SECTION 17 | MANDATORY ARBITRATION, CLASS ACTION WAIVER, AND OPT-OUT
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
ย
Application.
You and ThumbPRO agree that this Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of these arbitration provisions. This Section 18 is intended to be interpreted broadly and governs any and all disputes between us including claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the relationship between us and you, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory; claims that arose before this Agreement or any prior agreement (including claims related to advertising); and claims that may arise after the termination of this Agreement. The only disputes excluded from this broad prohibition are the litigation of certain intellectual property and small court claims, as provided below.
ย
Initial Dispute Resolution. ย
Most disputes can be resolved without resort to arbitration. If you have any dispute with us, you agree that before taking any formal action, you shall contact us at info@baseballthumbguard.com and provide a brief, written description of the dispute and your contact information (including your username, if your dispute relates to an account). Except for intellectual property and small claims court claims, the parties agree to use their best efforts to settle any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement directly through consultation with ThumbPRO, and good faith negotiations shall be a condition precedent to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
ย
Binding Arbitration.
If the parties do not reach an agreed-upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated under the Initial Dispute Resolution provision above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration as the sole means to resolve claims, (except as provided in Section 18(h) below) subject to the terms set forth below. Specifically, all claims arising out of or relating to this Agreement (including this Agreementโs formation, performance, and breach), the partiesโ relationship with each other, and/or your use of ThumbPRO Services shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered by the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures (โJAMSโ). The JAMS rules shall govern paymentย of all arbitration fees...
ThumbPRO will not seek its attorneysโ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines that your claim is frivolous.
ย
Arbitratorโs Powers.
The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Agreement including any claim that all or any part of this Agreement is void or voidable, whether a claim is subject to arbitration, or the question of waiver by litigation conduct. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitratorโs award shall be written and shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
ย
Filing a Demand. ย
To start an arbitration, you must do the following: (i) Write a Demand for Arbitration (โDemandโ) that (a) briefly explains the dispute, (b) lists your and ThumbPROโs names and addresses, (c) specify the amount of money in dispute, if applicable, (d) identify the requested location for a hearing if an in-person hearing is requested, and (e) state what you want in the dispute; (ii) send one copy of the Demand to JAMS, along with a copy of these Terms and the filing fee required by JAMS; and (iii) send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to us at info@baseballthumbguard.com, Attn: Legal Department; Re: Arbitration Demand.
ย
Acknowledgment.
The parties understand that, absent this mandatory arbitration provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. You further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court. If you are a resident of the United States, arbitration may take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing, unless you and we both agree to another location, telephonic arbitration, or similar method. For individuals residing outside the United States, arbitration shall be initiated in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States, and you and ThumbPRO agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Middlesex County, Concord, Massachusetts, United States, in order to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.
ย
Class Action Waiver.
The parties further agree that the arbitration shall be conducted in the partyโs respective individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and the parties expressly waive their right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. YOU AND THUMBPRO AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
ย
Exception for Litigation of Intellectual Property and Small Claims Court Claims.
Notwithstanding the partiesโ decision to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may bring enforcement actions, validity determinations or claims arising from or relating to theft, piracy or unauthorized use of intellectual property in state or federal court with jurisdiction or in the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to protect its intellectual property rights (โintellectual property rightsโ means patents, copyrights, moral rights, trademarks, and trade secrets, but not privacy or publicity rights). Either party may also seek relief in small claims court in Middlesex County, Massachusetts for disputes or claims within the scope of that courtโs jurisdiction.
ย
30-Day Right to Opt-Out. ย
You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to info@baseballthumbguard.com with the subject line, โARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER OPT-OUT.โ The notice must be sent within of thirty (30) days of your first use of the Service or within 30 days of changes to this section being announced on the Site or Platform, whichever is later. Otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, ThumbPRO also shall not be bound by them.
ย
Changes to this Section.
ThumbPRO shall provide notice of any changes to this section by posting on the Services, Website, or Platform. Amendments shall become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the ThumbPRO Services, Platform, and/or Site or immediately if sent to you by email or text. Changes to this section shall otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on โChanges to This Sectionโ is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver, and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section in existence after you began using the ThumbPRO Services, ThumbPRO Platform, and/or ThumbPRO Property.
ย
Survival. ย
This Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver section shall survive any termination of your use of the ThumbPRO Services, ThumbPRO Platform, and/or ThumbPRO Product.
ย
SECTION 18 | SEVERABILITY. ย
If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been included.
SECTION 19 | RELATIONSHIP OF THE PARTIES. ย
Nothing in this Agreement establishes any relationship of partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise or agency between you and ThumbPRO. You do not have the power to bind ThumbPRO or incur obligations on ThumbPROโs behalf without ThumbPROโs prior written consent. ThumbPRO does not have the power to bind you or incur obligations on your behalf without your prior written consent (including consent given through the Site or ThumbPRO Platform).
ย

GENERAL SHIPPING INFORMATION
ThumbPRO ships products globally, providing customers with a range of shipping options through our platform.
Shipping Responsibility
Once an order leaves the facility, your order is the responsibility of the shipping carrier. ThumbPRO is not responsible for lost or stolen packages. However, under certain circumstances, and upon request, we may file a loss claim with our shipping insurance. Should a loss claim be requested, you will be required to sign a loss verification affidavit via a link we provide you. If the insurance company rules in your favor, we will issue a resend of the product or a full refund, depending on your preference.
ย
Delivery Estimates
We do not guarantee the arrival date of any order. No carrier, including but not limited to FedEx 2nd Day and Overnight services, offers a guaranteed delivery date. Therefore, we are not responsible for deliveries considered "late." All delivery dates provided by carriers are estimates and may be affected by factors such as weather and other unforeseen events.
ย
International Shipping
We offer international shipping via DHL. All shipping prices, duties, and related fees are included in the price at checkout, providing a seamless shopping experience for our international customers.
ย
Shipping Prices
ThumbPRO reserves the right to change our shipping prices at any time without prior notice. This flexibility allows us to adapt to changing market conditions and shipping costs. The price charged for a Product will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in the order receipt and order confirmation emails. ThumbPRO may change prices at any time without notice. Price increases will only apply to orders placed after such changes.
ย
Weekend and Holiday Shipping
Our operations do not include shipping on weekends. Orders for expedited shipping (e.g., FedEx) placed after 4:00 pm EST on Fridays, over the weekend, or on federal and weekday holidays will incur additional delivery days accounting for the non-operational days. This policy ensures transparency in our shipping process and sets realistic expectations for delivery times.
ย
CHARGES AND TAXES
ThumbPRO charges sales tax where required by law. If you are shipping to states where sales tax is charged, the appropriate charges may be added to your merchandise total and displayed in your order. Prices for the Products may or may not include charges for shipping and handling.

ThumbPRO is not responsible for any reimbursement for payment of the express delivery price if the service requested was not delivered on time.

Customers desiring to return or refuse delivery will be best serviced by receiving the delivery, initiating a return request by following the return through our contact page here.
