Mutual Agreement to Arbitrate
TO UNDERSTAND YOUR RIGHTS, PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE CAREFULLY. UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, YOU AND WE AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY CLAIMS, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, UNLESS YOU OPT-OUT. YOU AND WE AGREE THAT ALL SUCH CLAIMS SHALL BE ARBITRATED SUCH THAT YOU ARE AN INDIVIDUAL CLAIMANT (I.E. NOT AS A PROPOSED CLASS ACTION). REGARDLESS WHETHER OR NOT YOU OPT-OUT, YOU GIVE UP A RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. YOU AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT DURING ARBITRATION, DISCOVERY AND APPEAL RIGHTS ARE MORE LIMITED.
THE ARBITRATOR ALONE, AND NOT ANY FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, OR OTHER COURT OR AGENCY, SHALL HAVE THE EXCLUSIVE AUTHORITY TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE RELATING TO THE INTERPRETATION, APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY, OR FORMATION OF THESE TERMS AND THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY CLAIM THAT ALL OR ANY PART OF THESE TERMS OR THIS AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE IS VOID OR VOIDABLE.
You and we agree that, except as expressly set forth below, the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims that cannot be resolved informally, and that relate in any way to, or arise out of, your use of the Services and these Terms, or to any products or services sold or distributed by us or through the Services, shall be final and binding arbitration. The exception(s) to binding arbitration shall apply to the extent that either party has, in any manner, infringed upon or violated, or threatened to infringe upon or violate, the rights of either party or any third party’s patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or publicity rights or is seeking to vindicate public rights, in which case both sides acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by either party and/or the applicable third party(ies) on an individual basis in a court located in New York, NY. You and we acknowledge that this Agreement to Arbitrate affects interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under this Agreement to Arbitrate (despite any other choice of law provision).

Claims by Users in the United States

See the AAA's rules at adr.org/consumer, or call 1-800-778-7879. AAA's rules shall determine the payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees.
Claims by Users outside the United States
For users outside of the United States, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, or the breach thereof, shall be determined by arbitration administered by the International Centre for Dispute Resolution in accordance with its International Expedited Procedures (“ICDR Expedited Procedures”). The arbitration shall be decided by a sole arbitrator appointed in accordance with the ICDR Expedited Procedures. The ICDR’s rules are available at https://www.icdr.org.

The platform serves as a contact point for out-of-court settlement of disputes concerning contractual obligations arising from online sales contracts. Further information is available at the following link: http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board.
Means and Fees
In the interest of efficiency and fairness, you and we agree that the arbitration proceeding shall be based solely on written submissions, unless the arbitrator deems an oral hearing strictly necessary. Should the arbitrator deem an oral hearing to be necessary, such hearing shall be conducted via telephone or other electronic or technical means, or if that’s not possible, in person in the jurisdiction where you reside or at another mutually agreed upon location. The language of the arbitration shall be English or, for users who reside outside of the U.S., the official language of your jurisdiction. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding, and judgment may be entered upon it by any court having jurisdiction thereof. Each party shall have the right to use legal counsel in connection with arbitration at its own expense. If you initiate arbitration, we will reimburse you for filing, administration and arbitrator fees for claims totaling less than USD $10,000, unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. We shall not be held financially liable for, nor reimburse you for, costs incurred by you for legal counsel, travel or other out-of-pocket costs or expenses. Unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, we are unlikely to seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration.
