Governing Law and Jurisdiction
Except as set forth in the Disputes; Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver Section immediately below, all matters relating to the Website and these Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising therefrom or related thereto (in each case, including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of California or any other jurisdiction).
Disputes; Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
Any disputes or claims relating in any way to your use of the Website, or to products or services sold or distributed by Company or through us, will be resolved by binding arbitration rather than in court, with the following exceptions:
- you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims apply; and
- in the event that the arbitration agreement in these Terms of Use is for any reason held to be unenforceable, any litigation against Company (except for small-claims court actions) may be commenced only in a federal or state court located within California, and we both consent to the jurisdiction of those courts for such purposes. You waive any and all objections to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts and to venue in such courts.
The arbitration agreement in these Terms of Use is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (the “FAA”), including its procedural provisions, in all respects.
This arbitration agreement is intended to be broadly interpreted and will survive termination of these Terms of Use.
Waiver and Severability
No waiver of by Company of any term or condition set forth in these Terms of Use shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or condition or a waiver of any other term or condition, and any failure of Company to assert a right or provision under these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
If any provision of these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.
