Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. The laws of the State of Florida shall govern these Terms and Conditions.  If you have any dispute under these Terms and Conditions or otherwise in connection with our Site, you agree to first try to resolve the dispute informally by notifying us of your concern, and you and we agree to attempt in good faith to resolve any such dispute. While we will make reasonable efforts to resolve any disagreements you may have, if these efforts fail, you agree that all claims, disputes or controversies against us or our parent company, subsidiaries, affiliates, suppliers, and their respective employees, officers, directors, successors, agents and assigns (collectively, “Released Parties”) arising under these Terms and Conditions or relating to our Site (collectively, “Claims”) are subject to fixed and binding arbitration, no matter what legal theory they are based on or what remedy (damages, or injunctive or declaratory relief) they seek.  This includes Claims based on contract, tort (including intentional tort), fraud, agency, negligence, statutory or regulatory provisions, or any other sources of law; Claims made as counterclaims, cross-claims, third-party claims, interpleaders or otherwise; and Claims made independently or with other claims.

YOU AND WE UNDERSTAND AND AGREE TO ARBITRATE ALL CLAIMS, AND YOU AND WE ARE WAIVING ALL RIGHTS TO RESOLVE ANY CLAIMS BEFORE A JUDGE AND JURY IN A COURT OF LAW. THIS MEANS THAT THE CLAIM WILL BE DECIDED BY AN ARBITRATOR, AND NOT BY A JUDGE OR JURY. COURT REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATION AWARD WILL BE VERY LIMITED. THE ARBITRATOR CAN AWARD ANY DAMAGES OR RELIEF ON YOUR INDIVIDUAL CLAIM THAT A COURT OF LAW COULD UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, PROVIDED, HOWEVER, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE ARBITRATOR IS NOT EMPOWERED TO AWARD ANY INCIDENTAL, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES. JUDGMENT ON THE AWARD RENDERED BY THE ARBITRATOR MAY BE ENTERED IN ANY COURT HAVING JURISDICTION HEREOF.

In addition, you agree that any and all Claims will be arbitrated on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff, class representative, member of a putative class, or otherwise on behalf of others in any proposed class, collective, consolidated or representative proceeding, and the arbitrator may award relief only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision shall not prevent either party from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction, or statutory injunctive relief in its favor solely on the grounds that such relief would also have an effect on the general public.  

The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS or its successor or, if no longer in existence, another nationally-recognized administrator, and conducted in accordance with its comprehensive arbitration rules then in effect (the “Rules”).  Those Rules may limit the discovery available to you or us.  The seat of the arbitration shall be in Fort Lauderdale, Florida or at a different location to which you and we agree in writing.  The arbitration shall be conducted as expeditiously and economically as reasonably practicable. Payment of all filing, administration, arbitrator and/or mediator fees ("Fees") will be governed by JAMS rules.

A single, neutral arbitrator will resolve Claims. The arbitrator will be either a lawyer with at least fifteen (15) years’ experience or a retired or former judge, selected in accordance with JAMS rules.  If all parties to the dispute do not agree upon the arbitrator within twenty (20) days after commencement of the arbitration, then the arbitrator shall be appointed by the administrator pursuant to the Rules. The arbitrator will take reasonable steps to protect your account information and other confidential information if requested to do so by you or us provided the discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute shall be permitted. The arbitrator shall issue a written award consisting of a written statement stating the disposition of each claim and include a concise written statement of the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based (the “Award”). The arbitrator’s Award is final and binding on the parties unless you or we appeal it in writing to the arbitration firm within fifteen (15) days of notice of the Award. Any Claim you have with respect to these Terms and Conditions or our Site must be commenced within one (1) year after the Claim arises, or such Claim is forever waived by you.

You and we further agree that an Award and any judgment confirming it only applies to the arbitration in which it was awarded and cannot be used in any other proceeding except to enforce the Award itself and any post-arbitration action seeking to enforce an arbitration award or action seeking equitable or injunctive relief shall be brought exclusively in state and federal courts located in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  For any Claims that are not subject to arbitration, if any: (a) the exclusive jurisdiction and venue for proceedings involving Claims shall be the courts of competent jurisdiction sitting within Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and the parties hereby waive any argument that any such court does not have personal jurisdiction or is not appropriate or convenient; and (b) you and we waive any and all rights to trial by jury with respect to any such Claims.

Questions:  Should you have any questions regarding these Terms and Conditions, you may contact us at support@noumena.pro.
