d. Informational Purposes Only. The content we provide on the Site and through the Services is for informational purposes only. It is not intended to be a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of your physician or other qualified health provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay in seeking it because of something you have read on the Site or encountered in the course of using the Services. Chapter does not endorse any prescription drugs, treatments, physicians, products, procedures, opinions, insurance coverage or other information that may be mentioned on the Site or through the Services.

By providing Chapter with a telephone number and/or other contact information, you agree to receive communications, including via-email, call, and text message (including text messages and calls made using an auto dialer or prerecorded voice message), from or on behalf of Chapter at the email address or telephone number you provided, even if that number is on a National or State Do Not Call List. You represent and warrant that you are the authorized subscriber for any telephone number you provide to Chapter and you have confirmed that you have provided us with the correct number. Calls to you from Chapter may be for informational and/or marketing purposes, including to provide you with information about Chapter’s services and your insurance options, for assistance with insurance applications, and to provide reminders about upcoming deadlines relevant to Medicare enrollment or your insurance coverage. You are not required to provide your consent to these calls as a condition of any purchase through Chapter or as a condition of using the Services, and you may revoke any consent for marketing messages, phone calls or text messages as described below. Standard text messaging and telephone minute charges applied by your cell phone carrier will apply. Message frequency varies. If you have any questions about your text plan or data plan, it is best to contact your wireless provider. Chapter may, without further notice or warning and in our discretion, monitor and/or record telephone conversations for our business purposes, such as quality assurance and training purposes and to protect our rights and the rights of others.
You may revoke your consent to receive text messages from Chapter at any time by texting “STOP” in reply to any Chapter mobile communication.

16. Governing Law and Forum Choice.
These Terms, and any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating thereto, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof (collectively, “Disputes”) will be governed by laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws provisions.
17. Dispute Resolution.
We will try work in good faith to resolve any issue you have with the Services if you bring that issue to the attention of our customer service department. However, we realize that there may be rare cases where we may not be able to resolve an issue to your satisfaction.
If you desire to assert a claim against Chapter, and you therefore elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to Chapter, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (“Notice”). The Notice to Chapter should be addressed to: Memoir, Inc. d/b/a Chapter, Attn: Legal Department, 19 Union Square West, 12th Floor, New York, NY 10003 (“Notice Address”). If Chapter desires to assert a claim against you and therefore elects to seek arbitration, we will send, by certified mail, a written Notice to the most recent address we have on file or otherwise in our records for you. A Notice, whether sent by you or by Chapter, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or Dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If you and Chapter do not reach a resolution within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or Chapter may, in accordance with this Section 17, commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court.
a. Mandatory Arbitration of Disputes. We each agree that any Dispute will be resolved solely by binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative, or consolidated action or proceeding. You and Chapter agree that the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these Terms, and that you and Chapter are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms.
b. Exceptions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent a Dispute arises from (i) a violation of either party’s intellectual property rights in any manner or (ii) any claim for equitable relief, you and Chapter agree a party may seek injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in a state or federal court in New York City, New York, and both parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts in connection with such proceedings. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Disputes that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration, provided such action remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.
c. Conducting Arbitration and Arbitration Rules. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. A party who wishes to start arbitration must submit a written Demand for Arbitration to AAA and give notice to the other party as specified in the AAA Rules. The AAA provides a form Demand for Arbitration at www.adr.org.
The arbitration will be conducted in New York City, New York, except that, in the event New York City, New York, is not within 100 miles of your residence, the arbitration may be conducted within 100 miles of your residence, unless the parties agree otherwise in writing. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to decide all issues relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and scope of this arbitration agreement.
d. Arbitration Costs. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won’t seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration we’ll pay all of our attorneys’ fees and costs and won’t seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration you will be entitled to an award of attorneys’ fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law.
e. Injunctive and Declaratory Relief. Except as provided in Section 17(b) above, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
f. Class Action Waiver. YOU AND CHAPTER AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR ORITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, if the parties’ Dispute is resolved through arbitration, the arbitrator may not consolidate another person’s claims with your claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void.
g. Severability. If this agreement to arbitrate provision is found to be unenforceable, then (a) the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, but the remaining provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect; and (b) exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claims will be in state or federal courts located in and for New York City, New York.
18. General Terms.
a. Reservation of Rights. Chapter and its licensors exclusively own all right, title and interest in and to the Services, including all associated intellectual property rights. You acknowledge that the Services are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of the United States and foreign countries. You agree not to remove, alter or obscure any copyright, trademark, service mark or other proprietary rights notices incorporated in or accompanying the Services.
b. Entire Agreement. These Terms constitute the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between Chapter and you regarding the Services, and these Terms supersede and replace all prior oral or written understandings or agreements between Chapter and you regarding the Services. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible, and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect. You may not assign or transfer these Terms, by operation of law or otherwise, without Chapter’s prior written consent. Any attempt by you to assign or transfer these Terms, without such consent, will be null. Chapter may freely assign or transfer these Terms without restriction. Subject to the foregoing, these Terms will bind and inure to the benefit of the parties, their successors and permitted assigns.
c. Notices. Any notices or other communications provided by Chapter under these Terms will be given: (i) via email; or (ii) by posting to the Services. For notices made by email, the date of receipt will be deemed the date on which such notice is transmitted.
d. Waiver of Rights. Chapter’s failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of such 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 Chapter. 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.
