11. Mandatory Arbitration and Class Action Waiver
11.1 please read these arbitration and class action waiver provisions carefully to understand your rights. Except where prohibited by law, you agree that any claim that you may have in the future must be resolved through final and binding confidential arbitration. You acknowledge and agree that you are waiving the right to a trial by jury. The rights that you would have if you went to court, such as discovery or the right to appeal, may be more limited or may not exist. You agree that you may only bring a claim in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff (lead or otherwise) or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. You further agree that the arbitrator may not consolidate proceedings or claims or otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages) and must follow these terms as a court would.
11.2 If you have a complaint, dispute, or controversy, you agree to first contact us at info@myospet.com to attempt to resolve the dispute or controversy informally. You and MYOS PET agree that we will resolve any disputes between us that cannot be resolved through such informal process or through negotiation within 120 days through binding and final arbitration instead of through court proceedings. You and MYOS PET hereby waive any right to a jury trial of any Claim (defined below). All controversies, claims, counterclaims, and other disputes arising between you and MYOS PET relating to the Giveaway, these Terms, the MYOS PET Privacy Policy, and/or any other aspect of your relationship with MYOSPET (each a Claim) shall be submitted for binding arbitration in accordance with the Rules of the American Arbitration Association, Consumer Arbitration Rules ("AAA Rules"). The AAA’s Rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. The arbitrator shall be selected by agreement of the parties or, if the parties cannot agree, chosen in accordance with the Rules of the AAA. The arbitration will be heard and determined by a single arbitrator in the English language in New Jersey or telephonically. The arbitrator’s decision in any such arbitration will be final and binding upon the parties and may be enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, construction, validity, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms, or this arbitration provision, and any other terms incorporated by reference into these Terms. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether any dispute is arbitrable.
Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA’s Rules. In all other respects, the parties shall each pay their own additional fees, costs, and expenses, including, but not limited to, those for any attorneys, experts, documents, and witnesses. This arbitration agreement does not preclude you or MYOS PET from seeking action by federal, state, or local government agencies. You and MYOS PET also have the right to bring qualifying claims in small claims court. In addition, you and MYOS PET retain the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for provisional relief, including pre-arbitral attachments or preliminary injunctions, and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with these Terms, nor a waiver of the right to have disputes submitted to arbitration as provided in these Terms.
The arbitrator shall follow the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16, as amended. In all other respects, the substantive law of the State of New Jersey shall apply, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.
Neither you nor MYOSPET may act as a class representative or private attorney general, nor participate as a member of a class of claimants, with respect to any Claim. Claims may not be arbitrated on a class or representative basis. The arbitrator can decide only your and MYOSPET’s individual Claims. The arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of other persons or parties who may be similarly situated.
If any provision of this Section is found to be invalid or unenforceable, then that specific provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, but the remainder of this Section shall continue in full force and effect. No waiver of any provision of this Section of the Terms will be effective or enforceable unless recorded in writing signed by the party waiving such a right or requirement. Such a waiver shall not waive or affect any other portion of the Terms.
If any claim or dispute is found by the arbitrator to be excluded from this arbitration agreement above, the parties agree that any such claim or dispute shall be exclusively brought in and decided by the state or federal courts located in New Jersey.
This section of the Terms will survive the termination of your relationship with MYOSPET.
11.3 30 day right to opt-out. You have the right to opt-out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth in this section of these terms by sending written notice of your decision to opt-out by emailing us at info@myospet.com. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of accepting these terms or entering the giveaway, whichever is earlier, otherwise you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of those sections. If you opt-out of these arbitration provisions, we also will not be bound by them.
12. Severability
If any term of provision or these Terms is found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific term or provision shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed, and the remainder of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect.
