CLR2WRK provides you with secure, safe online storage for your important personal employment, training, and basic health, and medical records, and other vital documents. You should familiarize yourself with these terms because they establish your rights and responsibilities as a Subscriber. CLR2WRK understands that the privacy and security of your personal records are important, and it uses the most advanced security technology available to protect that privacy. However, please keep in mind that your records are only secure if you protect your password and change your password frequently. As you navigate CLR2WRK’s web site and use the services offered, do not hesitate to contact CLR2WRK if you have any questions. This Terms and Conditions of Use Agreement (Agreement) between you and CLR2WRK sets forth the general terms and conditions governing your use of the CLR2WRK site ("Site") and the products and services available on the Site.

CLR2WRK shall confirm such termination or suspension by subsequent written notice. 5.5 The termination of this Agreement will not affect any provision of this Agreement which, by its wording or its nature, is intended to remain effective and to continue to operate in the event of termination of this Agreement, and will not prejudice or affect the rights of any party against another with respect to any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

BINDING ARBITRATION. A. Purpose: If you have a Dispute (as defined below) with CLR2WRK, you or CLR2WRK may elect to arbitrate that Dispute in accordance with the terms of this Arbitration Provision rather than litigate the Dispute in court. Arbitration means you will have a fair hearing before a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury. B. Definitions: As used in this Provision, the term “Dispute” means any dispute, claim or controversy between you and CLR2WRK, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, negligence or any other intentional tort), or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Arbitration Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the class action waiver clause provided in Section E(2) below). “Dispute” is to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced. As used in this Provision, “CLR2WRK” means Clear 2 Work LLC, its officers, directors, employees and agents, and all entities using the brand name “CLR2WRK”. As used in this Provision, the term “Arbitration Provision” means all the terms of this Section 13. C. Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding/Selection of Arbitrator: If you or CLR2WRK elect to resolve your Dispute with CLR2WRK through arbitration pursuant to this Arbitration Provision, the party initiating the arbitration proceeding may select from the following arbitration organizations, which will apply the appropriate rules for consumer claims to arbitrate the Dispute: 1. American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), 335 Madison Ave., Floor 10, New York, NY 10017-4605, 1-800-778-7879, www.adr.org 2. National Arbitration Forum (“NAF”), P.O. Box 50191, Minneapolis, MN 55405-0191, 1-800-474-2371, www.arbitration-forum.com D. Arbitration Procedures: Because the service provided to you by CLR2WRK concerns interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), not state arbitration law, will govern the arbitrability of all Disputes. However, applicable federal law or the law of the state where you receive the service from CLR2WRK may apply to and govern the substance of any Disputes. Any state statutes pertaining to arbitration, however, will not be applicable under this Arbitration Provision. If there is a conflict between this Arbitration Provision and the rules of the arbitration organization chosen, the rules contained in this Arbitration Provision will govern. If the arbitration organization that you selected will not enforce this Arbitration Provision as written, it cannot serve as the arbitration organization to resolve your dispute with CLR2WRK. If this situation arises, the parties shall agree on a substitute arbitration organization. In the event that the parties are unable to agree, the parties shall mutually petition a court of appropriate jurisdiction to appoint a service that will enforce the Provision as written. If there is a conflict between this Arbitration Provision and the rest of the Subscriber Agreement, this Arbitration Provision will govern. You and CLR2WRK agree that a single arbitrator will resolve the Dispute. You should know that participating in arbitration may result in limited discovery depending on the rules of the arbitration organization that is chosen to resolve the Dispute. The arbitrator will apply applicable statutes of limitation (as modified by this Arbitration Provision), will honor claims of privilege recognized by law and will take reasonable steps to protect customer account information and other confidential or proprietary information, including the use of protective orders to prohibit disclosure outside of the arbitration, if requested to do so by you or CLR2WRK. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless one is requested by a party. Upon a request by you or CLR2WRK, the arbitrator will provide a brief statement of the reasons for the award. An award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties. If an award granted by the arbitrator exceeds Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars ($75,000.00), either party can appeal that award to a three-arbitrator panel administered by the same arbitration organization. The members of the three-arbitrator panel will be selected according to the rules of the arbitration organization. The party wishing to appeal the decision of the single arbitrator shall have thirty (30) days from the date of entry of the written arbitration award to notify the arbitration organization, through a written notice of appeal, that it is exercising its right to appeal. The arbitration organization will then notify the other party that the award has been appealed.
