You agree to comply with this DMCA process in the event you are involved in any claim of copyright infringement to which the DMCA may be applicable.
If you believe in good faith that your work has been copied in a way that constitutes copyright infringement, please provide our DMCA agent with the written information specified below. Please note that this procedure is exclusively for notifying the Company that your copyrighted material has been infringed. We do not and will not make any legal decisions about the validity of your claim for infringement or the possible defenses to a claim.
If we receive a clear and valid notice pursuant to the guidelines set forth below, we will respond by either taking down the allegedly infringing content or blocking access to it. We may contact the notice provider to request additional information.
Under the DMCA, the Company is required to take reasonable steps to notify the user who posted the allegedly infringing content (“Alleged Infringer”).

To file a DMCA notice, the copyright owner must send a written letter by fax, regular mail, or email only. We reserve the right to ignore a notice that is not in compliance with the DMCA, and we may, but are not obligated to, respond to a non-compliant notice.
DMCA notice must:
- Identify specifically the copyrighted work(s) believed to have been infringed (for example, “My copyrighted work is the picture that appears at [list location where material is located].”);
- Identify the content that a copyright owner claims is infringing upon copyrighted work. The copyright owner must provide information reasonably sufficient to enable us to locate the item on the Site. The copyright owner should provide clear screenshots of the allegedly infringing materials for identification purposes only. The information provided should be as detailed as possible;
- Provide information sufficient to permit us to contact the copyright owner directly: name, street address, telephone number, and email (if available);

- Include the following statement: “I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed”;

- ANY DISPUTE FALLING WITHIN THE JURISDICTIONAL SCOPE AND AMOUNT OF AN APPROPRIATE SMALL CLAIMS COURT MUST BE BROUGHT IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; AND
- ANY DISPUTE SEEKING TO ENJOIN INFRINGEMENT OR OTHER MISUSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS MAY BE BROUGHT IN ANY COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION
EACH PARTY MAY PROCEED IN ANY DISPUTE ONLY IN THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS ACTION OR MASS ARBITRATION.
BY ENTERING INTO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, INDEPENDENT OF THE REMAINING PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS, AND BY AGREEING TO A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTIONS OR MASS ARBITRATIONS, EACH OF US IS GIVING UP CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING:
- THE RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT OR HAVE A JURY TRIAL. INSTEAD, WE WILL HAVE A HEARING BEFORE A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR. THERE IS NO JUDGE OR JURY IN ARBITRATION AND THE DISCOVERY AND APPEAL PROCESS IS DIFFERENT.
- THE RIGHT TO PURSUE CLASS ACTIONS, CLASS ARBITRATION OR MASS ARBITRATION, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS.
- Good Faith Negotiations. We always prefer to resolve Disputes by negotiating in good faith. Either party may attempt to resolve a Dispute through good faith negotiations. In the event of a Dispute, each party shall first send written notice of the Dispute to the other party, which includes the party contact’s name, address, email address, phone number and a description of the relief being sought (“Dispute Notice”). Notice by Company will be sent to you at your last known street and mail addresses on file, and notice by you to Company will be sent by email to Company privacy@homeservicesprivacy.com. Within 30 days after delivery of the Dispute Notice (unless mutually agreed by the parties), the parties shall meet virtually at a mutually acceptable date and time. Both of us agree to negotiate personally, individually, and in good faith to try to resolve the Dispute. At no point during this time shall either party initiate litigation or arbitration, except for Disputes subject to injunctive or other equitable relief. If the Parties cannot resolve the Dispute within 60 days of the Dispute Notice, either party may pursue individual arbitration proceedings as described below. Any limitations period will be tolled from the date the Dispute is noticed to the other side until the expiration of this sixty (60) day period. Compliance with and completion of this Good Faith Negotiations provision is a condition precedent and requirement for initiating any arbitration proceedings.
Mutual Arbitration Agreement.
-
- Arbitration of Individual Disputes. Any Dispute which cannot be resolved through good faith negotiations, must be pursued through binding arbitration on an individual basis as described in this Section 10 (the “Arbitration Agreement”). The arbitration shall be administered before a single arbitrator.
- Scope of Arbitrator’s Decision Making. The parties agree that the arbitrator shall decide all Disputes and all related issues excluding: (a) issues expressly reserved for a court decision in these Terms; (b) issues that relate to the scope, validity, and enforceability of the Arbitration Agreement, class action waiver, jury waiver or any of the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement; (c) issues that relate to the arbitrability of any Dispute; (d) whether a Dispute is barred by the statute of limitations or a contractual provision in these Terms; (e) issues related to the scope, application and enforceability of the waiver provisions are for the court to decide or (f) whether filing of a demand for arbitration was authorized by a party. All other issues are for the arbitrator to decide.
- Final and Binding Decision. The decision of the arbitrator will be final and binding and will not have precedential effect. The arbitrator shall not have the authority to award damages outside of those set forth in these Terms. Any final award or judgment may be filed and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties will bear the costs of the arbitration in accordance with the Consumer Arbitration Rules. Any arbitration proceeding may not be consolidated or joined with any other proceeding and will not proceed as a class action, class arbitration or mass arbitration.
- Applicability of the FAA. The parties acknowledge that this Arbitration Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce, and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections 1–16, shall govern the interpretation, enforcement, and proceedings pursuant to this Arbitration Agreement. The parties expressly agree that any and all actions taken under the Arbitration Agreement and related provisions, including but not limited to all filings, orders, judgments, and awards made in any arbitration proceeding, are confidential and may not be disclosed to any third party.
- This Arbitration Agreement provision will survive the termination of these Terms.
10.4 AAA Proceedings. All arbitrations shall be filed with and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules and the Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules (collectively, the “AAA Rules”). For more information, please see the American Arbitration Association website at www.adr.org.
10.5 Mass Arbitrations. If 25 or more arbitration demands asserting the same or substantially similar claims, and seeking the same or substantially similar relief are submitted to AAA with the assistance or coordination of the same law firm(s) or legal entities against either party (a “Mass Filing”), the parties agree (i) to administer the Mass Filing in batches of 10 demands per batch with only one batch filed, processed, and adjudicated at a time; (ii) to designate one arbitrator for each batch; (iii) to accept applicable fees, including any related fee reduction determined by AAA Rules in its discretion; (iv) that no other demands for arbitration that are part of the Mass Filing may be filed, processed, or adjudicated until the prior batch of 10 is adjudicated; (v) that fees associated with a demand for arbitration included in a Mass Filing, including fees owed by us, you and other claimants, shall only be due after your demand for arbitration is included in a set of batch proceedings and that batch is properly designated for filing, processing, and adjudication; (vi) that the staged process of batched proceedings, with each set including 10 demands, shall continue until each demand (including your demand) is adjudicated or otherwise resolved; and (vii) to make good faith efforts to resolve each batch of demands within 180-days, failing which any party may cease arbitration and file in a court of competent jurisdiction.
10.6 Appointment of Arbitrator for Batch Proceedings; Procedural Arbitrators. Arbitrators will be selected in accordance with the applicable AAA Rules. The arbitrator will determine the location for each batch proceeding. The parties agree to cooperate in good faith with each other and with AAA to implement a “batch approach” to provide for an efficient resolution of claims, including the payment of combined reduced fees, set by AAA in its discretion, for each batch of demands.
The parties shall cooperate with each other and with AAA to establish any other processes or procedures that will provide for an efficient resolution of any claims. If the parties cannot agree on a batching process, the parties agree that AAA shall appoint a procedural arbitrator. This “Batch Arbitration” provision shall not increase the number of demands necessary to trigger the applicability of AAA’s Mass Arbitration Supplementary Rules or authorizing class arbitration of any kind.
Company does not agree or consent to class arbitration, mass arbitration, private attorney general arbitration, or arbitration involving joint or consolidated claims under any circumstances. The parties agree that this batching provision is critical to this Section 10. If the batching provision in this Section 10 is found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then Section 10 shall be null and void, and neither party shall be entitled to arbitrate any claim that is a part of the Mass Filing.
10.7 Mediation Following First Batch in a Mass Filing. The results of the first batch of demands will be given to an AAA mediator selected from a group of 5 mediators initially proposed by AAA. We and the counsel for the remaining claimants each have the right to strike one mediator and then rank the remaining mediators, with the highest collectively ranked mediator selected.
The selected mediator is responsible for attempting to resolve the Dispute in the Mass Filing. The Parties will then have 90 days (the “Mediation Period”) to agree on a resolution or substantive methodology for resolving the outstanding demands. If the parties are unable to resolve the outstanding demands during the Mediation Period and cannot agree on a methodology for resolving them through further arbitrations, either we or any remaining claimant may opt out of the arbitration process and have the demand(s) proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction. Notice of the opt-out will be provided in writing within 60 days of the close of the Mediation Period. If neither party opts out and they cannot agree to a method for resolving the remaining demands through further arbitration, the arbitrations will continue with the batching process. Absent notice of an opt-out, the arbitrations will proceed in the order determined by the sequential numbers assigned to demands in the Mass Filing.
10.8 Opt-Out. If you wish to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, you must, within forty-five (45) days of first using the Site or the Content, send an email stating “Request to Opt-Out of Arbitration Agreement” to: privacy@homeservicesprivacy.com.

Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other current or future Arbitration Agreements you may have with us.
10.9 Modification. If we modify this Arbitration Agreement, you may reject that change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of our posting of the change, in which case we will terminate your account and you must stop using the Site, your account, and the Content.
10.10 Applicable Law. Illinois law applies to any arbitration under this Agreement, but the FAA governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement.
10.11 Enforceability. IF ANY OF THE TERMS OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, INCLUDING THIS CLASS ACTION WAIVER, IS DEEMED INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, NEITHER PARTY MAY USE ARBITRATION TO RESOLVE DISPUTES UNDER THESE TERMS AND ALL DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED THROUGH LITIGATION.
11. VENUE FOR LITIGATION
If the Arbitration Agreement is found to be unenforceable or does not apply to a given Dispute, or if you opt out of the Arbitration Agreement as provided in Section 10, then, unless prohibited by applicable law, the proceedings must be brought exclusively in the State of Delaware. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court within the jurisdiction in the State of Delaware for the purpose of litigating such Disputes.
