WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION.

The following processes shall govern the arbitration process:

  • Before commencing an arbitration, you agree to inform us of the nature of the claim and the relief you seek by sending an email to [email protected] so stating.
  • Within seven (7) business days of receiving the email, we will contact you and thereafter you and we will attempt to resolve the claim or issue in a satisfactory way.
  • If, following these attempts at exploring a resolution, you intend to proceed with an arbitration claim, you and we will seek to reach an agreement on the selection of an arbitrator to hear and decide the dispute and how it will be heard, including whether to submit the dispute to the arbitrator only in written form, by proceedings conducted via video or in-person.
