The employer can then verify the origin of each professional’s documents using the digital fingerprint. The Platform allows for a quicker credentialing process so that professionals do not have to wait for administrative delays in the credentialing process.

​

Dispute Resolution

*PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY AS IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS*

Most user concerns can be resolved quickly and to Your satisfaction by emailing support at success@archivecore.com. In the unlikely event that our support team is unable to resolve a complaint You may have (or if We have not been able to resolve a dispute with You after attempting to do so informally), including but not limited to any alleged breach of these Terms, You and agree to resolve the dispute through binding arbitration virtually before a single arbitrator, in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association and the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia without reference to its conflict of laws provisions. Arbitration, which is often less expensive, faster, and less formal than a lawsuit in court, uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award, and may, but do not have to, award legal fees, arbitrator’s fees and costs and other costs incurred by the party that does not win the dispute.

​

Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis; class arbitrations and class actions are not permitted. Any arbitration will be strictly confidential and neither party will disclose to any person (other than necessary to carry out the arbitration) the existence of the dispute or any aspect of the dispute.

This agreement to arbitrate will not preclude You or ArchiveCore from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration, including without limitation orders to stay a court action, compel arbitration or confirm an arbitral award, from a court of competent jurisdiction. Furthermore, this agreement to arbitrate will not preclude You or ArchiveCore from applying to a court of competent jurisdiction for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, or other interim or conservatory relief, as necessary. THE PROPER VENUE FOR ANY ACTION PERMITTED UNDER THIS SUBSECTION REGARDING “EQUITABLE RELIEF” WILL BE THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS LOCATED IN THE COMMONWEALTH OF VIRGINIA; THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE VENUE AND PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS.

​

Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate: ArchiveCore may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Platform or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright, or patent rights) without first engaging in the informal dispute-resolution process described above.

​

Notwithstanding the above, You can decline or “opt out” of the alternative dispute resolution process described above by contacting success@archivecore.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and stating that You (first and last name) decline this dispute resolution process.

​

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY NOT OPTING-OUT OF THE ALTERNATIVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCESS DESCRIBED, YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO JURY TRIAL TO WHICH YOU MAY OTHERWISE BE ENTITLED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACTION OR LITIGATION IN ANY WAY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE.

​

General Contract Terms

​

You shall give any notice to ArchiveCore by email to: success@archivecore.com. Notice to ArchiveCore shall be effective upon receipt of notice by ArchiveCore.

​

NO INADVERTENT WAIVER

The failure of ArchiveCore to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of future enforcement of that right or provision. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative of ArchiveCore. Except as expressly set forth in these Terms, the exercise by either party of any of its remedies under these Terms will be without prejudice to its other remedies under these Terms or otherwise. If, for any reason, a court of competent jurisdiction finds any provision of these Terms invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the other provisions of these Terms will remain in full force and effect.

​

SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of these Terms remain in full force, provided that the essential terms and conditions remain valid, binding and enforceable and the economic and legal substance of the transactions contemplated by these Terms are materially preserved.

​
