The Company makes no representation that the information available is appropriate or available for use in other locations, and access to the site from territories where their contents are illegal is prohibited. Those who choose to access the site from other locations do so on their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. Users may not use or export the information in violation of U.S. export laws and regulations. Any claim relating to the information shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of California.

By visiting the Site(s) and or conducting business with us, you agree that, except as otherwise specified herein, the laws of the United States, including the Federal Arbitration Act, will govern any dispute that arises between us or between you and any of our affiliates or service providers resulting from or relating to your visit and use of the Site.

ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BETWEEN YOU AND US THAT ARISES BETWEEN US OR BETWEEN YOU AND ANY OF OUR AFFILIATES OR SERVICE PROVIDERS RESULTING FROM OR RELATING TO YOUR VISIT AND USE OF THE SITE WILL BE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION. YOU HEREBY AGREE TO GIVE UP YOUR RIGHT TO GO TO COURT to assert or defend your rights under these Terms, except for matters that may be taken to small claims courts. Your rights will be determined by a neutral arbitrator, NOT a judge or jury. You agree that any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms, including with respect to the interpretation of any provision of these Terms or other agreements between you and us, or concerning the performance or obligations of you and us, shall be resolved by mandatory and binding arbitration submitted to JAMS, formerly known as Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc. (“JAMS”) in accordance with its Consumer Arbitration Rules and/or its Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines. Either party may file an arbitration demand with the JAMS pursuant to the conditions stated herein, including but not limited to:

1. Any claim required to be submitted to arbitration shall be made by filing a demand for arbitration within one (1) year of the date of discovery of the facts first giving rise to the claim.
2. Place of Arbitration Hearings. Either party may elect to conduct the arbitration by telephone or written submission, but such arbitration shall be based in Santa Clara, California. If an in-person arbitration hearing is necessary or mutually agreeable, such in-person shall be conducted at a JAMS facility in your area or at a JAMS facility in Santa Clara.
3. The selection of the Arbitrator shall be made pursuant to JAMS’ then-current Consumer Arbitration Rules.
4. Similar demands for arbitration by more than one claimant represented by either the same law firm or law firms acting in coordination shall be subject to the then-current Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines.
5. Conduct of Arbitration. Unless JAMS’s then-current Consumer Arbitration Rules or JAMS’s Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines, as applicable, require otherwise, the arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator. Subject to the applicable JAMS procedure, the arbitrator shall allow reasonable discovery in the forms permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, to the extent consistent with the purpose of the arbitration. The arbitrator(s) shall have no power or authority to amend or disregard any provision of this section or any other provision of these Terms, except as necessary to comply with JAMS rules.
6. Findings and Conclusions. The arbitrator(s) shall, after reaching judgment and award, prepare and distribute to the parties written findings of fact and conclusions of law relevant to such judgment and award and containing an opinion setting forth the reasons for the giving or denial of any award. The award of the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgment thereon may be entered in a court of competent jurisdiction.
7. Costs and Fees. If you elect to commence an arbitration, you will be subject to a filing fee pursuant to JAMS’s then-current procedures. To the extent permitted by JAMS procedures, each party shall bear its own costs and expenses and an equal share of the arbitrators’ and administrative fees of arbitration. We will remain responsible for our share of costs, expenses and fees in addition to any costs, expenses and fees required of us under JAMS procedures, including under JAMS’s Mass Arbitration Procedures and Guidelines.
8. Litigation. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law shall apply to these Terms. Either party also may, without waiving any remedy under these Terms, seek from any court having jurisdiction any interim or provisional relief that is necessary to protect the rights or property of that party, pending the establishment of the arbitral tribunal (or pending the arbitral tribunal’s determination of the merits of the controversy).
9. Notwithstanding the arbitration clause herein, the parties also agree that we may bring suit in a federal or state court located in Santa Clara, California in cases of alleged infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights or if your acts or conduct have subjected us to the imminent or reasonable risk of litigation from a third party. This provision is void, inapplicable, and unenforceable within the State of New Jersey.

CLASS ACTION WAIVER

Any arbitration, claim or other proceedings by or between you and us resulting from or relating to your visit and use of the Site shall be conducted on an individual basis and not through any class action, mass action, or on a consolidated or representative basis. You further agree that the arbitrator shall have no authority to award class-wide relief or to combine or aggregate similar claims or unrelated transactions. You acknowledge and agree that this agreement specifically prohibits you from commencing arbitration proceedings as a representative of others. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, each party waives any right to a jury trial to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Any claim that all or part of this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, unconscionable, void, or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. This provision is void, inapplicable, and unenforceable within the State of New Jersey.
