Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate
By providing information to us, you and we agree that if there is any controversy, claim, action, or dispute arising out of or related to your use of our services or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of this Policy or any part of it (“Dispute”), both parties shall first try in good faith to settle such Dispute by providing written notice to the other party describing the facts and circumstances of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party 30 days in which to respond to or settle the Dispute. Both you and we agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent that must be satisfied before initiating any litigation or filing any claim against the other party. IF ANY DISPUTE CANNOT BE RESOLVED BY THE ABOVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE, YOU AGREE THAT THE SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION FOR SUCH DISPUTE WILL BE DECIDED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. The parties expressly agree that this arbitration provision and any arbitration under this agreement is governed and controlled by the Federal Arbitration Act. Other rights that you and we would otherwise have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including discovery and appeal rights. All such disputes shall be submitted to the American Arbitration Association (AAA) or JAMS, for binding arbitration under its rules then in effect, before one arbitrator to be mutually agreed upon by both parties. The rules for arbitration may be reviewed at jamsadr.com. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising under or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Policy, including any claim that all or any part of this Policy is void or voidable. Unless you and we agree to a different location, the arbitration will be conducted within 30 miles of your then current mailing address. No matter which party initiates the arbitration, we will advance or reimburse filing fees and other costs or fees of arbitration, provided each party will be initially responsible for its own attorney?s fees and related costs. Unless prohibited by state law, the arbitrator may award fees, costs, and reasonable attorney?s fees to the other party who substantially prevails in the arbitration. In the event of a conflict between this agreement to arbitrate and any other arbitration agreement between you and us, the terms of the Other Arbitration Agreement shall govern and prevail in such instance.
If you feel that we are not abiding by this Privacy Policy, you should contact us immediately via telephone at 615-956-7272 or via our online contact form on this website.
