PSA: Arbitration Clauses
For all my fellow Tumblrites out there (second verse, same as the first):
The first thing you should do when you read any contract is look for language that specifies arbitration of any disputes between you and the company.
The second thing you should immediately do is look for the opt-out language in the same section of the contract.
The third thing is follow those processes to opt-out and keep a record of you notifying the company that you are opting out of the arbitration language per the agreement as agreed to on (date). And keep a copy of that agreement as well! Companies like to try and sneak unilateral changes past people and state that continued use of the product or service constitutes acceptance.
Protect your legal rights!
(And while you're at it, vote for anyone who advocates taking up the limitation of arbitration abuse at the legislative level!)
