related to these Legal Terms (each a "Dispute" and collectively, the
"Disputes") brought by either you or us (individually, a "Party" and collectively, the "Parties"), the Parties agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute
(except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30)
days before initiating arbitration. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one
Party to the other Party.
Binding
Arbitration
If the
Parties are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, the Dispute (except those Disputes
expressly excluded below) will be finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. YOU UNDERSTAND
THAT WITHOUT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial
Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures
for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the American Arbitration Association
(AAA) website. 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 applicable law, and any
award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable
AAA rules or applicable law, the
arbitration will take place in
St. Marys County,
Maryland
. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Parties may
litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify,
vacate, or enter judgment
on the award entered by the arbitrator.
If for any reason, a Dispute proceeds in court rather than arbitration, the Dispute
shall be commenced or prosecuted in the
state and federal
courts
located
in
St. Marys County,
Maryland
, and 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 such state and federal courts
. 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 Legal Terms.
In no event shall any Dispute brought by either Party related in any way
to the Services be commenced more than one (1) years after the cause of action
arose. If this provision is found to be illegal or
unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this
provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent
jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties agree to submit to the
personal jurisdiction of that court.
Restrictions
The Parties agree
that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between the Parties individually. To the full extent
permitted by law, (a) no arbitration shall be joined with any other proceeding; (b) there is no right or
authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to
utilize class action procedures; and (c) there is no right or
authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public
or any other persons.
Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration
The Parties agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above
provisions concerning informal negotiations binding arbitration: (a) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect,
or concerning the validity of, any of the intellectual property rights of a Party; (b) any Dispute related to,
or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy, or
unauthorized use; and (c) any claim for injunctive relief. If this
provision is found to be illegal or unenforceable, then neither Party will elect to arbitrate any Dispute
falling within that portion of this provision found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be
decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and the Parties
agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
