11.1 Agreement to Arbitrate
You and VeraTenet LLC agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services (collectively, "Disputes") will be resolved by binding individual arbitration rather than in a court of law, except as set forth in Section 11.4 below.
11.2 Arbitration Rules and Procedures
Any arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (or, if you are not a consumer, its Commercial Arbitration Rules), as modified by these Terms. The AAA's rules are available at www.adr.org. The arbitration shall be conducted in Santa Clara County, California, unless you and VeraTenet LLC agree otherwise in writing. The arbitration shall be conducted in English.
11.3 Arbitrator Authority
The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute, including any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable. The arbitrator may award any relief that would be available in a court under law or in equity, provided that the arbitrator shall apply these Terms and the applicable substantive law. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding, and judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
11.4 Exceptions to Arbitration
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court. Either party may also seek emergency injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent irreparable harm pending arbitration.

Section 13 — Force Majeure
VeraTenet LLC shall not be liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under these Terms to the extent that such failure or delay is caused by or results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to:
