If such negotiations do not resolve the dispute, it shall be finally settled by binding arbitration in San Diego, CA. The arbitration will proceed in the English language, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) then in effect, by one commercial arbitrator with substantial experience in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes. The arbitrator shall be selected from the appropriate list of JAMS arbitrators in accordance with such Rules. Judgment upon the award rendered by such arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

Changes to this Privacy Policy

We’re constantly trying to improve the AnyCreek Services, so we may need to change this Privacy Policy from time to time, but we will alert you to any such changes by placing a notice on the AnyCreek website, by sending you an email and/or by some other means. Please note that if you’ve opted not to receive legal notice emails from us (or you haven’t provided us with your email address), those legal notices will still govern your use of the AnyCreek Services, and you are still responsible for reading and understanding them.
