1. AEdge SERVICES

1.1. Digital Assets Software and Strategy.

AEdge operates Software that provides Bots that enable you to manage your Digital Asset holdings through the AEdge Platform using AEdge Signals or your Custom Strategy. The Software provides you with tools that allow you to:

place buy/sell orders from your Bot that will automatically cause one or several third party Digital Asset Exchanges to execute Transactions from your Linked Wallet, using the capabilities of third-party public APIs and features of the AEdge Website;
configure the parameters of your Bot, which will automatically cause third-party Digital Asset Exchanges to execute Transactions within those established parameters and without the need for additional human interaction or intervention;
for an additional fee, elect to follow and receive additional information from third parties who use the Software as a platform to distribute their own information to Users who have subscribed to their feed or distribution list; and

1.2. Other AEdge Services.

In addition to the Software, AEdge may make available other products and services from time to time, to persons deemed to be eligible for such services in AEdge’s sole discretion, which shall be subject to such terms and conditions as may be prescribed by AEdge and published on the AEdge Site.

1.3. Scope of Services.

AEdge provides “software-as-a-service” to support your trading of Digital Assets in your Linked Wallet on third party Digital Asset Exchanges you choose. Your Instructions are executed automatically on your behalf. You are solely responsible for determining whether any Digital Asset, strategy, or Transaction is appropriate for you based on your objectives, financial circumstances, risk tolerance, and other factors.

No Investment Advice. AEdge does not provide financial, investment, business, Accounting, tax, legal, or other advice, and you should not treat or rely on the Services as such. AEdge does not recommend that any Digit Asset should be bought, sold, held, or traded by you. AEdge is not a registered investment adviser with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the United States Investment Advisers Act of 1940 or similar statute or regulation of any state or other jurisdiction.
No Exchange or Brokerage. AEdge is not a Digital Asset Exchange, nor an exchange or broker approved by FINRA, nor an “exchange” or “broker” as defined under 15 USCS §78(c) or similar statute or regulation of any state or other jurisdiction, nor a “Money Services Business” governed by FinCEN as defined under 1010.100(ff) or similar money transmitter statute or regulation of any state or other jurisdiction. AEdge has no responsibility for third party Digital Asset Exchanges you select to complete your Transactions. AEdge does not knowingly buy Digital Assets from Users, sell Digital Assets to Users, or facilitate such transactions between Users.
No Custody. You are responsible for your Linked Wallet. You cannot store any Digital Assets, fiat money, or currency of any kind with AEdge. You cannot use AEdge to deposit or withdraw funds from your Linked Wallet. AEdge is not a custodian, bank, trustee, or otherwise a depositary institution.
Approved Digital Assets and Digital Asset Exchange. The Services may be used only with AEdge-approved Digital Assets on approved Digital Asset Exchanges, which may be changed from time to time in AEdge’s discretion. The Services may not be used to trade in securities or commodities.

2. FEES AND BILLING.

2.1. Membership Plans and Fees.

Changes to the Price and Membership Plans. We reserve the right to change our membership plans or adjust pricing for our Services or any components thereof in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this User Agreement, any price changes or changes to your subscription plan will take effect and notice will be provided to you.
Promotions and Discounts. If we offer you a promotion and/or a discount (e.g., a promotional price or bundled subscription), the specific terms of the promotion will be disclosed during your sign-up or in other materials provided to you. We will begin billing your Payment Method for your Membership at the then-current, non-promotional price after your promotion ends unless you cancel prior to the end of your promotion or unless otherwise disclosed by AEdge in our sole and absolute discretion. AEdge may participate in special promotional plans or memberships offered by third parties in conjunction with the provision of their own products and services. AEdge is not responsible for the products and services provided by such third parties. Some membership plans may have differing and/or additional conditions and limitations, which will be disclosed at your sign-up or in other communications made available to you. You can find specific details regarding your AEdge membership by visiting the AEdge Site.

2.2. Automatic Renewal.

Your membership will continue and automatically renew until terminated. You must cancel your membership before it renews in order to avoid billing of the membership fees for the next billing cycle (see “Cancellation” below).

2.3. Billing.

Billing Cycle. The membership and/or subscription fee for the AEdge Services and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of the Services, such as taxes and possible administrative or transaction fees, will be charged to your Payment Method on the billing date. The length of your billing cycle will depend on the type of subscription that you choose when you sign-up for the Service. Membership fees are fully earned upon payment. In some cases your payment date may change, for example if your Payment Method has not successfully settled or if your paid membership began on a day not contained in a given month. We may authorize your Payment Method in anticipation of membership or service-related charges through various methods, including authorizing it up to approximately one month of service as soon as you register. In some instances, your available balance or credit limit may be reduced to reflect the authorization even during any possible free trial period.
Payment Methods. To use the AEdge Services you must provide one or more Payment Methods. You authorize us to charge any Payment Method associated with your Account in case your primary Payment Method is declined or no longer available to us for payment of your subscription fee. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts. If a payment is not successfully settled, due to expiration, insufficient funds, or otherwise, and you do not cancel your Account, we may suspend your access to the Services until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method. For some Payment Methods, the issuer may charge you certain fees, such as foreign transaction fees or other fees relating to the processing of your Payment Method. Check with your Payment Method service provider for details.
Updating your Payment Methods. You can update your Payment Methods by going to the “Account” page. We may also update your Payment Methods using information provided by the payment service providers. Following any update, you authorize us to continue to charge the applicable Payment Methods.

2.4. User Cancellation or Modification of Membership Plan.

You can cancel or downgrade your AEdge membership plan at any time. To cancel or modify, go to the “Account” page on the AEdge Site and follow the instructions. If you cancel your membership, your Account will automatically close at the end of your current billing period. If you signed up for AEdge using your Account with a third party as a Payment Method and wish to cancel your AEdge membership, you may need to do so through that third party, for example by visiting your Account with the applicable third party and turning off auto-renew, or unsubscribing from the AEdge service through that third party. You may also find billing information about your AEdge membership by visiting your Account with the applicable third party.

No Refunds. Payments are nonrefundable and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. Following any cancellation, however, you will continue to have access to the Services through the end of your current billing period. At any time, and for any reason, we may provide a refund, discount, or other consideration (“Credits”) to some or all of our members in our discretion. AEdge retains discretion to determine the amount and form of such Credits. The provision of credits in one instance does not entitle you to credits in the future for similar instances, nor does it obligate us to provide Credits in the future, under any circumstance.
Downgrades. If you downgrade your Membership by moving from a higher priced Membership to a lesser priced Membership, you will continue to have access to the most current billed level of AEdge Services through the end of your billing period. Your new downgraded plan shall take effect at the start of your new billing period.
Upgrades. You may upgrade your Membership, by moving from a lesser priced Membership to a higher priced Membership, at any time. Immediately upon upgrade you will be granted access to the upgraded level of AEdge Services and your Payment Method will be billed either the full new upgraded amount or the difference between your prior, lower Membership, and the new upgraded level. Where applicable, charges for updating one or more Services may be prorated for any partial Billing month of service. The proration will be applied to your next billing cycle.

You will need to complete certain verification procedures before you are permitted to use the Services and your access to one or more Account(s) or the Services, and the limits that apply to your use of the Account(s) or the Services may be altered as a result of information collected on an ongoing basis. The information we request may include certain personal information, including, but not limited to, your name, address, telephone number, email address, date of birth, taxpayer identification number, government identification number and scans of government-issued identity documents. In addition to providing this information, to facilitate compliance with global industry standards for data retention, you agree to permit us to keep a record of such information for the lifetime of your Account(s) plus 6 years beyond the termination of your Account(s).

When we carry out these inquiries, you acknowledge and agree that your personal information may be disclosed to identity verification, compliance data recordation, credit reference, fraud prevention, or financial crime agencies and that these agencies may respond to our inquiries in full.
If there is any reasonable doubt that any information provided by you is wrong, untruthful, outdated or incomplete, AEdge shall have the right to send you a notice to request corrections, remove relevant information directly and, as the case may be, terminate all or part of the Services provided to you. You shall be solely and fully responsible for any loss or expenses incurred during the use of the Services if you cannot be reached through the contact information provided.
We reserve the right to request for, and you agree to provide, any and all such information and documents which are relevant or necessary in connection with the use of the AEdge Platform and/or the Services.

3.4. Enhanced Due Diligence.

We may require you to submit additional information about yourself or your business, provide records or documentation, or have face to face meetings with representatives of AEdge (such process, “Enhanced Due Diligence“). We reserve the right to charge you any costs and fees associated with such Enhanced Due Diligence.

3.5. Access.

To access your Account(s) or the Services, you must have the necessary equipment (such as a computer or smartphone) and the associated access to the Internet. Your Account(s) or the Services can be accessed directly using the Website. The use of the AEdge Site and other methods may be subject to such additional terms as may be prescribed by AEdge.

You are only permitted to access your Account(s) using your Account(s) login credentials and other required forms of authentication. We require multi-factor authentication to keep your Account(s) safe and secure. As a result, you may be required to use at least two forms of authentication when accessing your Account(s) and performing certain operations in your Account(s). Forms of multi-factor authentication in addition to your login credentials may include verification tokens delivered through a specified and supported 2FA application. If you choose to install and use a 2FA application on a device (e.g., phone or tablet) on which the operating system has been tampered with in any way, you do so at your own risk. This includes, but is not limited to, a “rooted” (Android) or “jailbroken” (iOS) device. We reserve the right in our sole discretion to prohibit access from or by any device on which the operating system has been or is suspected of having been modified or tampered with. You agree that we may provide your 2FA data to a third-party service provider in order to help us authenticate you.

3.6. Account Usage.

You must ensure that Account(s) registered under your name will not be used by any other person.
Corporate Account Users must ensure that Corporate Account(s) registered under your name will not be used by persons that have not completed identity verification, as described in Section 3.3.
You must notify us immediately of any breach of security, loss, theft or unauthorized use of your username, password or security information.
AEdge reserves the right to terminate, suspend or restrict your access to any Account if there is reasonable suspicion by us that the person logged into your Account is not the natural person authorized to use the Account or if we suspect that the Account(s) have been or will be used for any illegal, fraudulent, or unauthorized purposes.
At AEdge’s discretion, Corporate Account Users may access the Sub-Account feature on the AEdge Platform. Each natural person associated with a Sub-Account must undergo identity verification, as described in Section 3.3. Only one natural person may be associated with a particular Sub-Account.

3.7. Safeguarding your Account.

AEdge Details. You undertake to maintain at all times adequate security and control of all of your Account details, passwords, personal identification numbers (PINs), API keys, API secret keys, or any other codes that you use to access your Account(s) or the Services or to send any Instruction to us.

We may from time to time in our sole and absolute discretion: (a) refuse to complete or block, cancel or reverse any Transaction you have authorized or instructed, (b) terminate, suspend or restrict your access to any or all of the Services, (c) terminate, suspend or restrict your access to any or all of your Account(s), and/or (d) refuse to transmit information or Instructions to third parties (including but not limited to Linked Wallet operators), in each case with immediate effect for any reason or no reason whatsoever. Circumstances in which such suspension, termination or cancellation may arise include, without limitation, those where:

5. TRANSACTIONS AND INSTRUCTIONS.

5.1. User Instructions.

User Discretion. You are solely responsible for accurately entering any Instruction, including but not limited to all the necessary information in order to enable AEdge to carry out any Instruction. All Instructions, whether to follow your Custom Strategy or an AEdge Signal, are made at your discretion.
Manual Trading. Users retain full discretion and ability to engage in Manual Transactions, such as through instructions given by the user directly to a Digital Asset Exchange through the Linked Wallet rather than through the AEdge Bot. However, when users engage in Manual Transactions in the same Linked Wallet where they also have given a Bot Instructions by enabling AEdge Signals or a Custom Strategy, the Manual Transactions may be in conflict with the user’s Bot Instructions, cause excess transactions, or otherwise result in significant errors, malfunctions, and losses.
No Verification. AEdge is not obliged to verify the accuracy, completeness or authenticity of any such information or Instruction, or the identity, authority, or authenticity of any person giving any Instruction, or monitoring or processing Instructions, or refusing to process duplicate Instructions.
Irrevocable. Your Instructions shall be irrevocable and unconditional and shall be binding on you, and such Instructions may be acted or relied upon by us irrespective of any other circumstances. Once you give any Instruction, you have no right to rescind or withdraw such Instruction without our written consent. Your Instruction shall not be considered to be received by AEdge unless and until it has been received by AEdge’s server.
Binding. AEdge’s records of all Instructions shall be conclusive and binding on you for all purposes.

5.2. AEdge Discretion.

You acknowledge and agree that AEdge may, in its sole and absolute discretion for any reason or no reason whatsoever, refuse to act upon or defer acting on any Instruction, or seek further information with respect to the Instruction. Under no circumstances shall any of the Indemnified Persons be responsible or liable for any direct or indirect losses (including loss of profits, business or opportunities), damages or costs suffered by you or any other person or entity, arising from or in connection with any of the Indemnified Persons’ refusal or delay in acting upon any Instruction.

5.3. Notification of Instructions and Transactions.

AEdge may provide notification to you upon receipt of any Instruction from you. You are responsible to ensure that the details in any such notification transmitted to you are in accordance with your Instruction. Completion notification that an Instruction and/or a Transaction has been effected by AEdge may be provided to you via electronic communications or directly on the Website. Any such completion notification transmitted to you shall be deemed to have been received by you immediately after transmission. You are required to contact us if you do not receive any completion notification within the time usually required for a similar notification to be received. It is your sole responsibility to notify AEdge if you do not receive our notices or communications.

5.4. Authorization to Effectuate Transaction.

You hereby authorize AEdge to communicate your Instructions to the Digital Asset Exchange to effectuate your Transactions in your Linked Wallet and to provide settlement information to the Digital Asset Exchange or other third parties for the purposes of crediting or debiting your Linked Wallet in accordance with your Instruction. We reserve the right not to (but have no obligation not to) effectuate any Instructions if you have insufficient fiat monies or Digital Assets in your Linked Wallets to complete your Instructions (i.e. less than the required amount to settle the Transaction and to pay all the fees associated with the Transaction).

5.5. Market Makers.

You acknowledge, agree, and accept that one or more Market Makers (which may include affiliates or related corporations of AEdge acting in such capacity) may be appointed by AEdge to promote liquidity for AEdge Users, and any such Market Makers may enter into Transactions with you as your counterparty. Market Makers may also maintain positions in various Digital Assets as part of their market making activities, including positions in Digital Assets that are contrary to your positions.

5.6. Limits.

You may be subject to limits on the value of Transactions for which you provide AEdge Instructions out of your Linked Wallets (“Limits”) during a given period or in accordance with your chosen membership plan. Limits applicable to each membership plan are posted on the AEdge Site. Your Limits may vary in AEdge ‘s sole and absolute discretion. We reserve the right to change any applicable Limits from time to time in our sole and absolute discretion. If you wish to increase any of the current Limits applicable to you, you may upgrade your membership plan or submit a request to our user support. In respect of any such request, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, increase your Limit, lower your Limit, or maintain your current Limit, in each case subject to any further conditions that we may impose on you. In respect of any request to increase all or any of the current Limits applicable to you, we may require Enhanced Due Diligence measures to be conducted. We reserve the right to charge you any costs and fees associated with such Enhanced Due Diligence.

5.7. Unauthorized Transactions.

You are solely responsible for the control and use of your Account(s) and Bots and any Instruction sent from your Account(s) is deemed to be authorized and is binding on you. We are not obliged to verify the identity or authority of any person(s) using your Account(s) and we shall be at liberty to accept and place full reliance on any Instruction sent from your Account(s). If you notice any unauthorized or suspicious activity in your Account(s), you must notify us immediately.

5.8. Retention of Transaction Information.

To facilitate compliance with global industry standards for data retention, you agree to permit us (but agree to not require us) to keep a record of all Instructions and Transaction information for the lifetime of your Account(s) plus 6 years beyond the termination of your Account(s).

5.9. Right to Audit.

Without notice and at any time, and for any reason during the term of this Agreement AEdge may in our sole and absolute discretion perform an audit of your Account(s) and Transaction history, procedures and records including accessing your trading and/or Transaction history, your exchange and/or your Linked Wallet(s) via your Linked Wallet APIs to ensure compliance with this Agreement.

6. RISKS.

You acknowledge and agree that you use AEdge and its Services, issue Instructions, and engage in Transactions in Digital Assets at your own risk. These risks include, but are not limited to, those described in this User Agreement. The occurrence of any of these or other risks could result in the permanent and total loss of your Digital Assets and fiat currency and/or lost profit opportunities.

6.1. Performance of Digital Assets.

As with any asset, the price and relative value of Digital Assets can increase or decrease. Prices and trading volumes for Digital Assets have been subject to large fluctuations in the past and may be in the future.
Fluctuations may result from the risks described in this User Agreement, from general economic or social conditions, disasters, market participation, fluctuations in fiat currencies, and from numerous other factors.
Fluctuations may cause substantial losses and/or lack of liquidity. The market for any particular Digital Asset may completely disappear.
You should carefully consider whether owning or trading Digital Assets is suitable for you, taking into account your financial condition, knowledge about Digital Assets, risk tolerance, financial objectives, and other factors.

6.2. Transaction Risk.

Transactions in Digital Assets may be irreversible, and losses due to accident, errors, or fraud may not be recoverable.
Some transactions in Digital Assets shall be deemed to be made when recorded on a public ledger, which is not necessarily the date or time that you or any other User initiates the Transactions through AEdge or completes them on the Digital Asset Exchange.
Digital Asset blockchains, Digital Asset Exchanges, and AEdge infrastructure may become congested or non-operational because of attacks, bugs, hard forks, technical difficulties, disasters or other reasons. It may not be possible to execute Transactions during such periods, resulting in losses.
All Transactions are automatically executed based on your Instructions. You are solely responsible for determining whether particular Services, Instructions, or Transactions are suitable for you.

6.3. Security Risk.

Hackers or others may attempt to interfere with, attack, or take over AEdge , your Bot(s), your hardware, your Linked Wallet, Digital Asset Exchanges, Digital Assets, or your Account through malware attacks, DoS attacks, Sybil attacks, spoofing, phishing, and many other types of malicious activity. While we utilize protections intended to protect AEdge, no system is immune to this type of malicious activity, and AEdge has no control over protections for Linked Wallets, Digital Asset Exchanges, Digital Assets, or other third parties. Digital Assets are not legal tender or backed by any government, and your Account is not FDIC insured or protected by insurance.

6.4. Regulatory Risk.

Digital Assets, Transactions in Digital Assets, and the business of AEdge and other activities related to Digital Assets are subject to many different and changing types of regulations around the world. These regulations can have a material impact on our ability to provide AEdge Services, the value of our Services, your ability to achieve your objectives, and every other aspect of working with Digital Assets. These regulations also can have a material impact on the value of Digital Assets. AEdge makes no representations about the regulatory status of any particular Digital Asset.

6.5. Risks Related to Blockchain Forks.

It is possible that planned, unplanned, sudden, scheduled, expected, unexpected, publicized, not well-known, consensual, and/or controversial changes to the underlying operating rules of certain Digital Assets may occur from time to time in such a way as to result in the creation of one or more related versions of an existing Digital Asset (each instance of any such change, a “Fork“). Such Forks may result in multiple versions of a Digital Asset and could lead to the dominance of one or more such versions of a Digital Asset (each a “Dominant Digital Asset“) and the partial or total abandonment or loss of value of any other versions of such Digital Asset (each a “Non-Dominant Digital Asset“). We are under no obligation to support a Fork of a Digital Asset that you hold in your Linked Wallet on your exchange, whether or not any resulting version of such Forked Digital Asset is a Dominant Digital Asset or a Non-Dominant Digital Asset. If we elect, at our sole and absolute discretion, to support a Fork of a Digital Asset, we will make a public announcement through the Website.

6.6. Availability of Services.

AEdge does not guarantee availability of its Services, and cannot assure the availability of any Digital Asset Exchange, Linked Wallet or other third party service. Operations may be temporarily or permanently prevented by regular planned maintenance and extraordinary or other circumstances.

6.7. Delisting Risk.

Your preferred Digital Asset Exchange may remove one or more Digital Assets from its platform. Likewise, AEdge may remove one or more Digital Assets from a membership plan or the Services, such that Users will be unable to utilize the Services with respect to those Digital Assets. Delisting may occur for any reason or no reason, or may be required due to law or regulation. In the event of such delisting, you authorize AEdge’s cancelation of your outstanding Instructions for delisted Digital Assets and removal of Bots executing Instructions for Transactions for such delisted Digital Assets, though AEdge shall not be required by this User Agreement to take either action. AEdge will endeavor to provide reasonable notice of delisting by AEdge.

6.8. No Warranties.

AEdge SERVICES ARE PROVIDED ‘AS IS’ AND ‘AS AVAILABLE’ WITH NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF TITLE, IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR WARRANTIES OF NON-INFRINGEMENT.

AEdge does not guarantee that the use of its Services will generate any returns, profits or value.
We do not make any representations or warranties that access to the AEdge Site, any of your Account(s) or the Services, or any of the materials contained therein, will be continuous, uninterrupted, timely or error-free.
We will make reasonable efforts to ensure that Instructions provided to AEdge are processed in a timely manner, but we make no representations or warranties regarding the amount of time needed to complete Transaction processing which is dependent upon many factors outside of our control.
We enable you to select Custom Strategies, but we make no representations or warranties regarding the compatibility of such Custom Strategies with our Services.

7. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

You and AEdge agree that the following provisions shall apply to any dispute or claim that may arise out of or relate to this User Agreement or Services, including, without limitation, federal and state claims, and those based in contract, tort, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory.

7.1. Complaints.

In the event of a complaint, please set out the cause of your complaint, how you would like us to resolve the complaint, and any other information you believe to be relevant, in the manner described on our user support webpage. AEdge will then open a support ticket and a user complaints officer (“Complaint Officer“) will consider your complaint. The Complaint Officer will consider your complaint based on the information you have provided and any information that we have based on our records. Within thirty (30) Business Days of our receipt of your complaint, the Complaint Officer will endeavor to reasonably address points raised in your complaint. The Complaint Officer may: (i) offer to resolve your complaint in the way you have requested; (ii) reject your complaint; or (iii) offer to resolve your complaint with an alternative proposal or solution. In exceptional circumstances, if the Complaint Officer is unable to respond to your complaint within thirty (30) Business Days, the Complaint Officer will endeavor to send you a holding response specifying the date by which the Complaint Officer expects to be able to respond to your complaint. AEdge reserves the right not to respond to complaints that it reasonably concludes are harassing, inappropriate, fraudulent, or otherwise not brought for a legitimate purpose. Any offer of resolution made by AEdge will only become binding upon your acceptance. No offer of resolution shall constitute an admission of wrongdoing or liability by us.

7.3. Arbitration.

If we cannot resolve the dispute informally, you and AEdge agree that any dispute or claim shall be resolved through binding arbitration. Arbitration shall be conducted in New York City, New York (USA), before a single arbitrator, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association’s rules for arbitration of commercial disputes. This arbitration provision includes, without limitation, disputes arising out of or related to the interpretation or application of this arbitration clause. The arbitration will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and Forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by writing to the Notice Address. The arbitrator is bound by the terms of this Agreement. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, including issues relating to the scope and enforceability of this arbitration agreement. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding on all parties, except (1) for judicial review expressly permitted by law or (2) if the arbitrator’s award includes an award of injunctive relief against a party, in which case that party shall have the right to seek judicial review of the injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction that shall not be bound by the arbitrator’s application or conclusions of law.

7.4. Governing Law and Jurisdiction.

This User Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed for all purposes by the laws and public policy of the State of Alabama. Judgement upon any arbitration award may be entered, and any action not subject to arbitration under applicable law shall be brought, in any state or Federal Court in Jefferson County, Alabama having jurisdiction thereover.

7.5. Class Action Waiver.

ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN A PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT COLLECTIVELY WITH ANY OTHER PLAINTIFF OR PUTATIVE CLASS. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY CLASS ARBITRATION.

7.6. Jury Trial Waiver.

YOU AND AEdge EACH HEREBY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.
