11. Waiver of Contractual Rights for Violators of These Terms of Service. 

You understand and agree that any individual or entity, including, but not limited to, employees, officers, directors, third party agents, affiliates, or independent contractors of such individuals or entities, that violates any term of these Terms of Service, including, but not limited to, accessing the Site without authorization, or in excess of the authorization granted by these Terms of Service, is precluded from enforcing, agrees not to enforce, and covenants not to sue to enforce, any provision in any contract governing the use of any individual or entity’s website, including, terms and conditions, Terms of Service, and terms of service, asserted by such individual, entity, or any affiliate thereof, as binding on Rent Group, or any of its affiliates. 

12. Indemnity.

You will indemnify and hold us (and our officers, directors, agents, affiliates, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees), harmless from any cost, liability, charge, penalties, claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, court costs, and other costs of collection, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of this Agreement, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party, or incurred by us as a result of your default under this Agreement.

13. Resolution of Disputes.

If a dispute arises between you and Rent Group, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly.  Accordingly, you and Rent Group agree that we will resolve any claim or controversy at law or equity that arises out of this Agreement or our services (a “Claim”) in accordance with the subsections below or as we and you otherwise agree in writing.  

  • In the event that either party to these Terms of Service has a dispute relating to or arising from these Terms of Service or the use of the Site, it must immediately notify the other party in writing giving details of the dispute. If the parties cannot resolve the dispute within fourteen (14) days of receipt of the notice provided for above, the dispute will then be submitted to mediation by a mediator agreed to by the parties, or failing agreement, appointed by Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) at the request of either party. If the matter is not resolved by mediation within fourteen (14) days from there, the matter will be submitted for arbitration in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), by a single arbitrator to be appointed by the parties or, failing agreement, appointed by JAMS at the request of either party. The arbitrator shall not have the power to maintain class action or class-wide procedures, or provide either party with class-wide relief.  Any such mediation or arbitration shall take place in Atlanta, Georgia. Unless the parties agree otherwise, English shall be the sole language of all such proceedings. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of this Agreement.
  • YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AS DESCRIBED BELOW. UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF ARBITRATION, YOU AND WE ARE WAIVING (i) THE RIGHT TO HAVE OUR DISPUTE HEARD BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY, OR OTHERWISE TO BE DECIDED BY A COURT OR GOVERNMENT TRIBUNAL, and (ii) ANY ABILITY TO ASSERT OR PARTICIPATE ON A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS IN COURT OR IN ARBITRATION. ALL DISPUTES, EXCEPT AS STATED BELOW, MUST BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION WHEN EITHER YOU OR WE REQUEST IT. You have the right to opt out of this agreement to arbitrate by sending written notice to Rent Group Inc., Attn: General Counsel, 271 17th St. NW, Suite 1850, Atlanta, GA 30363, within 30 days of first accepting these Terms of Service. Otherwise, this agreement to arbitrate will apply without limitation.
  • After we receive notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee up to $300. For claims less than $75,000 that you win in arbitration, we will reimburse you for any fees paid to the arbitration organization and/or arbitrator. If, however, the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all such fees will be governed by the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”).  In such case, you agree to reimburse us for all monies previously disbursed by us that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the Rules.  Arbitration relating to claims of $75,000 or greater shall be governed by the Rules with regard to payment of fees.  If you consider that you are unable to afford any fees that would be yours to pay, you may request that we pay or reimburse them, and we will consider your request in good faith.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may bring an individual action in small claims court, if the claim is in that court’s jurisdiction and proceeds on an individual, and not class-wide, basis. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. The arbitration shall be kept confidential by both parties, and either party may seek injunctive relieve before the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia or the state courts of Fulton County, Georgia for the limited purposes of: (i) securing compliance with this arbitration provision pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act; and (ii) enforcing the confidentiality of the arbitral proceedings. 
  • BY AGREEING TO THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION, EACH PARTY UNDERSTANDS THAT BOTH YOU AND WE ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. BOTH PARTIES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN THEIR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. FURTHER, UNLESS THE PARTIES AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. If these terms relating to class or representative procedures are legally unenforceable for any reason with respect to a claim, then this agreement to arbitrate will be inapplicable to that claim, and the claim will instead be handled through litigation in court, rather than by arbitration, on the terms below.
  • The arbitrator will have the power to award to a party any damages or other relief provided for under applicable law, with the exception of punitive damages to which neither party will be entitled.   
  • The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.  The arbitrator’s decision will be final and binding on the parties. A party can file a written appeal to the arbitration administrator within 30 days of award issuance. The appeal must request a new arbitration in front of three neutral arbitrators designated by the same arbitration administrators. The panel will reconsider all factual and legal issues, following the same rules of procedure, and will make decisions based on majority vote. Any final arbitration award will be binding on the named parties and enforceable by any court having jurisdiction.
  • Subject to the foregoing, all disputes arising out of or related to these Terms of Service or your use of the Site shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Georgia, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts or choice of law. If the mandatory arbitration provisions above do not apply to any dispute relating to or arising from these Terms of Service or the use of the Site for any reason, such dispute shall be submitted to and resolved solely in the state or federal courts located in Atlanta, Georgia without jury trial. Both parties hereby consent to the personal jurisdiction of these courts and waive any objection (including of inconvenient forum) to these courts hearing such disputes. No other court, whether state or federal, may hear any such complaint or dispute. BY ACCESSING AND/OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO SUCH EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION AND VENUE AND AGREEMENT TO WAIVE JURY TRIAL. This arbitration agreement shall be construed broadly to encompass any and all possible claims between you and Rent Group that are even tangentially related to the contractual relationship created by these Terms of Service. 
  • If you are a California resident, in accordance with California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 400 R Street, Sacramento, CA 95814, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.

14. Notices.

Except as explicitly stated otherwise, notices should be sent to us at the following address:

Rent Group Inc.
Attn: General Counsel
271 17th St. NW, Suite 1850
Atlanta, GA 30363

We will send notices to the email address you provide to Rent Group through your use of the Site.  Notice shall be deemed given 24 hours after email is sent, unless the sending party is notified that the email address is invalid.  

15. General.

By using the Site and agreeing to the Terms of Service, you are also agreeing to abide by our Privacy Policy, and all other agreements and policies posted on the Site.  Rent Group reserves the right to terminate a user’s account at any time.  In our sole discretion, we may assign the Agreement.  Headings are for reference purposes only and do not limit the scope or extent of such section.  Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.  No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.  If any part of this agreement is determined to be invalid or unenforceable pursuant to applicable law including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the agreement shall continue in effect.  The Sections and policies that by their nature are intended to survive, shall survive any termination of the Agreement.  

16. Integration/Re-Affirmation. 

You acknowledge and agree that these Terms of Service, and the other policies, terms, guidelines and rules referenced herein, constitute the entire and exclusive agreement between Rent Group and you regarding the Site, and supersede and replace any prior agreements between Rent Group and you regarding the Site.  You further acknowledge and agree that each time you visit the Site, you: (i) expressly waive any prior rights you may have obtained from any contract to access or use of the Site; (ii) re-affirm your commitment to abide by these Terms of Service, including any new provisions that have been added since the last time you accessed the Site; and (iii) signify your agreement that the current terms in Terms of Service supersede all prior terms of service in effect when you accessed the Site, such that each time you access the Site, you form a new agreement with Rent Group that applies to your access to the Site.
