DISPUTE RESOLUTION; INFORMATION RESOLUTION AND FORMAL RESOLUTION BY ARBITRATION / CLASS ACTION WAIVER
In order to expedite and control the cost of disputes, you and Company agree that any legal or equitable claim relating to the use of the Site or Services (referred to as a “Claim”) will be resolved as follows:
Informal Resolution
You and Company will first attempt to resolve any Claim informally for a period of thirty (30) days after Company’s receipt of written notice from you regarding any potential dispute. In the event that any dispute between Company and you arises out of or relates to: (i) these Terms; (ii) the Site or Services; or (iii) your account through the Site or Services, you and we agree to try to promptly resolve any such dispute informally within such 30-day period. You must send the written notice describing the dispute to legal@frankandeileen.com
Formal Resolution by Arbitration / Class Action Waiver
READ THE FOLLOWING ARBITRATION PROVISION CAREFULLY, IT LIMITS YOUR RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION. You agree that any dispute, controversy or Claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, your use of the Site or Services, or the purchase of any products from the Site, or the determination of the scope or applicability of arbitration shall be governed as set forth below.
If you and Company cannot resolve a Claim informally, any Claim asserted by either party will be resolved only by binding arbitration (“Arbitration”). By agreeing to Arbitration, both you and Company understand and agree that all processes, such as a court action or administrative proceeding, to settle disputes shall be decided by a single arbitrator and that you are waiving your rights to maintain other available resolution processes, such as a court action or administrative proceeding, to settle disputes. Instead of suing in court, both you and Company each agree to settle disputes (except certain small claims as set forth below) only by Arbitration.
ARBITRATION MEANS THAT YOU WAVE YOUR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL.
The rules in Arbitration are different. There is no judge or jury, and review is limited, but an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief and must honor the same limitations stated in these Terms as a court would. The Arbitration will be conducted under the American Arbitration Association Consumer Arbitration Rules (referred to as the “AAA Rules”) and under the rules set forth in these Terms. If there is a conflict between AAA Rules and the rules set forth in these Terms, the rules set forth in these Terms will govern. In Arbitration you may seek any and all remedies otherwise available to you pursuant to the law of the governing jurisdiction. If you decide to initiate Arbitration, Company agrees to pay the Arbitration initiation fee and any additional required deposit required by AAA to initiate your Arbitration. You and Company agree to pay equally the costs of the Arbitration proceedings, provided however, that if you are a consumer you shall not be required to pay more than $250.00 of the fees or such higher amount as the AAA Rules may later prescribe. All other fees, such as attorneys’ fees and expenses of travel to the Arbitration, will be paid in accordance with AAA Rules. The arbitration will be held at a location in Los Angeles, California, if possible, unless you and Company both agree to another location or telephonic Arbitration. To initiate Arbitration, you or Company must do the following things:
- Write a demand for Arbitration. The demand must include a description of the Claim and the amount of damages sought to be recovered. You can file a Demand for Arbitration at https://www.adr.org/.
- Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to the other party. Special rules in the Arbitration Proceeding.
- Except for errors of law, the arbitrator’s decision is final and binding on all parties and may be enforced in any court that has jurisdiction.
- Neither you nor Company shall be entitled to join or consolidate claims in Arbitration by or against other individuals or entities or arbitrate any claim as a representative member of a class or in a private attorney general capacity.
THIS MEANS THAT YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO INITIATE OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS OR CONSOLIDATED ACTION WHATSOEVER.
Accordingly, you and Company agree that the AAA Class Action Rules do not apply to our Arbitration. A court may sever any portion of this dispute resolution provision if it finds such provision unenforceable, except for the prohibition on class, representative and private attorney general arbitrations. Notwithstanding the obligation to arbitrate all Claims under these Terms, you may assert an individual Claim in small claims court in lieu of Arbitration.
LIMITED TIME TO FILE CLAIMS
You agree that you will assert any Claim arising out of your use of any Services or the purchase of any product from this Services, if applicable, within one (1) year after the Claim arises, or such claim will be barred.
ASSIGNMENT
The Company may assign these Terms of Service at any time to a subsidiary or parent company or to a successor to its business as part of a merger or sale of substantially all of its assets. You may not assign or transfer these Terms of Service.
SEVERABILITY
If any provision of this Terms of Service is held to be unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions will be unaffected and remain in full force and effect.
