14.2 Arbitration Agreement and Waiver of Court Proceedings.
You and the Company hereby mutually agree that any and all Disputes shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the Dubai International Arbitration Centre ("DIAC Rules"), rather than through court proceedings or litigation. By entering into this Agreement, you expressly, knowingly, and voluntarily waive your right to have any Dispute resolved through court proceedings, litigation, or trial before a judge or jury. The arbitration shall be conducted in the English language in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, before a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with the DIAC Rules. The arbitrator shall have the power to grant any remedy or relief that would be available in a court of competent jurisdiction, including but not limited to injunctive relief, specific performance, and monetary damages. The arbitrator's decision and award shall be final, binding, and conclusive upon the parties and may be entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction.

All Disputes must be brought and resolved on an individual basis only, and you agree that you shall not bring, join, participate in, or seek to recover through any class action, collective action, consolidated action, representative action, or any other proceeding in which you act or propose to act in a representative capacity on behalf of a class or group of persons. You further agree that the arbitrator shall have no authority or jurisdiction to conduct any form of class arbitration, to consolidate multiple parties' claims, or to preside over or adjudicate any form of representative or collective proceeding. This class action waiver is an essential, fundamental, and material term of this Agreement, and in the absence of this waiver, the Company would not enter into this Agreement or provide the Services.
14.4 Exceptions to Arbitration.
Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.2 above, the Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion, seek injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable remedies in any court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of preventing, enjoining, or restraining any actual or threatened breach of this Agreement, including but not limited to breaches relating to intellectual property rights, confidentiality obligations, or unauthorized use of the Platform. Additionally, either party may seek relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for the purpose of enforcing an arbitration award or compelling arbitration in accordance with this Section 14.
14.5 Jurisdiction and Venue.
To the extent that court proceedings are permitted or required under this Agreement, you hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Emirate of Dubai, United Arab Emirates, and irrevocably waive any objection to such jurisdiction or venue, including but not limited to any objection based on inconvenient forum. You further agree that service of process may be effected in any manner permitted by the laws of the United Arab Emirates or the applicable rules of civil procedure.
14.6 Costs and Attorneys' Fees.
In any arbitration or litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover from the non-prevailing party all reasonable costs, expenses, and attorneys' fees incurred in connection with such arbitration or litigation, including but not limited to pre-arbitration or pre-litigation costs, arbitration or court fees, expert witness fees, and post-judgment or post-award enforcement costs.
