DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Binding Arbitration and Class Action Waiver

We hope that we never have a dispute. However, if we do, in order to expedite any such dispute’s resolution and control the cost, we agree first to attempt to negotiate any dispute (except for “Excepted Disputes” expressly provided below) informally for at least sixty (60) days. If we cannot resolve our Dispute, except as provided below, we agree to binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), and not before a court, judge or jury. The arbitrator’s decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the FAA. Any such appeal must be made before the state or federal courts of Camden County, New Jersey. Class action lawsuits, class-wide arbitrations, private attorney general actions, and any other proceeding where someone acts on a representative capacity are not allowed. Nor is it allowed to combine the proceedings of two or more individuals without prior consent of all parties.

The term “Dispute” shall be broadly construed to mean any claim or controversy between you and us relating to, arising out of, directly or indirectly, in connection with, or concerning our Services, our Site, our Privacy Notice, and/or these Terms of Use under any theory of recovery including contract, tort, warranty, statute, regulation, or common or civil law.

Excepted Disputes. Disputes involving or concerning (a) the enforcement, validity, or protection of our intellectual property, (b) relating to or arising from allegations of theft, piracy, plagiarism, or unauthorized use of the Site against you; and/or (c) any claim for injunctive relief are not subject to the binding arbitration hereunder. Such Disputes, however, remain subject to the above class action waiver.

Small Claims Court. Subject to applicable jurisdictional requirements, either party may elect to pursue a Dispute in a local small-claims court rather than through arbitration so long as the matter remains in small claims court and proceeds only on an individual basis under the above class action waiver.

Notice of Dispute. If you have a Dispute with us, you may send us a Notice of Dispute to ARC Claims Management, Inc., ATTENTION: DISPUTE RESOLUTION, 535 Route 38, Suite 300, Cherry Hill, NJ 08002. Please provide us with your name, how to contact you, what your concern is, and how you would like your concern resolved. After 60 days, you or we may commence an arbitration is the Dispute is not resolved.

Arbitration Procedure. AAA shall conduct the arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") in effect upon first notice of a Dispute and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone, or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by either Party. The arbitrator must follow New Jersey law. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in New Jersey, U.S.A. The parties may litigate in a court of competent jurisdiction to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to enforce an arbitration award.

Limited Time to Commence a Dispute. In no event shall any Dispute brought hereunder by either party be commenced more than one (1) year after the cause of action arose.

Forum Selection Clause. If these provisions are found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of the provision found to be illegal or unenforceable, and such Dispute shall be decided solely and exclusively by the state or federal courts located in Camden County, New Jersey. Any appeal of an arbitration permitted under the FAA will be made solely and exclusively by the state or federal courts located in Camden County, New Jersey. The Parties hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction, and forum non conveniens with respect to venue and jurisdiction in Camden County, New Jersey state or federal courts. You agree that application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods and the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) are excluded from these Terms of Use.

MISCELLANEOUS

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not operate as a waiver of such right or provision. These Terms of Use operate to the fullest extent permissible by law. We may assign any or all of our rights and obligations to others at any time. We shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, delay, or failure to act caused by any cause beyond our reasonable control.

If any provision or part of a provision of these Terms of Use is determined to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision or part of the provision is deemed severable from these Terms of Use and does not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

There is no joint venture, partnership, employment or agency relationship created between you and us as a result of these Terms of Use or use of the Site. You agree that these Terms of Use will not be construed against us by virtue of having drafted them.
