without the prior written consent of Cricbuzz.
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY — IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND GOVERNS HOW YOU AND CRICBUZZ CAN BRING CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER. THIS SECTION WILL, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION, REQUIRE YOU AND CRICBUZZ TO SUBMIT CLAIMS AGAINST EACH OTHER TO BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
Most concerns can be resolved by contacting customer service at support@cricbuzz.com. In the event we are unable to resolve a complaint to your satisfaction, this Section explains how any dispute will be resolved.
We are available by email at grievance@cricbuzz.com to address any concerns you may have regarding your use of the Services. You and Cricbuzz agree to engage cooperatively to try and resolve any dispute informally prior to you or Cricbuzz initiating any arbitration proceeding. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. The parties shall use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation and good faith negotiations which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration. You or Cricbuzz must first send a written notice to the other party providing a detailed description of the dispute; your or our name and contact information (address, telephone number, email address, and account number if applicable); sufficient information to enable you or Cricbuzz to identify any transaction at issue (including any receipts or purchase details); and a detailed description of: (a) the nature and basis of the dispute and any claims and (b) the nature and basis of the relief sought (including a detailed calculation of any damages).
Your notice must be sent to grievance@cricbuzz.com. Our notice will be sent using the most recent contact information that you have provided to us. For a period of 60 days from the date of receipt of a completed notice from the other party, you and we will work together using reasonable efforts to try to resolve the dispute. If requested by us in connection with a notice initiated by you, you agree to personally participate in an individualized telephone settlement conference (and if you are represented by an attorney, your attorney may also participate) to discuss a potential early resolution of the matter. If requested by you in connection with a notice initiated by us, we agree to have a Cricbuzz representative personally participate in an individualized, telephone settlement conference (and if we are represented by an attorney, our attorney may also participate). If the dispute is not resolved within this 60-day period (which can be extended by agreement of the parties), you or we may commence arbitration consistent with the process set forth below. Compliance with this informal dispute resolution process is mandatory and a condition precedent to initiating arbitration.
Any applicable limitations period (including statutes of limitations) shall be tolled while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process. If the sufficiency of a notice or compliance with this informal dispute resolution process is at issue, such issue may be raised with and decided by a court of competent jurisdiction at either party’s election, and further, any arbitration shall be stayed pending resolution of the issue. The court shall have the authority to enforce this condition precedent to arbitration, which includes the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a demand for arbitration or the assessment or payment of arbitration fees. You or we may also elect to raise non-compliance with this informal dispute resolution process and seek relief in arbitration.
THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE HAD A RIGHT OR OPPORTUNITY TO LITIGATE DISPUTES THROUGH A COURT, TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE THEIR CASE, AND TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING INVOLVING MULTIPLE CLAIMANTS, BUT THEY HAVE INSTEAD CHOSEN TO HAVE ALL DISPUTES DECIDED THROUGH INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION. THE PARTIES FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.
You and we hereby agree and consent that any claim, controversy, or dispute related to or arising out of access to and use of the Services, our marketing or communication with you, these Terms of Use (including the breach hereof), any promotions offered by Cricbuzz, or telephonic outreach, whether based in contract, tort, statute, or other legal theory (“Disputes”), will be resolved by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator as described below. This provision shall apply retroactively to any Disputes that arose prior to this agreement, as well as any present or future Disputes. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all Disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this agreement to binding arbitration, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this arbitration agreement is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under the law or in equity. Nothing in this arbitration agreement shall be construed as a waiver of either party’s right to seek public injunctive relief, and you and we agree to cooperate to affect the stay of any requests for public injunctive relief.
Any and all actions taken under this arbitration agreement are confidential and must not be disclosed to any third party. Any arbitral award will be final and binding and may be enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction. This arbitration agreement applies to you and Cricbuzz and its affiliates and related entities. Interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration agreement will be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq. (“FAA”), provided that if the FAA is found not to apply to any issue of interpretation and enforcement, then the issue shall be resolved under the laws of the State of Delaware.
The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules, which are available at https://www.adr.org/Rules. All AAA arbitration proceedings will be held in a location reasonably convenient to both parties consistent with the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules. If you intend to seek arbitration you must first send a written demand for arbitration (“Demand”), by first class mail, FedEx, or UPS within the appliable statute of limitations. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules, the respondent in any Dispute will have the right to depose the claimant. Your Demand shall be sent and delivered to Cricbuzz at Regd. Office: Express Building, 9-10, Bahadurshah Zafar Marg, New Delhi, - 110002, INDIA.. The Demand must describe the nature and basis of the claim and the specific relief sought. If the parties cannot reach an agreement within 30 days after Cricbuzz’s receipt of the Demand, either party may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form to initiate arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA site at www.adr.org. In addition to filing this form with the AAA, the party initiating the arbitration must mail a copy of the completed form to the opposing party. You may send such a copy to Cricbuzz at Regd. Office: Express Building, 9-10, Bahadurshah Zafar Marg, New Delhi, - 110002, INDIA.
If any court or arbitrator determines that any term in this arbitration agreement is unenforceable for any reason as to any claim, then this arbitration agreement will be inapplicable to that claim only, and that claim will instead proceed through litigation in court rather than by arbitration, but only after the conclusion of the arbitration of any claim or dispute that is subject to this arbitration agreement.
Except if this arbitration provision does not apply, arbitration shall be your exclusive remedy.
You and we further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in our respective individual capacities only and not as a class action, and you and we each expressly waive our respective right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration agreement set forth in this section shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration (i) either party may seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction; and (ii) either party may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property or proprietary rights. Any institution of any action for injunctive relief will not constitute a waiver of the right or obligation of the claiming party to submit any claim seeking relief other than injunctive relief to arbitration.
If ten (10) or more demands for arbitration of a dispute or claim subject to the arbitration agreement set forth herein are initiated: (i) that involve common questions of law or fact and (ii) where the initiating parties are represented by the same law firm, the same group of coordinated law firms, or the same representative; then such demands shall be coordinated pursuant to this paragraph. The group of claimants and group of respondents shall each select three (3) demands, for a total of six (6), to be filed with AAA (collectively the “Mass Filing Demands”). Each of the Mass Filing Demands shall be assigned by AAA to a different arbitrator chosen from its national roster. The remaining demands shall not be filed or deemed filed in arbitration nor shall any arbitration fees be assessed or collected in connection with those claims until they are selected to proceed to individual arbitration proceedings until after ninety (90) days from the date all Mass Filing Demands have been arbitrated and all appeals are exhausted. After ninety (90) days from the date all Mass Filing Demands have been arbitrated and any appeals exhausted, any remaining Demands subject to this paragraph may be filed with AAA. The AAA Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings shall apply to the extent they are not inconsistent with this paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Terms, you and Cricbuzz agree that a court of competent jurisdiction shall have authority to enforce the terms of this paragraph with injunctive or other relief.
