18. DISPUTE
RESOLUTION
Informal Negotiations
To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy, or
claim related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and
collectively, the "Disputes") brought by either you or us
(individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any
Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least
thirty (30) days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon
written notice from one Party to the other Party.
Binding
Arbitration
If
the Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those
Disputes expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU
UNDERSTAND THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL.
The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary
Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the American Arbitration
Association (AAA) website. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator
compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA
Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the
submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need
not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow
applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise
required by the applicable AAA rules or
applicable law, the arbitration will take place in
Maricopa,
Arizona
. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may
litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify,
vacate, or enter judgment
on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the
Dispute shall be commenced or prosecuted in the
state and
federal courts
located in
Maricopa,
Arizona
, and
the Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens
with respect to venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal
courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on
Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act
(UCITA) are excluded from these Legal Terms.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any
way to the Services be commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of
action arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or
unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of
this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of
competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit
to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
Restrictions
The Parties
agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full
extent permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right
or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to
utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no
right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the
general public or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the
above provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce
or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any
Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or unauthorized use; and (c)
any claim for injunctive relief. If this provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither
Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal
or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts
listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
19. CORRECTIONS
