Choice of law and arbitration

  1. Please read the following section carefully because it requires the user to arbitrate disputes with the provider and it limits the manner in which the user can seek relief. 17.2 If any dispute, controversy or claim arises out of or in connection with these Terms and Conditions, including any question regarding their existence, validity, interpretation, breach or termination (“Dispute”), it shall be referred, upon written notice given by one party to the other party, to finally resolve such Dispute by arbitration pursuant to the rules of the London Court of International Arbitration, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into these Terms and Conditions. 17.3 Arbitration prevents the user from suing in court or from having a jury trial. 17.4 The tribunal shall consist of a single arbitrator nominated by the Provider. 17.5 The seat of arbitration shall be London, England. 17.6 The language of the arbitration shall be English. 17.7 Unless otherwise ordered by the arbitrator, the parties shall bear the costs of the arbitrator, the arbitration venue and the recording of the proceedings in equal proportions and shall otherwise be responsible for their own costs. 17.8 Any dispute between the parties will be governed by these Terms and Conditions and the laws of England and Wales, without giving effect to any conflict of laws principles that may provide for the application of the law of another jurisdiction. 17.9 Whether the dispute is heard in arbitration or in court, the user and provider will not commence against the other a class action, class arbitration or representative action or proceeding. 17.10 The arbitrator, the Provider, and the User will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the Dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.17.11 Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms and Conditions or the Website or Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that the User and the Provider will not have the right to assert the claim. 17.12 If any portion of this section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason: (1) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms and Conditions; (2) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this section or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this section; and (3) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. 17.13 Further, if any part of this section is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this section will be enforceable.
