Terms of Use

massarbitration.co (the “Site”) is operated by DGY LLC, trading as MassArbitration(“we”, “us”). These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and us and govern your access to and use of the Site, its content, the newsletter, and any related service we provide (together, the “Services”).

By accessing the Site or subscribing to the newsletter you accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services. If you use the Services on behalf of a firm or organisation, you represent that you are authorised to bind it, and “you” includes that entity.

The Services provide news, analysis, summaries, and reference material about mass arbitration and aggregate litigation. They are published for legal professionals and are for general information only. Nothing on the Site is legal advice, and nothing on the Site is a substitute for advice from a lawyer licensed in your jurisdiction who knows the facts of your matter.

Using the Services, subscribing to the newsletter, or contacting us does not create an attorney-client, fiduciary, or professional relationship of any kind. Case citations, fee figures, and provider rules are summarised from the sources cited on each page and may be superseded; verify every citation in a primary source and confirm current fee schedules with the arbitration provider before relying on them.

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to access the Site and to view, download, and print its content for your personal or internal professional use, including to cite it with attribution in advice, briefs, and publications.

You may not, without our prior written consent:

• reproduce, republish, or redistribute substantial portions of the content, or offer it as part of a paid product;
• remove or alter any copyright, attribution, or source notice;
• use automated means to harvest, scrape, or bulk-download content beyond what our robots.txt and llms.txt permit;
• frame or mirror any part of the Site, or use our name or marks to suggest endorsement;
• interfere with the Site’s operation, probe or test its security, or submit false or automated form entries.

The Site and its content — text, illustrations, the MassArbitration name and mark, design, and code — are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws. Except for the licence above, no rights are granted to you. Third-party names, marks, cases, and publications referred to on the Site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification and commentary only.

Our horizontal logo lockup may be reproduced without further permission when citing or linking to the Site, provided it is not altered and does not suggest endorsement.

When you subscribe you agree that we may send you the briefing and occasional service messages at the email address you provide, and that we may contact you at the phone number you provide to verify that you work in the field. You may unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email or by writing to privacy@massarbitration.co. How we handle the details you give us is described in the Privacy Policy.

If you send us a correction, tip, or other material, you grant us a perpetual, royalty-free licence to use it in connection with the Services, and you confirm you have the right to do so. We do not accept confidential information through the Site; do not send us anything privileged.

The Site links to court opinions, law firm publications, provider rules, and other external resources. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content or their handling of your data. The “Add to Preferred Sources” button is provided by Google and is subject to Google’s terms; our use of it and other third-party services is described in the Privacy Policy.

THE SERVICES AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, TIMELINESS, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY SUMMARY OF A DECISION, RULE, OR FEE SCHEDULE IS CURRENT OR CORRECT. THE LAW IN THIS AREA CHANGES QUICKLY AND MATERIAL MAY BE OUT OF DATE.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER WE NOR OUR OFFICERS, CONTRIBUTORS, OR SUPPLIERS WILL BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF OR RELIANCE ON THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICES WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS (US$100). SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THESE LIMITATIONS, SO THEY MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU IN FULL.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from any claim, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Services, or any material you submit to us.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising out of the Services or these Terms will be brought exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to their jurisdiction. Given the subject matter of this Site, we note expressly that these Terms contain no arbitration clause and no class action waiver.

If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver of it.

We may change, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time. We may revise these Terms by posting an updated version with a new effective date; material changes will be flagged on the Site or by email to subscribers. Continued use after a change means you accept the revised Terms.
