DISPUTE RESOLUTION/ARBITRATION

It is the Company's goal that the Site meets your expectations. However, there may be instances when you have a problem or dispute that needs special attention. In those instances, the Company is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution that satisfies you; however, we can only do this if we know about and understand your issue. Therefore, for any problem or dispute that you may have with the Company, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give the Company an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes you first sending a written description of your problem or dispute by filling out a form on our "Contact Us" page.

You then agree to negotiate with the Company in good faith about your problem or dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after the Company's receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.

You agree that 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 the Site or these Terms shall be final and binding arbitration, except to the extent that you have in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate the Company's or any third party patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or publicity rights, in which case you acknowledge that arbitration is not an adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by the Company and/or the applicable third party(ies). You and we acknowledge that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under these Terms (despite any other choice of law provision).

Arbitration under these Terms shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the "AAA"). For claims of less than $75,000 USD, the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for claims over $75,000 USD, the AAA's Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879 (within the USA). The payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules or the AAA's Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes, as applicable. You and we agree to pay our own other fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available in a court, including injunctive or declaratory relief and attorneys' fees. In addition, for claims under $75,000 USD as to which you provided notice and negotiated in good faith with the Company as required above before initiating arbitration, if the arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a recovery of reasonable attorneys' fees and costs. As a limited exception to the agreement to arbitrate, you and we agree that you may take claims to small claims court, if your claims qualify for hearing by such court.

YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO OPT-OUT OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THIS MANDATORY ARBITRATION PROVISION WITH REGARD TO ANY PARTICULAR INTERACTION WITH THESE, THEN WITHIN THIRTY (30) DAYS FROM THE DATE OF SUCH INTERACTION, YOU MAY OPT-OUT OF THIS PART OF THESE TERMS BY FILLING OUT A FORM ON OUR "CONTACT US" PAGE. Any opt-out received after the thirty (30) day time period will not be valid and you must pursue your claim via arbitration pursuant to these Terms.

WE BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND THE COMPANY BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US.

In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the Site or these Terms be instituted more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.
