- Applicable Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms and any Dispute (defined below) between you and Company will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California (without regard to its conflicts of law provisions), and both you and Company agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of California. This choice of jurisdiction and venue does not prevent either party from seeking injunctive relief with respect to a violation of intellectual property rights or confidentiality obligations in any appropriate jurisdiction. THE MAKING OF CLAIMS OR RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS SHALL BE IN YOUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN THE RESOLUTION OF ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF, OR RELATING TO, THESE TERMS.
YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS MAY OTHERWISE BE PROVIDED IN ADDITIONAL TERMS, THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE FORUM AND REMEDY FOR ANY AND ALL DISPUTES AND CLAIMS RELATING IN ANY WAY TO OR ARISING OUT OF THE TERMS AND/OR THE SERVICES (INCLUDING YOUR VISIT TO OR USE OF THE SERVICES) SHALL BE FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION, except that to the extent that either of us has in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate the other party’s patent, copyright, trademark or trade secret rights, or you have otherwise violated any of the user conduct rules set forth above then the parties acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought.
All actions or proceedings arising in connection with, touching upon or relating to any controversy, allegation, or claim arising out of or relating to the Services, these Terms, or the scope of the provisions of this section (collectively, “Dispute”), shall be submitted to and administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc. (“JAMS”) using JAMS’ Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures if the matter in dispute is $250,000 or less, JAMS’ Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures if the matter in dispute is over $250,000, or JAMS’ Policy on Consumer Arbitration Pursuant to Pre-Dispute Clauses Minimum Standards of Procedural Fairness if the matter in dispute is between Company and a consumer, to be held in Los Angeles, CA. or administered by any other arbitration administration service that you and an officer or legal representative of Company consent to in writing. You can obtain JAMS procedures, rules, and fee information by calling JAMS at 949.224.1810.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, NO ARBITRATION OR CLAIM UNDER THESE TERMS SHALL BE JOINED TO ANY OTHER ARBITRATION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM INVOLVING ANY OTHER CURRENT OR FORMER USER OF THE SERVICES, AND NO CLASS ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE PERMITTED. In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the Services (including your visit to or use of the Services) be instituted more than three (3) years after the cause of action arose.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either of us may bring qualifying claims of general dispute (excluding disputes where intellectual property rights are concerned) in small claims court, subject to the class action waiver above.
The provisions of this Section 16 shall supersede any inconsistent provisions of any prior agreement between the parties. This Section 16 shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding any termination of your use of the Services or these Terms.
