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.

Black Pages Directory and Black Pages: Resolution of Disputes. Section XXXI

If a dispute arises between you and Black Pages Directory, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Accordingly, you and Rent Choice 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 Sites, 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 Las Vegas, Nevada. 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 any purchased service within 48 hours of said purchase by sending an electronic communication to support@blackpagesdirectory.com with the header "OPT OUT" and in the body your Transaction ID, and complete name (first, last name). A full refund will be issued thereafter within 30 calendar days.

After we receive notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee up to and no more than $1.00. 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 subject to the condition that such fees are no more than $50.00. 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 Southern District of Nevada or the state courts of Clark County, Nevada 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 Sites shall be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Nevada, 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 Sites for any reason, such dispute shall be submitted to and resolved solely in the state or federal courts located in Las Vegas, Nevada 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 Black Pages Directory and Black Pages 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.

Black Pages Directory: Free-Speech Notice Section XXXVI


ANTI-SLAPP DISCLAIMER
BLACK PAGES DIRECTORY, including its Authors, Reporters, and Publishers, and all agents, assigns, and representatives, acting in concert with, or on behalf enjoy absolute free-speech rights.
THE FREE-SPEECH CONTENT PRODUCED AND PUBLISHED FOR THE BLACK PAGES DIRECTORY WEBSITE (BLACKPAGESDIRECTORY.COM) IS PROTECTED BY THE 1ST AMENDMENT OF THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, AS WELL AS CALIFORNIA ANTI-SLAPP STATUES, AND ANTI-SLAPP STATUTES IN THE NEXUS STATE, WHICH PROVIDES IMMUNITY AND PROTECTION FOR "ANY AND ALL free speech in direct connection with an issue of public concern.".

NEW YORK TIMES STANDARD AND PUBLIC FIGURES
In New York Times Co. v. Sullivan, 376 U.S. 254, 269 et seq. [11 L. Ed. 2d 686, 700 et seq.], the Supreme Court determined that public officials/figures may not recover damages for defamation unless they show defendant acted with actual malice. The content hereon is offered without costs, and the Publisher(s) makes no guarantee as to the accuracy of said content. Persons employed by a state, city, or local municipality, whose names and official duties are published online, have likewise thrusted themselves into the public sphere and/or injected themselves into a matter of public interest. Likewise, persons seeking licensing, certification, or approval of for-profit colleges and/or vocational colleges, and their respective Campus Directors, and Instructors, have similarly thrusted in the public as public figures. Please refer to Curtis Publishing Co. v. Butts (1967) 388 U.S. 130, 155 [18 L. Ed. 2d 1094, 1111, 87 S. Ct. 1975]
FAIR USE OF COPYRIGHT IMAGES
Fair use is a legal doctrine that promotes freedom of expression by permitting the unlicensed use of copyright-protected works in certain circumstances. Section 107 of the Copyright Act provides the statutory framework for determining whether something is a fair use and identifies certain types of uses such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research as examples of activities that may qualify as fair use.
PUBLIC FIGURE DOCTRINE AND USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA
Publishers of this website adhere to the strict interpretation of the public figure doctrine. Any person(s) who creates, establishes, and publicly speaks and/or comments on ANY topic(s) from a social media platform or publicly avails himself/herself to such services by listing his/her name, is deemed to have self-marketed himself/herself as a Public Figure. The public figure doctrine recognizes that the state interest in protecting certain persons classed as public figures is less than in the case of purely private individuals. A purely private person HAS NO social media account(s) and DOES NOT avail himself/herself to ANY such platforms. Refer to [Schultz v. Reader's Digest Ass'n, 468 F. Supp. 551, 555 (D. Mich. 1979)].
MARITAL DOCTRINE
Publishers of this website adhere to the strict interpretation of the Marital Doctrine. The marital doctrine affirms the permanent union of two persons in a lawful marriage. Upon marriage, two individual persons become a single unified couple by law. THEREFORE, all acts of one person SHALL BE IMPUTED TO THE OTHER PERSON. If one person speaks, both persons shall be deemed to have spoken! The character, endorsements, integrity, and associations of one person shall be imputed to the other person, and vice-versa UNTIL such persons are lawfully divorced, or one person publicly denounces the union to the other person by virtue of a lawfully filed divorce decree before a court of impersonam jurisdiction.
