    Flint Tech Inc. — Terms of Service

    Effective Date: March 9, 2026

    Last Updated: March 9, 2026

    IMPORTANT — READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USING FLINT

    THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS A BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN SECTION 16. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS. PLEASE READ IT IN FULL.

    FLINT IS NOT A REGISTERED BROKER-DEALER, INVESTMENT ADVISER, OR CUSTODIAN. FLINT DOES NOT PROVIDE INVESTMENT ADVICE. ALL INVESTMENT DECISIONS ARE YOURS ALONE. INVESTING INVOLVES RISK, INCLUDING THE POSSIBLE LOSS OF ALL INVESTED CAPITAL.

    1. Agreement to These Terms

    These Terms of Service ("Agreement" or "Terms") are a legally binding contract between you ("you," "your," or "User") and Flint Tech Inc. ("Flint," "we," "us," or "our"), a Delaware corporation. They govern your access to and use of the Flint platform, including our website at flint-investing.com, our mobile and desktop applications, and all related services (collectively, the "Service").

    By creating an account, clicking "I Agree," or using the Service in any way, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy (available at flint-investing.com/privacy), and any additional terms incorporated by reference herein.

    If you do not agree to these Terms, do not create an account or use the Service.

    Modifications

    We may update these Terms at any time. We will notify you by email and in-app notification at least thirty (30) days before any material changes take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using the Service and close your account before the effective date.

    2. Eligibility

    To use the Service, you must:

    1. Be at least eighteen (18) years of age or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction, whichever is greater;
    2. Be a legal resident of the United States of America;
    3. Have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract under applicable law;
    4. Not be prohibited from receiving the Service under the laws of the United States or any other applicable jurisdiction;
    5. Not be located in, or a national or resident of, any country or territory subject to comprehensive U.S. economic sanctions, including Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, or the Crimea, Donetsk, or Luhansk regions of Ukraine;
    6. Not appear on the U.S. Treasury Department's Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons List or any other applicable U.S. government sanctions or restricted-party list;
    7. Have at least one active brokerage account, cryptocurrency exchange account, or digital wallet that you are authorized to connect to the Service.

    By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet all of the above requirements at all times. We reserve the right to verify your eligibility and may suspend or terminate your access if we determine, in our sole discretion, that you do not qualify.

    3. What Flint Is — and What It Is Not

    3.1 What Flint Is

    Flint is a financial technology platform that provides: (a) aggregated portfolio views across multiple connected brokerage accounts, cryptocurrency exchange accounts, and digital wallets; (b) trade execution infrastructure that transmits your instructions to your connected accounts via third-party APIs; and (c) an AI-powered natural language interface for composing and submitting trade instructions. Flint is software — a middleware and execution infrastructure layer that acts on your explicit direction.

    3.2 Flint Is Not a Broker-Dealer

    Flint is not registered as a broker-dealer with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under Section 15(a)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. §78o(a)(1)) and is not a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") or the Securities Investor Protection Corporation ("SIPC"). Flint does not "effect transactions in securities for the account of others" within the meaning of Section 3(a)(4) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. §78c(a)(4)), does not make markets in securities, and does not participate in trade negotiation or settlement. All trade instructions are initiated solely by you and are transmitted to your registered broker-dealer(s) or exchange(s) for execution. Flint does not hold or clear any securities position.

    3.3 Flint Is Not an Investment Adviser

    Flint is not registered as an investment adviser with the SEC or any state securities regulator under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. §80b-3). Flint is not subject to Regulation Best Interest (17 CFR §240.15l-1), does not owe you a fiduciary duty, and does not provide investment advice, financial advice, tax advice, legal advice, recommendations, or opinions regarding the suitability or advisability of any security, digital asset, strategy, or transaction. Any data, analytics, portfolio metrics, performance calculations, or informational content provided through the Service is for informational and technological purposes only and does not constitute a recommendation or solicitation to buy, sell, or hold any financial instrument.

    3.4 Flint Is Not a Custodian

    Flint does not hold, custody, control, or have access to your funds, securities, cryptocurrencies, or other assets at any time. All assets remain in accounts held directly by you at your brokerage firm(s), exchange(s), financial institution(s), or self-custodial wallet(s). Flint's services are not protected by SIPC, FDIC, or any other government or private insurance program.

    3.5 Flint Is Not a Money Transmitter

    Flint does not transfer, transmit, or hold money or monetary value on your behalf. All fund movements occur solely between your own accounts at your brokerage firms, exchanges, and financial institutions. Flint does not take custody of any assets at any point.

    3.6 Subscription Fee Disclosure

    Flint charges a flat monthly subscription fee solely for access to its software and technology services. This fee is not a commission, advisory fee, or transaction-based charge. It does not vary based on the number, size, type, direction, or outcome of any trades or investment decisions you make.

    4. Account Registration and Security

    4.1 Registration

    To use the Service, you must create an account by providing accurate, current, and complete information as requested, including your legal name, email address, and any other information we may require. You agree to promptly update your account information to keep it accurate.

    4.2 Account Credentials

    You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You agree to: (a) create a strong, unique password; (b) enable multi-factor authentication when offered; (c) never share your credentials with any third party; and (d) notify us immediately at support@flint-investing.com if you suspect any unauthorized access to your account. Flint is not liable for any losses caused by unauthorized use of your account resulting from your failure to safeguard your credentials.

    4.3 Connected Accounts

    The Service allows you to connect third-party brokerage accounts, cryptocurrency exchange accounts, and digital wallet addresses ("Connected Accounts"). By connecting an account, you represent and warrant that: (a) you are the authorized owner or legal user of that account; (b) you have full authority to connect it to Flint and authorize Flint to transmit instructions on your behalf; (c) doing so does not violate the terms of service of the third-party provider; and (d) you will maintain the security of your Connected Account credentials at all times.

    You grant Flint and its third-party service providers the right to access your Connected Accounts solely to: (i) retrieve account data including holdings, balances, and transaction history; and (ii) transmit trade instructions that you initiate through the Service. This authorization does not grant Flint any discretionary control over your accounts. All instructions must be initiated and confirmed by you.

    You may revoke a Connected Account at any time through your Account Settings. Revocation may take up to 24 hours to fully propagate to third-party infrastructure.

    5. Trade Execution

    5.1 User-Initiated Transactions Only

    All trades executed through Flint are initiated solely by you. Flint transmits your instructions to your Connected Accounts via third-party API infrastructure. Flint exercises no discretion over your investment decisions, trade routing, order type, venue selection, or order parameters. You are solely responsible for every trade instruction you submit — including the security or asset, quantity, order type, and timing.

    5.2 No Guarantee of Execution

    Flint does not guarantee trade execution, execution price, execution timing, or order fulfillment. Market conditions, brokerage or exchange system limitations, API availability, network congestion, third-party outages, and other factors outside Flint's control may affect whether and how your orders are executed. Orders may be partially filled, rejected, delayed, or cancelled by your brokerage or exchange for any reason without notice to Flint.

    5.3 Execution Disclaimers

    Flint is not responsible for:

    1. Execution quality or best execution — your registered broker-dealer bears any applicable best-execution obligations;
    2. Delays, failures, or errors in order transmission or execution caused by third-party systems or infrastructure;
    3. Brokerage- or exchange-imposed restrictions, fees, commissions, minimum order sizes, or account limitations;
    4. Price movements between order submission and execution;
    5. Market data inaccuracies or delays;
    6. API or system outages at any third-party provider; or
    7. Any investment losses, regardless of cause.

    5.4 Official Confirmations

    Trade confirmations are issued solely by your registered broker-dealer or exchange. Flint's records of transmitted instructions do not constitute official confirmations. You are responsible for verifying all executed trades against your brokerage or exchange records. Any discrepancy must be reported to your broker-dealer or exchange directly and to Flint at support@flint-investing.com within 24 hours.

    5.5 Third-Party Infrastructure Disclaimer

    Flint relies on third-party broker-dealer API infrastructure, data providers, and technology services (collectively, "Service Providers") to deliver the Service. Flint does not control, endorse, or guarantee the performance, availability, accuracy, or reliability of any Service Provider. Flint shall have no liability for any act, omission, error, delay, interruption, insolvency, or failure of any Service Provider, regardless of cause. The identity of Flint's Service Providers constitutes proprietary business information. Flint does not disclose the names of its Service Providers within these Terms or publicly. Users who require disclosure of Service Provider identities for compliance or due diligence purposes may contact support@flint-investing.com to inquire about applicable confidentiality arrangements.

    6. AI-Powered Features

    6.1 Description

    Flint provides an artificial intelligence natural language processing interface ("AI Features") that interprets your text or voice instructions and converts them into trade orders for transmission to your Connected Accounts. AI Features use large language models and machine learning technologies to interpret your intent and generate proposed order parameters.

    6.2 AI Limitations and Inherent Risk

    Artificial intelligence is not perfect. AI Features may misunderstand, misinterpret, or incorrectly process your instructions. You acknowledge and agree that:

    1. AI Features may produce errors, inaccuracies, and misinterpretations, including: incorrect identification of a security or asset; incorrect quantities or order sizes; wrong order types (e.g., market vs. limit vs. stop); and misinterpretation of ambiguous, colloquial, abbreviated, or context-dependent language;
    2. AI technology, including large language models, may experience hallucinations — generating outputs that are plausible but factually incorrect. You must independently verify all AI-generated information before relying on it;
    3. AI Features do not understand financial markets, your financial situation, your investment objectives, or your risk tolerance. They process language patterns — not investment logic;
    4. AI interpretation of natural language is probabilistic. The same instruction may produce different outputs at different times;
    5. AI Features rely in part on third-party language model infrastructure outside Flint's control.

    6.3 Mandatory Confirmation Before Execution

    Before any AI-interpreted trade instruction is submitted for execution, Flint will display a confirmation screen showing the AI's interpretation of your instruction, including the specific security or asset, order type, quantity, and applicable parameters. You must affirmatively confirm this screen before the instruction is transmitted. By confirming, you accept full responsibility for the resulting transaction regardless of any AI error or misinterpretation. It is your sole obligation to verify that the AI's interpretation matches your actual intent.

    6.4 AI Output Is Not Investment Advice

    AI-generated outputs, summaries, responses, and suggestions do not constitute investment advice, recommendations, or suitability determinations under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, Regulation Best Interest, or any other applicable law. AI Features are an execution tool. They are not a financial adviser, analyst, portfolio manager, or strategist. No AI-generated output should be relied upon as the basis for an investment decision without your own independent analysis.

    6.5 AI Liability Limitation

    Flint shall have no liability for any losses, costs, or damages arising from AI errors or outputs, including misinterpretation of instructions, execution of trades inconsistent with your intent, AI-generated inaccuracies, hallucinations, or any reliance on AI-generated content. Use of AI Features is entirely at your own risk. You acknowledge that you have an independent obligation to review, verify, and confirm all AI-generated outputs before execution.

    7. Portfolio Data Aggregation

    7.1 Data Sources

    Flint aggregates portfolio data from your Connected Accounts using third-party data aggregation services, direct API connections, and public blockchain data. Data is pulled from sources connected by you and may be subject to the data availability and limitations of those sources.

    7.2 Data Accuracy Disclaimer

    Account data, balances, holdings, transaction history, performance calculations, and other information displayed through the Service is aggregated from third-party sources and may not reflect real-time information. Data may be delayed, incomplete, stale, or inaccurate due to factors outside Flint's control, including: connectivity issues; synchronization delays; temporary outages; source-imposed restrictions; errors in data transmission; and differences in how institutions categorize or report data.

    The information displayed through Flint does not constitute an official record of your accounts. You should independently verify all data directly with your brokerage firm, exchange, or wallet provider before making any transactional or investment decision. Flint is not liable for any loss arising from inaccurate, delayed, or incomplete aggregated data.

    7.3 No Fiduciary Reliance

    Portfolio analytics, performance metrics, allocation breakdowns, and calculations displayed through the Service are for informational purposes only. They may use methodologies that differ from those used by your financial institutions. They do not constitute investment advice or professional analysis. Consult a qualified financial adviser before making decisions based on any information displayed through the Service.

    8. Investment Risk Disclosures

    8.1 General Investment Risk

    Investing in securities, digital assets, and other financial instruments involves substantial risk, including the possible loss of all invested capital. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The value of investments can decrease as well as increase. You should not invest money you cannot afford to lose.

    8.2 Your Responsibility

    You are solely responsible for evaluating the merits, risks, and suitability of each investment decision. Flint does not assess the suitability of any trade, strategy, or investment for your particular financial situation, objectives, or risk tolerance. You should consider consulting a qualified financial adviser, tax professional, or attorney before making investment decisions.

    9. Cryptocurrency and Digital Asset Disclosures

    9.1 Risk Acknowledgment

    If you connect cryptocurrency exchange accounts or digital wallet addresses, you acknowledge and accept the following:

    No Government Insurance. Cryptocurrency and digital assets are NOT insured by the FDIC, SIPC, or any other government or private insurance scheme. There is no safety net for losses of digital assets.

    Extreme Volatility. Digital asset values can fluctuate dramatically, often by large percentages within a single day or hour. Cryptocurrency is a highly speculative asset class. You may experience total loss of your investment.

    Regulatory Uncertainty. The regulatory environment for digital assets is rapidly evolving. Changes in law, regulation, or enforcement may adversely affect the use, legality, transferability, or value of any digital asset. Certain digital assets may be classified as securities, which could materially restrict their trading or value.

    Protocol Risks. Flint does not own or control the underlying blockchain protocols governing any digital asset. These protocols may be subject to sudden rule changes, hard forks, consensus mechanism changes, or software vulnerabilities. Flint disclaims all liability relating to underlying protocols.

    Irreversibility. Blockchain transactions are generally irreversible once confirmed. Errors in wallet addresses, transaction amounts, or network selection may result in permanent, unrecoverable loss of assets.

    9.2 Centralized Exchange Connections

    When you connect centralized exchange accounts, your digital assets are held by that exchange, subject to the exchange's own terms, operational risks, and regulatory exposure. These risks include, but are not limited to, exchange insolvency, security breaches, frozen withdrawals, and regulatory enforcement actions. Flint is not responsible for the actions, omissions, solvency, or security practices of any connected exchange.

    9.3 Self-Custodial Wallet Connections

    When you connect self-custodial wallets, you alone are responsible for the security of your private keys and seed phrases. Loss of your private keys or seed phrase will result in permanent, irrecoverable loss of your digital assets. Flint has no access to your private keys and cannot recover lost assets under any circumstances. You acknowledge all risks associated with interacting with smart contracts, decentralized protocols, and unaudited or unverified code. Flint disclaims all liability for losses resulting from smart contract vulnerabilities, exploits, or interactions with decentralized applications.

    9.4 Tax Obligations

    Cryptocurrency transactions may have significant tax consequences. You are solely responsible for determining and fulfilling all tax reporting and payment obligations related to digital asset activity. Flint does not provide tax advice and does not report your transactions to tax authorities on your behalf, except as required by law. Consult a qualified tax professional for guidance.

    10. Subscription Plans, Billing, and Payments

    10.1 Subscription Tiers

    Flint currently offers the following paid subscription plans:

    • Basic Plan — $19.99 per month, including expanded features as described on our Pricing Page.
    • Pro Plan — $39.99 per month, including full platform features as described on our Pricing Page.

    Current plan features and pricing are available at flint-investing.com/pricing. Feature availability may change over time with notice.

    10.2 Legacy Free Plan (Closed to New Sign-Ups)

    The Free Plan is no longer offered to new accounts created on or after April 16, 2026. Existing users who were on the Free Plan before that date retain access to its features as previously described, subject to the same feature limitations. Flint reserves the right to modify or discontinue legacy Free Plan features at any time with thirty (30) days' notice. The legacy Free Plan does not include trade execution capabilities unless otherwise specified.

    10.3 Automatic Renewal — Read Carefully

    YOUR PAID SUBSCRIPTION AUTOMATICALLY RENEWS AT THE END OF EACH MONTHLY BILLING PERIOD AT THE THEN-CURRENT RATE — BASIC: $19.99/MONTH; PRO: $39.99/MONTH — PLUS APPLICABLE TAXES, UNTIL YOU CANCEL.

    By subscribing, you authorize Flint to charge your payment method on a recurring monthly basis. Subscription fees are billed in advance at the start of each billing cycle.

    If your payment method is declined, we may retry the charge or suspend your access to paid features until payment is resolved.

    10.4 Cancellation

    Cancel at any time through your Account Settings at flint-investing.com/settings or the Flint mobile app. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid billing period. You retain access to paid features through the end of that period. After cancellation, paid features are no longer available; users grandfathered onto the legacy Free Plan revert to that plan, while all other accounts are deactivated until a new paid plan is selected. No fees are charged after cancellation takes effect.

    10.5 Price Changes

    We will provide at least thirty (30) days' advance notice before any subscription price increase takes effect, delivered via email and in-app notification. If you do not agree to the new price, cancel your subscription before the effective date. Continued use of a Paid Plan after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.

    10.6 No Refunds

    Subscription fees are non-refundable. There are no refunds or credits for partial months, unused periods, or periods where you did not use the Service.

    10.7 Payment Processing

    All payments are processed by a PCI-DSS compliant third-party payment processor. Flint does not store your full payment card information. You are responsible for maintaining accurate and current payment information in your Account Settings.

    10.8 Taxes

    Subscription fees are exclusive of applicable taxes. You are responsible for all applicable sales, use, value-added, or similar taxes imposed by any government authority in connection with your subscription.

    10.9 Annual Reminder

    We will send you an annual notice confirming your active subscription, the current charge amount and billing frequency, and instructions on how to cancel.

    11. Third-Party Services

    11.1 Third-Party Dependence

    The Service depends on third-party broker-dealer connectivity services, data aggregation providers, cryptocurrency exchange APIs, blockchain infrastructure, AI model providers, payment processors, and cloud hosting providers (collectively, "Service Providers"). Flint does not own, operate, or control any Service Provider.

    11.2 No Liability for Service Providers

    Flint is not responsible for the availability, accuracy, security, performance, or conduct of any Service Provider. Service Providers may experience outages, errors, delays, data inaccuracies, security incidents, or discontinuation at any time without notice. Flint does not endorse, warrant, or guarantee any Service Provider, and your use of the Service is subject to any limitations those providers impose. Flint shall have no liability for any loss, damage, or cost arising from any act, omission, error, insolvency, or failure of any Service Provider, regardless of cause.

    11.3 Service Provider Confidentiality

    The identity of Flint's Service Providers constitutes confidential and proprietary business information. Flint does not disclose the names of its Service Providers in these Terms or elsewhere publicly. Users or institutional partners seeking disclosure for compliance or diligence purposes may contact support@flint-investing.com to inquire about applicable confidentiality arrangements.

    11.4 Service Interruptions

    The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, outages, third-party disruptions, or causes beyond Flint's control. Flint shall not be liable for losses arising from service interruptions, including missed trading opportunities or delayed executions.

    12. Privacy and Data Security

    12.1 Privacy Policy

    Our collection, use, and disclosure of your information is governed by our Privacy Policy at flint-investing.com/privacy, incorporated into these Terms by reference.

    12.2 Financial Data Authorization

    By using the Service, you consent to Flint and its Service Providers accessing, retrieving, transmitting, and processing your financial account data — including balances, holdings, transactions, and account identifiers — solely for the purpose of providing the Service.

    12.3 Security Program

    Flint maintains administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the security and confidentiality of your information, including encryption of data in transit and at rest, access controls, multi-factor authentication, and incident response procedures. No system is completely secure, and Flint cannot guarantee absolute security.

    12.4 Credential Handling

    Flint does not directly store your brokerage or exchange login credentials. Authentication is handled through industry-standard OAuth-based tokenization and secure API protocols via Flint's Service Providers.

    12.5 Aggregated and De-Identified Data

    Flint may create aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized datasets from Service usage data. Flint may use such data for analytics, research, and service improvement, provided it cannot reasonably be used to identify you individually.

    12.6 GLBA

    Flint collects and processes nonpublic personal financial information as defined under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act ("GLBA"). Our privacy practices comply with GLBA requirements. We do not sell your nonpublic personal information to third parties for their independent marketing purposes.

    15. Limitation of Liability

    15.1 Disclaimer of Warranties

    THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. FLINT EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELIABILITY, SECURITY, AND TIMELINESS.

    FLINT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT: (A) THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE; (B) DATA WILL BE ACCURATE OR CURRENT; (C) TRADE INSTRUCTIONS WILL EXECUTE CORRECTLY, TIMELY, OR AT ALL; (D) AI FEATURES WILL CORRECTLY INTERPRET YOUR INSTRUCTIONS; OR (E) ANY DEFECT WILL BE CORRECTED.

    15.2 Limitation of Liability

    TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FLINT'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE — REGARDLESS OF THEORY OF LIABILITY — SHALL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF: (A) THE TOTAL FEES YOU PAID TO FLINT DURING THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY; OR (B) ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS ($100.00).

    IN NO EVENT SHALL FLINT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO: LOST PROFITS OR REVENUE; INVESTMENT OR TRADING LOSSES; LOSS OF DATA OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES; LOSSES RESULTING FROM THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDER FAILURES; LOSSES ARISING FROM AI ERRORS, HALLUCINATIONS, OR MISINTERPRETATIONS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION — REGARDLESS OF THE THEORY OF LIABILITY AND EVEN IF FLINT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

    15.3 Jurisdictional Carve-Outs

    Some jurisdictions do not permit the exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of certain damages. In such jurisdictions, Flint's liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including liability for fraud or willful misconduct.

    16. Dispute Resolution: Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

    16.1 Governing Provision

    This Section governs all disputes between you and Flint arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, or any other agreement between you and Flint, regardless of when entered. No other agreement between you and Flint — including any supplementary terms, promotional rules, or referral terms — shall modify or override this Section unless that document expressly amends it by name and section number. This provision is intended to eliminate any conflict of the kind addressed in Coinbase, Inc. v. Suski, 602 U.S. 143 (2024).

    16.2 Informal Resolution First

    Before initiating any formal dispute proceeding, you agree to contact Flint at support@flint-investing.com and make a good-faith effort to resolve the dispute informally for at least sixty (60) days. Your notice must include your name, account email, a description of the dispute, and the relief you seek. Most disputes can be resolved without formal proceedings.

    16.3 Binding Individual Arbitration

    IF INFORMAL RESOLUTION FAILS, YOU AND FLINT AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE, CLAIM, OR CONTROVERSY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE — INCLUDING QUESTIONS ABOUT THEIR FORMATION, INTERPRETATION, BREACH, OR ENFORCEABILITY — SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY BY BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION

    administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time of filing. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§1-16, governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Section. Where the FAA applies, it preempts any contrary state law.

    The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator. If the claimed amount is $25,000 or less, the arbitration may proceed by document submission unless either party requests a hearing. Hearings, if any, shall take place in the county where you reside or, at your election, by telephone or videoconference.

    16.4 Delegation

    The arbitrator — not any court — has exclusive authority to resolve all disputes regarding the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, and formation of this arbitration agreement, including any claim that all or any part of it is void or voidable. The sole exception is disputes about the class action waiver in Section 16.5, which a court of competent jurisdiction shall resolve.

    16.5 Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver

    YOU AND FLINT EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, CONSOLIDATED ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ARBITRATION. YOU AND FLINT EACH WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.

    If this class action waiver is found unenforceable with respect to any claim, that claim shall be severed and proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction; the remainder of this arbitration agreement shall continue in full force.

    16.6 Exceptions

    This arbitration agreement does not apply to: (a) claims brought in small claims court on an individual basis where the claim remains within that court's jurisdiction; or (b) claims for emergency injunctive or equitable relief to protect intellectual property rights.

    16.7 Fees

    For claims up to $10,000, Flint will pay all AAA filing, administration, and arbitrator fees. For claims exceeding $10,000, fees are allocated as provided under AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules. Each party bears its own attorneys' fees unless the arbitrator determines applicable law requires otherwise.
