You must stop using the Company Website (as defined below) and the Services immediately if You do not agree to the dispute resolution provision.
2. Privacy Policy

4. Arbitration Agreement
4.1 THIS SECTION SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECTS HOW ANY DISPUTES THAT ARISE BETWEEN YOU AND THE COMPANY MUST BE RESOLVED. PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY.
4.2 Definition of Claims: “Claim(s)” means any dispute between the Parties and/or their parents, subsidiaries, affiliates companies, employees, agents, officers directors, shareholders, and licensors arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Agreement, the Company Website, the Services, or any communication from the Company or a Provider.
4.3 Arbitration: You and Company agree that all Claims must be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that You may assert Claims in small claims court as provided below. There is no judge or jury in arbitration. The arbitrator will resolve any and all Claims, including any disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Contract, including any claim that all or any part of this Contract to arbitrate is void or voidable. The arbitrator’s award will be final and binding, and a judgment on the arbitrator’s award may be entered by a court. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted through JAMS (www.jamsadr.com) under its Streamlined Rules, as modified by this arbitration provision. The Parties shall each participate in the selection of a neutral arbitrator pursuant to the Streamlined Rules. All remedies available to the Parties under applicable federal, state, or local laws shall remain available in arbitration. This arbitration agreement is reciprocal, and any election to arbitrate by one Party shall be final and binding on the other. If JAMS is unavailable to arbitrate a dispute or claim, You and Company agree to arbitrate using an alternative arbitral forum. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate. The language in this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with its fair meaning and not strictly for or against either Party. The arbitrator’s award will consist of a written statement stating the disposition of each Claim. The award will also provide a concise written statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. This arbitration provision does not limit any right you may have to file an action for a public injunction. This arbitration provision is severable. You acknowledge that without this provision, you would have had the right to sue in court with a jury trial.
4.4 Class Action Waiver: YOU AND THE COMPANY MAY ONLY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. BOTH YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE THAT THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL PROVISION, AND IF THIS WAIVER IS LIMITED, VOIDED, OR FOUND TO BE UNENFORCEABLE, THEN THE PARTIES’ CONTRACT TO ARBITRATE SHALL BE NULL AND VOID SUBJECT TO THE RIGHT TO APPEAL THE LIMITATION OR INVALIDATION OF THE WAIVER. UNLESS YOU AND THE COMPANY AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIMS.
4.5 Payment of Arbitration Fees: If You initiate arbitration against Company, you will be required to pay an initial fee of $250 (unless you qualify for a waiver), and all other arbitration costs (including any remaining JAMS Case Management Fees and all professional fees for the arbitrator’s services) shall be paid as determined by the arbitrator. If Company initiates arbitration against You, Company shall pay all costs associated with the arbitration. You and Company will each pay Your own attorney’s fees and costs unless an award of attorney’s fees is available under applicable statute.
4.6 Limited Exception for Small Claims Actions: Notwithstanding the Mandatory Arbitration provision above, You may assert a Claim on an individual basis in small claims court if the Claim qualifies for small claims jurisdiction, which, in California, is a claim of $10,000 or less, excluding costs, interest, and attorney’s fees to the extent available.
4.7 Governing Law: The parties agree that this Contract and any Claims shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act, federal arbitration law, and the laws of the State of California, USA, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. If You choose to pursue Claims in a small claims action, You agree that the small claim action must be filed and pursued only in the Small Claims Court for San Francisco County, California.
