RESOLUTION OF DISPUTES: BINDING ARBITRATION; NO CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS OR ARBITRATIONS
Arbitration is the referral of a dispute to one or more impartial persons for a final and binding determination. You and SquidSkirts waive any right to a jury trial, or the right to have any Dispute resolved in any court, and instead accept the use of binding arbitration; provided, however, that you have the right to litigate any Dispute in small claims court, if all the requirements of the small claims court, including any limitations on jurisdiction and the amount at issue in the Dispute, are satisfied. “Dispute” as used in these Terms of Use, means any controversy or claim arising out of or related to these Terms of Use, the subject matter of these Terms of Use, or your use of the Services.
You and SquidSkirts agree that any Dispute is personal to us, and that any such Dispute shall only be resolved by an individual arbitration and shall not be brought as a class arbitration, a class action, or any other representative proceeding. Neither you nor SquidSkirts agrees to class arbitration, or an arbitration where a person brings a dispute as a representative of any other person or persons. Neither you nor SquidSkirts agrees that a dispute can be brought as a class representative action whether inside or outside of arbitration, or on behalf of any other person or persons.
These Terms of Use affect interstate commerce and you and SquidSkirts agree that the terms of this “Resolution of Disputes” provision will be governed by, construed, and enforced, both procedurally and substantively, by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1-9, (“FAA”) to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. Moreover, this “Resolution of Disputes” provision shall survive any termination of these Terms of Use.
The arbitration of any Dispute will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). In the event that the AAA declines or is unable to administer the arbitration, you and SquidSkirts agree to use an arbitration forum or arbitrator that you and SquidSkirts mutually agree upon. If, after making a reasonable effort, you and SquidSkirts are not able to agree upon an arbitration forum or arbitrator, AAA or a court having proper jurisdiction will appoint an arbitration forum or arbitrator. The arbitration will be started and conducted in accordance with the AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms of Use. The AAA Rules, and other information about the AAA and arbitration, are readily available at http://www.adr.org , by calling 1-800-778-7879, or by mail at 120 Broadway, Floor 21, New York, NY 10271. You and SquidSkirts agree that the AAA Rules shall be subject to the provisions of these Terms of Use, changes in procedures that the AAA may make from time to time in its AAA Rules or successor rules, and the following modifications:
- As limited by the FAA and the provisions of these Terms of Use, the arbitrator will have the exclusive power and jurisdiction to (a) make all procedural and substantive decisions concerning the Dispute, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability; and (b) grant all rights and remedies that would have been available to you or SquidSkirts in a court of law, including the power to permit discovery as would have been available in a court of law; provided, however, that the arbitrator shall not have the power to conduct a class arbitration or representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms of Use as stated above;
- In making any award, the arbitrator will be subject to the provisions of these Terms of Use, including the “Limitations of Liability” provision above, and will not have jurisdiction to make an award to any party to the arbitration contrary to the Limitations of Liability provision; provided, however, that if the enforceability of any of these restrictions is limited by the applicable substantive law, that restriction will only be enforced to the extent permitted by such law or rules;
- To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, each party shall be responsible for the cost of preparing and presenting its case in arbitration. SquidSkirts will, however, pay the amount of any arbitration costs and fees charged by the arbitrator;
- In the case of face-to-face arbitration proceedings, the proceedings shall be conducted at a location that is reasonably convenient to you; and
- The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing.
CHOICE OF LAW
With the exception that the enforceability of the “Resolution of Disputes” provision above is governed both procedurally and substantively by the FAA, you agree that the laws of the state of California, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern these Terms of Use and any dispute of any sort that might arise between you and SquidSkirts.
INDEMNITY
You agree to indemnify and hold SquidSkirts, including its partners, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and each of their and our directors, officers, managers, agents, contractors, partners, and employees, harmless from any loss, liability, claim, damages, costs, expenses or demand (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with the Terms of Use, the Privacy Policy, or the Services. Your obligation to indemnify includes, but is not limited to, disputes, claims, or lawsuits arising out of or in connection with: (i) your acquisition or use of Member Points, Prizes, or other products or services made available through the Services; (ii) any termination or suspension of your right to use your Member Points or virtual Prizes; (iii) your access to or use of the Services; or (iv) any violation of these Terms of Use.
WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY
No waiver of these Terms of Use by SquidSkirts shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or any other term or condition, and any failure of SquidSkirts to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.
ENTIRE AGREEMENT
These Terms of Use, together with any other agreements incorporated by reference therein, constitute the entire agreement, and supersede all prior written agreements, arrangements, communications and understandings and all prior and contemporaneous oral agreements, arrangements, communications and understandings, whether electronic, oral, or written, between you and SquidSkirts with respect to the Services.
GENERAL TERMS
