We will not discriminate against you if you exercise your privacy rights.
Upon receiving your request, we will need to verify your identity to determine you are the same person about whom we have the information in our system. These verification efforts require us to ask you to provide information so that we can match it with information you have previously provided us. For instance, depending on the type of request you submit, we may ask you to provide certain information so that we can match the information you provide with the information we already have on file, or we may contact you through a communication method (e.g. phone or email) that you have previously provided to us. We may also use other verification methods as the circumstances dictate.
We will only use personal information provided in your request to verify your identity or authority to make the request. To the extent possible, we will avoid requesting additional information from you for the purposes of verification.

You agree to submit to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute, controversy or claim (each, a “Dispute”) arising out of or in connection with this Privacy Notice or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation, or validity thereof (including the determination of the scope or applicability of this Privacy Notice to arbitrate), your rights and obligations under this Privacy Notice, our website, the use of our website, and/or the information, services and/or products that may be provided by or through or in connection with our website. The arbitration will be held in San Francisco, California, before one arbitrator on an individual basis and not as a class action. You expressly waive any right you may have to arbitrate a dispute as a class action. You also expressly waive your right to a jury trial. You and Rcoz shall agree on one arbitrator to conduct the arbitration. In the event the parties cannot agree on an arbitrator, the arbitrator will be selected in accordance with applicable arbitration rules. Each party shall be responsible for its own attorney, expert and other fees, unless such fees are awarded by the arbitrator to the prevailing party.

Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitrator’s award. If any part of this clause, other than waivers of class action rights, is deemed or found to be unenforceable for any reason, the remainder shall remain enforceable.

This Privacy Notice provides that all disputes will be resolved by binding arbitration and not in court or by jury trial. IF A DISPUTE IS ARBITRATED, YOU GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE AS A CLASS REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS MEMBER ON ANY CLASS CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST ASSOCIATION ENTITIES, INCLUDING ANY RIGHT TO CLASS ARBITRATION OR ANY CONSOLIDATION OF INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATIONS. WITHOUT LIMITATION, THIS INCLUDES GIVING UP YOUR RIGHTS TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AS SET FORTH IN ANY STATE STATUTE.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, this Privacy Notice is governed by the laws of the United States of America and the State of California, excluding any law or conflicts of law principle that would apply the law of another jurisdiction. To the extent a dispute is not governed by the Dispute Resolution clause, you hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of state or federal courts in San Francisco, California, in all disputes arising out of or relating to the use of our website or under this Privacy Notice; provided, however, that in the event Rcoz is sued or joined by a third party in any other court or in any other forum in respect of any matter which may give rise to a claim by Rcoz hereunder, you consent to the jurisdiction of such court or forum over any claim which may be asserted by Rcoz therein. You irrevocably consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction by such courts in any such action. In addition, and notwithstanding the foregoing, you irrevocably waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that you may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action, or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

Use of our website is unauthorized in any jurisdiction that does not give effect to all provisions of this Privacy Notice, including without limitation this paragraph. To the extent a claim is not governed by the Dispute Resolution clause, Rcoz and you each hereby waive the right to a trial by jury in any court and in any suit, action or proceeding, whether in tort, contract, or otherwise, in which any such party is a party, as to any claim arising out of or in connection with this Privacy Notice, your or Rcoz’s rights and obligations under this Privacy Notice, our website, use of our website, and/or the services and/or products that may be provided by or through or in connection with our website.
Each party hereto hereby undertakes not to cause any harm to the other party’s reputation in the market and not to make, whether directly or indirectly (including through any of its affiliates, officers, employees or directors), any negative or disparaging remarks about such party or any of its affiliates, officers, employees, directors (in each case, in their capacities as such), products, services or business practices.
