ARBITRATION

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES AND IT LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF. To the fullest extent permitted by law, these terms of use, and any claim, dispute, action, cause of action, issue, or request for relief relating to these terms of use, this app, or the products, services or content available through this app (a “Claim”), will be governed by the laws of Illinois, U.S.A., without giving effect to any conflicts of laws principles that require the application of the laws of a different jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Claim will be resolved by binding arbitration under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), rather than in court (except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, and you or we may seek injunctive or equitable relief in court to stop infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights). The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to the enforcement of this agreement to arbitrate. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW WE EACH AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. This arbitration provision does not preclude you from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies. Such agencies can, if the law allows, seek relief against us on your behalf.  If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court (other than small claims court) rather than in arbitration you and Company each waive any right to a jury trial and irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located in the state of Illinois in connection with any such action. You and Company waive any objection based on lack of personal jurisdiction, place of residence, improper venue or forum non convenience in any such action.]
