Information on JAMS and how to start arbitration can be found at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 800-352-5267. For purposes of this section, these Terms of Use and related transactions will be subject to and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. sec. 1-16 (FAA). To the extent state law applies to any portion of a proceeding brought by you or us, the applicable law will be the law of the state of your residence, as determined based on your shipping address on file with Our Site. At your election, the arbitration will take place in the county in which you reside or, if you choose, by telephone or based on the parties’ written submissions. Notwithstanding the above, you or We can bring any individual claim in small claims court consistent with the jurisdictional limitations of such court.
Prior to initiating any arbitration, the initiating party will give the other party at least 60-days' advanced written notice of its intent to file for arbitration. We will provide such notice by e-mail to your e-mail address on file with Us and you must provide such notice by e-mail to info@krusefeed.com. During such 60-day notice period, the parties will endeavor to settle amicably by mutual discussions any Covered Disputes. Failing such amicable settlement and expiration of the notice period, either party may initiate arbitration. The arbitrator will have the power to grant whatever individual relief would be available in court under law or in equity and any award of the arbitrator(s) will be final and binding on each of the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. This provision is a precondition to any arbitration demand.
WE AND YOU AGREE THAT ANY COVERED DISPUTE HEREUNDER WILL BE SUBMITTED TO ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY. NEITHER WE NOR YOU ARE ENTITLED TO ARBITRATE ANY COVERED DISPUTE AS A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY ACTION AND THE ARBITRATOR(S) WILL HAVE NO AUTHORITY TO PROCEED ON A CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL BASIS. If any provision of the agreement to arbitrate in this section is found unenforceable, the unenforceable provision will be severed and the remaining arbitration terms will be enforced (but in no case will there be a class, representative or private attorney general arbitration).
Notwithstanding any provision in these terms to the contrary, both parties agree that if We make any future material change to this dispute resolution provision, it will not apply to any individual claim(s) that you had already provided notice to Us. In the event that this arbitration agreement does not apply to a given dispute, then the parties agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in Orange County, California to resolve such claims.
