AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE AND CLASS ACTION AND JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL WAIVER.
PLEASE READ THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT (“ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”) CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH US AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROMUS AND INCLUDES A WAIVER OF CLASS ACTION AND JURY TRIAL.
Most concerns can be resolved quickly and to your satisfaction by contacting WeStock using the contact information below. You and we agree to discuss any concerns or disputes and attempt in good faith to reach a mutually beneficial outcome that avoids the expenses of arbitration or, where applicable, litigation (hereinafter, “Informal Dispute Resolution Process”). The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while you and we engage in the InformalDispute Resolution Process. In the unlikely event that the Customer Support is unable to resolve a complaint you may have to your satisfaction (or if WeStock has not been able to resolve aDispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally) within thirty days after initiation of this Informal Dispute Resolution Process, those Disputes will be resolved through binding arbitration or small claims court as described in this Section 15.
a. Arbitration Agreement
WE (YOU AND WESTOCK) EACH AGREE THAT ANY AND ALL CLAIMS OR DISPUTES ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY RELATED TO OR CONCERNING THE AGREEMENT, THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN US, OR OUR SERVICES WILLBE RESOLVED BY BINDING ARBITRATION OR IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT(DESCRIBED IN ), INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DISPUTES AND ANY THRESHOLD QUESTIONS OF THE ARBITRABILITY OF SUCH DISPUTE OR CLAIM EXCEPT THAT YOU OR WE MAY SEEK INJUNCTIVE OR EQUITABLE RELIEF IN A COURT OF PROPER JURISDICTION IF THE CLAIM RELATES TO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY INFRINGEMENT OR OTHER MISUSE OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS.
If the arbitration provision applies or you choose arbitration to resolve your disputes, then either you or WeStock may start arbitration proceedings. You must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to WeStock 37 Kensington Ave Norwood NJ 07648 to begin arbitration. The American Arbitration Association (AAA) will arbitrate all disputes. For claims of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for claims over $75,000, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Upon filing of the arbitration demand, if the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay AAA filing, administrative, hearing, and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from AAA, we will pay them for you if you complied with the Informal Dispute Resolution Process set forth above. In addition, we will reimburse all such AAA filing, administrative, hearing, and/or other fees for claims totaling less than $75,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous or you did not comply with the Informal Dispute Resolution process set forth above, except that if you have initiated the arbitration claim, you will still be required to pay the lesser of $250 or the maximum amount permitted under the AAA Rules for arbitration claims initiated by you. You are still responsible for all additional costs that you incur in the arbitration, including without limitation, fees for attorneys or expert witnesses. For claims that total more than $75,000, the payment of filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Commercial Arbitration Rules.The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of thisArbitration Agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and us. The arbitration proceeding 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 arbitral forum’s rules, and these 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.In addition, for claims under $75,000 as to which you followed the Informal Dispute ResolutionProcess before initiating arbitration, if the arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to a recovery of reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. Except for claims determined to be frivolous, WeStock agrees not to seek an award of attorneys’ fees in arbitration even if an award is otherwise available under applicable law. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
b. WAIVER
i. CLASS ACTION WAIVER
WE (YOU AND WESTOCK) EACH AGREE THAT ANY PROCEEDINGS, WHE THERIN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR AS A MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. If a court or arbitrator determines in an action between you and us that this Class Action Waiver is unenforceable, then the Arbitration Agreement will be void as to you.Accordingly, under the arbitration procedures outlined in this section, an arbitrator shall not combine or consolidate more than one party’s claims without the written consent of all affected parties to an arbitration proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, you and we agree that no dispute shall proceed by way of class arbitration without the written consent of all affected parties. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any part of this subsection’s limitations as to a given claim for relief, then that claim must be severed from the arbitration and brought in accordance with the Governing Law, Venue and Jurisdiction, and Court Proceedings described below.
ii. JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL WAIVER
YOU AND WE HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR AJURY. You and we are instead electing that all claims and disputes shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in the “Small Claims”subsection below. An arbitrator can award, on an individual basis, the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
a. Small Claims
You and WeStock retain the right to seek remedies in small claims court for disputes or claimswithin that court's jurisdiction, unless such action is transferred, removed or appealed to adifferent court. Any court having jurisdiction may enter judgment on the arbitrator's award.
b. Governing Law, Venue and Jurisdiction, and Court Proceedings
You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or videoconference, based on written submissions, in person in your hometown area (if you live in the United States), or at another mutually agreed upon location that is reasonably convenient to you. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Except to the extent preempted by or inconsistent with applicable federal law and as other wise described herein, this agreement is governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, with out regard to choice of law principles, conflicts of laws rules, or your actual state of residence. For any claim that proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, we each waive our right to a jury trial and any claims for punitive or exemplary damages. Unless otherwise specified herein, any disputes of a legal nature, whether a claim, complaint, arbitration demand, or otherwise that is not subject to the mandatory arbitration provision, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts located within the State of New Jersey, County of Bergen.
