DISPUTE RESOLUTION
For the purposes of this provision, the term “Dispute” means any dispute, controversy, or claim arising
out of or relating to (i) this Agreement, its interpretation, or the breach, termination, applicability or
validity thereof, (ii) the related order for, purchase, delivery, receipt or use of any product or service
from Synology, or iii) any other dispute arising out of or relating to the relationship between You and
Synology; the term “Synology” means Synology, Inc, its parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, directors,
officers, employees, beneficiaries, agents, assigns, component suppliers (both hardware and
software), and/or any third party who provides products or services purchased from or distributed
by Synology; and the term “You” means the owner or purchaser of the Synology product, or those in
privity with you, such as family members or beneficiaries. For US customers, you and Synology agree
that any Dispute between You and Synology will be resolved exclusively and finally by arbitration
under the current commercial rules of the American Arbitration Association, except as otherwise
provided below. The arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator, and will be limited solely
to the dispute between You and Synology. The arbitration, or any portion of it, will not be consolidated
with any other arbitration and will not be conducted on a class-wide or class action basis. The
arbitration shall be held in King County, Washington State, United States of America by submission
of documents, by telephone, online or in person as determined by the arbitrator at the request of the
parties. The prevailing party in any U.S. or non-U.S. arbitration or other legal action shall receive all
costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees, including any arbitration fee paid by the prevailing party. Any
decision rendered in such arbitration proceedings will be final and binding on the parties, and judgment
may be entered thereon in any court of competent jurisdiction. You understand that, in the absence
of this provision, You would have had a right to litigate Disputes through a court, including the right
to litigate claims on a class-wide or class-action basis, and that You have expressly and knowingly
waived those rights and agreed to resolve any disputes through binding arbitration in accordance
with the provisions of this paragraph. For non-US customers, any Dispute shall be finally resolved
by arbitration conducted by three neutral arbitrators in accordance with the procedures of the R.O.C.
Arbitration Law and related enforcement rules. The arbitration shall take place in Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C.,
and the arbitration proceedings shall be conducted in English or, if both parties so agree, in Mandarin
Chinese. The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties and may be enforced in any
court having jurisdiction.
