PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU AND THE COMPANY TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU AND THE COMPANY CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM EACH OTHER.

15. Disputes

"Disputes" are defined as any claim, controversy, or dispute between you and the Company, its processors, suppliers, or licensors (or their respective affiliates, agents, directors, or employees), whether arising before or during the effective period of this Agreement, and including any claim, controversy, or dispute based on any conduct of you or the Company that occurred before the effective date of this Agreement, including any claims relating in any way to this Agreement, or any other aspect of our relationship.

16. Binding Arbitration

You and the Company agree that any and all Disputes, except those that are resolved informally or brought in a small claims court, will be individually arbitrated by a neutral arbitrator who has the power to award the same individual damages and individual relief that a court can. ANY ARBITRATION WILL ONLY BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS, MASS ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST THE COMPANY. Nothing in this Agreement prevents you or the Company from settling Disputes on a class, representative, or consolidated basis.

  • (a)If you reside in the US, you and the Company agree that the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") will administer the arbitration under its Consumer Arbitration Rules in effect at the time arbitration is sought ("AAA Rules"). Those rules are available at www.adr.org/rules. Arbitration will proceed on an individual basis and will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules; provided that the parties shall be presented with a list of five potential arbitrators and shall rank those potential arbitrators in order of preference. AAA shall select the arbitrator with the highest combined preference (e.g., if both parties select a potential arbitrator as their top preference, that arbitrator will be selected). The AAA Rules will govern payment of all arbitration fees. The arbitrator shall be authorized to award any remedies, including injunctive relief, that would be available to you in an individual lawsuit and that are not waivable under applicable law.
    • 17. Entire Agreement

    This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between you and Company with respect to the Application and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous understandings and agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the Application.

    18. Waiver

    No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, on the part of either party, any right or any power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or power hereunder preclude further exercise of that or any other right hereunder. In the event of a conflict between this Agreement and any applicable document or other terms, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.
