Arbitration Agreement; Class Action Waiver; Governing Law

1. Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Alibrary in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Alibrary agree that any and all disputes arising in connection with this Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes, but is not limited to all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms or the Service, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND ALIBRARY ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
2. Exceptions. You and Alibrary agree that nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit either of our rights to: (i) bring an individual action in small claims court; (ii) pursue enforcement actions through applicable federal, state, or local agencies where such actions are available; (iii) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (iv) to file suit in a court of law to address intellectual property infringement claims.
3. Arbitration. Any arbitration between you and Alibrary will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "ICA Rules") of the Indian Council of Arbitration ("ICA"), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the ICA. The ICA Rules and filing forms are available online at http://www.icaindia.co.in/, by contacting Alibrary

or by Indian Council of Arbitration (ICA)
Room 112, Federation House Tansen Marg
New Delhi 110001
Phone No.( 91 011 23350087, 23319849,)

Email ica@ficci.com

 

1. Arbitration Notice; Process. If you elect to seek arbitration, you must first send to Alibrary, by certified mail or FedEx (signature required), If Alibrary elects to seek arbitration, it will send a written notice to the email address you provided to Alibrary for your account. An arbitration notice, whether sent by you or by Alibrary, must: (i) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (ii) set forth the specific relief sought. You and Alibrary each agree to use good faith efforts to directly resolve any claim, but if we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the notice is received, you or Alibrary may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. During any arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by Alibrary or you must not be disclosed to the arbitrator. You may download or copy a form notice and a form to initiate arbitration at http://www.icaindia.co.in/htm/role.htm. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Alibrary will pay you: (A) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (B) the last written settlement amount offered by Alibrary in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (C) `25,000, whichever is highest.
2. Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Alibrary will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee unless your claim is for greater than ` 100000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the ICA Rules. Any arbitration hearings will take place at a location to be agreed upon in the city of your billing address provided to Alibrary as part of your account registration, or, if no city was provided, in the ICA office nearest to you, but if the claim is for `1,00000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (i) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (ii) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (iii) by an in-person hearing as established by the ICA Rules. If 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 then the payment of all fees will be governed by the ICA Rules. In such case, you agree to reimburse Alibrary for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the ICA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 15 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

Modifications. If Alibrary makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to Alibrary's address for notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of Alibrary’s notice to you of the change, in which case your account with Alibrary will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject will survive.
4. No Class Actions. YOU AND ALIBRARY 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. Further, unless both you and Alibrary agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THE CLASS ACTION WAIVER ABOVE WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THIS AGREEMENT (the “Opt- Out Deadline”).

5. Enforceability. If any or all of this arbitration agreement provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration agreement provision will be void and, in that case, you and Alibrary both agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described below will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.
6. Governing Law; Venue. These Terms and any action arising out of these Terms or your use of the Service, whether interpreted in a court of law or in arbitration, will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the India without regard to conflict of law principles.

All capitalized terms used in these Digital Sales Terms and not defined herein shall have the definition set forth in the TOS.

Access to your Publications for which you charge End Users a fee is referred to in these Digital Sales Terms as a “Paid Purchase.” A Paid Purchase may be a purchase of a single edition of a Publication or a subscription to a Publication (a “Paid Subscription”). It is your responsibility to set the terms of Paid Purchases, such as duration, price, etc., and to contract directly with End Users regarding such terms via an enforceable agreement (“End User Agreement”). You understand and agree that all End Users must have an active and valid account to use the Alibrary Service; your agreement with End Users shall require the End User to confirm that and shall not modify or effect in any way the End User’s account with Alibrary.

DRM protection

DRM FOR PDF Security and Rights Management Systems

PDF DRM, Security, Protection and Distribution Management technologies are used as a copyright enforcement mechanism and sometimes as an alternative mechanism to copyright law.

Granting exclusive ownership rights to authors and creators through Copyrights, Security and DRM, allows for a better chance of enrichment of more and more creative and cultural products, and they can nominally compensate their efforts and costs.

Intellectual efforts for producing a product or artefact must be appropriately prizes, and we must prevent people to benefit from such products free of charge. PDF Security and DRM provide a better base for protecting contents against illegal distributions, usages and sells. PDF Security and Digital Rights Management (DRM) systems are provided to ease distribution of PDF documents for end users by enforcing some usage and distribution limitations like printing, copying, save, transfer and others.

Indian copyright law provides exceptions to libraries for use of copyrighted works under the statutory fair dealing provisions of the copyright Act (Section 52) as well as under the judicially created fair use exception. Broadly the law permits use of copyrighted works by libraries for the following purposes:

Research and education;

Instructions, teaching and training;

Private study;

Enabling access to the disabled;

Activities of education institution;

Review and criticism;

Searching and data mining;

Storage and preservation; and

Access to knowledge.
