9. Dispute and Arbitration; Class Action Waiver; Choice of Law
9.1 Arbitration Agreement; Class Waiver; Waiver of Trial by Jury
Please read this Section (“Arbitration Agreement”) carefully. It is part of your contract with IntelliHost and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
9.1.1 Informal Resolution
Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to a customer’s satisfaction by writing to our customer service department at [email protected]. In the unlikely event that our customer service department is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction, the terms of this Section 9.1 govern dispute resolution between us.
9.1.2 Applicability of Arbitration Agreement
All claims and disputes in connection with the Agreement or the use of any product or service provided by IntelliHost that cannot be resolved informally or in small claims court shall be resolved by binding arbitration on an individual basis under the terms of this Arbitration Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement applies to you and IntelliHost, and to any of our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third party vendors, subsidiaries, affiliates, agents, employees, predecessors in interest, successors, and assigns, as well as all authorized or unauthorized users or beneficiaries of services or goods provided under the Terms.
9.1.3 Arbitration Rules
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this dispute resolution provision. Arbitration shall be initiated through the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), an established alternative dispute resolution provider (“ADR Provider”) that offers arbitration as set forth in this section. If AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties shall agree to select an alternative ADR Provider. The rules of the ADR Provider shall govern all aspects of this arbitration, including but not limited to the method of initiating and/or demanding arbitration, except to the extent such rules are in conflict with the Terms (“Arbitration Rules”). The AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules governing the arbitration are available online at www.adr.org. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
9.1.4 Authority of Arbitrator
The arbitrator will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and IntelliHost, and the dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the Arbitration Rules, and the Terms. The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and IntelliHost.
9.1.5 Waiver of Jury Trial
The parties hereby waive their constitutional and statutory rights to go to court and have a trial in front of a judge or a jury, instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement. Arbitration procedures are typically more limited, more efficient and less costly than rules applicable in court and are subject to very limited review by a court. In the event any litigation should arise between you and IntelliHost in any state or federal court in a suit to vacate or enforce an arbitration award or otherwise, YOU AND IntelliHost WAIVE ALL RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL, instead electing that the dispute be resolved by a judge.
9.1.6 Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions
All claims and disputes within the scope of this arbitration agreement must be arbitrated or litigated on an individual basis and not on a class basis, and claims of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or litigated jointly or consolidated with those of any other customer or user. In the event that this subparagraph is deemed invalid or unenforceable neither you nor we are entitled to arbitration and instead claims and disputes shall be resolved in a court located in Los Angeles County, California.
9.1.7 30-Day Right to Opt Out
You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to the following address: IntelliHost, Attn: Legal Department, 1523 15th St, #200, Denver, CO 80202 within 30 days of purchasing a data product or subscription. If you send this notice, then the Arbitration Agreement will not apply to either party and you must litigate pursuant to subparagraph 9.1.12 below. If you do not send this notice, then you agree to be bound by this Arbitration Agreement.
9.1.8 Severability
If any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
9.1.9 Survival of Agreement
This Arbitration Agreement will survive the termination of your relationship with IntelliHost.
9.1.10 Modification
Notwithstanding any provision in these terms to the contrary, we agree that if IntelliHost makes any future material change to this Arbitration Agreement, it will not apply to any individual claim(s) that you had already provided notice of to IntelliHost.
9.1.11 Small Claims Court
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either you or IntelliHost may bring an individual action in small claims court.
9.1.12 Courts
In any circumstances where the foregoing Arbitration Agreement permits the parties to litigate in court, the parties hereby agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located in Los Angeles County, California for such purpose.
9.2 Choice of Law
This Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, applicable federal law, and the laws of the state of California, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules. Foreign laws do not apply.
