Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer's satisfaction by calling our Customer Service Department at 1-513-445-4954. You can also email us at customerservice@FileHarmonizer.com.

However, if File Harmonizeris not able to resolve a dispute with you after attempting to do so informally, then as a condition to your use of the Services we mutually agree to resolve such dispute through binding arbitration under the auspices of JAMS Alternative Dispute Resolution ("JAMS") . JAMS will administer any such arbitration under its Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes. The arbitrationwill be held in the United States county where you live or work, Cincinnati (OH), or any other location as to which we may then mutually agree.

You may only resolve disputes with us or Participating Attorneys on an individual basis, and may not bring a claim as a plaintiff or a class member in a class, consolidated, or representative action. Class arbitrations, class actions, private attorney general actions, and consolidation with other arbitrations aren't allowed.

Notwithstanding our agreement to arbitrate our disputes as provided above, the following exceptions will apply to the resolution of disputes between us:

• Either you or File Harmonizermay assert claims, if they qualify, in small claims court in San Francisco, Ohioor in any United States county where you live or work without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
• File Harmonizermay bring a lawsuit against you in any court of competent jurisdiction solely for injunctive relief to stop any unauthorized use or abuse of the Services without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
• File Harmonizermay bring a lawsuit against you in any court of competent jurisdiction solely for injunctive relief to stop any intellectual property infringement without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.
• In the event that the agreement to arbitrate provided herein is found to be inapplicable or unenforceable for any reason, then as a condition to your use of the Services we agree that any resulting judicial proceedings will be brought in the federal or state courts of San Francisco, Ohio, and by your use of the Services you expressly consent to venue and personal jurisdiction of the courts therein.

File Harmonizermay, in the future, make changes to these provisions regarding dispute resolution and arbitration by providing notice in accordance with the section of these Terms entitled "Modifications" below. You may reject any changes made during your Membership by sending us written notice. Such notice must be given within thirty (30) calendar days of the notice of modification to the following address: File Harmonizer, LLC, 2692 MadisonRd, Ste N1-203, Cincinnati, OH 45208, Attention: General Counsel.

File Harmonizer's failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of its right to do so later. If a provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions of the Terms will remain in full effect and an enforceable term will be substituted reflecting our intent as closely as possible. You may not assign any of your rights under these Terms, and any such attempt will be void. File Harmonizermay assign its rights to any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with theServices.

More simply put:

If for some reason File Harmonizercan't or doesn't enforce part of these terms, the rest of the terms will still be valid.

24. Modifications

We may revise these Terms from time to time, and will always post the most current version on our website.

By continuing to use or access the Services after the revisions come into effect, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms.
If you have any questions or concerns, please visit our Help Page or Contact Us at any time.

More simply put:

We will always post the most current terms here on our website.
