ARBITRATION AGREEMENT & WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS
You and Wafels & Dinges agree that, except as set forth below, we will resolve any disputes between us (including any disputes between you and a third-party agent of Wafels & Dinges) through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and We hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim (defined below). All controversies, claims, counterclaims, or other disputes arising between you and Us or you and a third-party agent of Wafels & Dinges (a "Claim") will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA Rules"). The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator. The arbitrator's decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The parties agree that the arbitration proceedings will be kept confidential and that the existence of the proceeding and any element of it (including, without limitation, any pleadings, briefs or other documents submitted or exchanged and any testimony or other oral submissions and awards) will not be disclosed beyond the arbitration proceedings, except as may lawfully be required in judicial proceedings relating to the arbitration, by applicable disclosure rules and regulations of securities regulatory authorities or other governmental agencies, or as specifically permitted by state law. The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement. However, the arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms including, but not limited to, a claim that all or any part of these Terms is void or voidable.
If you demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, We will pay as much of the administrative costs and arbitrator's fees required for the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the cost of the arbitration from being prohibitive. In the final award, the arbitrator may apportion the costs of arbitration and the compensation of the arbitrator among the parties in such amounts as the arbitrator deems appropriate.
Sole Exceptions To Arbitration
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of arbitration: (1) either you or We can bring an individual claim in small claims court in the United States of America consistent with any applicable jurisdictional and monetary limits that may apply, provided that it is brought and maintained as an individual claim; and (2) you agree that you or We may bring suit in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or Us from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. In addition, you and We retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms.
Jury Trial And Class Action Waiver
Neither you nor We may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and/or Our individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section shall continue in full force and effect. If for any reason a claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration you and We each waive any right to a jury trial. No waiver of any provision of this Section of the Terms will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in a writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of this Terms. The arbitrator may award in the arbitration the same damages or other relief available under applicable law, including injunctive and declaratory relief, as if the action were brought in court on an individual basis. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing or herein, the arbitrator may not issue a "public injunction" and any such "public injunction" may be awarded only by a federal or state court. If either party seeks a "public injunction," all other claims and prayers for relief must be adjudicated in arbitration first and any prayer or claim for a "public injunction" in federal or state court stayed until the arbitration is completed, after which the federal or state court can adjudicate the party's claim or prayer for "public injunctive relief." In doing so, the federal or state court is bound under principles of claim or issue preclusion by the decision of the arbitrator. This Section of the Terms will survive the termination of your relationship with Wafels & Dinges
THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM, THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN DISCOVERY EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN AAA RULES, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR WE WOULD HAVE IN COURT ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.
GOVERNING LAW
You and We agree that any claim between us involves commerce under, and is governed exclusively by, the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA") and federal law, and not by any state or local laws, or the laws of other countries, concerning or purporting to place limits on the availability or scope of arbitration or in any way imposing requirements beyond or inconsistent with those set forth in the FAA. Where otherwise applicable, the laws of the State of New York apply, without regard to its principles of conflicts of law.
TERMINATION
Your ability to access and use the Site remains in effect until terminated in accordance with these Terms. You agree that Wafels & Dinges, in its sole discretion, may terminate your account and your use of the Site and may remove and delete your User Generated Content if We believes that you have violated or acted inconsistently with these Terms or for any other reason. We also may in our sole discretion, and at any time, discontinue providing the Site, or any part thereof, with or without notice. You agree that any termination of your access to the Site may be effected without prior notice and you acknowledge and agree that We may bar any further access to the Site. Further, you agree that We will not be liable to you or any third-party for any termination of access to the Site.
The provisions of the sections of the Terms entitled ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATIONS, INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY, YOUR USE OF THE SITE, PROHIBITED USES, USER GENERATED CONTENT, USE OF SOCIAL MEDIA TAGS, RISK OF LOSS, RELIANCE ON INFORMATION POSTED, INDEMNITY, DISCLAIMER & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, ARBITRATION AGREEMENT & WAIVER OF CERTAIN RIGHTS, GOVERNING LAW, together with and any other rights and obligations which by their nature are reasonably intended to survive such termination, will survive any termination of these Terms.
