To the extent permitted by law, before you may begin arbitration with respect to a dispute involving any aspect of these Terms and Conditions, you shall notify Plasticity, and any other party to the dispute for the purpose of seeking dispute resolution. If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days after the initial notice, then a party may proceed in accordance with the following:

  1. Any unresolved dispute arising under the terms of these Terms and Conditions shall be decided by arbitration through the services of the American Arbitration Association (hereinafter referred to as the “AAA”).
  2. Notice of demand for an arbitration hearing shall be in writing and properly served upon the parties to these Terms and Conditions. Arbitration hearings shall be held in the Commonwealth of Virginia, Fairfax County, at a location mutually agreeable to the parties.
  3. There shall be one (1) arbitrator to hear the matter.

The party giving notice of the arbitration demand shall be first to indicate its selection.
  4. All costs of the arbitration and the AAA shall be borne equally by both parties to these Terms and Conditions, regardless of the final decision. The defaulting party as determined by the arbitrator, shall pay all other costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney's fees, incurred by the party in enforcing its rights under these Terms and Conditions.
  5. THE PARTIES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN 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 arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the disputes, claims or controversies will not be subject to Arbitration and must be litigated in state or federal court located in Fairfax, Virginia.
  6. You affirm that you are older than 18 years of age and are fully able and competent to enter into the terms, conditions, obligations, affirmations, representations, and warranties set forth in these Terms and Conditions, and to abide by and comply with these Terms and Conditions.

This is a SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENT (this “Supplement”) between Plasticity and U.S. Government customers (the “Government”) and applies to the Government's use of the Services under Plasticity's Terms and Conditions. Terms not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Terms and Conditions.

The reason for this Supplement is that a U.S. Government instrumentality is obligated to follow federal laws, regulations, and practices, among which are those relating to ethics, advertising and endorsements, tax exemption and immunity, limitations on indemnification, fiscal law constraints, governing law and jurisdiction, dispute resolution, and assignment of contracts.

Plasticity and the Government (collectively, the “Parties”) agree that modifications to the Terms and Conditions are appropriate to accommodate the Government's legal status, its public mission, and other unique circumstances. Therefore, the Terms and Conditions are modified by this Supplement as follows.

  1. Government Entity

As it relates to the Government's use of the Services, the word “you” in the Terms and Conditions shall mean the Government itself and shall not apply to, nor bind (i) the individual(s) who utilize Plasticity's Services on the Government's behalf, or (ii) any individual users who happen to be employed by, or otherwise associated with, the Government. Plasticity will look solely to the Government to enforce any violation or breach of the Terms and Conditions by such individuals, subject to federal law.

  1. Advertisements

Plasticity agrees not to serve or display any third-party commercial advertisements or solicitations on any pages within Plasticity's website that display content uploaded by or under the control of the Government.

  1. Taxes

The Parties understand that the FAR and DFAR require that Plasticity not include tax in Government billings unless the tax has been determined by the Government to be proper for payment.

  1. Indemnification, Liability, Statute of Limitations

Any provisions in the Terms and Conditions related to indemnification, damages, attorneys’ fees, filing deadlines, defense of lawsuits, collection expenses, and settlement are hereby waived. Liability of either party for any breach of the Terms and Conditions as modified by this Supplement, or any claim, demand, suit or proceeding arising from the Terms and Conditions or this Supplement, shall be determined under the Federal Tort Claims Act, Contract Disputes Act, or other governing federal authority. Federal Statute of Limitations provisions shall apply to any claim, demand, suit or proceeding arising from the Terms and Conditions or this Supplement.

  1. Governing Law and Forum

The Terms and Conditions and this Supplement shall be governed by, and interpreted and enforced in accordance with, applicable U.S. federal laws without reference to conflict of laws. To the extent permitted by federal law, the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia, including its choice of law rules, will apply in the absence of applicable federal law. Any arbitration, mediation or other dispute resolution provision in the Terms and Conditions is hereby waived. The forum for purposes of resolving claims and disputes will be determined in accordance with federal law.

  1. No Automatic Renewal

Plasticity agrees to waive any provisions in the Terms and Conditions, if any, allowing Plasticity to automatically charge the Government upon a renewal date associated with the Government's account. Plasticity agrees to remove any auto-renew default setting for the Government whose account details designates an email address that ends in .gov, .mil, .fed, or .us. Instead, Plasticity will notify the Government to allow the Government to determine if funds are available and if the Services will be needed for a renewal period.

  1. Continuity of Services During Dispute

Plasticity agrees to waive the language that would otherwise permit Plasticity to terminate the Services in the event of an alleged breach of the Terms and Conditions by the Government. Instead, recourse against the Government for any alleged breach of the Terms and Conditions must be made under the terms of the Federal Tort Claims Act or as a dispute under the Contract Disputes Act, as applicable. During the resolution of the dispute, Plasticity shall proceed diligently with performance of the Services, pending final resolution of any request for relief, claim, appeal, or action arising under the Services and any Subscription Term, and comply with any decision of the Government's Contracting Officer.

  1. Limitation of Liability

The Parties agree that nothing in the limitation of liability provision or elsewhere in the Terms and Conditions in any way grants Plasticity a waiver from, release of, or limitation of, liability pertaining to any past, current or future violation of federal law.

  1. No Endorsement

Plasticity agrees that the Government's name, seals, logos, trademarks, service marks, trade names, and the fact that the Government has a presence on the Plasticity websites and uses Plasticity's Services, shall not be used by Plasticity in such a manner as to state or imply (in the judgment of a reasonable person) that Plasticity's Services are endorsed, sponsored or recommended by the Government or by any other element of the Government, or are considered by the Government to be superior to any other Services on the market. Except for pages whose design and content is under the control of the Government, Plasticity agrees not to display any Government names, seals, trademarks, logos, service marks, and trade names on Plasticity's homepage or elsewhere on Plasticity's websites unless permission to do so has been granted by the Government or by other relevant federal Government authority. Plasticity may list the Government's name in a publicly available customer list on its homepage or elsewhere, so long as the name is not displayed in a more prominent fashion than that of any other third-party customer.

  1. Assignment

Neither party may assign its obligations under the Terms and Conditions as modified by this Supplement to any third party without prior written consent of the other. If, however, the Government is using any of Plasticity's free Services only, Plasticity may, without the Government's consent, assign the Terms and Conditions as modified by this Supplement to an affiliate or to a successor or acquirer, as the case may be, related to a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization or consolidation, or the sale of all or substantially all of its assets. Any transfer of Plasticity assets related to the Government's paid subscription contract requires review and consent by the Government, under the procedures found in the FAR and the DFAR.

  1. Precedence; Further Supplements

If there is any conflict between this Supplement and the Terms and Conditions or between this Supplement and other terms, rules or policies on Plasticity's websites or related to the Services, this Supplement shall prevail. This Supplement constitutes a mutually agreed upon supplement to the Terms and Conditions; language indicating it alone is the entire agreement between the Parties is waived.
