Users who purchase items are called “Buyers”, and users who list items are called “Sellers”. Users may be both Buyers and Sellers on the Services. On the Service, Sellers can submit items for sale by taking and uploading photos and entering a sale price, as well as the size and condition of the item.

If you are a resident of Quebec, Canada, please see Conditions d’Utilisation for the French translation of these Terms.

Please carefully read these Terms, including the binding arbitration provision contained below under “Dispute Resolution”, which will require you to submit claims you have against us to binding and final arbitration, unless you opt out of the binding arbitration provision by following the opt-out procedures described below under “Dispute Resolution” or unless a limited exception described in these Terms applies.

CONTROLLING LAW AND JURISDICTION

These Terms and any action related to these Terms will be governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The exclusive jurisdiction and venue of any action to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights will be the state and federal courts located in the Central District of California, and each of you and GOAT waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts. If the agreement to arbitrate set forth below under the heading “Dispute Resolution” is found not to apply to you or to a particular dispute, claim or controversy, either as a result of your decision to opt out of the agreement to arbitrate or as a result of a decision by the arbitrator or a court order, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for the resolution of such dispute, claim or controversy will be the state and federal courts located in the Central District of California, and each of you and GOAT waives any objection to jurisdiction and venue in such courts.

ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. Any attempt to assign or transfer these Terms without such consent will be null and of no effect. We may assign or transfer these Terms at our sole discretion and without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of you, GOAT, and the respective successors and permitted assigns of you and GOAT.

NOTICES

Any notices or other communications permitted or required hereunder, including those regarding modifications to these Terms, will be in writing and given by GOAT: (i) via email to the address that you provide to us or (ii) by posting to the Site.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT AS THE TERMS OTHERWISE PROVIDE AND TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO TRY ANY CLAIM IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. Other rights that you would have if you brought a claim to court, such as access to discovery or appeals, also might be unavailable or limited in arbitration.

Agreement to Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver. Except as these Terms otherwise provide and to the fullest extent permitted by law, you and GOAT acknowledge and agree that you are each waiving the right to a trial by jury and to the litigation of disputes in state or federal courts of general jurisdiction. The parties further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in their individual capacities only and not as a class action/class arbitration or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. You and GOAT may not be plaintiffs or class members in any purported class, collective, private attorney general, or representative proceeding, or otherwise make or proceed with any claim on a collective or consolidated basis, and may each bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity. As referenced above, the arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only on an individual basis and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by the individual claim. Any dispute, claim or controversy between you and GOAT, its subsidiaries or affiliates and their respective agents, employees, officers, directors, principals, successors, and assigns (collectively for purposes of this Dispute Resolution section, "GOAT") arising from or relating in any way to: (i) these Terms (including previous versions of these Terms) and their interpretation or the breach, termination, enforcement, or validity thereof, and the relationships which result from these Terms; (ii) your use of or access to the Service; or (iii) the action of GOAT or its agents, or any items or services listed, offered, sold, purchased, or distributed by GOAT on or through the Service or through any website or mobile application owned or operated by GOAT (collectively, “Covered Disputes”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court. Covered Disputes shall be interpreted broadly.

Initiating Arbitration. You and GOAT agree that any Covered Dispute between you and GOAT shall be settled by final and binding arbitration, except that each party retains the right to bring an individual action in small claims court and the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party's copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

Arbitration Rules and Governing Law. Except for certain complaints regarding the handling of personal data of EU, UK and Swiss individuals (which is addressed in the section below titled "Arbitration Regarding Personal Data of EU, UK and Swiss Individuals"), any arbitration between you and GOAT will be administered by National Arbitration and Mediation ("NAM") in accordance with NAM's operative Comprehensive Dispute Resolution Rules and Procedures (the "NAM Rules") in effect at the time any demand for arbitration is filed with NAM, as modified by this “Dispute Resolution” section. For a copy of the NAM Rules, please visit this link or contact NAM at NAM's National Processing Center at 990 Stewart Avenue, 1st Floor, Garden City, NY 11530. If you have a question about the NAM Rules, please contact NAM via email at [email protected]. If NAM is unavailable or unwilling to administer the arbitration, the parties will select an alternative private neutral arbitrator to conduct the arbitration in accordance with the NAM Rules. If the parties are unable to agree, they will petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint an arbitration administrator that will do so. Any arbitration will be held before a single neutral arbitrator. The Federal Arbitration Act will govern the interpretation and enforcement of this “Dispute Resolution” section.

Arbitration Process and Selection of Arbitrator. A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide NAM with a written demand for arbitration or arbitration notice form made available from the arbitration administrator and supplement that form with a detailed description of your claim. You must personally sign your demand for arbitration. You agree to also send GOAT a copy of your demand for arbitration by email to [email protected]. If GOAT initiates arbitration, GOAT will send a copy of its demand for arbitration to your email address on file. Unless you and GOAT otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in the county you reside in within a reasonable time, without undue delay. All parties participating in arbitration shall have the right, at their own expense, to be represented by a spokesperson of their own choosing. If your claim does not exceed $10,000 USD, then you or GOAT may elect to have the arbitration be conducted by telephone or solely on the basis of documents you and GOAT submit to the arbitrator, unless either you or GOAT requests a hearing or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. If your claim exceeds $10,000 USD, or seeks declaratory or injunctive relief, either party may request to hold an in-person or virtual hearing from the arbitrator. In-person hearings will take place in the county where you reside or at another location reasonably convenient for you, or at a mutually agreed upon location. The right to a hearing will be determined by the NAM Rules. Subject to the NAM Rules, the arbitrator will have the discretion to direct a reasonable exchange of information by the parties, consistent with the expedited nature of the arbitration. Unless otherwise prohibited by law, all arbitration proceedings will be confidential and closed to the public and any parties other than you and GOAT, and all records relating thereto will be permanently sealed, except as necessary to obtain court confirmation of the arbitration award (provided that the party seeking confirmation shall seek to file such records under seal to the extent permitted by law).

Arbitrator's Decision. The arbitrator has the sole authority to address all claims or arguments by both parties concerning the formation, legality, and enforceability of this arbitration clause, the scope of this clause, and the arbitrability of any claim or issue arising between you and GOAT. Provided the parties have not agreed otherwise, the arbitrator will have the same powers as a court of competent jurisdiction would to administer the arbitration and will administer the arbitration according to these Terms. The arbitrator will render an award within the timeframe specified in the NAM Rules. The arbitrator's decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding only between you and GOAT and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or proceeding involving a different party, provided that the arbitrator may consider rulings in other arbitrations involving different arbitrations. The arbitrator's award may be subject to review in accordance with applicable statutes governing arbitration awards. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having competent jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator may award fees and costs as provided by the NAM Rules or to the extent such fees and costs could be awarded in a court of competent jurisdiction or if the arbitrator determines that a claim, proceeding, or defense was frivolous, brought for harassment, for improper purpose, or in bad faith. The arbitrator shall apply the provisions of Federal Rules of Civil Procedure 68 after entry of the award. The prevailing party in arbitration will be entitled to an award of attorneys' fees and expenses, to the extent provided under applicable law.

Costs of Arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the NAM Rules. You will be responsible for payment of the then-current filing fee as required by NAM Rules at the time the demand is filed. GOAT will be responsible for payment of the balance of such filing fee and other administrative and arbitrator fees associated with the arbitration in accordance with the NAM Rules. If you are able to demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, GOAT will pay as much of your share of the filing fee as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive.

Special Additional Procedures for Mass Arbitration. If 25 or more individuals seek to initiate arbitrations with GOAT raising similar claims, and counsel for the individuals bringing the claims are the same or coordinated or the claims are otherwise coordinated ("Mass Claims"), you and GOAT agree that these additional procedures shall apply, along with the applicable NAM Rules. You understand and agree that if you choose to initiate your claim as part of Mass Claims, the adjudication of your claim might be delayed. To increase the efficiency of administration and resolution of any such Mass Claims, you and GOAT also agree that in the event that there are one hundred (100) or more individual arbitrations of a substantially similar nature filed against GOAT by or with the assistance of the same law firm, group of law firms, or organizations, within a ninety (90) day period, NAM shall (1) administer the arbitration demands in batches of 100 claims per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 claims left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining claims); (2) appoint one arbitrator for each batch; and (3) provide for the resolution of each batch as a single consolidated arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees due per side per batch, one procedural calendar, one hearing (if any) in a place to be determined by the arbitrator, and one final award (“Batch Arbitration”). To the extent the parties disagree on any issue arising out of or relating to the Batch Arbitration, the disagreeing party shall advise NAM, and NAM shall appoint a sole standing arbitrator to determine the applicability of the Batch Arbitration process (“Procedural Arbitrator”). The Procedural Arbitrator’s fees shall be paid by GOAT. This provision shall in no way be interpreted as authorizing a class, collective and/or mass arbitration or action of any kind, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances, except as expressly set forth in this provision. All parties agree that arbitrations are of a “substantially similar nature” if they arise out of or relate to the same event or factual scenario and raise the same or similar legal issues and seek the same or similar relief. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce these mass arbitration procedures and, if necessary, to enjoin the filing or prosecution of arbitrations that are not consistent with the terms of these mass arbitration procedures.

Opt-Out Right. YOU MAY OPT OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE. IF YOU DO SO, NEITHER YOU NOR GOAT CAN REQUIRE THE OTHER TO PARTICIPATE IN AN ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. TO OPT OUT, YOU MUST NOTIFY US IN WRITING WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST BECAME SUBJECT TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION BY EMAILING [email protected]. You must include your name and residence address, the email address for your account, and a clear statement that you want to opt out of this arbitration agreement.

Severability of Arbitration Provisions. If a court of competent jurisdiction decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any portion of this “Dispute Resolution” section as to a particular claim for relief, then such claim (and only such claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. All other claims will be arbitrated, and the arbitrator (and not any federal, state, or local court or agency) shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating to the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, validity, scope, applicability or formation of this agreement to arbitrate (including previous versions of this agreement to arbitrate), any part thereof, or of these Terms (including previous versions of these Terms), including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this agreement to arbitrate or the Terms are void or voidable. Further, if any part of this “Dispute Resolution” section 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 “Dispute Resolution” section will be enforceable.

Changes. Notwithstanding the provisions of the “Modification” section above, if we materially change this “Dispute Resolution” section after the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice by emailing [email protected] within 30 days of the date such change becomes effective (as indicated above) or by canceling your account. By rejecting any change or canceling your account, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Covered Dispute between you and GOAT in accordance with the provisions of this “Dispute Resolution” section as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms). If you reopen your canceled account or create a new account, you agree to be bound by the then current version of the Terms.

WAIVER; SEVERABILITY

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of GOAT. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If for any reason a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the fullest extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.
