15. Dispute Resolution, Arbitration Agreement and Class Action Waiver
Please Read This Following Clause Carefully
It May Significantly Affect Your Legal Rights, Including Your Right to File a Lawsuit in Court
(1) Initial Dispute Resolution
We are available by email at the address provided in the “How to Contact Us” Section to address any concerns a user may have regarding the Site. Most concerns may be quickly resolved in this manner. For any dispute you have with Company, you agree to first contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally and directly through consultation and good faith negotiations, which shall be a precondition to either party initiating a lawsuit or arbitration.
(2) Agreement to Binding Arbitration.
If we do not reach an agreed upon solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is pursued pursuant to section “Initial Dispute Resolution” above, then either party may initiate binding arbitration.
All claims arising out of or relating to these Terms and/or your use of the Site shall be finally settled by binding arbitration administered on a confidential basis by the American Arbitration Association in accordance with the provisions of the Consumer Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”), excluding any rules or procedures governing or permitting class actions. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of these Terms, including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable. The arbitrator shall be empowered to grant whatever relief would be available in a court under law or in equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. The interpretation and enforcement of these Terms shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.
THE AAA’S RULES GOVERNING THE ARBITRATION MAY BE ACCESSED AT WWW.ADR.ORG OR BY CALLING THE AAA AT 1.800.778.7879.
TO THE EXTENT THE FILING FEE FOR THE ARBITRATION EXCEED THE COST OF FILING A LAWSUIT, WE WILL PAY THE ADDITIONAL COST. IF WE ARE REQUIRED TO PAY THE ADDITIONAL COST OF THE FILING FEES, YOU SHOULD SUBMIT A REQUEST FOR PAYMENT OF FEES TO AAA ALONG WITH YOUR FORM FOR INITIATING THE ARBITRATION, AND WE WILL MAKE ARRANGEMENTS TO PAY THE NECESSARY FEES DIRECTLY TO AAA. THE ARBITRATION RULES ALSO PERMIT YOU TO RECOVER ATTORNEY’S FEES IN CERTAIN CIRCUMSTANCES.
THE PARTIES UNDERSTAND THAT, ABSENT THIS MANDATORY PROVISION, THEY WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. THEY FURTHER UNDERSTAND THAT, IN SOME INSTANCES, THE COSTS OF ARBITRATION COULD EXCEED THE COSTS OF LITIGATION AND THE RIGHT TO DISCOVERY MAY BE MORE LIMITED IN ARBITRATION THAN IN COURT.
(3) Class Action and Class Arbitration Waiver.
You and the Company each further agree that any arbitration shall be conducted in your respective individual capacities only and not as a class action or other representative action, and you and the Company each expressly waive your respective right to file a class action or seek relief on a class basis. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
(4) Exception – Small Claims Court Claims.
Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek relief in a small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction.
(5) Exception – Public Injunctive Relief.
Notwithstanding the parties’ agreement to resolve all disputes through arbitration, either party may seek public injunctive relief in a court of law. “Public injunctive relief” means relief that by and large benefits the general public, and that benefits the claimant, if at all, only incidentally or as a member of the general public.
(6) Exclusive Venue for Litigation
To the extent that the arbitration provisions set forth above do not apply, the parties agree that any litigation between them shall be filed exclusively in state or federal courts located in Clark County, Nevada (except for small claims court actions which may be brought in the county where you reside). The parties expressly consent to exclusive jurisdiction in the State of Nevada for any litigation other than small claims court actions.
16. Entire Agreement
This Terms constitutes the entire agreement between you and Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous written and oral representations proposals negotiations and communications.
17. Assignment
Company may assign these Terms or any of the rights or obligations hereunder and any causes of action arising hereunder to any third-party without necessity or obligation of notice to users.
18. Waivers
The waiver or failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right or provision of these Terms will not be deemed a waiver of the applicable right or provision.
19. Severability
These Terms will operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms is unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.
20. Force Majeure
Company will not be responsible for any failure to perform its obligations under this Terms due to circumstances beyond its reasonable control including without limitation acts of God, war, riot, terrorism, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, fire, flood, internet failure, or accidents.
